Personal Notes:
Living on the coast, "snowballs" (a.k.a. snow-cones) were something we all loved, and Miss Milles made the very best! There was nothing better than a strawberry snowball on a hot summer day. When I was growing up we were taught from birth, I guess, to always say yes Ma'am, yes Sir to all of our elders along with addressing Mr., Mrs. and Miss. That is just the way it was, and if you didn't address people properly you heard about it.
