Orosadtou Day
The weather-wise people profess to
believe in tht; groundhog and his
prophesying power. They avow with
great solemnity that this little animal
enierges from the nest at the bottom
of his winter quarters on the morning
of February 2nd (this morning) and
takes a took about him. If on that
auspicious morning he catches a
glimpse of a black shadow behind him
be makes all haste to get back to his
warm nest of leaves for another nap
of six weeks. If, however, the skies
are cloudy and he fails to see even the
faintest show of a shadow he makes
preparations for his spring work,
shakes off his lethargy and begins to
live once more. There are a great
many people who believe in theground-
hog and groundhog day and they watch
the day with great anxiety especially
when coal is dear, and wood scarce so
that they will get some Idea of just
about how much more money they
must spend before they begin to buy
ice instead of fuel. All believers in
the groundhog agree as to his manner
of foretelling the weather but they
do not all agree as to the true time
when be appears. Some cling to the
idea that the little aninial makes his
survey on Feb. 2, while others say he
comes out to take a weather squint on
Feb. 14th, or on St. Valentines Day.
