He procured a number of highly pol
ished plate glass mirrors, and after sew
eral attempts succeeded in stationing
some members of the crew in such posi-

the mirror into the hold. In several in
stances the rays had to pass through
small manholes, few inches in diam

with lenses and magnified after reaching
the compartment where the repairs were
to be made.
In this unique manner food of bright
