    Molly Mcintire: Summary

    She was from a small family who would do anything they could to be a part of the war effort. Mrs. Gilford, a woman who seemed to be living with them and helping take care of the children, made the turnips from her “victory Garden” so they could save money and not buy canned goods. Knowing she would get in trouble for not eating the turnips, Molly abandoned her plate till her mother came home and saw what she left behind. Being the supporter of the family, Mrs. McIntire Knew that times were hard, and turnips were not the tastiest thing in the world. So with a little sugar and words of wisdom, Mrs. McIntire turned the turnips into something delicious. With one obstacle passed, Molly had more important things to worry about, her Halloween costume. Not wanting to be wasteful, Mrs. McIntire shot down ideas that would be costly and outrageous, like Molly’s Cinderella costume idea. Instead, molly and her friends made grass skirts and paper flower necklaces and went as hula dancers. But as the night evened, Ricky sprayed all the girls with water, ruining their costumes. Wanting to get even with her brother, Molly and her friends came up with the idea to embarrass his as much as possible. So the three girls gathered all of the young boy’s underwear and dumped them on top of Ricky’s crush, Dolores. While they did this they chanted, “"I see London, I see France, Those are Ricky's underpants!” But it wasn’t too soon, Mrs. McIntire shows up, disappointed, and orders all the children to clean up the messes they’ve…

    To Kill a Mockingbird Newspaper Article

    In the early hours of the morning of Saturday 14th December, the house of Miss Maudie Atkinson, 48, caught fire. By approximately 1:15 am, the whole town was filing out of their house to see what was going on and watch in awe as flames devoured their well-loved neighbours’ house. ‘At the front door, I saw fire spewing from Miss Maudie’s dining room window. It looked like a pumpkin.’ Said Jean Louise ‘Scout’ Finch, 7. Luckily for Miss Atkinson, the men of the town were only to glad to help. ‘The men of Maycomb, in all degrees of dress and undress, took furniture from Miss Maudie’s house. ‘It was awful, just awful, I’m so glad I can help poor Miss Maudie after such an ordeal.’ Said Miss Stephanie Crawford, 63, who Miss Maudie is living with until her house is rebuilt. After watching the fire for what seemed a long time, people started growing curious of why nothing was being done to put the fire out. They soon saw why. ‘The old fire truck, killed by the cold, was being pushed from town by a crowd of men.’ But the trouble didn’t stop there as once the fire truck got to the fire and ‘the men attached it’s hose to the hydrant, the hose burst and water shot up, tinkling down onto the pavement. By 2:00 am, the fire was well into the second floor.…
