Members of the upper classes will accordingly remain away from the Y.M.C.A. to-night." "Remember, you fellows," called Bert Dodge, thrusting his head into Dick and Greg's room after return to barracks, "I count upon your strong support to-night." Not a man save two on sick report at cadet hospital was absent when Cadet Hopper, acting as temporary chairman, the plebe class called to order.
Passing the rifle through every movement of the manual of arms, lifting his feet as high as he could, and yet obliged to bring them down noiselessly to the floor, Plebe Briggs quickly began to drip with perspiration. Yet his inquisitors sat by with the judicial gravity of drill sergeants. For ten minutes Mr. Briggs continued this grotesque work.
Without throwing the flap open, Prescott peeped through a slit-like opening. As he did so he saw something that made his eyes flash. The rain was pouring a little less heavily now. Down the company street came a cadet with a pail of water. It was Mr. Briggs, a round faced, laughter loving, somewhat roly poly lad of the plebe class. Just as Mr.
I don't see how they can do anything but expel you from the academy, and it is likely I will have to take the same medicine, as I was your second." "Oh, you're trying to show a bright side; but I tell you, Reynolds, there is something worse than expulsion to follow this!" "What do you mean?" "You heard that plebe Davis declare he would charge me with murder?"
"I'm not going to think of him, now," answered Plebe Prescott over his shoulder. "I have all I can attend to at present." "I'll get him now, Kramer," muttered Spurlock, as he rose.

Coats of tan were compared and newly acquired freckles deplored, as the girls stood about in groups, talking of the delights of the summer vacation just ended. To the readers of "GRACE HARLOWE'S PLEBE YEAR AT HIGH SCHOOL," and "GRACE HARLOWE'S SOPHOMORE YEAR AT HIGH SCHOOL," the girl chums have become familiar figures.
Or, if he felt the need of something really "wild" in the way of diversion, the lucky plebe was permitted to go over to the Academic Building and examine the mineralogical or geological collection!
"You are at liberty to think what you like about it. I have warned you, and you will do well to heed my warning. That is all I have to say." Frank left the tent, and continued on his way. Crowds of cadets gathered here and there near certain "plebe hotels" told where the yearlings were enjoying sport at the expense of the new boys.
Cadet Prescott, midway on his post, came to a halt, bringing his rifle to port arms. "Post number three! Eleven o'clock, and all's well." Nor did the plebe return his rifle to his shoulder and resume pacing until he heard the hail taken up and repeated by the man on number four. Thus the call traveled the rounds, back to number one, and died out.
Leslie had grown desperate, having come to the conclusion that Frank was not to be cajoled into playing poker any more. He now determined, of a sudden, that he would take another tack, and see if he could not anger Merriwell into coming. Hodge remembered that Gage had tried to injure Frank in the past, and the dark-eyed plebe was ready to blaze forth in an instant.
