​From the School Magazine 75 Years Ago
Extracts from the Devil’s Log Book, 1950 – R Munson (Upper VI)
​
March 10th - All the escalators to “Hell Proper” broke today, and the refrigerators refused to work – climate does not suit them.
April 1st – Set examination papers for entrance to Tempters’ League. All devils passing this exam must wear black woolly stockings for two months in the hottest season.
April 14th – Interviewed several new recruits for the Tempters’ League this morning – all rejected. Scranning worm seems to be slackening in his recruit work. Reprimanded him for neglect of duty.
May 13th – got my new false teeth from the Devilment of Denti-fractures – two sizes too big.
​
June 5th – Dispatched a devil on a night mare to a victim taking Higher School Certificate. Sent a battalion of junior devils on night ponies to the humans taking school examinations, to remind them of our motto, “Make play while the sun shines”.
​
June 15th – new detachable tail arrived this morning. Sent old one to be “permed”.
July 7th – Strike reported in Nether Region. Strikers demanding higher wages for overtime.
​
July 9th – Met delegates from Stokers’ Union. Promised them the next consignment from the Stratosphere to help them in their arduous task.
​
July 21st – Pleasing report fom Temptress dispatched to CCHS. Many conquests made. Learned of one, RBM, who disobeys constantly repeated commands to come to me. Must visit her myself on the evening prior to the publication of Higher School Certificate results.
