Books with title The Motor Girls at Lookout Beach

Bess Robinson was so filled with enthusiasm that her sister Belle declared there was serious danger of “blowing-up,” unless there was some repression. Belle herself might be equally enthusiastic, but she had a way of restraining herself, while Bess just delighted in the “utmost” of everything. The two sisters were talking on the side porch of their handsome home in Chelton, a New England town, located on the Chelton river. It was a beautiful day, late in spring. “Well, have you sufficiently quieted down, Bess?” asked Belle, after a pause, which succeeded the more quiet girl’s attempt to curb her sister’s enthusiasm—a pause that was filled with just the hint of pique. “Quieted down? I should think any one would quiet down after such a call-down as you gave me, if you will allow the use of such slang in your presence, Miss Prim,” retorted Bess, with a little tilt to her stubby nose. “Oh, come now, Bess——”

Margaret Penrose was a house pseudonym used by the Stratemeyer Syndicate. Created by Edward Stratemeyer, the Stratemeyer Syndicate was the first book packager to have its books aimed at children, rather than adults. The Syndicate was wildly successful; at one time it was believed that the overwhelming majority of the books children read in the USA were Stratemeyer Syndicate books, based on a 1922 study of over 36,000 children country-wide.

Excerpt: ...but Ed and Walter were almost at his heels. "Has a party of automobile folks come in here since eight o'clock?" he asked of the man at the desk. "Yes," replied the clerk, turning over one page of the big book. The boys' hearts gave a sort of jerk-it must be their girls, of course. "Have they registered?" went on Jack. "Were there three cars, and a number of girls?" The man looked down the list of names. "Here they are," he said, indicating some fresh writing on the page. Jack scanned it eagerly. Then he looked at Ed and Walter. "Not them!" he almost gasped. "We have got to turn back!" "Make sure they have not come in, and are on some porch," said Ed. "They may not have had a chance to get into the office." But all inquiries failed to give any clue to the lost party, and, without waiting for any refreshments, the almost exhausted young men cranked up their muddy cars, and started off again over the very road they had just succeeded in safely covering. "We've got to have more spunk if we intend to find them," said Ed, for Jack seemed too overcome to speak. "Why, they may be snug by some farm-house fire, actually enjoying the situation." "I hope so," faltered Jack. "But next time I'll go along-not after them," and he threw in high gear, advanced the spark and then they fairly flew over the turnpike, back to the fork that must have hidden the secret of the turn in the road. CHAPTER XV-BOYS TO THE RESCUE Never had a ride seemed so treacherous. Sharp turns threatened to overturn the cars and the brakes, on slippery hills, were of little use. Fortunately the engines of both machines were in perfect running order and in spite of the bad conditions of the roads the Comet and the Get There pegged along, through mud and slush, sometimes sinking deep in the former, and ploughing madly through the latter. "I thought I saw a light," said Ed to Walter, after a period of hard driving. "Where?"...
