Description
Henry Atkinson wrote Men and Things, published in New York in 1918 by the Missionary Education Movement. Atkinson served as secretary of the social service department of the Congregational churches. The book is a study text for mission classes, with printed blanks at the front for enrolling a class and ordering books.
A photograph of workers cutting steel for ships with gigantic shears opens the argument. Its caption calls such workers the servants of civilization, without whom modern trade could not run. The book turns church readers toward the world of labor and industry as a field of Christian duty. Study questions and lists of mission boards support group use. It shows how the social gospel entered the Sunday schools and mission circles of its day.
