It was a sunny day. John Smith was taking his two little boys to play golf. He walked up to the young man at the ticket counter and said, “How much is it to get in?”

The young man answered, “$3.00 for you and $ 3.00 for any kid who is older than six. We let them in free if they are six or younger. How old are they?” John said, “Tom is three and Jack is seven, so I think I should pay $ 6.00.”

The young man said, “You are too honest. You can save yourself three dollars if you tell me that the older one is six. I don't know the difference.” John said, “Yes, that may be true, but the kids know the difference.”
