Page 4 THE BRANKSOME SLOGAN Dear Girls: A former Vice-Chancellor of Oxford, Dr. Livingston, once defined the educated woman as one who ' can entertain herself, entertain another person and entertain an idea. At first sight this definition is striking, but examination shows that it is limited in scope. It refers to the student ' s mental and social development, omitting the spiritual, which is the basis of all worthwhile development and the source of true happiness. It will be sixty years next September since Branksome Hall welcomed its first group of students. While Miss Scott, first Principal of the School, was concerned that her girls should be Madies and that they should learn to appreciate the rewards to be gained from exerting one ' s mind to its limit, she was especially anxious that no girl should leave without dedicating herself to Christian ideals. Her successor, Miss Read, was equally zealous tha t the Branksome graduate should be marked by fineness of character achieved through the pursuit of these ideals. On June 13th when the School flags are carried at the Junior graduation you will remember our four cornerstones. Truth, Honesty, Justice and Purity as the green, red, black and white flags lead the procession. At the Prize-Giving, on June 14th, some of you wsll receive prizes for having exemplified virtues which a Christian community acknowledges to be imporiant: Integrity, Loyalty, Service. Those of you who are graduating will find that these ideals will often be in conflict with the values of the modern world. May you be given strength to ' ' Keep Well the Road I ! urge those who are returning to ponder over these things and to resolve to be more faithful than before. A minor poetess, Molly Anderson Haley, has expressed my hope for you all as you leave for your holiday: Thy blessing, Lord, on all vacation days! For weary ones who seek the quiet ways. Fare forth beyond the thunder of the street. The marvel of Emmaus Road repeat; Thy comradeship so graciously bestow Their hearts shall burn within them as they go. Grant those who turn for healing to the sea tAay Find the faith that once by Galilee Flamed brighter than the glowing fire of coals. And when thou hast refreshed their hungry souls, Speak the old words again, beside the deep. Bid all who love thee. Master, feed thy sheep! Be thou with those who bide where mountains rise, Where yearning earth draws nearest to the skies! Give them the peace, the courage that they ask: New strength to face the waiting valley task, New light to lead through shrouding valley haze! Thy blessing, -prd, on all vacation days.
