There is something about an examination paper which makes even bright pupils daft. History is an especial stumbling block. In a batch of history papers one teacher found the following statements : "Commodore Perry was a hero man. He led a good armv and was at tho head." "liobert Lee was a man in the army. He did a good deal, I think, and made some speeches. Anyway, he invented the first steamboat. The battle of Hunker Hill was fought June 17, 1775, after prayer." * The question "Give a brief deaorintinn nf Shav's Rebellion." resulted in some novel information as to the character of the rebellious gentlomau. One paper said : , "Shay was a great slave-holder. Seeing the manner in which things were going he rose in re volt and formed a rebellion. He decided to tret what he wanted, even if he had to fight fer it." Another paper said: "After theRevolution the country was in debt. Massachusetts was more in debt than any other State and Daniel Shay rebelled. He wanted the debt to be paid, but he wanted things done just." This contributiton to Benjamin Franklin literature was made: ''Benjamin Franklin discovered an electric light, lie was a poet." To the question "Name three American inventors and their inventions," one pupil answered boldly: "(1) The discover}'of America by Columbus. (2) The invention of electricity by Benjamin Franklin. (3) The indention of the steamboat by Robert Lee." Some of the early discoverers would not know themselves from the descriptions given: "'"oliim bus was the man who discovered America in 1702. Sebastian Cab ot was one of the men who helped to discover an American. Magellan started out with a lot ol men in some boats he had made but ho didn't have good luck AJageilan was the first man whc made a globe. He discovered the strait between th^ southern end of South America and a rock." l'urgoyiioL invasion was quickly disposed of by one hoy with "Burgoyne thought that by goiim around his route that the people of America would think it. a great piece of business and would be frightened." Lee's surrender was described in this fashion, "Lee's provisions gave out and the power and other things. Lee's surrender caused great excitement among the j.?triots. The British rode to the L ftId and Lee was already tnere on the point of surrendering had Washington not ro le jp. The period of reconstruction I. "V was an empty waste to most c the pupils, although one oft'ere the information that it was afte the war (name of the war nc mentioned) and "it means everj tiling was made now, new thing made and new houses were bull It was a period of repairs an redress.1' The name of William McKinle came into the examination an one paper said of him : "Williar McKinley was the last presente of the United States and he wa one of the best presented Unite States ever had. He was a lovel man and liked by most every on Ho was killed while visiting th Uanna American Axposion." A girl wroto frankly, "I don' know much about the Mexicai war, the Mexicans fought on on side, but I don't know who fough on the other." A lad who wrote the way h talked struggled to give his idea of Queen Klixabeth in "Elizabet I tought she was pretty but sb wan't." "Comwell was an English Gen earl who wen* in search of th Uolilen Fleece," said one pape and another, "Neville Karl c Marwick, was a King maker. M made Kings from the beginnin until now." An ancient history paper yield ed the following fact: "Afte each half to the battle Brutu and Canaille committed suicidi Julius Caesar attended a militar school in Spain. Julius Caesa thought he'd study oratory, s he took of Miletus. As a chil pines and dies without food, s Athens pined and died withoi its food l'ericles."
