The Keu. DR.. Dauid James BurreU

mons nave been appearing in pamphlet
form.
His writing is as forceful as his
preaching. His sermons "read we'll"
Two of Dr. Burrcll's brothers en-
tered the ministry. One is pastor of a
large church in Brooklyn; another
held pastorate in the Oranges. DR..
David Burrell, however, is the most
distinguished of the three. His attain
ments have won wide recognition. In
1909 he was elected president of the
the World Holding the Presbyterian
System.
He is a pastor of the old school, a
sympathetic listener to the stories of
his peoples troubles, rare confidant,
patient helper Even as he has kept
his church from entering any of the
movements of the new day. he has
kept his own preaching pitched in a
different key from that of most of the
present-day preachers.
What's Wrong With Church?
At George Whitfield anniversary
service once he said: at is getting
away from Whitfelds doctrines that is
making the newspapers ask What IS
the matter with the Church?' There
will be no answer till the old-fashioned
answer comes back. 1t is the foolish
ness of preaching that is going to save
sthe world, not the preaching of foolish
ness Whitfield was mad-mad with n
frenzy for souls. We will never get
right till we get back to the whole
gospel of Christ as he did,
Dr.. Burrell once was in trouble with
the legislative council of the Re-
formed Church. The council said he
had violated certain of its rules about
preaching, rules which insisted that
doctrinal discourscs should be given
in regular order, and that each Sun
day some specific allusion to the pro-
