But strange but true, in one of his sea voyages he read, "The Im- itation of Clii'is'.” and wars con- vorted. Griidually Newton came to ham the slave trade so he re- turned to England and married the sweetheart of his boyhood. For the next few years he worked as tide t-iirveyor at the port of Liver- pool. in has spare momen-ts he studied for the ministry.

After he was ordained in 1764. he in-rt poet. Bill Cowper. and be- gan writin: hymns. Perhaps the best of his productions is "glor- ious Things of Thee Are Spoken."

What Happened To The cow That Ate Radioactive Dust

WASHINGTON, tAP)-The most unusual story about a cow sincey Mrs. 0'Leary's bossie started thsl Chicago fire was told Saturday by a government scientist.

Dr. Herman Yagoda said he has what looks like evidence that a bit of radioactive dust from an Ameri- can or Russian atomic explosion was eaten by a grazing cow, prob- ably iii India. and then:

1. The particle became incorp-

orated in the cow's bones;

2. Passed into I gelatin rrxade. from tho hours; I

(I. Found its way into an emul- sion which uas made from the. gelatin and uhirh was used by a. firm in Britain to make photo-I graphic plates;

4. Was transported as part of

THE GUARDIAN. CI-IARLOTTETOWN

the photographic plates to the United States:

5. was flown to an altitude of 110,000 feet in a navy research bal- loan over Peyote. 'rex.. where the plates were used to study cosmic rays;

6. Finally showed up under a miscroacopo used to study die plates in a laboratory at Bethesda, Md.

Dr. Yagoda. a radiation physicist of the National Institutes of Health at Botheoda. reported his findings in an article in thenritlsh scientific journal. Nature, and also discussed them with a reporter Saturday.

He said that in studying the plates he found, among the tracks of comic rays. ”an unusual radio- active inclusion."

"I feel certain." he said. "that the markings I aaw were due to a radioactive particle that had come from an American or Russian atomic explosion and had in some way gotten onto the photographic plate in the process of its manu-

feature.

"I feel this certainly booatiu of the nature of the radiations evi- denced on the plates in connection with the radiation source. The characteristics were the same--I strong preponderance of so-called lbeta pai-ticlea'-which I have re- peatedly seen in radioactive dust given off by the test explosions at Bikini."

while he granled that it was pos- sible that a bit. of radioactive dust had fallen from the air on the plant while it wll being manufac- tured. he said "the most likely poa- slbllity" was that it was contained in the gelatin employed to make the plate emulaion.

"That likelihood." he said. "ll further increased because of the fact. that the gelatin originated from the hides and bones of cows which are constantly grazing over lnrge areas of soil. In the process of digestion. they pick up and to a large extent amimllate the dust particles-radioactive or otherwise -that fell on vegetation."

ill recently, the number of these itaclentlnc food specialists" was nuniawua but food is no important that many laymen now stiudy food and food values including vitamins and minerals

In the American Journal of Pub- lic Health. Dr. C. A. Elvehjlm states: "liven thoiuh deficiency diseases are mentioned in medical journals as often as tom-ieu-ly and their effect not spectacular, nutri- tion romaina as the most important environmental factor affecuiig our health. Improper dietary habits are increasing and they are aided and abetted by so-called food spec- laliaia, some of whom succeed in attaching an M. D. to their names."

However. due to research con- ducted by well-established authori- ties. the field of nutrition is ex- panding rapidly, so rapidly in

fact that the practitioner mutt t.l-iougbt to an adequate buic pl?-

conatantly review and reamed his

knowledge. so many and varied are the changes in the ltnmvladge of nutrition that we have all seen the pendulum swinging from a low protein (meat, eggs, nah) to a high one."

Demita all the valuable inform- ation on nutrition. Dr. Evekhjim states that physicians as a. whole are not absorbing or using this in- formation from high aounua. that is. from recognized specialists. tho nutritionist and the dietitian. He points at the special need for in- veatlgation of children's dleta al- though he admits that more re- search Work has been done on children's diets than on adults but even slight changes or deficiencies in children's diets can affect. them when they become adults.

"Slnoe fadiam in food diets thrives on half-truths and specu- lation regarding nutritional ques- tions which have not been ade- quately studied in schools. medical schools dhauld give more serious
