CHINESE VETERAN OF CIVIL STRIFE Only One Of Nativity Enlisted in
 Union Army

Gloucester, Mass. Aug. cs. R- Edward Day Cahota. reputed to be the only full-blooded Chinese to enlist in the union armies in the Civil war. came to Gloucester this summer to revive boyhood mcm- ories.
 The National Tribune, organ of the veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic. is authority for the statement that Cahota was the only Chinese to enlist for Civil war service. The same authority states that he was the only one of his race ever to enlist in the Amer ican regular army up to the time of the world war;
 Cahota claims to be a Glouces- terite, for his association with this old seaport goes back more than 70 years. In 1857 Capt. Sargent s. Day, skipper of the last of the old square-riggers sailing out of Gloucester, was on a voyage to the treaty ports of China. While there he took on a Chinese cabin bo, of eight years who proved so likeable that the captain adopted him un- der the name of Edward Day Cahota.
 That was how Cahota reached Gloucester. He was only Is when, in 1864. he stretched his age and won enlistment in the army. He UaS aSSioped fo (.orpoop,, oc,1 Regiment under Capt. Edward Sto- ry of Gloucester.
 At the battle of Cold Harbor member of the company, William E. Lowe. now living in Marblehead. was wounded Cahota took him to the rear to an ambulance station and then rejoined the fighting line
 In recent years. when members of the old 23rd regiment have lad their reunions, Lowe has been the only member of Company I to an- swer roll-call. He has responded as the only surviving member of Company l."
 When Cahota learned that Lowe was in Marblehead somewhat ill he drove to the fellow-seteran's home to greet him.
 Cahota went west after the Civil var, enlisted with the regulars" and remained with the army 30 years, until 1904, when he was re- tired.
 His residence is at the National Sanatorum of South Dakota.

GYPS|ES ORDERED
 ID ROAM NO MORE
End of the Romany Trail Be-
 lieVed in Sight

Washington. Aug. 2S. P-Has the gypsy come to the end of the Romany trail?
 Hungary has ordered the roam- CTS to settle down and adopt con- ventional clothes. Three years ago, the Soviet government told the EaddinE Russian gypsies to pick | home and stay in it. But the National Geographic society says history is just repeating itcelf.
 History shows that other govern ments have failed to make a farm- CT or ! townsman out of a swarthy. nomad gypsy. It is not believed that an order can remove from gypsy blood the urge to wander on and on.
 The term "gypsies" is an odd error of an Englishman who thought the swarthy people came from Egypt: Egyptians gypsics. Sons and daughters of Rom ny, they call themselves.

REFRIGERAT|ONIS
 HEALTH ESSENTIAL
Keeps Food From Spelling and
 Aids Digestion
(by |. s. Public Health Seryicel

(By '. s. Public Health service)
 Washington. Aug. 2s. R-The in- timate relationship between health and food has aroused widespread interest in recent years
 Much attention has been devoted to the constituents of various kinds Of food. with particular stress on the importance of the different vii tamines they contain and one com- putations and estimates of the number of calories each can pro- vide in the daily diet.
 That situation may be ascribed in large part to the importance of these body building and heat pro- oucing elements and partly, per- haps to the interesting complexity of the problems involved. The more commonplace question of food preservation and refrigeration, while engaging the attention of a number of investigators. in the opinion of Public Health Service observers, appears to have aroused relatively less general and scien- Ufic interest than it merits.
 The refrigeration problem. they feel. Is especially emphasized in summer owing to the importance of protecting all raw food against un- due heat. This is particularly true of milk and other dairy products, meat and fish. which should all ways be kept at q low temperature until cooked.
 During very hot weather, health investigators nave learned, many cases of intestinal disorder among infants, children and. to a lesser extent, adults can be traced either to improper or unwise habits of eating or to failure to keep food products properly cool and covered. Many persons. thly have found, fail to realize that if meat. fish. and milk are not placed in refrigera- tor until several hours after they are purchased their qualities are likely to be greatly impaired. Even when that error is avoided consid- erable spoilage results from failure to return unused portions of the foods to the refrigerator as quickly as possible after removing them in the course of preparing a meal.
 All foods, the health authorities explain. contain bacteria. which. if allowed to become numerous. will cause fermentation in the stomach and intestines. resulting in various kinds of illness. The digestive juices of the organs involved are adequate, however, to overcome their harmful activity if their null tiplication is retarded and held within reasonable means by refrig- eration.

Rom" in the gypsy tongue means man. or especially. husband. Thus. Romany is the sect of hus- bands" Their women get scant recognition; among gypsies. only husbands are important That is shown as well by the three com mandments which hold the gypsies together no matter where they roam. The commandments are:
 Separate not from the "roms'' (husbands).
 Be faithful to the husbands.
 Pay your debts to the husbands,
 Unity. loyalty. honor: by re- specting these principles the EVA has survived in a world oprosei to nomadism. The first command ment. Separate not from the hus- bands" has kept intact tribal spirit and language. The women have obeyed the second, witness the black eyes. swarthy skins and black hair among all gypsies. But the last commandment has lost all but moral force since no civilized nation will permit the operation of the old gypsy law which compelled a defaulting debtor to serve as slave to the lender for a year and a half.

tions. Churchmen who favor their elimination point out that they are not and never have been par; of the Book of Common Prayer. but simply have been printed under the same cover as supplementary.
 Whatever action is taken on the prayer book at the Washington convention will be of historical significance due 10 the fact that revlsions have been rare. Only three revisions have been made in the history of the American church. The book was compiled during the 12 years between l54o and 1852 by a commission headed by Archbishop Cranmer, who was assisted by six bishops and six doctors of divinity.
 The Right Rev. Charles Lewis Slattery. Bishop of assachusetts, says the change will eliminate many archaic expressions which have lost their meaning or are now misunderstood, and that the

 Between 125 and l40 bishops, bishops coadiutor and ishops suffragan, and batween 500 and 700 clerical and lay delegates will vote on the revisions.
