Firework prices remain low in the midst of inflation
SUMMARY: This 4th of July, the cost of a cookout for 10 people has risen by 20% compared to five years ago.

Despite economic challenges, they keep prices low by importing directly from China, offering items that range from 99 cents to $150. The American Pyrotechnics Association predicts a $100 million increase in consumer spending on fireworks this year. D and D Fireworks also provides discounts for first responders and police officers, ensuring everyone can celebrate safely and affordably.

The War Memorial Building in Jackson
SUMMARY: In downtown Jackson, a special art piece commemorates veterans, particularly highlighting a returning World War I soldier. The War Memorial building serves as a tribute to soldiers rather than war itself, featuring the Mississippi Unknown Soldiers Monument alongside sculptures by George Albert Rer. These bar reliefs, modeled after Ray Scott, depict the same soldier in various life stages, from combat to homecoming. Completed just before World War II, the building primarily honors earlier battles, with World War II references limited to the elevator panels. On Veterans Day, the Daily Sip expresses gratitude to veterans for their service.
