Firemen Build a Church

Few churches have the distinction of being built by firemen, but the little Church of St. James near McNair, Miss., can claim the honor.

A number of weeks ago, while the building was under construction. Bill Dructta and Dick Walcott, firemen of Engine Company No. 7 of Natchez, Miss., volunteered to build the pews for the church which was to have a seating capacity of 120. Undaunted by lack of funds, material, equipment and experience, they rolled up their sleeves and prepared to tackle the job.
