Mr. L. A. Martin, Manager of the local Hudson Bay Company store, has returned to Terrace Bay with his assistant, Bill Schoyen, and plans are underway for the official opening of the store on or about September 12th. In addition to a complete stock of wearing apparel for all members of the family, the store will also carry a large stock of major appliances, hardware, drug sundries, boots and shoes, fresh fruits, vegetables and groceries. During a brief interview, Mr. Martin also outlined a Shopping Service which would be established here. This service will assure 3-day delivery from Hudson Bay's retail store at Winnipeg. Until the permanent shopping centre is completed in the townsite, the Hudson Bay Company will operate in temporary quarters across from the Post Office in the Lower Camp. Work is progressing on the building to be used by Terrace Groceteri& as temporary quarters. At the time of going to press, however, Mr. G. M.
