Narrator: Money was tight when Everett took his photographs.
Buffeted by two world wars and the lingering hardships of the depression, the residents
of Ridgeway coped as best they could.

were welcome diversions to the economic realities of the time.

Announcer: The Amos and Andy Show!
John Moe, Ridgeway High School Alumnus: I remember Amos and Andy.
That was one where the family got together to listen to that.
Bob McQueen, Ridgeway High School Alumnus: We used to hurry home from school.
There were programs for youngsters.
I remember Jack Armstrong, the all-American boy sponsored by Wheaties cereal, and I think
there was Little Orphan Annie, and there were a number of shows, Buck Rogers or Buck Jones
or something like that.
That was youngsters and that normally needed around 6:00.
Then we had normally our evening meal, and then the evenings at our home, the radio became
the priority of my parents.
If it was something that they weren’t interested, maybe I could use the radio.
But my turn was after school ‘til dinner time.
After that it was their turn.
