Bread Sticks

From My Best 250 Recipes by Sarah Tyson Rorer, 1907. Section 103 of 124.

Roll a portion of the twentieth century bread out in long, narrow strips about the size of a lead pencil; cut them in lengths to fit the bread-stick pans; put each in its own compartment and cover in a warm place for thirty minutes; brush with water, and bake in a quick oven for fifteen minutes.

Old Maids

Shape a portion of twentieth century bread in round biscuits about the diameter of a silver dollar and half an inch thick. Flour the bread board or cloth; place them so they cannot touch each other; cover and stand in a warm place until they are very light, for about one hour. Heat slowly an ordinary cake griddle; grease lightly; put on the "old maids"; bake slowly for fifteen minutes and then turn them. Bake for twenty-five minutes.
