ARDELLE M. TOZIER Miss Ardelle M. Tozier, whose death occurred in Randolph, Maine, in January ot this year, was widely known in educational circles throughout Maine, especially in Aroostook County, where she was for many years associated with Aroostook State Nor- mal School. Hers was a lite ot intense and unswerving devotion to the highest ideals ot education, a lite worthy ot recognition and tribute. Miss Tozier received her education at Hebron Academy and Farmington Normal School. She also attended summer sessions at Harvard and at the School of Library Science, Montpelier, Vermont. Besides teaching in the elementary grades, in high school, and in the normal schools at Farmington and Presque Isle, she served as super- intendent of schools in Old Town and in Presque Isle. In particular, her many years at Aroostook State Normal School are entitled to special mention. Miss Tozier, who came to A. S. N. S. as one ot the three members ot the original statf in I903, did a great deal in organizing the new school. From that time until her retirement in I935, she continued to set an example of fine scholarship and service tor those whose lives touched hers. An outstanding teacher ot literature, she was also an excellent grammarian and a painstaking and scholarly writer. Her association with the administration ot the school library is attended by the declicatory bronze tablet which is atfixed to a wall ot that library and which bears the words: Ardelle M. Tozier Library. Placed here by the Class of l905. A teacher of strong personality and high attainment, fair in her judgments, unsel- 'tishly devoted to her family, Miss Tozier well deserved the admiration she inspired in those who knew her. ISI
