Mysterious Shapes Of Arrowheads Is Explained by Expert It is a mystery to many people iiow the North American Indians to make such perfect arrowheads with the implements at command. Scientist say that a pebble or stone was first split into -suitable blades or fragments by holding it edgewise on a hard base hitting it sharply about the with another stone. The blades were trimmed to a leaf-shape by striking them smartly with a hammer of horn, bone or 4pugh granular stone mounted in a handle. Blades thus prepared were usu- buried in damp soil, not to them as is often supposed, but 'to keep them even temepered. This accounts for the caches of crude arrowheads often found near the sites of Indian villages and The finishing touches were put with a chisel-like pressure implement of bone or buckhorn.

Sometimes the arrowhead was a buckskin pad to keep it-from breaking in the finishing process. It was then placed on a stone or block of wood with the over the edge. Flakes were readily detached by applying strong, abrupt pressure at the proper points with the pres- sure tool. In -this manner margins were trimmed, stems formed, notches (seat and. points sharpened.

During Comdr. Helton's visit here last week-end, he was high in liis praise of Schreiner Institute and Kerrville Plying Service.

He stated "From the very beginning of the program, Dr. J. J. Delaney, president of Schreiner, T. M.

Hammond, coordinator, Fawcett, flight operator and their associates, had made the program one of the best in the district. Not only is the Navy Department grateful to those in charge of the training program, it is thankful to the city of Kerrville and it's citizens for making life pleasant and happy for the trainees while on liberty. Young men from all over the United States have come here to receive training and have gone away with pleasant memories of Kerrville. It is a fine city in which to live and an ideal community in which to train young flyers. Such has been the contribution of Kerrville toward starting many young Naval Aviators on their way toward combat zone and victory.

Schreiner can be justly proud of a job well done because it has proven to be one of the finer CAA-WTS schools." Lt. Comdr. Holton was also impressed with the splendid record made by Kerrville Flying Service for the rendition of good and safe flight instruction. Flying approximately 2,500 hours by Naval trainees not a single serious accident has occured. Lieut.

W. W. Wilkins, resident Naval officer, is in charge of the training at Schreiner, was also complimented of the school and of Kerrville. Among other things he said that, since coming to Kerrville in May 1943, he had received complete cooperation on the part of the school authorities to make the program a success. He stated further, "We have worked in complete harmony with the one purpose in mind of giving the trainees the best possible ground school and flight instruction.

The Naval personnel from the beginning became a part of the school and we are grateful for the many kindnesses shown us. T. M. Hammond, co-ordinator, and the instructors are to be commended for the excellent manner in which the ground training program has been handled." Since the establishment of the Naval training program approximately 600 Naval trainees have received flight training at Kerrville. All over the United States the schools which have been training Naval and Marine Aviators such as the local school, will close their service at the same time.

At any rate, we believe that God is on the side of the right, and we have been given every reason to believe that we fight for a right and just cause. We are to liberate Europe, and I see nothing wrong in giving people their freedom. "General Eisenhower, upon embarking to France, said in his message to us, 'We will accept nothing but full We haven't as yet lost an inch of ground, at least not while I was there.

Saw Earl Garrett a few days ago, he is getting along fine, looks well, and is making his unit a very fine officer. It was grand to see him, though only for a few minutes. Kerrville may be justly proud of him for the excellent work he is doing.
