To the Officers and Members of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge A.F. and A.M. of Canada, in the Province of Ontario.

My Brethren:

At the conclusion of my first year as your Grand Master I stand before you to give an accounting of the Stewardship placed in my hands one year ago. I have en- deavoured to visit with you, my Brethren, as many times as it has been physically possible and I sincerely thank you, one and all, for your warm friendliness and hospitality and beg your forgiveness for any errors I might have committed.

We are thrilled to welcome our guests from our Sister Jurisdictions, from the Grand Chapter of Royal Arch Masons of Canada, in the Province of Ontario, from the Supreme CouncU of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Canada, and from the Sovereign Great Priory of Canada. During my visits to our Sister Jurisdictions I have been most cordially received and extended the warmest fellowship and have made innumerable friendships which I will cherish in my heart for many years to come. It is my hope and sincere wish that our guests will be most happy with us and that their every need will be cheerfully met. We welcome them and only hope that they will return again and again to visit with us in the future.

We are again meeting in the Royal York Hotel and I wish to extend to the Metropolitan Toronto Past Masters' Association our sincere thanks and congratulations for the excellent arrangements made for our convenience and comfort. Their efforts, year after year, are deeply appreci- ated. I would like to pay particular attention to V. Wor. Bro. Burnie C. McClelland who, for the thirtieth year, is directing the parade of the members of Grand Lodge and their guests into the meeting. Our sincere thanks go to Bro. McClelland for his continued loyalty. Particular TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 39 appreciation is due R. Wor. Bro. Robert Strachan and R. Wor. Bro. Robert Truscott for their many years of work on our behalf during the meeting of Grand Lodge. I would also like to express, on your behalf, sincere thanks to M. Wor. Bro. J. A. Irvine, our Grand Secretary, and his staff for the great amount of work done on the arrangements for our meetings. Their efforts are deeply appreciated and I am certain that this 119th Communica- tion of Grand Lodge will be a most successful one. NECROLOGY GEORGE FREDERICK KINGSMILL

Rt. Wor. Bro. G. Fred Kingsmill passed to the Great Beyond at University Hospital, London, on December 16, 1973.

Bro. Kingsmill was initiated into Masonry in 1918 and was Worshipful Master of St. John's Lodge, No. 209a, in 1934. He was Grand Senior Warden in 1945-46 and during his lifetime he contributed a great deal to our Grand Jurisdiction and to Masonry in general.

Bro. Kingsmill was an Active Member of Supreme Council, A. & A.S.R., and had served as Deputy for On- tario for several years. He was a Past Potentate of Mocha Temple and was always active in the affairs of the Shrine and particularly for the Crippled Children.

His jovial and kindly nature will long be remembered by his friends.

GEORGE A. BRYANT

Rt. Wor. Bro. George A. Bryant, District Deputy Grand Master of Hamilton "B" District, passed away quickly on August 21, 1973.

Bro. Bryant was a Past Master of The Lodge of Strict Observance, No. 27, Hamilton, and had contributed tremendously to his District and to Masonry. His friends were greatly saddened to hear of his sudden death. 40 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

I immediately appointed Rt. Wor. Bro. S. A. Tinson to carry out the duties in Hamilton "B"' District for the balance of 1973-74. I recommend that Rt. Wor. Bro. Bryant be granted, posthumously, the rank of Past District Deputy Grand Master.

JOHN G. DODD

Our well known and loyal brother, John G. Dodd, was called to the Grand Lodge Above on December 27, 1973 after serving Masonry for many years. Bro. Dodd was Grand Junior Warden in 1949 and served on the Board of General Purposes from 1955 to 1959. He was always most willing to assist at any Masonic function and will be well remembered for his many acts of charity.

E. NEILL GREGORY

Rt. Wor. Bro. Gregory was initiated into Faithful Brethren Lodge, No. 77, in 1921 and affiliated with North Gate Lodge, No. 591, in 1944. He served as Wor. Master of Faithful Brethren Lodge in 1941 and also as Grand Senior Warden of our Grand Lodge in 1951. He served on the Board of General Purposes for 1955 and 1956. Bro. Gregory, who passed away on February 24, 1974, will long be remembered for his loyalty to our Fraternity.

DR. EVERON FLATH

Rt. Wor. Bro. Everon Flath, aged 96, who passed away on November 21, 1973, will long be remembered for his cheerfulness, wit and rituahstic abihty. He was District Deputy Grand Master of Wellington District in 1916. He was a member of the Board of General Purposes for several years and contributed so much to Masonry in this Grand Jurisdiction. He was always ready and willing to assist at any Masonic function and assisted at innumerable installations. He was over 60 years a Past Master and 57 years a Past District Deputy Grand Master. He was an honorary member of 9 Lodges and the brethren will always picture hkn present at the various Lodge functions. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 41

BRO. NORMAN WARRINER BYRNE, Q.C.

This outstanding Mason—initiated into St. George's Lodge, No. 15, St. Catharines, January 25, 1921 — affiliated with Acacia Lodge, No. 61, Hamilton, March 11, 1927—a Charter Member of Meridian Lodge, No. 687, Dundas, January 22, 1957—made magnificent contribu- tions to our Grand Lodge and to Masonry in general.

Bro. Byrne had for many years used his talents as a Barrister to assist Grand Lodge with respect to the legal aspects of Charters for Masonic Holding Corporations.

Bro. Byrne did all of the legal work incidental to re- search on, and drawing a Private Bill which was passed by the Legislature of Ontario, and forms the legal vehicle of The Masonic Foundation of Ontario, which is the official public benevolent outiet for this Grand Lodge.

He also did all of the legal work incidental to the in- corporation of Masonic Holdings, the vehicle of this Grand Lodge for the premises of its headquarters.

For many years Bro. Byrne had been the consultant of the Secretary of this Grand Lodge with respect to all corporation purposes of lodges and laid out a detailed- procedure plan to be followed.

Over many years, and for the above and other legal services rendered to this Grand Lodge, Bro. Byrne has refused any fees or remuneration.

He spent endless hours in securing the land on which our Grand Lodge Memorial Building in Hamilton is situ- ated through his close connection with the Tuckett Estate.

Our Brother, as recently as 1972, fashioned a lectern—beautifully finished, complete with light, which folds into a conveniently-carried package and which lec- tern was presented to the M.W. The Grand Master for the use of Grand Lodge. Several years ago Bro. Byrne de- signed and presented a beautiful Stained Glass Window to 42 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

the Ancient & Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry. One of its panels portrays Craft Masonry showing a candidate for admission kneeUng before the Altar and the Volume of the Sacred Law.

Those Brethren, who knew him, knew that Bro. Byrne was ready to lend his hand, his heart and his keen intellect to Craft Masonry, which played such an import- ant part in his life.

Bro. Byrne was made the recipient of the William Mercer Wilson Medal in November, 1971, recognition in part for his many services to the Craft. He passed to the Grand Lodge Above on November 19, 1973, and in his honour your Grand Master authorized a donation of One Hundred Dollars to The Masonic Foundation of Ontario. We salute a great man and a great Mason and are con- soled by the fact that he is now in the care of the Great Architect of the Universe.

APPOINTMENTS

At the Centennial Anniversary of Clementi Lodge, No. 313, and the District Reception of Peterborough Dist- rict on February 27th, 1974, I was pleased to appoint Wor. Bro. Percy A. Hall, a Past Master of Faithful Brethren Lodge, No. 77, as a Grand Steward.

Also on February 2nd, 1974, at the 60th Anniver- sary of Ionic Lodge, No. 526, I was happy to appoint Wor. Bro. Robert C. Taylor, a Past Master of Ionic Lodge, No. 526, as a Grand Steward.

I request from Grand Lodge approval of these ap- pointments and Past Rank for these brethren.

PAST RANK

(1) R.W. Bro. H. A. Hopkins was elected and installed as District Deputy Grand Master of Toronto District 7 and shortly afterwards was moved by his employers to the West Indies. Our Grand Jurisdiction thus lost TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 43

an outstanding and dedicated Mason and I recom- mend that he be granted the Rank of Past District Deputy Grand Master,

(2) R.W. Bro. J. D. Henderson was elected and installed as District Deputy Grand Master of London West District and shortly afterwards suffered a severe ill- ness from which he fortunately recovered. His physi- cian felt that he should not continue in office and thus he resigned. We concur with his decision and recommend that he be granted the Rank of Past District Deputy Grand Master.

(3) Following the illness of Rt. Wor. Bro. Henderson of London West District I appointed Rt. Wor. Bro. Charles G. Phipps as D.D.G.M. of London West District for the balance of the Masonic year. He has served Masonry and his District well and I recom- mend that he be granted the Rank of Past District Deputy Grand Master.

(4) Because of the inability of Rt. Wor. Bro. Harold Hopkins to continue as D.D.G.M. of Toronto District 7 because of being moved from our Grand Jurisdic- tion by his employers I appointed Rt. Wor. Bro. Matthew Campbell as D.D.G.M. to complete the Masonic year. He has served well and I recommend that he be granted the Rank of Past District Deputy Grand Master.

(5) When informed of the untimely death of Rt. Wor. Bro. George Bryant, D.D.G.M. of Hamilton "B" District I appointed Rt. Wor. Bro. Arthur Tinson as D.D.G.M. for the remainder of the year. He has dis- charged his duties in a very fine manner and I recom- mend that he be granted the rank of Past District Deputy Grand Master,

(a) Bro. Al Yetman of Orient Lodge, No. 339, was un- able, because of unforeseen circumstances, to serve 44 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

his full year as Worshipful Master and I recommend that he be granted the Rank of Past Master,

(b) Wor. Bro. Bruce Marshall was installed as Worshipful Master of Nipissing Lodge, No. 420, on June 11, 1973, and served that office diligently until January 1974 when he was transferred elsewhere by his employer. Wor. Bro. Marshall has made outstanding contributions to his lodge and I recommend he be granted the Rank of Past Master.

(c) Wor. Bro. Derrick Woodward, Worshipful Master of Hazeldean Lodge, No. 517, because of illness in his family, was unable to serve the full twelve months but under the circumstances has filled the office of Worshipful Master with distinction. I recommend he be granted past rank.

ANDOR GERO LODGE IJ.D.

The sincere and heartfelt thanks of our Grand Lodge is extended to M.W. Bro. Harry L. Martyn and M.W. Bro. William K. Bailey who gave so freely of their time to institute and guide the formation of this new Lodge in our Grand Jurisdiction. It has been formed almost entirely of Masons who were originally members of the now extinct Grand Lodge of Hungary. The members are very dedicated and loyal Masons and I know that all the Brethren of this Grand Jurisdiction join me in wishing this new Lodge every success and happiness.

VISITATIONS TO OTHER GRAND LODGES AND MASONIC BODIES

During the year your Grand Master, often accom- panied by the Grand Secretary, has visited many other Grand Lodges. At every visitation the reception was warm and friendly and one is assured of the genuine friendship and esteem held for your Grand Lodge. My thanks go to the Past Grand Masters who assisted me by visiting some of the Grand Lodges.

A list of the visitations will be found in Appendix "A". TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 45

May they enjoy good health as we are privileged to number them as our honoured Masonic brothers. With- out in any way taking from the other honours perhaps we might be permitted to say special congratulations to our brethren who have been awarded the William Mercer Wilson Medal. Extraordinary labours in ministering to their brethren have been called for in their cases. NORTH AMERICAN CONFERENCES OF GRAND MASTERS AND GRAND SECRETARIES These splendid meetings in Washington, D.C., were attended by the Grand Master, the Deputy Grand Master and the Grand Secretary.

TRIBUTE TO M.W. BRO. HARRY L. MARTYN

Few Canadian Masons are better known, both in Ontario and elsewhere, than M.W. Bro. Harry L. Martyn, Grand Master from 1957 to 1959. From 1959 until last year he served as Custodian of the Work. In each of those years, in addition to his other responsibihties, he gave liberally of his time and skill to instruct the District Deputy Grand Masters, from Kenora to Cornwall, in the proper discharge of their duties. In all, 580 D.D.G.M.s passed under his tutelage. And of course he held frequent Lodges of Instruction, which are almost legendary for their combination of ampHtude and good humour.

On March 28, 1974, the brethren of our province were privileged to demonstrate the love and respect in which they hold this great Mason. The occasion was a Testimonial Dinner, held in Toronto. The planning was im- peccable, the appointments lavish, and the programme superb. A total of 729 brethren were present, from the whole width and breadth of Ontario. As the culminating point of the proceedings, a cheque for $7500 was pre- sented to M.W. Bro. Martyn, in order to furnish and equip a room in his name at the Toronto East General Hospital of which he has been a Director for many years. A wonderful tribute to a wonderful man.

GRAND LODGE PUBLICATIONS

The enthusiastic reception of the book "Beyond the Pillars" far overshadowed the fondest hopes of the Com- mittee on the Publication. Almost 20,000 copies have been sold and everyone who has purchased the book appears to be overjoyed with the format and contents. The hope is that there will be another edition.

The preliminary sales of the book "The First Grand Master" are very encouraging and I am sure that anyone who purchases and reads this fine book will be well repaid for the time spent in perusing it. Again it is the hope of your Grand Master that everyone will at least read this well-written book. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 51

For the past several years V. Wor. Bro. J. Lawrence Runnalls has dihgently edited "The Bulletin" and has done a wonderful job. I feel certain that he will receive the well earned thanks of every member of our Grand Lodge for his loyalty and dedication to the furtherance of Free- masonry in our Grand Jurisdiction. Your Grand Master wishes to express his smcere thanks to Bro. Runnalls for the excellence of the "Bulletin" and for his warm friend- ship and advice.

TUTORIAL ASSISTANCE FOR CANDIDATES AND MASTER MASONS

For the past several years Worshipful Masters have been encouraged to engage Master Masons in assisting in conferring degrees. Learning the Work by word of mouth can be very time consuming and arduous. In order that reliable aid be made available we propose to allow Master Masons who have passed the necessary satisfactory exam- ination in open Lodge to purchase copy of the Work through their Lodge Secretary.

The Question-answer examination cards have proven very welcome aids by the mentors or tutors of candidates. This instruction assistance will be expanded through the provision of copy of the Work on loan for each degree under the direction of the Instruction Committee. In addi- tion the booklets for the petitioner and the candidate are being revised and greatly expanded.

GRAND MASTER'S BANQUET

Again this year sincere thanks is extended to Rt. Wor. Bro. Colin MacKenzie for the very fine arrangements for our annual banquet. Your Grand Master and, I am sure, every Mason present extends sincere thanks and apprecia- tion to Bro. MacKenzie for his efforts put forth for our pleasure and satisfaction. This year will see 2,000 Brethren sitting down to break bread together and listen to our celebrated speaker. Most Wor. Bro. Forrest D. Haggard, Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Kansas. 52 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

In conclusion may I again say what a thrill it was to have served you during the past year; what a tremendous number of friendships 1 have made and what an impression the enthusiasm of my brethren has made on me. The warmth and dignity with which I have been received dis- plays, beyond a doubt, the esteem in which the office of Grand Master is held. 1 wish to congratulate the Secre- taries of the Lodges for the very fine notices and news- letters sent out this past year. I will look back on this past year with the fondest of memories and also an increased desire to serve this great Fraternity of Freemasonry. May I wish you all a safe and pleasant summer hohday and hope that in the fall you will return to your Lodges full of enthusiasm and desire to increase your knowledge of Masonry.

Sincerely and fraternally,

GEO. E. TURNER, Grand Master.

APPOINTMENT OF COMMITTEE ON THE GRAND MASTER'S ADDRESS

At the conclusion of the Address it was moved by M.W. Bro. H. L. Martyn, seconded by M.W. Bro. W. L. Wright and carried: That a committee, composed of all the Past Grand Masters present, consider and report to Grand Lodge on the Grand Master's Address. The motion was put by the Deputy Grand Master. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 55 REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON DECEASED BRETHREN

This Report was presented by R.W. Bro, M. J. Damp, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Damp, it was received and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

It is with a deep sense of solemnity that we, the Committee on Deceased Brethren, introduce this report into the deliberations of this Communication to pay tribute to those of our Brethren whom fate has dictated their passing from our midst.

The sorrow for the dead is the only sorrow from which we refuse to be divorced. Every other wound we seek to heal, every other affliction to forget; but this wound we consider it a duty to keep open; this affliction we cherish and brood over in solitude.

While praising what is lost makes the remembrance dear, every Brother whose memory we recall was the architect of his own fortune, builded well upon a sound philosophy of life. Nor, in truth, would the honour of illustrious men continue after death, if their own spirits did not make us preserve a longer remembrance of them. They shall grow not old. As we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them. Nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun. And in the morning We will remember them.

Man, in all his creative power, foretells afar, the courses of the stars, the very hour he knows when they shall darken or glow bright; yet does the eclipse of sorrow and of death come unfore- warned. Thou art gone to the grave. But we will not deplore thee, Though sorrows and darkness Encompass the tomb. During the past year our losses among the ranks of elected and appointed Grand Lodge Officers have been unbearably heavy and as we peruse the Tablet Pages, let us also recall our debt to the many Brethren who will not be mentioned heretofore, but who also served well in their own sphere.

It has been my privilege to have been the Chairman of your Committee on Deceased Brethren and I acknowledge the kindly 56 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

assistance afforded by my 10 associates. They have performed a yoeman task in keeping a finger on the pulse of respect throughout the jurisdiction.

We are deeply indebted to the District Deputy Grand Masters for the manner in which they transmitted the pertinent information and to the Grand Secretary and his staff for their compilation of same.

We recognize the splendid contribution the various Masonic Service Guilds have rendered to the Order, particularly their assistance and guidance to those from out-of-town who have experienced bewilderment in what may have appeared to be a crisis.

It should not be starthng that your committee is concerned over a few matters and would welcome your comments on its observations and suggestions. For instance, the failure of many lodges to pay proper respect to a deceased member. What better vehicle is there beside the media to eulogize and publicize the demise of a brother than the Lodge Summons. We strongly urge all Masters to consider foregoing social and district announcements in the Summons in favour of a well documented and meaningful obituary of a deceased brother as the occasion arises and that a copy be forwarded to the family of the decedent.

Likewise, one might hope for a degree of improvement in the manner in which the Memorial Service is conducted in many instances. Bearing in mind that the service is usually conducted in the presence of the deceased brother's family, it is not un- reasonable to expect that it would be performed in a manner of perfection that we associate with the Clergy. To this end, we take the liberty to suggest to each Master that he select a group of 6 brethren possessed of such talents as are indicative of a pleasing and impressive delivery to conduct the entire ceremony in each case. Your committee need not emphasize the solemnity of such occasions and the state of mourning we participate in, and in order to dispell the remotest tendency to create an air of pageantry, it suggests you consider the possibility of undress regalia and the absence of all jewels as the proper dress for such activities.

The climate of public opinion on any topic may be subject to a gradual change but occasionally it can be affected by a hearty shove in the direction of enlightenment, administered by certain men.

Not too many of us can accomplish significant change by this means, for it calls for conviction, persuasiveness and forceful leadership; but these are qualities possessed by and associated with many of the departed Brethren we pay sincere tribute to today.

Our Brethren were able to blend this with a warmth of personality and sense of brotherhood, and from personal exposure to a goodly number of them, always a robust sense of humor, all of which attests to their intellectual capacity and their impact on others. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 57

There can be little doubt in our minds that these distinguished Brethren whose names are now inscribed on our Honour Roll in perpetuity have left our fraternity in much better order than they found it and we are greatly in their debt. Their renown has been purchased, not by deeds of violence and blood, but by the diligent dispensation of pleasure and they would remind us that the path of sorrow leads to the land where sorrow is unknown.

As we recall the names of these Brethren, let us thank the Most High for the privilege of having known them, and let us remember that each has left his mark for good though our finite minds recall only the great. "I took a day to search for God, and found him not. "But as I trod the rocky ledge, through woods untamed, just where one scarlet lily flamed — I saw His footprints in the sod. "Then suddenly, all aware, far off in the deep shadows where a solitary thrush sang through the holy twilight hush, I heard His voice upon the air — God's voice".

These, our departed Brethren, may not have all been famous, but they were our Brethren, and to those who profess a belief in the Fatherhood of God, they were the Sons of God. They all died in Faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off.

In loving memory and affection of all our deceased Brethren, we now name those who served as Grand Lodge Officers:

GRAND CHAPLAIN:

"He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in Him will I trust". (Ps. 91).

"The Lord is your keeper; . . . The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in from this time forth and for evermore". (Ps. 121).

Prayer of Invocation

Eternal God, our heavenly Father, who lovest us with an everlasting love and canst turn the shadow of death unto the light of a new day; help us now to wait upon thee with reverence, that, as we hear the words from the Volume of the Sacred Law, we may find the peace of thy presence. Amen.

Psalm 23 (Reading responsively)

1. The'Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

2. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; he leadeth me beside the still waters.

3. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of right- eousness for his name's sake.

4. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death. I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

5. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

6. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

Prayer of Thanksgiving and Intercession:

O Lord, support us all the day long of this troublous life, until the shadows lengthen and the evening comes, and the busy world is hushed, and the fever of life is over, and our work is done. Then ,of thy tender mercy grant us a safe lodging and a holy rest, and peace at the last.

And now unto thee, our God and supreme architect of the universe, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

AUDITOR S REPORT

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada, in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

I have examined the statement of resources of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario as at April 30, 1974 and statements of receipts and disbursements of the General Fund and the combined Memorial and Semi-Centennial Fund for the year then ended. My examination included a general review of the accounting procedures and such tests of the accounting records of your Grand Treasurer and Grand Secretary and other supporting evidence as I considered necessary in the circumstances.

The securities of the General, Memorial and Semi- Centennial Funds as set out in the respective schedules accompanying the Grand Treasurer's Report are held and certified to under date of June 20, 1974 by the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce.

In my opinion, these financial statements present fairly the financial position on a cash basis of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario as at April 30, 1974 and the receipts and disbursements for the year then ended in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis con- sistent with that of the preceding year.

Yours fraternally, A. W. PARISH, F.C.A. :

TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 71 GRAND TREASURER'S REPORT

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren

I present the Annual Report of the Grand Treasurer for the fiscal year ending April 30, 1974. The report con- tains a statement of receipts and disbursements of the General Fund, the Memorial Fund and the Life Members Commutation Fund with the usual particulars of invest- ments and reserves.

Annual per capita dues including the fuU year's in- crease authorized in 1972 have produced a substantial in- crease in receipts notwithstanding some reduction in the assessable membership. Investment income for the year was also materially improved. Profit on Grand Lodge pub- lications, particularly the book "Beyond the Pillars", has provided a surplus which should assist in financing future official pubUcations. Disbursements which include greater printing expense and reduced requirements for benevo- lence, while in excess of the year's operating budget, have been contained within our income and leave us with a moderate surplus overall.

Face value of long-and-short-term investments con- tinues to increase to a limited extent but the market value of our securities over which we have no control has gone down with the bond market at the close of our year. Our bonds will, of course, realize their full face value at maturity. For the present new investments will produce a higher rate of return than we have been receiving on those which have recently matured.

It will be understood that new commuted life mem- berships according to our present practice provide an ade- quate amount of annual income to the General Fund. Lodges are warned that similar precautions should be 72 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION adopted in their own accounts to offset reduced income from those who receive Hfe memberships. Reserves should be maintained for that purpose at an adequate actuarial level.

The Grand Treasurer is grateful for the unfaihng co- operation of the Grand Secretary, the Supervisor of Ben- evolence, the detailed assistance received from the Grand Lodge office and the continued guidance of the Auditor of Grand Lodge whenever it has been required. The friend- ship and counsel of the Chairman of Audit and Finance and of others of Grand Lodge have made my official duties a source of pleasure and satisfaction.

The usual statements, summaries and schedules of the report are given in the pages following.

Respectfully and fraternally submitted,

M. CLEEVE HOOPER, Grand Treasurer. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 73

Bro. Robert Strachan, Chairman of the Committee of Scrutineers, to supervise and count the vote at the election of Grand Lodge officers, with power to name the members of the Committee. 90 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION COMMnTEE ON CREDENTIALS The Grand Master appointed R. Wor. Bro. Robert Truscott Chairman of the Committee on Credentials with power to select other members of the committee. REPORTS OF THE DISTRICT DEPUTY GRAND MASTERS The Reports of the 41 District Deputy Grand Masters were presented by the Grand Secretary and on motion by the Deputy Grand Master seconded by the Grand Secretary, they were received and referred to the Board of General Purposes.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON FRATERNAL RELATIONS This Report was presented by M. Wor. Bro. H. L. Martyn, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by M. Wor. Bro. Martyn, it was received and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

Your Committee on Fraternal Relations has considered a request for recognition from the Grand Lodge of Luxembourg. This is one of the smaller Grand Lodges in the world. They formed in the year 1858. The United Grand Lodge of England extended recognition to them in 1969. Your Committee recommends that we extend Fraternal recognition to the Grand Lodge of Luxembourg. Respectfully and fraternally submitted, HARRY L. MARTYN, Chairman. REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE

M.W. Bro. B. B. Foster presented this Report and read the Foreword to the Reviews. The Deputy Grand Master then moved, seconded by M.W. Bro. B. B. Foster, that the Report be received and adopted; Carried. TORONTO, ONTARIO. 1974 91 REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON CONSTITUTION AND LAWS

This report was presented by M.W. Bro. H. L. Martyn, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by M.W. Bro. Martyn, it was received and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

The Committee on Constitution and Laws begs leave to report as follows:

PART I M. Wor. Bro. E. G. Dixon has given Notice of Motion to amend the Constitution as follows:

(a) That Section 9 be deleted and the following substituted therefor:

"Section 9. The committee shall deliver to each of such brethren the ballot papers to which he is entitled, and also a copy of all notices of motion to be brought before Grand Lodge. Each lodge shall be entitled to three votes. If the Master and Wardens be present, each shall be entitled to one vote. If any one of them be absent his vote shall be given to the senior officer present. Each Past Master shall be entitled to one vote."

(b) That Section 45 be amended by deleting the word "May" and substituting therefor the word "April".

(c) That Section 84, regarding the duties of the Grand Secretary, be amended by deleting paragraph seven thereof and substitut- ing therefor the following paragraph:

"He shall, on or before the fifteenth day of April in each year, send to each lodge no fewer than six copies of all notices of motion, and to every officer and member of the Board ol General Purposes of Grand Lodge one copy thereof." No Constitutional objection.

PART II

1. In the Waterloo District an extensive study was made of the question of concurrent jurisdiction for the entire District. R.Wor. Brother Carse reports that when a vote was taken in the fourteen lodges in the District, thirteen lodges voted to ask Grand Lodge to establish District wide concurrent jurisdiction. 92 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

One lodge voted in the negative. The result of this vote was reported to a meeting of the Past Masters' and Wardens' Asso- ciation at their meeting held on May 29, 1974. All fourteen lodges of the District were represented at this meeting on May 29, 1974. At this meeting of the Past Masters & Wardens a motion was proposed and passed unanimously: "that Waterloo be given District Concurrent Jurisdiction at such time as may be expedient." In view of the information submitted above, your Committee recommends as follows:

(a) That concurrent jurisdiction be established among the fourteen lodges comprising the Waterloo District.

(b) That this concurrent jurisdiction shall become effective as of July, 1974 and shall be effective for a period of three years. At the end of the three year period this committee shall report on it further to Grand Lodge.

