MELONS

Melons are much nicer if kept on ice until time for serving. A bright red watermelon looks very pretty if cut through the middle crosswise, in points. Cut a piece off each end so as to stand level on the platter. Cantaloupe melons should have the seeds removed before sending to the table. Cut the melon in half, and place a piece of ice on each piece.
