Mr. Keuner was in the country with his small son. One morning, he came upon him crying in a corner of the garden.
\nHe inquired as to the cause of the unhappiness, was told it, and continued his way.<\/p>\n

But when on his return the boy was still crying, Mr. Keuner called him over and said to him :
\nWhat is the point of weeping when there is such a strong wind that it is impossible to hear anything at all ?<\/p>\n

<\/em>The boy hesitated, understood the logic of what had been said, and returned to his heap of sand without showing any further feelings.<\/p>\n
