Betty's brown eyes laughed over the rim of the glass of water she had drawn at the sink.
"I can't stand a sunbonnet," she declared vehemently, returning the glass to the nickel holder under the shelf. "I know just how a horse feels with blinders on. You know you wouldn't like it, Mrs. Arnold, if I pulled up half your onion sets in mistake for weeds because I couldn't see what I was doing."
Mrs. Arnold shook her head over the white ruffle she was fluting with nervous, skillful fingers.....
