Rambling With-Lucy
(Lucy R. Woods)
Ghana has been in the news frequently of late,
This spring a team of four engineers from Ghana's Volta
River Authority flew 'to Toronto fora four-month course with
the Ontario Hydro Electric Powe:17 Commission.
Canadian teachers have volunteered for service with the
External Aid Program in Ghana.
Among :those going last year for two years Was George
011erhead, son of Dr. and Mrs. W. 011erhead, London, accomp,
anted by his wife the former Susan McEwen, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. R. H. McEwen, RR 3, London, and granddaughter of
the late Col. Robt. McEwen.
Summered At 'The Cedars'
- Susan is a graduate of St. Joseph's Hospital School of
Nursing, London. Prior to her training -she spent holidays
in Bayfield 'at "The Cedars" cottage!. And so she is well-
known amongst the summer residents and friends in the
village, 'as is her mother, formerly Miss Dorothy Heath,
daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. F. H. Heath.
"The Cedars" was 'the first summer cottage built in Bay-
field, other than - those for rent, and has remained in the
family ever since.
F. H. Heath came here first in the "Gay Nineties" with
'the Rev. Mr. Stuart of Knox Presbyterian Church, London.
He was so enamoured of Bayfield that lie promptly made
reservations at the Queen's Hotel (the old Ritz Hotel which
burned in 1947) for his wife and family for summer holi-
days. They stayed there several summers.
In The "Gay Nineties"
Then in 1900, he purchased a lot- from Lewis. Thomson
and built "The Cedars", That year, Mrs. McEwen. recalls,
they stayed 'at "The River Hotel" (now Emerson Heard's
residence) to be close while the building of the cottage was
in progress'.
The Heaths had a clear view of the harbour and never
dreamed that someday- the view would • be shut off by the
growth of cedars and 'the cottage be situated ',between the
highway and two busy roads.
So Susan 011erhead's roots 'are deep in this community.
And that is why Lucy has been so interested in hearing
'through friends, of some of the experiences of 'the young
couple.
Pitfalls Plentiful in Ghana
They went to Winneba, on the sea coast, where George -
taught at the Training School. He works hard but enjOys
it, and considers the Ghanaians very .intelligent.
Susan decided to break with tradition. and do all her
awn housekeeping when their steward proved unsatisfactory.
And there were pitfalls 'in the matter of clothing. The
large 'ants and cockroaches ate la the veiling off her hats
and the elastic in her garments. The sun rotted her dresses.
Repulsive Reptiles Galore
The climate is quite 'hot -and humid but they enjoy
swimming in the ocean. They found that things mildewed
over night—even the keys of their typewriter. Their home
was broken into and the typewriter stolen.
Susan doesn't like the bugs, ants, and the lizards which
reach • 'a length of from four to six feet. One day George
came home and found her up a tree. There was a four-foot
lizard in the 'garden. The snakes also were frequent visitors
and she found it hard te get used to them.
It is a very beautiful country--sonie of the buildings
very modern and in other sections of the cities., primitive
mud huts,
.agcy With Barter System
Food is quite expensive and with a recent import ruling
some items difficult to obtain.
One bargains for everything and does not tip the Afri-
cans, but they gibe one a bonus sometimes, the 011erheads
learned.
Dr. and Mrs. W. 011erhead visited their soh and daugh-
ter,in-law do Winneba in April. They found them well and
thoroughly enjoying their many unusual and sometimes
amusing experiences.
To Timbuktu, Too
Soon after arriving in Ghana last year, George and.
Susan bought, a small oar 'and have been taking every oppor-
tunity to see as much as possible of Africa.
At 'Christmas they had a Wonderful 'trip to Ttianbuktu,
French Sudan. And at Easter, a boat trip to the Congo I
This summer they are on the continent touring France,
Italy, Switzerland, Germany, England and Scotland. It is a
respite from the sun and humidity of Africa.
Canadians Popular
On their return to Ghana, George will be teaching in
the High School at Accra, 40 miles EaSt along the Coast
from Witrieba.
Due to import regulations, relatives here are Unable to
send anything to Mr. and Mrs. George Oiler head In Ghana.
And there are strict regulatiOns concerning mail--4etters
from Canada are sOnnetimes censored! • But they find 'the
Ghanaians themselves very charming and Canadians are pop-
ular there.
