By a recent survey of Belfair by the writer, I find Belfair has had a very progressive 1946, Many new business firms have been alded to the already progressive community. Among new firms are the Vicel Lumber Company, with John Wenz as manager. Mr. and Mrs. Stuyts have an up-to-date dry goods store, and they are always ready to serve you in their pleas- ing'manner. Mr. and Mrs. Olsen have  new grocery and meat tr- Rt: "ALSO in connection is 'afe, and Mrs. Olsen is always ready to' serve you a good meal. L.E.

At tle intersection 6f the old Belfair highway and the Hood Canal highway we have an attractive filling station managed hy- Martin Johnson. On the north shore road close to Belfair we have a new garage which is always ready to serve tim pnblie. David Crosswhite has built up a paying chicken busi- ness, And last but not the least, Belfair has organized a commun- ity church under the management of Mr. Bates. At present church is being conducted in the school house, but hope to before too long have a community church build- ing for services. There are also many homes built and remgdeled, and so it looks like Befair. the largest town in the world for its size, has had a progressive 1946. Let's let the good work go on. Veteran N. P.
