Violet sitting in the shade, playing with their dolls.
"Oh, I know what we can do!" exclaimed Russ, who was carrying the boat.
"What?" asked his brother.
"We can take the dolls--those Rose and Vi have--and give 'em a ride on the
boat."
"Give Rose and Vi a ride on the boat?" asked Laddie, who had not been
listening very closely. "It isn't big enough."
"'Course 'tisn't!" agreed Russ. "I don't mean _that_. I mean give the
_dolls_ a ride."
"Oh, yes, we can do that!" cried Laddie. "It'll be fun! Will you let us?"
he called to the two little girls.
"Let you what?" asked Rose.
"Let us give your dolls a ride on the boat?"
Russ had taken a board, whittled one end sharp, like the prow, or bow, of
a boat, and had rounded the other end for the stern. In the middle he had
bored a hole and stuck in this a stick for a mast. On the mast he had
tied a bit of cloth for a sail. And when the boat was put in the shallow

"Well, maybe _that's_ all right," Rose agreed, and then she and Violet let
Russ and Laddie take the dolls, which they tied on the sailboat. Then
along in the little sheltered cove of the lake the boat sailed, giving the
dolls a ride.
But, suddenly, there came a strong puff of wind, and the boat tipped to
one side. Laddie could not have tied the string on Vi's doll very strong,
for she slipped off into the water.
"Oh, your doll will be drowned!" cried Rose.
"No, she can't drown! She's rubber," answered Vi. "I'll just play she had
