TERRACE
Several
important
matters
were
dealt
with,
notably
the
matter
of
keeping
the
highway
open,
when
the
Terrace
Board
of
Trade
held
-Its
first
monthly
meeting
of
the
year.
A
proposal
was
made,
which
received
the
strong
approval
of
the
meeting,
to
approach
the
proper
authorities
to
move
the
district
engineer's
office
to
Terrace.
This
because
Terrace
is
geographically
placed
in
the
centre
of
the
constituency,
and
because
Terrace
is
the
centre
of
the
heavy
traffic
arising
from
the
forest
products
industries.
The
question
of
getting
one
of
the
banks
to

In
Terrace
came
up
but
after
some
talk
the
meeting
decided
to
wait
six
months
or
a
year
and
then
try
again.
