Wasn't it odd-my getting that cab driver again?" Lily asked, brightly, as she cuddled up against Staley in the wide seat. She looked mp at him. her big eyes wide and in rocent between their curled black lashes.
 Staley's mouth went up at one side in sarcastic smile. "I'li say it was odd" he remarked. Be honest with me for a change, Lily. How well do you know him? Tell me. l think I ought to know"
 "I don't know him at all," fibbed Lily, glibly. She salved her con- science by telling herself that she really didn't know Pat France well. even if she was infatuated with him.
 She wished from the bottom of her heart that she never had laid eyes on him. too,
 If I hadn't" she told herself. "thcre would be a chance of my caring for Staley. Thank fortune he's getting rid of the cab. I can't sec him now. even if I want to. It's all over.'
 But it was not over.

 She meant that for a half-hearted joke, but Pat France did not take it as a joke. The last glimpse she had of him he was holding the quarter in his palm. looking at it as if it were a fallen star or some such un- believable thing.
 And when the brown car was nothing but a blur in the distance, he hurled the coin violently down upon the muddy red bricks of the road and got into his cab. He drove back to town like the wind.

LEGISLATURE
PREPARES FOR
HOME STRETCH
Time Limit For Introducing
Bills Expires Monday
House Has Titanic Task

With nearly six full weeks of the
legislative period gone, the twentieth
general assembly next week will set
tie down for it's final dash to the
wire which will end March 4 or per-
haps in the wee small hours of
March 5.
The principal jam is expected to
come in the house where more than
800 bills have been introduced and
where the time limit for introducing
bills will not expire until two O'Clock
Monday, the house session prior to
that time being considered as q part
of Saturdays legislative day.
Since the requirement is that bills
originating in one house be sent to
the other house Is days before ad-
journment, the lower body faces a
titanic struggle to get all the house
bills out Of the way before beginning
consideration Of the mass of legis-
lation which has been sent over from
the senate. No effort has been made
to get the senate bills out of the way
this week and few Of them will get
serious consideration until after the
time for acting on house bills has ex-
pired.
Despite the oncoming jam, however,
Speaker Carr and other house lead
ers are hopeful that the lower body
will be able to get through with its
work without setting back the clock
on the final night as has been the
custom at recent sessions.
Because it has shorter roll calls
and usually disposes Of it's business
in much less time than the house, the
senate Is not expected to encounter
the difficulties which may beset the
house as the final hours of the ses-
sion are reached.

FOR REDUCTION

Brant of Emm0ns Would
Limit Senators to IS and
Representatives to 80

A bill that would reapportion leg
islative representation and reduce
membership in the state senate from
40 to 35 and in the house of repre-
sentatives from 113 to 80, was intro
duced in the state senate Friday by
Senator E. H. Brant, Emmons county.
Independents are expected to oppose
the measure, c0ntending that it would
give the Nonpartisan league control
of the legislature.
Handicapped by the absence Of 10
senators, the senate agreed to post
pone consideration of bills on which
debate is expected until Tuesday.
Three bills that were defeated
largely because of lack of a con-
stitutional majority will be reconsid-
cred Tuesday, their sponsors said.
Seven house appropriation bills
were passed without comment and
will be sent to the governor for his
signature. They appropriate $4,000
for care of insane patients who are
state wards, 100000 from insurance
taxes to aid state fire departments.
