' THE HOLD UP FORECAST OF BAD WEATHER UPHELD Now His Rule Is Ended and Spring May Be Expected to Come Forward To-day the rule of the groundhog ends. Just six weeks ago Bre'r Groundhog turned in his long winter sleep, rubbed ! his eyes and glanced at his perpetual eiTTendar. Finding it to be February 2, lio ambled slowly out of his hole for the lirst look at the landscape since late last fall. Bre'r Groundhog didn't need to go very far that morning to know it was neither the time nor the place for an animal that loved the balmy days. Me I had not ventured ten feet away until | the S degrees above zero began to bite | his tender nose. Possibilities for the breakfast to his j liking seemed very, very slight. When he turned around to obtain a better view of the cheerless landscape, re flected on the surface of the snow was another groundhog strikingly similar to himself. That was the last drop of affliction for the morning. To be I dogged by a phantom brother on the day of his first annual walk was an insult and a disgrace. None of his ancestors would stand for it, neither would he. Turning tail he streaked for the friendly shelter of his hole as fast as his short legs would permit. Six Weeks of Bail Weather True to the power that the ancient superstition gave him, he has sent the six weeks of had weather. Variety Is the spice of life and Mr. Groundhog exhausted every means at his disposal to give a collection of bad weather. This morning when he awoke from 1 the six weeks' rest and walked to the front porch of his dugout he found a sunshiny spring day that would de light the heart of a more confirmed pessimist than the groundhog. The old superstition limits his power to the sending of six weeks of good or bad weather to follow the six weeks of bad, but every other sign points strongly for the early approach of spring. Besides it is jVist as easy to blame those six weeks on the weather man as on the groundhog, but it is much kinder to blame Bre'r Ground hog. Despite the fact that he was much maligned during; his winter va cation he slept on just as peacefully as ever. Tho old-timers who warm their hearts with the tales of ancient folk lore believe strongly in the forecast of the groundhog, To doubt his power in many sections of the state and country is considered blasphemous. Many an old-timer whose work is con fined to "raisin* garden sass" this morning took down the rake to pre pare the ground for the early onions. Seeking Information From Other Cities on Ash and Garbage Surveys Communications have been sent to the New York Bureau of Municipal Research and to a number of engi neers in the state for additional in formation on ash and garbage sur veys for the city.
