A Genuine Revival Trims Personal Lamps

By Editor

Few men are more given to hitting the nail on the head, and so putting the fact that everybody can see how it was hit, than our friend, Rev. Theodore L. Cuyler, of Brooklyn. "What we need," he says, "is not the blaze of a few powerful electric lights in certain conspicuous places, but the steady shining of every lamp in the whole church of Christ over the land. Brooklyn is not lighted by two or three calcium-burners in its public squares, but by innumerable lamps distributed into every street and alley. A genuine revival means a trimming of personal lamps."
