LETTERS TO THE editor

One of my children brought HON;
a set OF questions from the publk
school for the history examination
which interested me; only wish ]
could have had such examinations II
my day. instead, some of the teachers
required the history lesson to be com
United to memory;' while that was q
good exercise for the memory, it was
poor for the history, making many OF
the pupils dislike that branch of i'm.
portant study. But among these cues
lions used in our schools this year
was one regarding the first settlers Of
New England. 1t was: "Why did the
Pur'tans leave Holland" This rather
puzzled me, and thinking had some
where heard that it was a common er-
ror to confound the Puritans and the
Pilgrims, l referred the question to
Kew. Mr.. Hawkes., who is thought 70
know. something about such matters
