When | first came to Island Pond
the Island Pond House had outlived
its career as a hotel; the dining room
was the hall for entertainments, and
the rest of the building was used for
tenements, for the HERALD office, by
George N. Dale as law Office, and
Cheney's barber shop. Cheney would
stop in the midst of a haircut to go
fishing. Two big events in Island

Grand Lodge, |. o. o. F., think

tween Hon. Ossian Ray of Lancaster,

ISLAND POND 80 YEARS AGO
Former Resident Tells of the
People, Incidents and Social
Affairs of the Village in
the Days of Long Ago.

Billerica, Mass, Aug. II, 1916.
Editor HERALD:-A AS an old resident
of Island Pond and an employe of
the HERALD for four years with Mr..
Bishop, wish to extend you my
best wishes. The newspaper soil in
Essex county is very good but needs
cultivation like any other enterprise.
| would have enjoyed your Old
Home Week, for, while not native
of Brighton, my wife and two chill
dren are, and | lived there about
twenty years, locating there Janu-
ary 1st, 1882. My first introduction
to Island Pond was at a social in the
guild room of Christ church, when
the Rev. Mr.. Cowper announced a
song by Mrs. Stevens, meaning me,
"a bit embarrassing to stranger.
During my residence in Island Pond
there were many events OF interest,
some Of which come to mind at this
time. Essex Lodge was located over
the Clarke freight house; May "a,
1883 we went to Coaticook and in
stituted Victoria Lodge, |. 0. 0. F.,
on the night of May 80, two of our
Brothers, Alec Cabana and John
Fowler, passed into the great beyond
in railroad accident at Stratford
Hollow. Later on scores of railroad
men were involved in a suit against
the Grand Trunk railway company
by Henry Noyes, conductor of the
train in which our brothers met their
death.
One of the features of Island Pond
in those early days ws3 Bigel0w's
orchestra, which for years added
fame to the town; D. P. Mackenzie,
postmaster, still holds the fort, and
| have no doubt, could swing a bow
in good shape still, if you stood a
bass viol up to him. Many Island
Ponders must remember the 4th of
July minstrels of various years, and
Cooley" Flaherty's famous oration.
Then there was baseball! Frank
Harmon with his noted curves, Char
lie Thurston, "Cuey" Donahue,
Tommy Griffin, the Browns, and
other stars. Great battles with
Gorham in those days!
doubt if any New England town
ever had such an array of vocal tai
ent as Island Pond had twenty-five
to thirty years ago. Soprano, Mrs
Pottle, Mrs. Penfold, Mrs. Stevens,
Mrs. Cades; contraltos, Mrs. Morse.
Mrs. Andrews; tenors, Mr.. Gregory,
MI. Laurie, cNcH lllc, DdSooS' bep.
S. Robinson, Almon Smith, Josiah
Cobb, were old standbys, with scores
of others might think Of if | tried.
Mrs. Linehan, Mrs. Causcbrook,
Mrs. Rawson, Mrs. Reeve, were all
fine pianists, and these various nam
ed people, with some assistance,
rendered Esther" and "Pinafore,"

CAN FRUIT WITHOUT SUGAR
Canning Specialists Say Boiling
Water May Be Used Instead
of Sirup.

Fruit for use in pies or salads or
as stewed fruit can be put up or
canned without the use of any sugar
at all, according to the canning spec
ialists of the department. They,
therefore, advise those who. because
of the high price of sugar have been
thinking of reducing the amount of
fruit they put up, to can as much of
their surplus as possible by the use
of boiling water when sugar sirup is
beyond their means. Any fruit, they
say, may be successfully sterilized
and retained in the pack by simply
adding boiling water instead of the
hot sirup. The use of sugar, of
course, is desirable in the canning
of all kinds of fruits and makes a
better and ready sweetened product.
Moreover, most of the fruits when
canned in water alone do not retain
their natural flavor, texture, and
color as we'll as fruit put up in sirup.
Fruit canned without sugar to be
used for sauces or desserts must be
sweetened.
Canning Fruits Without Sirup
Can the product the same day it is
picked. Gull, stem, or seed, and
clean the fruit by placing it in a
strainer and pouring water over it
until it is clean. Pack the product
thoroughly in glass jars or tin cans
until they are full; use the handle of
a tablespoon, wooden ladle, or table
knife for packing purposes. Pour
over the fruit boiling water from q
kettle, place rubbers and caps in
position, partially seal if using glass
jars, seal completely if using tin
cans. Place the containers in ster-
ilizing vat, such as a wash boiler
with false bottom, or other recepta-
Gle improvised for the purpose. II
using hot.water bath outfit process
for 80 minutes; count time after the
water has reached the boiling point;
the water must cover the highest
| jar in container. After sterilizing
remove packs, seal glass jars, wrap
in paper to prevent bleaching, and
store in dry, cool place.
If you are canning in tin cans il
will improve the product to plunge
the cans quickly into cold water i'm
mediately after sterilization. When
using steam pressure Gamer in
stead of the hot water bath, steril.
ize for 10 minutes with 5 pounds OF
steam pressure. Never allow the
pressure to go over 10 pounds.
