This is an interesting story which shows that it pays to show off one‘s knowledge. It is good to have wide knowledge but it becomes irritating when we try to show it off in season and out of season. A trainee soldier named Quelch has amazing knowledge of everything. That is really very nice fine. But he never loses any opportunity to make a show of it. He tries to outwit even his instructors and makes them feel small. Being fed up with his this habit, and instructor named Corporal Turnbull allots him permanent cookhouse duties. Thus in spite of all his knowledge, ProfessorQuelch fails to earn any rank as a soldier, what to say of earning a commission.
