      Preheat oven to 375~.  Grease baking sheets with shortening. In large
   bowl, combine shortening, sugar, egg, milk, vanilla and almond extracts.
   Beat at medium speed of electric mixer until well-blended. In another bowl,
   combine oats, flour, baking soda and salt.  Mix into creamed mixture at low
   speed just until blended.  Stir in chocolates, cherries and almonds. Drop
   rounded tablespoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto prepared baking sheets.
   Bake 10 to 12 minutes, or until lightly browned. Do not overbake. Cool 2
   minutes on baking sheet.  Remove cookies to foil to cool completely. Makes
