In Chapter 2: Fire on the Mountain the 'shameful knowledge' is the realisation that after they had spent much of their energy building a huge bonfire they had no way of lighting it. Ralph initially avoided making any confession by enquiring of Jack, "Will you... Will you light the fire?" To which Jack managed a mumbled reply about rubbing sticks together and then, to quote from the book... He glanced at Ralph, who blurted out the last confession of incompetence. "Has anyone got any matches?"
