Beale gavo a resume | of plans for the coming year and re- ports of the officers were rond, Miss Beale's annual report follows: | *To the Directors of the Welfare As-| soctetion of New Britain “President Harding, during the j summer, spoke words of pralse an cordlal greeting to a great group of fve thousand wsocial workers where nearly every natlon in the world was represented, saying: ‘Public authori- ties and represcntatives of private agencles engaged in the organized ef- fort to control and check disease, poverty, and causes of human mis- fortune, arc contributing substantial- 1y to a hetter citizenship and a better America.' *Soclal workers, with their enthu- slasm for the work, with their knowl-| edge of what can be done and an as- surity of the successful outcome of their plans, are wonderfully optimis- tic as they f the future. Social workers represent a group of advance | thinkers—pioneers filled with hope| and courage for the s ahead, ready to acknowledge their limita- tions, to conserve time and energy and money, and to determine how the Ideals of social welfare slowly evolved from long years of experience may still further make its influence felt and reduce to the utmost the necessity for relief and correction. “We are but on the thrgshold of a preveutive program—prevention—not cure, i# the keynote of social service. Continued patching and attempts to/ cure poverty, illness or crime, have been tound to be only temporary, ex- pensive and uncertain. The preven- tlon of such evils has been @roven to be much less expensive, much quick- er, more complete and certain as to results. Where better can such pre- vention begin than with the family in| the home? | To constantly develop| normal family life, to build up strong- | er home ties, to minister to ,the|r' needs—this .is the. work of the Wel- fare association. ‘““With no great emergency, as an epidemic, to meet, with no lack of em- ployment, with the suffering and de- dression following the war a thing of the past, the work of the Welfare as- sociation is readjusting itself to the task of dealing with family problems, m:‘ aid when necessary in order to tter solve the difficulties too com- pléx for those of physical and mental abnormal make-up, of settling mis- iderstandings, of acting as mediator and a clearing house for many other . organizations, of being called upon to answer a variety of requests and inquiries. In many homes in the past year the need was not for financial help but for a real friend who would stay by in time of troyble, who would #tve kind and sympathetic service| over a time when just such intelligent guidance was sorely needed to place back in a normal standing that dis- organized group, to start the home life on toward a complete self-re-, liance. x “As a family service society the Welfare association can render no more important service to .the com- | munity than saving the homes and thus saving the children. The chil- dren in our homes will in the near| future be leaders in our city. The| {over estimated, /& wholesorneness nity 2" ]o‘;\:lsi:ss Beale's statistical report fol.
