Every Sunday, Mrs. Green set the entire house in commotion. There was incessant going and coming at every moment of the day, great calling up and down stairs, shouting from room to room, and opening and shutting of doors.

Followed by her housekeeper, she journeyed through the rooms, investigating each corner, ferreting through every old box and trunk, groping about on the top shelves of closets, peering into bags, and exasperating the housekeeper with her persistence to clean the uncleanable.

At last, guests arrived, wearing their finest with bright smiles displayed on their faces.

Drinks were brought out. The company began to be very gay.

More drinks were poured.

More guests arrived. Chairs and tables were fetched in from the adjoining rooms. Guests, fluttering from the kitchen to the dining room, collided with each other in their desire to have them in their hostess graces.
