OLD FASHIONED TEA CAKES 
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
Pinch salt
1/2 cup Crisco
1/2 tsp. vinegar
1/2 tsp. baking soda
2 1/2 cups plain flour

Melt Crisco, blend in sugar. Beat egg well; add. Add pinch of salt. Mix vinegar with baking soda; add to mixture. Stir in flour (handful at a time. May not actually use all 2 1/2 cups). Pour into cloth; roll until firm and very thin. Cut and bake at 400°F until brown. (Will have to watch carefully as they burn quickly.)
