      Yield: 4 Dozen
 
      1 c  Shortening
      1 c  Sugar
      2 ts Ginger, ground
    1/2 ts Salt
      1    Egg; beaten

  Cream shortening, sugar, ginger, and salt.  Add egg; mix well.
  Combine soda and molasses; stir well until frothy, and add to creamed
  mixture. Add 2 cups flour; turn onto a floured board and add enough
  of the remaining flour to make a dough that can be rolled.
  
  Using a small amount of dough at a time, roll to 1/8" thickness; cut
  with a floured 3" cutter.  Place on greased baking sheets; bake at
  375 degrees for 15 minutes. These cookies keep well in a covered
  container.
