Synopsis

Excerpt from Life and Light for Woman, Vol. 48: May 1918

But if you are a Christian tourist, interested not in the spice of adventure that attaches to seeing sordid things at long range, but interested in the human stories that abound there and in the human beings who are the actors in those stories, then go not with the police, but with Mrs. Bridgman or Miss Weir, as they make their round of friendly visits, for those same slums are their parish. If any one can go with them and come back without a burden on his heart for these poor lost sheep, and without a glow of enthusiasm for the rescue work that is being done, and without a profound admiration for the spirit of those two women who carry the tender, winning confidence of the Saviour himself into conditions as discouraging as any Chris tian worker ever has to face - then the visitor must have a verv peculiar kind of mechanism in the place where his heart belongs.
