For her own
part she had never so much as been to the pictures in her life, let alone to a
stage-play, and she felt that even in readmg stage-plays there was a very grave
danger,’ etc , etc She gave way, however, on being informed that Mr
Shakespeare was dead This seemed to reassure her Another parent wanted
y86 A Clergyman’s
Daughter
more attention to his child’s handwriting, and another thought French was a
waste of time, and so it went on, until Dorothy’s carefully arranged time-table
was almost m ruins Mrs Creevy gave her clearly to understand that whatever
the parents demanded she must do, or pretend to do In many cases it was next
door to impossible, for it disorganized everything to have one child studying,
for instance, arithmetic while the rest of the class were doing history or
geography But m private schools the parents’ word is law Such schools exist,
like shops, by flattering their customers, and if a parent wanted his child taught
nothing but cat’s-cradle and the cuneiform alphabet, the teacher would have to
agree rather than lose a pupil
The fact was that the parents were growing perturbed by the tales their
children brought home about Dorothy’s methods They saw no sense
whatever in these new-fangled ideas of making plasticine maps and reading
poetry, and the old mechamcal routine which had so horrified Dorothy struck
them as eminently sensible They became more and more restive, and their
letters were peppered with the word ‘practical’, meaning m effect more
handwriting lessons and more arithmetic And even their notion of arithmetic
was limited to addition, subtraction, multiplication and ‘practice’, with long
division thrown m as a spectacular tour deforce of no real value Very few of
them could have worked out a sum in decimals themselves, and they were not
particularly anxious for their children to be able to do so either
However, if this had been all, there would probably never have been any
serious trouble The parents would have nagged at Dorothy, as all parents do,
but Dorothy would finally have learned-as, again, all teachers finally
learn- that if one showed a certain amount of tact one could safely ignore them
But there was one fact that was absolutely certain to lead to trouble, and that
was the fact that the parents of all except three children were Nonconformists,
whereas Dorothy was an Anglican It was true that Dorothy had lost her
faith-mdeed, for two months past, m the press of varying adventures, had
hardly thought either of her faith or of its loss But that made very little
difference, Roman or Anglican, Dissenter, Jew, Turk or infidel, you retain the
habits of thought that you have been brought up with Dorothy, born and bred
m the precmcts of the Church, had no understanding of the Nonconformist
mind With the best will in the world, she could not help doing things that
would cause offence to some of the parents
Almost at the beginning there was a skirmish over the Scripture
lessons-twice a week the children used to read a couple of chapters from the
Bible Old Testament and New Testament alternately- several of the parents
writing to say, would Miss Millborough please not answer the children when
they asked questions about the Virgin Msary, texts about the Virgin Mary were
to be passed over m silence, or, if possible, missed out altogether But it was
Shakespeare, that immoral writer, who brought things to a head The girls had
worked their way through Macbeth , pining to know how the witches’ prophecy
was to be fulfilled.

the cry everywhere;
The flags flung out from the steeples of churches, and from all the public
buildings and stores;
The tearful parting--the mother kisses her son--the son kisses his mother;

Silent cannons--soon to cease your silence,
