Betsy took the gas mask to the second grade for Show & Tell. Her grown-up cousin had brought it home from service in the army for her brothers. I watched from the porch as she came home from school, strutting proudly up the street wearing the gas mask. She was followed closely by a second grade boy who was obviously smitten. He lived a few streets away so I had to give him a ride home.
