This is a very well worn and stained card, hand written mostly in ink with some notes in pencil.  It is remarkably lacking in instructions, except for the back.  Based on the condition, I believe this is THE recipe for the rolls we’re all so fond of.  I could, of course, be wrong.  Chantal would know for sure. 

2 C milk

2 t salt

1/2 C shortening

1/2 C sugar

4 eggs

2T yeast

1C water

Flour

Let rise twice

double recipe  112 rolls

I used 1 C milk & 2 C water 6T (could be 61) r?

On the back in pencil and pen –

Started rolls 10:10

punch down 11:15

roll out 10-1 (I think this is to mean 10 minutes to 1p, again, could be wrong)

set to raise 1:30

ready to bake 3:30

(I started to bake at 10-4
