A short trip over a well-paved
road brings one to the Volta
River Bridge and Togoland. This
is the homeland of the Eve
tribe. The western half is now
an integral part of Ghana,
while France maintains control
of the eastern part under United
Nations mandate.
The northern territories OF
Ghana are entirely different
from the southern area. Small
planes fly first to Kumasi and
then on to Tamale. Twenty min
utes after leaving Kumasi the
heavy jungle growth slips away
and beneath the plane is dry
bush country, almost desert-like
in appearance. The heat in Ia
male is intense but there is lit
tie humidity.
1t was early in the morning
when, with Father Evdore Ar
senault, White Father from
Canada, I started north in a
pickup truck we'll loaded with
supplies for missions along the
way.
In Damongo we made our
first stop. A few years ago the
British government tried to
grow peanuts here on an i'm
mense scale. The venture was a
failure. Many buildings were
erected, wells were sunk and
great quantities of mechanical
agricultural instruments were
brought in.
Today the houses have be.
come hospital wards under the
care of the Church. Three Sis
tiers of st. Anne from Wimble.
don, England, and an Italian
doctor bring the benefits of
modern medicine to the thou
sands Of primitive people in this
region.
In a true sense the Sisters be-
gan. this mission. There was no
resident priest nearer than rs
miles. Now there are two priests
in the mission and many cate
chumens. The doctor, an expert
surgeon, performs the most del.
icate operations with assistance
of the Sisters and the African
girls who have been trained as
nurses.
Our next stop was at a mis-.
sion in Kaleo. From here on to
the northern border we would
be with the Dagati tribe. TWEEN
|ty-six years ago this mission
was opened. Here today is the
