We, the people of Jackson County,
Mississippi, in order to win the war,
and aid in establishing justice, domes-
tic happiness and insure liberty, pledge
ourselves to support the Administra
tons war policies to the end. Build
and operate ships; raise bumper crops
and contribute literally to the war
funds.
There is no commercial and indus
trial center more richly supplied with
raw materials and building sites than
the port of Pascagoula.
One of the most pleasant thorough
fares in Pascagoula is Market street,
| 100 feet wide. Modern homes and
happy people should dwell there.
After the brilliant occupation of
Pascagoula by the famous Indian tribe
and descendants of Iberville, the port
has become the center of Industrial
civilization.

PAUL B. JOHNSON

Judge Paul B. Johnson, the leading
candidate for congress to succeed
Hon. Pat Harrison, is in every way
an ideal man to represent the District
and, with the great lead he has. it is
only reasonable to assume that he will
be the representative.
Judge Johnson is young, vigorous,
well equipped mentally, a speaker of
unusual ability, a, keen debater, ready
at repartee, possesses rare good
humor, and is altogether a decidedly
attractive personality.
Such a man is he as Harrison, Ven
able, Quin and others of the younger
men who made early records in cong
ress and have kept Mississippi in the
eyes of the nation.
A large majority of the counties
and large plurality of the voters have
declared Judge johnson to be their
choice as Representative from this
District, and we feel absolutely sure
that this expression of their desire and
confidence will be emphasized by a
very decided majority vote on the
tenth of this month.-Free Press,
