Sense of wonder plays important role
A few weeks ago, David
Suzuki, the scientist host of
the TV program, The Nature
of Things, remarke8 that he
would have given his eye
teeth, when he was a boy, for
a microscope to see what
made up a handful of shining
sand. I suspect the outcome of
that youngster's avid curiosi-
ty, and sense of wonder, led
him to the fame and fortune
he enjoys today.
Wonder and imagination
are the basic qualities that
produce any scientist, or for
that matter, any truly suc-
cessful person. Can you im-
agine Jonas Salk without
curiosity as he worked in the
lab to develop the first effec-
tive vaccine against the
dreaded disease,
poliomyelitis?
Of course, it takes more
than curiosity to bring about
suciess; a great deal of hard
work and iiitelligence goes in-
to any worthwhile project.
Still, curiosity and imagina-
tion are the beginnings.
Every few years, I take out
a library book called, I
Brought the Ages Home, by
Charles Trick Currelly, the
founder of the Royal Ontario
Museum. It's a fascinating
tale•of adventures that led
him all over the world on ar-
chaeology digs and
discoveries, and which
resulted in him being com-
missioned to gather a collec-
tion for the Toronto museum,
which opened in 1914.
Currelly, who has been
dead for some time now, was
cent ladies' hats of two
generations ago.
Currelly also related how
intrigued he was, strolling
around the village, curiously
watching the men at these
various works until he knew
It seems
to me...
by Gwyn Whilsmith
born in Exeter, Ontario, and
since that is my former home
town, I have always been
especially proud that the
Royal Ontario Museum's
roots are there, too.
He tells about his boyhood
of about 100 years ago, a time
when all Ontario villages
were almost self sufficient,
with their own tanners,
shoemakers and woolen
mills. They manufactured
their own wooden pumps,
wagons, sleighs, buggies and
most of their furniture.
Clothes were made by Local
dressmakers and tailors, and
every town had its milliners
who concocted those magnifi-
4,
a great deal about all the dif-
ferent trades: blacksmithing,
woodworking, stone cutting
and stone polishing. Later,
when he worked with ar-
chaeologists who knew
nothing of these basic kinds of
work, he was at a tremendous
advantage with the acquired
knowledge he had picked up
as curious youth in the rural
community.
A visit to the tiny museum
in university tower in Toron-
to when he was ten, affected
him deeply. He was filled with
a sense of wonder that never
left him. Years later, when he
had the privilege of handling
many wonderful artifacts of
the,past, the awe was still so
great that "I had a feeling
that one ought to fast, or
make some peculiar prepara-
tion before touching priceless
objects."
Not everyone felt the same.
Many mummies from digs in
Egypt, in the late 1800s, were
simply thrown out on rubbish
heaps. Some were shipped to
France and ground into a pig-
ment called mummy brown
to be used by the artists of
that time.
In the early part of this cen-
tury, Currelly was given what
seems an impossibly paltry
sum of $1500 to buy objects for
a proposed museum in Toron-
to. When one views the
thousands of rare collections
in ROM today, it's even
harder to believe, but his
story points out how one
man's sense of wonder and
curiosity developed into
something great....one of the
finest museums in the world
today.
Help keep
Red Cross
ready. NI■
We can never turn back the
clock to Currelly's time, nor
would we want to, but we can
encourage our children and
grandchildren to develop
their native curiosity and
sense of wonder. ft seems to
me, despite all its good points,
too much time spent in front
of the television, today,
stunts, these qualities instead
of enhancing them.
