in school some feet below the surface
and were in ali probability making the
sounds by striking their pharyngeai teeth
together. The sound produced by these
flsh have often mad singular effect up
on superstiJious seamen, who saw omens
in the weird noises.
Anyone who has slept in small boat
with his ears few inches from the
water has heard strange cracking sounds
sometimes. They appeared like a series
of cracks or electric shocks, but what
creatures produce the noise no one seems
to know.
One of the most remarkable OF all the
sound producing fishes is found in China

navy. He was engaged In some special
work at the entrance OF a river and came
to anchor one night In shallow water
Presently strange sounds began to be
heard coming up from the bottom. They
were described as resembling the changing
Of bells and the beating of drums, The
men were demoralized and attributed the
noises to spirits, Il being said that a crew
OF pirates had gene down there. but the
officers were convinced that the noise
was caused by some sea animals. and
investigation showed that 1t came from
school Of fish that made the sounds By
clapping their teeth together.
The great Australian lung fish, SO call

by its gills and when out by its air biad-

men. The fish. which attalns a length

certain village In France was once thrown
into CONSERVATION by the cries which
were heard from the sea at night and
when those who mustered up sufficient
courage reached the water they found a
school of whales had stranded and were
uttering cries.
Whether the noises produced by fishes
can be considered as language is e.
subject for debate. but they may well be
an expression of the emotions and have
some meaning. either as a call one in
