"Not a bad job for an eleven-year-old, Pat." "I could do it better, only I had to make a strip from a piece I found in Aunt Julia's scrap-bag," Patricia explained. "Patricia!"

An eleven-year-old boy was in the lead. He was the oldest of the five children. He carried on his head a box filled with tea, sugar, and bread. An eight-year-old child followed him carrying a teakettle and cooking pots. Next came a three-year-old who held tight to little Janie's hand. Then came Mary carrying a baby girl and a bundle of food. The children slipped in the mud.
For one brief moment you must admire Rooney with me as he receives, seats, manipulates, and chaffs his guests. He is twenty-nine.

"Johnnie," called her mother's voice from the back of the rickety old wagon as the girl was turning in toward the steps. "Sis' Johnnie Sis' Johnnie!" crowed Deanie; and then she was aware of sober, eleven-year-old Milo climbing down over the wheel and trying to help Lissy, while Pony got in his way and was gravely reproved.