2. A similar study on the question of concurrent jurisdiction on a District wide basis was made in the Ontario District. This District already contains areas where more than one lodge serves the Masonic needs of a municipality. In very recent times a new municipal area was created and it gave an automatic con- current jurisdiction to three Masonic Lodges. At least one other municipal area is in the planning stages and if formed it would bring an automatic concurrent juridiction to at least three more lodges. Each lodge in the District voted a prefer- ence for one of three suggestions re jurisdiction:

1. Should we remain as of the present. 2. Should we have District wide concurrent jurisdiction.

3. Should we have province wide jurisdiction.

R. Wor. Bro. Alex Hendry reports that three lodges favoured remaining as of now. Eleven lodges voted that they would favour District wide concurrent jurisdiction. One lodge voted that they would favour province wide concurrent jurisdiction. The D.D.G.M. further states that two of the lodges voting negatively were two of the three who automatically went into a concurrent jurisdiction area when the new Municipal Area of Newcastle was formed on January 1, 1974. In view of the information furnished above and the fact that 80% of the lodges in the district would favour a trial of District wide con- current jurisdiction, your committee recommends as follows:

(a) That concurrent jurisdiction be established among the fifteen lodges comprising the Ontario District.

(b) That this concurrent jurisdiction shall become effective as of July, 1974 and shall remain in effect for a period of three years. At the end of the three year period this Com- mittee shall report on it further to Grand Lodge. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 93 REPORT OF THE MASONIC FOUNDATION OF ONTARIO

R. Wot. Bro. A. C. Ashforth presented the following report. On motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R. Wor. Bro. Ashforth, it was received and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

The Masonic Foundation of Ontario was founded in 1964 and its purpose, as defined in the Letters of Incorporation, is "To receive, maintain, manage, control and use donations exclusively for charitable purposes within Ontario." I am pleased to report these guidelines are adequate for all purposes and the results achieved so far may be considered reasonably satisfactory. Pro- gress, whilst modest, has been steady but it is noticeable that greater participation by Constituent Lodges and individuals, is now taking place as the aims and objectives of The Foundation are becoming better known. Since inception the principal activity has been to make non-repayable awards to worthy university stu- dents who find themselves, through no fault of their own, in financial difficulties and unable to continue their university career without financial help. Some students do not always meet govern- ment qualifications, and others, because of emergency needs, must end their university careers unless financial assistance is received quickly and that is when The Foundation comes to their aid. Since inception, 360 students have been helped to the extent of $84,040, which is a creditable showing. It has been noticed there is a growing need to assist students who desire to attend university for the first time, or of those who have had one or two years at a university but are unable to finish a course because of lack of funds. The Foundation originally, and still tries to, confine its awards to stu- dents in their final year, however exceptions on few occasions have been made to meet some of the latter types. In addition to students' interests, The Foundation Directors have felt some sup- port should be directed toward the area of medical research. In this connection annual contributions have been made to the Ontario Division of the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada for the pur- pose of research in this important field. Last year the sum of $1,400 was so donated. As a special tribute to one of our esteemed Past Grand Masters, and to help a very worthy cause, a contribu- tion of $500 was made to the Toronto East General and Ortho- paedic Hospital Building Fund, in honour of M.W. Bro, Harry L. Martyn.

During the past few years The Foundation has endeavoured to bring its activities and purposes to the attention of all members of the Craft and we are encouraged by the results. The Grand 94 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

Master and many District Grand Masters, as well as Secretaries, and others, have helped publicize the work of The Foundation, for which grateful thanks are extended. The Board of Directors is deeply appreciative of donations received from individuals, 95 in number, amounting to $4,583. Many Lodges, as well as individuals, are now sending memorial gifts to The Foundation in memory of departed Brethren and last year 49 Lodges and 27 individuals contributed a total of $1,673. These thoughtful Memorial Gifts are lasting and are much appreciated. During recent months appro- priate forms have been placed in every funeral home in this Province and it is anticipated greater use will be made of this means of remembrance in future.

Contributions, other than Memorial Gifts, were received from the following Lodges and Masonic Associations during the yeai for which grateful thanks are extended.

A repeat Annual Contribution from Zetland Lodge No. 326, Toronto, $250.

An installation gift from Maple Leaf Lodge No. 600, Missis- sauga, $25.

A repeat donation from Toronto District Masonic Bonspiel, $30.

A good wishes gift from Centennial Lodge No. 684, London. Ontario, $50.

A $1 gift for every year of its 113 years of existence in memory of all Past Masters from the Past Masters' Assoc, Grand River Lodge No. 151, Kitchener, Ontario, $113.

As in the past a number of donations were received from Lodges and other Masonic Bodies, in lieu of gifts, or Honoraria, to Present and Past Grand Lodge Members for addresses given, or other assistance rendered. Such contributions are very welcome and are deeply appreciated.

We acknowledge with gratitude a bequest of $1,000 from the Estate of the late V.W. Bro. Matthew H. Bums. Such gifts provide a lasting remembrance and a source of encouragement to students, vi ho will benefit from the resulting income for years to come. It is well to remind all members that bequests to The Foundation are an allowable item for succession duty purposes.

Referring now to the Balance Sheet of The Foundation, total assets at the end of the fiscal year April 30th, amounted to $196,750.10 an increase of $6,797.01 over the corresponding period a year ago. Included in the assets are bonds having a cost value of $192,258.75 and a market value of $156,295. The differential between cost value and market value is $35,963.75 which com- pares with a differential of $20,625 a year ago. As bonds are normally held until maturity, no loss is contemplated. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 95

Total income for the year amounted to $18,287.40 of which $11,367.40 was received from investments. Income was up $406.19 from the preceding year.

Turning to the expenditure side of the Balance Sheet, dis- bursements amounted to $1,090.39, an increase of $748.44. The cost of printing accounted for $608.03 of the increase, and postage $138.22.

The number of awards granted this year was 31 for a total of $8,500. The students came from 15 universities and colleges and indicates our coverage is quite widespread. Many of the awards were presented by District Deputy Grand Masters and the Board of Directors wishes to extend its thanks to them for this much appreciated participation. Many letters of appreciation have been received from recipients but time does not permit to do more than read a few excerpts from some of them.

D.C. — Victoria College, Toronto,

"I hope that in the future I will be in a position to give a student the encouragement and drive that you and your Founda- tion have given to me. Thank you and best wishes."

H. W- Buchner — Dean of Divinity, Trinity College, Toronto.

"Thank you very much for your letter and kind gift of $400 to assist C.P.O. in his financial problems in his Divinity Course. I am very grateful to you and The Foundation for assistance given this year to our students."

B.S. — University of Western Ontario, London.

"It (the award) was greatly appreciated and helped over some very difficult times. I hope you will be able to continue in your work helping university students."

W.D. & R. — Knox College, Toronto.

"We are indeed grateful for this help at this time. As you may know, our roots are here in Ontario — nonetheless we are looking forward to serving the church in Western Canada. Again many thanks and God's blessing in the months and years ahead."

J.A.L. — Carleton University, Ottawa.

"Concern for my situation has been appreciated. Without this interest in students with similar situations many of us could not have completed our year. Removal of some of the financial burden has allowed me, and I expect other students to devote their time to their studies." 96 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

J.V. — McMaster University (Divinity) Hamilton.

"At present I am serving as Minister of First Himgarian Baptist Church in Toronto and I am taking a Divinity Course to improve my knowledge, so that I may be of greater use to Hun- garian Christians in Canada.

I appreciate your gift more than I can say."

J.R, — McMaster University (Divinity) Hamilton.

"Thank you for your obvious concern for Christian education. As I take these studies this summer, I will endeavour to do my best so that you will feel that your contribution was valuable. Thank you."

G.R.B. — Trinity College, Toronto.

"I feel free from the concern of financial matters. Unlike many of my fellow students, I come from a rural parish unable to provide me with assistance. As you know O.S.A.P. does not pro- vide significant funds to Divinity Students. Your gift therefore was particularly useful to me. Thank you so much."

In conclusion may I say how much the Board of Directors and myself appreciate the excellent services rendered by V.W. Bro. Hugh Hastie who has fulfilled the duties of Secretary- Treasurer with a high degree of efficiency. These duties have mul- tiplied considerably during the past few years and we are fortunate in having him accept them so cheerfully. Thanks are also extended to R.W. Bro. James Talman for his careful processing of the many applications for awards. Thanks also to M.W. Bro. Cleeve Hooper, our Vice-President, for his wise counsel and great help throughout the year. All members of the Board have shown keen interest in the affairs of The Foundation and my sincere thanks are extended to each and every one of them.

Respectfully and fraternally submitted,

A. C. ASHFORTH. President

REPORT OF THE SPECIAL COMMITTEE ON PROVINCIAL ASSESSMENTS OF MASONIC TEMPLES OR HALLS

The report was presented by R.W. Bro. F. M. Cass, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Cass, it was received and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 97

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

In view of the re-assessment of one lodge building apparently without any relation to its market value as a "special purpose" building made by the Regional Assessor during the past year, the Committee respectfully draws to the attention of all Worshipful Masters and Officers of Lodges and officers of Masonic Temple Holdings Corporations, the reports of Grand Lodge 1973 at pages 122 and 123 and the further detailed information referred to in the 1972 Proceedings page 76 and the 1971 Proceedings Page 91 of Grand Lodge.

While the Committee has continued its liaison with the Assessment Branch of the Department of Revenue and has been repeatedly reassured by the Director that the assessment of Lodge Rooms, Masonic Temples and similar buildings would be on the basis of market value for "special purpose" buildings, it would appear that many assessors are not aware of the real meaning of the direction issued by the Director and consequently continue to assess these buildings by their normal formula.

It is, therefore, most important, should an assessment of the Masonic Lodge Room or Temple, which appears to be out of line, be received that the appropriate appeal procedures be instituted forthwith and that the Grand Secretary be notified immediately.

Be assured that your Committee will continue to press for a more generous and equitable consideration based on "fair market value".

All of which is respectfully and fraternally submitted,

F. M. CASS, Chairman.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON BENEVOLENCE

R.W. Bro. R. E. Davies presented this report and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W.

Bro. Davies, it was received and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

It is my privilege to present on behalf of The Grand Lodge Committee on Benevolence the report for the year 1973-74. 98 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

This Committee held its regular meeting at The Grand Lodge Office in the City of Hamilton on June 14th and 15th, 1974. A large percentage of the Members, including The Grand Master and our former Chairman, The Deputy Grand Master, were in attendance.

During the course of our deliberations, time was taken to enjoy a coffee break sponsored by The Hamilton Past Masters' Association and upon completion of our meetings, a luncheon with The Grand Master at The Scottish Rite Club. These kindnesses were deeply appreciated and the members of this Committee extend their sincere thanks to the responsible parties!

The fourth annual report of The Supervisor of Benevolence, Very Worshipful Brother James C. Guy, was received and adopted. Once again it was evident our Supervisor has discharged his duties efficiently, yet in the true spirit of Masonry, Very Worshipful Brother Guy, has extended his service far beyond the routine demands of his office. During the fall he held District Meetings across the southern portion of our province for the benefit of the District Chairman of Benevolence together with the District Deputy Grand Masters and other interested Brethren. His wise guidance and counsel have been freely given to those whose prob- lems indicated a need for special consideration.

May we extend to him our appreciation for a job well done and let us hope that he will continue for many years in this great work of our Grand Lodge!

A brief policy meeting was held prior to the consideration of the applications for assistance. This seemed to serve a dual pur- pose for not only did it familiarize the new Committee members with the task at hand but it also permitted the development by discussion of several thoughts that hopefully might aid the func- tioning of this Committee in the future.

One Hundred and twenty-three applications, nine of which were new, were given careful consideration. Unfortunately several expected applications had not arrived and some that did arrive were lacking in detail.

Your Committee would urge a closer attention on the part of the Secretaries to the matter of notifying the Supervisor if for any reason a Grand Lodge grant is no longer required. In this connection also your Committee desires to call attention to the necessity of including in the applications for Grand Lodge assist- ance the most complete information wtih respect to each in- dividual case. Many applications are received which contain so few details that The Committee is almost completely in the dark as regards the necessities of the applicant. Under such circum- stances we are unable to form an adequate picture of the needs and, as a result, a good deal of unnecessary time is lost and hard- ship may ensue, both of which are the result of the inadequacy of the original information sent to us. TORONTO. ONTARIO, 1974 99

Many Lodges are evidencing by the generosity of their assist- ance their appreciation of the duty and privilege of exercising those great Masonic virtues—benevolence and charity. It should per- haps be emphasized that the best recommendation a Lodge can bring to bear in regard to any application is the fact that the Lodge itself has dealt generously with the case.

The following bequests and donations are gratefully acknow- ledged:

Estate of Stephen F. Hutchinson $4,834.14 Memorial Thomas Roberts 12.00 H. S. McCann 20.00 T. G. McNeil 30.00 D. McLauren 10.00 Bro. Brander 12.00 R. R. Simpson 5.00 Frank Smelser 15.00 Stephen F. Hutchinson, Lawn Bowling Association 78.00

A Christmas card was again sent to each of our recipients signed by The Grand Master, Most Worshipful Brother Geo. E. Turner, and myself as Chairman of Benevolence, and accompanied by a crisp new $5.00 bill. This small gesture was begun by my predecessor, Rt. Wor. Bro. Eric W. Nancekivell, who served this Committee so faithfully as its Chairman for the preceding eight years. I am happy to report that this seemingly insignificant little gesture has provoked a torrent of replies expressive of the genuine thanks of the recipients together with their great appreciation of the fact that someone cared enough to personally remember them. Perhaps a lesson could be taken by many of us from this!

The work done by the Local Boards of Relief in many of our larger centres is gratefully acknowledged and sincerely appreciated.

For many years we have been aided in benevolent matters by other jurisdictions, particularly in the United States, Great Britain and our Canadian Grand Lodges. May I record our appreciation for what has been done by them to take care of our Brethren and their dependents located outside of The Province of Ontario.

Your Committee further recommends the renewal of the membership in The Masonic Relief Association of The United States and Canada.

As a Committee, we recognize the assistance given by trie District Deputy Grand Masters in their respective districts. We thank them for the interest they have shown and especially for their selection of outstanding Masons to serve as District Chair- men of Benevolence. The District Chairmen have again fulfilled their duties satisfactorily and in most cases have turned in very 100 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION valuable reports. Again we strongly urge the newly elected District Deputy Grand Masters to continue the appointment of the District Chairmen of Benevolence who have already served a year or more in office, as it is felt this continuity is providing the necessary experience to insure maximum efficiency in that office. Your Committee thanks the Grand Secretary and his staff for their assistance given so freely during the year and for supplying the pertinent information required in this report.

As you may recall, at the last communication of Grand Lodge, an amount of $60,000.00 was requested to be made avail- able for Benevolent work during the coming year. A like amount is again requested this year!

The statistical summary of the disbursement of the funds last year reads as follows:

Grants paid (142) $55,425.00 Interim grants (10) 2,200.00 Christmas gratuity 710.00 Emergency grants 295.00

$58,630.00 Less cancellations 975.00 Less refunds 531.70

$57,123.30

In view of the fact that the figures now submitted indicate that Grand Lodge expenditures on Benevolence show a reduction both in monies spent as well as in the total number of recipients, we believe that the time is opportune to state that this Grand Lodge has never curtailed the expenditures of The Committee of Benevolence nor has it suggested that there should be a reduction in our estimates. This should be emphasized so that all may readily understand that the reduction in Grand Lodge Benevolent Expenditures has not been at the expense of those who are "in our care and keeping".

Good and sufficient reasons for the reduction in our Bene- volent spending can be directly attributed to the increase in social assistance available to our residents from the Provincial and Federal Governments. This however does not absolve us as Masons of our personal responsibility to our less fortunate Brethren or their dependents.

In this confused and busy world in which we live, we must recognize that each of us has a personal responsibility to those around us that cannot be discharged merely by a cash donation. Much can be done with our hands to make life more livable for TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 101

the less fortunate but there is far more we can do with our hearts to relieve the deeper pain of loneliness and despair in the hearts of the many elderly people in every community.

Your Committee would suggest that each Lodge have set up some kind of programme to use the talents of its members in worthwhile charity and service in its community, find something for its members to do and accomplish something that they can be proud of and the community in turn would truly be proud to have a Masonic Lodge in its midst. If the "side-benchers" complain—as they sometimes do—that there is nothing for them to do in Masonry, here is a field of limitless opportunity awaiting their efforts and a work whose reward will be found in bringing real happiness to lonely sick beds, to widows left without a guiding hand, and to hundreds of fatherless children.

We who are charged with the responsibility of administering your Grand Lodge Benevolent Fund earnestly desire to speed the day when the aged, the sick, the destitute, the widow and the orphan will find in Masonry not only the almoner with a generous purse but also a warm-hearted, sympathetic and personal touch without which our Benevolence is but a mechanically soulless thing. It is in the fostering of this personal side of Benevolence that our greatest challenge lies and to this development we solicit the earnest attention of all Brethren.

I'd like to think when life is done That I had filled a needed post, That here and there I'd paid my fare With more than idle talk and boast; That I had taken gifts divine, The breath of life and manhood fine And tried to use them now and then In service for my fellowmen.

Respectfully and fraternally submitted,

R. E. DAVIES, Chairman.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON MASONIC EDUCATION

This report was presented by R.W. Bro. N. R. Richards, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Richards, it was received and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. 102 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

Once again it is my privilege to present a report on behalf of the Committee on Masonic Education.

The report is presented in three parts.

( 1 ) The work of the Committee. (2) Summary of replies from the District Deputy Grand Masters.

( 3 ) Trends and Suggestions,

(1) The Work of the Committee Following the 1973 Annual Communication of Grand Lodge each District Deputy Grand Master was requested to name a Super- visor of Masonic Education for his district. I acknowledge the ready response to this request.

In a letter to the District Deputy Grand Masters, forwarded in August, the Committee on Masonic Education suggested that the District Supervisor of Masonic Education meet the supervisors at the lodge level to plan a program of Masonic Education for the year ahead. In particular it was suggested that the book Beyond the Pillars, the History of Grand Lodge, the 1973 Preliminary Proceedings and the 1973 Fraternal Reviews be used as back- ground material for lodge programs.

A syllabus was prepared outlining suggested topics for dis- cussion with particular attention to the reference book "Beyond the Pillars". Three copies of the syllabus and three copies of the address dehvered by M.W. Bro. Mervyn J. Woods at the Grand Master's Banquet were forwarded to each lodge secretary in the Grand Jurisdiction. A communication was forwarded from the Grand Master to each lodge secretary with instructions that it be read in open lodge. The letter contained the following:

"Dear Bro. Secretary:

Attached is a syllabus on Masonic Education prepared by the Committee on Masonic Education under the chairmanship of R.W. Bro. N, R. Richards.

You will note that R.W. Bro. Richards suggests our new pubHcation Beyond the Pillars, A History of Grand Lodge, and the Fraternal Reviews be used in your Masonic Education program in the lodge. I concur with this recommendation.

I encourage each lodge to offer programs in Masonic Education that will further and strengthen an understanding of the teachings and philosophy of Masonry.

Fraternally and Sincerely, GEORGE E. TURNER, Grand Master." TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 103

I reproduce the Grand Master's communication to the lodge secretaries in this report for two reasons. The positive support of the Grand Master in encouraging activity in Masonic Education at the lodge level is a source of great inspiration to this Committee of Grand Lodge. The Committee chose to emphasize the use of reference materials recommended in the syllabus in the knowledge that they were available to all lodges. Because of this decision the committee did not prepare and circulate additional material during the year. The committee reasoned that inasmuch as only a small fraction of our membership has the opportunity to attend our annual communication it was appropriate to suggest to lodges that those who were not fortunate to be in attendance at Toronto should become acquainted with our Grand Master's address, M.W. Bro. Woods' address and other interesting features of the Annual Com- munication.

In May a questionnaire was circulated to each District Deputy Grand Master and the second part of this report is prepared from the replies received.

(2) Summary of Replies from the District Deputy Grand Masters

Almost two thirds of the districts are following the practice of establishing a Committee on Masonic Education with the Supervisor as Chairman. Only one third of the districts re- appointed the supervisor that had served previously. Over half the supervisors attempted to hold a district meeting and meet with a representative from each of the lodges. Over seventy per cent of the districts held a district wide meeting. There was not significant co-ordination between the use of the material circulated by the Committee on Masonic Education and the work of the District Supervisor. In answer to the question "In your view what educa- tional topics are the brethren most interested?" The replies indicated a preference for historical topics, interpretation of the work, and topics related to lodge administration. The District Deputy Grand Masters' replies indicated that generally lodges are not borrowing a significant number of books from the central library for educa- tional purposes. The new book "Beyond the Pillars" is in demand, and has been acquired by a large number of brethren but is not being used extensively as a reference book for Masonic Education.

Some districts adopted a theme such as "Making Masonry Meaningful", "Membership", "Masonry and Men" but for the most part the Supervisors left the responsibility for choice of topic and theme to the individual lodges.

One of the most difficult parts of preparing the annual repon on Masonic Education is to summarize the highlights of the Masonic Year. If space permitted one would be justified in making reference to the report from each district. The following examples have been chosen to illustrate what are considered highly successful experiences and by recording them in the report others may wish to introduce them in their districts in the future. 104 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

In Brant District the Supervisor of Education accompanied the District Deputy Grand Master and presented an address on the occasion of the official visit to the lodge. Bruce, North Huron and several other districts were encouraged by the open-forum discus- sion approach to masonic education developed around the question and answer approach. In Hamilton District "A" emphasis was focussed on education at regular meetings rather than a special district-wide night. In Hamilton "B" on the other hand a district meeting developed around Grand Lodge Committees and theii purpose and operation proved effective and satisfying. A broadly based program in Niagara "A" District included an educational meeting in each lodge in the district, slide presentations and two district meetings. Unfortunately the Supervisor of Education for the district was taken ill in mid-April. In Nipissing West the District Supervisor prepared eight items on Masonic Education and circu- lated them to the lodges in the district.

The committee on Masonic Education for Ontario district was headed by a member of the Board of General Purposes and focussed its attention on making plans for more than one year. Western District appointed two supervisors, one to look after the lodges in the southern end of the district and one to look after those in the north. The lodges in Western District are so far apart (Atikokan is 350 miles from Red Lake) that a supervisor in one end of the District does not have an opportunity to visit lodges in the other end.

Wellington and Waterloo Districts combined in a one-day workshop held at the Waterloo Masonic Temple and considered the topic "A Daily Advancement Through Masonic Education". Assisted by members of the Board of General Purposes the work- shop broke into four sections and used the round table discussion approach. It is reported that the workshop was quite successful.

A large proportion of the membership is located in Toronto and traditionally the Masonic Education programs in this part of our Grand Jurisdiction have been imaginative and effective. This year has been no exception. Toronto District 2 held a Lodge of instruction, and a District Meeting around the topic "Masonic Hang Ups", which provided an opportunity to air such things as projecting our image on the public at large, what does Grand Lodge do with its money?, and candidate sponsorship. The District held a workshop and conference at Meadowbrook Golf and Country Club, a follow-up to the Port Hope Conference. Toronto District 3 laid out a program around the Library, Research, Lodges and Educational Meetings. The report includes the following per- tinent statement, "Education generally is accepted with reluctance and yet paradoxically is something that members desperately wish to obtain. It would appear therefore that the biggest stumbling block is in the manner of presentation and not usually the content". Toronto District 7 reports as a highlight the portrayal of the Entered Apprentice Degree as conferred in England 200 years ago and concludes the District report by recommending more emphasis on audio-visual programs. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 105

(3) Trends and Suggestions There was considerable emphasis placed on the interpretation of the work and the services of Most Worshipful Brother Bailey were much in demand. The responsibility of the Custodian of the Work is a heavy one and we are indebted to M.W. Bro. Bailey for his untiring efforts in helping to maintain a uniformity of interpre- tation and purpose.

The increasing interest in topics of historical significance sug- gests the need for close collaboration between the Library Com- mittee and the Committee on Masonic Education. Already planning is underway to develop topics for discussion at the lodge level, using references recommended by the Library Committee.

There is an increasing tendency to develop open-forum dis- cussion meetings. This format provides an opportunity for members to express their views and exchange ideas. It is encouraging to recognize this pattern developing in our lodges.

In drawing this report to a close I make reference to a statement in the Windsor District report. "Masonic Education" are "dirty words" and are the cause of some brethren staying away from lodge. Lest any committee become complacent, this statement serves as a reminder to develop programs that are meaningful and practical. Under whatever words we choose to identify our purpose, in simple terms I hold the view we are attempting to enlighten each other on who we are, what we are and for what purpose.

All of which is respectfully and fraternally submitted on be- half of the Committee. N. R. RICHARDS, Chairman.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON WARRANTS

This report was presented by R.W. Bro. H. O. Polk, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro, Polk, it was received and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir, and Brethren: Your Committee on Warrants composed of: Most Wor. Bro. J. A. Irvine; Rt. Wor. Bros. M. J. Bradley, R. S. Throop, A. F. Williams, N. E. Jensen, G. B. Rickard, F. Fairfield, G. A. Fitzgerald, and W. R. Leach, is pleased to present its report for the year 1973-4. 106 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

Applications for Warrants have been received from three Lodges presently operating Under Dispensation, which we find encouraging, commendable, and gratifying.

The petitions, books and records of all three have been ex- amined, found to be in good order, and entirely satisfactory. There is every indication of each being in a flourishing state of efficient advancement.

We recommend therefore that Warrants be issued as follows:

1. Trillium Lodge U.D., Guelph, instituted on May 24th, 1973, to be Numbered 724, and alloted to Wellington District.

2. Wellington Square Lodge U.D., Burlington, instituted on October 11th, 1973, to be numbered 725, and assigned to Hamil- ton District A.

3. Andor Gero Lodge U.D., Etobicoke, instituted on January 10th, 1974, to be nimabered 726, and attached to Toronto District No. 5.

Presently there are no other Lodges operating Under Dispen- sation but some in various stages of organization. We look forward to continued development during the coming months.

The Secretaries of the Lodges petitioning Warrants are to be highly commended for the efficiency with which their records have been kept, and for utilizing to the best advantage the Record books recommended by Grand Lodge.

We consider it appropriate to advise, upon the formation of a new Lodge, consideration be given, for the W.M. to appoint a well skilled Brother as Historian.

If yearly highlights are recorded systematically from the es- pecial events involved in the Instituting and Chartermg of a Lodge (.thereby its inception) and continued on an orderly regular basis, a most valuable continual record can be preserved for posterity, both for the older members in retrospect, and to newer members in anticipation of future highlight events.

The importance of fire-proof storage for the safe-keeping of the Warrant, Minute Book, By-Laws and vital records of every Lodge is again emphasized.

The Warrant particularly becomes increasingly valuable in succeeding years, and cannot be replaced in original form, if destroyed.

Because of population shifts to urban centres, together with the formation of newly created satellite Cities in certain areas of our Grand Jurisdiction, your committee reminds the D.D.G.M.'s, TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 107

and the Stalwarts of existing Lodges near such areas, particularly the numerically larger ones, to offer their services as leaders in the formation of new Lodges therein. We have only to recall to memory that our forefathers established most of the now operating Lodges and Temples that have become an integral part of the communities in which we reside, and from which our generation has derived so much benefit. Likewise a responsibility rests with us to extend that effort by creating Lodges and having Temples erected in each and every new community in this Grand Jurisdic- tion to become a working companion of the Church, the school system, and the home—a part of the community.

We again stress the availability of the Grand Secretary and his staff at all times to assist in the formation of a new Lodge par- ticularly in providing and setting up required record books. It is most advantageous to avail ourselves of the wealth of experience and guidance that will be cheerfully offered, either by a personal visit to our Grand Lodge office, or upon a written communication.

