People

his hip on January 7. He underwent surgery
to put a pin in it on January 10, and is doing
as well as can be expected for someone over
9.0.
While travelling on the Parr Line and
sideroad corner the other day, Bruce and
Anna Keys saw several robins in Ivan Mc-
Clymont's orchard.
A hayride is planned for the Sunday
School students on February 2, weather per-
mitting. Tom Rathwell will provide a sleigh,
drawn by Minnie and Bob, his beautiful
team.
The January meeting of Varna United
Church Women was held at the home of
Margaret Hayter on January 9. There were
12 members present"' spite of stormy
weather and uncertain roads. Ruby Hill led
the worship service and gave the Medita-
tion.
Carol Simons gave a very interesting ac-
count of the three years she and George
spentwith the Indians on Georgina Island
Indian Reserve in Lake Simcoe. They went
there in 1958 as a minister -teacher team,
when their daughter Sue was three. They
soon came to think of the people as their
friends
•
They had to adjust to living without elece
tricity, a washing machine or indoor plumb-
ing, and some isolation from the mainland.
When the ice was thick they drove across by
car; in summer a ferry operated on an ir-
regular schedule. Eventually they bought a
boat of their own. •
Their first crisis came quickly. George ar-
rived first and immediately had to conduct a
funeral for a child, his first funeral ever.
Soon after Carol arrived she was called on to
help deliver a baby, as the doctor had to
come from the mainland and was late.
Carol's students were from ages six to 16.
They had exceptional skills in music and the
arts but found arithmetic and other subjects
difficult. Children from»rade 6 and up are
now educated on them mainland. The separa-
tion from families at that young age is
distressing.
eorge ministered under the supervision
of (minister in Sutton. He also was involved
t
in activities like the fall roundup of cattle,
and was on a cattle barge that upset in
November's cold waters. Being a strong
swimmer, he was able to help the two In-
dians onto the overturned barge, and was
hailed as a hero. -
The Indians were mostly Chippewa (of the
Ojibwa Nation), some Mohawks and some
with white ancestry. There were about 25
families, and they were hunters and
fishermen. Carol described two families
which -were acontrast in lifestyle. Chief
Lorenzo and Tessie Big Canoe and their five
children were an attractive family.
Tessie was a Mohawk from the
Caughnawaga Reserve and their children
were ambitious. Grandma Big Canoe was a
wonderful story teller. Amos Charles and
his wife Barbara had six children and were
happy and laughing, but because of alcohol
abuse, food was often scarce in their house.
- Carol feels the Indian way of life had been
fine for them, but was spoiled when the
white man came. They have a strong
culture, do beautiful handicrafts, but are op-
pressed and suffer job discrimination. They
resent the paternal treatment they receive
from the government.
Some of Carol's students work in trades,
and some are employed at Douglas Point.
Punctuality and steady employment is still
not important to many of them,
The Simons brought two girls home with
them- so -they could experience a better
lifestyle. The girls were in their house most
of the time when they were on the reserve.
They have done well. Most young people
leave the reserve, but return again by the
time they are 40.
The Simons adjusted to the slower pace
and found it a rewarding experience.
An objective of $500 for mission and ser-
vice was accepted by the members. This
amount was achieved by offerings last year.
Treasurer Margaret Hayter reported a
healthy balance to begin the new year, the
result of catering to several dinners.
A considerable amount was spent last
year on insulating and renovating the Sun-
day School room, turning and repairing the
organ and pianos and buying a cabinet for
music, along with donations to quite a
number of projects the group supports
regularly.
The pancake supper will be held ,on
February 11.
