A statue of the saint was dedicated at Cagliar.

Ancient Chinese Used Whistling Arrows As Tracers and to Terrify Enemiesi A Chinese whistling arrow, which served the purpose thousands of years ago that the modern tracer bullet of antiaircraft guns does today, has been added to the collection of other relics of the mystic East at the United States National Museum here by Col. E. H. Humphrey of the United States Army. This ancient weapon resembles an ordinary arrow except for a large hollow acorn-shaped bulb on the front, where the arrowhead should be. This bulb is slit with crescent- shaped openings through which the alr rushes when it is in flight, pro- ducing a shrill whistle. The arrow, Museum officials 'say, was used in ancient China to indicate the course of flight, as well as for a signaling device and a means of terrorizing the enemy.

Legends tell how terrorized the in- habitants were. They believed that the weird noises were the howls of flylng devils. They lost their morale, and belleving their enemies to be in league with the evil spirits often opened their gates to them and tried to appease them with gifts instead of resisting them in battle.
