The ground -hog had no diftfkulty- in
seeing his shadow on Sunday, if he

tween the hours of 11 and 12 the sun

to be one brought from the Old Land
by our forefathers, that if the weather
is fair oti Candlemas, Feb. 2nd, the
winter will be a severe one. Sunday
here was anything but a fair weather
day, and if there is anything in the
tradition our winter should not be
long or severe.

and refinement. A neglected school
house is a terrible demoralizer. Place
a child at a mutilated desk, put in his
hands torn and soiled books and we
find an almost irresistible temptation
to continue the destruction with knife
and pencil. Place the same child on
a neat, clean room with suitable and
beautiful furniture and we immediate-
ly remove the temptation for destruc-
tion.
