Sea Offers Return.

Eight thousand sea otters live in
colonies along the coasts of Alaska
and the Aleutian Islands. They are
all that remains after millions were
slaughtered by the Russian and
American fur traders. At one time
sea otterS were found all along the
Pacific coast and small-scale wars
were waged over the herds.
The Russians were the first
Europeans to discover sea otters and
were quick to realize the value of
their beautiful warm fur. The small
sea animals, not over IL inches
long, wear lustrous, deep, brown fur
frosted in white. The round head
and throat are yellowish or grayish
white. Each pelt was worth more
than a score of common skins to the
traders.
Even the Russians, while hunt
ing them wholesale, realized it would
be foolish to eliminate animals pro-
viding such excellent revenue. They
made laws to protect them but
rapacious hunters drove them to the
Aleutian Islands and the Bering sea.
For ages the sea otters has been
the staple providers of flesh and fur
for the natives who only took what
they needed. From the day in 1741
when Bering and his crew first saw
droves of glossy. gamboling sea
otters, their doom appeared to be
sealed.
When the United States acquired
Alaska, the destruction was officially
halted. With the passage of time
and the protection afforded by

rigidly inforced international agree
mentS, the animals are again fairly
common in the Aleutians, the
Pribilofs and along the coast of
central California.
Watching them you discover they
possess unusual habits. Past perse-
cutions made them give, up frelick-
ing on the sands. All their time is
spent in the sea. Lying on their
backs they float gaily about in
schools. reaching out to clasp a
handful of kelp when they wish to
be stationary.
The young are born at sea. A
mother carries her baby on her
chest, one arm holding him tight to
her heart until the little one be-
comes used to his sea cradle When
the mother must dive for food, she
deposits her baby in a thick patch
of kelp.
Abolone is the main food of adults.
Diving otter bring to the surface
snails 6 to 10 inches long and these
are quickly removed from their
shells. The shells of the purple,
spiny sea urchin is punctured with
sharp canine teeth and the contents
is sucked out. Grabs are crushed by
the otter's massive cheek teeth, then
swallowed entirely.
Miss Edna Fisher reports in the
Journal of Mammalogy for 1899 that
she observed otters cracking open
clans by means of a fiat stone
balanced on the chest and smaller
stone used as a hammer and a most
unusual procedure for a mammal.
But the sea otters are indeed most
unusual animals.

Take My Word for 1t

Pronunciation Clinic.

Delco: Please put the word faile
through your excellent Pronuncia-
ton Clinic. I have heard it called
"fle," fail" and 'fail-ee."-Mrs.
J. w. B.
A. The dictionaries say fail"
That Is the only pronunciation
listed by all American dictionaries
with one exception.
On the other hand, as I have
pointed out repeatedly, dictionaries
do not establish pronunciation
Their function is to report the pro-
nunciations that are current among
literate people.
But 1t often happens that the
pronunciations which they recon-
mend as correct" are actually OBJ
solete and never occur in modern
American speech. Such noneSuch
pronunciations remain In the die
tionaries through inertia or faulty
reporting, or both.
This Is the case with the word
faille. People simply do not say
"fail." The universal American
pronunciation Is file. have made a
careful survey among people in the
furniture, dry goods, decorating, and
kindred businesses. They tell me
that fail" is unknown in their in
dustries and among their customers.
The unanimous verdict is: Every
body says file.
1t is incredible that this fact has
escaped the learned professors who
edit the dictionaries.
Last year Random House, pub
fishers of the very popular Ameri-
can College Dictionary, wrote to me:
I'VE are embarrassed not to have
shown what we now believe to be
the predominant pronunciation of
faille. In the printing of the ACD
now coming of the press, the first
pronunciation under faille is file.
(The printing mentioned is the 1949
edition.)
There is no reason why faille
should be pronounced fail" Like
wise there is no reason why "f1le" is
in any way improper except in the
minds of those persons who accept
their dictionaries as being of divine
origin.
Faille is word of French origin.
In that language it is pronounced
FA-yuh approximately.
The verdict of this pronunciation
clinic is: The correct American
pronunciation of faille is: file.

Reflex action at the card table
has caused the loss of a great many
hands. There are certain plays that
one forms the habit Of making in
routine fashion, but instinct is more
to be relied upon when tempered
with bit of analysis. One Of the
instructive type plays is for second
hand to play low when an impor-
tant card is led from dummy. Had
East permitted himself to fall into
the swing, South, the declarer,
would have stolen game in today's
hand.
The bidding was right out of the
book. Note that South chose to open
with one no-trump rather than an
Introductory diamond bid, which is
proper strategy when one holds a
1888 distribution and a point
count ranging from 16 to 10.
West led the queen of spades
against the final contract of three
no-trump. Declarer properly ducked
in both hands. This is correct tech
nique, even with two shoppers, since
two key cards must be driven out
(the ace and king of hearts.
Note that this holdup by declarer
would have rendered the contract
absolutely secure if the opening
leader held a six-card spade suit,
provided he did not also have both
the ace and king of hearts, in which
case no plan by declarer would sue
ceed.
With eight tricks in sight, the
game-going trick was available only
in hearts, so declarer promptly led
the deuce from dummy. Had East
refiexly played the three of hearts
Second hand low, the jack would
have gone to Vests ace, and, while
he could clear the spades, he could
never subsequently get in to cash
them. East, however, was on his
toes and, as the heart was led, he
