has uncovered many unique and |

+ torturous -time for.women of fash. jon, discovered Mr, Solomon in do- + ing his research, - Metal strips and heavy lacing * were used to’ pull tight the waist * and Jower the bosom. The lacings were damped so that they shrunk ‘as they dried. Consequently, the corser became tighter... and * tighter... and tighter. Women couldn't eat. They couldn't breath, ‘They fainted with alarming re- gularity.” But no longer is such the case, “Today's women would never tolerate this,” declares Solomon, “They demand comfort as well as beauty... It’s the modern com- panies, such as Exquisite Form, who have given women the ‘Just right’ garment which supports and slims — in comfort.”

Goog for Mr, Solomon. Good

for the undergarment industry. | Long may they both labor on, be- half of womenkind.

This coming Sunday canvassers who left inform- ational material last. Sunday, with all households. in the Kinnaird-Robson-Castlegar District willbe calling

‘again to pick up pledge cards for the KRG Com- munity Chest.

It is expected that these men, who are volun- teers arid who are perhaps not entirely. correctly called canvassers since they do no personal selling of the ideas behind the KRC Community Chest but just leave information and collect pledges, will be met ‘with a warm response and generous: contribu- tions froin individuals of all races, . creeds, paths of life, color arid vocations.

Since its inception in 1947 with the avowed in- tent of doing good and of doing away withithe num- erous tag days and the costly duplication of collect- ing methods and administration of numerous drives, the -KRC Community Chest has distributed over $83,000 to.scores of worthwhile local, regional, pro-

vincial and ‘national: organizations, During “the past -

few years the KRC has been handling bétween $15,- 000 and $18,000 annually.

donations !'to worthy or ions only b of . the generosity of some 400 people.

The KRC Community Chest is a voluhteer or--

ganization administered by 12 unpaid: directors who volunteer their time. They meet regularly once a month, and. often more frequently, to consider re- ‘quests for:grants'and ‘to dispense monies..‘Three of

the .directors represent Kinnaird, - three _vepresent-

the r ing six who sit'on the, board. represent Castlegar. .

. One of the strongest supporters through the years of the KRC has been Cominco through its dol- ‘ Jar-for-dollar program. By means of this program ‘the company meets every dollar donated to the KRC by one- of its employees with a dollar of its own.-In this way Cominco has been the. organization’s largest single benefactor.

- Local’ businesses have all been ‘strong supporters of the KRC and now Celgar has become a supporter’ of it. In fact. Cominco, Celgar, .the WKP&L Co.,. - School District No. 9 and’ the twin villages.of Castle-
