CHAPTER IX
Down Town
"Don't you want to go down town for me, girls?" said Mrs. Dallas, one pleasant morning. "I can't send Bubbles very well."
"Oh, yes," said Dimple. "What are we to get?"
"Several things," replied her mother. "Go and get ready and I will tell you."
"May we take Celestine and Rubina?" asked Florence.
"I don't think I would, for you will have packages, and they will be in the way."
"Don't let's take them anyhow, Florence," said Dimple. "I was thinking this morning that their frocks are too thick for summer." So they ran off to get ready.
