Mildred Tisdel

Rush's friend from school. Hates Smelly Clark "like you hate your underwear."  She has a strong personality. Had her memory book filled with fake notes from Vic, who pretended to be movie stars and other known personalities.  Rush said: "She can put away meat and potatoes 'til who hung the cat. No, the fathead thinks everybody loves her. [...] She's just that conceited. Why, if Mildred was a boy instead of a girl, I'd paste her one upside the snoot."  Once said she felt like a violin and then said she felt like a rainbow. Sometimes shops at Yamilton's.  Lives next door to Hilda Reagan.  Is normally a very happy person but sometimes she quivers with rage. Lost a buckle to her shoe. Has never been to Funk's Grove.  Got mad at Nicer Scott because he gave her a bad grade - so she pasted him one upside the snoot. Rush made plans to go over to her house so that she could straighten his hair out after Smelly Clark cut it.  Takes music lessons of some sort.  Her sister is Margaret.  She lives on Kelsey Street. Told Russell he had a noble head and suggested he wear his hair in a pompadour.  Was a member of the "Blue Light Sunday School" class.  Asked Russell to ride Howard by her house so she could show off.  Said publicly was Rush wasn't good looking.  Can sew pleats.
