1 cup brown sugar

1 cup white sugar

3/4 cup butter

1 cup shortening

3 eggs, well beaten

3 cups flour

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp. soda

1 tsp. cinnamon

1 tsp. cloves

Cream sugar and shortening. Add eggs and beat well. Mix and sift remaining dry ingredients. Add to first mixture, mixing well. Add enough sifted flour so that you can work dough into long, round roll or press it into freezing tray or refrigerator. Let chill thoroughly for about 3 hours. Slice thin and bake on cookie sheets. Pre-heat oven temperature to 400 F. Bake for 7 minutes or until light brown.
