flee said he wished TO the doctor when was
least busy The girl said the best time would be just
fore the doctor would be leaving the office for the after
noon.
When Mr. Roberts arrived he reminded the girl he
was the she had talked to the telephone. The
girl without asking his business went in to the DOCTOR
and, in a moment Mr.. Roberts ushered into the
doctors private office. Now it was sink swim.
He told the doctor he insurance broker. In
stanty, the doctor bristled.
Now Mr.. Roberts began the plan he had laid: he
would take advantage of the doctors trait of opposing
people He asked few questions about the doctor, and
then began trying convince the physician that he should
not take any life insurance Mr Roberts, he said IF you
have to leave money at your DEATH there
why should carry any insurance As you know
it will only be added burden
The doctor looked at him somewhat curiously but
made reply. His most potent weapon gone: op-
position.
Finally he said: 81 haven't cent of insurance If
died today, my estate would not last my family three
years"
Mr. Roberts said 1.-The chances are you will live to
accumulate $4,000 $4,000. Then you will have
enough
Suppose don't?" asked the doctor
Mr.. Roberts said: IF in your opinion you do need in
surance, I'll be pleased to take of it for you.
Well, right then and there, Mr. Roberts wrote the
doctor policy for $4,000.
He had accomplished something where all the other
insurance had failed because he had capitalized
the doctors extreme love of opposing interviewer
had made the doctor the salesman had made the doctor
convice him that he needed the insurance.
If you have tough" customer why don't you try
the same method on him? Make him sell himself.

people who walking down the streets with their arms

If you still doubtful, go into of the stores
where gifts being Sold watch how of the most
tired clerks brighten up when they help you choose gift
and note how they seem to enjoy working in place
which filled with people looking for gifts which will
make others happy.
Santa Claus may not speed through the air drawn by
eight tiny reindeer but the spirit which he represents
the spirit of givingpervades the air around Christmas
time and gives annual lesson about there being
more pleasure in giving than in receiving.
The joyful feeling which abounds around Christmas

Aunt Fannie is going to be with that thingamajig
how Junior is going to shout with glee getting the
truck he has been begging for for months and how
Dad in spite of getting the bill at the end of the month"; is
going to look happier than usual when he opens that
package with a new warm bathrobe inside.
1t is always hard to put your finger feeling or
inner spirit It's difficult to find words which describe
adequately Perhaps that's why for hundreds of

character of Santa Claus Believing in Santa Claus really

To Increase
Rates on Car
Insurance
Tragic Deoth and
Accident Toll Is
Given as Reason

Tacoma's tragic death and
accident toll in traffic brought
its logical repercussion Sat.
urday in announcement of a
sharp increase in automobile
insurance rates effective here
and throughout the state on
Dec. Is.
William L. Healy. president of
the Pierce County Insurance
Agents association, said that Ta-
coma is being hit harder than
Seattle or Spokane In this par
ticular jump. which will generally
be Is per cent over present rates
throughout the state.
Too Many Accidents

fleets the adverse trend Of auto.
mobile acc dent frequency al

the experience reports by all com.
panies doing business in Washing.
ton filed with the state insurance
commissioner.
Increased population in Pierce
county has a good deal To do with
the increased accident experience
here, but there are other factors
that no doubt have had a bearing
Increased wages seem TO have
stimulated more drunk driving and
a general increase in carelessness.
The result is that beginning
Dec. Is. the Tacoma area rate on
privately owned cars will increase
substantially: commercial vehicles
will not be affected So far as
know, practically all companies
stock and non-stock, will impose
the increases.
Dollar Increase

who use their cars only for pleas

pleasure. must pay a basic s32
instead Of the present s26 These
rates apply TO the standard 5000
$4,000 liability for personal in
jury and $1,000 property damage.
The increase in the Seattle
area will be only a couple of dol
lars on each classification, but II
should be pointed out that the
Seattle area has been higher than
the Tacoma rate for some time.
Brunt of Load

Healy said the action was taken
at a recent meeting Of most of
the underwriting companies in the
state.

Comeback. IA to s
PHILADELPHIA :

PHILADELPHIA Navy
came back in the second halt
today with a powerful ground
offensive that moved down
the army 14-6 in the 42nd
meeting of the service football
teams before nearly 100000
fans in Municipal stadium.
outplayed in the first half by a
hard-running and harder tackling
army team, the Middies came back
from the intermission trailing 0
10 and promptly scored twice on
long downfieid drives led by
Barnacle Bill Busik, little Howie
Clark and Sherwood Werner.
The game Cadet team came
back in the fourth period with a
pass attack in a desperate effort
To score. but the Middies again
took command and moved down
TO the Army 20-yard line as the
game ended.
The Navy couldn't meet the
Army's rush in the second period.
After stopping a Cadet drive TO
their Is, the Middies fell back
under the off-tackle slants of
Hank Mazur and Ralph Hill.
Mazur reversed to Hill for SIS
yards to the Navy 81, then Mazur
sliced to the 10. Mazur ran the
ball to the vineyard line on a
sweep and Watkins plunged over
on fourth down.
A very different Navy team
took the field for the third period
and lost little time in taking the
lead. Busik ran five and eight
yards, passed to Bob Froude for
80 Busik and Werner alternated in
carrying the ball 80 yards farther
to the Army 1. where Busik was
injured but refused to leave the
game. Phil Hurt plunged for the
touchdown and Leonard's place
ment gave Navy the lead.
Navy marched back down the
field for 81 yards to score its Sec
ond touchdown. After Busik, Wer-
ner and Clark reached the Army

plays, the Middies were set back
five yards for having a man in
motion. Clark went back to pass
was trapped and reversed his field
TO outrun the Army secondary for
