It went big with him, I noticed. But there in the car I decides that the only way to keep in touch with the family check book is to make a quick bid for 'Chita. So I cut loose with the best Romeo lines I had in stock. Twice 'Chita nearly ditched us, but finally she pulls up alongside the road and gives her whole attention to what I had to say. Oh, they know how to take it, those sonoritas.
Weirdly the past became confounded with the present; impressions of sight and of sound interlinked in fastastic affinity, the face of Chita Viosca, the murmur of the rising storm.
"Well, what can you do with a Scotchman who's mad clear to the marrow? Especially a rough actor like McNutt. I'd already done a mile from the village when along comes 'Chita in her roadster. You know, old man Alvarado's only daughter. Some senorita, 'Chita is. You should have seen those black eyes of her's flash when she heard how abrupt I'd been turned loose.
Fiddlers swarmed away as Chita advanced over the moist soil, each uplifting its single huge claw as it sidled off; then frogs began to leap before her as she reached the thicker grass; and long-legged brown insects sprang showering to right and left as she parted the tufts of the thickening verdure.
Amby and 'Chita splurged on a cafe parfait and a grape juice rickey. Other dissipated couples at nearby tables were indulgin' in canapes of caviar and frosted sarsaparillas. But shortly after midnight the giddy revellers begun to thin out and the girl waiters got yawny. "How about a round of strawb'ry ice cream sodas; eh, Amby?" I suggests.

The old geographers erroneously considered this insulated group of mountains covered with eternal snow, as the extremity of the high Cordilleras of Chita and Pamplona.
All commanders obeyed these orders more or less except one, General Semianoff, whose headquarters were alongside that of the Japanese at Chita, from which he sent insolent refusals to recognise Koltchak's authority. Koltchak prepared to deal with this mutinous and buccaneering officer.
She only needed practice thereafter; and Carmen, who could also swim, finding the child's health improving marvellously under this new discipline, took good care that Chita should practice whenever the mornings were not too cold, or the water too rough.
They had gone back to their own country, and it was far from Cawnpore hundreds and hundreds of miles across a white sandy desert, grown with prickles and studded with rocks high up in the north of Rajputana. In the State of Chita and the town of Rubbulgurh there was no fighting, because there were no Sahibs.
"The world is like the sea: those who do not know how to swim in it are drowned; and the sea is like the world," he added.... "Chita must learn to swim!" And he found the time to teach her. Each morning, at sunrise, he took her into the water.
