Barly in the week of August lst, less than four weeks later, history was again made at Terrace Bay. Water had risen behind the dam more than 77 feet, from the former river level of 822 feet above sea level. This rise in level has formed Terrace Lake in the interim, and pulp logs driven down Long Lake and the Aguasabon River can now be brought into position at the Jack Ladder for their trip to the Woodroom or the Woodyard.. As a matter of record, the first logs were teken from Terrace Lake to the Woodyard on Monday afternoon August end. Handling the wood from Terrace Lake is an interesting process. Eight and sixteen foot logs are taken up the Jack Ladder into the slasher house where they are slashed to 4 foot lengths by large circular saws. The four foot lengths are then moved 1600 feet by.a 3200 foot end- less belt to the corner of the mill Woodrocm where they may be diverted into the Woodroom or vie another endless belt 2900 feet long to a double arm stacker which straddles the second long conveyor. The stacker elevates the logs to any one of six block piles in the Woodyard where the wood is stored until required in the mill. o~-0-0 TENNIS -CLUB NEWS Membership in the Terrace Bay Tennis Club has risen to, 46, an increase of 12 in the past week.
