By using the context, we can determine that the meaning of the word "futile" in "Marigolds" is "fruitless" or "pointless".

- What the narrator, Lizabeth, means is that is was pointless<u> to wait for things to get better, for poverty to just disappear.</u>
- The context and setting of the story is the <u>Great Depression</u>. Lizabeth and her family live in a very <u>poor neighborhood</u>, and things are only getting worse due to the <u>awful economic situation</u> of the country.
- Thus, waiting seemed futile, fruitless, pointless. Nothing was going to change.
