' we find, are alwavs succoslul on a party menu. As an elegant first course for a com pany meal, we like to serve them in the shell. To do this, we cut the unpeelcd avocados in half, twist them apart and remove the seeds. Then we fill the cavities with a dressing made of olive oil, wine vinegar, salt, freshly-ground pepper and mustard with or with out the addition of a little catchup or chili sauce. Some' mcj, Ino, we fill the cav Hies with seafood or chicken salad and use them as a main course for a ladies' lunch. Or for a buffet party when we want an interesting accompaniment for baked ham, we may fill the cavi ties with a mixture of chopped fresh raw vegetables that have been tossed with French dressing. Another parly success is a mold of which the main ingredients arc avocado. unflavored gelatine, mayonnaise, lemon or lime juice and other seasonings. This mold made by the following recipe, lands up well, cuts beautifully and has an enchanting pale green color. The citrus Juice and mavon- naise in this recipe are added in jusi me right amounts for good flavor and to keep the mold from turning dark even if it la held overnight.- For a ladies' lunch, the mold may be made in ring form and the center filled with seafood or chicken salad. Or it may be put into a large fancy fluted moid and turned out on a large round platter; It may then be surrounded with thin slices of smoked tongue or baked ham and a ring 01 watercress.
