"Now it's my turn," Sue said, and down she came. Though she was a girl
Sue could slide down a rail almost as well as could Bunny. In fact, she
had played with her brother so much that she could do many of the things
that small boys do. And Bunny surely thought that Sue was as good a chum
as any of his boy playmates.
"Now it's my turn again!" exclaimed the little blue-eyed chap, as he
went up the stairs, his feet making a loud noise in the empty house. For
some time Bunny and Sue played at sliding down the banister rail, and
then Bunny remembered what they had first come into the house for.
"Let's go to look for that red paint," he said.
"All right," agreed Sue. Her little legs were beginning to get tired
from running up the stairs so often.
Back up to the second floor went the children, looking through the
vacant rooms. But no paint pots did they see.
"I guess all the paint is outside," said Bunny. "We'll go down and get
some."
"Maybe the man wouldn't like us to take it," said Sue.
"We'll pay him for it, if he wants money," Bunny replied, as though he
had plenty.
