Top priorities in for the mayor of Gluckstadt this year include road projects to improve traffic flow, progress on the city’s first park and support for the new businesses.
“We are continuing our efforts to do something to alleviate traffic congestion,” said Walter C. Morrison IV, who was appointed as the first mayor of Gluckstadt after incorporation June 6, 2021, and elected last year when the city held its first municipal election.

Whether you watch the Super Bowl for the football game, the half-time show, the advertisements, or just to join in the fun, the food is my favorite part. I love tailgate food and snack foods. It is a special treat when we get to eat complete junk food for dinner.
Because most of these recipes are complete calorie bombshells, they are not foods we should eat every day. Saving them for special gatherings, like the Super Bowl, make them even more special.

Robert St. John says sometimes we’re too hard on Mississippi. We know the flaws. We’ve lived with them. But we can’t see the forest for the pine trees, as they say.
Marco had never seen a pine plantation.

Below is an opinion column by Bobby Harrison:
The effort of Mississippi House leaders and others to expand programs providing public funds to private schools validates the oft-repeated quote that “history may not repeat itself, but it often rhymes.”
Efforts by Mississippi legislators to send public funds to private schools go back to at least the 1960s.
