show that the Democracy under Mr.
Wilson is "over-pledged' and cannot

Mount Royal Once Active Volcano.
In the work on the Canadian North

found that Mount Royal, under which
the line will pass. was at one time
either an active volcano or was made
by lava being forced up through the

An interesting proof OF the fact that
at one time a great glacier flowed
from the Laurentian mountains to the

DEFEAT IS TRAGEDY
FOR MILDLY ELEVEN
Loss to West Point Would Be
Calamity, and Coaches Work
Against 0verconfidence.

ANNAPOLIS. Md, Nov. 2l.-The re-
lations of psychology and football are
the thing indicated by the efforts which
to bring about in the players the exact
frame of mind which they believe to be
most likely to lead to the best work by
their charges and a consequent victory
over the Army team. Overconfidence is
the bugbear here. and every effort is
being made to have the team men feel
that victory is by no meaTts certain, and
will only be secured by the most des-
perate but at the same time controlled
playing when the Army lads are en-
COuntered on the Polo Grounds.
Starting the season with nine of the
players who were members of the team
that defeated West Point last year and
playing the highest class Of football all
through the season, II is difficult to
make any member of the team believe
that West Point has a chance to win
this year. and this is precisely the state
OF feeling that the coaches have deter
mined to overcome.
Several nights this week Head Coach
Howard and Field Coach Jim Reilly
have had the most serious talks with
the team and one evening Jack Gates,
former field coach, was called in for the
same purpose The burden Of all the
finaI game is by no means a certainty,
and each player must get the idea out
of his mind The team can and should
win, they are told, but victory will not
be the result If the players think MOTH
ing can whip them.
a defeat this year will be regarded as
a tragedy at the Naval Academy. No
midshipman now in the academy hts
ever experienced the feeling of having
mis- team defeated by West Point, and
the remarkable set of athletes in the
graduating class who have been the
buIwark of the team in two victories
would be heart-broken if the Army won
IN their final year OF playing for the
Navy. Two members of the team,
Brown and Gilchrist. have played in
three winning contests over the Army.
EIght played two years ago and nine
last season. After such history of
lighting for the Navy, everyone here
feels that these players are entitled 10
