Dear teachers,

Would you be kind enough to tell me whether I am right with my interpretation of the expression in bold in the following sentence?

Katharine was determined to show her paces as a housewife and win their confidence.

show one’s paces = show one's abilities, skills

Thanks for your efforts.

Regard,

V