Finally we welcome the members of our three new Lodges to this Grand Lodge. May each ever be guided and empowered to the service of true Brotherhood, a future bright with the Light of knowledge, and a full measure of prosperity, contentment and happiness as he embarks upon the journey of service to our exalted craft.

Respectfully and fraternally submitted, HOWARD O. POLK, Chairman.

REPORT OF THE BLOOD DONORS' COMMirrEE

This report was presented by R.W. Bro. R. J. Connor, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand

Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Connor, it was received and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Membeis of Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

Your Blood Donors' Committee is pleased to submit its report for the 1973-1974 Masonic year.

Participation was the theme tried by the two London Districts this year. In January they held a dinner for all lodge Blood Donor Chairmen with short talks by the area chairman, V.W. Bro. Ron Shoebottom and the two District Chairmen, W. Bro. Joe Hessey and W. Bro. John Spry. Following the dinner all adjourned to 108 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

Temple Lodge to present that lodge with the trophy for the greatest increase in donations for the previous year. The whole evening was devoted to the one subject, with the Grand Lodge Blood Donor Chairman as the principal speaker in the lodge room. This evening allowed each lodge chairman to meet his opposite number from the other lodges and to discuss problems on a one-to-one basis. It was an apparently successful venture as these two districts showed a 60% increase over last year. A simple, yet effective plan.

But what of the other districts?

The District Deputy Grand Masters are to be commended on their choice of District Chairmen of Blood Donors' as their diligence and zeal is most evident in the results which follow. The 1973 totals are provided for your comparison.

A special mention must go to the following for extra effort: To Wor. Bro. Adam Walder, Toronto District 1 for the greatest number of donations— 1042; to W. Bro. John Rickard, Ontario District, for the greatest increase in donations—290; to W. Bro. George Brooks, Muskoka-Parry Sound District for the greatest per- centage increase 650%. We again must pay a special tribute to Ionic Lodge, No. 229, Brampton for not being satisfied with their wonderful results of the past, but for again topping their record by 22 to a new high of 448 donations. V.W. Bro. Albert Thompson of Peterborough District has again shown an increase in his district, partly by salesmanship and partly by example, as in January of 1974 he made his 100th blood donation. In Prince Edward District, Bros. Clarence Deacon and Andrew Mcintosh were honoured by the County Memorial Hospital with scrolls attesting to their 75th and 50th donations respectively, and were given excellent coverage in the Picton Gazette.

This year, nineteen of the District Chairmen continued in office, some repeating for a considerable period. In this capacity, our tribute goes to: R.W. Bro. Charles Heels, Victoria District 13 years; R.W. Bro. Cal Krauter, North Huron District— 11 years; R.W. Bro. John Noble, Nipissing West District—9 years; R.W. Bro. Harold Lockwood, Algoma District; V.W. Bro. Albert Thompson, Peterborough District; and Bro. Harley Johnson, Niagara "A" District—each for 7 years; and V.W. Bro. Ron Shoebottom, London Districts for 6 years. To these senior service members, to the 12 who have served from 2 to 4 years and the 23 dedicated Masons now completing their first year in this cause, our warmest congratulations are extended.

Our congratulations go out also to R.W. Bro. Neil Sinclair, D.D.G.M. of Bruce District; V.W. Bro. Milt Williamson, Grand Steward of Toronto District No. 1; and to V.W. Bro. Albert Thompson, Grand Standard Bearer, Peterborough District for their preferment by their brethren. All these have served, or are serving, as Blood Donor Chairmen and have certainly deserved the honour of promotion for their sincere efforts.

Brethren, the need for blood never diminishes, it increases daily. As you can see by this report, we too are showing an in- crease, but it is painfully slow. The donating of blood is "Brother- hood in Action", and if we wish to demonstrate that we are true brothers of mankind, then we should be regular blood donors. 110 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

To our Grand Master, a special thank you, for the years he dedicated to this cause and for his ever encouraging words on behalf of the Blood Donors.

Respectfully and fraternally submitted,

ROD J. CONNOR, Chairman. CALLED OFF

REPORT OF THE LIBRARY COMMITTEE

This report was presented by V.W. Bro. Wallace McLeod, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by V.W. Bro. McLeod, it was received and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M., of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

On behalf of the Library Committee I have the honour to present the following report to the 119th Annual Communication of this Grand Lodge. Your Committee was composed of M.W. Bros. H. L. Martyn, W. K. Bailey; R.W. Bros. A. J. Grosvenor, C. N. Davison, D. C. Bradley, A. F. Williams, A. J. Dawson, J. W. Pearce, H. A. Hopkins (and after his departure from Canada, M. Campbell), and C. D. MacKenzie, with the undersigned as Chairman.

Somewhere or other Stephen Leacock says:

"If I were founding a university—and I say it with all the seriousness of which I am capable—I would found first a smoking room; then when I had a little more money in hand I would found a dormitory; then after that, or more probably with it, a decent reading room and a library. After that, if I still had money over that I couldn't use, I would hire a professor and get some text books." TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 111

His words can be applied to our gentle Craft. To learn about it we do not need Masonic lecturers, not in the first place. We need to talk Masonry, to live Masonry—and to read Masonry.

Just forty-two years ago Grand Lodge established a reference and circulating Library, using as its core the books bequeathed by M.W. Bro. John Ross Robertson. The collection has now grown to more than six thousand items. Evidently it has the potential to play a vigorous role in promoting education.

During these forty-two years, while Committees have come and gone like the flowers in their seasons, the post of Librarian has been held by only three brethren. Since 1967 the burden has belonged to Bro. William J. McKee, of Runnymede Lodge, No. 619. Those who frequent the Library will testify to his skill, his kindness, his common sense, his humanity, and his determination. Let our gratitude to him be here recorded.

For the sixth consecutive year V.W. Bros. Charles S. Gulston and John Petherick have served as volunteer assistants for two noon-hours a week. How long they will continue to let us impose on them, we know not; but once again we are greatly in their debt.

"Of making many books there is no end", saith the wise Solomon; and any self-respecting library is obliged to keep up to date. During the year we purchased fifty-four books en Masonic subjects. The titles need not be rehearsed here, for they will be listed in due course in a revised guide to the use of the Library. Suffice it to say that some of them would be assets to anyone's collection; such as Cartwright's Commentary on the Freemasonic Ritual and Coil's Freemasonry through Six Centuries. Others are less precious, and range from the empty to the fantastic; their names in charity we veil.

But beyond these, the Library has been strengthened by gifts totalling one hundred and twenty-eight books. Amongst the donors we must cite the Grand Lodge of Masons in Massachusetts, R.W. Bro. Roy E. Baylis, and V.W. Bro. J. Palmer Kent, each of whom contributed a number of books. One other benefactor needs special mention. Bro. Alexander Robb has been for many years a member of the Toronto Society for Masonic Research. One of his associ- ates there was our first Librarian, Bro. N. W. J. Haydon. In memory of his friend, Bro. Robb has entrusted to us his collection of books written by the English mystic, occultist, and Freemason, Arthur Edward Waite (1857-1942); there are seventy volumes, most of them in first editions. To these donors, and to others whose benefactions were less prodigal, we are extremely grateful.

In recent years the Library has circulated 35-millimetre coloured slides, with a taped commentary, on the Grand Lodge Communication of 1970. They have proved popular, and your Committee has been pleased to expand this aspect of its activities. 112 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

We now have slides of the last Grand Lodge Communication, of Freemasons' Hall in London, of the murals in the Montreal Memorial Temple (presented by the Grand Lodge of Quebec), and of various Masonic relics and memorabilia (copied from originals loaned by Bro. John E. Taylor, of Ionic Lodge, No. 25). Com- mentaries on these are nearing completion. Cassette recordings are already available of the address delivered at the Grand Master's Banquet by M.W. Bro. James S. Woods, Past Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Alberta, in 1972, and by M.W. Bro. Mervyn Woods, Past Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Saskatchewan, in 1973, as well as of a talk presented by Bro. Harry Carr when he visited Toronto in 1972. We also have ten cassettes on which are recorded Short Talk Bulletins prepared by the Masonic Service Association of the United States. A friend who wishes to remain anonymous has contributed a cassette player and head-phones, so that one may listen to these recordings in the Library without disturbing those who are reading.

As a further accession, we now have an elegant book-rack, through the generosity and craftsmanship of W. Bro. Kenneth M. Comrie and V.W. Bro. Meredith H. Hastings.

Your Committee has always tried to publicize its resources. Five years ago every lodge in the province received a book-list; this was done last year again, and again this year. In 1970 posters were placed in every Masonic temple in Ontario. The book Beyond the Pillars, published a year ago, closed with an exhortation to use the Library. This year to help guide the novice through the jungle of Masonic literature, the Committee has prepared brief reviews of some sixty books. Last October ten of them were sent to each District Deputy Grand Master, so that he might give them wider currency. Recently we have taken steps to see that two more reviews reach ten thousand Masons across Canada every three months. So we have been trying.

What effect has this publicity had? In the period from May 10, 1973, to May 13, 1974, 227 visitors signed their names in the register (a decrease of 5% from last year); 216 books were mailed to out-of-town brethren (an increase of 19%), and 157 books were loaned to local members (a decrease of 27%). The total is down slightly. That in itself is no cause for melancholy; but worse is to follow. Most of our patrons are habitual readers; the 373 books loaned this year were borrowed by only 85 brethren. Of all the Masons in Ontario, less than one-tenth of one per cent can bring themselves to borrow even one book. Here is no cause for com- placency. What is the answer? We can think of nothing but con- tinuing our efforts at promotion, making our holdings more easy of access, and, above all, persuading those who are active in Masonic education that for them the Library is riches beyond compare. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 113

Outside the central collection of books in Toronto, the whole province is dotted with local Masonic libraries which are admin- istered by lodges, temples, and Districts. In order that we might get some indication of how these books were being used, we asked each District Deputy Grand Master to give details for his District, and to offer any suggestions that occurred to him. We are grateful for this information, which proved instructive, but gloomy. Local resources are not being put to the best possible use. Many libraries seem to comprise nothing but old, heavy, forbidding, irrelevant, leather-bound tomes.

Happily, there are exceptions. We have heard of some local Masonic libraries (and we should like to hear of others) which are rendering remarkable service. Perhaps we could profit by their example. Several of them appoint a lodge librarian, and get good publicity at frequent intervals in open lodge, or in the summons or newsletter. But above all, to attract readers, we must have books that are sane, useful, up-to-date, convenient, and pleasantly written; books such as our own Beyond the Pillars and First Grand Master, Pick and Knight's two pocket books, and Carl Claudy's Introduc- tion to Freemasonry and Masonic Harvest. Get books like these, and let the brethren know of them, and there may be hope for us yet.

And now it is time to look to the future, and offer our recom- mendations. It goes without saying that the Grand Lodge Library must continue to grow, and to keep its name before the Masons of Ontario. But it must move ahead in other ways as well.

Any handbook on library administration will tell you that you need an accession list, an author-and-title catalogue, a rational system of classification, and probably a shelf list and a subject catalogue as well. We have none of these. Admittedly our Librarian can find practically any book you want. But how much easier if the books were properly catalogued and logically shelved! This will be a gargantuan task; but it must be undertaken.

The Library cannot hope to serve even its local patrons adequately so long as it is open only two noon-hours, one after- noon, and one evening a week. To be sure, the librarian has shown himself willing to meet anyone at other times by appointment; on occasion this has been helpful to out-of-town visitors. But beyond that the hours need to be extended radically. There is no sub- stitute for browsing among the books. Your Committee has tried in vain this year to keep the Library open five evenings a week. For this we needed volunteers; we found but two.

If our brethren are to grow and learn, there is no substitute for reading. Listening to a speech or sitting in front of a screen may be less toilsome, but it is also less productive. By watching a twenty-minute newscast we get the equivalent of only one-third 114 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION of a page from a daily newspaper. We must keep trying to convert more Masons to the joy of reading. This affection for the printed word is not a novel aberration devised by your Committee for this particular occasion. More than two thousand years ago a celebrated statesman, humanist, and philosopher said it for us:

"Other pastimes are not for all seasons, or all ages, or all places; but these studies make young men keen, and old men happy; in prosperity they polish and adorn; in misfortune they comfort and sustain; a pleasure at home, no inconveni- ence abroad, they keep us company in the night, on the road, at the cottage."

All of which is respectfully and fraternally submitted on behalf of your Committee.

WALLACE McLEOD,

Chairman.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON THE CONDITION OF MASONRY

This report was presented by R.W. Bro. H. Allan Leal, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Leal, it was received and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

Bacon's Essay "Of Iimovations" contains the following sober- ing admonition:

"He that will not apply new remedies must expect new evils, for time is the greatest innovator; and if time of course alter things to the worse, and wisdom and counsel shall not alter them to the better, what shall be the end?"

The fact of change has been constant throughout the re- corded history of human society. The rate of change is a stark reality in contemporary experience since the world, as we know it, is caught in the very vortex of fast accelerating change. To TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 115

resist change is to invite disaster, but the decision concerning what to change in our social and moral institutions—the when, why and how is as critical, complex and elusive an endeavour as it ever was, only more so! Clearly we do not dilute, much less abandon, those fundamental tenets and principles which are the foundation of our fraternity and whose inculcation is our sole raison d'etre. As freemasons it is still vitally important for us, and our order, to know and to proclaim what we stand for, and what we stand against. These things will not and can not be changed. They are immutable for the reason that they are eternal and they are eternal because they are the attributes of the Great Architect of the Uni- verse. This thought was given expression in one of our favourite hymns composed over one hundred years ago by the Reverend H. F. Lyte when he wrote in 1847:

"Change and decay in all around I see; O thou, who changest not, abide with me."

What is it then that we are to change and along what paths is change to be pursued? In our submission the answer to these questions lie in the revitalization and extension of our programmes so that our beliefs have a more direct and profound impact on our membership; that our teachings become even more meaningful for those whose lives are touched by them; and that our way of life may be seen to be relevant for those who would choose to array themselves under our banners.

This is not an exhortation to be militant; rather it is an en- treaty to be vigilant and alive to the opportunity and obligation that is ours. If freemasonry did not exist today someone surely would have to invent it, since it satisfies the basic aspirations of the human spirit. It is against this background that our performance is to be judged and the condition of masonry, more particularly over the past twelve months, is to be assessed. If what follows in this report strikes one as being more germane to the concerns of the chairman of the board of directors of a business corporation preoccupied with the deficiencies of administration, let it be said at once that this is truly the nature of our concerns since the objects of this noble company are so well founded.

It is difficult to make generalizations that have equal validity when applied across the broad geographical expanse of this grand jurisdiction, that reflect the state of health of the order in forty-one (41) masonic districts, and gauge aright the level of activity in our six hundred and thirty-seven (637) constituent lodges. Although there have been difficulties, frustrations and some disappointments, the reports of the District Deputy Grand Masters, all of which we have read, exude an air of quiet satisfaction and restrained opti- mism in a year that was one of great challenge and generous fulfilment. 116 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

There is some evidence distilled from these reports, as well as that garnered from personal experience gained in going about the province, that the news is sometimes good and sometimes bad for all. Some of these matters have already been alluded to in previous annual reports of this Committee and their continued presence is to be expected since the life of freemasonry is a continuum that can only be assessed over a substantial period and is seen only im- perfectly in a snapshot taken at any particular instant of time. We have observed previously that freemasonry in this jurisdiction is getting older. We rejoice in this fact and share with pride and satisfaction the experience of an increasing number of constituent lodges celebrating the 100th anniversary of their founding. The statistics this year reveal an impressive number of masons who have gained recognition for fifty years membership in the craft. One district this year has reported that one of our senior brethren has attained the enviable record of 60 years a mason, 50 years a Past Master and 40 years a Past District Deputy Grand Master. We salute them all and wish them long life and great happiness.

We do well to remind ourselves, however, that the institution of freemasonry is not good simply because it is old, rather it is old because it is good! It has stood the test of time for the reason that it stands today, as in the past, on human values that are time- less and enduring and not to be fobbed off as the trinkets of an easy conscience or the excesses of a fickle fad or fashion.

But time does take its toll in a very real sense with respect to the physical fabric of our lodge premises and your Committee was much encouraged to read of the splendid progress that has been made over the past year in building new temples, as in Sudbury, in refurbishing and altering existing premises and generally in upgrading the quality of our accommodation to make them more acceptable for the high purposes which they serve. It has been noted that inflation is at the point of eroding the financial position of some of the lodges, particularly in the matter of main- tenance or rental of the premises.

It is too much to hope that our institution should be spared the adverse effects of this world-v/ide phenomenon. The complexity of the problem, however, should not absolve us of doing what can be done to blunt its impact. We observe a genuine and general concern in the reports of the District Deputy Grand Masters that lodges in many districts are not coming to grips with the necessity of reviewing their fees structure, both as to initiation fees and annual dues which are being maintained at unrealistically low levels. Too frequently the budgetary imbalance is being met by drawing on meagre reserves. We are not unmindful of the valid argument that a substantial increase in fees may well prove to be counter-productive, but we report on the matter here simply to emphasize the special care and consideration which must be given to this problem if our lodges are to be kept in a healthy financial state. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 117

An allied problem which appears to have assumed some mag- nitude this year is that of arrears. Illustrative of the point, we would simply report that in one district alone, eighteen lodges show 315 brethren in arrears amounting to $6,310.00. This particu- lar matter can only be solved if attacked with resolution and vigour on a continuing basis.

We have been impressed with what appears to be a general recognition that individual lodge programmes should include more meaningful and more frequent opportunities for social intercourse amongst the brethren. As one would expect these occasions reflect the catholicity of taste of our membership ranging from ladies' nights to fish fries, curling bonspiels, golf tournaments and even opera parties. It is not surprising, nor uncommon, to find that such activities have a wholesome influence upon attendance figures at regular lodge meetings and enhance the sense of brotherhood which is our hallm_ark. This change in emphasis in the nature of our programmes is perhaps the most significant in these changing times when we are involved in serious competition for men's allegiance, time and support.

It is surely not redundant in a report of this nature to make reference to the state of the work. We are encouraged to read that throughout the grand jurisdiction it is being performed with uni- formity, proficiency and sincerity. We note as well the heavy schedule that has been undertaken by M.W. Bro. W. K. Bailey, P.G.M., the Custodian of the Work. We also note with satisfaction the fitting and highly successful testimonial dinner that was tendered in Toronto during the year to his illustrious predecessor in that office, M.W. Bro. Harry L. Martyn, P.G.M.

We are truly grateful to the District Deputy Grand Masters for their abundant and devoted efforts on our behalf during this past year. To them, to the District Secretaries, the District Chap- lains and the Chairmen of the District Committees on Masonic Education, Benevolence and Blood Donors we tender and record our sincere thanks.

It is a special privilege for your Committee to acknowledge the leadership and contribution of our Grand Master, M.W. Bro. George E. Turner. It is with affection and respect that we say that in his quiet and unassuming way his influence is profoundly felt throughout all phases of our work.

All of which is respectfully and fraternally submitted on behalf of the Committee.

H. ALLAN LEAL,

Chairman. 118 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON PRINTING AND SUPPLIES

This report was presented by R.W. Bro. H. C. Steele, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Steele, it was received and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

It is my privilege once again to report on behalf of the Committee on Printing and Supplies. The Committee is comprised of the following members: Rt. Wor. Bros. M. J. Bradley, P. W. H. Dell, J. B. Hunter, G. I. Baillie, R. E. Ballard, W. G. Slack, J. H. Clysdale and the chairman.

Expenditures coming under the jurisdiction of the Committee for the year ending April 30th, 1974 are as follows:

Printing and Supplies 1973 - 1974

Memorial Service Booklets $ 845.00 Constitutions for resale (1 year supply) 4,646.00 Classified material (Works-advance payment) 20,000.00 Proceedings and Postage (1300) 6,843.00 Grand Lodge Bulletins (2 issues and postage) 3,925.00 Printing stationery and supplies, office stationery, forms etc. 5,267.61 Preliminary reports (3500) 3,102.64 Fraternal Reviews (3200) 1,899.25 First Grand Master 6,664.00 Candidates' booklets 457.12 Beyond the Pillars (cost, plus postage and handling) 22,301.53 New Lodge books 224.00

$76,175.55

In comparing the expenditures for the year 1972-73 which had been a new high with the expenditures for 1973-74, it will be noted that costs have risen from $33,588.00 to an all time high of $76,175.55. This represents an increase of $42,587.00 over last year's previous all time high.

After close scrutiny of the statement it will be seen that the items that account for the bulk of the increase are recoverable bills of expense. Although it will take some time to recover the capital TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 119

outlay, it was deemed advisable with the rising costs of paper and printing to purchase 3 to 4 years supply of several items, as well as having a new printing of the book "First Grand Master" printed at this time.

In connection with the $22,301.53 item of expense for "BEYOND THE PILLARS", this will be the final expenditure for this book other than the expense of mailing new orders to the members. $1,199.09 of the above amount was the additional ex- pense of shipping, postage and stenographic help.

Your committee wish to express their thanks to the member- ship for the number of books that were purchased. Some Lodges are presenting copies of "Beyond the Pillars" to their new Master jMasons. We heartily endorse this practice and would suggest that other Lodges should adopt this practice.

$6,664.00 was spent on reprinting the book "The First Grand Master". This book is well written, and your committee would like to recommend that each member that does not own a copy of this book should invest $2.00 for a valuable addition to his Masonic Library.

One of the largest items of expense is advance payment of costs of printing "THE WORK". As may be noted in last year's report, $5,648.00 was spent in printing 1 year's supply. Under ad- visement of the Grand Secretary, it was deemed advisable to print 2 to 3 years' supply of "THE WORK" in light of the tremendous increase in the cost of paper.

Your Committee are happy to approve the expenditure of $224.40 for new books for 3 new lodges—Trillium, Wellington Square and Andor Gero.

Your committee wish to offer their thanks to the Grand Secretary for the efficient manner in which he endeavours to keep costs down. His foresight in ordering more than 1 year's supply at a time to try and combat inflation. Without his judgment and ability, the expenditures made on behalf of the Committee of Printing and Supplies would soon skyrocket to unreasonable high figures.

We wish to thank the staff of the Grand Secretary's Office for their assistance and co-operation during the past year.

Respectfully and fraternally submitted.

H. CAMERON STEELE, Chairman. —

120 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON AUDIT AND FINANCE

Presented by R.W. Bro. A. C. Ashforth, Chairman, on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Ashforth, it was received and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

This Committee has now reviewed and considered in detail the reports of the Grand Treasurer, the Auditor's report attached thereto, and the report of the Grand Secretary as referred to it by this Annual Communication. These appear to fully and accurately record the essential details pertaining to

(a) the financial position of this Grand Lodge as of April 30, 1974, and the results of its fiscal operations on a cash basis for the twelve-month period ended on that date.

(b) details of all Receipts and Disbursements in respect to the General Fund, the Memorial Fund, and the Semi-Centennial Fund; together with particulars of all transactions and changes in Capital Accounts of Grand Lodge, which have occurred during the said period.

(c) the Investment Accounts of the above mentioned Funds and the summary of all financial resources as of April 30, 1974.

The following observations respecting certain matters covered by these reports, and or, relative to its financial affairs, are pre- sented for your consideration.

(1) The Audited Statements of Grand Lodge accounts show that the net balance of all its resources now amounts to $1,806,716.11. This net balance includes total investments at cost value (not market value), plus cash on hand and in the Bank and represents an increase in assets of $40,882.01 over the figures of a year ago.

(2) In accordance with traditional policy, all securities in which Grand Lodge invests its funds, come within the category of Trustee Investments with the exception of $200,000.00 Series "A" and $40,000.00 Series "B" debentures of Masonic Holdings which are payable on demand after June 1, 1978. These were acquired under specific authority of this Grand Lodge in 1959. So far $152,000.00 of these debentures have been redeemed, including $10,000.00 redeemed on April 30th, 1974. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 121

All securities, with few exceptions, are fully registered as to capital and interest, and are currently held in the custody of the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, Hamilton, Ontario, whose certificate of confirmation is attached to the Auditor's Report.

(3) Total receipts under the General Fund for fees, dues, commutations, interest on investments, etc. amounted to $288,170.87 whilst disbursements totalled $272,052.39 leaving an excess of income over expenditures of $16,118.48. This compares with a surplus of $7,074.82 in the preceding year. Strict control of all expenditures has been constantly maintained.

(4) Grants for benevolent purposes, less those refunded ana cancelled, amounted to $57,123.30, a decrease of $4,072.51 from a year ago. These grants were paid out of the combined incomes of the Memorial and Semi-Centennial Funds, as supplemented by transfers from the General Fund, which last year amounted to $20,200.00, down $7,200 from the preceding year. The Report of the Committee on Benevolence has made reference to the trend in its activities and consequently the amount established for its use in this year's budget is reduced from $30,000 to $23,000. This Committee on Audit and Finance therefore recommends that in order to provide these funds, the Board of General Purposes authorize, in accordance with Section 119 of the Constitution, ap- propriations from the General Fund up to the amount of $23,000. Such funds to be transferred as and when required to the com- bined Memorial and Semi-Centennial Funds, in order to supple- ment the interest and income therefrom, thus making adequate provision for all benevolent grants which Grand Lodge may extend during the period May 1, 1974 to April 30, 1975.

In passing, may I say, the Committee on Benevolence has shown great care and understanding in administering the funds entrusted to it.

The Report of the Grand Secretary includes a recapitulation of the membership as of December 31, 1973. It is of interest to note that the loss of Membership last year was lower than it was the year before.

Your Committee recommends approval of the special dona- tions to charitable institutions totalling $4,500 which were made under authority of the Grand Master and as itemized in the finan- cial statements.

The Committee is pleased to observe a further bequest of $4,834.14 has been received from the Hutchinson Estate.

In its review of all matters covered by this report, your Com- mittee has received the fullest co-operation and assistance from the Grand Secretary and his staff, all of whom are well informed in relation to their respective duties. It is a pleasure to receive throughout the year the co-operation of the Grand Treasurer, 122 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION whose talents are many and his policy judgments sound. Your Committee now formally recommends to this Grand Lodge the adoption, without amendment, the reports of the above mentioned officers and approval of the recommendations contained in this Committee's Report.

In accordance with Section 101 of the Constitution, your Com- mittee submits for consideration and approval, an estimate of Re- ceipts and Expenditures as it relates to the General Fund for the year ending April 30, 1975. ESTIMATE OF RECEIPTS AND DISBURSEMENTS

A. C. ASHFORTH, Chairman. 124 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION REPORT OF THE GRAND CHAPLAIN

The Grand Chaplain, R.W. Bro. Rev. R. de Corneille, presented his report. On motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. de Corneille, it was received and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

The annals of Masonry, like the firmament of heaven, are star-studded with its heroes. But its many other luminaries, which individually may not be visible to the naked eye, like the Milky Way, provide the magnificent aura and illumination of Masonic glory. While we all know this, I still was amazed and wonder-struck by the contribution that is being made by one category of our Masons about whom we so seldom speak. I refer to our District Chaplains.

