SIRUP PACKS I SUGGESTED FOR FREEZING PEACHES Sirup packs are bettor than dry sugar packs for fretting peaches. That's because peaches have little natural juice and darken readily when exposed to air. , Use a 50 to (0 percent sirup for peaches, advises Dr. Frances Van Duyne, foods research specialist, University of Illinois. To make a 50 percent sirup, dissolve one cup of sugar in fourcup water. For 60 percent si use the same amount at with one-half cup water. Of course, you can use a sweet sirup, says Dr. Van but 50 to 60 percent sugar centrations seem beat for serving peach flavor, shape and color. Stir or heat the sirup mixtdre to dissolve the sugar more quickly, but be sure it is cold when you add the peaches. If ybu use ascorbic acid--to help prevent browning--dissolve the tablets or crystals in cold sirup, use three 50-milligram tablets #or one cup of sugar sirup, or u se one-fourth teaspoon of cryft .Is to four cups of sirup. For the best product, p< el peaches without using a botli ig water dip. Halve or slice t le peaches directly into a cart >n that contains sirup. Press 1 »e fruit down and cover comple^ ly with sirup. Leave one-half-nt :h space at the top of pint Detainers for expansion during freezing; leave one inch jfor quart containers. Crumpled cellophane on top of the fruit will help to keep the fruit from floating. TWICE TOLD TALES Forty Years Ago A number of our young people had a very unusual experience on the waters of Pistakee Lake and Fox river last Wednesday night. The couples had attended dances at the Bay and Johnsburg and on their return four boat loads of merry-makers were lost in the dense fog. The Borden factory at this place is being treated to a new coat of paint. Frank Buhr is doing the work. Stephen H. Justen, ex-policeman of this village, is now touring the country with a thresh tog outfit. The framework --of the new blacksmith shop that is being built near the railroad tracks by Joseph May of Ringwood is up and it will not be long now before Mr. May will be ready for business in McHenry. The section men of the Chicago North Western railroad have been granted another increase in wages this month. They now receive $1.70 per day. That's a little more like it! M. M. Niesen, the hustling Centerville groceryman, is having his store enlarged and shaped up to better advantage. In spite of many reports to the contrary, the world famous lotus beds in Grass lake will again be in full bloom in a few days. The Hunter ltfc« is running boats to the beds daily. The Hudson Medicine company closed a week's engagement here last Saturday. The show was well patronized every night and the company succeeded in selling the usual amount Of medicine, soap and tooth powder. The company went to Ringwood from here. Forty Years Ago W. E. Whiting is improving his home south of town by installing a hot water heating plant and bath room, with hot and cold water throughout. Theo. Winkel has purchased the E. W. Howe house and property on Broad street on the north side of the public park *nd will take possession of same early next spring. Peter Wirfs has purchased the W. A. Fisher house 'on .Center street on the West side. The McHenry public " school will open the fall and winter term on Monday, Sept. 2. M. J. Walsh, the progressive and wide-awake West Side merchants, is now doing business in his handsome new store, located just east of E. F. Matthews' meat market. - Gus Anderson, familiarly known here to McHenry ajjd around the lakes, where he had made his home during the past several years, as "Shorty", was shot and killed by a companion at Pistakee Lake near Fox Lake last week Friday night. The shooting took place following a yiolent quarrel between the dead man and tils companion over tfie equitable division of a string of fish which the two ' men had caught. The audience at the Certtral opera house last Friday night was handed one great big, large, juicy lemon at the hands of the Kissing Princess company. The vaudeville part of the show, with the exception of one number, was a farce and the minstrel was a complete fizzle. Such rot as this will go in some places but not with McHenry people, who know and _ appreciate a good show when they see it. The bowling tournament at Emil Geier's alleys closed last evening. The winners of the contest were: First, Arthur Meyers; second, N. P. Justen; third, Glen Robison; fourth. Will Freund. 34* §1- JOHN'S, CHURCH - ^ CARNIVAL JOHNSBURG, ILL. Fri. Sat. and Sim.
