Frightening it is to discover
the ideas some kids are Picking
up in school these days, I got
Spine insight into the sheer
wildness of it when I was helping
Ming Kim with her history the
other day.
She is 12 years old, an aver
age kid by most standards, a
very bright one by those of her
parents. She's in Grade 8,1 was
reading from her history note-
book and asking her questions
based on the notes she had made,
First, I asked, what did the
early pioneers build their
homes of? The answer came
smartly: the earliest homes
were little mere than shanties,
but soon the pioneers began
building with lumber, stucco,
brick and stone. I asked her
where they got these materials.
"In the fields," was the answer.
Baffled, I looked inher notes.
There it was: "Soon the settlers
began to build houses out of
lumber, brick, stucco and stone
from their fields." I had quite
an argument before convincing
her that lumber, stucco and
brick do not grow in fields.
Next, I shot her a question
on the harvesting of grain in
the early days. Her note book
stated that ',the grain went
through many painful process-
es". It went on to say that the CHURCH NOTES11

A little later I came across
the startling information that
during the Rebellion of 1837 in
Upper Canada, William Lyon
IVIackerizie's rebels had been
defeated by 30 men "at Maple
Leaf Gardens."
Frankly) I was appalled, and
slightly delighted, What an in-
terestieg way to learn history!
Then, pursuing her notes, I
was informed that Lord Selkirk,
in trying to establish his com-
munities in what is npw Mani-
toba, got Into a squabble with
the Northwestern Fur Trading
Company, and "carelessly cap-
tured Fort William." How do
you capture a place carelessly?
After the initial shock wore
off, it occurred to me that my
daughter didn't know limestone
from fieldstone; that she really
had no idea where bricks and
stucco came from; that she
didn't even know what a sawmill
was; that she didn't realize
that, while the NHL is adept
at crushing rebels, it was not
in existence in 1837; and that
she had just thrown that adjec-
tive 'icarelessly" in through
sheer good spirits and a com-
plete ignorance of who Lord
Selkirk was, and where Fort
William is,
