History. So often it's the detail that gets lost. So this is interesting as a list of new boys' duties at boarding school for the first year they were there (I wrote this list at the time, in 1975). This in fact was the last year that this system was in effect.
OBSERVATION: The list ends "and so on". There was a lot more. Holding radio aerials in one's fingers to improve reception, doing homework for seniors, working the garden, et cetera. "Make beds" sounds simple. I made eleven beds every morning, apart from my own.
