Frise's store. On rows of machines 7 or 8 girls work on quality nightwear which later graces the shelves of Canada's best stores. The story behind the company now run by Mr. Frank T. Tougas is an interesting one. The seeds were sewn in 1920 when J.H. Frise and I.B. Solomon went as partners into a new venture called the Brighton Whitewear. They manufactured pyjamas, nightshirts and nightgowns, which sold from Kingston to Oshawa and points north. Mr. Solomon dropped out the following year and Mr. Frise carried on alone, only to be burned out by the disastrous fire in the early nineteen twenties. Actually the fire was put out in the nightwear building but since it was located on the top floor at that time all goods were ruined and machines were blackened and scorched. The roof was half gone. Mr. Frise had to employ 14 men to lay new floors and clean the machines. Burned goods were sold at a great loss. By 1923 the Whitewear Company was back on its feet and Sam Ross and W.W. Porte came in as partners with Mr. Frise. The goods produced sold very well and in the mid twenties about 15 girls were employed as compared with the few Mr. Frise had when he was alone and had to do cutting far into the night to have work for the girls the next day. In 1926 the name Whitewear was changed to Brighton Nightwear Company Limited, since it was deemed the earlier name was misleading. Mr. Frank Tougas came from Peterborough to be a cutter in March of 1927. The Company continued the same under the new name till 1930, when Sam Ross sold out to Paul Houghton, son-in-law to Mr. Frise, who had been in the oil fields Of Oklahoma and Arkansas. He came to Brighton in 1934 and became active in company affairs. It was in 1936 that several local men joined with Messrs. Frise, Porte, and Houghton in the Nightwear Company. The new men were Y.C. Chapman, A.S. Miller, George Raymes, R.J. Taylor and Russell Philp. The following year the whole company folded up and production ceased. The owners sold thousands of dollars worth of machinery at a great loss to a buyer who trucked it away to Toronto, leaving little evidence of the once flourishing business. Frank Tougas, cutter with the old company, moved in new machinery in 1938 and started the Brighton Manufacturing Company on the second floor of the building. It is this company, still under, Mr. Tougas's ownership, which is flourishing today and whose goods are in such demand far and wide. The garments are considered by those in the know to be the best in Canada, which accounts for their popularity in the leading stores of the country. Mr. Frise, the originator of the Whitewear Company, recalls that in early days the motto was "Nightwear as mother made" at that time a Miss Morden was floor lady. Now Miss Mabel Can holds that position and has done so since the days of the old nightwear company. (47 Main Street)" from page 328 & 329, History of Brighton Businesses by Susan Brose.4
He lived in 1932 at Prince Edward St., Brighton, Northumberland Co., Ontario; Resident 15 years at Prince Edward St., Brighton per Death Reg'n. - 1947.3 He "June - More than a year ago, talk about a park on Main Street between Graham's Hardware Store and the Hydro office, the outlook for any such wish coming true was not very bright. But time and people's changing opinions can work wonders, and now we learn that beginning the first of August a smart little park will be made there in which seats will be placed to accommodate those who wish to rest.
Belonging as it does to more than one person, the land could scarcely be annexed by the town council, and rented as it is, to the advertising agency one could not expect the owners to forego the rent they receive from it. But, the advertising company wanted a little park threw as a foreground for their advertisements. And to that end they have secured permission from the owners and, thru Reeve Tougas, from the town, to build a little park and place their advertising boards at the back and sides thereof." from page 302 & 303, History of Brighton Businesses, by Susan Brose.

The goods produced sold very well and in the mid twenties about 15 girls were employed as compared with the few Mr. Frise had when he was alone and had to do cutting far into the night to have work for the girls the next day. In 1926 the name Whitewear was changed to Brighton Nightwear Company Limited, since it was deemed the earlier name was misleading. Mr. Frank Tougas came from Peterborough to be a cutter in March of 1927. The Company continued the same under the new name till 1930, when Sam Ross sold out to Paul Houghton, son-in-law to Mr. Frise, who had been in the oil fields Of Oklahoma and Arkansas. He came to Brighton in 1934 and became active in company affairs. It was in 1936 that several local men joined with Messrs. Frise, Porte, and Houghton in the Nightwear Company. The new men were Y.C. Chapman, A.S. Miller, George Raymes, R.J. Taylor and Russell Philp. The following year the whole company folded up and production ceased. The owners sold thousands of dollars worth of machinery at a great loss to a buyer who trucked it away to Toronto, leaving little evidence of the once flourishing business. Frank Tougas, cutter with the old company, moved in new machinery in 1938 and started the Brighton Manufacturing Company on the second floor of the building. It is this company, still under, Mr. Tougas's ownership, which is flourishing today and whose goods are in such demand far and wide. The garments are considered by those in the know to be the best in Canada, which accounts for their popularity in the leading stores of the country. Mr. Frise, the originator of the Whitewear Company, recalls that in early days the motto was "Nightwear as mother made" at that time a Miss Morden was floor lady. Now Miss Mabel Can holds that position and has done so since the days of the old nightwear company. (47 Main Street)" from page 328 & 329, History of Brighton Businesses by Susan Brose.4
He lived in 1932 at Prince Edward St., Brighton, Northumberland Co., Ontario; Resident 15 years at Prince Edward St., Brighton per Death Reg'n. - 1947.3 He "June - More than a year ago, talk about a park on Main Street between Graham's Hardware Store and the Hydro office, the outlook for any such wish coming true was not very bright. But time and people's changing opinions can work wonders, and now we learn that beginning the first of August a smart little park will be made there in which seats will be placed to accommodate those who wish to rest.
Belonging as it does to more than one person, the land could scarcely be annexed by the town council, and rented as it is, to the advertising agency one could not expect the owners to forego the rent they receive from it. But, the advertising company wanted a little park threw as a foreground for their advertisements. And to that end they have secured permission from the owners and, thru Reeve Tougas, from the town, to build a little park and place their advertising boards at the back and sides thereof." from page 302 & 303, History of Brighton Businesses, by Susan Brose.
