  Did Private Quelch change after being assigned permanently to the cookhouse duties? If not, give reasons for your answer.

Answer:

                  No, Private Quelch did not change even after being assigned permanently to cookhouse duties. There also he showed his intelligence in cooking methods. One day, when others were peeling potatoes, the Professor strongly protested against the unscientific and unhygienic methods of peeling potatoes. He then started giving a lecture to others on how to protect the vitamin values while peeling potatoes. This showed that old habits die hard.
