This time of year, advertisers everywhere are pushing their Christmas sales. In 1932, the advertisers weren’t quite as prevalent, but there were several interesting ads in the December 22 edition of the Ridgeway Journal. For example, Simmons Café was Ridgeway’s headquarters for Christmas candies, cigars and cigarettes. Missouri Public Service offered electric gifts such as irons, toasters, lamps, and waffle irons. The Ridgeway Journal suggested that a Remington typewriter might make an excellent gift. Jerry Katz at K. C. Jobbers had fur-trimmed coats, silk dresses and men’s suede jackets for sale as well as more practical garments such as union suits, winter caps, children’s bloomers, and men’s wool socks. Stoner’s Drug Store had a big variety of dolls, toys, toilet sets, bill folds and many other gift ideas.
