- Baby is making his first telephone call, and Mr. Proudpa can hear him perfectly; and if Mr. P.’s eardrums begin to bend, he can place the receiver in his lap until the nurse puts the uproar to bed. When Baby comes home, he can put through his calls without a telephone. The only thing wrong with infants is that adults, when gazing down their open throats, sometimes forget that babies can also smile, like flashing, happy sunshine. So smile, Baby! O.K. then, don’t smile, Baby. Let’s ignore the character. Look at that kitchen, if you can without crying. Papa might persuade the fire department to come sluice it out with a hose, but it would be simpler to get Alajálov to paint it out with bold, facile strokes of a background brush.
