115111.1.xi:-1-2:xii-11111-1:11:11 1 1 3114112414111 -11119111 TO MISS E. JENNIE STEELE HOSE name, for more than half a century, has been a synonym for inspiration and achievement to the students of the Owego Schools, we respectfully dedicate this first edition of the Tom-tom.', From 1872 to 1916 Miss Steele was a leading factor in the Owego High School, an inspiration to all who came under her influence. To those who most needed her sympathy and help she gave herself most unstintingly, encouraging them to make the most of their talents. Won by her ever- ready sympathy, her keen sense of humor and her unfailing tact, even those whom she found it necessary to urge along the flowery path of knowledgen became her steadfast friends. Her genius for friendship is evidenced by the almost daily tokens of love and esteem that come to her from hundreds of former pupils in all walks of life throughout the country. Although Miss Steele has given so prodigally of her time and thought to her chosen profession, she has always played an important part in the social life of the community, and her beautiful home has become a Mecca for her former pupils who return to visit in their old home town. Both as a teacher and as a friend she occupies a secure position in the respect and affection of Owego and the Owego Schools. -ANNA W. ABEL.
