UNCLE JOE
Gives Information Con-
corning GroundhogS

you know now II sometimes
just happens that the best men of
any town or community accident
ally meet on the corner or in some
reputable place of business and
while away a few feeting moments
discussing great questions, or in
the mutual exchange of opinions
on public or private affairs of
great consequence. On the &C.
casion We refer to. a motelv crowd
of Clear Creek ers had assembled at
Deis' stationery store. The war,
high price of living, Billy Sunday,
and other great questions of the
day had been discussed, when
Father McCabe referred to the
grounding theory as a humbug.
whats that? asked Uncle Joe.
as he opened fresh package of
Mail Pouch, 1.-The grounding is
a mighty cunning little creature
and, Notwithstanding the fact that
he sleeps most of the time while
Congress and the legislature are
in session, he's Patrick on the
works when the second day CT
February rolls round. If he sees
his lshadow, back he hugs to his
burrow, and we've got to shovel
snow and wear arctics for six
more weeks by Hague
Does the grounding govern the
weather, or does the weather gov
ern the grounding? asked Jack
Flannery as he gave Joe Bradley
the auto-tango wink.
Are you trying to feed me axel
grease or wasps nests?' asked
Uncle Joe, slightly indignant: II
want 10 make it perfectly plain to
all you doubling Dicks, that the
grounding or woodcchutk is one
of the best weather prognostica-
tors we have, and I can prove this
assertion by Webb Patton, Bob
Cappell and Fred There. Some
of the younger generation never
saw groundhogs to speak Of, but I
have. Sixty years ago, in MS
souri,, they were as plentiful as
butterflies in dog DAYS, or as tool
patrons of a mail order house. In
the spring and early summer it
often took two boys to drive the
old COW home at milking time
one boy to switch the groundhogs
out of the way, and the other to
drive the cow"
whats that got tt. do with the
grounding as a manufacturer of
weather." asked Den Harrington.
"Hold your auto, young fellow,
until have prefaced my argu-
ment with facts Of substantial ma
ture, as Prof. Haggott used to say
in debates. I'll get the logs on

ment, if can get this pesky cigar

that the grounding is wise and

in regard to the weather, I want
to say that more times than l have
thumbs aud toe nails I've seen
groundhogs holding prayer meet

their front paws pointing skyward

John Thomas heaved a sigh,
Tom johnson wiped a few sorrow
drops from his eyes, and everybody
