    1/2 tsp soda
    1 tsp baking powder
    1/4tsp salt

    Cut in as for pastry:
    1 cup butter or margarine

    Add:
    I cup brown sugar
    1 1/2 cups oatmeal

    Recipe



    Press 1/2 of this mixture into a 9x 13" pan (spray with cooking spray) add a layer of filling, then sprinkle on the rest of the oatmeal mixture and pat gently. Bake at 350° for 30- 35 minutes.

    FILLING~
    1/2 lb pitted dates
    1/2 cup cold water
    1/2 cup orange juice
    cook over medium-low heat untill the filling is thick and smooth. More water may be added to keep from scorching.

    My sister hates dates, so she uses a can of cherry pie filling in place of the date filling
