                    MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS


   Comparison of fixed assets from December 31, 1996 shows an
increase which is attributable to the acquiring and equipping of
DeKalb Lodge which opened on March 1, 1997.  The assumption of
the DeKalb debt at Columbus Bank and Trust was also the reason
for the increase in the mortgage debt.  The increase in other
liabilities compared to December 31 was the result of expenses
incurred in the opening of DeKalb Lodge and as result of the
merger with Southern Acceptance.

   Revenue for the quarter ending September 30, was $1,215,235
compared to $1,079,720 for the same quarter in 1996.  On a store
to store basis, excluding DeKalb Lodge which opened in the first
quarter of 1997, the revenue for the quarter was $1,004,423
compared to $1,079,720 in the same quarter in 1996.  Revenue for
the 9 months ending September 30 was $3,215,538 compared to
$3,082,297 for the same period in 1996.  Excluding DeKalb, the
revenue was $2,731,038 compared to $3,082,297 for the same period
in 1996.  Revenue was down most dramatically in the first
quarter, and has stabilized and improved since such time. 
Decrease in revenue can be attributed to a wet winter, a decrease
in construction workers and an end to the Olympics.  Overbuilding
from  the Olympics and the absorption caused by increased
competition is also a factor.

   General and Administrative Expenses for the quarter ending
September 30 were $1,010,538 compared to $986,182 for the same
quarter in 1996.  The greatest increase in expenses was an
increase in accounting, advertising, maintenance supplies,
management fees, repairs and maintenance, subcontractors, and
utilities.  These increases were connected with the merger with
Southern Acceptance which was completed December 31, 1996, the
addition of DeKalb Lodge or normal repair and maintenance of the
existing lodges.

   Earnings before income tax expense for the quarter was
$220,019 compared to $197,657 for the same quarter in 1996.  This
increase can be attributed to the addition of DeKalb Lodge.  Net
earnings for the quarter was $137,702 compared to $197,657 for
the same quarter in 1996.  The decrease can be attributed to
income tax expense.  In 1996, the company was an S corporation
and did not incur a tax expense.

An additional lodge is under construction in Columbus, Georgia
financed by Columbus Bank and Trust.  Opening is anticipated
during the first quarter of 1998.<PAGE>

  NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

               Nine months ended September 30, 1997


NOTE A - BASIS OF PREPARATION

 The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial
 statements of Efficiency Lodge, Inc. (The "Company") have been
 prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
 principles for interim financial statements and with the rules
 and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
 footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
 for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of
 management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
 accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
 been included.

 The results of operations for the quarter ended September 30,
 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
 expected for the full year.  The interim consolidated financial
 statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's
 1997 consolidated financial statements and related notes.

NOTE B - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

 The FASB has issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
 No. 128, EARNINGS PER SHARE,  which is effective for financial
 statements issued after December 15, 1997.  Early adoption of
 the new standard  is not permitted.  The new standard eliminates
 primarily and fully diluted earnings per share and requires
 presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share together
 with disclosures of how the per share amounts were computed.
 The adoption of this new standard is not expected to have a
 material impact on the disclosure  of earnings per share  in the
 financial statements.

NOTE C - PRO FORMA RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 On December 31, 1996, the Company merged with Southern
 Acceptance Corporation, Inc. (SAC).   The merger was recorded
 under the purchase method of accounting with ELI being
 considered the acquiring  company.  SAC's results of operations
 have been included in the Company's statement of operations
 from the date of acquisition.  Accordingly, the three
 accompanying historical results of operations for the nine
 months ended September 30, 1996 and six months ended September 30,
 1996 do not include SAC's results of operations.

 The following pro forma results of operations for the nine
 months ended September 30, 1996 are unaudited and were prepared
 under the assumption that the merger with SAC occurred on
 January 1, 1996 and that the Company was a taxable entity.
 These pro forma amounts are not necessarily indicative of what
 the actual results of operations might have been if merger had
 occurred at the beginning of fiscal year 1996.

   Net earnings                         $   342,960
   Earnings per share                   $    381.07
