many different kinds of apples as possible.
Place those of each variety on q separate pile,
SO that they will not get mixed. Proceed then
to pare and core each apple, which should be

guide will be necessary, but il any reasonable
doubt is likely to arise, the bottom of each
plate should have pasted upon it slip OF pa
