--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   3      cups          brown sugar
   3      cups          butter or margarine
   6      cups          oatmeal
   1      tablespoon    baking soda
   3      cups          flour
   2                    eggs

Preparation:

Put all this in a huge bowl and mash, knead, squeeze, (see below). Then form it into small balls, midway between filbert size and English walnut size. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Butter the bottom of a small glass, dip it in granulated sugar and mash the balls flat. Keep doing it. You need butter the glass bottom only once or twice but re-dip it in sugar for each ball. Then bake at 350 for 10 to 12 minutes. Let them sit just a bit before taking up from cookie sheet.
