  THE ANTS were spending a fine winter's day drying grain collected in the summertime. A Grasshopper, perishing with famine, passed by and earnestly begged for a little food. The Ants inquired of him, "Why did you not treasure up food during the summer?"
He replied, "I had not leisure enough. I passed the days in singing."
They then said in derision: "If you were foolish enough to sing all the summer, you must dance supperless to bed in the winter."
(Moral of the Story) It is thrifty to prepare today for the wants of tomorrow.
