1 cup fine oatmeal 1 teaspoon salt
1 cup Rolled Oats 1/8 teaspoon soda
2 cups flour 1/4 cup butter or lard
1/4 cup sugar 1/2 cup hot water
Mix first six ingredients. Melt shortening in water and add to first mixture. Toss on a floured board, pat, and roll as thinly as possible. Shape with a cutter, or with a sharp knife cut in strips. Bake on a buttered sheet in a slow oven. These are well adapted for childrens luncheons, and are much enjoyed by the convalescent, taken with a glass of milk.
