A challenge will move some people to action quicker than anything else. John E. Arnett of Prestonsburg, Ky., is the local representative of the Kansas City Life Insurance company which is located in Kansas City. He wanted to sell Mr. Ratcliff, In his home town, a policy, for Mr. Ratcliff was an influential citizen and the sale would make an impression on other people. So Mr. Arnett went to him but the other said that he already had a policy in one company and that he had been rejected 1 DiCaraecie by another company. There was no use in filling oat an application blank. That seemed to be the end of it One day Mr. Arnett went to the store and wrote up a policy for the man's partner. Just then Mr. Ratcliff came In and the partner said, "Tom, why don't you get in on this and have a policy with this man?" "No need. They won't write me," He answered. "I won't even consider the idea. Besides, he has already talked tp me about it" Then it was that Mr. Arnett did some quick thinking. lie decided to approach him on the ground of a challenge, so he said, "You know Mark Twain said that a difference of opinion is what makes horse racing. Well, you and I have a difference of opinion." "What is that opinion?" asked the other, mystified. "It exists as to whether the company will pass you or not" answered Mr. Arnett "111 bet you $5 that I can get you a policy at the standard rate." "Do you really want to bet?" asked the other, his interest immediately challenged. "I do." "Fill out the form." Mr. Arnett did not know 'whether or not his company would accept the application, but he reasoned, "You never can tell till you try." The medical examination was made, the papers forwarded. A month went by, then Mr. Arnett glided down the street a letter in his pocket Entering the store, he said, "Tom, you remember what you said about horse racing?" "Yes," said the other, wonderingly. "Well, there are two sides, but only one winner. Five dollars, please." ' The other man was delighted. Mr. Arnett had appealed to him by throwing down a challenge. 0 Johnson Elected To Head Farmers Union Local George E.

Clark, longtime long-time Orem residents- will celebrate cele-brate their twenty-second wedding wed-ding anniversary. The celebration celebrat-ion will be somewhat quieter than when they were married or at least that's what they are hoping. ' We dropped in on Mrs. Clark this week for a visit and she recalled the occasion of their wedding twenty-two years ago when their friends gave them a shivaree to long remVmber. Following their return from Salt Lake City where they were married, mar-ried, Mr. and Mrs. Clark were taken by their friends around town in Julian Hansen's screen, body Dodge truck. There was a great deal of laughing and shouting by the jubilant crowd and everyone but the uncomfortable uncom-fortable couple had an uproarious uproar-ious time. To make matters more complicated the Clarks were taken to the Provo police station and put 'under arrest' by the scowling police chief. Fortunately the chief couldn't keep a straight face for very long, so the newlyweds were released re-leased without having to spend the night behind bars. And who was having all the fun on that night 22 years ago? Mrs. Clark remembers that Carson Crandall, Dick Farley.' T ..J T-l.,1 T T3.,- ,4 Carl Farley were among those in the party.
