Scotch Wafers

1 cup Rolled Oats 2 cups flour 1 teaspoon salt 1/8 teaspoon soda 1/4 cup butter or lard 1/2 cup hot water 1/4 cup sugar 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 children's luncheons, and are much enjoyed by the convalescent, taken with a glass of milk. 1 egg 1/4 cup sugar 1/4 cup thin cream 1/4 cup milk
