A small plot of ground had been allotted her for her own use, and there every spring for the last four years her precious flowers had bloomed and had filled her eyes with brightness and her soul with gladness. Morning-glories and nasturtiums were the surest to bloom. They climbed the strings so gracefully and turned the old weather-beaten fence where they grew into a tapestry of gorgeous dyes.,“You must do it,” he spelled. His stiffened fingers must have carried authority, for she nodded; and he saw her get a chair and stand with it, ready to do his bidding.,“She’s at Vine Hill—miles away; we’ll beat her if we hurry.” His words were a bit breathless.，As Mrs. Wopp was preparing for bed that night, she recalled the sensation the sight of her reckless offspring had given her.，The work went on, each length at the first possible opportunity resuming its state of strict neutrality and refusing to be drawn into negotiations.，“Their knifes bin too dull, and she must quick be done,” Max apologized to Billy on his inspection trips.“Try agin, Mose, now not too hard!

One by one he gathered each “attraction,” and herded them all to Jimmy’s big barn, where the procession was to form.

He stuck closer to his books. His teacher told them the boy stood at the head of his class. “Jimmy Dorr may be a rival if he feels like work, which isn’t probable. Jean’s accident last year put her behind, otherwise the boys would have to work much harder if either excelled her.” Yet even these welcome words did not account for some things the mother quietly observed; Billy’s growing promptness, better attention, and memory for matters outside of play. He was more silent, too; and there was less hammering and whistling in the shop.,“Gosh! Wisht Betty was here right this minute. Mebbe I’m dyin’. Hope nobody starts twangin’ a harp. My nose is worser’n ever!”,“Please,” answered the discomfited youth, “I aint never seen a ship of no kind.”,Moses regained his equilibrium and as the water came just to his hips he turned to retrace his way to the steps down which he had wandered.,“Hooray, Billy!
