These are telephone booths, though they look more like using a Porta-Potty ...in a game of dominoes.  We seldom see a phone booth anymore, as most people have cell phones.  And the frequency of calls has increased, while in times past people may have wondered who they could possibly call.

There was a time when things were a bit different. Back at the beginning of time, it must have been devastating to think of the Cain-Abel tragedy. People didn't know what to say.  Until finally, "And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son and named him Seth, 'For God has appointed another seed for me instead of Abel, whom Cain killed.'  And as for Seth, to him also a son was born; and he named him Enosh. Then men began to call on the name of the LORD."

It seems we have to occupy all our time with our friendly gadgets of communication, yet are we steadily getting away from calling upon God??
