Mrs. Tweksbury consented, and when Joan looked at the pink, soft palm a spirit of mischief possessed her.
Here Esther, the early riser of the family, created a diversion by coming in fully dressed and announcing that Mammy Lou was willing to teach as many girls as cared to come after breakfast how to make beaten biscuit.
