Levny from hon -.e, the
casp,:bt quirkest way
is of course by a Long Dis-
tance call. 'rile young
people nowadays put up a
yery bratv, front of wish-
ing to appear independent •
and self-reliant, but their
hearts still thump faster
whert they hear Dad's or
Mother's voice over the
wire.
Even when they go
into business, per-
haps in distant cities,
their nature does not
change with their habita-
tion. The tie still holds.
The dear familiar voices
are just as potent.
IHave a regular time
to call up the absent
ones by Long Dist-
ance. The service was
never so rapid. The cost
of Interurban Service to
nearby -towns—within a
radius of say 25 miles—is -4
very low.
