examination.’
    ‘Examination? For what?’
    ‘Venereal disease, Karen.’
    ‘Oh, I have nothing like that -‘
    ‘How do you know? Let Dr Holmes decide, if I call you in. Now get dressed, and come down to my office and give me that telephone number.’ She smiled at Karen. ‘You are one beautiful young lady, no question. I’d like to employ you. We’ll have to wait and see what tomorrow brings.’
    Dr Holmes was excited about his next examination at the Everleigh Club.
    He was going to see Avis, the small brunette he had first examined a week ago.
    What he had found instantly erotic about Avis was the size of her breasts, huge yet rosy and standing absolutely straight out. Her fleshy hips tapered into smooth shapely legs.
    Having seen what he had seen of Avis, and considering what he had heard from her, he knew that she must become his, in more ways than one.
    He also sensed that this was a girl who could be pressed. With enough aggression and a fair amount of charm from the doctor, she might be had.
    He knocked on her door. ‘It’s Dr Holmes.’
    Muffled, through the door, he heard her voice. ‘Come in, Doc, come on in.’
    He entered with his bag, hoping that she looked as seductive as she had a week ago.
    He saw at once that she looked even better.
    She was lying sprawled on her back on the bed, wearing only a loose Japanese kimono. Her knees were raised, and the kimono had fallen aside to reveal her wide thighs and a slither of her backside. She had been reading a novel with a lewd cover, and now she set it aside.
    ‘I have nothing venereal, Doc,’ she chirped, ‘but I don’t mind you poking around in there. You have good hands. I’ll confess something - I find it rather stimulating. Does that sound naughty?’
    ‘It sounds very female and I like it.’
    Avis possessed hair tightly bunned at the back, almond-shaped grey eyes, pert nose, a slash of red mouth. As Dr Holmes neared her, she sat up, and threw off her kimono. The milky-skinned, outsized breasts stared back at him.
    He set down his bag.
    ‘How’ve you been, Avis?’
    ‘Not too busy, Doc. The sisters have put a clamp on this place. I’ve had half as many customers as I had before. It’s boring, lying around, and I don’t like what it’s costing me. If something doesn’t change soon, I’m thinking of going elsewhere.’
    Dr Holmes sought and found his speculum. ‘You won’t find any house half so generous as this anywhere in the Levee.’
    ‘I know. I was thinking of doing what some of the other girls around have done. Taking a room in a hotel and inviting more action.’
    ‘That’s an idea,’ Dr Holmes said casually. ‘Want to take your position? Let’s get on with the examination.’
    Avis rolled off the bed, stood straight over the doctor and touched her breasts provocatively. She lay back on the edge of the bed, her feet barely touching the carpet.
    ‘Open your legs wider, dear,’ Dr Holmes directed her.
    When she did so, he bent down on his knees. With his free hand he touched her soft vaginal lips, rubbing them slightly.
    ‘Hey,’ she called, ‘let’s not have any more of that. You’re getting me going.’
    ‘I’m sorry. I’ll watch myself.’
    ‘Well, don’t overdo that. I don’t mind your being friendly.’
    With his fingers, he angled the speculum first downwards and then sideways to determine that she was healthy.
    He extended the examination beyond what was necessary because he was enjoying himself.
    Finally, he raised his head. ‘You’re fine, Avis.’
    She sat up on the bed, lifted her knees, and wrapped her
    arms around them. ‘I knew I was. You’re not leaving right away, are you?’
    ‘Not yet,’ said Dr Holmes, sitting down beside her and wiping the mirror of his speculum with a handkerchief he had dipped in alcohol.
    ‘You seem like maybe you have something on your mind.’
    ‘I do, Avis, if you feel like talking.’
    ‘Talking to you is fun, Doc. You’re a cute fellow.’
    ‘Thank you,
