PICAYUNE — Brick work on the exterior of an addition to historic city hall appears complete. The expansion to the building will provide space for most city offices. When complete the city will vacate the current location of city hall on Beech Street, the old Crosby Chemicals building. That will allow the building’s new owner, Huey Stockstill Inc., to begin operations at the site.

By Rheta Grimsely Johnson/Syndicated columnist
I haven’t seen the Ladies’ Home Journal in about a million years, except maybe in the dentist’s office when I was trying to avoid a television permanently set on Fox News.
Somebody’s grandchild was selling magazines for a school project, and Ladies’ Home Journal was the only one on the list I recognized. Now it comes to the house.
Let’s just say: It’s not my mother’s Ladies’ Home Journal. This month, right behind a feature called “A Country of People Who Never Stop Eating” is one called “Nice Girls Do Get Tattoos.” - Health care market needs oversight
