It was really the first time Dorothy had ever been
away from home alone. She was happy as could be
at Aunty's, and romped and played the wholeday
long—till bedtime came—then a terrible fit of..
homesickness came over her. l F
Aunty was at her wits' end—till she thought of
LongDistance. In just a few seconds Dorothy's
mother was talking to her little girl ... quietly,1
firmly, cheerily ... then she told her to let ,Auntyl
tuck her away in bed.
Everything was all right after that. Dorothy felt'
that her mother really wasn't far away after all.'.
And the telephone had saved Aunty from an awk;
ward predicament -at a cost of just 35 cents.
