I'm sure you can remove these things using browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.showSearch and browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.logowordmark.alwaysVisible.

WARNING from the moderator team: Changing Firefox preferences from the about:config page can sometimes break Firefox or cause strange behavior. You should only do this if you know what you're doing. Please read Firefox advanced customization and configuration options to learn more.

Instead of using the Customize ("pencil") icon on the bottom right corner of the New Tab page, you can open the Firefox Menu -> Settings option, select the Home panel on the left and go to the Firefox Home Content section, if that helps:

Many Thank you Alice see upload to view result

You're welcome.

I marked my reply as the solution, that you can use the Firefox menu -> Settings -> Home panel to remove unwanted Firefox Home Content settings from the New Tab page, such as Web Search.

P.S. For others reading: Removing Web Search from the Home settings panel may not remove the Firefox logo, since the layout of the New Tab page depends on the Firefox version and any experimental studies being run. More here:
