By JOHN A. CLUNEY

However, the accompanying photo, which had been transferred to a metal plate seemed to be serving it's purpose for nothing better than a HEAVYWEIGHT, until I happen ed to get to thinking about how much fun the mayor of Washing ton Hill" gets out of this vale of tears called Life.

Act Requiring
Plumber License
To Be Enforced

The ordinance making it neces-
sary for plumbing contractors or
those engaged in plumbing work
to obtain a city license will be
strictly enforced. Mayor John r.
Watts said this week.
The ordinance provides fines
and otner penalties for those en-
gaging in plumbing work with
out first obtaining a city permit.
The ordinance was passed by the
city last year and the action was
taken in order to protect the pub
lie against inexperienced or un-
qualified contractors.
Mayor Watts also said that
plans are underway to provide for
a similar city license for cleo
tricians.
He also warned against the
practice of bridging electric fus-
IS instead of replacing them. In
vestigation has shown that a num-
Der of recent home fires have
been started in this manner, he
said.

Jackson county's E-Bond quota
for the 7th War Loan drive which
osgins Mapsl4 i 81 253,00a hish-
est vet assigned the COUNTY in a
War Loan drive, and the third
highest E-Bond quota in the state,

nance Director, announced this
week.
Only two counties ranking
Jackson in assigned E-Bond quo
tas are Forrest with 81 ,485. 900,
and Kinds with 81 $50, 600.
Quota Tor other securities in
the 7th War Loan is $3.50, 900. Civ
ing the county quotas for all
bonds totaling 81, 703, 600, The
greatest increase is in the eoun-
tvs E-quota, as compared to 9TH
er drives.
This quota is high. we realize,
but we must take into considera-
ton thatt we will have only two
war loan drives this year instead
Of the usual three. and that the
war is speeding up and costs are
reaching all-time highs" Mr.. Her
ring said. AS usual quotas III
assigned to counties on facts con-
sidered to reflect buying eapaei-
ties.
Mississippi and Jackson coun-
ty are making plans to wind up
the E-Bond campaign in seven
days, using the battle cry Seven
DAYS for the Seventh This means
harder work and early buying,
but county leaders and past ex-
perienee tell us that busy people
can and will do the job more las
lily IN seven DAYS than in seven
weeks. Therefore, every effort
will be made to reach our E-Bond
quotas by the end of the 9TH day,

For
Of
Beach Given
Repoirs. Removed
Of Debris. Included
In Cleon-U Up Move.

Work which will make the
Pascagoula beach the cleanest on
the Gulf Coast has been started
by Hancock Construction Com
pany on authorization by Mayor
John r.. Watts and the city COM
missioners.
Repairs on the seawall, remov-
al of all debris, trash and grass
from the beach and landscaping
of the Municipal Beach Park
grounds are called for in the con-
tract and will be completed in
approximately 80 days, according
to billiard Hancock of the con-
struction company.
Considerable driftwood and
other trash were washed onto the
beach in the recent heavy wind
storm with attending high waters
and this added to the trash, sea-
weed and marsh grass already
present has made the work par
ticularly opportune. it was point
ed out.
Mf. Hancock stated that the
seawall itself is in unusually good
condition and will require little
work except for some necessary
work on the expansion joints and
a few cracks.
This is primarily maintenance
work on the wall" Mr.. Hancock
said, "for there is no erosion or
settlement apparent. This seawall
is in better shape than almost any
other which has come to my at
tention."
The contract for the sweeping
cleanup and repair program is
the first OF its kind ever given
for the beach although sections
have been cared for by individu-
ais, officials said.
The landscaping of the park
grounds will include the removal
of dead trees, fertilizing of 9TH
ers and filling in where the
ground has washed away.
