DAILY NEWS RED BLUFF TEHAMA COUNTY THE VOICE OF TEHAMA COUNTY SINCE 1885 VOLUME 128, NUMBER 95 HOW TO REACH US On the Web: Residents look at times gone by Last week's column drew many a person to tell about the way Red Bluff used to be on the streets of Red Bluff. There is no doubt that stories of past years are recognized by many a remaining families and past residents. Unfortunately I had a battle with my computer last week and ended up spelling a couple past stores names incorrectly. Stricker's Bakery and Bosse's Meat Market names were spelled incorrectly. Several people told of some other important stores which have changed and or disappeared since about 1966. Walnut and Main were hosts to Clark's Drug Store on Walnut, and Crocker Bank was across Main. There also was a little lunch room behind the Crocker Bank. Sprouse Rietz and Cox Electric were on the same side of Walnut St., as the Crocker Bank. The Mode 0 Day Store where women's clothing was sold and next to it was the Rasco Variety Store was called a "dime store." Not only have local residents shared their memories of days gone by, other current residents expressed their appreciation of knowing that Red Bluff had hosted many thriving businesses in days gone by. The responses to old time locations of past businesses brought back memories to me as a young child. I believe it was that the J.C. Penney's Store was once located on Walnut St. before it located on Main Street. I was a very young girl who used to earn money taking care of small children.
