at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - "The Motor Maids are off again,"
announced the West Haven Courier one morning, as if every citizen
in the gray old town on the coast was not already well aware of it.
The four famous travelers and their chaperone, Miss Helen Campbell,
were always off somewhere in the red motor car. If they were not
making a voyage to England with the "Comet" stored in the hold of
the ship for immediate use on arrival, or taking perilous journeys
across the American continent in the faithful car, they were making
excursions to Shell Island or Seven League Island, or down the
coast to the Sailors' Inn. "Where is it to be this time,
Nancy-Bell?" Captain Brown had asked his daughter when she had
broken the news to him that she must give up the spring term at
High School for something far more educational than mere books.
Perhaps the sea captain had intended to be stern when he asked that
question; but Nancy had her own peculiar methods of dispelling
sternness. A beaming anticipatory smile irradiated her face and
scattered parental disapproval even as the warm rays of the sun
scatter the morning mists.

"A series of clean, wholesome books of adventure which will appeal
to the girl who loves outdoor life. These charming books fill a
long-felt want -- they are healthy books for healthy girls."
Billie Campbell was just the type of a straight forward, athletic
girl to be successful as a practical Motor Maid. She took her car,
as she did her class-mates, to her heart, and many a grand good
time did they have all together. The road over which she ran her
red machine had many an unexpected turning, -now it led her into
peculiar danger; now into contact with strange travelers; and again
into experiences by fire and water. But best of all, "The Comet"
never failed it's brave girl. "A series of clean, wholesome books
of adventure which will appeal to the girl who loves outdoor life.
These charming books fill a long-felt want -- they are healthy
books for healthy girls."
