Step 1: Mix both sugars and shortening mixing well; add eggs and vanilla.
Step 2: Add flour, soda, and salt and mix well; add oatmeal mixing well again.
Step 3: Roll into rolls about 2 1/2" thick and wrap in wax paper or plastic wrap and put them into the ice box (I put them into the freezer for a very short time so they are quite cold--easier to slice).
Step 4: Take out, one roll at a time, slice thin and place on lightly greased cookie sheet.
Step 5: Bake in 350 degree oven for 5-6 minutes.
