LETTUCE WITH RUSSIAN DRESSING

Use California lettuce if obtainable. Remove outside leaves and cut lettuce in halves and cut each half in two or four pieces according to the size of the head. Let stand in ice water until crisp. Place in cheesecloth on the ice or in a covered pail until needed. Serve on salad plates with

Russian Dressing or with Thousand Island Dressing.

Dressing may be passed separately if preferred.
