GEORGE B. RENNINGER

  George Bennett Renninger, a bright Juniata boy who was a member of 
the present senior class in the borough high school, and a son of Mr. 
and Mrs. C. H. Renninger, died of tuberculosis yesterday morning at 
12.50 o'clock in the family home at 1509 Seventh avenue.  He was born 
in this city on June 25, 1898, and entered the borough schools when Mr. 
Renninger several years ago moved his household into a new home in East 
Juniata.  Surviving are the parents and three sisters of the deceased 
young man: Esther, Miriam and Lois, all at home.  George Renninger was 
called at the time of the greatest expectancy of life.  He was 
gentlemanly and studious to a degree that indicated great things for 
his career, and his going out on the threshold of manhood comes to the 
family and many loving friends as a terrible blow.  He was a consistent 
Christian and active as a member of the Fifteenth Street, Juniata, 
Methodist Episcopal church.  Funeral service over his remains will be 
conducted by the pastor, the Rev. J. K. Kniseley, at noon tomorrow in 
the bereaved home.  At 1.25 p.m. the remains will be taken to McVeytown 
for interment.
