SHREVES RETURN TO
FARM IN CALIFORNIA
Mr. and Mrs. George Shreves
and their three daughters, Joann,
Judy and Joyce, said farewell to
their friends here this week-end
and set out on their long journey
to the states. They are returning
to their former home at Chico,
Calif., where they will again op
erate their farm.
The family left here Saturday
for the trip over the Alaska High
way, which they are making in
their truck. They made their
home here for approximately 18
months during which time Mr.
Shreves was manager of the
Standard Oil bulk station for the
Co-Op.
The Shreve’s truck has built-in
sleeping and eating quarters, and
it should attract a lot of attention
on arrival in the states as many
of Mr. Shreve’s Alaskan hunting
trophies are tied on the top.
During their last week here
the family was entertained by
