Honesty is the best policy



Once there was a poor boy in a town. His father was dead. He had a mother and three younger sisters, living. They had no source of income. He tried much to get a job.
One day he was going home, when he saw a money bag lying on the road side. He picked it up and opened it. There was a huge amount of money, 50,000 rupees in it and an address card. He went to his mother and told her. His mother strictly ordered him to return the money bag to the owner. He went to the address and handed the bag to the owner (a mill owner).
The owner was thankful and asked him as to where he worked. The boy told him of his problem. The rich man was too impressed and gave him a job in his mill. Thus the boy got the reward of his honesty and passed many happy days.

Fruits and Vegetables


Carrots
Carrot is a root vegetable, usually orange in colour, though purple, red, white, and yellow varieties exist. It has a crisp texture when fresh. The most commonly eaten part of a carrot is a taproot, although the greens are edible as well. The flowering stem grows to about 1 metre (3 ft) tall. The wild ancestors of the carrot are likely to have come from Afghanistan. Carrots belong to the Umbelliferae family, named after the umbrella like flower clusters that plants in this family produce. As such, carrots are related to parsnips, fennel caraway, cumin and dill. There are over 100 different varieties that vary in size and color. Carrots can be as small as two inches or as long as three feet, ranging in diameter from one-half of an inch to over two inches. Carrots have Vitamin A, Vitamin K , vitamin C, Vitamin E , B1 ,B2 , B3 and B6. Carrots are extremely rich in potassium and contain magnesium, vitamin B6, folic acid, thiamine, and cholesterol reducing calcium pectate. Carrots also have small amounts of carbohydrates, essential oils, iron, copper, phosphorus and sulphur1. Packed with all of these vitamins and minerals, carrots are a very healthy food. Before ending, I will request you to eat carrots as they are important for eyes, besides, have you ever seen a rabbit with glasses?


Poetry - Mother to Son


Well, son, I'll tell you:

Life for me ain't been no crystal stair.

It's had tacks in it,

And splinters,And boards torn up,

And places with no carpet on the floor”Bare.But all the timeI'se been a-climbin' on,

And reachin' landin's,

And turnin' corners,

And sometimes goin' in the darkWhere there ain't been no light.

So,

boy,

don't you turn back.

Don't you set down on the steps.

'Cause you finds it's kinder hard.

Don't you fall now”For I'se still goin', honey,

I'se still climbin',

And life for me ain't been no crystal stair.
Langston Hughes
