Moderate Force Enough.


Before the advent Of the modern
gun the common type of fortress con-
struction was in the form of an in
closed work. capable of defence against
land attack by its own garrison. but
with the advent of the modern gun and
the construction of works involving
great outlay of money insufficient at
tention was given TO the problem of
their defence from land attack. and. rs
a result. many of them are so situated
and constructed as to Ice liable to sue
cessful attack by even moderate forces
landing from ships.
With a view to correcting this de-
feet. lines Of land defence works have
been laid out, and necessary instruc-
tons prepared for their prompt con-
struction in case of threatened war.
In future construction il is believed
that much more attention will be de-
voted 10 making each individual group
Of works reasonably secure against
land attack. even though unsupported
by troops other than its own garrison
Certainly the construction should be Of
such type as 10 enable defence Suf-
ficiently long to permit arrival IF as
sistance from coast guard troops
But. after all, this whole question
brings up very forcibly the folly of
depending upon .ortrcsses alone Their
usefulness is very much restricted
unless there is an adequate mobile
army The real purpose of sen coast
defences is 10 prevent hostile fleets
bombardinc cities behind them. occu-
pying the harbors whose entrances they
are designed to close, or bomhardns
fleets taking refuge I'm these harborS.
Their guns are of heavy type neces-
sarily too heavy in most instances Tor

10 fight armored ships. Their Hanks
and rears must Zoe protected by mo-
bile troops. as must the cities when
lie behind them. in case the enemy de-

today was formally usLered in in the
east. These two games are the first

country, the bis colleges of the west,
ly 'he western conference agreement
having postponed even practice until
today.
Dopesters conceded that Carlisle
should have little trouble with Al

picked by Coach Glenn Warner as be-
ing about the right size on which to
try out his husky, shifty redskins.
While the Maine-Boston college game
down east was expected to develop in
to a dyed-in-t he-wool battle, as meet
ings between these two elevens always
are, the result was not of great inn
portance except in the immediate
neighborhood in which the teams arc
located.
