WHO IS TO BELL THE CAT

   Once there was a rich man. The house of the man was infested with rats. The house became like the house of Hamelin. There were rats everywhere. They made a hole here and there. Again, they tore papers, clothes, etc. They always made noise and the members of the house could not sleep for it. So one day, the housemaster brought a cat to kill the rats. The cat began to kill the rats every day. The rats became very afraid and helpless. They could not move freely. So, they held a meeting They talked about the problems but could not find out any solution. They became disappointed. At last, a little rat stood up and said, “if we tie a bell on the neck of the rat, we would know its presence and save ourselves by running away. All the rats became very happy. They began to dance in pleasure. Suddenly, an old and wise rat said, “The idea is very good. But who will bell the cat?” Hearing it, all the rats became silent again.”
