PLEASE HELP ME WITH THE MEANING OF THIS QUOTE: "She took careful stock of herself, then combed her hair and tied it back up again. Then she starched and ironed her face, forming it into just what people wanted to see, and opened up the window and cried, “Come heah people! Jody is dead. Mah husband is gone from me.”" -- From "Their Eyes Were Watching God" by Huston