In preparation for this report, I sent a letter to every District Chaplain inviting him to kindly advise me of his activities diu'ing the year and of any suggestions or advice he might wish to give. The content of the twenty-eight responses to this letter of request should make us exceedingly grateful. From them we learn that many District Chaplains not only arranged for splendid District Services (sometimes several in a year), but also travelled extensively with the District Deputy Grand Master, gave spiritual and edu- cational addresses, encouraged Lodge Services, participated in dedications and memorial events and visited the sick and shut-ins.

i am constrained to share with you the highlights of these replies:

W. Bro. William Bridger, Chaplain of Wilson District, reports that he has attended all but two of the official visits in his District, has served as Chaplain of Norfolk Lodge No. 10 for fourteen years with regular attendance and, in fact, has attended his Lodge for the last twenty-nine years being absent only three or four meetings due to illness. Needless to say, he arranged for a lovely and reverent Divine Service as District Chaplain. He writes, "Masonry to me is a way of life, and I am enjoying it to the fullest."

The Very Rev. Dr. G. Coster Scovil, Dean of Moosonee and Chaplain of Temiskaming District, reports that he travelled 940 miles to attend all but one of the visits with the District Deputy Grand Master, and in the case of that one exception he has al- ready visited there the previous year. Three area services were held—in Kirkland Lake, Iroquois Falls and Timmins. He has served as District Chaplain in previous years and last year preached at all three area services. Judging from their titles, he has pre- pared a number of valuable addresses relevant to Masonry. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 125

Rev. R. Clarence McCIenaghan, District Chaplain of South Huron, after having visited all but three of the seventeen Lodges there, giving short messages, dedicating regalia, sharing in Divine Services and arranging the District Service, states that "the office of Chaplain becomes much more meaningful to the brethren of the District when one can accompany the District Deputy Grand Master on his official visits."

The Rev. Canon R. L. McLaren, District Chaplain of Grey, who accompanied the District Deputy Grand Master on all his official visits except three (when he was confined to hospital for surgery), used each visit as an occasion to give a short talk on some of the aspects of the teaching of Masonry. St. Paul's Church in Shelburne was filled to capacity with Masons and their wives ai the District Service and all Lodges in the District were represented save one. His sermon topic was "Masonry in a Changing World."

The Very Rev. Ronald E. Lundy, Dean of St. Alban's Cathedral in Kenora, whom I knew as a youngster when I was a student-assistant in Mono Mills, Ontario, reports on his extensive activities, and also that he preached at the District Service at his Cathedral on the text "According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon." (1 Cor. 3:10). He also asks "Do you recall your student days in Mono? Well, I am the red-headed boy on the farm who used to bug you." That red-headed boy is now one of the popular and sophisticated leaders in the Anglican Church of Canada.

The Rev. John V. Mills, District Chaplain of Toronto District 7, who has also served in the past as Assistant Grand Chaplain, organized a most impressive Divine Service and preached on "Freemasonry Triumphant". From the material he submitted, it is evident that his commitment continues over the years.

The Rev. C. Robert Townshend, District Chaplain of Chat- ham, submitted a report which could be summed up in his own words, "I was well received and the men seemed to show a real interest and concern in the work and the responsibilities of a District Chaplain."

The Rev. D. F. Dunning, District Chaplain of Frontenac, in concluding his fine report makes the sage observation, "Many Masons carry the practice of secrecy to such an extent that no outsider would suspect that they belonged to an order based on Justice, morality and brotherly love."

The Rev. R. Gordon Hazlewood, Chaplain of Hamilton Dist- rict "A", was obviously involved in organizing or participating in a number of important major Masonic services, but in typical Masonic fashion gives credit to others and praises them. The spiritual side of Masonry was certainly given prominence in that District this year. 126 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

Bro. T. Roy Adams, District Chaplain of Niagara District "A", accompanied the D.D.G.M. on all of his official visits, save one, as well as attending most of the District installations. He ob- viously exemplifies his closing thought, "I feel that the District Chaplain has an important responsibility and by his regular attend- ance and participation can do much to help his brethren."

The Rev. William John K. Province, District Chaplain of Toronto District 1, has served for three terms as District Chaplain, for fifteen years has officiated at Remembrance Day Services for Ulster Lodge, and needless to say, arranged for a District Service at which "the Church being filled to overflowing".

Rev. Douglas T. Sloan, District Chaplain of Wellington, took part in a host of services and dedications.

Rev. A. Parsons, District Chaplain of Prince Edward, visited all of the Lodges except two, was active in a variety of ways, and reports "a capacity attendance" at the District Divine Service.

Bro. B. W. Sharpe, Chaplain for Hamilton District "B", attended all meetings with the D.D.G.M. save one, and in the majority of these meetings delivered short inspirational messages.

A warm and enthusiastic report from Rev. Gordon Lapp, District Chaplain of Toronto District 5, who accompanied the D.D.G.M. on over half his visits, reflects an outstanding experience in both Lodge and Divine worship.

The Rev. J. L. Petrie, District Chaplain of St. Thomas, des- cribes an unusual setting for a Masonic service—beautiful Pinafore Park, where approximately four hundred Masons gathered for a District Service.

Rev. Douglas A. Greenough, District Chaplain of Algoma, as an addition to his regular duties visited such sick Brethren as had been reported in local hospitals, especially those from outside of the city.

The Rev. Cyril W. Earle, District Chaplain of Eastern District, was transferred during his term of office but still carried on with his responsibilities despite this handicap.

Bro. Gordon Taplin, Chaplain of Muskoka-Parry Sound District, reports that in addition to the reward of service in his office, the "lasting fraternal friendships throughout the District" are his greatest treasure.

Rev. William Fairley, Victoria District Chaplain, not only attended twelve of the fourteen official visits of the D.D.G.M., but also often spoke on the contents of "Beyond the Pillars" from a TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 127

scriptural point of view and their practical application to daily life. In addition to an outstanding annual Church service, he furthered Masonic education at many meetings.

The Rev. Dr. Wilfred F. Butcher, District Chaplain for Nipissing East, has had a wide ranging experience in different prov- inces serving Masonry as a District Chaplain over the years. His wisdom and tact have had such impact that it has reached my attention from a variety of sources and his own report reflects the extent of the application of his experience and abilities to the Masonic life of his District.

The Rev. Charles H. Jam.es, District Chaplain of London East, ranged far and wide to country as well as city Lodges and his enthusiastic participation covers all facets of Masonic life. The District Service at St. Paul's Cathedral in London must have been inspiring, with members of Kilwinning Lodge No. 64 dressed in their kilts and serving as ushers, with an outstanding choir and a "who's who" of London clergy participating.

Wor. Bro. F. Kenneth Riggs, District Chaplain of Sarnia, was active not only in the District Service but in many services held by the Lodges in his area. Such encouragement of Lodge ser- vices widens the possibihties for greater involvement and the attendance of the District Chaplain strengthens these events.

The Rev. John A. A. Mennell, District Chaplain of Windsor, in a splendid report on his activities related that the District Ser- vice was held in Shaar Ha Shomayim Synagogue with an attend- ance of 350 and an outstanding sermon given by Rabbi Samuel StoUman.

The Rev. Carman G. Beckel, Chaplain of Toronto District 2, highlights his report with the outstanding contribution of another Jew, Bro. Rabbi Harold Lerner of Pride of Israel Congregation, whose address on the Temple of Solomon was so outstanding that it is being distributed to the new District Deputy Grand Masters at Grand Lodge. Harmony and brotherly love are thus always re- warded when we put our principles into action and share the treasures of our spiritual insights.

Extremely valuable suggestions for ways in which the District Chaplains can make still greater and effective contributions were submitted by the Rev. W. H. LeGrow, Chaplain of Ottawa District 1, the Rev. Ian D. Nichols, Chaplain of Toronto District 3, the Rev. William Fairley of Victoria District, Dr. Wilfred F. Butcher of Nipissing East, the Rev. Thomas H. Wells, District Chaplain of Ontario, the Rev. Charles H. James of London East, Wor. Bro. F. Kenneth Riggs of Sarnia and the Rev. John A. A. Mennell of Windsor. These suggestions are being submitted to the Grand Master for his perusal and consideration. Unquestionably, they can contribute to the good of Masonry and all these reports will be submitted to him by a very grateful Grand Chaplain. —

128 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

It has been a privilege, as Grand Chaplain, to personify and represent all the District Chaplains and Lodge Chaplains who render so much service so humbly and faithfully. It has been an awesome responsibility and yet a joyful one to reflect their glory at Grand Lodge events, dedications, centermials and memorials. The friendship and affection of the Brethren of Grand Lodge given to me represents the high esteem in which the Grand East views the work of Chaplains throughout this great jurisdiction.

Respectfully submitted, R.W. BRO. REV. ROLAND DE CORNEILLE, Grand Chaplain

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON GRIEVANCES AND APPEALS

This report was presented by R.W. Bro. P. S. MacKenzie, Chairman; on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. MacKenzie, it was re- ceived and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

Your Committee on Grievances and Appeals presents its report in the following parts:

1. PARKDALE LODGE, No. 510, vs. BRO. JACK F. HANCOCK.

This case came before your Committee in 1973 and the facts are stated at some length in the 1973 Proceedings of Grand Lodge at p. 147.

The accused was charged in his Lodge with unmasonic con- duct under Rule 1 (g) and (s). After trial Bro. Hancock was found guilty as charged and was suspended by his Lodge with a recommendation of expulsion.

Your committee concurred in the findings of the Lodge, recommended to Grand Lodge that certain irregularities in service of process on the accused be waived and that Bro. Hancock be notified to appear at this communication to show cause why he should not be expelled. Grand Lodge accepted these recommenda- tions. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 129

Bro. Hancock has been notified to attend. He has not appeared. Your Committee therefore recommends that Bro. Jack F. Hancock be expelled.

2. WOODLAND LODGE, No. 680 vs. BRO. TERRY GRANTLAND PAUL.

This case came before your Committee in 1973 and the facts are stated in the 1973 Proceedings at p. 149.

Bro. Paul had been convicted of two serious criminal offences in the Supreme Court of Ontario at Sault Ste. Marie and had been sentenced to a term of imprisonment of two years less one day with three years probation thereafter.

After a Masonic Trial, Woodland Lodge suspended him in- definitely and recommended his expulsion.

Grand Lodge directed that the accused be notified to appear at this Annual Communication to show cause why he should noi be expelled.

He has been so notified. He has appeared. In view of the representations received this committee recommends that this matter be set over until the next annual communication of Grand Lodge and in the meantime the indefinite suspension be continued.

Your Committee is pleased to report that the above two matters are the only ones requiring your attention at this Com- munication. While at first view this may lead to a conclusion that within our Order, at least, a trend toward more serious observance of our laws and regulations is indicated, such an optimistic view may not be justified.

Again this year your committee has been invited to offer assistance to some Lodges which have experienced serious and distressing problems. Some of them have not as yet been resolved. The necessity of dealing speedily and judiciously with major offences against our rules occasionally conflicts with the desire of Lodge officers and members to avoid internal dissension and un- pleasant publicity. Flagrant violations of our fundamental principles must be dealt with expeditiously by the constituent lodges to pre- serve undiminished the unblemished reputation of our Order in our various communities. Your committee is ready and willing at all times to render assistance and advice, if requested, to any lodge faced with a vexing problem of unmasonic conduct by one of its members. We urge particularly that the Rules of Procedure laid down for guidance in the Book of Constitution be scrupulously observed. Be especially careful to ensure before a charge is laid that there is cogent evidence to support it—avoid the discomfiture of requiring a brother to face a charge of unmasonic conduct on flimsy and uncorroborated evidence which may prove an em- barrassment to him and to the lodge. 130 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

Once, however, a charge is filed let it be proceeded with, in sympathy and dignity, giving careful observance to the formalities and sequence of procedure laid down in the Rules respecting Trials.

Respectfully and fraternally submitted,

P. STUART MacKENZIE, Chairman.

This report was presented by V.W. Bro. E. C. Horwood, Chairman; on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by V.W. Bro. Horwood, it was received and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

During the past year an unusual number of pamphlets, bulletins and brochures have come to my desk dealing with FIRE, FIRE PROTECTION and SMOKE CONTROL, along with sug- gested methods of control, recommendations and requirements. Space will not permit a thorough summary in this report, but I do want to draw your attention to some here below.

Fire follows the path of least resistance, such as in walls that are not fire-stopped, stairs which are not enclosed at the top and at the bottom. Tbat is the reason why. in all Codes, whether National, Provincial, Municipal, or Grand Lodge Requirements, stairwells MUST be enclosed at the top and at the bottom thereof. Even stairwells covered with wallboard may disintegrate when hit by a high pressure stream from a fire hose. Such a stairwell, when building occupants are trying to escape, may very well be- come a raging inferno.

Unfortunately, we must all realize, that there is no such thing as absolute safety, and yet, if we were in a building and heard someone yell "FIRE", it would be enough to send a chill through most of us, especially when we think of Panic, Injuries, Property Damage and perhaps even Death.

Firefighting Authorities and Insurance Companies beheve that many of the terrible blazes that have occurred might have been contained in a small area and even might have been classified as minor had there not been serious deficiencies in the building con- struction, shortcomings in fire codes, and especially had there been strict enforcement of the regulations.

We were interested and pleased to hear, recently, that the Provincial Government is considering a New Provincial Code to replace existing Municipal By-laws. We heard that its provisions will be considerably stricter and more demanding than the National Building Code. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 133

Because absolute safety cannot be obtained, safety laws and regulations, which are revised from time to time as a result of experience, sometimes bitter and tragic experience, are needed to control the dangers to buildings, to life and injury to occupants. These regulations are really based on how much risk are we willing to take. Because of the risk that we do take. Grand Lodge has approved and adopted the National Building Code and the Ontario Building Fire Safety Design Standard as part and parcel of its requirements with the proviso that wherever a variation occurs in any of these, the highest standard shall always govern.

The Advisory Committee is pleased to report that, during the past twelve months, another ten Lodges have requested informa- tion and assistance, making a total of 222 Lodges and Temple Corporations since the formation of the Committee in 1957. Many are continuing to seek assistance and advice on their own. particular project. Your Committee has met delegations from some seven Lodges and, at the conclusion of the meetings, the delegations, without exception, have expressed their appreciation and gratitude for the assistance they have received. Some 99 Temples have been dedicated during the period. You may be interested to know about one in particular. Some time back, a delegation came to Hamilton to inform the Advisory Committee that its Lodge was considering buying an Anglican Church Building. After some months, the deal was completed and then the work of remodelling began. Re- cently, the New Temple Building was dedicated by the Grand Master. At the Banquet Hour following the Dedication, (namely Moravian Lodge No. 431, Cargill, in Bruce District) informed the gathering that, when the Anglican Church was being built the then Grand Master, M.W, Bro. Benjamin Allen and Grand Lodge laid the Corner Stone.

I must point out that any Lodge or group of Lodges which is contemplating (1) buying property, renting a Ijuilding, or leasing a building or property, or (2) selecting a name for a Lodge or Hold- ing Company, or (3) Incorporating a Holding Company, should write the Grand Secretary as to the method of procedure, what in- formation and drawings are required, etc. by the Advisory Com- mittee. Furthermore, if a Lodge is contemplating a remodelling or building project the Grand Secretary will send certain guide lines, such as the Grand Lodge Bulletins LBl and LB2 along with the Ontario Fire Marshal's Regulations, pointing out that, in addition, assistance may be obtained from the local Building By-law, the Ontario Building Fire safety Design Standard and the National Building Code of Canada, keeping in mind that the highest standard of all these By-laws, Codes and Grand Lodge Require- ments SHALL always govern. Whatever is done. Absolute Safety is unattainable. Consequently, I urge you never to accept any- thing except the very best protection possible for the safety and comfort of the occupants of your Buildings.

Your Committee appreciates the letters of thanks it has re- ceived for the assistance and help it has gladly given. Unfor- tunately, when the Committee has been unable to give its approval 134 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

to a project because it does not comply with the Regulations of Grand Lodge, or because of the failure of the Lodge to reply to the Grand Secretary's letters requesting information, it has received a very different type of letter. I assure you that the Advisory Com- mittee derives not the slightest pleasure whatsoever from having to refuse to grant approval to a project.

Before I conclude Brethren, I want all of you to know that no Chairman could possibly receive from each member of his Committee, better co-operation and assistance than I have had from the Grand Secretary, M.W. Bro. John A. Irvine and M.W. Bro. Ewart G. Dixon, the Grand Secretary Emeritus. Without fear of contradiction, I am positive that every member of each dele- gation which came to the Grand Lodge Offices in Hamilton would attest to the assistance and advice the delegation received from these two Brethren.

Respectfully and fraternally submitted,

ERIC C. HORWOOD, Chairman of the Advisory Committee on Lodge Buildings.

HONORARY RANK CONFERRED

It was moved by M.W. Bro. H. L. Martyn, seconded by M.W. Bro. E. G. Dixon, that the rank of Past Grand Senior Warden (Honorary) be conferred on V.W. Bro. Eric C. Horwood. Carried.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON THE GRAND MASTER'S ADDRESS

This report was presented by M.W. Bro. B. B. Foster, seconded by M.W. Bro. W. L. Wright; it was received and adopted.

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Brethren:

Your Committee has listened with undivided attention and interest to the Grand Master's Address and we express our sincere commendation of it to you, the members of Grand Lodge. We hope TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1974 135

that many sections will be read in each constituent lodge in the coming year.

We join with the Grand Master in his welcome to our guests and his hope for the enjoyment of their stay with us. We add our appreciation of the careful planning for this communication by the Grand Secretary and his Staff, the Metropolitan Past Masters' Association, R.W. Bros. Robert Strachan, Robert Truscott, V.W. Bro. B. C. McClelland, and all others who may have contributed to its success.

The Grand Master reminds us of the constantly changing membership in this Grand Lodge when he pays fitting tribute to several who have made lasting contributions to our Grand Lodge and have now passed to their reward.

Approval is unanimously given to the two appointments made to the ranks of Grand Stewards, to the confirmation of Past Rank, and to the appointment of Grand Representatives, both near other Grand Lodges and our own. We are pleased to approve the appoint- ment of V.W. Bro. E. C. Horwood to the rank of Hon. Past Grand Senior Warden in recognition of his excellent work in Grand Lodge.

Hearty congratulations are extended to our Grand Master on his dedication to duty. He has attended many District Receptions and Centennial celebrations. The presence of the Grand Master on these occasions adds much to the pleasure of the Masons assembled and to the success of the event. We are happy that he has been able to represent our Grand Lodge at the Annual Com- munications of many of our Sister Grand Lodges, or has sent a representative.

The Grand Master describes in suitable terms the tribute paid to M.W. Bro. Harry L. Martyn last March 26, 1974. We join with him in his apt use of superlatives relating to a sincerely dedicated Masonic career. We are proud of our association with M.W. Bro. Martyn, the benefits accruing to the Craft as a result of his labours, and the freely expressed words of real affection which poured forth on that occasion. M.W. Bro. Martyn is assured of an outstanding place reserved for a few Masons who have always been in the front line, leading our Craft onward and upward to the heights in this jurisdiction. May the golden rays of Masonic light which he has cast upon our Craft continue to brighten the Masonic life of individual Masons because the Masonic education of the individual has always been the goal of his every effort.

M.W. Bro. W. K. Bailey, our Immediate Past Grand Master, has moved from one post of responsibility to another with con- tinued energy, dedication and effectiveness. We would add ou; words of appreciation to those of the Grand Master for an excel- 136 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION lent year as Custodian of the Work. Without getting into the realm of comparisons, we believe that he has effectively carried on the duties of the office so beautifully done by his predecessor, M.W. Bro. H. L. Martyn, for so many years.

Congratulations are extended to all those who have contributed to the success of the books, "Beyond the Pillars" and "The First Grand Master", and the Grand Lodge Bulletin. The work accom- plished is eminently worth while.

Your Committee enthusiastically adds its congratulations to those of the Grand Master for the beautiful new temples provided by the Masons of Sudbury and Cargill for the use and enjoyment of their members.

It is with great satisfaction that we welcome the members of Trillium Lodge, U.D., Guelph, Wellington Square Lodge, U.D., Burlington and Andor Gero Lodge, U.D., Etobicoke, to our fellow- ship, and wish for them great happiness and progress in the future. Our sincere thanks go out to M.W. Bros. H. L. Martyn and W. K. Bailey for the careful planning for the institution of Andor Gero Lodge, which enabled it to move forward from a happy beginning to a smooth and satisfying operation.

We associate ourselves with the Grand Master in extending congratulations to the fifteen lodges which have reached the Cen- tennial plateau, also to those Masons receiving recognition of their membership in the Craft for many years and especially to the four brethren who received the William Mercer Wilson Medal. May they all continue to serve the Craft as faithfully in the future.

We express our pride in and our admiration for our Grand Master, whose genial personality has endeared himself to all the brethren. His messages, on all occasions, have shown his deep understanding of Masonic principles. We look forward, with antici- pation, to a continuation of his able and painstaking administration in the year ahead. May the Great Architect of the Universe con- tinue to guide and protect him as the future unfolds.

Finally, we recommend approval of all decisions, rulings, directives, appointments and recommendations contained in the Grand Master's Address. We hope that our Grand Master will enjoy his usual good health during his next year in office, that he may continue to impart his happy and purposeful disposition to his brethren. May he ever, as in the past, lead the members of this Grand Lodge to a deeper appreciation of Masonic precepts, and to a realization of their responsibility to incorporate these precepts into their own lives.

FOREWORD

To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:

Once again I am afforded the pleasure and responsibility of presenting the Report of the Committee on Fraternal Correspond- ence. This foreword is made in the hope that it will draw your attention to interesting events selected from the Annual Proceed- ings of the several Grand Lodges with which we are in amity. The Proceedings have been reviewed by R.W. Bro. J. J. Talman, who has spent many, many hours on these summaries and record- ing them for our benefit. R.W. Bro. J. J. Talman, P.G.S.W., be- came our reviewer in 1961 and we extend to him our sincere thanks for his extensive service to this Grand Lodge. His rare ability to select items that are of interest to a majority of Ontario Masons is worthy of our appreciative admiration.

The continuing deep interest of the Fraternity in post second- ary education of our young people is encouraging. The forms in which that interest is manifested is almost as varied as the number of jurisdictions reviewed. Read Kansas, Kentucky, New Mexico, Colorado, West Virginia and Louisiana.

We are hearing and reading much about conditions in Ireland in the past few years. I strongly urge you to read the entire review of the Grand Lodge of Ireland that you may appreciate the stout hearts and calm determination to continue the work of the Fra- ternity in that greatly troubled jurisdiction.

In our jurisdiction we grant past rank to our D.D.G.M.'s after serving a full year in office. This is not so in some other Grand Lodges. These have required several years service in the office before receiving the title of P.D.D.G.M. Read Maine.

The subject of inflation seems to be a current topic of discus- sion whenever people gather together. Inflated costs in maintaining facilities for the care of the less fortunate Brethren and their dependents in most of our sister jurisdictions which maintain Masonic Homes has become a serious problem, since to keep complete control of these facilities, the Grand Lodges cannot accept governmental assistance and must bear the entire cost themselves. We applaud our Brethren on their evident success in meeting this challenge so well. Over the years we have had many sincere Masons declare that we should modernize our constitution and ritual. This has been resisted by those who, for equally sincere reasoning, believe that the strength of our Craft lies in its adherence to the estab- lished landmarks that have come down to us from the past. For views on this situation from others, I would refer you to West Virginia, Indiana, New Zealand, and British Columbia.

May I again remind one and all that the items mentioned here are but a few of the many interesting ones in the reviews. They are all worth while reading and worthy of study. I recom- mend them to you.

Respectfully and fraternally submitted,

BRUCE B. FOSTER, Chairman. Fraternal Correspondence and Reviews

Residents of the Alabama Masonic Home totalled 74 during the year. The Board undertook some minor improvements. A Special Committee on Planning sought a suitable plan to dispose of 190 acres of land of no further use to the Home. The property may be worth as much as $8,000 per acre. The Committee believes that the Home buildings are in a run down condition and that now is the time to start planning a modern rest or nursing home. A resolution to support the sale was referred to the Committee on Finance and subsequently adopted. The Home endowment fund stood at $1,500,000 before the sale.

The Education Committee made a particularly strong plea to increase the Masonic knowledge of the membership.

The Grand Lodge established a jewel for presentation to those who have completed fifty years as Past Master of a Lodge in the Jurisdiction. Since the motion required an amendment to the Con- stitution a two-thirds majority was required.

The Grand Master summarized some of the conclusions of the Annual Interprovincial Conference of the Officers of the four Western Jurisdictions held in Banff. The points covered have a brief but clear statement of a Grand Lodge and its relationship with constituent lodges. 4 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA

1. Grand Lodges are legislative and administrative bodies, and through their officers and committees they direct and supervise their Constituent Lodges, but they have a fundamental obliga- tion to provide essential services to their lodges and to guard the usages, customs, and traditions of the Craft. They should avoid needless interference in lodge affairs.

2. The officers of Grand Lodges and Constituent Lodges must be prepared to offer more than the minimum effort demanded by the Constitution if they are to contribute to the welfare of Masonry.

3. The process of selecting and electing District Deputy Grand Masters varies between jurisdictions and is at best imperfect. Our system attracted considerable interest, especially among delegates who are dissatisfied with procedures in their own jurisdictions.

4. Administrative procedures should be as simple as possible, and should not consume inordinate amounts of time.

5. The Constitution should be an enabling, not a disabling docu- ment.

The Grand Master found that attendance at district meetings which he attended was generally above average and in several districts was better than in recent years. He attributed the improve- ment to diligent plaiming and preparatory work by the District Deputy Grand Masters. The basic premise of his addresses was that "the problems that concern us all today are in large measure a result of Masons doing a less than thorough job of investigating and informing the petitioner, of educating the candidate, and of sup- porting and encouraging the newly raised Master Mason."

The agenda of the Grand Lodge contained a larger number of items than are usually encountered. Among the decisions was one to abandon the system of proportional representation which had prevailed for some years in Grand Lodge elections. A proposal to permit Master Masons to vote in Grand Lodge was defeated. A proposal to call the Grand Secretary, an appointed officer, R.W. instead of V.W. was enthusiastically applauded.

For the first time in the century and perhaps in the history of the Grand Lodge the elected "line" was broken by the death of the Grand Junior Warden.

The Grand Master reported that Freemasonry in Arizona is flourishing. Not only had membership increased but dispensations were granted to two new lodges. Several temples are being built and others have been repaired and cleaned. Of the 225 applica- cations received during the year 113 candidates were under 39. The Grand Master wrote a letter to each newly elected petitioner or affiliate welcoming him into Arizona Masonry.

In his address, the Grand Master expressed his appreciation to Mrs. Monical, wife of the incoming Grand Master for making the collars worn by the Grand Lodge officers. This was a Masonic project not encountered before by this Reviewer.

The general tenor of the Proceedings suggests that the Grand Lodge of Arizona is a particularly warm and friendly institution.

ARKANSAS — 1973

For several years, as these Reviews have reported, resolutions have been put forward which in effect would have provided for state-wide concurrent jurisdiction for lodges. A Special Committee, appointed last year, reported that eight U.S. Jurisdictions now are operating successfully with state-wide concurrent jurisdiction and supported the idea. The Committee report was not approved.

For many this Jurisdiction did not have a uniform ritual for the second section of the M.M. Degree. As a consequence lodges have attempted to give the lesson in various ways. The Grand Lodge finally adopted a ritual which will enable the lodges to portray the ritual in a uniform manner. A resolution advanced by 15 W.M.'s and 15 lodge Secretaries would have negatived the Grand Lodge decision. Two phrases from the Resolution copied here without comment reveal the tenor of their thoughts: "Whereas, the brethren of a degree team know how to create interest, some fun and relaxation ..." and "Whereas, when good acting and adlibbing are taken away, then there will be no interest on a degree team ..." Both the Board of Custodians and the Committee on work opposed the resolution which was defeated.

