The yard of Arbor Lodge. In the background are trees, flowers and bushes. The three older Morton boys are playing catch in the yard. Caroline enters in a white apron worn over a calico dress. J. Sterling Morton and the Boy and Girl stand to the side of the stage, watching the scene.
Boys come and wash for supper.
Bring little Carl with you. Carl isn't with us, Mother. We haven't seen him. Joy, run down to the creek and look all along the bank. Paul, look in the barn.
