noon
There were too many of them in Cape 's End to get excited about any of them . One day he heard some women on the beach talking about how these clothes had `` found '' Agnes -- as if she had been lost . Mrs. MacCrea showed Agnes how to do her hair in a way that went with her clothes . One noon when Joe got home early because it rained and he could n't paint , when he went up-stairs he saw Myrtie trying to do this to _ her _ hair . Well , it just could n't be _ done _ to Myrtie 's hair . Myrtie did n't have hair you could do what you pleased with . She was all red in the face with trying , and being upset because she could n't do it .
