Excerpt from The Social Outlook: Papers on Social Problems Read at the Second Oxford Conference of the Wesleyan Methodist Union for Social Service, Easter, 1910

From March 29 to April 1, 19 10, the Wesleyan Methodist Union for Social Service held its second Easter Conference in the Wesley Memorial Church, Oxford.

The present volume incorporates most of the papers read and addresses given at the Conference. For the convenience of the general reader the papers and ad dresses have been regrouped in four sections - viz. The State and the Worker,' 'destitution,' 'the Rebuilding of Society,' and The Church and Social Service.' The objects of the Wesleyan Methodist Union for Social Service - which was formed in loos - are 'the collection and study of social facts, the pursuit of social service, and the discussion of social problems and theories from the Christian standpoint, with the view to educate public Opinion and secure improvement in the conditions of life. Membership does not commit any one to the support of any political party or social theory, or to the opinion of any individual member.'
