Question

Jerry went to a barber’s shop and had his hair cut, but when he came out, he was not happy with the result. When his friend Jack saw him, he said in surprise, “What has happened to your hair, Jerry?”

Jerry said, “I tried a new barber’s shop today, because I wasn’t quite pleased with my old one, but this one seems even worse.”

Jack agreed, “Yes, I think you are right, Jerry. Now I’ll tell you what to do when you go into a barber’s shop next time: look at all the barbers’ hair, find out whose hair looks the worst, and then go straight to him.”

“Why shall I go to him? But that would be foolish!”

“Oh, no, it wouldn’t,” answered Jack. “Who cut that man’s hair? Just think it over. He couldn’t cut it himself, could he? Another of the barbers cut it. So you know he can’t be the worst barber.”
