The latter had tidied up the kitchen and dining room. The back kitchen would have to remain as it was until later. And Janice felt that she would like to get hold of Arlo Weeks, Junior, and make him clean up that kitchen!
She heard a step on the porch flooring. The door of the summer kitchen was seldom locked. Was Arlo Junior down there? That boy was constantly getting into trouble with the neighbors. There was a regular feud between Olga Cedarstrom and Arlo Junior. Olga had chased him half a block only the other day, threatening him with a broom. And the cats!

"He'll help me off with my clothes and get me into bed here. I shall be all right."
