NATURE'S TEACHINGS Longfellow tells us to go to the woods and hills and learn lessons from nature. And Bryant, too, another of our poets, says "Go forth under the open sky and list To Nature's teachings." If you would do this, you might learn what a wonderful teacher nature is. Perhaps the birds would tell you how they build their nests and take care of their little ones. In the woods and fields you would find "On many a green branch swinging, Little birdiets singing." Soon you would learn to know each by its song, even when you could not see it. Then there are those busy little creatures, the insects and spiders ! They would show you how many- things they have to do and how they do them. Among them is "The honeybee that wanders all day long The field, the woodland, and the garden o'er, To gather in his fragrant winter store." 9
