We comment today on Saturday
last as it was Candlemas Day,,. also
known throughout the land as
Ground .Hog Day; those who are at-
tracted in old time legend, kept close
watch to the weather and to the skies,
if the sun peeped out to cast a shad-
ow, then that meant and as well scar-
ed the ground hog in the cave for
another six weeks. Meantng wintry
weather for that period of time, and
with no shadow to scare him he would
stay in the open, meaning .springlike
weather; according to close u'bserva::
ion in the past of the land, there
were not many sunny spots visihle,
and one could well say that the
ground hog did not see his shadow.
and if we are believers in such we
can well believe that the hard spots
of the winter has passed away. How-
ever one should not unpack his self
of his winter garb yet. But that
you can make your decision.,
In
ecision.-
In the European countries and as
well in America Candlemas Day ie
known as a Christian festival; ft was
not always known as Candlemas Day
but rather the fortieth day after Ep-
iphany. The date being changed by
the people in the fourth century, af-
ter the established festival as of Feb.
2nd; people living in the early cen-
turies took that day to make pro-
phecies, perhaps the reason was
known as mid -winter and even today
the average citizen believes on that
date they are entering ion the hist
half of the winter, and as well to
.see how close .they could be of being
either right or wrong in their gueses.
However the custom of prophesteing
dates back to pegan times.
The Germans of the old land
strongly upholds that theory, that if
an hibernating animal arose from
his torpor on that date, and sudden-
ly peeped out of his cave on Candle
mas Day, and seen his shadow, he
would immediately return to ?tis
cave for .the next forty days and
that meant winter weather. This goes
