To keen Custard From curdlina.

When baking custard in the oven
set the dish In a dripping pnn with a
little sweet water in the tin. 1t Is so
simple that 1t seems unnecessary, but
1t prevents water from gathering in

custard may also be easily changed by
adding cold water TO the dripping pan.
Thus the custard is kept from curdling.

eyes and ears of the army. A screen
of men On horseback can travel far
in advance of a marching army and
by their great ability to get around
quickly, discover, without grave dan
ger to themselves, dangers to the
slower army coming behind They
can figure out the lay OF the land,
sight the enemy ahead, and learn a
