matMrJ 'SdiGOI' Plaaa for BeM&t Briclp llrs. James Fentress spoke to the senior girls of New Trier Hig!t school Fridaf, March 9, on "The Need for Socia Workers." , The beginning of social welfare came because of thought for others, consideration, and the giving to those who needed help, she said, but it was .aon found that such generous aid usually did nQt help the persons, but made them confirmed paupers. So, instead of just giving, the method changed to helping the persons to help themselves. Today social welfare workers study · the case. They are given a technical ~ducation in the training for social workers-poverty, its causes, what will help it, non-employment, and vagabonds. This is a great change in the tactics of the social worker. To qualify for such a job a belief in the job is necessary. The worker must . see the problem, study it, and seek for the remedy. Faith in the given problem is a great asset in applying the remedy. · Another very important and necessary thing for the social worker is to Jearn to think of and see her problem objectively, and not allow her emotions to put herself in the place of one of the persons she is trying to help. She is not to make confirmed paupers or idlers of her people, but educate them to higher surroundings. Mrs. Fentress concluded her most interesting and beneficial talk by saying that even if none of those in her audience became social workers, and hoped that at least they would have the right attitude toward social work.
