able a girl to form personal
friendships easily. She limits

be a professional man, not a

Miss Gray looked at the anxious
face before her with kindly eyes
and said. bill is 10 years old.
He has years of growth ahead
of him. He is intelligent. He is
friendly. He is interested in all
that goes on about him and
takes part in whatever goes on.

think they know what that is.
Sometimes they do, but not al
ways.

To Simmer

When you find the word Sim
mer" in recipe, remember that
1t means to cook in liquid just
below the boiling point. If you
watch the food that is simmer
ing, you'll see that bubbles form
slowly and break below the sur
face of the liquid. Always use
low heat when simmering food.
