Paper Paste

1/3 cup non self raising wheat flour
2 Tablespoons sugar
1 cup water
¼ teaspoon oil of cinnamon

Mix flour and sugar in a saucepan. Gradually add water, stirring vigorously to break up lumps.

Cook over low heat until clear, stirring constantly.

Remove from stove and add oil of cinnamon. Stir until well blended. Makes about 1 cup. Spread paste with a brush or tongue depressor. Soft, smooth, thick and white, paper paste has a good spreading consistency and is especially appropriate for use with small children or for any paste up work. The paste can be stored in a covered jar for several weeks without refrigeration.
