‘Here Nn There” by Yvonne: Moen HIS WEEK I’d like ta give you a little in- * formation on a few of Terraces bakeries. And maybe with your help you can, ,help me find some of the missing pieces. I will start back in 1921-27, George and Annie Powers had moved to Terrace from Hamilton, Ont.: George planned to work in Mr. Little’s sawmill. Shortly. after. they arrived, the mill bummed down. George then borrowed enough moncy to biy an oven and set up a bake shop. He baked bread and buns for sale to Prince Rupert, Terrace , Smithers and Hazelton. The bake shop: was apparently on Kalum St near the tacks and across the street from a barber shop and a pie shop that special- ized in Boston cream pie. . Daughter Norma and = son George recall- many interesting occurrences and incidences from those-days. They retiember whenn * Mr. Bishop was fixing some lights on the outside of his theatre he fell from the ladder and broke both legs. Mr. Powers then had to carry him to the doctor — Dr. Bleaker. * Mr. Sundal was in a car acci- dent and his head went through the windshield. Mr. Powers brought him to the bake shop and put flour. on the cut, which was very serious. The flour stopped the flow of blood and possibly saved his tife. : At the time the Powers had lived here, Norma and George (both very young then) think they lived where the arena is now. Now what,..I wonder, if Mr. Powers’ bakery. maybe started the chain of bake shops hat opened, inf errace. a Later: feltow: aimed Mrs Boker So ate S birth: from fire:and ice Two: ‘young writers have come up.with their own legend of how the bald: eagle received its white head.
