What characteristics of a tragic hero does Macbeth possess and banquo lack? These are some actions that Mr. Ewell committed. I believe that any man that does those things is trashy. Mayella was unfortunate to be born into the Ewell family because the family has a trashy reputation. Mayella tries to separate herself from the reputation. This quote is when Scout is explaining to the reader that Mayella tries to appear different from her father who doesn't shower.
It also explains that in the Ewell yard which is a dump Mayella grows red geraniums and she takes lots of care of them. I think this proves that Mayella tries not to be trashy. Aunt Alexandra and Atticus' definitions of "trash" are very different. Aunt Alexandra thinks that "trash" is people who are poor, and don't have backgrounds that they can take pride in. Atticus thinks that "trash" is people who don't have good morals and are essentially bad people.
When talking about the trial, Atticus tells Jem that one of the Cunninghams was in the jury and almost acquitted Tom Robinson. After hearing this, Scout wants to bring Walter to dinner. In other words, she thinks about how others would make her look in Maycomb. Aunt Alexandra considers the Ewells trash because they are dirty, have no money, and are viewed as garbage.
