There the position waiting for me was that of a house-master. About half of the teachers held positions of house-master concurrently. I was one of them. In the daytime teaching English was my job, and at night the job of house-master remained. Once or twice in a week, night duty waited for me. Other teachers were always complaining about the night duty, because it was such a hard work that they could not sleep at all over night. Naughty boys ( and I am very sorry to say, I was one of them) were always causing troubles at night. Some boys ran away from the dormitory and others were bullying their friends secretly. The job itself seemed very interesting for me and as for me it was very enjoyable.
In the second year in the school, the principal and vice-principals appointed me as a chief of house-master. It was the very beginning of my long and winding road to be a TEACHER of capital letters.
