"H-r-r-rrp!" barked Major Pater, glaring at Tommy Tucker as though his eyes would burn holes right through that boy's jacket. Tommy sprang to attention. He was in citizen's dress, as was the major; but Tommy was sure the martinet knew him. "What do you mean, young man, by pouring a bucket of slush over my head and shoulders?" demanded the angry Major. "Please, sir, if you'll let me wipe it off "
They shook hands. Then Major Pater shot another command at Tommy: "H-r-r-rrp!" The rest of the "live wire octette" even Timothy and Libbie were highly delighted by the outcome of Tommy's joke. For, if there is fun in such a practical joke as Tommy had tried to carry through, they thought there was double fun in seeing the biter bitten! "Now will you be good?" crowed his brother, Ted.
Tommy had produced his own handkerchief and made a feeble attempt to attack the melting snow on the Major's shoulders. "H-r-r-rrp!" barked the Major again, and Tommy translated it as meaning "as you were" and came once more to attention in the middle of the aisle. One could not really help the angry gentleman, if one was kept standing in that ridiculous position.
