Community Chest
(Con't. from page 1, col. 3)

for the highest participation
per employee. Other leaders in
contributions to the Chest have
been our neighbors at Renfrew
and the Judson Mill in Green-
ville.

By contributing to the Com-
munity Chest, persons in the
Greater Greenville area are
able to give to 14 or more
charitable organizations all at
one time, instead of having
separate drives for each of
these organizations. The only
exception that has been made
is the American Red Cross,
which annually has its own
drive. Slater employees have
always donated to this worthy
cause also in a very generous
manner.

Allen Suttle, assisted by J.
A. Brady, directed to the drive
here at Slater this year.
