Flash from his arms, as

Incarnation, Now: Five Brief

and a Non-Conclusive Ending

-there are just ninety-three of
them-remember that number, girls-nmety-three,’ until Dorothy (she had to
stay in the schoolroom during the
chemistry
lectures, because Mrs Creevy
considered that it didn't do to leave the girls alone with a man) was miserable
with vicarious shame All the lectures* started with the ninety-three elements,
396 A Clergyman’s Daughter
and never got very much further There was also talk of ‘a very interesting
little experiment that I’m going to perform for you next week, girls- very
interesting you’ll find it- we’ll have it next week without fail-a very interesting
little experiment’, which, needless to say, was never performed Mr Booth
possessed no chemical apparatus, and his hands were far too shaky to have
used it even if he had had any The girls sat through his lectures m a suety
stupor of boredom, but even he was a welcome change from handwriting
lessons
The children were never quite the same with Dorothy after the parents’
visit They did not change all m a day, of course They had grown to be fond of
‘old Millie’, and they expected that after a day or two of tormenting them with
handwriting and ‘commercial arithmetic’ she would go back to something
interesting But the handwriting and arithmetic went on, and the popularity
Dorothy had enjoyed, as a teacher whose lessons weren’t boring and who
didn’t slap you, pinch you, or twist your ears, gradually vanished Moreover,
the story of the row there had been over Macbeth was not long m leaking out
The children grasped that old Millie had done something wrong-they didn’t
exactly know what-and had been given a ‘talking to’ It lowered her in their
eyes There is no dealing with children, even with children who are fond of
you, unless you can keep your prestige as an adult, let that prestige be once
damaged, and even the best-hearted children will despise you
So they began to be naughty in the normal, traditional way Before, Dorothy
had only had to deal with occasional laziness, outbursts of noise and silly
giggling fits, now there were spite and deceitfulness as well The children
revolted ceaselessly against the horrible routine They forgot the short weeks
when old Millie had seemed quite a good sort and school itself had seemed
rather fun Now, school was simply what it had always been, and what indeed
you expected it to be-a place where you slacked and yawned and whiled the
time away by pinching your neighbour and trying to make the teacher lose her
temper, and from which you burst with a yell of relief the instant the last lesson
was over Sometimes they sulked and had fits of crying, sometimes they argued
m the maddening persistent way that children have, f Why should we do this?
