He may have done this on an occasion or two, but we ? cannot remember it. He has been an old tyrant, and we are no longer afraid to tell him so. This year we have never even mentioned his Hogship's name until the second. The record of February held terrors for us no longer. So far %ve have made Florida look like a piker when it comes to warmth and sunshine. Birds have been sing ing, fish worms wiggling around us, snakes reported here and there, coal bins almost undisturbed, eatables cheaper and none of winter's discom fort. To us the backbone of winter is broken and we are as fresh as a daisy, and for one we have not had to plead at Ground Hog's throne, and he can proceed to do his worst for all we care.