Since there has never been a comprehensive history of the Grand Lodge, the Grand Master appointed a Special Committee 6 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA lo write one. As the Grand Lodge has been active since 1838 the Grand Master wisely added: "If the Committee is unable to complete its work in one year, I recommend that the Committee be continued."

On their way to Terrace, the Grand Master and two Past District Deputy Grand Masters had a car accident which incapaci- tated them for about a month.

In his review of the year the Grand Master stressed the im- portance of maintaining our regulations unaltered. As he said, "If we are to maintain our strength and standing there must be a strict adherence to our usages and customs."

The British Columbia Masonic Foundation donated a total of $9,500.00 to eleven charitable organizations.

The District Deputy Grand Master of Atlin-Yukon District No. 11 reported that all the lodges in his District have had candi- dates and "are in better shape than a year ago." He explained that the distance between lodges does not allow for much visiting, "Whitehorse and Atlinto being the closest together and they are 120 miles apart."

CALIFORNIA — 1973

124th Annual Communication — October 8-12.

The general condition of Masonry in California is sound and harmonious. One problem causing concern is the age of the mem- bership: 20'^c is past the age of 70; 469f past 60; and 7434 % is past 50. Even more alarming is the information, gathered in a survey by the Grand Secretary, that only 1.38Tc of the membership is below the age of 30. These figures run counter to the experience of many Grand Lodges where reports indicate that more younger candidates FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 7

are coming forward. Can it be that California is paying for its salubrious climate which attracts retired Masons to the State. The Grand Secretary's report shows that since 1967 about 3,500 Masons have affiliated from other Jurisdictions. It would seem that panic is not indicated for in the same period the same report shows that 18,842 candidates were raised.

California Masons are particularly proud of their two Masonic Homes, in Union City and Covina. When an endowment pro- gramme for the Homes was conceived and initiated, it was hoped that one day they could be operated without assistance from the Grand Lodge. While the fund has not yet reached such proportions, the year saw a giant step forward when, for the first time, contri- butions exceeded one million dollars. The total endowment now stands at about thirty million.

The Grand Lodge has a Committee on Commercialism to guard against plans and activities offensive to the Masonic Law. Relatively few complaints were brought to the attention of the Grand Master during the year. The Grand Master has asked the Committee to redraft the rules and regulations accenting the posi- tive aspects of Masonry rather than the "Thou shalt not."

A radio club, operating under the name International Masonic Radio Network, Inc., caused some concern. The body solicited members from California Masons. Among the problems was a racial prohibition in its membership. The Grand Master was forced to put the matter in the hands of an outstanding attorney know- ledgeable in patent and copyright law. All problems were solved.

The year was active as the Grand Lodge was host to the Rocky Mountain Masonic Conference involving the States of Nevada, Montana, Utah and Wyoming. In addition the Grand Lodge met in ten Special Communications. Seven were held to lay cornerstones of schools. On two occasions more than one stone was laid on the same day. The old custom of laying cornerstones flourishes in Colorado.

A proposal to amend the Constitution to permit the Grand Lodge to meet in a place other than Denver was defeated.

The Grand Lodge suffered the loss of three Past Grand Masters and the Junior Grand Steward during the year. The Grand 8 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA

East remains strong, however, with 21 Past Grand Masters on the roll.

Since 1967 the Grand Lodge has supported a scholarship pro- gramme, considered by the Grand Master to be "one of the out- standing successes of this Grand Lodge." The monies, provided from the Benevolent Fund amounted to $114,978 in 1972. Students, totalling 20, were selected on the recommendation of high school counsellors, Masters of local lodges and other knowledgeable per- sons. All applications must be supported by a Master of a lodge. Scholarships can be held for four years and must be used for higher education in Colorado.

M.W. Bro. W. K. Bailey and M.W. Bro. E. G. Dixon were the first distinguished guests introduced at the Annual Communication.

The Grand Master suggested that the rules regarding the minimum suitable proficiency to be demonstrated by a candidate should include the following:

"A personal knowledge of the work of the Masonic Charity Foundation of Connecticut. For this purpose, no Brother may be advanced to the degree of Master Mason until he shall have visited the Masonic Home and Hospital at Willingford. The Master of the Lodge shall ensure that each new Brother is escorted on such a visit, and that the fact thereof is duly recorded on a form pro- vided for that purpose at the Home and Hospital."

The Committee on Rules and Regulations did not support the proposal and the Grand Lodge supported the Committee.

The Committee on Delinquency and Finances of Lodges re- ported that although the income of the lodges went up expenses went down. The trend reflected more efficient operation of lodges.

The Custodians of the Work met on numerous occasions during the year. One of the projects the Grand Master directed them to undertake was a revision of "the Table Lodge Ritual." They completed the task and the ritual was reprinted "in time for

all Table Lodges held during . . . December and January and was well accepted by the Craft." Evidently Table Lodges take a promi- nent place in Freemasonry in Connecticut. FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 9

These Reviews have not listed a Semi-annual Communication at the head of the page, although the Grand Lodge did meet on March 24. The explanation is that the Communication is a recent innovation, the one in March being the fifth. The original purpose of this Communication was to afford members of the Grand Lodge an opportunity to discuss problems which would be pre- sented at the Annual Communication. The authority of the Semi- annual Communication has been extended to the point where first readings are possible. However, no final action on any proposal may be taken.

The Grand Master had mixed feelings on the matter as the worth has been debated. In order to open a full discussion the Grand Master proposed an amendment to the Code that the Semi- annual Communication be discontinued thereby bringing the problem to the 1974 Annual Communication.

In fact, the Grand Lodge did hold Semi-annual Communi- cations in the 19th century but they were discontinued for some reason unknown at this time.

Although the Grand Lodge had a gain in membership after small losses in three recent years. All the losses of any account are in one district whereas the other districts are showing a general advance and one, indeed, great gains. The Grand Master sug- gested the appointment of a Committee or Commission to study the problem. He also advanced some reasons, one being the flight of the residents of Wilmington to the suburbs. "Masonry", he said,

"not only has been slow to recognize the change . . but slow to react as well. We have been unwilling to encourage the develop- ment of lodges in the suburbs to take care of the migration". One can realize some of the factors when we are told that the oldest lodge in Wilmington has worked for more than 200 years and the Temple there is 102 years old.

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA — 1972

162nd Annual Report Annual Communication — December 20.

Lodges, 47. Membership, 15,931. Loss, 670. 10 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA

The Grand Master, M.W. Bro. Engleburg died on February 17, in the prime of life, causing a great loss in the Jurisdiction. A Special Communication was called on June 15 to eliminate some areas of doubt in the Masonic Code that existed pertaining to the procedure for the succession to the office of Grand Master. A new section was unanimously adopted which provided that when a Grand Master becomes unable to serve or moves from the Juris- diction the Deputy Grand Master carries out all the duties as Acting Grand Master. On the death of the Grand Master, however, the Deputy Grand Master becomes Grand Master without further installation. Consequently, M.W. Bro. Kenyon became Grand Master on June 15.

In the Review for last year permission for Master Masons in the Embassy of Australia, to form a Masonic Club to be known as "The Boomerang Fidelity Club" was reported. The list of dispensa- tions by the Grand Master shows that the club was formed and tells something of its activities for one dispensation runs "To lodges to have the Boomerang Club of Masons of the Australian Embassy confer degrees according to the Australian Ritual, instruction to be given according to the District of Columbia Ritual."

In another ruling the Grand Master would not permit the head of "one of the Bodies that predicates its membership on Masonic affiliation" to solicit for a fund-raising event by using a professional group for the purpose.

ENGLAND — 1973

Quarterly Communications — March 14, June 13, September 12, December 12.

Annual Investiture — April 26.

Grand Master H.R.H. The Duke of Kent, G.C.M.G., G.C.V.O., A.D.C. Grand Secretary — R.W. Bro. James W. Stubbs, P.G.W.

During the year the M.W. The Grand Master granted 70 warrants for new lodges. Most of these were in England and Wales. One, named Clarenville No. 8498 was in Clarenville, Newfound- land. Another, Eureka No. 8515, was warranted in Georgetown, Guyana. In addition, a Lodge of Research No. 8525 was estab- lished in Guyana. Three were warranted in South Africa. At the end of 1972, there were 7,614 lodges on the Grand Register. During the year, 17,997 Grand Lodge Certificates were issued.

However, as the Grand Master said at the Annual Investiture: "The health of Freemasonry cannot of course be measured purely in terms of the numbers of new Lodges formed or of new members accepted into the Craft. We are not, after all, a chain store intent FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 11 on opening new branches and increasing our turnover! What matters is that the great Masonic precepts should continue to be upheld, and that individual Masons should never cease to honour their obligations to the Craft as a whole, to one another, and to their fellow men and women generally."

The Board of Benevolence, believing that the rules governing qualification to submit a petition for relief, based almost solely on length of membership, were unsatisfactory proposed some changes. The regulations were liberalized to include, for example, the removal of the required five years of membership in a regular lodge before application could be made. In addition, the Board is now permitted to grant relief to the indigent widow or for the in- digent child or children under the age of 21 years of a deceased Brother who would at the time of his death have qualified to receive relief. In extreme cases an applicant may have left Masonry (for some good reasons) 20 years before the petition is presented. As the Vice-Chairman of the Board said, the new regu- lations will require Lodge Almoners to exercise a considerable amount of research into past members of their lodges. The Board is satisfied that, whatever the increase may be, there are ample funds to meet all contingencies.

The general funds of the Grand Lodge are not in quite such a satisfactory condition. The freeze on rents prevented the Grand Lodge from increasing the rent for lodges meeting in Freemasons' Hall. Since expenses were increasing without any increased revenue coming in a new scale of rates for registration of initiates and affiliates was passed and annual dues in respect of each member were increased.

This is our first Review of the Grand Lodge of Finland and since the only English translation in the Proceedings consisted of one page, containing the information given above, we can do little but say "Welcome."

The Proceedings did include an English insert "A concise History of Freemasonry in Finland." This work tells us that the Grand Lodge was established in 1924, largely through the en- couragement of the Grand Lodge of New York. The Grand Lodge suffered for many years from anti-Masonic agitation. In 1945 membership was down to 111 members. The rise has been steady since. 12 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA

Only two warranted lodges were not represented at the Annual Communication. During the year two dispensations for new lodges were granted. The second, named Jose Marti y Perez U.D., is now the fourth Spanish speaking lodge active in Florida.

The Grand Master gave a ruling which, one would hope, should apply in any Jurisdiction. The question was: "Should the names of past masters suspended for N.P.D. be dropped from the list of past masters and their pictures removed from the lodge room? The Grand Master ruled that the names and pictures should remain. This looks like the correct answer to a question which should not have been asked in the first place.

One secretary asked if an advertisement of a lodge meeting could include the words "Welcomes visiting Brothers." The Grand Master ruled against inclusion "as visitation is not a matter of absolute right" and the presence of the words might create some problems to a lodge should a visitor not be admitted because of some objection by one of its members.

The list of 15 cornerstones laid included a great variety of buildings in addition to lodge temples of which there were seven. A fire station, courthouse, legislative wings of the Capitol Building in Tallahassee, Exceptional School Building, Tallahassee Temple Israel School, a new police complex, and Scottish Rite Temple, Tampa, made up the list.

The Grand Master ruled that the Rome-area Historical Com- mission could use the name of Cherokee Lodge No. 66 in soliciting funds for the preservation of historical buildings and sites as the 1877 building of the Lodge was of historical importance. He pointed out that the solicitation was permitted as the funds were to be used strictly for the building itself and not for the Lodge. FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 13

The Educational and Historical Commission of the Grand Lodge published a book of poems by the late M.W. Bro. D. H. Woolstein (G.M. 1944). The Commission also published "The Mentors' Manual", a most useful work, and articles on the Bible by M.W. Bro. C. Cohen (G.M. 1962), in book form with the title "Book of Books".

Although the Grand Lodge stopped printing Reviews in the annual Proceedings, many extracts, quotations and brief reviews are printed in the "Masonic Messenger of Georgia" the official monthly publication of the Grand Lodge.

Many Grand Lodges, on opening, present flags with a more or less elaborate ceremony. On this occasion, the flags of the United States, the State of Idaho and Canada were presented. The Grand Marshal paid a fine tribute to the qualities of Canadians and even remarked on the fact that Alexander Mackenzie had crossed the continent from east to west eleven years before the Americans Lewis and Clark. "To complete the tribute, Brother Floyd Brown of Lodge No. 1, sang O Canada".

The Grand Master in 1972 inaugurated a Host and Co-Host programme. Two lodges combined to act as hosts to the Grand Master enabling him to visit 42 lodges in his year in office. His successor followed the plan. As a result, the two Grand Masters visited every lodge in the two year period. Some of these meetings saw an attendance far beyond what might have been expected. Travel to and from most of the visitations was done by air.

One paragraph in the Grand Master's Address revealed a development in taxing methods not noticed before by this Reviewer. "As a result of the action taken by the Attorney General's Office, State Tax Commission and the County Assessors concerning the non-exempt status of Elks Lodges and affidavits and notices which were sent to each of our Lodges, it was necessary for each Masonic Lodge to certify to the local County Assessor that they do not discriminate as to membership on the basis of race in any manner." The Grand Master sent a reminder to each lodge to file the necessary affidavits.

Place names can be fascinating. The Grand Master attended a Stated Communication of Kooskia Lodge No. 87 and discussed 14 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA their request to change their place of meeting from Kamiah to Kooskia.

In 1972 the Grand Lodge made it possible for mature young men below the age of 21 to apply for initiation. The Grand Master reported that the Grand Lodge of North Dakota was first, followed by the Grand Lodges of Nebraska and Wyoming.

M.W. Bro. Paul R. Stephens (G.M. 1959-60), the Grand Secretary, took over the duty of writing the Correspondence Report of Illinois following the death of M.W. Bro. E. L. Lawrence (G.M. 1937-38) who had served for 17 years. Readers of these Reviews may recall that in 1973 we reported that ill health had prevented him from attending his 58th consecutive Annual Communication. However, he did send a tape recorded message to be played at the session. As long ago as 1961 this Reviewer commented on the "excellent review of sixty-two Grand Jurisdictions" written by M.W. Bro. Lawrence. The high quality stood up through the years.

In his Review of our Proceedings for 1972, M.W. Bro. Stephens pointed out a fact which had hitherto escaped this Reviewer. Ours is the only Grand Lodge in North America which meets in July.

An $800,000.00 addition to the Masonic Home at Sullivan was completed. The Illinois Masonic Childrens Home continues to provide outstanding care for the children housed there.

Real estate taxes against Masonic Temples continue to pose a problem for many lodges and temple associations throughout the State. At least one Masonic Temple in the Chicago area was sold to settle a tax bill of over $30,000.00, thus displacing three lodges meeting there.

The Board of General Purposes raised the question of having only one Annual Communication in the place of the two Com- munications generally held. The reasons for the proposal were the rising cost of living, the high cost of travel and accommodation, and "protracted absence from station." The half-yearly Communi- cation usually saw little important business and that could be de- ferred. The Regional Grand Masters all favoured the proposal.

Lodge Anchor and Hope No. 1 (G.R.L) completed 200 years of "a happy and proud Masonic history in 1973." Owing to the great distances in India, the Grand Master believed that the anniversary should be celebrated in the various regions.

The Grand Lodge instituted an endowment fund from which the Grand Master may make suitable grants for laudable causes at his discretion. Lodges and Brethren have been exhorted to con- tribute at the rate of Rs. 200.00 per month.

The Board deposited Rs. 20,000 with the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, and in future a sum of Rs. 10,000 will be paid annually to the Institute for the establishment of an India Masonic Fellow.

In his address the Grand Master said that in his four years in office he had visited most of the lodges in the Northern, Western, and Southern regions and a good many in the Eastern. Wherever he went he "emphasized that in addition to the usual Masonic benevolence of which we are justly proud, Brethren and Lodges should undertake suitable Community Service Projects for and on behalf of the Freemasons. We are a developing country. While it cannot be denied that we have made much progress in all directions in the last twenty-five years, it has to be regretfully admitted that we have still serious problems of poverty, ill-health and ignorance. Our people need help, assistance, and encouragement. Let us re- member the 'peculiar moment' in the First Degree when we promised to contribute for charity to the utmost of our power and ability."

The Jurisprudence Committee brought in a lengthy report of seven pages revising the General Regulations to bring all laws into conformity with the policy of state-wide concurrent jurisdiction adopted in 1972. 16 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA

A resolution to lower the minimum age of petitioners from 21 to 18 was indefinitely postponed with one dissenting vote. The Committee on Jurisprudence gave a clear statement of the reason for their recommendation of postponement.

"It is the unanimous opinion of your committee that the action of the states in amending the Constitution of the United States so as to reduce the minimum age for voting from 21 to 18 was done hastily and without mature reflection—obviously an effort on the part of political parties to bid for the favor of young people by giving them the right to vote before the 1972 general elections.

"Freemasonry should never move with haste. Our Craft has maintained its position of stability throughout the world because it has not responded to the whims of the hour, content to wait until men have had an opportunity to think and act with deliberation. Let it never be said that our Lodges were stampeded into boarding a 'bandwagon' because of ill-advised efforts of other organizations to change those practices that have endured the test of time and served us well.

"Inasmuch as the subject is a highly controversial one, your committee believes that it should not be permitted to drive a wedge into an otherwise harmonious annual communication."

The Ritual Committee considered some far-reaching changes in the Ritual proposed by the Grand Master but recommended that they be given more time to study the problem. They pointed out that the proposed changes would also have to be studied by the Jurisprudence Committee to see that they conform to the ancient usage of the Craft.

The Jurisdiction according to the Committee on Lodges Chartered and Under Dispensation, underwent some major re- organization. Ten lodges consolidated as five and three surrendered their charters. Iowa with a population of 2,825,000 increased only 2.4 percent between 1960 and 1970. There are great changes in the population centres although the population is still about 42 percent rural. Four Des Moines Lodges have well over 1,000 members while the five smallest have between 19 and 22,

The Grand Lodge laid five cornerstones. The first was for a seven storey low-rent apartment complex. The others were for FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 17

new Masonic Temples. The first ceremony suggests a question. What is the highest building for which the cornerstone has been laid under Masonic auspices? The second ceremony is believed to have been the first of its kind in Iowa, taking place after nightfall. "The entire front of the Temple was flooded with spotlights" which permitted the large audience which overflowed into the street to view the ceremony. The reports make it clear that these were all festive occasions and rightly so.

The Grand Lodge continues to publish the "Grand Lodge Bulletin" which is sent to any Iowa Mason who requests it. It is printed each month except July and August. In addition, as a means of direct communication between the Grand Master and the Craft, the Grand Secretary sent every Iowa Mason three issues of the "Masonic Encounter".

IRELAND — 1972

Annual Report of the Grand Secretary. Grand Master — M.W. Bro. Rt. Hon. The Earl of Donoughmore

Last year the Report arrived a few days before our Annual Communication. Consequently, we were unable to include the Review for the year. This was particularly unfortunate as there is a sincere interest in the activities of that greatly troubled and heroic Jurisdiction in ours.

The events of the year 1972, inevitably, were over-shadowed by the troubles in Northern Ireland. More than half the Brethren live north of the border. Despite the bombings of halls and the dangers of the streets after dark, subscriptions to the Grand Lodge Charities have kept up, evincing the spirit and success of the members.

The Grand Lodge met in four Stated Quarterly Communica- tions. The March Communication was held in Waterford, the October in Newtownards, Co. Down, ten miles east of Belfast, the June and December in Dublin.

The Grand Lodge authorized the formation of two new Pro- vincial Grand Lodges in Ghana and Nigeria respectively.

Unfortunately it was found advisable to close the Girls' School. The Boys' School is continuing and the numbers are keeping up.

The Provincial Grand Master of Antrim gave a graphic account of Masonic activity in Belfast.

"Regretfully, I have to record that the year 1972 has seen no improvement in the disturbed conditions in Belfast and as a result 18 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA the Order has been confronted with many difficulties and some- times unsettling experiences. The Provincial Hall in Rosemary Street suffered bomb damage for the second time, though for- tunately it was not so extensive as on the previous occasion; Crumlin Road Hall was extensively damaged when an adjoining garage and Filling Station were destroyed by explosion and fire; and Arthur Square Hall sustained blast damage to windows and walls following a near-by explosion. Happily, in none of these inci- dents was there any personal injury. In addition, meetings at Arthur Square Hall had to be adjourned on one occasion follow- ing telephoned warnings that the building would be destroyed if the Hall was not cleared.

"Having met and overcome the problems raised by the dis- turbances in the previous two years, the Lodges in the City, I am happy to say, have again shown their determination to continue their activities. At Crumlin Road, for instance, where it seemed at first sight that a considerable interruption in Lodge Meetings must ensue, first-aid repairs to the rooms were quickly effected and only one of the two dozen lodges meeting there felt it desirable to seek accommodation outside the City, and this Lodge is expected to return after more permanent repairs have been completed. At Rosemary Street and Arthur Square a further, but small, number of Lodges have decided to meet elsewhere, though one Arthur Square Lodge which sought the hospitaHty of a country Hall in 1971 now intends to return to the City.

"Inevitably, attendances at Lodge meetings have fallen—some moderately, some considerably and one to as low as eight to ten. While in this last case there is a feeling it may be necessary to wind up the Lodge and return the Warrant, the general attitude is that come what may the Lodges will continue. The early cessation of public transport at night and the restrictions on car parking are factors which undoubtedly contribute to the smaller attendances, especially at Festive Boards and it is now very much the exception for Brethren to gather for Refreshments after Lodge Meetings . . .

"In the other centres of Masonry outside Belfast, it is a great pleasure to report that Lodges hold their Meetings and Festive Boards very much as in normal times, and we must all trust that in the year that lies ahead more settled conditions will return, not only for Masonry but for all aspects of our community's life.

"I should add that the Provincial Grand Lodge itself has not been unaffected by the disturbed conditions. During the year we deemed it advisable to hold all our Communications at country centres and this extension of our customary itinerary was warmly welcomed by the country Brethren who showed their appreciation in large attendances."

The Provincial Grand Master of Londonderry and Donegal wrote with the same spirit. FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 19

"I am pleased to report that the Masonic Province of London- derry and Donegal has enjoyed another year of good fellowship and progress.

"The usual four Stated Communications were held—two in Londonderry, one in Coleraine and one in Moneymore. The Cole- raine and Moneymore meetings were exceptionally well attended and, despite the sorrowful state of our city, the two Londonderry meetings attracted a fair number of Brethren, I appreciate the warm welcome given to P.G. Lodge by the Brethren of Money- more.

"Perhaps the most unsung in the organisation are the ordinary members of the subordinate Lodges. The efforts of the Lodge Officers are praiseworthy, but it is the ordinary Brethren who form the backbone of the Order and I am most impressed that, in these most difficult times, they pursue their Masonic careers with un- flagging interest and enthusiasm. The sympathy I feel for those five Lodges whose Halls have been either damaged or completely destroyed by terrorists is more than matched by my admiration for the spirit of their members who carry on the good work, un- daunted, and determined that the soul of the Order shall not be affected by any attacks on its outward trappings."

ISRAEL — 1973

Four Quarterly Communications and Annual Installation.

Grand Master, 1972-73 — M.W. Bro. Yeuda Treivish Grand Master, 1973-74 — M.W. Bro. Felix Klug

Lodges, 56.

At his Installation, M.W. Bro. Y. Treivish said:

"I would like to organise a group of lecturers who will visit our lodges in all parts of the country and bring the Masonic principles and doctrine to all brethren. The lecturers will be formed in a group, appointed or elected, who will be guided and instructed by the team of instructors of Gazit Lodge. These lecturers will have an additional task of helping to provide each district with an organised Masonic library and reading room, which could also be used for lectures. Grand Lodge will encourage devoted brethren to set up such libraries.

"I would like every town and settlement, in which a Masonic Lodge is in existence, to have its own Masonic Temple worthy of the cause. It is therefore desireable to encourage the brethren in each town to do their utmost to acquire a building for this purpose. Grand Lodge will encourage brethren to take upon themselves this important task . . . 20 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA

"I further want to encourage our Arab and Druze brethren to extend their Masonic activities, and I would be happy if we succeed in establishing a Masonic Lodge in Usaphia which could be used as a lodge for the various Druze villages on Mount Carmel and in the Gallil district. It would also give me great pleasure should devoted brethren be found who would be willing to take upon themselves the task, of establishing a Masonic Lodge in Nazareth."

In conclusion, he expressed the hope that peace might be established between Israel and her neighbours.

An event unique in the history of Freemasonry in Israel occurred when Bro. S. Otu, the Ambassador from Ghana, was installed as W.M. of Sharon Lodge in the presence of the Grand Master and several Past Grand Masters.

The records of the Grand Lodge are printed in a bi-monthly publication "Haboneh Hahofshi—The Freemason." The July, 1973, issue listed the lodges in the Jurisdiction with place, date of in- auguration, and the language used. The languages are, with the number of lodges using them in brackets, as follows: Hebrew (33), French-Hebrew (2), French (2), English (6), Arabic-Hebrew (1), Arabic (3), German (7), Roumanian (1), Spanish (1).

An agreement has been signed with a contractor to erect a two story Masonic Temple to replace the single story one in Jerusalem.

JAPAN — 1973

16th Annual Communication — March 16-17.

Grand Master, 1972-73 — M.W. Bro. F. S. Kashiwagi Grand Master, 1973-74 — M.W. Bro. C. P. Weatherman

Lodges, 20. Membership, 4,786. Gain, 22.

Every lodge in the Jurisdiction was well-represented at the Annual Communication.

The Master of Hokkaido Lodge No. 17 in replying to the Grand Master's address of welcome spoke of the hope that more Japanese would apply for membership. The activity of the Grand Lodge in translating the ritual into the currently used Japanese language has ensured a better knowledge of Masonry and its meaning by Japanese Brethren. The Proceedings now contain several pages in Japanese characters, presumably translations are given in the English sections. Apparently the Japanese do not have characters for such words as "Most Worshipful", "Fraternity", and FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 21

«Jrand Lodge". At least, these words stand out on the Japanese pages.

One lodge, Kokusai Lodge No. 15, showed great ingenuity in combining two residential buildings into a practical and com- fortable lodge hall, in Fussa.

KANSAS — 1973

117th Annual Communication — March 9-10.

Grand Master, 1972-73 — M.W. Bro. R. D. Kelsey Grand Master, 1973-74 — M.W. Bro. J. F. Williamson

Lodges, 412. Membership, 81,675. Loss, 1,784.

Despite the net loss of members during the year the condition of Masonry in Kansas is good. Several lodges, both large city and small country lodges, have shown gains. Activity is increasing and attendance is improving in all lodges visited by the Grand Master.

The Kansas Masonic Foundation, Inc. reported an active year. A general mailing to the Craft, within six weeks, produced $25,000, from 3,000 Brethren, pledged by the Foundation to sup- port the endowment of a chair at the Kansas University Medical Center in the field of cancer. The year also saw the graduation of the first scholarship loan recipient.

The Grand Master made it his purpose during the year to support the Foundation "to bring a closer relationship and under- standing between the Foundation and Grand Lodge."

At the same time Masonic benevolence was not forgotten. As the Grand Master said:

"Charity is a basic ingredient of Masonry. Over the past several years we have become lax in this area of Masonry. For the second year in a row we have stressed the need for more active charity programs in the local lodge. The need is there, if we will but look for it and meet it when we do find it.

