My Word for 1t
By Fronk Colby
Saturday Roll Call.

McWllllamS: am q teacher and
am unable to explain to my class
the correct pronunciation of the
Norwegian word ford. Will you
please make it clear for my STU
dents?-W. P. B.
Answer-First, I recommend the
customary English spelling: ford
To pronounce it correctly. remember
that the 'i' (also the 81" of fjorO
has the sound OF the consonant ~"
as in yes, your. The 20" is either
"oh" or "aw." First choice: fyohrd 1;
second choice: fyawrd.
Omaha: Here is a clipping which
states that the word skiing Is cor
rectly pronounced "shee-ing." What
do you say?-W. T.
AnsWer-The word ski, in NorWe-
gian and Swedish is pronounced
"shee." But the word has long been
established in British and American
English, in which "k'' never has the
sound OF n" The standard Ameri-
can pronunciation, of course, is:
skee. And skiing is: skee-ing.
St. Paul: Some political speaker
or other II forget which one) has
been referring constantly to the
Berlin crisis as 1T is a kry-seez
that =" Can't you make him
stop it?-Mrs. L. w. B.
Political speaker, stop
saying "kry-seez" for crisis. The word
crisis is singular, and the correct
pronunciation Is: KRY-siss. Now, If
there is more than one crisis, you
may use the plural form crises, and
pronounce it: KRY -seez. But to say
"KRY-seez" for the singular word
crisis Is as absurd as Fulton Lewis's
"PREM-i-seez" for the word prem
ises.
Program note - Henry Wallace
does not say "pro-gr'm." He cor
rectly pronounces the gram as in
monogram and diagram.
Alexandria: At my Masonic lodge
the word demit "a transfer from one
lodge to anotheD is pronounced
"DEM-it." Is that correct?-W. B. c
! Answer-Sorry, no. The verb is:
dee-MIT. The noun is dee NIT;
but there is an increasing tendency
to pronounce the noun as: DEE-mit
This follows a we'll established pat
tern in American English as seen In
such words as Permit, noun; per.
NIT, verb; contract, noun; con.
TRACT. verb: Present, noun;
pre-SENT, verb, etc.

Fishing is the national occupation
of Greenland. One hundred species
of fish are found in the waters.
Ten species Of whalebone whale
and a large walrus colony may be
met in Greenland waters. Only at .
few places in the world Is there
any parallel Of a single animal
supporting and influencing the
whole life of a people as Is true Of
Greenland with the seals and cod.
The five species Of seals arS resi-.
dent only to slight extent in
waters around Greenland. The in
creasing systematic hunting Of
them in their breeding grounds has
had q marked effect on the num-
bers which migrate to within reach
Of Greenland. The small herring
like fish, known as the caplin and
called by Greenlanders "angmags-
sat-" is Of the greatest importance
to them. The fish penetrate the
fjords in vast numbers. Tons Of
them are caught and dried for the
winter for human and dog food.
Those too old to hunt seals in Q
kayak are willing to fish for cod.
After 20 years of rapid develop
ment cod fishing is the great ma
tional occupation
CHAR Is found in the fresh water.
Thousands fish for them through
the summer. when the fish migrate
along the rivers to and from the
lakes. Other fish caught are hall
but, Greenland or blue, sea Scorpion,
lump sucker and Norway haddock.
The largest sea fish is the Green
land shark, which Is caught for it,
liver. 1t Is so abnormally large 1t
yields much oil, which is extracted
by special melting process.
The wealth of marine animal life
makes Greenland habitable. Tfe
10 species Of whalebone whales move
up and down the coast. The gladia-
tor whale. most voracious animal,
Is hunted with great zest. This
whale appears to concentrate on
the small species Of whales, the
white and narwhal. who travel in
large schools. The larger whales
are caught by the Greenlanders in
a special whaling ship under gov.
ernment direction.
Hardy fishermen find that fish
ing in Greenland is very exciting.
More are favoring this spot an.
nually.

6 spades Pass Pass Pass
Opening lead, jack Of clubs.
At every reasonable opportunity Il
has been our policy to stress ths
principle that every high card Is
not the equal Of every other card
of the same denomination. The
honor trick table may tell us that
q king Is worth one-haf q trick and
on the average the table will be
right. But on a particular hand
We, who have listened to the bidding,
may come to the conclusion that q
certain king, far from being worth .
half trick, is absolutely useless be-
cause partner may have shown that
he has singleton or a void Of that
suit. Then, too, we may decide that
a certain king has become just so
much ballast by reason of the fact
that our left-hand adversary has bid
the suit very strongly and that the
chances Of winning trick with that
card are extremely remote.
On the other hand, the value Of
a half trick assigned to king may
be grossly inadequate when we
realize that the king in question Is
sure to win q trick. The assurance
may come from the fact that part
ner bid that suit or indicated that
he had the ace to match it.
When North picked up his hand
he saw only one and a half honor
tricks and had nothing to cheer
about, since, If fate were unkind.
his hand might produce no tricks,
but as the bidding developed he
learned that he had the equal Of
three aces, to say nothing of the
doubleton diamond and the fourth
trump. On the third round of bid
ding it became apparent that he had
an enormous hand.
To the opening bid of one spade
North could do no more than give
a single raise. To be sure, 1t was O
very comfortable raise and with 1t
was held out the wish that partner
would speak again. But if partners
hand were such that he could take
no further action there was no good
chance for game. South, Of course,
Immediately realized that there was
game in the hand, but if North
happened to have maximum raise
and in the right places there might
even be a slam. If North'S values
happened to be in hearts there
would be no hope, but if they hap
pened to be in the minor suits pros
perity might be just around the cor
ner. At any rate, there was no harm
in bidding three diamonds, which
was one-round force. North now
indicated that he had good raise
by going to four spades.
1t now appeared to South that
five was safe, so he made one more
try by showing the ace of clubs:
You see what this did to North's
hand: 1t converted every one Of
his honor cards to the equivalent Of
an ace. He was inclined to bid the
slam himself, because it was incon.
ceivable that South could do all this
bidding with two losing hearts.
However, he decided to show the
king of diamonds and South him
self took the leap, feeling that at
worst the slam would depend on
some sort Of finesse In the diamond
suit. Actually 1t turned out to b
a laydown.

Livestock Prices
TO Advance Next
Year Says Expert

Look for some advance in live
stock prices early next year, says
Extension Economist Karl Hobson
Of Washington State College. He
says there'll be less meat on the
market early in 1949. And therell
be less meat throughout the first
half of next year than there was
during the first six months Of
l948.
In general, prices for the live
stock producer should be favorable
several years. But Hobson doubts
they'll 60 as high again as they
went last summer.
Those high prices had some
thing to do with the unusually
severe declines in livestock prices
this fall. Here are some examples
of those sharp declines, taken
from the Spokane market, Live
