Excerpt from The Gospel of the Kingdom, Vol. 7: January, 1915

Thus lives were lost as the direct result of nineteen wars, an average of lives to a war. And wars are growing more costly in life. The Russo Japanese war, a comparatively short one, cost lives - more than twice the average loss by war through the century.

The present war will undoubtedly be the most costly in life ever fought. Who shall count the indirect human cost? How many men have carried through life a living death as the result of wars?
