1l1H HDIEIIDQTRTIEIIID. Joel Sutton Kendall. Pnoiflssson j. S. KI5NDA1,1,, President of the North Texas State Normal College since its establishment five years ago, died October 7, 1906, at his home in Denton. Though for sev- eral years he had been afflicted by that lingering malady, con- sumption, his death was so sudden and unexpected that it came as a great shock, not only to the students of the Normal, but also to the citizens of Denton and innumerable friends throughout the State. Professor J. S. Kendall was born in Wilkes County, Georgia, November 4, 1849, and was, when he died, about fifty-seven years old. His early education was received in the schools of Georgia. Later he was a student at the University of Georgia and also at the University of Virginia. His removal to Texas occurred in 1875, when he came to Honey Grove, where he taught in the graded schools for nine years. Later he went to Glasgow, Mo., where he for seven years lilled the position of President of Pritchett College. On his return to Texas, Professor Kendall became Superintendent of the graded schools of Honey Grove, occupying that position until elected Superintendent of Public Instruction in the State of Texas. Resigning this office in 1899, he was appointed President of the North Texas State Normal at Denton. Presi- dent Kendall came to Denton during the year IQOI to take up his work in this school, and to his untiring efforts is due in a large measure the phenomenal success of this institution. Throughout his life Mr. Kendall was a godly man and took an active part in the affairs of his chosen Church, the Methodist Episcopal Church. Besides his religious affiliation, he was a member of three fraternal organizations, the Knights of Pythias, the Masonic Lodge, and the Ancient Order of United VVorkmen. ' President Kenda1l's high conceptions of the duties of his position, his ardent work at all times, and his unceasing efforts for the betterment of the North Texas State Normal have ac- complished results almost without equal in the State. His faith in humanity and his desire to uplift those with whom he came in contact made for him hosts of friends, not only in Texas, but also in almost every State of the Union.
