The Clans It has become a well-established custom at Branksome to add some- thing new to the school life every year. I am glad to say that ours is a progressive spirit. Our achievement this year has been the introduction oif a clan system into the school. This is very appropriate as it is in perfect harmony with Branksome ' s Scottish background. There are eight clans. Clan Mac- Alpine, Clan MacGregor, Clan Campbell, Clan Douglas, Clan Macleod, Clan McLean, Clan Ross, and Clan Stewart. Of these the first four are composed of house girls, the latter four o f day girls. The primary purpose of the clans was to increase, through inter-clan competition, the interest and participation in sports and other phases of the school life. The clans have fully justified their existence in this respect. Each clan has its own colours which serve to distinguish the players in the various games. I might add that while the individual is loyal to her own clan, and there is much spirited and friendly rivalry between them, yet they all work harmoniously for the good of the school, carried on by the fine school spirit which makes Branksome what it is.

18 Ths: Branksom Slogan Lacrosse An innoviation in the way of sports was introduced this year at Branksome in the game Lacrosse. A number oi the girls have entered into the game under the able leadership of Miss Ronaldson, and have developed much enthusiasm for this sport which has been called the national game of Canada. It was originated by the Indians. The team consists of twelve players, the object of each side being to get the ball, by means of a crosse, between the opponent ' s goal posts. Of course there are many rules which make the game more complicated. We are watching with interest the progress of the team and hope that it will contribute materially to the school sports.
