Cream the butter; add the sugar and beat until light and fluffy. Dissolve
the baking soda in the water and add, stirring well. Add the oatmeal and
ginger, mixing well. The mixture should be fairly firm. If necessary, add a
little more oatmeal. Knead lightly on a floured surface. Preheat oven to
300 degrees. Press the mixture in a buttered baking dish, about 8 x 12
