Toms aunt said he had to paint the fence. It was thirty yards long and three yards high! Tom painted a small corner, and then he sat down under a tree to have a rest. Soon the boy who were free would come along and make fun of him. Just then, he had a wonderful idea. He picked up his brush and went back to work. Ben Rogers came along the road. He sang happily, with an apple in one hand. “Im going swimming,” said Ben. “Do you want to come? Oh, but you have to work, dont you?” “Work?” he said. “I dont think that this is work. Its fun. Does a boy get a chance like this every day?” Ben thought about this. Tom went on painting. Ben was watching Toms every move. He was getting more and more interested. After awhile, he said, “Tom, will you let me do some painting?” Tom said, “No, Ben, I cant. You see, Aunt Polly wants it to be done properly. Im the only one that can do it right.” “Oh, please, Tom,” begged Ben. “Ill be really careful. Ill give you half of my apple. Ill give you all of it!” “Well, all right, Ben,” said Tom. “But you must be careful.” He gave Ben his brush with worry on his face but joy in his heart.
