Combine shortening, salt, and vanilla. Add sugar, then beaten eggs and beat thoroughly. Add flour and mix well. Drop from teaspoon on baking sheets greased with shortening. (Or put through a cookie press.) Let stand a few minutes, then flatten cookies by stamping with a glass covered with a damp cloth. Bake in a 375-degree oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until delicately browned.
