Badar's was the small store next to Fred's Meat Market (Fred was his son). It offered kids from St. Barbara's and East Denison Elementary School a place to buy school supplies, candy, and ice cream.
As you entered the store, a gumball machine was the first thing encountered just left of the door. Inside the machine were the desireable striped gumball "winners" that got you a free 5 cent candy bar if you were lucky enough to get a winner for your penny.
Just behind the gumball machine was the candy counter with it's array of candy and gums, a partial list of which appears just below.

Across the aisle the students could buy pencils, fountain pens, 10 cent bottles of ink, notebook paper, and other supplies.
The store also had a small soda fountain towards the back where you could enjoy milkshakes, sodas, Boston coolers, phosphates, and banana splits.
The property was purchased by the Badarzynski's in 1935.
John Badarzynski died in 1961. With both schools closing down, the business might not have survived very much longer, anyway.
