NEW YORK'S SPRING SONG NOW AT ITS LOUDES-

the street piano represents all music.
II Didn't Raise My Boy to Be
Soldier" rattles the tr,isty old plano.
The children gather around and dance.
You would be amazed to SEQ them exc
cutting the modern dances Of the ball
room and the pleasure palaces. Where
do they learn them? Who IL their
teacher? And most Of these young
sters know the words Of the popular
songs as well as the tunes.
A German stood listening In the
door Of his sausage shop while the
plano played the tune Just mentioned.
He seemed to enjoy 1t immensely, for
he tapped the floor with his foot In
time with the music. On the opposite
side Of the street a Frenchman stopped
with razor In midair to listen while
patrons OF his barber shop stood In
the doorway to watch tho fun. An
Italian fruit pedler wheeled his cart
up to the curb and grinned At the
antics OF the children. New York's
spring song makes all nations akin.
And by the way there is an extra
added attraction to the street piano.

ONE WAY TO SMOKE FISH.

:. A RE you purifying them asked
n woman Of q man who stood
on Gravesend beach beside
two barrels placed on end from which
smoke was issuing. Another woman
asked him II he was bleaching hats
in the barrels. In fact numbers OF
men and women passing on the beach
expressed curiosity concerning them (;
an interest that was heightened when
they learned that what the man was
really doing was smoking fish.
Away back in old times there were
farmers In Kings county whose farms
extended In long strips from the
waters edge inland. They farmed
their lands back from the water In
the usual manner and came down to
tho bay to fish. There were other
farmers whose farms were altogether
inland who came down to the beach
in the fishing season and bought fish
such as shad and herring, which they
took home TO smoke.
Then as this section, now a par;
Of the Borough OF Brooklyn. came "a
te cut up with streets and avenues
to accommodate different and stead
lily increasing population, the farms
and the farmers and the farmers
smokehouses gradually disappeared, as
did one after another the fishermen
who had come later to occupy every
foot Of the land around the shores OF
Gravesend Bay. Under these changed
conditions the practice OF FISH smok-
ing as II was once commonly followed

practised again. though in somewhat
different fashion.
Twenty years or SO ago a man set
up barrel on the beach and smoked
some fish in Il He may have come
from some foreign country whence
he brought this method with him OF
he may have been a descendant OF one
Of the old time farmers or fishermen
But anyway ne lived in the neighbor-
hood and he fshed in the bay and
he smoked his catch In a barrel on
the beach.
This practice has been carried on
al irregular intervals in the years
since then by number of fishermen
and 1t was being followed now by the
fisherman whose two smoking barrels
had awakened so much curiosity. He
was an amateur who was spending his
vacation fishing in Gravesend Bay.
Ling, otherwise known as hake
have been plentiful In the hay this
season and this fisherman had caught
all he wanted. He picked OUT nfty
OF these and dressed them and pu,
them to soak in brine for twenty -four
hours. Then he went To the nearest
grocery store and bought two sugar
barrels which he took down tn this
beach and stood on end, open end
downward, supported on bricks.
