GROUND-HOG DAY A ground-hog is a woodchuck; It is something like a rat; They hibernate in the fall With their sides a-looking fat. They stay all winter in their den That is always in the ground And no track upon the surface Until spring time can be found. On the second there's a legend In the month of F-e-b. That they come up to the surface Just to see what they can see. And according to tradition If the sun shines ground-hog day They return to winter quarters And six weeks more they will stay. I can see him now a looking As he blinks his sleepy eyes When he crawled out in the open And beheld the cloudless skies. This year he could see his shadow As he scampered in the' sun While the sunshine all around us Gave delight to everyone. To those who are superstitious If these signs prove anything , As the Ground-hog saw his shadow We'll not have an early spring. O. O. SMITH.
