It was spring. A well-dressed gentleman came into the park and sat down on a bench under a tree. He looked around at the trees, the flowers and the green grass. Then he saw a boy six or seven years old, who lay on the ground and watched him.

“What’s the matter, sonny?” asked the gentleman. “Why don’t you go and play?”

“I don’t want to play,” said the boy.

“Why not? Look at those boys over there! They are playing a ball. Why don’t you want to run and play?” asked the gentleman.

“Oh, I am waiting,” answered the boy.

“Waiting? Why?”

“Well, I want to see you when you stand up. A man painted that bench a quarter of an hour ago.”
