26 The Branksome Slogan INSTALLATION OF PREFECTS The annual installation of the prefects and officers of the school was held on Wednesday, October 22. Miss Read ratified the appointments of the sub-prefects and clan chieftains and, with a few words to each, installed individually the sixteen prefects and Joan Langlois as the head girl of the school. An explanation of the school standards to the parents, friends and new girls followed. The school flags were then placed in the four corners of the gymnasium. The school song effectively completed a very impressive ceremony. That evening, the newly-appointed officers of the school were entertained at dinner by Miss Read. Toasts were proposed to the new boarders, the new prefects, the head girl and Miss Read. The dinner was a fitting climax to a memorable day.

The service began with a cornet solo by Captain Parr from the back of the church. He played ' ' Hark the Herald Angels Sing , a perfect beginning to the service. The processional carcl was ' ' Masters in This Hall and the school, led by the prefects and the clan chieftains, came into the church on either side and met at the centre aisle. The singing of the carols was evenly distributed between the junior and the senior schools, some being in unison, some in parts and some sung by the two special choirs consisting of the 1st and 2nd forms in one and the Chapel and Choral Choirs in the other. Added to these, Miss Faver sang a solo which few of us will ever forget. I feel we owe a great deal of thanks
