flown at half-staff as college alumni
mourned the passing of Tommy" as
he was affectionately known.
Governor O'Conor praised Dr.. Fell
today, saying eve have lost q fine
educator"
During Dr.. FelFs administration
St. Johns was military college and
hundred or IT'S graduates entered
the army. Among the college alum
nj now holding high command are
Mai. Gen. Russell p. Hartle, comman-
der of the American EXpeditionalE
Forces in Ireland, and Brig. Gen. Al
Ian Mcbride, who was with Lieut..
Gen. Jonathan Wainwright on the
Bataan peninsula.
DR.. Fell, who headed the college
from 1886 to 1928, came to st. Johns
from New Windsor College, now
called Blue Ridge College.
After his retirement as college
president, he lived in Annapolis and
then made his home at Markham, Va.
Born in Liverpool, England, in 1850,
the son Of a British army surgeon who
was killed in the Crimean war, DR..
Fell was educated at King College
and the University Of London
lie served in the British Army
from 1880 to 1882 before coming TO
the United States in 1884.
During his long career as an edu-
Gator, he was awarded many honor
airy degrees and was a member Of
numerous societies and clubs.
He is survived by a son, Lieut., Col.
Edgar 7. Fell, U. S. A. Three other
sons, John C. Fell, Thomas Fell and
Francis Fell are dead.
1t has been eighteen years since DR..
Thomas Fell retired from the presi-
dency of st. Johns College. In eight
cen years a man and his works are
often forgotten. But in his case it
is safe to assume that several thOus-
and persons upon hearing of his death
yesterday at the venerable age Of 81
years, will pause for a moment Wher-
ever they may be to pay silent trib-
ute 10 his memory.
Most NJ those thousands will be
from among The survivors ~ the T.
500 students who passed through ~.
johns during the thirty-gcvcn years
Of his incumbepcy. They will include
also the older residents Of Annapolis
who knew him as one Of the leading
citizens Of the town, and persons
throughout Maryland who recall him
as a distinguished educator.
DR.. Fell recognized the limitations
of the small college, but he also APP
preciated it's value. His greatest ser
vice to the institution probably lay in
the fact that he made no attempt to
follow the educational fads and fash
ions Of his day rechristen it ''univer-
sity," create new departments, build
a stadium, hire a crack football coach,
dazzle the neighborhood with new
buildings and palm off physical
growth upon a simple and Rullible
public.
lle was content to gather as capa
bic faculty as he could, bring the
enrollemnt up to modest maximum
and relieve the college Of its debt.
DR.. Fell reaped to the full the re-
ward Of the teacher and educator,
which was to be beloved by the thOus-
ands of young men who came under
his influence in their most impress
sionabIe years and who, in later life,
felt the better for having known
him."

HOT OFF THE CREDIBLE

A simple way to remove grease
stains is to spread butter on them and
lay the article in the sun.
For a simple treatment when ink is
spilled on carpet, pour milk over it
and take up with a spoon. Keep re-
peating this treatment until the spot
has disappeared
Do not use soap too often when
cleaning refrigerators as the odor too
often remains.

did before the war.
The regular services offered by
banks to provide safety for money
expedite payments, facilitate thrift
and so on, are still as important as
ever We continue to offer them,
