le Perry Coc IN MEMORIAM Jane Perry Cook was a woman ot strong character, of high ideals of achievement and service, of great industry and accomplishment. She considered with care what of respect and consideration was due others and was punctilious in the observance of her own stand- ards. But she was not weak or yielding. Rather timid and nervous by temperament, she forced herself by her clear mind and strong will to meet every social and professional demand. Because she was uncompromising with herself, she seemed at times to be hard and unsympathetic toward those who failed to meet her rec|uirements. But this attitude was entirely impersonal and promptly gave way to one of help and encouragement when a disposition to work was manifested. She found great pleasure in searching out deserv- ing and ambitious pupils and giving them of her resources of mind, information and purse. She lived a strong, gentle, refined, and profitable life. Jane Perry Cook was a leader among the men and women who have devoted their lives to the service of the Chicago Public Schools. Her fellow-teachers, her students, her many friends cherish the memory of her personality, her work, her life.

William Bishop Owen I or twelve years Mr. Owen has stood at the head of the Chicago Normal College; the school which supplies to the second largest city in the United States, the fourth largest in the world, the main stream of teachers of its children. Under his wise jurisdiction, through ways ot his making, thousands of student teachers have come into acquaintance with the value of language, arithmetic, geography, history, science, art, music and writing, as con- ditions of right living. What they have received they have in turn passed on to hundreds of thousands of children under their charge, who, as citizens, will make or mar the future of our city — the world center of to-morrow. So great as this is the work of the Chicago Normal College. The future will show, as the present and past show, the place in this work that belongs to Mr. Owen.
