    The Ant and the Grasshopper

    In a field one summer's day a


    Grasshopper was hopping and
    singing. An Ant passed by, bearing
    along with great toil an ear of corn.
    "Why not come and chat with me,"
    said the Grasshopper. "I am helping
    to lay up food for the winter," said
    the Ant. "Why bother about winter?" said the Grasshopper. But
    the Ant went on its way and continued its toil. When the winter
    came the Grasshopper had no food and found itself dying of
    hunger while it saw the ants distributing every day corn and grain
    from the stores they had collected in the summer. Then the
    Grasshopper knew: It is best to prepare for days of need.

    is there every morning,” we say. “Now the spider has to make
    another one.” “That spider has to learn to make a cobweb in