"Charity at the Grand Lodge level is equally important. Our goal for the year has been, not to see how little we could spend, or how much we could spend, but to meet the needs of those who come to our attention and to assist those whose need is beyond the scope that can be handled by the local lodge.

"This year we have broken v/ith 'tradition', for I sincerely feel that there can be no tradition as far as charity is concerned. Each case must be decided according to the needs and administered according to our resources. We have extended Grand Lodge relief 22 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA to individuals on a continuing basis, to individuals in a lump sum and to our brethren in other Grand Jurisdictions who have faced disaster. We gave to South Dakota and the Philippines following floods and to Nicaragua after their earthquake."

KENTUCKY — 1972

173rd Annual Communication — October 17-19.

Grand Master, 1971-72 — M.W. Bro. R. C. Wilder Grand Master, 1972-73 — M.W. Bro. R. M. Wilhite, Jr.

At the close of the Annual Communication the microfilming of all annual returns dating back 102 years was to begin. One copy will be used in the office and the duplicate will be stored in a separate place for safety.

The Committee on College Scholarships reported that during the year five students received assistance from the Fund, at a cost of $1,622.00 for the year. Students in receipt of scholarships attend institutions of college level. The Fund is administered by the Masonic Home Board.

The incoming Grand Master expressed the view that the greatest need for the growth of the Fraternity is through the use of Masonic education and assured his hearers that the Grand Lodge Educational Conferences would be continued and encouraged.

LOUISIANA — 1973

162nd Annual Communication — February 5-6.

Grand Master, 1972-73 — M.W. Bro. H. L. Allen Grand Master, 1973-74 — M.W. Bro. N. H. McClamroch, Jr.

Lodges, 289. Membership, 49,128. Loss, 685.

The Grand Master's project for the year was to raise money to build a chapel at the Masonic Home for Children in Alexandria. The goal was $100,000 but thanks to the dedication and generosity of the Masons of Louisiana $125,000 was raised in eleven months. The cornerstone was laid and the building was nearing completion. The Home ended the year with 53 children, a few less than the year before.

The Masonic Home Educational Foundation helped 42 stu- dents at various post-secondary educational institutions. The largest group were in education but several were in medicine and law. FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 23

A resolution to stop donating the annual surplus from the headquarters of the Grand Lodge, amounting to over $50,000 a year, to the Home for Children and to cumulate the funds with a view to setting some facility for old people was defeated.

A further motion to discontinue the "Louisiana Freemason" was also defeated.

MAINE — 1973

154th Annual Communication — May 1-2.

Grand Master, 1970-72 — M.W. Bro. R. L White Grand Master, 1972-74 — M.W. Bro. C. R. Glassmire

Lodges, 206 Membership, 43,131. Loss, 477.

The Grand Master spoke at five Anniversary Celebrations but was distressed that six other lodges had 100-year Anniversaries and two had 150th Anniversaries but did not hold celebrations. This year will see five 150th Anniversaries and three 100th.

There is much activity in the Jurisdiction. Three new temples have been dedicated and another is almost completed. In one county, York, almost every lodge has built a new temple in the past few years.

Since there are over 3,000 Masonic or Masonically oriented meetings held within the State each year the Grand Lodge attempted to provide a clearing house for all Masonic dates. It is hoped that meetings of greater than usual importance can avoid major conflicts. As the Grand Master said "it was most distressing to speak at a District Meeting in Machias and find that . . . four other meetings were being held in the general vicinity the same night."

The Grand Master had some good things to say about the office of District Deputy Grand Master which he called the most important in Grand Lodge. He thought that the office of Past D.D.G.M. had never been properly defined. "Occasionally" he said "a man is appointed a District Deputy Grand Master and either is unable to serve because of health reasons or who, because he does a poor job, is asked to resign." In Maine there are no regu- lations. "A man theoretically achieves the title of Right Worshipful the day he is installed and keeps it for life even though he may do a very poor job or even resign the day following his instal- lation." The Grand Master recommended that in Maine, when a D.D.G.M. had served for two years "with a record of faithful and effective service" he should be recognized as a P.D.D.G.M. with the "honorary title" of R.W.

The Grand Master added that up to 1973, in Pennsylvania, a D.D.G.M. had to serve for ten years before becoming eligible to 24 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA

receive the title P.D.D.G.M. In 1973 the time was reduced to five years.

M.W. Bro. R. J. Pollard presented his 28th Annual report as Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Correspondence. As usual his reviews are comprehensive and interesting. This year, in his foreword, he paid tribute to M.W. Bro. Harry S. Truman, P.G.M. of Missouri.

The major matter of discussion at the Semi-annual Communi- cation was the disposal of the surplus land on which the Masonic home stands. The property which amounts to 425 acres is far too valuable for the purpose for which it is now used. The Home, called Bonnie Blink, houses 127 guests (96 women and 31 men). Of these 57 are in the Infirmary. The budget for the year is slightly under $800,000.00. Costs have increased 210% in thirteen years and are climbing. Developers began coming forward with offers for the land not required by the Home. The Grand Lodge authorized the Board of Trustees to act as they saw fit in the best interests of the Fraternity. They reported at the Annual Communi- cation that they had sold 350 acres, leaving 75 for the Home, for $12,500,000.00.

The Report of the Grand Lecturer included the Report of "the Committee on Ritualistic Work in the English and German languages." One officer of the Grand Lodge is "Deputy Grand Lecturer at large in the German Language." Actually, the Lodge of Instruction in the German Language (nine schools were held) was not as well attended as were the other Lodges of Instruction. The only lodge on the roll which would likely work in German appears to be Germania Lodge No. 160, chartered in 1872.

M.W. Bro. W. K. Bailey brought greetings from our Grand Lodge.

The sessions of Grand Lodge were held, for the second time, in the new Masonic Memorial Temple, of which the Brethren are justifiably most proud.

The Grand Master when visiting the lodges in Northern Manitoba found them in a healthy condition and marvelled at the fellowship and true Masonic spirit displayed by the Brethren of the lodges where distance and cost of travel prevent them from making inter-lodge visitations.

The Grand Master accepted an invitation from the Knights of Columbus to attend their indoor sports meeting. Good relations continue to exist between the two fraternal bodies.

The Grand Lodge will celebrate its centennial in 1975. The Committee involved reported that Prince Rupert Lodge players are rehearsing a play written especially for the occasion, which they hope to present throughout the Province. They also hope to present a Grand Lodge flag, to be designed by the proper author- ities.

The Committee on the Condition of Freemasonry, among other matters, reported that they had received a request from St. John's Lodge No. 4 for permission to publish ten Masonic educa- tional speeches yearly, using the name "Institution for the Advance- ment of Masonic Arts and Sciences." The Committee approved and several of these educational brochures are now in circulation. This would appear to be a most ambitious project for a single lodge to undertake.

The developing highway pattern running North and South suggests that the rural districts, based on an earlier East-West pattern, might well be re-distributed.

M.W. Bro. H. B. Donnelly (G.M. 1947) felt obliged to retire as Grand Librarian, after 20 years service in the office.

In his Report on Foreign Relations, M.W. Bro. T. S. Roy said that a request for recognition had been received from the Grana Lodge of the State of Baja California, Mexico. He told something of the organization of Freemasonry in that country'. For the most part, it is on a state basis as in the United States. There are 31 states and 20 have Grand Lodges. There is a Masonic Confedera- tion of Regular Lodges of the United States of Mexico. Inasmuch as all the State Grand Lodges belong to this Confederation, all are equally regular. Massachusetts recognizes ten. If asked why not all, the answer is that they have never asked for recognition. According to Masonic protocol, the younger Grand Lodge must take the initiative. Our 1973 Proceedings (pages 245, 248, and 251) show that we do not list any Grand Lodge in Mexico, except, of course, Mexico (York), which is not one of the State Grand Lodges.

As has been written before in these Reviews, when any lodge in Massachusetts celebrates a special anniversary, a history of the lodge is included in the Proceedings of Grand Lodge. This custom not only explains why the Proceedings run to almost 700 pages but also provides a continuing history of Freemasonry in Massachusetts. In the year under review, Fourth Estate Lodge, Boston, celebrated its Fiftieth Anniversary. The history included a separate account entitled Boston Newspaper Masonic Clubs. No fewer than five such clubs exist or have existed. One, the Hour Glass Club, com- posed of Masonic employees of the Boston Globe, is in its 48th year and has a roster of 85 members. Although there is no club at the Christian Science Monitor, staff members have taken a leading part in the work of Fourth Estate Lodge. New membership ratios over the years indicate a major percentage from the Monitor. In the last 25 years 14 have served as W.M.

Harvard Lodge also celebrated its Fiftieth Anniversary. One of the original promoters of the lodge was the distinguished jurist R.W. Bro. Roscoe Pound. All but four of the Grand Lodge offices have been filled at some time by a member of the Harvard Lodge. The exceptions are Junior Grand Warden. Grand Standard Bearer, Grand Organist and Grand Tyler. Four Members have been elected Grand Master. The record is notable as there have been only 18 Grand Masters since 1922.

Attendance at the Quarterly Communications has been so great that many members of Grand Lodge could not find places in Ionic Hall, the meeting place in the Boston Temple. A public address system, installed in other halls did not permit brethren to see the work of the Grand Lodge officers or see the many dis- tinguished guests. Now Grand Lodge has installed a closed-circuit video system.

Our M.W. Bro. Bailey was chosen as one of the two guests invited to speak at the Stated Communication. FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 27

In his address the Grand Master reported that not only had membership increased but that attendance at lodge meetings also showed a marked improvement. Since his Jurisdiction is small he was able to report on each lodge individually. On his return from Monterrey Lodge No. 13, the Grand Master was hijacked and "complete with wounded hijackers and a planeload of passengers" enjoyed the dubious pleasure of visiting another country free of charge.

The Grand Master recommended that the Education Com- mittee be charged with formulating a plan and mechanism re- quiring candidates, before receiving their Master Mason's certifi- cate, to prepare a paper reflecting the Brother's philosophical pro- gress. This work would be required in addition to the regular proficiency examination.

The Committee for Work and Ritual was faced with the problem of producing a ritualistically true, and at the same time linguistically acceptable, German translation of the York Ritual for the use of Alexander von Humboldt Lodge. The basis of the text was a German York Ritual used before by the Grand Lodge of Guatemala.

The Grand Master under the head of Rulings and Decisions stated that there were none. The question of bingo did come up and the Grand Master flatly declared: "We're not going to play bingo or have gambling in any other way in our Masonic Temples or Lodges until such time as legislation is properly presented at a communication and our law changed. Therefore, it's not a ruling, it's not a decision, the law was already there."

Our M.W. Bro. Bailey when invited to address the Annual Communication reminded his hearers of the close ties between our Grand Lodge and that of Michigan. The association goes back to 28 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA

1855 when we called on the M.W. Grand Master of Michigan to install our first Grand Master, M.W. Bro. William Mercer Wilson.

The incoming Grand Master hails from Saginaw. His bio- graphy records that he is "a partially retired soft drink manu- facturer" who "gains relaxation by making unusual ceramic crea- tions and Christmas tree farming." Saginaw has provided three Grand Masters. One M.W. Bro. D. H. Hesse, Grand Master in 1941, is still considered to be one of Michigan's great engravers of precious metals.

The biography of M.W. Bro. Adams provided a brief but in- teresting history of Freemasonry in Saginaw. The roots go back to 1856 when two lodges had their genesis. One originally named Germania No. 79, now renamed Pioneer, actually had a German warrant and began to function under that authority. Both lodges received their Michigan charters at the same time.

Many lodges complied with the suggestion of the Grand Master that each Masonic temple erect a lighted flagpole on which the U.S. flag could be flown when the building is in use.

In his Message the Grand Master dealt with a matter which would not be discussed in our Grand Lodge or constituent lodges. He urged every Mason to "continue as an individual citizen, to fight against the creeping power of parochial schools to move in on" the free public school system.

The Fraternal Correspondence Committee, which corresponds to our Committee on Fraternal Relations, recommended the recog- nition of the Grand Lodge of Paraguay. The full and correct name is Gran Logia Simbolica del Paraguay.

The Committee on Masonic Research and Education worked on many projects. The "Table Lodge", referred to in these Reviews last year, was presented in full as the last segment of each Area Conference. A significant number of lodges "used and presented a 'Table Lodge' as a special event during the year."

Three years ago the Committee established a speakers' bureau. The list of available speakers has been up-dated and many topics added. FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 29

The Committee on Publishing the "Minnesota Mason" re- ported that they had published nine numbers of eight pages each. The circulation is about 62,000. The publication costs $25,500.00 a year to produce. At a cost of a little over four cents a copy or something under 40 cents a year the Committee and Editor have supplied 72 pages of interesting information, news and photos about Masons and Masonry.

Some lodges had an extremely busy year. Horn Lake Lodge No. 617, with 241 members conferred 102 degrees, Gulfport Lodge No. 422, with 592 members, conferred 77 and Pascagoula Lodge No. 419, with 763 members, conferred 76. Thus it would appear that the three lodges had 85 candidates between them.

The Jurisdiction acted as host to the Southeastern Masonic Conference. Attendance, from nine states, was good. The topics dealt with included Masonic work, benevolence, education and history.

The Masonic Home for children at Meridian is of fine con- struction and equipped with best furnishings and facilities with an abundance of playground and a good gymnasium. It can house 65 children but during the year had only 23. The Grand Master feared that somewhere in the State there were orphaned Masons' children who were cold and hungry who could be helped.

The Grand Master ruled that a Mason in good standing in a lodge in Georgia, where the Grand Lodge permits dual member- ship in the State, under dispensation by the Grand Master of Georgia, could not affiliate with a Mississippi lodge without first securing a dimit from his mother lodge.

The Grand Master called a Special Communication of Grand Lodge at Gardiner, Montana, to rededicate the Teddy Roosevelt Arch at the Gardiner entrance to Yellowstone National Park in connection with the 100th Anniversary of the establishment of the park.

Grand Masters do many things during their year in office. M.W. Bro. Beusen found a new activity. He reported "I spent three days supervising the harvesting and sale of wheat for the Montana Masonic Foundation through the Klein Estate at Circle." The Grand Master is not a farmer but an investment broker. The reason the work was made clear in the report of the Directors of the Montana Masonic Foundation. In 1962, Bro. M. J. Klein a long-time and devoted member of Circle Lodge No. 146, willed his farm to the Foundation. He was killed in an auto acci- dent and the estate had to be settled. Since the local inhabitants were not happy at the prospect of seeing 1,280 acres removed from the tax rolls by a tax-free foundation the Directors decided to sell the land to the highest bidder. The sale price was $96,000. An oil lease was sold for $6,144.00 and the wheat crop brought in $4,611.70 net. The Foundation retained the mineral rights. The Montana Masonic Foundation is a charitable tax-exempt Montana Corporation organized in 1960 "to disperse charity, both public and private."

Ten lodges voted to consolidate as five. The Proceedings give a complete record of all lodges which have consolidated over the years as well as a list of extinct lodges. In addition the charter date of every existing lodge is recorded. Thus century old lodges can be identified at a glance. In 1873, six lodges received charters and in 1874, eight. Numbers missing from the roll show that at one time there were two more in 1873 and one 1874. Another feature of the Proceedings is the list of veteran Grand Lodge attendants. M.W. Bro. B. F. Eyre (G.M. 1946) has attended 51, M.W. Bro. Bro. C. R. Griesen (Hon.) has attended 50 and M.W. Bro. W. Wanner (G.M. 1943), who wrote his 26th Fraternal Re- view in 1973, has attended 47.

M.W. Bro. Wanner was troubled by the nondelivery of "seven of the best" Proceedings to which he looks forward. As usual his recapitulation of world Freemasonry, done by subject, rather than by jurisdiction, as we do, provides a thoroughing report. He FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 31 closed his latest with a lengthy quotation from M.W. Bro. Bruce Foster's address in 1971 (page 59 of our Proceedings).

The Grand Historian presented a report which focussed on Westmorland Lodge No. 44, of Port Elgin. The lodge building was gutted by fire in 1971 but no furniture or regalia was lost. While the material was laid out in the sunlight to dry the members had no idea as to which way to turn for a meeting place. A friendly Roman Catholic suggested that the local priest be consulted. He, the Reverend Father Alfred Maillet "gave his immediate and cheerful consent" to the lodge to occupy a vacant school building. The Lodge met here while their new temple was being built. Thanks to the contributions of labour and material a large building was erected at a minimum cost.

Last year these Reviews reported that the minimum goal for funds for improvement of the Masonic Home in Manchester had been set at $500,000 and reached when only 25 per cent of the Brethren had been canvassed. By the end of the first year of effort the fund had reached $725,602.00. A new infirmary was built and many improvements were made.

One dispensation revealed a "degree team" of unusual per- sonnel. St. Mark's Lodge No. 44, Derry, were authorized "to invite the Clergy Degree Team from Massachusetts" to confer part of a M.M. degree.

Requests for waiver of jurisdiction by New Hampshire lodges were approved in seven cases by the Grand Lodge of Maine, in another seven cases by the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts, and in three cases by the Grand Lodge of Vermont when residents of the three States wished to apply for membership in lodges in New 32 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA

Hampshire. In turn the Grand Lodge of New Hampshire granted waivers enabling residents of that Jurisdiction to apply in Massa- chusetts (11 cases) and Vermont (2 cases). Permission of one candidate from New Hampshire to apply in Louisiana cannot be explained by the short distances between New England towns. In the past these Reviews have noted cases in some other Jurisdictions where such requests for waivers certainly would not have been granted.

For the first time in the history of the Grand Lodge, 400 Brethren joined in a short four day holiday in Nassau. The travellers went from all parts of the State.

Owing to the increased hazards of highway travel the Grand Lodge Trustees have set up an insurance programme. Since the seven elected Grand Lodge Officers travel by far the most they are protected to $100,000. Other Officers, such as appointed Grand Staff, D.D.G.M.s, etc. are covered to $50,000. All Grand Lodge Committee members, while on official committee business are covered to $20,000.

The most significant development during the year was the es- tablishment of the Masonic Community Charity Fund of New Jersey. The prime purpose of the Fund is "to help constituent Lodges make contributions to over riding and compelling charitable demands arising in their own community or vicinage." Approxi- mately $17,800 was contributed by the time of the Annual Com- munication. The Constitution outlined the terms as follows:

"The function and purpose of the Masonic Community Charity Fund of New Jersey shall be to provide funds to be dis- bursed by or on behalf of the constituent lodges of this Grand Jurisdiction for charitable, benevolent, educational, scientific or literary purposes." The Committee is appointed by the Grand Master.

An annual event in this Jurisdiction is the Carlsbad Caverns meeting. On this occasion the E.A. degree was conferred by mem- bers of ten different lodges of the Grand Lodge of Cosmos, Chihuahua, Mexico. Over 800 were present.

The Grand Lecturer had a busy year. Members of his staff visited most of the lodges at least once. Study sessions were held in 55 lodges, from one to seven times. In addition, several work- shops were held at the district level.

The Committee on Revolving Student Loan Fund granted twelve loans totalling $5,208.00 during the year. Repayments totalled almost $2,000. Three of these were final payments.

The Committee on Marking Graves of Past Grand Masters reported that all the graves of Past Grand Masters are suitably marked and recorded.

NEW SOUTH WALES — 1973

85th Annual Report of two Special and four Quarterly Communications — 1972 and 1973

Grand Master, 1969-72 — M.W. Bro. R. A. Hammond Grand Master, 1972-74 — M.W. Bro. V. C. N. Blight, C.B.E.

The Fraternal Reviews in the report of the fourth Quarterly Communication are limited to six Jurisdictions. Our Proceedings were given a full page. M.W. Bro. W. K. Bailey was quoted at some length.

The Quarterly Communication, December 13, 1972, was held in the Great Hall of the University of Sydney because after 84 years in the Castlereagh Street Temple, Grand Lodge had vacated the premises to permit the erection of a new temple and administra- tive offices. Last year's Review described the project. The tempor- ary meeting place was most appropriate as the Grand Lodge was inaugurated in the Great Hall on August 16, 1888.

The Freemasons' Benevolent Institution of N.S.W. is an active body. The first 54 units of the Hawkins Masonic Village at Edgeworth were officially opened and a contract for building a 29-bed nursing home for the aged, at the same site, was let. The cost of the latter will be $300,000 (Australian).

In 1945 the then Grand Master supported the formation of a combined Masonic Association. The original aims were: to help the aged and distressed; to assist in the rehabilitation and employ- ment of brethren on their discharge from the armed forces; and to 34 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA assist in the education of youth. The first aim of the C.M.A. was to visit brethren in hospital. Originally, this function was carried out by a body with the truly Victorian name "The Aged and Dis- tressed Brethren Comforts Fund." The establishment of the Masonic Homes gave the C.M.A. a wider scope. The second aim has lapsed as the need abated. The third aim still is important. Interested Masons help students in Saturday morning classes, commencing each June, with a little extra coaching to help them through their examination "from 6th Class to Learning Certificate standard."

In addition to the work being done on its new headquarters building the Grand Lodge helps finance improvement of suburban and country temples with loans at the nominal rate of 1%. The programme has been a great success. One lodge paid off a $2,000 loan with a "large cropping project".

In 1971 the Grand Lodge voted to move the William Thompson Masonic School, to sell the valuable site and to transfer the proceeds to a charitable foundation. On a motion of the Grand Master the decision was rescinded. It was agreed to rebuild the school and hostel on ten acres of the site and to sell the rest, tne proceeds to be paid to the "fund of General Purposes". From tne discussion, it is evident that the Annual Communication was discussing "a multi-million dollar project". In another place a figure of $11,000,000 (Australian) was mentioned. Our Reviews for 1971 gave a lengthy account of the School.

The Board of General Purposes permitted Lodge Temperance Liverpool No. 438 to change its name to Macquarie Liverpool. I'he explanation is that some lodges in New South Wales permit the use of alcoholic beverages and others do not. An "endorsement on the Charter" is used to exclude the use of liquor at lodge meetings. Actually, these Reviews reported in 1962 that a lodge with an endorsed charter could use liquor, provided no funds of the lodge were expended thereon.

The Board of General Purposes declined to recognize the Grand Orient of Lebanon.

On relinquishing his appointment as Governor-General M.W. Bro. Sir Arthur Porritt concluded his term as Grand Master after four years in that office and returned to England. During his final year the Grand Master continued his policy of meeting as many brethren as possible.

The Board of General Purposes, following a proposal made from the floor of Grand Ledge at the 1971 Annual Communica- tion, proposed that the minimum age of candidates (other than a Lewis) be lowered to twenty. After much thought-provoking dis- cussion, the motion was defeated.

The Grand Master-Elect was installed in the evening before the close of Grand Lodge. In his address the Grand Master said in part:

"If Freemasonry is to be the force for good, of which it is capable, we must make it relevant to the age in which we live, preserving our land marks inviolate and at the same time, in- terpreting them in a practical way for the benefit of all people. Our record of benevolence to those in distress or in need is impressive. It is effective and of a magnitude which requires and receives a high measure of business management and efficiency in its applica- tion, and there is need for more of it. By this means, we delegate to our Board of Benevolence part only of our duty to our fellow men, and we furnish the Board with funds for this purpose. My plea for the present is that we constantly review our personal atti- tudes to the people around us and identify ourselves and our efforts and abilities with their needs. If Freemasonry ever becomes inward looking, or so inbred or complacent, as to be insensitive to the challenge of the age, then it will fall from its high purpose and undoubted destiny, for no man and no group of men can live as an island. Each of us, if we try, can give some practical applica- tion to this thought. We each have our own particular abilities, and in our own home town and abroad, opportunities abound to show our concern for others."

NORTH DAKOTA — 1972

Nine representatives of the Grand Lodge of Manitoba (the Grand Master, seven Past Grand Masters and the Grand Senior Warden) attended the Annual Communication. The Jurisprudence Committee proposed the names of M.W. Bro. J. L. Rankin and M.W. Bro. W. J. Witherspoon, Past Grand Master of Manitoba, 36 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA as Honorary Past Grand Masters and R.W. Bro. H. G. McCrae, Grand Senior Warden of Manitoba, as an Honorary Member of the Grand Lodge of North Dakota. The recommendations were approved.

The Communication dealt with several proposed amendments to the Constitution and By-laws of the Grand Lodge. The office of Grand Pursuivant was done away with and a proposal to alter the method of amendment of the Constitution was approved.

Among the By-laws approved was one which lowered to 18 the age for petitioners. Another By-law approved reduced the residence requirement for petitioners from one year in the State and six months in the Jurisdiction of the lodge to three months in both. The same By-law removed the residence requirement for petitioners for affiliation whether members of a lodge in North Dakota or a jurisdiction recognized by the Grand Lodge.

A proposal to remove a section of the By-laws which prohibits the use of any intoxicating liquor in that part of a building used for Masonic purposes or in any hall or room owned, controlled or used by a constituent lodge was not approved.

The Grand Secretary visited all the Masonic historic sites in the State, except one, and discussed with officials of the State Highway Department and State Historical Society, in Bismarck, ways in which Masons, tourists and other sightseers might find their way to these sites.

In an effort to provide closer communication between the Grand Lodge and the local lodges, all Grand Lodge Officers were requested to visit assigned constituent lodges. Every lodge in the State received a request for an invitation and all but two responded. Consequently each Grand Lodge Officer visited from seven to 16 lodges during the year.

Seventy Masons, interested in Masonic leadership, spent two days at Jamestown College. The programme included a film and lectures on a variety of topics. The lectures were all given by a Mason who was also a professional educator.

Under the heading of Decisions, the Grand Master agreed that a lodge could sponsor a Boy Scout troop, so long as the body FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 37

responsible was clearly indicated to be a committee of the lodge or a group from within the membership and not the lodge itself. The explanation was that the Fraternity should not be put in the position of being held responsible for the action or inaction of sorne of its members. This is the first time this Reviewer has noticed such a request and decision.

The Pembina Masonic Historical Site is threatened by the proposal to build a dyke to protect Pembina from the Red River. The site is between the city and the river. A proposal by the city to move the monument to another location was completely unac- ceptable to the Grand Lodge. It was agreed that the city would provide a parking area and access over the dyke, leaving the site undisturbed.

NOVA SCOTIA — 1973

It is worth noting that the loss of 154 was the smallest since 1962, when it was 150.

The Grand Master attended an exceptional installation. The newly installed Master, named McKeen, his brother the Senior Warden, their grandfather, who has been a Mason for 64 years, and their uncle, who has been Secretary for 34 years, were present. Their father, a Past Master of the Lodge, Queens Lodge No. 34 at Sherbrooke, could not be present as he was in hospital. The McKeen family record must be almost impossible to duplicate.

The Advisory Board received several interesting questions from district meetings. The answers to two tell us something about widely accepted practices.

"If a life member in the Grand Lodge of Scotland affiliates with a local lodge and is subsequently suspended N.P.D., can he visit local lodges? According to our usage, which is that generally held throughout North America, only Brethren in good standing in all lodges to which they belong are entitled to membership privi- leges. The Grand Lodge of Scotland would permit him to visit Scottish lodges on the strength of his life membership, but this is contrary to our usage, and the Grand Lodge of Scotland is fully aware of the North American position in this matter."

"How much of a lodge temple is dedicated? Just the lodge room? Or the entire Temple? On its face this seems to be a purely 38 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA

academic question. I suspect however, that the Lodge feels that it is not purely academic but has some practical aspect.

