The whole discipline of the school out of lesson hours was in the hands of the two ushers, one of whom was always with the boys in their playground in the school, at meals—in fact, at all times and everywhere, till they were fairly in bed at night.

      Now the theory of private schools is (or was) constant supervision out of school; therein differing fundamentally from that of public schools.

      It may be right or wrong; but if right, this supervision surely ought to be the especial work of the head-master, the responsible person.
