CAPE COD KITCHEN
The scene pictured above Is of
a very interesting and uniquely
restored Cape Cod kitchen in the
home of Charles L. Ayllng of Con-
terville. The hand-hewn beams,
pine paneled walls , spotted floor
and huge fireplace are n replica of
the past. Mr. Ayling Inherited the
contents from his grandparents.
Ills present home Is of Georgian
Colonial design , but a Cape Cod
kitchen was included in the base-
ment to add to the traditional at-
mosphere.
The entrance to this interesting
room Is entirely authentic. The en-
tire side of nn old house from West
Barnstable was obtained and used
as the approach. This is of the
original weathered , grey shingles ,
old paneled door and windows with
small panes of glass (sh small
panes over nine).
On entering the room an atmos-
phere Of "Welcome" greets the
visitor . Opposite the door Is a
large fireplace equipped with iron
utensils which belonged to the
daily life of that period. The value
of (his Iron ware lies somewhat
In the manner in which the ends
have been turned. One of the un-
usual pieces Is a revolving trivet
with long handle to keep the steak
nnd chops turning. A very old tea
keltic is hung from n large iron
crane. This Is of rare construction,
with tip handle HO the tea kettle
could be tipped forward and back.
Another item of interest is a long
handled shovel usually given a
bride to use In taking out the bread
and pies from the bake oven , or
so called "Dutch oven." There are
also iron pots and puns and all
sort .-, or trivets , cooking ulenslls ,
etc.
In many of these kitchens tin
many as Blxty.flve pies have con-
stituted a day 's baking. At the left
of the fireplace is a delightful old
pine cupboard filled with" earthen-
ware , molasses jugH, Bennington
pie plates and milk bowls. Rare to-
day are the tin quart milk pail and
old schoolmaster's bell , which no
doubt was used to coll the family
to a well rooked meal.
A very outstanding feature In
the room Is a pin cushion safe
used on Mr. Aylin g 's grandfather 's
ship for years. This Is of oak ,
bound with Iron strips , about,three
feet square , and Is covered with
round spikes which give the effect
of large roundheaded pins In a
cushion.
Hanging on the wall are wrought
Iron eandleholders , a plcturp of
the Barnstable Court House ill
olden days, daguerrotypes of the
family in old black frames and
many other things of interest.
On the opposite wall is a full-
rigged ship model in a shadow box
frame . The windows hnve qunint
old fashioned chintz curtains of
dark brown background nnd pin
dots of yellow. On the mantel over
the fireplace is an Empire clock
with painted glass scene. Tucked
away In the tin match box nro sev-
eral packnge s of wooden card sul-
phur matches. These were still In
use at the beginning of the present
century, but are seldom seen today.
These matches were made from a
two-inch square of thin wood ,
slotted by saws to within about
one-half inch of the base. The
slotted end was dipped ill sulphur
and then a red phosphorus. They
came packed six cards to the pack-
age , wrapped In tissue paper. When
striking a match , tho resulting sul-
phur fumes were very unpleasant.
Prior to the war , Thanksgiving
dinners were served In this charm-
ing room, which makes a perfect
setting for such all ossaelon.
Mr Ayling Is also the fortunate
owner of an exquisite collection of
Sandwich glusH handed down from
his grandparents, This was bought
at Sandwich in the old days. Tills
has been of keen Interest to Mr.
Ayling and he hns made a thor-
ough study of Sandwich glass, until
today he is an authorit y on this
subject.
A room like this IH a living exam-
ple of the early New Englanders '
soundness, simplicity and sin-
cerity. It has been admired by one
Of the curators Of the Metropolitan
Museum.
