Ant and Grasshopper
In a field one summer’s day a Grasshopper was hopping
about, chirping and singing to its heart’s content. An Ant passed by, bearing
along with great toil and ear of corn he was taking to the nest.
“ Why not come and chat with me,” said the Grasshopper,
“instead of toiling and moiling in that way?”
“I am helping to lay up food for the winter,” said the Ant, “and recommend you
to do the same.”
“Why bother about winter?” said the Grasshopper; “we have got plenty of food at present.” But
the Ant went on its way 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.
