Excerpt from Positions in Social Work: A Study of the Number, Salaries, Experience and Qualifications of Professional Workers in Unofficial Social Agencies in New York City, Based Upon an Investigation Made by Florence Woolston for the New York School of Philanthropy and the Intercollegiate Bu The social spirit in America has expressed itself variously as organized charity, housing and public health movements, settle ments, municipal and social research, experiments with new criminal procedure and prison reform, playgrounds and recreation centers, religious and medical social service, industrial com missions and public welfare departments. These diversified and yet, in essential aim and motive, closely allied activities, have given rise to a new vocation, to a profession in the making. This calling, from the very nature of the work to be done in it, and from the character of its leaders, makes an extraordinary appeal to the missionary spirit of the young men and women in and out of the universities Who have seen the vision of a new social order in which poverty, crime and disease, if not wholly abolished, will certainly be vastly diminished, and will not exist, at any rate, as the result of social neglect, as the result of bad traditions which enlightenment can end, or of obsolete institutions which the laws can change.
