1 cup celery, diced.
1 cup grape fruit, diced.
Cooked Mayonnaise Dressing.
Cut the grape fruit into halves and with a sharp knife cut a circle through the flesh, near the edge of the skin. Remove the flesh by scooping out carefully with a spoon, and cut into cubes or small bits. Put to drain while preparing the celery.
Wash, brush, and scrape celery and put into cold water for an hour or more. Drain, dry on clean towels and cut into small pieces. Mix the celery and the grape fruit with Cooked Mayonnaise Dressing. Serve in the shells of the grape fruit, prepared by removing the skin or "nag" on the inside and cutting notches in the edge with a pair of shears. Serve on a lettuce leaf.

1 1/2 cups cut dates.

When thoroughly chilled, mix the apples and dates and stir in the Golden Dressing. Garnish with lettuce or with nasturtium leaves.
