Fellow worked like a dog to pass his intelligence test before iue Department of Animal Psychology at Columbia. When he had finished little more 'han the technicality of having two more feet than the average fresh- nan prevented him from mati.u- lating. Fellow's master, Jacob Herbert of Detroit, maintains that his five- year-old German shepherd dog has the intellizen§ of an eight-year- old boy, and knows beiween 300 and 400 spoken words. After the test, asked ifshe be- lieved the dog actually thought, Professor Warden, head of the de- partment of animal psychology, begged the question. "I would not say thai," he re- plied. "We can't even say that people do." Fellow flunked very few 'ques- tions in his college examination. Obeyed Commands The commands which hé obeyed with alacrity. as if he got immedi- ately the full meaning of short phrases, included: "Go, to the win- dow," "Look oui," "Put your paw on the radiator," "Come here," "Go to the front door." "Put your head in the lady's lap." Herbert spoke in a casual coa- versational tone without making gestures or noticeable inflections He dirfuiod Felleyw from behind a sereen for some time and the dog was slower and more uncertain about' responding. But' Fellow immediately after- wards amazed the class by going to the window and peering out when his master asked him to see if his car was still parked outside, 'He. loves 'o ride in automobiles but not the kind that shake," said Herbert. 'He hates vibration and jears it." Herbert gave the dog a silver dollar and asked him to put it on table. Fellow threw the coin with his mouth to the centre of 'he table, then removed it by re- est and presented it to a design- ated woman. Names At remembering names and faces he was a veritable Addison Simms f Seattle Or maybe Fellow made it names and smells. At any rate, ntroduced to several members 'of the class, Fellow was able to pick them later when their names were called. Fellow has rescued many maidens in distress in the movies and put the curse of an evil destiny on many a villian. He has also ap- peared- on the stage. His devotion to his master, who says he taught him everything through merely conversing with him as one would with a child. has given him the benevolent and noblé expression of a friendly philosopher. 3 LAMALAMEA!
