A . once. She was married at seventeen. At thirty she looked old. She had borne six children, ' And in addition to her housework, Had taken in washings To help out the uncertain family income. Her husband worked when he could get it . . . There was always work for her. She forgot her gay, dancing, youth; She even forgot to care how she looked. Then, all at once, youth came back. An itinerant dentist visited the village, Offering a complete new dental equipment For a price she happened to have. (One of her washing customers Had let her bill run And paid up all at once.) She ' d had the new teeth only a week When she decided to go to the dance, At the Grange Hall Saturday night. He could stay home with the young ones. For the first time in years She spent some time on her clothes. She tried her hair in various ways Before the cracked mirror over the sink. She practiced smiling. So the new white teeth would show. That night she walked the three cold miles To the lamp-lighted Grange Hall. She stood by the orchestra Enraptured by the lively tunes. She tapped her unasked foot to the music. At the end of a riotous Tempest The drummer put in some extra flourishes. She put back her head And laughed in an abandon of delight. Just as the drummer set his drum down. Her precious teeth flew out of her laughing mouth Right under it. She stood for a moment, stunned. Then she carefully picked up the broken pieces. An old woman walked slowly out of the door And started the three cold miles. Back home. From the book, ' ' Salter Hard ' s Vermont, published bv the Stephen D.iye Press, Inc., Brattleboro, Vermont.
