Most of us took only a momentary interest in that phe- nomenon, perhaps some ignored the fact, until one day, by chance or otherwise, we found ourselves pupils in this school, and then our indifference changed to keen interest and enjoyment in every phase of life and activity within Branksome Hall. Ten years have slipped past and, in spite of the many changes, it is the same old Branksome. Perhaps those who followed us think it has im- proved with experience. Be that as it may, if they are enjoying its life half as much as we did, they will be grateful to the kind fate which brought them to it. Many miles divide former friends and classmates now, but we can always rejo ' ce in the common bond of having spent our school days together at Branksome.

Perhaps the latter looked brightest then, but after all it was the satisfaction of having ' accomplished some liard task which gave the keen pleasure to the play-time. If all the year were playing holidays, To sport woidd be as tedious as to woi ' k. With the encouragement and companionship of teachers and fellow-pupils, we had our first lessons in finding ways to accom- plish the tasks assigned. Having left this sympathetic atmosphere to take up our various duties, we are able to apply these lessons, and get keen pleasure in doing so. May the next ten years find our school enjoying ever-increasing success, and may we, her children, ever strive to be loyal to the high ideals which she has set before us !
