MIDWAY ISLANDS
 PACIFIC BARRIER
Lonely Stretches Barred Round
 World Pliers

Washington, D. C., Sept. So-Mid- - way, the tiny mid pacific islet that proved to be the insurmountab ble barrier of the Schlee- Brock round the world airplane flight, is the sub ject of the following bulletin from the Washington. D. c. headquarters of the National Geographic Society.
 There are really two main is lands, Sand. on which a cable sta- ton is located, and Eastern. a mile or more distant. Each is less than two miles long and slightly more than a half mile wide. Sand Island has an average elevation above sea level of from three to ten feet and Eastern, from six to twelve fee. The highest point rises but 45 feet. Thus the minutest deviation of the aviators from their course in the early stages of their 24S0 mile flight from Japan. would have found them many miles to the north or south of their objective when the Midway longitude was reached.
 Serves as Cable Station
 Midway is now under lease to a cable company which operates a relay station between Guam and Honolulu. There are 12 to Is white inhabitants and about as many oriental servants. They are out of touch with the world except through the undersea telegraphic line and a supply boat that brings mail and stores four times a year from Honolulu. which lies about 1900 miles southwest.
 When Captain Brooks of the Gambia discovered Midway in 1859. he found a. desolate spot of glaring sand and scattered bushes. The cable company has worked steadily to improve conditions for it's em- ployes Four steel and concrete buildings have been erected at cor ners of a little plaza and a small portion of the sandy wastes have been covered with earth imported in sacks from Honolulu. and plant cd in grass. ornamental shrubs and flowers.

Anti-Headlight Specs
 Invented for AutOists

Stockholm, Sept. 30 UP)-A new kind Of eyeglasses to protect drivers of automobiles against glaring head lights has been invented by a Stock holm eye specialist Dr. Carl G. Rostrom, who is also chief medical officer of the Swedish Navy.
 The glass itself is not new. being the German made Haliauer glass No. 66 which eliminates the irrita- tions caused in the human eye by certain sharp rays. but Dr. Bos- trom's idea consists in gradually shading this greenish- -yelow-gray glass into ordinary clear glass a the lower half of the lenses so that by slightly bending the head when meeting a glaring head light. the driver can protect himself and at the same time have uninterrupted vision for ordinary driving.
 Dr. Bostrom's original idea was to protect the eyes of aviators and commanders Of naval destroyers both against the sun and hostile search lights.

 The newest wrinkle In cole eiate working circles is red capping." Virtually all the 200 baggage toters employed at the Union Station in Chicago by the Pennsylvania rail- road are college men.
 During the summer they drift in from all over the country. leaving in the fall with their accumulated savings to re-entar school. In the winter the railroad recruits its force solely from students of Chicago col leges

The only professionals" on the force are twelve supervisors.
 But being a porter is not the odd est task performed by college men helping to earn their way through school. It Is not uncommon for a strapping guard on the football team to 'mind' someone's children.
 Being q professional pail bearer is an attractive side line for many students. The pay is s2 a funeral and the only requirements are a dark suit and a pair of white gloves.
