Children cannot discuss such questions; it does them harm." "Agents' reports are not always to be believed," said Voronok restrainedly. Doulebov flushed slightly and said in an annoyed manner. "We don't maintain agents, but we have many acquaintances. We have lived here a long time. It is impossible not to hear what is told us."
Doulebov asked with a frown: "Surely they are not always like that?" "Always, Vladimir Grigorievitch," replied Trirodov. "They have got used to it." "But it is indecent!" said Madame Doulebova. "It is the one thing that is decent," retorted Trirodov. The windows of the house in the small glade were wide open. The twitter of birds was audible and the fresh, delicious aroma of flowers entered in.
"And what do you call pornography?" asked Trirodov. "Don't you know?" said Doulebov with a sarcastic smile. "Yes, I know," said Trirodov. "In my conception every written lechery and disfigurement of beautiful truth to gratify the low instincts of the man-beast that is pornography. Your thrice-assured State school that is the true example of pornography."
Doulebov asked the class to compose it in their own words. The boys and girls were about to pick up their pens, but Doulebov stopped them and delivered a long and tedious dissertation on how to write the given composition. Then he said: "Now you can write it." The children wrote. It was quiet. The writers handed in their papers to their instructresses.
When Trirodov happened to be in the Headmaster's office the conversation usually turned on documents concerning the instructresses and various petty formalities. The calumnies of Ostrov and of his friends in the Black Hundred disturbed Doulebov. To avoid unpleasantness Doulebov decided to take advantage of the first opportunity to close Trirodov's school.
The Headmaster of the National Schools, Actual State Councillor, Grigory Vladimirovitch Doulebov, had his eye on a higher position in the educational department. That was why he tried to gain favour by showing a meticulous attentiveness to his duties. His perseverance was astonishing. He never gave an impression of haste.
"What a blockhead!" said Shabalov with conviction. Trirodov looked at him in astonishment. He said quietly: "The sincerity of religious mood is surely the best indication of a saving faith." "We'll discuss that later," piped out Doulebov sternly. "This is not a convenient moment." "As you like," said Trirodov with a smile. "It is all the same to me when you discuss it."
She was very jealous of her influence and maintained it with great energy. At Doulebov's invitation the Vice-Governor visited the town school. In inviting the Vice-Governor Doulebov had especially in view the idea of taking him to the Trirodov school. In the event of the school being closed, he wanted to say that it was done at the instigation of the governmental authorities.
Doulebov, red with agitation, rose from his chair and, going up to Trirodov, said to him: "It is absolutely necessary that I should have a talk with you." "At your service," said Trirodov, not without some astonishment. "Please continue," said Doulebov to Shabalov. Doulebov and Trirodov went into the next room. Their conversation soon assumed a very sharp character.
And here the higher authorities have announced their coming, and these people pay absolutely no attention to it." At last the small gate opened, suddenly and noiselessly. A boy, sunburnt and barefoot, in a white shirt and short white breeches, stood on the threshold. The angry Doulebov said in his thin, shrill voice: "Is this Trirodov's school?" "Yes," said the boy.
