1/2 cup quick cooking oatmeal

Bring sugar and water to boil. Stir in rhubarb, boil. Reduce heat, simmer 5 minutes.

Sift flour and cinnamon together. Mix in oatmeal and sugar. Cut in margarine (butter) very finely, or rub in with fingertips.

it is all about the butter. i prefer to use that crap out of the tub so it is nice and soft. then the mix needs to end up so it is not to dry and not to buttery.
