CHAPTER XIV
Parasites

Matilda Truesdale gulped. But
she was a good soldier.
"This is Miss Joyce Daring, girls,
she said to the group at large. "She
is a great friend of Henry Deacon
and Carter Deland."
''What a marvellous combination, -
drawled one of the girls holding out
n languid hand. IT am Francis
Starret, these other parasites are
Helen Powers, Maybelle Hutchinson
and Florence Watkins"
"Deke and Carter! My word what
a strenuous life. How do you do it,
Miss Daring?" Florence Watkins, a
pretty blonde, was speaking.
"She probably practices purity at
night with Deke and wisdom at tea
with Carter" suggested Helen Pow
ers.
Eyes, no one could practice purity
at night with Carter" said Maybelle
There, I've shocked Matte. Poor
darling, did it hurt your ears to hear
the truth?" she made patronizing
gesture toward Miss Truesdale.
Joyce, who had felt first embar'
raised, and then thrilled at this chat
ter, wished for an instant these
girls could know Miss Truesdale's
title, Vinegar. For her face just
this moment had a distinctly sour
expression.
"I say, Fifty" cried Frances Star
rett, "Can Frankly have a cigarette,
or would the odor shock all the old
ladies who haven't gone to sleep
YETI"
Mrs. Fitz-Simons looked at the girl
indulgently. "Close the door first
dear. There's no use in hurting any
ones feelings and the matron here
is very strict"
Frances passed a chased silver
case around. Joy wished acutely
that she might take one and smoke
it with the nonchalant ease of the
other girls.
"No, thank you," she said when
her turn came.
"That's it," cried Florence trium-
phantly. IT knew we'd get on the

dence.

Jackson, head of the Southern Arizona
company, yesterday announced. Jack
son explained the development of the
LaSalle as follows:
The need developed from the realiza-
tion that two cars are essential to the
requirements of such great number
of American families and also from a
realization that there existed demand
for slightly smaller car of Cadillac
calibre for a slightly different pur-
pose.
Clearly what was needed was car
of genuine Cadillac calibre.
And that is precisely what the

LaSalle supplies.

LaSalle supplies.
This new creation is a truly fine
motor car, designed and produced in
the same atmosphere and environment
as have made the Cadillac great 1t
embodies the selfsame principles which
Cadillac has developed as essential fea-
lures of luxurious transportation
through 25 years of fine car building
The body designs refuse to conform
to the conventional and the common
place but instead dare to reach out for
new effects, dashing proportions,
pleasing personality. They are vivid
proofs that American motor car design
is a virile and vigorous art, fertile in
fresh motifs, able in achieving distinc
tive style, without violating those
established principles of sound design
upon which permanent charm must
ever be based.
Those in Douglas who have already
seen and driven this remarkable motor
car are loud in its praises and an
invitation is extended to all lovers of
fine cars to come in and see the
LaSalle.
The LaSalle is built in six different
body designs. The two passenger road
ster, the four passenger phaeton, the
two passenger coupe, the twopassen-
ger convertible coupe, the four passen-
ger victoria and the e-passenger
sedan.