"What is dedicated depends on what was said and done at the time of dedication. For this, reference should be made to the Cere- mony of Dedication in use in this Grand Lodge. Throughout this Ceremony the words invariably refer to dedicating the 'hall' and near the last, the Grand Director of Ceremonies proclaims that 'this hall has been solemnly dedicated.'

"The word 'hall' is capable of several meanings, from the hall in a dwelling to which a number of rooms have access, to a whole building such as a town hall. It is fairly certain however that the words in this ceremony were never intended to include the whole of an office building or a commercial building of which the Masonic meeting place and rooms form only a part. It would seem that they apply to that part of the building that is used for Masonic purposes, such as the meeting place, preparation room, ante-room and similar facilities. It would be almost absurd to say that an automobile show-room on the ground floor has been dedi- cated for the purposes of Masonry."

We began last year's Review with a report of the burning of a lodge building. Unfortunately, this year there were three fires. The Temple of Toronto Lodge No. 583 was completely destroyed, the roof of Newton Lodge No. 249 was extensively damaged and finally, as a result of arson, the Temple of Bethel Lodge No. 61 was severely damaged. In all cases the lodge records were secure.

The Grand Secretary held five regional Secretary's Work- shops in an attempt to improve the lines of communication between the Grand Lodge Office and the lodge Secretaries. Almost half the 681 secretaries attended. All benefitted.

The Grand Lodge was convened in Emergent Communications to lay cornerstones of a Christian Church, a Church of Christ, and two lodge buildings.

The pictures of three new temples which were dedicated show them to be attractive buildings of taste and simplicity. FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 39

The Grand Lodge held Emergent and Special Communica- tions to lay cornerstones for the new Shawnee City Hall building and four school buildings as well as to dedicate several lodge buildings.

The Grand Master was able to resolve all questions put to him during the year by reference to the Constitution and Code. The Jurisdiction had a most harmonious year.

One dispensation permitted the "Oklahoma Indian Degree Team" to travel to Missouri to confer a degree. The same body also conferred a degree in Illinois.

In commenting on non-attendance, the Grand Master ex- pressed the matter in an original way. "Masonry is a speculative science, but only to the extent that it is operative. To be operative it must be participated in frequently."

One action which must be chronicled was the bequest by Bro. Will Grant, whose name also should be recorded, of $37,744.00 to the small lodges in eastern Oklahoma, in an amount not to exceed $500.00 each. The court divided the Jurisdiction into three parts. Western, Central and Eastern. The only lodge to re- ceive a grant west of the court-determined line was Bro. Grant's home lodge. Actually there were not sufficient funds to give each lodge $500 so the funds were given to 80 lodges with the smallest membership. Masonry must have meant a great deal to such a benefactor.

Grand Lodges differ from one another in various ways. In one particular the Grand Lodge of Oregon carries on an activity which would not have a place in our Jurisdiction. Under the head- ing "Political Activity" the Grand Master reported "we, as a Grand 40 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA

Lodge, actively worked to inform the membership" of a proposed measure which would have changed the State Constitution to a point where pressure groups might have sought and obtained public funds for the support of non-public activities. He concluded "We have reason to believe that our opposition was, in part at least, responsible for the decisive defeat of this Measure."

One dispensation granted by the Grand Master echoed the history of earlier times in Masonry. He permitted Oregon Military Lodge No. 223 to change the date of their December Stated Com- munication "because of military maneuvers." This Lodge works in Germany.

M.W. Bros. W. K. Bailey and J. A. Irvine were among the Distinguished Guests at the December Quarterly Communication, the major meeting of the Grand Lodge during the year. The annual election is also held at the December Communication. On this occasion the Grand Lodge Officers were re-elected for a second year, beginning on St. John the Evangelist's Day.

The Grand Lodge operates the Thomas Ranken Patton Masonic Institution for Boys which provides education for widow's sons. The School has been accredited by the Middle States Associ- ation of Colleges and Secondary Schools. Though able to enroll 56 students the number in residence in 1972 was 40. The operation is not cheap. The cost of maintaining and educating "one Patton boy exceeds $4,100 a year,"

When a tropical storm played havoc in the Jurisdiction late in June, the Grand Lodge immediately set up a committee to help the victims of the catastrophe. The Committee expected the aid fund to reach $600,000.00 before its work was completed. The funds were disbursed in cash gifts to Brethren who needed immedi- ate help, in low interest loans to enable victims to get a new start, to local organizations which did outstanding community work during the disaster and to assist in restoring Masonic temples damaged by flood waters. By far the largest sum went to the second category, low interest loans.

More than 7,000 tourists and visitors visited the Temple in Philadelphia, which was one hundred years old in 1973. Large scale improvements have been completed over the past several years. FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 41

Because of the increasing number of Brethren in Korea and the distance between Japan and Korea, the Grand Master set up a District (No. 30) in that country.

The Grand Master is convinced that the Grand Lodge should sell its property and "rebuild in a different location for better planning and a better image." At present the "Temple does not project a good Masonic image." Furthermore, according to the Grand Master it is a firetrap without insurance. It is surrounded by tennis courts and an automobile shop "situated in very expen- sive downtown property which is very poor stewardship." The Grand Master recommended the appointment of a Committee to sell the property and make provision for a new temple.

The Grand Master ended his address on a high note:

"I now go the way of all Grand Masters, but as I go, there gathers round my head a vision of indescribable grandeur ... I see an institution which no man founded and which no man has been able to destroy, an institution which has survived all the assault which bigotry, ignorance, or fanaticism has been able to devise, and has never been more triumphant than it is today, an institution which attacks no man, and yet has flourished in majestic splendour all down the centuries. I see an institution, unchanging and unyielding in a time of flux and chaos, an immut- able rock amid the whirlwind and the earthquake. I see. Brethren, I see Freemasonry immemorial, immeasurable, immutable, and, I believe, immortal."

The increase in membership, though small, was gratifying. All the lodges in the Jurisdiction, except one, have been most active.

Since the Grand Lodge does not have an educational com- mittee the Grand Master sent two letters to the lodges. The first 42 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA explained the duties of a Masonic Lodge. The second dealt with questions which should be asked an applicant for Masonry.

The Scholarship Committee granted four scholarships. Their task was not easy as they received applications from ten fine candidates. Since the awards were instituted in 1964, 39 scholar- ships have been granted, totalling $9,750.00.

The Grand Lodge will celebrate its centennial in 1975. The Grand Historian, therefore, took the opportunity to review past anniversary celebrations. The first one was in 1897, when the Grand Lodge was only 22 years old. They held a Special Com- munication to celebrate the centennial of St. John's Lodge No. 1, Charlottetown. Other celebrations marked the 50th and 75th anniversaries of the Grand Lodge.

The roll of lodges shows an increase of one. The addition is La Loge Delta U.D. The institution of the new lodge was an his- toric occasion as it was the first time a lodge had been instituted bilingually. Among the distinguished visitors received after the opening of the Grand Lodge was M.W. Bro. Harry L. Martyn. After the guests were welcomed the Grand Lodge recessed and as the Proceedings state "no doubt history was made not only in Quebec but in the world when the Grand Master received and wel- comed Rev. Father Irenee Beaubien, Director of the Ecumenical Centre of the Church of Rome." He expressed his delight at the dialogue taking place between himself and other representatives of the Roman Catholic church, the Grand Master of Quebec and several members of the clergy representing the Masonic Order.

As has been the case in recent years, the Grand Master addressed some words in French to the francophone brethren. He told them that if they had any remarks to make, they were free to make them in their mother tongue. Among the Past Grand Officers lost during the year was R.W. Bro. G. W. Galbraith, who, though blind, was representative to the Board of General Purposes for the St. Francis district for 22 years. He rarely missed a meeting of the Board.

As evidence of renewed interest in Masonic activity, the Grand Master said that two additional lodges were under active FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 43 consideration. One of these is another francophone lodge outside the Metropolitan area. The other is a lodge of Masonic research. This body would have all the powers of a regular lodge but would not confer degrees.

An unusual meeting took place in Rawdon Centennial Lodge No. 135 when the W.M., W. Bro. G. Pike, initiated his three sons. All officers of the evening were members of the Pike family.

Three lodges celebrated their centennials and another three their semi-centennial.

The Grand Masters of Quebec and Alberta realized a dream when La Loge des Coeurs Unis No. 45 (one of the francophone lodges in Montreal) and others visited Zetland Lodge No. 83, Calgary. As the Grand Master of Quebec said: "There is no doubt this venture was a very significant step taken by members of our Craft to unite this magnificent country of Canada. The opportunity presented to us to meet face to face with brethren domiciled at so great a distance from ourselves was most revealing and rewarding. It was revealing in the sense that we learned conclusively that the only thing that separates us as Canadians is 'miles'. It was reward- ing to discover, during the exemplification of the first degree in the French ritual that indeed 'language is subordinate to thought'. I am convinced this was one of the most important events to have occurred during my term as Grand Master and I was delighted to have shared the experience with 45 Quebecers who made the 2,000 mile trip at their own expense."

A return visit is planned.

In Quebec City, the Masonic Club of Quebec Clubroom was opened unofficially, with 400 persons present. "The clubroom has produced a new dimension to this magnificent Temple" according to the Grand Master.

The Montreal Temple was the scene of a wedding at which the Grand Master was invited to participate.

Since the Temple in Montreal is the outward and visible symbol of Masonry in Quebec, the Grand Lodge launched a Headquarters Development Fund to be used to refurbish the build- ing, which is in excellent condition but in need of some moderniza- tion. The level of donations has been impressive.

After many years of effort a French ritual has been established. The Grand Master suggested that the ritual could very well extend Masonic activity in anglophone lodges. "It may lead to the forma- tion of teams capable of conferring or exemplifying degrees in French, either as required or on a once a year basis." 44 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA

The Grand Master has many duties similar to those of Grand Masters of other jurisdictions. He visited 78 lodges and regretted that he could not visit more. In Australia, however, a Grand Master also receives the debutantes at Masonic balls. M.W. Bro. Bauer attended several such occasions and other Grand Officers represented him at others. The Grand Master explained: "Functions such as these are usually held once a year, and in my opinion serve a very good purpose. Brethren together with their wives, sons and daughters are able to fraternise in enjoyment with members of the public and to show that Freemasonry is not an insular association."

The expenditure of $520,000 (approximately $750,000 Can- adian) "for the purpose of erecting, furnishing and commissioning a modern 165 bed Infirmary in the grounds of the Freemasons Homes, Sandgate" was approved. An appeal for voluntary dona- tions is planned. The Commonwealth Government subsidizes such projects $2 for $1. Thus the total project is in the order of $1,377,000 (Australian).

One recommendation of the Grand Master had merit but would not be feasible in our Jurisdiction. He said: "I strongly recommend to all subordinate lodges that the charter of the Lodge be stored in such a manner as to preserve it from damage, loss or fire and that a copy be used for lodge work." The statement is certainly applicable to all lodge records such as registers, by- laws and minute books, in which cases the current volumes can be carried to each meeting.

In the Review last year we reported on the visit of the Most Reverend Louis E. Gelineau, Bishop of the Roman Catholic Dio- FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 45 cese of Providence to the Annual Communication. The ecumenical movement continued. The Grand Master was invited by the same bishop to the rededication of the cathedral of the Diocese. Other somewhat unlikely gatherings included the Grand Master's accompanying "the officers of St. John's Lodge No. 1, Providence to a public installation of officers of Dillon Council, Knights of Columbus." On another occasion the Grand Master participated in extending a welcome to Bishop Gelineau when he visited Harmony Lodge No. 9.

The leading social event of the Grand Lodge year was the fifth Annual Fall Festival. No fewer than 1,167 attended. The evening consisted of dancing and a buffet.

The question of the introduction of spirituous or malt bever- ages into Masonic temples in a limited manner, mentioned in last year's Review, was answered by a decisive rejection at the Semi- Annual Communication.

Although now a somewhat old story, it has a place here. The D.D.G.M. of the First District reported that "Early in December, 1972, the District decided to visit Mimico Lodge No. 369 of Toronto, Canada; it being the local of Worshipful Brother Edward Hudson." Consequently on May 11, 1973, a large chartered bus left Providence on the visit. The journey was a great success.

The Grand Master set up two special committees during the year: one to investigate and report on the need for changes in District boundaries and one to help a district which requires special assistance. The reports are to be presented at the 1974 Communi- cation.

The movement of young people to the cities necessitated the amalgamation of six lodges into three.

The Grand Master and Grand Secretary were commissioned to investigate the possibility of holding the Annual Communication in one of the smaller cities of the Province. Their researches showed that the idea was not feasible.

The incoming Grand Master, M.W. Bro. John Morland is a minister. Born in Newcastle-on-Tyne, England, in 1904 he came 46 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA with his parents to Manitoba in 1905. He worked as a farm hand in Saskatchewan before securing his training in theology. He entered the ministry in 1941 and in 1972 received the honorary degree of D.D.

The visitors at the August Quarterly Communication showed how far-flung are the lodges of the Grand Lodge of Scotland. Grand Lodge Officers were present from Nigeria, Trinidad and Tobago, Ghana, Thailand and Rhodesia. In addition, visitors were present from New Jersey and Belgium.

The Immediate Past Grand Master of Belgium described the history of the close ties between his Grand Lodge and the Grand Lodge of Scotland.

"Amongst the Lodges in our part when Masonry was propa- gated on the Continent, a certain number were founded by Scotsmen more than two centuries ago and they joined our first Provincial Grand Lodge in 1770 when the Marquis de Garre was installed as the first Grand Master in the Austrian Netherlands, and we will never forget that less than two centuries later Scottish members of the Craft supported those who tried to re-establish in Belgium the true tradition and the ancient regularity of Masonry universal.

"You know that we are glad that we have been able to open in Brussels two Lodges on the roll of the Grand Lodge of Scotland and I am proud to be an Affiliate member of Lodge Wellington, No. 1385. Many members of Belgian Lodges are Affiliate members of those two Lodges and this interlinking is very important for mutual comprehension, for tolerance and for joint efforts to pro- pagate the high ideals of the Craft and to show the world what Freemasonry really is."

The District Superintendent of the Grand Lodge in Peru told something more.

"It will be a source of satisfaction to you. Most Worshipful Grand Master, to know that in the jurisdiction of Peru we have FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 47 operating in the remoteness of the Andes the highest Lodge in the world, at 12,250 ft., and to get to it many Brethren have to motor for hours on end over precarious mountain roads, such is their love for the Craft. It is a small Lodge, but a strong Lodge. We also have in Peru one of the oldest Lodges on the Pacific coast of South America, which is Peace and Concord, No. 445. It is over 100 years old, young by standards here in Scotland, I appreciate, but old in South America, and, finally, our third Lodge, Lodge Unity, No. 1109. It is the only Lodge in South America to be operating with a tartan regalia."

Although we raised the possibility (in our Review of Washing- ton) that the Lodge in Fairbanks, Alaska, may not be the most northerly, as the Brethren claim, we cannot think of any other possible contender as the highest.

"My own Province is large in area, covering three counties, with nearly all the Lodges concentrated in one of those three counties. It is also large in numbers. At the present moment I have 129 Lodges, and we are going through a period, which I hope will continue, of fairly rapid expansion in that Province. Since I became Provincial Grand Master, seven years ago, I have never missed an opportunity of saying to the Brethren that I think many of the Lodges are far too large, and I seem to have seen something to the same effect in the remarks of your own Grand Master Mason on previous occasions here. I have been doing my best to persuade them to form new Lodges in order to take the best ad- vantage of the availability of Candidates and to enable Brethren to reach the Chair of the Lodge while they are still of an age to be of further use to the Province and to the Craft in general.

"I have been consecrating several Lodges this year, and I have two more to do before Christmas, and by that time I shall have consecrated eight new Lodges in the Province during this year, so I think our problems, as I have said, are very similar. Some of the Lodges, especially in the more remote areas, are very set in their ways, and they carry on as they have done almost from time im- memorial, at any rate within the memory of the oldest Past Master, and once they are set in those ways it is awfully hard to get them out of them, and I am sure you find the same thing yourselves. But of one thing I have never been in any doubt, and that is of the great loyalty which my Lodges have to the Province and to the English Constitution, and so, I am sure, it is in this Constitution. I am quite sure that your Lodges all feel the same deep loyalty to their Province and to their Grand Master Mason, and long may that so continue.

"One of the things which I have noticed in the Proceedings which have been sent to me is the term which you use for this occasion in which we are all taking part now. We have various names which we use. We call it the Banquet, or the After-Proceed- ings, or the Festive Board, and I am not quite sure which of those terms I dislike most, but the term which I have seen cropping up 48 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA several times in your Proceedings is the Harmony, and to me that sums up better than anything else the spirit which exists through- out Masonry. Whatever the differences in our working and in our customs, they all mean the same thing. The Ritual, after all, is only a means to an end, it is not the end in itself as so many Lodges seem to think. It is the means by which we bring Candi- dates into our midst and by which we endeavour to instil into them the principles in which we all believe in order that we should all unite in the grand design of being happy and communi- cating happiness."

At the same November Quarterly Communication, Bro. Dr. Charles Pidoux. Past Senior Grand Warden of the National Grand Lodge of France, told of Freemasonry in the French-speaking parts of Africa.

"Now allow me in my capacity as Deputy Designate Grand Master of our District in Africa to say a few words about regular Freemasonry in French-speaking countries in that part of the world. In 1968 our Grand Lodge had the opportunity of consecrat- ing Lodges in West Africa, the first one in Dakar, where we have now two Lodges, now two in Togoland and one in Dahomey, five Lodges in all, and the next Lodge in Togoland will be English- speaking under the French jurisdiction."

The Grand Lodge held an open day, the third, which took place in Edinburgh in the form of a Divine Service in St. Giles Cathedral followed by afternoon tea in Freemasons' Hall. Tickets for the occasion were fully taken up. Sixteen hundred were present in the Cathedral, representing lodges throughout Scotland.

Among the petitions for proposed new lodges was one from Topsail, Conception Bay South, Newfoundland, under the title Conception. The petition was granted and the number 1679 was assigned. The colour of the lodge clothing is royal blue.

The Grand Master Mason was re-elected unanimously but in the Jurisdiction he is installed annually, at the Annual Communi- cation.

The Festival of Saint Andrew followed the Annual Communi- cation. Bro. The Right Honourable Lord Swansea, Provincial Grand Master of South Wales, Eastern Division, proposed the toast to Grand Lodge. He gave some interesting details regarding Freemasonry in Wales and also made some solid observations on Freemasonry in general.

The Grand Master Mason, in his reply, also stressed the need for small lodges.

"You will be interested to know that the number of Intrants into Scottish Freemasonry has increased over the past year. It is now up to, in round figures, approximately, 9,400, approximately FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 49

150 up on the previous year. I hesitate to tell you the number of Lodges we have consecrated when I hear that Brother Lord Swansea in his Province of South Wales has consecrated eight Lodges. I hesitate to tell you that we have only consecrated seven, but it shows, I think, an interesting thing, that several of those Lodges were in fact in Scotland, and I would like to think that this is pointing the way to your remarks that you emphasised. Brother Lord Swansea, when you spoke on the size of the Lodges and the creation of more Lodges to give more opportunity and more par- ticipation rather than these big unwieldy units which are really getting totally impersonal."

One paragraph in the The Grand Master Mason's remarks had a much wider application than to the Grand Lodge of Scotland alone and provides a fitting conclusion to this somewhat lengthy Review.

"Now, Brethren, our task in 1974 is to ensure that when those pages of history are written, the name of Freemasonry will be prominent on the list of those who have brought light and succour to those who needed it in times of darkness and distress. And what a challenge. Brethren! Is it a challenge that makes you shake your heads in disbelief? or is it a challenge that makes you hold your heads a little higher as Freemasons ought? If you want guidance and leadership from your Grand Master Mason, I am going to tell you to hold your heads high, for whilst I spoke earlier of the sense of purpose that Grand Lodge has, I am now more than ever before confident that there is an awareness and an en- thusiasm right throughout the whole structure of our Scottish Craft from Grand Lodge to the Lodges and the individual mem- bers that compose them."

SOUTH AUSTRALIA — 1973

Half-yearly Communication — October 18, 1972. 89th Annual Communication — April 18.

Grand Master, 1964-72 — M.W. Bro. Rev. Canon W. R. Ray Grand Master, 1972-74 M.W. Bro. The Hon. Mr. Justice Zelling, C.B.E.

Lodges, 211. Membership, 21,402. Loss, 425.

Eleven lodges celebrated jubilees during the year. Once again the loss figure was down being the lowest since 1964. Initiations were up and exceeded losses.

The Grand Lodge maintains several "Cottage Homes and Flats" for "necessitous persons." Building commenced on another 69 flats for 83 people. The Nursing Home which has 44 residents was given as a reference by the Department of Social Services to 50 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA several other organizations which are planning similar develop- ment. The care of patients is of a very high order.

In his address at the Half-yearly Communication, the Grand Master reported that he had prepared "a document containing material for the good of the Craft" which he planned to send to all Lodges. He did not expand on the contents. Further in his address he gave his opinion that Freemasonry "has leadership to give in two realms: first, in purity and decency of life, and secondly in being able to think steadily, morally and logically." He found the words of a proposed national anthem "God Bless Australia" particularly distasteful. The lyric starts "Here in the God given land of Australia." He pointed out that if God gave the land to anybody He gave it to the aborigines and the Australians had stolen it from them.

The Grand Master concluded:

"It is time therefore that those of us who believe wholeheart- edly in the Volume of the Sacred Law, as Freemasons do in a God who is a God of judgement as well as of mercy, and in a brother- hood of Freemasonry, which transcends national and colour bound- aries should stand up and be counted.

"Clearly we can only do this by starting from the Volume of the Sacred Law and it is for that amongst other reasons that I have asked the Grand Chaplain, instead of the Grand Lecturer, to be the guest speaker this evening and he will be speaking on this subject of the Volume of the Sacred Law and the Craft. I com- mend to you what he has to say."

SOUTH CAROLINA — 1973

The Grand Lodge met in Emergent Communication six times. Four of the meetings were called to dedicate new Masonic Temples.

For 32 years Cooper Lodge No. 282 has held a Special Com- munication "in Wing's Quarry, near Traveler's Rest." This year the M.M. Degree was conferred by participants in the work chosen from lodges in the District. Close to 1,000 attended. The Grand Master described the location as a most appropriate place for an outdoor communication "with its broad floor ringed by sheer cliffs approaching one hundred feet in height." FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 51

Between 1939 and 1973 Masonic Membership has quadrupled in South Carolina whereas 37 of 49 jurisdictions in the United States have shown decreases. The Grand Master developed the thoughts he had on the subject which he expressed last year. He also gave a clear explanation of the growth of Freemasonry in South Carolina.

"The answer to membership problems will never lie in solici- tation of members. Masonry's best interests require that its mem- bers continue to come of their own free will and accord. Our aim is to make Masons, not merely to add numbers.

"Measures to reduce absenteeism and the number of NPD erasures will contribute to the avoidance of net losses, but the basic solution of the problem must inevitably be found in the in- crease of the number of applicants who are raised each year. That this number has not kept pace with the increasing population may in large part be due to lack of contact with Masonry in the community.

"Once asked why he became a Mason, George Washington said: 'My first desire to become a Mason was due to the fact that many of Virginia's noblest sons were members of the Fraternity.'

"In the smaller communities Masonry and its active member- ship is as visible to the younger men coming of age as it was in Washington's day. For example, in South Carolina by far the greater number of our lodges are in small communities, suburban or rural. When the lodge has a Ladies Night banquet, virtually the whole adult community, and sometimes even the teen-agers, are in attendance. The young men coming of age not only know of Masonry—they have every reason to be drawn into its ranks.

"The situation is different in the larger centers of population, and particularly in the vast metropolitan areas. Masonry's visibility tends to be submerged in the impersonality of urban living and the number of competing interests."

SOUTH DAKOTA — 1973

One of the duties of the Grand Historian as outlined in the resolution establishing the office in 1940 is to prepare biographies of Masons who have contributed liberally to Masonry in the State. This year the Grand Historian dealt with the first Master of the mother lodge of the Dakotas, the Rev. Bro. Melancthon Hoyt, In 52 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA two pages he gave a complete account of this pioneer Episcopal missionary and Mason, who made a great contribution in both fields of his interest.

The Centennial Committee do not have much time but are well ahead with plans. These include the publication of a history of the Grand Lodge and a brief history of each Grand Master's year. The work was almost ready for the printer at the time of Grand Lodge.

The Fraternal Reviews cover the Proceedings of only six Jurisdictions. It is gratifying to see that our Grand Lodge is in- cluded, with a comprehensive notice.

The Grievances and Appeals Committee reported that nothing had been referred to them and that "Peace and harmony prevails throughout the Jurisdiction."

SOUTHERN AFRICA — 1972/73

Annual General Meeting — August 26, 1972.

The Grand Master described the year as a period of consoli- dation rather than of spectacular advancement. As he said "It would seem that there has been a conscious effort not to get more men into Freemasonry but rather to get more Freemasonry into men. On the credit side we therefore find that Lodges have been far more selective in their choice of candidates, with the result that the quality of the new members admitted during the year has risen appreciably. There was a time, not so many years ago, when a man merely had to make the most tentative enquiries about Free- masonry to have an application form slipped into his hand. That time is fortunately past, and today great stress is laid by most Lodges on a proper enquiry into the antecedents of anybody who desires to become a member of the Order."

The question of the apartheid laws of South Africa and Free- masonry almost certainly has run through the minds of many readers of these Reviews. The Grand Master gave a clear statement which should be recorded here.

"During the year I was asked by one of our Provincial Grand Lodges to rule on what our attitude should be, bearing in mind the racial laws of South Africa, if a non-White Freemason, being a member in good standing of a Grand Lodge with which the Grand FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 53

Lodge of Southern Africa is in amity, requests permission to visit a Lodge working under the Grand Lodge of Southern Africa.

"After consultation with an important Government official I gave the following ruling which I would like to quote in full be- cause it has presumably given rise to some misunderstanding in a few Lodges. My ruling was as follows:

'If a non-White Freemason belonging to a Grand Lodge with which the Grand Lodge of Southern Africa is in amity re- quests admission to a Lodge working under the Grand Lodge of Southern Africa, he is to be made welcome and received in accordance with his rank, and before, during and after the meeting there is to be no differentiation whatsoever between the treatment he receives and that accorded to a White visitor.'

"For some reason unknown to me one or two of our Lodges interpreted this directive as an order to Lodges to admit non-Whites to membership of the Lodge. I must point out that membership of any particular Lodge is something about which that Lodge, and nobody else, decides. It is therefore not within the competence of the Grand Master to order Lodges to admit non-Whites as mem- bers. This directive merely refers to visitors and in practice will normally apply to visiting non-White diplomats who are Masons."

Two lodges were consecrated during the year and there are two U.D.

In this Jurisdiction, the Provincial Grand Lodges, of which there are three, also hold annual meetings.

At the suggestion of the Grand Master, the Board of General Purposes issued a periodical Newsletter which has proved to be of interest to all members of the Craft.

Since most of the books and pamphlets about the Craft, its history and its inner meaning are produced outside the Jurisdic- tion, the Grand Master commended W.M. Bro. K. G. Haines for writing a volume entitled "The Employment and Instruction of Brethren."

The Standing Committee prepared a document on "The Nature of Freemasonry" which they submitted to the Board for 54 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA approval. The recommendation that the material be printed on a durable card and sent to all members by lodge Secretaries was approved.

The Standing Committee also proposed that a questionnaire be sent regularly to non-attending members. They suggested that the questionnaire be printed and sent with an addressed reply paid envelope. This is an idea not encountered before by this Reviewer. The proposal might bear discussion in other Jurisdictions or lodges.

