The partnership discontinued the parties to avoid confusion and duplication some years later when, in the lush years of tht late 1920’s, other companies began giving similar affairs. When the de pression discouraged the giving of these parties, however, Gates & Lyd iard came back to the original pur pose of being of help to the county’s deserving children.

The other paddled away all night And not a croak «lid he utter. And with the coming of morning light He rode on an island of butter. The flies came thick to his island home And made him a breakfast snuppy. The milkmaid shrieked and upset the pall And froggy hopped away happy. The plainest moral Is in this rhyme Which we should at once apply: Success will come at a trying time. If we paddle and never say «lie! FOR ONE WHO IS TIRED Dear child, God does not say today. "B e strong.” He knows your strength is spent; He knows how long The road has been, how weary you have grown. For He who walked the earthly roads alone. Each bogging lowland, and each rugged hill. Can understand, and so He says, "Be still. And know that I am God.” The hour Is 1st«, And you must rest awhile, and you must wait Until life’s empty reservoirs fill up As slow rain fills an empty upturned cup. Hold up your cup, dear child, God to fill. He only asks today that you be still. — Orace Noll Crowell.
