Thousands that look like .new and Operform as well as ever will have been remade, from old, castoffs, by the crippled, blind and paralyzed men of Goodwill In- .dustries. :Now celebrating its 50th anniver- sary, Goodwill has become a unique. and thriving organization says a December header's Digest- article. Goodwill is dedieatecl to rehabilitat- ing discarded men and material. Its method gis simple: it persuades the public to contribute castoff items of all kinds; disabled workers in Goodwill factories then repair them ,and sell them at low prices in Goodwill stores. The sales re- ceipts cceipts pity the workers' wages. Seven in Canada Today, 101 .Goodwill factories hum in the United States. 350 re- tail stores sell an annual volume of nearly $1.1,000,000.

Many have graduated to good jobs in (private industry; .others have been promoted to super- visory posts - in - Goodwill's u%'U plants. The movement is the brain child of a Boston Methodist minister. In 1902, he began collecting old clothes for his needy parishioners. As much of the clothing needed -repair, he organized sewing bees for the poor women of his parish. In exchange for their labor they wore given the repaired garments. Then a small store was opened and surplus clothes were sold to the public. Later he added furniture, toys, kitchen utensils, electric appliances. - Today Goodwill' deals in virtually every -tiling. A cage of white mice featured a recent transaction. But Goodwill's greatest job of restoration is that of men rather titan goods. In Goodwill's shops says the Digest article,- human dig- nitynt a the1self-respect se expect that conies of self-help have been restored- to thousands who once had thought these assets lost. .

Personal: to cure for what is noble, for what is beautiful, for what is gentle; to allow moments of in- sight to give wisdom at more mun- dane times. 'Social: to see in im- agination the society that is to be created, where individuals grow freely, and where hate and greed and envy die because there is noth- ing to nourish them. These things I believe. and the world, for all its horrors, has 'left me unshaken." -Bertrand Russell.
