 Jane had made her first kill and she was very proud of it. It was not a very formidable animal—only a hare; but it marked an epoch1 in her existence.

Now it was different—she had something to cook and her mouth watered for the flesh of her kill. She would grill6 it above glowing embers. Jane hastened to her tree. Among the treasures she had gathered in the bed of the stream were several pieces of volcanic7 glass, clear as crystal. She sought until she had found the one in mind, which was convex. Then she hurried to the ground and gathered a little pile of powdered bark that was very dry, and some dead leaves and grasses that had lain long in the hot sun. Near at hand she arranged a supply of dead twigs8 and branches—small and large.
 
Vibrant9 with suppressed excitement she held the bit of glass above the tinder, moving it slowly until she had focused the sun's rays upon a tiny spot. She waited breathlessly. How slow it was! Were her high hopes to be dashed in spite of all her clever planning? No! A thin thread of smoke rose
