22 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
GRAND MASTERS ADDRESS
To the Officers and Members of the Most Worshipful the Grand Lodge
A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.
My Brethren:
Twilight time for many is the most nostalgic period of the day. What
better time to place pen to paper and recount the dreams, ideologies,
recommendations and results of the activities in Masonry during this last
year.
Welcome to Toronto, as we celebrate our 133rd Annual
Communication of the Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the
Province of Ontario. This is a time to open our hearts to all Masons and
reciprocate warm fraternal greetings to our distinguished guests.
Why are we here?
We are here to pay tribute, to tender our regrets, to express thanks, to
listen, learn and be educated, to be entertained, to reveal efforts of our
labours, to recommend and instigate our programmes, we are here to
motivate and foster enthusiasm.
We are here to perpetuate Masonry.
For many of us. Masonry began in very humble environments. For
many we harbour memories and nostalgia for exemplary Masons. In the
quietude and solitude of my inner mind, I salute those Masons who have
made this day possible.
This past year has been a rewarding experience for many Masons. It
is with grateful humility that I have shared in this exhilarating experience
with them and to have the privilege of seeing, hearing and feeling Mason-
ry come to life in all corners of this vast jurisdiction.
PAST GRAND MASTERS
We are not islands unto ourselves. We rely on and welcome the
advice of our Past Grand Masters. They carry years of experience and
sage wisdom. Successive Grand Masters in this jurisdiction have
depended on their counsel to steer us on a straight and narrow course,
and to help preserve our traditions and our landmarks.
I respect and thank each of them.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. IWs :;,
NECROLOGY
Somewhere between birth and death man makes his mark in life.
Several pillars of Masonry have been whisked away to the everlast-
ing sunset this past year.
WALLACE M. SECORD
A few short days after our Grand Lodge Communication, on July 22.
1987. R.W. Bro. Wallace M. Secord died. An outstanding, loyal and devot-
ed Mason, a true friend, active in community and business circles, as well
as both the York and Scottish Rites of Masonry. He was a Past Master of
both Maple Leaf Lodge No. 103. St. Catharines and Niagara Lodge No. 2.
Niagara-on-the-Lake. was D.D.G.M. of Niagara District A. 1970-71 and
had been a member of the Board of General Purposes since 1983. serving
on the Long Range Planning. Lodge Buildings. Masonic Holdings and
Deceased Brethren Committees. He leaves his wife Lois, son Charles, two
daughters Judith (Mrs. Roger Reid) and Sharon.
MRS. MARGARET WRIGHT
We were saddened to hear that Mrs. Margaret Wright, the beloved
wife of the "Dean" of our Past Grand Masters. M.W. Bro. William L.
Wright, was called to her final rest on March 3. 1988. We cherish her
pleasant charm in our hearts and remember her placid and congenial
personality. We share a common loss.
NEW IDEAS
A few housekeeping rules, many guidelines and recommendations
have surfaced this year in this jurisdiction. I recount a few in the field of
reorganization and administration.
Redistribution
Our Grand Lodge has grown considerably in the past fifty years
without an overall restructuring of our district boundaries. A "White"
paper was presented by this Grand Master recommending an expansion
of the number of districts from 43 to 52. The Grand Lodge Long Range
Planning Committee are accumulating revisions, suggestions and recom-
mendations from all districts and are compiling the accumulated materi-
al received into a comprehensive report which will be distributed before
April 1989. A vote for adoption will be presented at our 134th Annual
Communication in July 1989.
24 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
Committees of the Board
With graceful consent all Past Grand Masters retired from their
positions as Chairmen of several Standing and Special Committees of
Grand Lodge, with the exception of the Special Committee on Awards
(The William Mercer Wilson Medal). The composition of this particular
committee was established by Grand Lodge on July 10, 1945. The twelve
Standing Committees were restructured, revitalized and rehabilitated.
The Committee on the Condition of Masonry was expanded from a com-
mittee of one in 1984 to fifteen members in 1987. This committee was pre-
sented with a sixty point agenda to commence their year in August 1987.
Two new Special Committees were formed: (a) Computerization, (b)
Recognition. The productive and successful accomplishments of their
united efforts, and yours, will be revealed to you today and tomorrow as
their respective reports are presented.
Computerization
This Grand Lodge recognizes the many advantages of
computerizing our records, especially our membership statistics,
accounting and historical data. Word Processing alone will contribute
savings of several thousands of dollars annually in our printing expenses.
We are extremely fortunate to recognize and welcome R. W Bro. Kenneth
Whiting to the Grand Lodge staff. Bro. Whiting is a specialist and expert
in this field of modern technology.
Input to a tested system of computer hardware and software should
become a reality during this coming year.
June Installations and April Fiscal Year Ends
Masonry in Ontario is organized like an octopus, with many waving
arms. Ofttimes one arm does not know what the other arm is doing or one
arm is isolated and motionless while the others are waving and working.
