1932

The majesty of the sea the power of the sun the beauty of the staspangled sky—these were highly inspiring and he began to worship nature. [...] From the First Stage of Savgery of the most primitive troglodytes down to the dawnings of history the period of time though conjectural is considered to cover at least one hundred thousand years on the basis of the researches of students of Palaeontology and Pre-historic Archeology. [...] The weapons of warfare of this stage—the spear the bow and arrow the sword the helmet and the steel-axe of the Greeks and the Romans for example—were but elaboration of the weapons of iron and chipped flint of Barbarism and Savagery.
