content: Frank E. Midkiff was an administrator with the Frederick Duclos Barstow Foundation, a charitable organization concerned with education in Samoa. His papers are arranged chronologically. Among them are a detailed general study of Samoa done in 1933, correspondence dealing with the work of the foundation, and a set of papers presented in 1955 on education in Samoa. Bound with this last set is a copy of The Mid-Pacific Magazine of January, 1933, which contains an article by Midkiff on the work of the Barstow Foundation and a number of pictures of Samoan and Samoans. Finally, there is an outline history of Samoa in ancient times.
