AUDITORIUM
Clinton
family tasted life in India
When he realized he couldn't
continue with pigs and corn
Father Abraham branched out
into chickens because here was
something he felt he could han-
dle.
This is where today, on the
top of the school roof, he and
his 1200 students have ap-
proximately 3000 laying
chickens. The reason for the
roof being used is simply
because there isn't space
anywhere else.
Jane assisted with the
chickens, then started teaching
English in the school. She also
started a sewing group with
women who through illness
were unable to continue
carrying heavy loads of 100
pounds or more and were,
therefore, deprived of their
livelihood.
"I didn't believe it was
physically possible to teach
sewing to women who had
never held a needle in their

Brucefield
by Dorca Ballantyne
of the Western
Ontario Farmer
For Jane Davidson, the
death of her husband in 1970
has meant taking over the farm
operation, making decisions for
herself and her five children,
and deciding where she herself
is going.
Sitting in the living room of
her charming 'home at RR 1,
Brucefield, and looking out at a
beautiful view which she called
`her million dollar wallpaper'
the quiet strength of this young
woman is apparent.
Talking about her late
husband, Malcolm, Jane said
he had been a corn and hog ex-
pert in Ontario, and a man who
believed very strongly in self-
help programs for under-
developed countries. He had
felt that they should be helped
to set up projects where they
could improve their standards
of living and their incomes.
Always having this desire to do
something of this kind led to
getting in touch with a Father
Abraham who is in charge of a
boys' high school in India. After
much correspondence, and with
the aid of Canadian Executive
Services Overseas he was able
to make the trip in 1969.
When he came home he
presented a paper on the corn
and hog production they had
worked out, and would have
gone back to India and got it
on its feet, but he was killed in
an accident.
"I .continued running the
farm for a year and started
selling off machinery," Jane
said. "Then one day I realized
my life didn't seem to be tur:
ning in any direction, and I
knew I had to go to India to see
it and find out what this place
was like where my husband
had worked and experienced a
different life style."
"I wrote to Father Abraham
and told him how I had
dreamed of coming to India. I
asked if it was possible that In-
dia was so far away financially
and physically. He wrote back
and said that it wasn't, and
why' didn't I start dreaming in
a practical way, which I did."
"I had myself involved with
business situations with the
farm land, but I walked out in
the middle of deals with the
neighbours. Because they were
friends I knew they would un-
derstand, I knew, too, that I
would have to come back, so in
August of 1972 I took off with
my five children and stayed for
eight months.
Home base for Jane and her
family was in northeast India
about 350 miles north of
Calcutta near Darjeeling at the
foot of the Himalayas, where
She worked with Father
Abraham.

hands, couldn't thread one and
knew nothing about sewing, but
I did get them to do cross stitch
work. And what is even more
gratifying is that there turned
out to be a market for this
work."
"Kindness and courtesy are
very apparent everywhere in
India, and after I had been
there a while I found it a fact
that giving of myself was more
important to me than the
receiving part of it."
"Now that I'm back, this
thing with making a living on
the farm isn't for me anymore.
When my husband was living,
the extras we had came from
his free lance writings and
radio broadcasts, so the little
fringe benefits we enjoyed came
from his work outside the
home."
"He was also away a great,
deal and as a result we had to
have a hired man, Eventually
he became very costly for me,

yet I couldn't afford to be
without him. He ran' the place
for me after my husband's
death, but the thing was that
with his wages and with costs
going up and up I could see
that sooner or later, I would
have to sell, Knowing it would
come eventually I decided I
might as well do it now, so out
of our original 550 acres I've
sold all but 200. Apart from 8
or 9 acres around the house I'm
going to dispose of the rest
eventually."
"I may come and go, I may
travel and do all sorts of
things, but this place will
always be my special spot in
Ontario. It is home to me and
even ,though I might waver; all
the time in my heart I know
this is the place where I want
to stay."