UTAH — 1973

The Grand Master was able to visit every lodge in his Juris- diction. He found great enthusiasm wherever he went. The high- lights of the year were the dedications of two new Masonic Temples.

The Masonic Foundation of Utah was established forty-four \ears ago "to encourage charity, beneficence, education and philanthropy" etc. During the year the Directors contributed a total of $29,000.00 to "Youth and veterans", "Hospitals" and "Educational institutions". The net worth of the Foundation now stands at $535,000.00. It is interesting to note that one of the disbursements was for Federal income tax—$941.84. The Founda- tion is required by law to distribute all the net income after payment of taxes but is permitted to retain contributions and capital gain.

The Grand Master was installed at the March Quarterly Com- munication. In his address he asked the question "What is there FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 55 in Freemasonry for the modern man?" and added the answer could not be given as there was too much to be said. He did point out, however, that it offers different men different things. As he said:

"On the highest plane Freemasonry has substance and meaning and a message for the man whose relationship to the G.A. of the U. is close and fervent. The humility and the hope which are given to us from listening to and understanding the spiritual message of Freemasonry help us put in proper perspective our priorities in this life. It is not a religion, but its teachings mesh with the teach- ings of all great religions.

"Freemasonry satisfies the man of philosophical and intellec- tual habits. He can study the contents of the ritual, its origins, its allegories, and its counterparts in other areas of knowledge and never cease to wonder that its authors should contain so much wisdom within its bounds.

"With a critical mind he can go further, and discover omis- sions, and contradictions, and generally exploit his critical faculty to his heart's content, and still be a good Freemason.

"Again, Freemasonry appeals to the man who in this rather drab modern age appreciates a modicum of colour and pageantry. Do not dismiss lightly the visual appeal of our ceremonial. It looks dreadful when done poorly. It is virtually unique in this modern age when done superbly."

Only six lodges were not represented at the Annual Communi- cation and one of these is in Skagway, Alaska.

The Grand Officers were assigned special duties and topics to discuss during the year. The programme worked well. Included in the many topics discussed were "Sojourners, Standards of the Craft, Investigation of Petitioners and Examination of Visitors."

As the Grand Master travelled around the States of Washing- ton and Alaska, he was gratified to see the large numbers of young men becoming Masons and taking part in the lodges.

The Grand Lodge for many years has taken a great interest in the public schools of the State. Now, the Grand Master thinks that the Grand Lodge should adopt enabling legislation which 56 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA

would make it possible to accept and dispense funds for scholar- ships.

The Grand Master and his party spent 16 days visiting the lodges in Alaska. The Brethren of Tanana Lodge No. 162, at Fairbanks, "as the farthest North Masonic Lodge in the world." They may well be right. However, it should be noted that Fair- banks is just below the Arctic circle. In Norway, Tromso and Bodo, both with populations larger than that of Fairbanks, lie above the Arctic Circle and may possess lodges. Unfortunately, we do not receive the Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Norway. They would show the most northerly lodge in that Jurisdiction. Certainly Fairbanks is further north than Dawson City, the best Canadian claimant.

In 1961, when M.W. Bro. W. J. Dunlop reviewed the Proceed- ings of the Grand Lodge of Washington, he referred most favour- ably on the Reviews written by M.W. Bro. F. Winkels (P.G.M.). In the following year the present Reviewer wrote in the same vein. M.W. Bro. Winkels is still reporting on "the Reviews of the Pro- ceedings of Frater Jurisdictions" and expressing views which would have pleased M.W. Bro. Dunlop. The following paragraphs cannot be gainsaid.

"The herd instincts of humanity, which seem to yearn for something outside themselves, often turn to the unknown and the untried and, therefore, the greatest challenge we face today is not the loss in membership but, rather, the effects of a misdirected, uninformed enthusiasm for innovation to cope with ever-recurring change.

"How can Freemasonry meet this challenge? Is it possible that the basic principles and teachings of Freemasonry are wrong and should be changed? History shows us that there are periods of change and adjustment and we are passing through such a period. History also shows us that it is the outward forms which change but the basic time-tested principles and truths remain firmly established.

"No thinking person can ever conceive that the everlasting belief in God, the immortality of the soul and the brotherhood of man can ever become outmoded, cast aside or lose their appeal to good men, to thinking men, be they Masons or not."

"Let us, therefore, my Brethren beware of laying hasty hands upon our laws or our work. Let us preserve, protect and defend this precious heritage which is rapidly becoming unique, so that those who come after us may say as we now say, 'They were great Masons and great Men'."

Since the inception of the Grand Lodge the cost of the admini- stration of the Widows, Orphans and Aged Freemasons' Fund has been absorbed by the General Fund of Grand Lodge. This con- 58 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA tributed to a very great degree to the success of the Fund and enabled the Board of Management to carry out its objects.

When the Fund was first set up its main object was the granting of annuities to and relieving of distress of widows and orphans at a time in history when little if any provision for their welfare was available in the form of Government assistance.

Approximately ten years ago with the great change in the social structure of the whole community it was seen that this form of assistance was losing its urgency and a need for housing for the aged was becoming more pressing. The Board, therefore, em- barked on a scheme to provide low cost housing for elderly Free- masons and widows. To-date 144 people are accommodated in cottages which have been provided from the Fund.

The Grand Lodge approved provision of housing for a further 34.

Although the question of the use of recorded music during Degrees now and then appears in the Proceedings of some Grand

Lodges in the United States, it has now arisen in Western Australia. The Board held a special meeting to deal with the subject. The Grand Director of Music coopted a number of Brethren, including organists to supply vocal support of the Odes.

"Lodges have already been advised that the Board has given approval for taped Masonic Music to be played for the Three Degrees. The Board wishes to stress that taped Masonic Music is not to replace an organist in any way. The purpose of taped Masonic Music is to provide music for ceremonial workings in Lodges that do not have an organ or organist."

The Board has now given its approval for a lecture on the Third Degree Tracing Board. The Ritual and Ceremonial Com- mittee carried out much research before final approval was given for the lecture to be included in the Ritual.

The Grand Master concluded his address with a statement with which we must all agree:

"In the turbulence of life today, it is becoming more and more evident that the great principles for which Freemasonry stands are being tested. It is not enough that in the Lodge Room or amongst Freemasons a bond of brotherhood should exist. It is the mission of the Craft so to spread the gospel of human kinship that all the World will acknowledge the benefit of living in amity and concord." FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 59

Since Grand Masters who are employed cannot find time to visit all 55 lodges in the Jurisdiction a new system was tried. The next four officers in line visited approximately a quarter of the lodges. Thus on installation each Grand Master will have visited every lodge while holding one of the lower offices.

Among the 19 Special dispensations were two for outdoor meetings. Five were for attending church services.

The Centennial History Committee is getting on well with the publication of a history of the Grand Lodge, at a cost of approxi- mately $12,000. In addition, a shortened souvenir history is planned.

The Centennial Activities Committee has produced an antique bronze medallion "in a unique and well-executed design" to com- memorate the 100th anniversary of the Grand Lodge. More than 3,000 of the 5,000 have been sent to lodges. The Committee at the time of reporting had recovered all costs. They plan to issue a limited, numbered edition in sterling silver in 1974. The silver issue will cost $12.00 each. The lower numbers will be drawn by lot. In 1971 we reported on the manufacture of 750 beaded buckskin miniature Masonic aprons and 300 "medicine" pouches for the ladies at the centennial banquet. The Chairman of the Com- mittee assured Grand Lodge that the contract would be completed. The Committee has been busy for some years.

APPENDIX «D" ADDRESS BY M.W. BRO. FORREST D. HAGGARD AT THE GRAND MASTER'S BANQUET Held In The Canadian Room Royal York Hotel, Toronto Ontario

JULY 17th, 1974

THE GRAND MASTER; I should like now if Most Worshipful Brother William L. Wright would introduce our guest speaker.

M.W. BRO. WILLIAM L. WRIGHT:

Most Worshipful Grand Master, Distinguished Guests and Brethren, during the past 30 years it has been my good fortune to attend the Grand Master's Banquet which has always proved the highlight of each Annual Communication. With the exception of two occasions we have been honoured during that time in having outstanding speakers from the United States of America, Canada and Overseas. The addresses on the two occasions to which I have made reference were very mediocre. To paraphrase V. Wor. Bro. Wallace McLeod's remark in his report on the Library Committee this morning I would say that those two other speakers were less precious and ranged from the empty to the fantastic, their names in charity we veil. I am privileged this evening to introduce one whose gifts, zeal and dedication have been widely proclaimed throughout North America. I refer to Most Wor. Bro. Forrest D. Haggard, the Grand Master of The Grand Lodge of Kansas. A native of Nebraska, he received his primary and secondary education in Nebraska and Colorado. A graduate of Phillips University in Arts and Divinity, he also possesses a Masters Degree from the University of Missouri. His distinguished academic background has been matched by his intense devotion to Freemasonry. I mention only a few of Bro. Haggard's Masonic accomplishments. He was made a Mason in Oklahoma in 1946, and in due course was Master and Charter Master of his Lodge in 1965/66 and later received the honour of Past Grand Master of Oklahoma. In Grand Lodge, Bro. Haggard has accepted additional responsibilities serving faithfully on numerous com- mittees and accepting Masonic opportunities by becoming Grand Chaplain, Chairman of the Committee on Church Lodge relations and as a member of the Committee on Masonic Education. He is a representative near the Grand Lodge of Israel for the Grand Lodge of Kansas. He's also associated with other Masonic bodies including the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite and is an honorary thirty-third degree Mason. 2 APPEiNDIX "D"

Bro. Haggard is the author of many Masonic articles, but his book "The Clergy and the Craft" is most enlightening and helpful. The research involved is symptomatic of his personal and un- wavering fidelity in the composition of this widely acclaimed work. Our distinguished guest is Pastor of the Christian Church in Overland Park, Kansas. I don't altogether relish the term "successful minister" but when I learned that in 1953 when his congregation was meeting in a theatre with an average attendance of thirty, and that today three identical worship services are held each Sunday morning with a congregation of 1700, I ask myself, where have I been in the past forty-eight years. His community interests are legion and l"m especially impressed by the mag- nificent contribution he has made and is making to the Boy Scout movement. Tonight we welcome a distinguished repre- sentative of the Church and Masonic Fraternity and give recog- nition to his versatility and indefatigable zeal by affectionately designating him an ecclesiastical all-rounder. Brethren I am honoured in introducing to you Most Wor. Bro. Forrest D. Haggard, The Grand Master, The Grand Lodge of Kansas.

M.W. BRO. FORREST D. HAGGARD:

Most Worshipful and Bishop Wright. That's the first time I've ever been introduced by a streaker (as you were called by one of your own here) in my life time and I appreciate it. It was a great introduction. My wife said to remind you Brethren that a good introduction, in case I received one, was like perfume, you're supposed to inhale it but don't swallow it, — and that's true, (laughter). Most Worshipful Grand Master, members of your Grand Lodge, Most Worshipful Grand Masters, reigning and past, distinguished guests and brother Masons all, I've heard myself called "an outstanding speaker" several times in this Grand Lodge session. That is difficult to take because I hear myself quite often. I appreciated the good advice of a rural Preacher in Kansas who was designated "Preacher of the Year". I knew him for many years. He was hesitant and easily embarrassed and not sophisti- cated. But as I saw him receive the reward in an International gathering, he was poised and articulate. I spoke to him afterwards and congratulated him on his ability to remain calm in the face of a magnificent affair. He said "my 16 year old son helped me". He came to me and said, "Dad, are they going to introduce you like that everywhere." I said "yes", and he said, "well Dad I'll tell you what, you ought to enjoy it but don't try to live up to it." That's the only way I've gotten by today is to enjoy it but not to live up to it. It's the first time I've been in Canada to speak. I speak a lot of places for the first time (laughter). I was at a Rose Croix meeting in Guthrie, Oklahoma, and I spoke before a banquet of men, an excellent occasion, and when I finished, the trustees of the Chapter met over in the corner and as I left, they gave me a gold watch, (now you know, no example intended or anything, just a reminder). I appreciated it and enjoyed it, and

it was a case watch and very rare, and I was glad to have it, APPENDIX "D" 3

but when I got home I noticed that it hadn't ticked; in fact, it didn't keep time at all, so I took it down to the local jeweller, and had him look at it. He got on his little stool and put his thing on his eye glass and took off the back of the watch and looked in it and reached over and got his tweezers and picked out something and it was a little piece of tissue paper. He unrolled it and looked at it and handed it to me and it said "if you ever come back here again we'll give you the works." (laughter).

I hope to communicate to you tonight. Commvmication is difficult, although not as much as I thought it might be. I have learned that we have many things in common as I've spent time up and down the hallways listening to you. We have had an ex- cellent visit here and I'd be remiss not to say thank you on behalf of myself, my wife, and I have a 12 year old daughter with me and another 12 year old friend with her, and we've enjoyed your hospitality, that was planned, and we've had a lot of unplanned hospitality. Last night as my wife and I made our way from the lobby we just wandered up and down the halls getting to our room and after about the third or fifth hallway my wife said "those men sure are good spirited," and I said, "j'es they are full of good spirits." But I felt very much at home and very much at ease. We have many things in common.

I hope I communicate what I have to say in a language you understand. I hope that you comprehend my Kansas accent, and forgive me for it. This is a beautiful hotel. I enjoyed the chandelier out here in the lobby. I was reminded of a time I preached in a Congregational Church. One of the Pastors of that congregation told me a story which he said was true. (I don't believe most Preachers' stories and I'm sure this wasn't the truth either), but he said that he had a good job and he'd enjoyed the congregation and they loved him and he loved them, especially the Clerk of the Board, and they were good friends together, they hunted together and all that, but he said the Church was abominable as far as having illumination enough for an evening service. You couldn't see to read the hymnal. You couldn't see to read the Bible and finally in a session one evening he said, I'd like to ask something. I haven't asked much since I've been here as a Pastor, but I'd like to have you buy a new chandelier. They talked about it and finally the Clerk stood up and said, I'm against it. And they voted it down. Later on that evening, the preacher saw the Clerk and said "Charlie, I don't understand that at all. You and I have been friends for a long time and that's the first time that you have really ever been against me and I'd like to know why". And Charlie said, "Well young man, I'd like to tell you something about that Chandelier you wanted. In the first place we can't afford it, in the second place if we bought it we don't have anybody that could play it (laughter) and in the third place what we really need around here are some better light fixtures." Oaughter). I have that trouble with com- 4 APPENDIX "D" munication at home and away from home and everywhere else. A lot of the problems I get involved in, in Lodge have to do with communication.

I want to give you a personal witness tonight. I want to witness to what I believe about Freemasonry and why. I am qualified for that and so are you, for yourselves, and the group of people with whom you communicate. In 1916 Robert Frost said "Two roads diverged in a yellow wood and sorry I could not travel both and be one traveller, long I stood and looked down one as far as I could to where it bent in the undergrowth, then took the other just as fair and having perhaps the better claim because it was grassy and wanted wear, though as for that the passing there had worn them equally about the same and both that morning equally lay in leaves no step had trodden flat. On I kept the first for another day yet knowing how way leads onto way I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh somewhere ages and ages hence, two woods diverged in a wood and I, I took and one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference."

I took a road in Freemasonry, a long time ago, 28 years, and I'm still an active Freemason and I spend a lot of time at it and I'd like to tell you why. I don't want to spend a lot of time to tell you about the kind of world in which I live, because you and I live in the same world. It has a lot of problems and I hear a lot of gloomy news about it. I know it has a lot of problems, I Uve with its problems day in and day out. I'm 50 years of age, the experts tell me that I'm in the minority, that over 90% of the world is younger than I am, and, therefore, I don't under- stand the world at all; 25% of all the people that have ever lived on the earth are alive today and that is part of our problem. It certainly has affected this part of the country. I drove through here 27 years ago in an old pickup truck with my bride of one year. I had long hair and wore a bandana around my head, camped out. We came up through the eastern coast and came over in Canada and all the way down and went back down through Nebraska and Oklahoma to home. There was nobody living here then. I hadn't been back that route until I came up this time. We never did get out of a city.

From Jesus Christ to Columbus, they tell me that in that 15 hundred jears we reached 500 million people on this earth. From Columbus to 1850, that 350 years, we reached one billion, from 1850 to 1925, that's 75 years, we reached two bilhon, from 1925 to 1960, that's 35 years, we reached three billion, from 1960 to 1975, that's 15 years, we'll reach four billion and at the present rate from 1975 to 1980, we'll reach five billion. That's a lot of people. We live in a very explosive world, where factors and causes build up and create all kinds of havoc for us. We talk about jet lag and I get some kind of feeling for travelling across time distance and I do a lot of travelling around the world and I get caught in a time lag as that, but I'm more caught up in the huge APPENDIX "D" 5 amount of shock involved in just the change in today's world, the structural change. They don't happen suddenly, they don't just happen by chance, they're the result of many factors that build up and just explode around us. I think of an illustration I read in The Changing Earth, The Green World, the little story about a cow on Shaeffers Ranch in North California on April 18th in 1906 at 5:13 a.m. That good old cow walked from the milk barn out to the pasture and in three seconds time dis- appeared, just her tail sticking up out of the ground because the earth had opened up and swallowed her, bang, had an earth- quake, didn't just happen, it took a long time for that to build up. All kinds of earthquakes build up. I buried a man before I came here. He had been 50 years' a Mason. When he grew up as a boy he had the same kind of transportation that Julius Caesar had. He had the same kind of communication that they had in the mid- dle ages. In his lifetime we had radio, air conditioning and T.V. and computers and assembly lines and atomic energy and 93% of all the information the world ever had came about in his life- time. I marvelled at the ability he had to stay alive as a human being, and he had it. That's shock that involves us and it involves Freemasonry. And I ask myself if I were 18 or 19 years old today (and in my jurisdiction you can petition for Masonry when you're 18) would I be interested in the Lodge? They tell me its impossible but I try to look at Freemasonry through the eyes of a young adult and ask myself what do I really see. Is there anything in it for me as a young adult today. Is there something there that's worthwhile in a world that's so difficult and traumatic and I say there is and the young adults in the area where I live are begin- ning to say there is! For I've watched the change become apparent in the lives of young adults today. I deal with hundreds of them every week, they are starting to move into real fundamental issues of life and ask important questions about it. I think Masonry has something to offer now. What I have to say is designed for you, not for somebody else and I assume (and I know what the word assume means, it makes an ass out of you and me if you assume too much), but I assume, at least, that you are the cream of the crop. The active people in Freemasonry in this great Jurisdiction and you are a great jurisdiction and you have the best public relations Officer in Kansas that you could ever have in Ben Graybill; that's all I've ever heard, if I want to get to a great Grand Lodge, I want to come to this one and you are right, it is! And I assume that the people here are the kind of people that understand and ought to understand what it is that makes Masomy tick and keep it alive and growing. I've kept a careful chart of Freemasonry in my Jurisdiction and we've had a sharp decline in numbers. But I make a prediction based on what I know, that before the Grand Lodge line of which I'm Grand Master at this time, before the Senior Deacon gets up to be Grand Master that curve will begin to rise, because Free- masonry has inherent in it that which is important in the build- ing and changing of the world in which we live, that's ours if you want to use it. And I want to lay it on you to use it tonight. 6 APPENDIX "D"

A long time ago a man said give me a place to stand and I can move the world. His name was Archimedes, he ought to have been a Mason. He knew the real principles of geometr)', if I have a place to stand and if I have a lever long enough and if I have a hard place, a fulcrum, give me a place outside the earth. I can as one human being move the planet earth. And I think Freemasonry offers that today. It has a place to stand, a place to stand in trust in God, faith in the eternal, real faith, I don't mean belief, I mean faith, there's a difference. Now I'll get into theology and the Archbishop will wipe me out. I have a lot of people say they believe in God, but that doesn't mean anything intellectually, I'm talking about the kind of man who puts his faith in God, really trusts his life with him, assumes His being, understands that God's going to win, that's it! He stakes, he gambles on it. God is present and God will win! The other day our local paper had a large write up on Evel Knievel, the motor cyclist who was going to jump, or try to jump snake River Canyon. My neighbour whose an inspector for the F.B.I, said, "do you beheve he can do it" and I said, "John, I believe he can" and then I laughed and he said whats the matter and I said "I believe he can but I don't have faith, I wouldn't ride with him", (laughter) Thats what I mean by the difference between belief and faith. I wouldn't go with him if he went. But I think Masonry believes that God knows whats going on and we put our faith in it. The kind of man that keeps Masonry alive is the kind of man that young adults are looking for today, if he puts his faith in the eternal, rides with Him. A lot of people in the world don't have that today. I got off the plane in Kansas City and as I went out by the place where they receive the packages and I saw a beautiful English bird dog, we have them at home and we hunt, and I said "gosh thats a beautiful English setter, where's it going", and the porter shook his head and said "you don't know where he's going, I don't know where he's going and he don't know where he's going cause he chewed up his own shipping tags", (laughter) A lot of people have chewed up their own shipping tags and you know it. Now, I think and still believe that Freemasonry offers a man a place to stand, faith in God which means he knows the direction of the Universe, faith in himself as a human being, he trusts himself, he tnists his own integrity. There's a great study by a Canadian on young adults, its called "Faith and Identity in Young Adults in Todays World", its just published recently in Canada and I want to read a statement from that book that sums up what I think is important. "An increasing maturity on the part of our young people demands teaching forms of creativity not just the assimilation of informa- tion. Young adults today are not interested in just assimilating in- formation, they are interested in the opportunity to be creative with that information and to use it." Thats the truth. I have faith in young adults today, I hope, you know you don't judge them by their outward appearance, its pretty dangerous to judge things by the outer package. I have three boys, one 24 and two 20 and sometimes their outer appearance is kind of rough and I see the APPENDIX "D" 7 picture of their old man when he was about that age too, and I don't think I'd ever trust him with anything. I hope that your faith in young adults is not prejudiced by their outward ap- pearance. I warn you about outside appearances. Be very careful. I have a great deal of faith today. I think thats the place to stand, not in suspicion, not in misjudgement, but in faith and trust in our Universe, in human beings.

We have a hard rock to use for a fulcrum in Freemasonry if we want to use it and I call it our sense of fraternity. Thats the Fulcrum! The sense of our being one people, everywhere you go. We have trouble with it in my jurisdiction. The average person in my jurisdiction out in Central Kansas thinks that every Mason is white, a Methodist and a farmer. He just assumes that. We have a lot of Methodists, no Anglicans out there, a lot of Methodists. He doesn't really understand, I don't think, that Freemasonry is Universal but thats the hard rock of our being and don't forget it. The universality of what we have. You have to travel to understand it, you have to assume it and I felt that here, I don't know why but, when I understand and I com- municate with another Freemason 1 have a sense of trust with that person and a sense of affinity with that person and I com- prehend that Fraternity to be the hard rock, the Fulcrum on which I lever things into being. One hot afternoon I got off a plane at a Middle East Airport we had come from a city where there had been a machine gunning and we'd been locked up in the airport there for many many hours and finally free and searched, body searched and luggage searched and self searched and researched until I didn't think there was anything left of me or my luggage. I had a party of about 18 Freemasons with me and we were enjoying a fraternal trip. The young man as we came off the plane who had a sub machine gun cradled in his arms with his finger on the trigger pointed at everybody that came off, I was used to that by then, you know I just assumed that I was going to die, said my prayers a half a dozen times and had been blessed by everybody I could think of, but he said, as I walked by him, "Doctor Haggard, please go to the Customs Office." And I just kept walking, I had never seen him before and I knew he'd never seen me before but I knew he had seen my picture some- where. I walked into the customs office and the officer in charge, said Doctor Haggard, you and your party of Masons please go out and pick up your luggage off the ramp where they are unloading it, we've arranged for you to be escorted through here and around customs and on your way. As we came through customs the Master of a local Lodge met me. He was as dark-skinned as I am white. He claimed to be an ancient Druid in his religion. He was as gracious as he could be. Through his introduction, I met Masters of Lodges who politically, religiously, culturally, racially, were entirely separated from me, yet we were joined by one thing. We never knew each other before. We'll probably never see each other again, but we were Freemasons. That's Fraternity,

and thats the hard rock and if you lose it, I think we're through. 8 APPENDIX "D '

You need a lever if you're going to move and the lever in Freemasonry is called charity, or service. I hope you do a better job of it than we do at home. I think most of our people are born with a silver spoon in their mouth and they haven't stirred since. I had a letter from a local Lodge that had a brother in distress, what was Grand Lodge going to do to him, and I wrote him quite a warm response, 1 hoped they understood, but thev didn't understand, they came back again. They "hoped" that I would do something about the brother that needed help. Hope! they hoped that somebody would do something, hope is a, hope is an elephant with his tail tied to a daisy hanging over a steep cliff, thats what hope is. There isn't anybody to do it, if you don't do it yourself. The lever of service, to really get something done, the lever of chaj'ity. Lodges that are alive in our com- munity not only have a place to stand in their faith in human beings, not only understand that Freemasonry is universal and have a deep sense of fraternity but they do something, they serve their community, they serve each other, they do not just serve themselves. They take care not of only themselves, but others, and they do it anonymously, but they get it done and it doesn't stay anonymous. I've heard story after story of the Lodges in our community that are alive, they didn't really understand why they are alive until we researched it back and found out that they are alive because they are engaged in the business in which we're about, which is service. To serve somebody. Anytime you tell me that you have nothing to do in your community and there's nothing to be done, then I know your stupid, or blind, or ignorant or you don't live there, or you don't want to do anything. I think service, the lever of service, is the one real leverage we have in the earth. And I have ledges that are dead in my jurisdiction and they are dead because they refuse to serve anybody but them- selves, they have become selfish; Ingrown! I have lodges that are alive because they actually are working with somebody and therefore save themselves. I met a stranger in the night whose light had ceased to shine. I paused and I let him light his lamp from mine. A tempest came and shook the world about and when the storm had died, my lamp was out. But back to me this brother came his lamp was glowing fine, he lifed up his precious flame and from it lighted mine.

You can move the world, you have a place to stand in faith, you have a hard rock in which to put a lever which is called fraternity and you have a lever that's called service and all you need then really to get the job done is for the man to stand there and do it and that's where you come in. Thank you. Applause.

Appreciation: R.W. BRO. ERIC NANCEKIVELL.

Most Wor. Bro. Forrest Haggard — on behalf of the Grand Master, Officers, members and guests of this Grand Lodge of Canada in the Province of Ontario may I express to you our APPENDIX "D" 9 sincere appreciation for coming here tonight and giving us this superb address. We are led to expect in this Grand Jurisdiction an outstanding speaker each year, but tonight we have heard a speaker of exceptional quality, of great current Masonic interest and highly entertaining. I have had the opportunity of reading "The Clergy and the Craft", written by our guest speaker, and I would heartily recommend it, I almost prescribe but its not that kind of a book, for any member here this evening, it is most thor- oughly researched and is written as only an ordained Minister could do. I also read your itinerary in Most Wor. Bro. Ben Gray- bill's excellent publication "The Kansas Mason" and how one man can accomplish so much in a given time is almost beyond com- prehension. To use a familiar expression, its enough to scare the pants of any Deputy Grand Master or any other one aspiring to the position of Grand Master. Kansas must indeed be proud of you, and we in this Grand Jurisdiction are most proud and hon- oured to have had you as our guest speaker on this occasion. It is said with a few simple words, but it embodies a great deal of respect and admiration and sincere appreciation when I say thank you so much. INDEX TO PROCEEDINGS — 1974
