32 The Branksome Slogan Branksome Hall, health, success and happiness for the years to come. Let us then be up and doing, With a heart for any fate. Lillice Read, one of our House prefects, is a Toronto girl who has been at Branksome for the last four years. She is on the first hockey team, and is an enthusiastic player of tennis, badminton, and basket- ball, and by her splendid enthusiasm has done much to encourage oithers to take part. Lillice holds the Diploma of the Royal Life Saving Society, w ' hich is the highest award granted. Just being happy is the thing she likes to do Looking on the bright side rather than the blue. Winnifred Gibson, a day prefect born in Toronto, has attended Branksome for the last five years. She is the Chieftain of the MacLeod Clan. Debs is one of our best students and an ardent sportswoman. We shall all miss Winnifred very much next year, when she goes to Varsity. Nothing can withhold success from one w ho has the will to suc- ceed and the aibility to work. Elizabeth Brydon, who lives in Brampton, has been at Branksome for three years. This year she is a Clan Chieftain and the Editor of the Slogan. She enters into sports en- thusiastically and has proved an excel- lent forward on the first Basketball team. Next year Libs is planning to go to MacDonald Hall at Guelph. A dear, a true industrious friend. Irla Mueller comes from Water- loo and has ' been in ' the school for three year-s. She is Secretary- Treasurer of the Beta Kappa. Irla holds the same position on our first hockey team as she held last year and is also on our lacrosse team, while she enters into all the other sports. She expects to enter McGill University next fall and we shall all be sorry to see her go. Few hearts like hers with virtue warm, Few heads with knowledge so in- formed. Clare Brown, a Vancouverite, though she only came to Branksome after Christmas last year, has won a place in the hearts of all. Her amazing capacity for work and play has raised her to the position of Head Girl. Her willingness to lend a help- ing hand to all proves Dickens ' words : There is nothing better than the faithful service of the heart. Camie has entered enthusiastically into sports this year. Our good wishes go with her. Young as I am, yet would I do my best. An open-hearted maiden true and pure. Joyce Sweatman is now completing her eleventh year and has only once failed to obtain general proficiency. She is one of our clan chieftains and takes an interest in all sports. Although we are confident that Joyce
