Editorial This year is a special one in the history of Branksome Hall as three very important things are happening. It is the seventieth anniversary of the school, Miss Sime is retiring, and we are welcoming a new principal jMiss Allison Roach. Seventy years ago Branksome was a small school, holding classes in the converted stable of a house on Bloor Street. The girls wore long skirts and middy blouses as their uniform and The S ou ' aM was a mere pamphlet of twenty or so pages. Now the school has expanded to comprise many buildings, including a modern wing of offices and class- ro oms; our uniform is more practical, reflecting the sense of tradition that is so much a part of our lives, and Tho Slog,in is a one hundred and sixty page book reflecting the many facets of the school. Many teachers and students have passed through the school in the course of seventy years and each one has contributed something in her own special way to its development, but the girls in the Graduating Class of 1974 will remember no one more vividly than they will Miss Sime. She has had a long and varied career at Branksome - beginning as a teacher, becoming the head of the French Department and then, in 1968, becoming the Principal. During Miss Sime ' s administration the school has developed in many ways, and one phase of its building programme included the completion of the Margaret Sime Wing. But even greater than any material development is the influence that Miss Sime has had over the girls who have been her students. She has always tried to know each girl individually, she has constantly supported student effort and initiative, and she has consistently reacted favourably to ideas based on fairness and honesty. Although it is hard to think of Branksome with a new Principal, I am sure that when Miss Roach comes to the school in September she will have the full support of the school. For the first time Branksome will have one of its own alumnae as Principal, a fact of which we should all be very proud. The Editors would like to express their thanks and appreciation to Miss Kenny and Miss Forsyth for all the help that they have given us this year. Gay
