LAKESHORE RAMBLER Sometimes the bottomless depths of my oun Ignorance appal me I was going over the map of Europe With Jeremy last night in preparation for a geography test when I discovered that Sweden is not tucked costly into the center of Europe, right next to Swit- zerland. No sir, it's way off in the middle of some very cold-': looking sea at the top ot the map tthe one I got with "Tide"). to! gether with Finland and Norway. For years I've assumed .- and) even said out loud -- that Sweden was next to Switzerland on no firmer basis I now realize than that both countries began with' "Sw". (Thu u the sort of female illogic which makes my husband bun at the ears) Ot course I should have known that the old map-makers (alllmnlel wouldn't arrange things tidilv as a woman, would. It was also a surprise to see that Portugal is part ot Spain - at least, it's all part of the same blob of land And Denmark isn't really a part of Scandinavia - it's the most northern craggy port of Germany. at least on the map. I know: it's incredible that anyone should have gone through World War II with its endless published diagrams and maps of battle areas without finding out, meaning about Europe. I am quite ashamed of myself. but re-' lieved that I now know where Sweden is. even if I had to wait for my son to reach Grade 8 to find out. My education can't help but improve as I go through school with the rest of the children. It's discounting to realize how much lie forgotten about school and what it taught me. Somewhere in the sludge of my subconscious I'm sure there are all sorts of fascmatmg facts and figures about copper exports and the Corn Laws, but nothing Ger rises to the surface. On the other hand. my husband remem- bers a great deal of his school-work and is always startling me with his knowledge on a number ot subjects. Though I must say that he obviously didn't benefit at all from his study of English literature or history. I suppose I had geography lessons at school but I can‘t remember them, whereas my tussels with arithmetic and my triumphs in English composition are fairly clear. I could but it more easily it ne e:ther mane a Joke of a Wild ride like today's or apologized for it, but the “hole proceeding ll bated with I sort of dignified gloom and the occasional nervous giggle which I cannot restrain after being snatched from death's muting jaws is grimly ignored. or course, I must admit that my driver did warn me, when I asked if I could ride with him, that he didn't want to be talked to in the morning: this didn’t worry me. because I can always catch up with my reading and though I love to talk, I love to read better, However.

I am now looking tor another ride into work and I don't think "IV con- ditions are unreasonable; he should get to work on time tour days out of five: he should be a good (Le. reasonably carefull driver; he should give me fair warning if hex gomg to work late and it would be nice if he smiled “hen 1 got into the cur I do not want him to play With my knees drive at more than tio mph through thick traffic or try to women me to his purtr. church oi union. I, this too much to ask? Another distinct memory is sitting and droning out \erses ttom the Bible with the rest of the class and it meaning absolutely muting to me _. certainly it didn't give me or the others any spiritual training because I recall that our only interest m the Bible in those days was looking up "the rude bits" when the teach- er wasn't looking. I also remember vividly having a violent, emo- 'nsal, hair-pulling donnybrook with a pretty girl named Barbara (Continued on Page 15) ' "t't_wtsesstgrttirtterttseattieqttris morning that! I t. .
