A certain old gentleman was very unhappy about modern education, and thought that young people nowadays were not being taught the importance of knowing the difference between right and wrong.
One day he was taking a walk in the park near his home when he saw some young boys standing around a small cat. The old gentleman went up to the boys and asked them what was happening. One of the boys said to him, "We're having a contest. We're telling lies, and the one who tells the biggest one gets to keep the cat."
The old gentleman thought that this was a good opportunity to teach the boys a useful lesson, so he said to them, "I've never told a lie in my life." All at once there was a great shout from all the boys, and they said, "You've won! You can take the cat!"
