Letter, From India Gives Idea Of .Day -To -Day Living There Excerpts from a letter from 14.^s. J. A. White of Goderich, who has been visiting her dau- ghter Ida, in Tndia for the past eight months: "Well here I am, sitting in my dignity, thinking what to write, I am really enjoying' my stay here: I have a lot of fun talking to people who don't under- stand me, or I them, so no quar- reling. I have been sick just a• little but was put to. bed. While there, some of the BhiL'.people came to visit me. O'ire came and sat by my bed. She would talk and wave 'her hands like the -French, . so did I. Then she open- ed a knot in the corner of her sari and showed .me her money, just a little silverand one fifty cent piece. Then she wanted to give ane . the fifty cent piece'. I said "Oh .thanks dear, but I couldn't ••spend money lying in bed;' so I put it back with the rest" and she tied it up. Then she took two bragelets off her arm and put, them on my arm and wrist. Wasn't that sweet! ' So I war them, also;a necklace the women carrying water'from the well gave me one day as I was taking my two ladies their dinner. They waited for me at Morcie's door, that is the name of one lady, so. I went- wiiththem to the well. I helped to pull up the water with a large chain but they work so' fast and I nearly fell. Then they would laugh. Then they tried to set their vessels on my head. Well, the one was empty an'd wasn't too bad. Then they put ... on one filled with water; Oh dear, it was too heavy but we all en. jayed the little break: 1' don't Pike to see them working so hard but really, -they laugh and seem quite happy. So we are going to have a- party at the well, Judy, her eight women,and myself. I'll ask the cook to make rice `and curry for4 us, He will take' it down too. Ida has six nurses working at the dispensary, two of them go to homes if called. The hospital in Jobat is closed.( and will be for a year as Dr. Daniel is go. ing to England to University. He is an Indian doctor; they are lovely " people. We were invited to their place for a rice and curry' dinner. Mrs. Daniel is very nice, • -they have three little' children, the baby one year old. We have ,.a lot of company. Yesterday Rev. Milian, wife and three children came. It seems funny when missionaries go on a ..visit, they bring their, codk and their- driver.'the cook always ,helps the cook in charge in the kitchen. We had another prema.• ture baby last week, just six and a half months. It, was born at na.m. but died at six; it was perhaps three, pounds.• 1 felt sorry when I read about " Mrs. Gandhi. Someone threw a st.ote an"a hit her on the nose. Goess she is trying to get rid of the old cows and people Just don't approve. They seem towant to ".stay with their old customs. Did I tell you that we are going home via Ireland? Will stay there twelve days and two days in England. We visit in Bel. fast and then go toShannonwhe"re Dr. -Howard's mother lives. Also will try to find Dick Car%: )e11's family. Do you remember they had a garage on St. David Street when in Goderich? This morning the temperature is ninety degrees in the house at nine—thirty a.m.., so another hot day. 'I think I can 'stand the heat better than. Ida can. The time is gong so fast and Ida needs the rest, as she is on the go from 5.30 a.m. until late at night,and then on call through the night. It is really wJnde:ful; the mothers can go home the same day after giving birth; some days they have three confinements. Thanks to you girls that I really made this trip. I have enjoyed every minute of my visit - here. Wish my memory were better but I shall still have lots to tell you, Well dears, I hope that you both'. have had a nice winter and best - of health all through the cord weather. Guess I'll have to shovel snow next season: Will be nice to see you all again. God _bless andkeep you always.
