Telephones as Fishing instruments.
 Fish when they swim make a noise, md this can be detected by the teie- phone. according to the following: Most of us have watched with interest he movements of shoals of fish be- heath the surface of the sea or of g ake, but few will have associated with those movements the idea of ioise. Nevertheless, such movements 10 make noise, and Norwegian fish srmen, it Is said, have taken adyan- haze of that fact to devise an ar- rangenent to assist them in detecting and locating fish at considerable depths. They lower a microphone by means of a wire from their boat into the water, the other end of the wire being connected with telephone re- ceiver on the boat. As the latter slowly proceeds on her course in search of haul an operator keeps the receiver of the telephone to his ear and. once he has learned his task he can tell instantly when d shoal of fish is being approached.
