Page 6 THE BRANKSOME SLOGAN Editorial Branksome girls, this is your Slogan! Not the efforts of one person, but the enthusiastic spirit of many has made this magazine a reality. Since our teachers aim to encourage in us leadership and ultimately a sense of self-confidence with which to face our future, we thank them for the guidance given in this compilation of the events of the school year. We thank everyone who has contributed to our Slogan. We are proud of the ardour everywhere present in our Branksome halls — we mean not only in team work in our gymnasium, but in the loyalty which exists between our students and staff. Equipped, we believe, as no other generation has yet been, we are living in an age that will be famous in history. This year all members of the British Empire and Commonwealth proudly saluted Sir Winston Churchill on his eightieth birthday. As Branksome has always considered herself a small unit within a vast empire, we, too, salute this eminent figure. What finer traits can the idealist attempt to emulate than those found in the great statesman of our day? — To our rising generation is given the opportunity of setting democratic examples of tolerance and understanding. Let us then, as girls of Branksome, meet our challenge, base it on knowledge, and accept it as a trust. Through the enrollment of Moulton students in our school, Branksome has added to its strength, forging, we hope, stronger bonds of friendship. We have learned that, despite different approaches, the goal of girlhood is to live amicably with one another. Let us go forth, whether to a higher form, a different school, or the work-a-day world, with a clearness of vision, an esteem for the opinion of others, discrimination, and an enlivened intellect. If you cannot lead, be wise and choose to follow a good leader. Upward, onward, forward, girls of 1955 — have pride in your school, yourself, your country, and finally in the world in which you are living.
