52 THE WORLD IN WHICH WE LIVE 



improvement in man through his efforts to cultivate 

 better fruits and grains is one of God's laws. When we 

 learn to know God's laws we learn to trust Him. 



Hand Work 



Let each child make a list of fruits and grains that we 

 use as food. The work should be done independently at 

 home and be brought to the class the next Sunday for 

 comparison. 



OPENING TALK 



Wliy do not all seeds dropped on the ground come up 

 the next spring? What happens to some that sleep 

 longer? What does this do for our earth? 



What do we call groups of plants that grow together? 

 Where do all plants grow best? How can plants and seeds 

 help themselves? 



Do you remember the story of the bees and the flowers 

 and how they helped each other? Here is another of the 

 same sort about the birds and the berries. It will show 

 us how by cultivation and improvement of plants our 

 earth has come to be a storehouse to which we turn for 

 our food.
