GATE HAS CHANCE TO
MAKE GOOD
It was thought by a good many
that my visit heje in October
was purely a money getting prop
osition, and I was told by two
of the best men in town that-
I would scon forget Gate now
that my job was over. This was
perfectly natural and I did not
blame them nor did I care for
I knew there would be a time
when these same two men would
come to me and say, " We were
mistaken. " I wish to state right
here that I never held a publicity
campaign but what I did it for
the good of all concerned. If I
could not see that it was for the
g, od of all I would not take the
job.
There is something in this
world for all and the greatest
thing for anyone is satisfaction.
Whenever we do a deed that is
satisfactory we have don e some
thing that never dies. If you rem
ember that I told you at some of
the meetings that I would work
for Gate until she was the best
town ii the " handle." Now a
chance has come to starr. things.
