After a while Margy said:
"I'm going to take a walk with my doll. She hasn't had a walk to-day."
"Where are you going?" asked Rose.
"Oh, just a little way," Margy answered. "Want to come?"
"No, my doll doesn't feel very well, and I've sent for the doctor. I've got to stay in till he comes," replied Rose.
Of course this was only make-believe, but the children often played that.
She made a bed for her doll in the soft grass, and covered her with some leaves picked near by.
"I guess I'll play my doll is sick, too," said Margy, "'stead of taking her for a walk."
"No, don't play your doll's sick," objected Rose to Margy. "She must be a trained nurse for my doll."
"Oh, yes. That'll be more fun. I wish the doctor would hurry up and come."
