Mrs. Jones was waiting for an important telephone call, but she had no bread in the house, so she left the baby at home and said to his five-year-old brother, “ I am going to the shop, Jimmy, I shall be back in a few minutes. Pick up the phone if somebody calls”. While she was out, the phone rang , and Jimmy answered. “Hello”, said a man, “is your mother there?”

“No”, answered Jimmy. “Well , when she come back , tell her that Mr. Baker phoned”.

“What?’’ “ Mr. Baker. Write it down. B-A-K-E-R.” “ How do you make a B?”

“ How do I make…? Listen, little boy, is there anybody else with you? Any brother or sisters?”

“ My brother Billy”. “Good, I want to talk to him, please.” “ All right”, Jimmy took the phone to the baby’s bed and gave it to Billy. When mother came back , she asked, “ Did anyone phone?’

“ Yes, a man. But he wanted to talk to Billy”.
