The Ant And The Grasshopper.

In a field one summers day a grasshopper was hopping about, chirping and
singing to its hearts content. An ant passed by, bearing along with great toil an 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. The Ant went on its way and continued its toil.
When the winter came the grasshopper 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.
