ty high school. On the Sunday night'
of the shooting, Penington gave a!
glove belonging to a young lady to
friend: asking heir to return it, as he
"was leaving." Tin1 idea occurred to
those who witnessed the conversation
that ihc young man meant ho was
1vlltg the State, when, in truth, ho
was ut.iy iotiirr.inu to school here.
At the hearing given him Saturday,
he r.,"?'ed a nerfo.t alibi,
" Giaybeat, hjeTore hits death; ts alleged
on ntiV" iolu flieTiuS that he
knew who did the shooting, hut so
far as can ho learned, he never divulged
the name of the guilty one.

State College Here
The Skyland Post of West Jefferson
last week carried the following
story which should be uf interest to
friends of Appalachian State College
here:
"If Professor C. M. Dickson were
to see fit to withdraw his support

at Boone, the said school would
begin to feel that, the depression is
on.
"It was learned here Monday that
Professor Dickson has six children
in school at Boone and that by the
end of the summer tern \ will have
eight children enrolled in the college.
One of this number is a daughi
t-r-in-law.
As a promoter of common sense
education. Professor Dickson 13 practicing
what he so ably preaches, and
is preparing his sons and daughters
to carry on in the future."

February S. 1932, aged -! yearsjs3
eight and nnp-half months. She is' <_ ;
survived by her father and mother, j a1
seven brothers, Russeii, Clyde, Ford. pi
! Ralph. Vance, Harold, Allen, and iv
three sisters, Mabel. Lucy and Myr-J
tie. all of whom reside in Wat3Uga si
County. Five of the brothers and sis- 01
i tcis are serving: as teachers in the n
j county. h
i The story of the life of the de- ai
ceased is one of orderly development
and beauty throughout its duration, f'
In early childfcuOu she became eon- C
scious and aware of God's supervision r
of the life of this world; She fell in r
love with God's Book, with His house it
and with His people. Readily she be- C
came a faithful pupil in Sabbath p
School. In her thirteenth yea* afc* T
j marie ?* nubiii . f.i n pf faith " V
j Jesus Christ as her Saviour aifdii!
j joined Uenson's Methodist J X
Church. She remained a devoted mem- e
ber and servant of her church until f
death. While yet a youth she accept- i<
j ed the office of teachers of the chili
dren's class which she held uatii her ~
I health failed. During her tenure of
office she attended two training!
schools for Sunday School workers! 1
I and won certificates of credit, in or- j f
der that she might more efficientlyj ?*
j give the religious instruction.
Edith had all worthy ambition for ?
her life. She aspired to be a teacher.^
and pursued diligently a course of)'1
training for the work. She finished;cl
high school at the age of sixteen. t?
then attended Appalachian State ?
Teachers College for three sessions. c
Thus duly certified for school teach- n
mg she entered the profession and
taught one full year. She began a ?
j second school, but at the end of five
-weeks suffered health collapse that M
necessitated her resignation from the s<
position. She went to her home to V
recuperate and there reacted favora-j f
My to rest and treatment. However.' v
ar. attack of influenza in the spring;
of 1931 brought about a serious re-i a
lapse. In July she underwent an op- j c
eration at Grace Hospital, Banners j b
Elk, for tonsil removal. During this}5
illness she suffered an attack of f
pneumonia, which developed a com-j *
plication that induced a tubercular i e
condition. This malady was duly di-j
i agnosed by attending physicians and j d
proper treatment begun. For several tl
weeks hoi condition appeared to show t<
satisfactory progress with good prospcct
of recovery. However, her wast- r
j ed strength and the insidiousncss of
I the attack proved t??<> great, and tho 'S
long battle was lost. =
Despite her aV:=hakcr. faith in God 5
|pre the devout tr?W fthe had in the =
i reality of immortal life, Edith never- s
greatly -desired to live. In =
this desire and the fight she made =
j to achieve it, she bad the full meas- ?
\ uve. of sympathy & lid devoted atic.v I
tion of her family. Their patience ;
and constancy throughout her long I
ifmesr. were examples of a beautiful I
family affection. Her room became
no less than a shrine, and hundreds ;
