Backgrounds For Social Workers
The desire to give to the public this little volume had its origin in the reading of the many articles written on such subjects as Marriage, Divorce, and Immorality, which appeared some years ago when the Royal Divorce Commission of England was sitting, and which desire then resulted in an article by the author, appearing in the Westminster Review of August, 1913.

In 1916 the Dallas School of Civics and Philanthropy, founded by Mr. Elmer Scott and placed under the superintendence of Miss Flora Saylor, asked the author to deliver a series of three lectures on "The Family" from the historical viewpoint, which three lectures form three chapters of this book. Two other chapters have already appeared, one each in the University of Dallas Quarterly and the University of Dallas Bulletin. Especial thanks are due the Reverend Peter P. Finney, CM., Ph.D., professor of philosophy in the University of Dallas, for reading the entire manuscript and offering many valuable suggestions. As the book is written with a purpose, I have not hesitated to borrow anywhere and everywhere, and to quote profusely if it seemed valuable that this should be done. Credit has been given wherever another's work has been used and, quite naturally, thanks are extended to all these, and to the Dallas School of Civics and Philanthropy which revived so much of the author's interest in the things of which this book treats.
