Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The New Schoolmaster Let us imagine some conscientious parent paying a visit to his son, on the middle Saturday of term, at one of the greater Public Schools. He arrives at midday, and has half an hour´s quiet stroll round the green pleasaunces and ancient buildings where perhaps he himself laid the foundations of ´a gentleman´s character,´ and gained that smattering of rather antiquated knowledge of which he is now proud to have forgotten every word. Apart from a subdued hum in the neighbourhood of the class-rooms or the rumbling of a roller on the cricket pitch it is difficult to believe that this is the scene where some four hundred sturdy young beings pass their daily lives. But the clock strikes and the whole scene is transformed. Swarms of book-laden boys of all sizes stampede from the class-room doors, and among them, somewhat grimy and ink-soiled, nor easy to distinguish among so many equally toil-stained black coats, is the eager face of the pride of the family.
