50 Years Ago, 1961 T Agassiz is a difficult name to spell, and no one knows this better than the post office. Back in 1961 a card arrived from England with the address: Bill and Rose, Box 104, Agarring. Yes, our post office delivered it to the correct home of Bill and Rose Daubeny. T In 1961 local businesses placed Christmas greetings in the paper, such as this one by Manco Systems Ltd., now known as Britco: “May the sweet harmony of your Christmas holidays be a symphony of gay times and happy memories. Joy and Peace be yours!” Other wellknown businesses of the ’60s placing thanks and best wishes included: Morrow’s Trucking & Reddi-Mix, Conca Dora Italian Restaurant, Flo Mart Trade Post: Ken and Betty Brohman, Agassiz
