In this Magnet story of the 1920s the firm but fair Mr Quelch decides to cane his entire form.

'Possibly Mr Quelch, having a whole form to cane, limited the number of strokes out of consideration for the muscles of his right arm. But the swishes were well laid on. There is a knack as well as beef in these things, and Mr Quelch undoubtedly had the knack. A wriggling, squirming procession of juniors left the form room and the sounds of woe burdened the air as they faded away down the passage.'
