ESKIMOS MADE WJj SPEARS FROM FINE MIRRORS “What would an eskimo do with la mirror?” is a question easily answered by a trip to the Territor- ial Museum. In the collection of Dr. D. 8. Newman, purchased by the museum more than 20 years ago, are two hafted spears, collected by Dr. Newman on King Island about| 1910. Both are flaked in the manner of flint or chert, but each spear- head remains unworked in the center. One plainly shows the beveled edge of a plate glass mirror, one- quarter of an inch thick. The other spearhead made from a mirror re- veals the silvering on the glass.
