'Why don't you try to get q
job that pays more money!"
was his next question.
1 told him that jobs we're
mighty scarce nowadays and that
was forced to earn money and
that taxicab driving was the only
occupation most Of the men idle
from their regular vacations could
take.
The man was we'll dressed and
from his general appearance and
talk sized him up as being finan-
cially on top. I thought from his
solicitude about my financial
conditions that fat tip would
come but when he alighted at the
station he gave me 90 cents.
Returns to Garage
Then came my breakdown and
I was forced to go back to the
garage.
Cruising around in the after
noon I picked up three women at
Thirteenth and Clifton Streets. I
took them to the National Thea
ter. One with a blue hat said:
81 don't like to ride in cabs,
because the drivers are SO reck-
less. But they are cheaper when
several of us are riding than the
street cars"
I took that as a gentle hint to
drive slow and carefully. I did.
Driver we want to get to the
theater in time for the matinee.
Why are you driving so SlOw?"
This from the second, who was
dressed to suit a girl at least Is
years younger than she was.
There was between the devil
and the deep blue sea. One wanted
me to go slow, the other fast. I
pleased them both by keeping
within the speed laws. The third
woman said nothing during the
trip.
The second, however, did not
disappoint; she was goSSipy and
I soon learned her husband was
named Tom and that she was
glad they had no children. She
said:
tom thinks / dress too
girliSh."
The blue-hatted one said:
Maybe he thinks some other
man will run off with yOu?"
Has Him Trained
Fat chance they would have.
Tom has a job and a good one
in the Pension Bureau, and
while we fight like cats and
dogs, as you know, 1 would not

man evidently had not enjoyed
his breakfast.
I was almost past him when he
waved to me, and, due to the
heavy traffic behind my cab, I
could not back to where they
were standing, so he and the
woman had to walk about is feet
to get into the cab. Both were
disgruntled. The man especially.
He said, using a very mean tone:
"If you cannot back to get
passengers instead of making
them walk to you, you should
not be a driver. Get q hustle
on you and drive to the Avenue
and Fifteenth Street."
I got started, happy that 1 was
lucky in getting a job so quickly.
AS neared Pennsylvania Avenue
and Fifteenth Street, l asked the
man politely which corner he
wanted. That question brought
out his ire entirely. He said:
'Why are taxi men so dumb?
/ think the authorities should
pass law to keep dumb men
from driving cabs. What cor
ner do you think 1 mean? Why
ask me? 1 want the nearest
corner. You are the dumbeSt
driver 1 ever struck"
Women Got Out
BY that time I had neared the
corner and I stopped the car. He
told the woman in a loud tone
to get out. She was seated di-
rectly behind the drivers seat
and had to cross over the man
to alight. He did not bulge to
assist her. Nor did he say good
bye to her when she left. He
told me to drive him to Four
teenth anc H Streets.
He paid me 20 cents for the
trip. I knew he should have
given ME 10 cents for the stop
which permitted the woman to
alight, but because he was so
mean I did not ask him for it.
] was glad to get rid of him.
My next fare was a man up in
years. He got into my cab at
the Washington, Baltimore and
Annapolis Railway Station and
took him to Union Station. He
asked:
"HOw is buSineSS?"
Rotten"
81 understand you cab
drivers are barely existing on
the money you get"
