In her talk to the SoroptimUU Thursday she said the practice of the English when they ruled India was to take all of the raw products from India and process them in England. Now India Is striving to process their own products. Two things England did for In dia was to establish Middle Schools and build railroads. Di alects differ in India from north to south and east to west. Eng Iish is now taught in the pub lie schools as well as in the mission schools. A down-to-earth person, Mrs. Graves says she chose not to take pictures of the agony uf India, the filth and leprosy and the beggars. When urged to vis it museums, she told them "Your streets and by-ways are the mu seums I want to see." They went by put-put (a I three-wheeled vehicle) to see thej signi.s. tsicycies are tne most popular mode of travel. A bicycle must be locked when left or it is stolen. As is anything else left unguarded. Her slides told the story of the market scenes where the stalls are laid out in the streets. The wash is done by the men slapping the garments against the concrete tubs in the open. The women may hang them up to dry. Wood as fuel is unheard of. The primary fuel are "patty cakes' made from cow manure. It is fashioned by hand into large size pies, dried, stacked and sold. This is Just one of the home industries that the gov ernment encourages. Women were seen cutting rice with scythes. This at a time when the 3rd atomic energy plant had Just been dedicated. ! A village is from 1000 to 5000 people. The hand pressed bricks used in making the houses are fired at a low temperature. When the monsoons come the bricks wash away and the homes are rebuilt. The bricks are another home industry as are the making of pens, swagger sticks, cigarettes (not made from tobacco). Their Hindu temples and grounds are beautiful. The grass surrounding the handsome Taj Mahal was being mowed with a cow pulling the lawn mower. The extremes of India were in the pictures of the camel pull ing a plow when in the distance could be seen a power line that looked like the BPA lines leav ing the Columbia's dam. Mrs. Graves noted that here their farms were all mechanized long before electricity came to the ranch. She was an honor guest at a wedding in the country of Corrg. This fantastic affair of 3-days was attended by more than 3000 people. All of them were guests of. the bride's parents. Meals were served in a long outdoor dining room with only a roof. The bride and groom had never seen each other. The wedding had been arranged by the par ents. The "pedigree" of the bridegroom is examined as this cattle woman said, "like a prize bull". The parents offering the most for the bridegroom for their daughter is the one chosen. The bridegroom's parents keep the money. The couple receives the bless ings and rice offerings of fam ily and friends and then they go to the home of the bride groom's parents for the last of the ceremony. One of the re quirements of the wedding cer emony here is for the bride to carry a Jug of water on her head a distance of some 3 blocks. This is to show that she will be a dutiful and hardworking wife. The bridegroom's friends form all kinds of obstacles so that in the hour and half that Mrs. Graves watched, she had covered only a distance of about 30 feet. She told the SoroptlmUts that tourists may be shocked in any country. Just as we may be shocked by the conditions and practices In India, they are In turn shocked by conditions Mere. She says In all the time she was in India, she never saw a man or a woman touch each other in public. Indians coming to America are shocked to see the personal contact of our people In public. This "Woman on the go", re turned to her ranch at Hard man In time to participate In the spring calving operations. She will show another set of pictures on April 19 at the Meth odist Church. She plans to show all of her pictures at the Home Extension Achievement Day Fes tival on April 27. DOT'S JOTS Well Tuesday Is the Green Day and the Heard's are enough Irish that all were "wearln1 the green" Including our dog Dew ry. I tried at St. Patrick's Day dessert that I can hardly wait tc taste to see if It U as good as it looks ... but It's full of calories. I try a different recipe each year. The year I tried the Irish Soda bread, my family thought I shouldn t try It again. But speaking of our dog, Dew ey ... his tail is a conversa tional piece. The kids In Pilot Rock said he has a prehistoric tall. He used to have a beauti ful plume but the vet said he had eczema when he lost all the hair. Anyway he's our faith ful fellow. He's always had a friendly tail and it wags lots. Our oldset grandson, Mike and Dewey are the same age. When Mike was a little guy he said, I like the tune Dewey's tall plays". It plays different tunes as it rubs on paper, hits against the metal of the appliances or against the wood cabinets. He's like some people . . . old before his time and too fat! We do have him on a restrictive diet and he is losing weight... which Is more than you can say for Charlie and me! BUT we hope you all had a Happy St. Patrick's Day!! HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIM EA.
