"Say, Freshies!" he exclaimed, looking at Frank and Andy, "Don't you know enough to tip your hats to your superiors."

"I do when I see them," spoke Frank quietly.

"What's that?" cried Luke. "Did you hear that, Gerald?"

"I sure did, and I'll make him pay for it. Look here, you two Fresh—"

"They've just come," broke in Jack. "They didn't know it was the custom to tip to the juniors."

"That's their lookout," sneered Gerald. "You can tip twice now, to make up for it."

He paused and glared threateningly at Frank and Andy. Neither of them made a motion toward his cap.

"Well?" fairly shouted the bully.

"If you're through speaking we'll go on," and Frank took a step forward.

"No, you don't! Not until you tip to us!" exclaimed Gerald.
