There she made efforts to uplift the broken lives of neglected women and babies. Her practical approach and administrative ability helped open a new life of hope for many forsaken women. To the children, she was a mother, and to the women, she became a loving sister and a friend.

In 1923, Clarke moved to Jhansi, where she worked with a group called ‘Bible Women.’ These women reached out to hundreds of Indian women who were not allowed to publicly appear and share the gospel with them. Then she had to move back to Damoh to manage the school activities. As a principal, she efficiently administered the schools when the funds were low.

Under her leadership, manual training classes for boys and girls were started. She had the reputation of being one of the most hospitable missionaries. An outstanding feature of Clarke’s service was her quiet dependability. Whatever work was entrusted to her, she did thoroughly.
