TIMES were tough, so Ollie decided to hire out as a painter. He was hired to paint the Lutheran church and he was doing well until he reached the steeple. By then, Ollie saw he was running low on paint. So, he decided to stretch the paint by thinning it out with some turpentine. As he neared the top of the steeple, he witnessed a flash of lightning and rolling thunder, accompanied by a voice from the heavens:
“Ollie . . . Ollie . . . Repaint! . . . And thin no more.”
