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 whole day
long—till bedtime came—then a terrible fit of
homesickness cavae over her.
Aunty was at her wits' end—till she thought of
Long Distance. In just a few seconds Dorothy's
mother was talking to her little girl . , quietly,'
firmly, cheerily .:. then she told her to let Aunt'
tuck her away in bed.

And the telephone had saved Aunty from an awk-
ward predicament—at a cost of just 35 cents.
