Comes a certain day and your little one's no longer a baby. Maybe you begin to realize this the first time he begs to talk on the telephone. All at once it's more to him than just a mysterious something or other. Of course, he's still too young to use it by himself. But already he's learned it's full of people and excitement. And what wondrous things he can do with it. With Mommy's help be can talk with Grandma, who lives ever so far away ... or with Daddy at work. He can invite some of his little friends to a glorjous birthday party. And as he grows up, he'll find the telephone growing more and more nseful to him. In fact, there'll certainly be times, later on, when he wonders: What would I ever do without it?
