with few OOPS of honey.
One of the bees asked how he had
spent his time all the summer, and why
he had not laid up store of food like
themp
"Truly," said he, Il spent my time very
merrily in drinking, and dancing, and
singing, and never once thought about
the winter"
sour plan is very different" said the
bee. "We work hard in the summer to
lay by store of food against the season
when we foresee that we shall want it;
but those who do nothing but drink and
dance, and sing, in the summer must ex-
pect to starve in the winter"
