HUMBOLDT CITY ELECTION DEC. 7 Special to The Jackson Sun HUMBOLDT, Dec. will elect a Board of Mayor and Aldermen on Thursday, Dec. 7, to serve for a two years' term, beginning January 1, 1940. Mayor Howard J.

Foltz, who 1 has served for past six years, has no opposition as head of the city government, and a Citizens' Ticket for the aldermen to complete board was qualified prior to the dead line on Nov. 23, as follows: J. Paul Craddock, George D. Dodson, Bill Leath, J. D.

Cole and James W. Brooks. With the small number qualified to vote in Thursday's election, as the law requires a voter in city election that is of poll tax paying age two past years poll tax receipts and all voters to be properly registered, there is only a small vote, in comparison to election years ago, when more than 2,000 qualified. The registration books show only about 900 qualified to vote in Thursday's election. The chief reason advanced the low interest in the coming election is that the Board of Mayor and Aldermen's ticket will be unopposed.

I write from the standpoint of, an educator who is responsible for several hundred young men and women who have been committed to our care by parents in Tennessee and states adjoining. parents send to us students for instruction in educational courses, and for training by example, by wholesome influences, and by such restraints as we can properly throw around them.

The city of Jackson has a reputation far and wide which is enviable. This reputation is due in large measure to our splendd churches which are led by ministers of exceptional talents and consecration. Many of the patrons of our know Jackson pastors personally. They know also the laymen and representative women in these churches. They know, many of them, the city of Jackson and its wholesome atmosphere by experience, because many of those who send their children here to college were themselves educated in Jackson in the years that are gone.

Jackson, in the minds of those who know the city, is not just another town of thirty thousand in population. In the minds of the Jackson is an unusual city. I do not say this in order to pat ourselves upon the back. I say it in order to remind all of our people of a fact that is established outside of Jackson. I cannot think that we should break faith with those who compliment us by sending their children and their friends to Jackson to be educated.

To break faith with them would mean the loss of business, as as the loss of prestige. Why not continue to hold our high rating in the minds of those who wish to do with us by daring to be different, as well as by daring to be righteous? There is not the shadow of a doubt in my mind that if we open up our picture shows in Jackson for Sunday patronage that a heavy burden of restraint would be placed upon our college, and that many of those who send students to Jackson now would be inclined to send these students to other places where such temptations to break the Holy Sabbath day would not be thrown down before them with all the glamour and allurements of the modern picture show. There are many other arguments that I feel like making Sunday movies, but I am limiting myself to a presentation of the issue from the standpoint of our college. JOHN JETER HURT.
