After you get rested, Oscar, said Mr. Preston, who was just leaving for the store,
gpt
I want you to shovel a path in front of the house.
human
What is the use? inquired Oscar.
gpt
The storm is n't over yet, and if I make a path, it will fill right up again.
human
No it won't, replied his father.

I don't think it will storm much longer; and the snow is so light, now, that you can shovel it easily, but if you leave it till noon, it maybe trodden down hard. You need not clean off the whole side-walk now; only make a comfortable passage-way, and perhaps I will help you finish the job at night.
