who taught him how to cane, was it at college when he training to be a teacher, did he get a book of rules from the education board saying only a cane on the bottom and to raise your arm above shoulder level? I do know that canes had to be ordered and were made for the job. i have also often wondered if he was ever caned when he was at school, if so maybe he just followed tradition and copied the way he was caned. if he was caned he would also know how much of a sting he was giving to the culprit bending over in front of him.
