Lipstick marks on the Mirror, Who?

Most of you must remember the marble rolling on the dormitory wooden floor at night.
The marbles used to make such a loud noise that everybody would remain awake for a long time.
Naturally, the brothers too used to be disturbed.
One night, when the noise was louder the usual, Bro. Hughes, returned to the dormitory and put on all the lights and awoke everyone of us and made us stand in just our night suits in the winter cold.
We must have stood at least half-an-hour.
After, that, at least on that night there was no more marble rolling.

The following story from Rex barker, tells a similar story in a girl's school and how creatively, the head solved the problem.

Radheshyam

A school head was alerted by the caretaker to a persistent problem in the girls lavatories: some of the girl students were leaving lipstick kisses on the mirrors. The caretaker had left notices on the toilet walls asking for the practice to cease, but to no avail; every evening the caretaker would wipe away the kisses, and the next day lots more kisses would be planted on the mirror. It had become a bit of a game. The head teacher usually took a creative approach to problem solving, and so the next day she asked a few girl representatives from each class to meet with her in the lavatory.

"Thank you for coming," said the head, "You will see there are several lipstick kisses in the mirrors in this washroom.."

Some of the girls grinned at each other.

"As you will understand, modern lipstick is cleverly designed to stay on the lips, and so the lipstick is not easy at all to clean from the mirrors. We have therefore had to develop a special cleaning regime, and my hope is that when you see the effort involved you will help spread the word that we'd all be better off if those responsible for the kisses use tissue paper instead of the mirrors in future..."

At this point the caretaker stepped forward with a sponge squeegee, which he took into one of the toilet cubicles, dipped into the toilet bowl, and then used to clean one of the lipstick-covered mirrors.

The caretaker smiled. The girls departed. And there were no more lipstick kisses on the mirrors.
