[RAPS METHODS OE' CHARITY WORKERS Clergyman Deplores “Flash-in- ihe-Pan” System of Help- ing Poor. I Methods and results of professional and volunteer charity workers were contrasted in an address by the Rev. John J. Moment at a meeting of the Conference of Friendly Visitors at the Public Library yesterday. That it has been customary for each do assume a critical attitude towards the other was asserted by the speaker, who spoke from the stand- point of both in turn, classing him- self, howdvef, as unprofessional as a charity worker. The latter feared a lack of personal sympathy in the former and a me- chanical performance of their duties, he suggested. Much of the charity of church workers he characterized S as of the ‘flash-in-the-pan” type without lasting value. Real injury, I he pointed out, was often done to poor 9 families by unprepared workers enter- I jng these homes without any definite I plan. The bestowal of Thanksgiving E| tond Christmas dinners, unaccom- m jpanied by any effort to restore to M social efficiency the family thus tem- pi porarily aided, he classed among in- I Jurlous forms of charity.
