We are living in one of the great transition periods In history, when the old is passing away and the new is taking its place. Dr. John Watson, Ian McLaren, as we know him best, has expressed his belief that we are on the eve of a great revival, and that it will be primarily a social revival, inspired by the religious spirit What If God be calling on Men, he asks, "not to build more churches, but to secure better and purer homes for hi people? To cleanse communities of liquor saloon and haunta of vice? To see that every man for whom Chrlat died should have a fair chance to do honest work with honest pay. and to have a home where he can live In decency with his wife and children? May not these be the moat efficient means to bring men into conscious fellowship Dr. Joslah Strong agrees with God? with Dr. Watson, and says, It Is quite obvious that the great questions peculiar to that time are social." And I ask If it be not also possible that God means that we shall hear the cry of the children In the marts of trade, as well as the cry of the children In the slums; that we shall reach out the helping hand to those crushed un .
