When... (with long time subscribers) ART BOGER Art Boger's family has lived in the McHenry area since about 1840 and the McHenry Plaindealer was in the family before he was born. The Edgebrook subdivision was once the Boger homestead and Art recalled some of his winter school days at the old Mill pond. The Mill pond, Boger said, was more of a lake than a pond and covered the ground where the Plaindealer, the First National bank, the Jewel and other nearby businesses now stand. Boger said that the Borden Dairy company out of Chicago owned the pond and used it to provide ice for the milk, as there was no refrigeration in those days. Men in seasonal employment, especially in the construction trades, used to work during the winter at the ice house for $.40 to $.60 per hour. On the north side of the Mill pond, a willow tree had blown over-part of it was still attached to the eight-foot stump. "Using the stump, we 'borrowed' some of Jake Freund's corn stalks to build a hut to use while ice skating during the noon hour when we wore in school," Boger said. By and by, one of Art's friends brought an old stove to the hut and the boys used it to keep warm while skating. "One afternoon, we went back to school and one of my friends was sharpening his pencil. He came back to his desk and passed me a note saying, 'Boger, your hut is on fire.' I asked the teacher if I could sharpen my pencil and I went to the sharpener-more to see if the hut was on fire than to sharpen my pencil. It was."
