In the beginning, when Mrs. Thompson sees Helton for the first time she makes an awful judgement just by looking at his appearance. She basically judges Helton by the way he looked and what he was doing. Eventually, she feels bad about her negative thoughts she had of him because he had done such a great job in the milk house. Farther on in the story, the Thompsons get a little irritated with Helton because he does not communicate with them hardly at all, and if he does it is not very polite in the eyes of the Thompson family. Mrs. Thompson describes it as, “sitting down at the table with a disembodied spirit” (Porter 236). They even disregarded the fact that Helton, even though it was a minor situation, assaulted their two sons. Nevertheless, they dealt with Helton’s false because he is a hard worker that is making them money. Porter uses the relationship of the Thompsons and Helton to relate it monopoly capitalism and how it relates to immigrant
