Weekly Adverter prints Thursday by Chetwynd Business Service. Ads list sales items, room and board wanted, real estate, trailers, and a waterworks notice. Notes on taps going dry due to pumping station pressure with advice to keep water on hand. Vol. 2s No. 33 Rescued Cave-In.

A token Department of Highways crew works on the worst sections of the Chetwynd Hudson Hope road with a few gravel trucks a car and a maintainer trying to make the route passable. No major reconstruction planned and no cabinet decisions announced. Rumors say Peace River Cement Supply Co may explore loading facilities at Chetwynd to save mileage by trucking from Chetwynd rather than Fort St John.
