One day when Nasreddin was having a bath, he began to sing. The bathroom was small and had a stone floor, so his song was very beautiful, he thought.
‘Oh,’ he said, ‘I sing very well. I will sing to other people too, and perhaps I will become a famous singer, and everybody in the world will want to hear me.’
So after his bath Nasreddin went up on to the flat roof of the house and began to sing his song very loudly. But he did not like it very much when he sang it there.
A man was walking across the square in front of the house, and when he heard Nasreddin, he said, ‘What are you doing? You are making a terrible noise. Nobody wants to hear it.’
‘Oh, you think so, do you?’ answered Nasreddin. ‘Well, I really sing very beautifully. Come to my bathroom and you will hear me.’

The police in the big city were looking for a thief. At last they caught him. But while they were taking photographs of him--from the front, from the left, from the right, with a hat, without a hat--he suddenly attacked the policemen and ran off. They tried to catch him, but he got away.
Then a week later the telephone rang in the police-station, and somebody said, ‘You are looking for Bill Cross, aren’t you?’
‘Yes.’
‘Well, he left her for Waterbridge an hour ago.’
Waterbridge was a small town about 100miles from the city. The city police at once sent four different photographs of the thief to the police in Waterbridge.
Less than twelve hours later they got a telephone call from the police in Waterbridge. ‘We have caught three of the men’, they said happily, ‘and we will catch the fourth this evening, we think’.
