Why is he called a "Mason?"
Foi- many centuries, the ancient
craft of builders - masons who
worked with stone erecting temples,
cathedrals, and public wor - sh-ared
high standards of workmanship and
conduct. The brotherhood of these
stonemasons worked in stone and
were designated as Apprentices,
Fellows and Master Masons. The
tools of their trade were the square,
compass, plumbline, level, trowel and
othe inslruments of precision work-
manship.
Over two hundred years ago, the
great principals of operating masons
were adopted by countless others
who did not necessarily work in
stone. Ever since, others have joined
voluntarily in thods of local
groups called 'lodges ' that are dedi-
cated to the same principals of broth-
erhood, rectitude, sobriety, charity,
and motivated by a common dedica-
tion to high ethical and spiritual pur-
poses.
Using the words and titles of the
ancient craft of masonry, Masons
today band together for building, not
smacmres of stone, but men of char-
acter...'II)ere.is a vigorous force in the
ancient msutution of the "ledge" that
continually gives fresh meaning to
toda masomc goals.
Mason insists that every man
has the right to freedom of worship
and freedom of expression, the rigtit
to vote according to his conscience
and the right to a public education.
A Mason honors other men by
respe.c.ting each mans dignity, by
assisting a brother Mason, or any man
in need and by devotion to his com-
munity's welf',ire.
Several readings were shared.
The meeting adjourned and Bid
Euchre was played- Norrna Larew
furnished prizes to Ida Walsh, high;
Roma Burr, most lones, and Laura
Yochem- low. Refreshments were
served by Esther Lincoln.

10,2001.

from "Headlines of the Month"
There were interesting comparisons
