well. or sings well. or dances well. or talks
well; il. in word. she pleases. why. In

be told Of il? Don't blirt it our before
everybody. That will only serve to make
her feel uncomfortable and make you a,,-
pear ridiculous. Say i, quietly when op-
portunity offers. but say it strongly. Con-
vey the idea distinctly and fully. SO that
there may be no mistake about it. But
don't say it ''ofticially' Formally is