In an attempt to reorganize, stabilize and synchronize our total
administration, we recommend a parallel of lodge installation dates to
coincide with the election and investiture of the Grand Lodge personnel.
Most lodges in Ontario are in darkness during July and August. June was
the month in closest proximity for a logical melding of all systems. Com-
munication and leadership are the most important facets under consider-
ation to ensure our perpetuity. We MUST unite under a common front
and then tell our story - once to all, then repeat and repeat until we are
paddling our canoe in the same direction. With the implementation of
computerization in the near future, I envision a closer integration of the
TORONTO. ONTARIO. 1988 25
total financial and economic structure of both Grand Lodge and the con-
stituent lodges. April fiscal year ends for all makes economic and logical
sense.
COMMUNICATION
The Grand Lodge Newsletter
This little book continues to grow with new subscriptions and new
contributions of articles and informative short stories. The editor, R.W.
Bro. Robert Barnett has launched a campaign to create an awareness of
interest with quality and quantity.
A Guideline on Discussing Membership in Masonry
This pamphlet was prepared by the Public Information and Com-
munications Committee of Grand Lodge. This is our answer to the per-
plexing problem of the question of proper and improper solicitation.
Lodge Summons
September 8, 1987, a twenty page report was completed by this Grand
Master and addressed to all 652 Worshipful Masters and their Lodge
Secretaries, in an attempt to improve the quality of the Lodge Summons.
Suggestions, recommendations and basic observations revealed the
strengths and weaknesses of all lodges. Statistics are being recorded on
progressive improvements.
The Grand Master's Eyeopener
This monthly publication contains the results of all Grand Lodge
Committee deliberations and recommendations. Several interesting and
exciting ideas are gleaned from the constituent lodge summonses and
lodge newsletters. It is a vehicle to promote enthusiasm, motivation and
participation among the membership and inform the membership of the
Grand Lodge programmes and activities in the districts and the lodges. It
includes highlights from visitations to other jurisdictions and confer-
ences attended, also the agenda and addresses given at District Grand
Master's Receptions. It is a publication with a two-way flow. The May
issue alone contained twenty-six pages. The Eyeopener is mailed to the 43
D.D.G.M.s, all Past Grand Masters and all elected and appointed mem-
bers of the Board of General Purposes. The intention is to have copies
duplicated and posted in all lodge rooms for all Masons to read. Each
month one lodge is recognized for its outstanding summons, and a copy
of this particular summons is mailed together with the Eyeopener as an
example for others to emulate.
26 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
The Grand Lodge Bulletin
This Grand Lodge publication is produced for every Mason in the
jurisdiction only twice each year. We are indebted to the editorship of
R.W. Bro. R. Wilson McConnell. This year we expanded the March issue
to twice the original format. For the first time we included photographs. A
pictoral documentary of the Grand Lodge Memorial Building was
included in the March 1988 issue. We shall continue with this format and
we trust you enjoy the "new look." Consideration of an expansion to four
issues per year is currently under discussion.
Setting the Record Straight
Four basic but pertinent questions are answered in this expertly
prepared news release on Freemasonry. Several lodges have placed this
repro in local newspapers to inform the public and increase the
awareness of Masonry in the community and enhance our public image.
Many queries from interested readers have reached the office of the
Grand Secretary.
STANDARDIZED LOGO
/
Masonry has no registered trademark. The Square and Compasses
circumventing the letter "G" has been published in many styles, forms
and colours. We have now standardized our logo and recommend its
adoption. Camera ready art (graphics) has been distributed to every lodge
in this jurisdiction. It is now recognized as our standardized logo. Dis-
play it with pride.
FLAGS
It is recommended that each lodge display, on standards, at least two
flags in the lodge room.
(a) The Canadian Flag
(b) The Ontario Ensign
If the lodge is located within 100 km of the United States border and/
or reciprocal visits with a United States lodge are a regular occurrence,
then the flag of the United States of America should also be displayed.
It is further recommended that at least one flag pole be erected on the
grounds of each lodge. If one flag is present it should be the Canadian
Flag.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. IW8 27
BULLETIN BOARDS
Separate and distinct general guidelines, regulations and
recommendations for the purchase, erection and use of lodge Bulletin
Boards have been distributed to all lodges. The Worshipful Master
should delegate a member to supervise placement and to keep all
postings current.
GRAND MASTER'S BANQUET
July 20. 1988 - M.W. Bro. Robert C. Singer will deliver the keynote
address. An extremely talented and gifted P.G.M. of the Grand Lodge of
New York. One of the outstanding Masons of this century. We are
extremely fortunate to welcome, once again, Bro. Singer to our Grand
Lodge.
LODGE COMMITTEES
To date, the selection of lodge committees has been left to the discre-
tion and autonomy of the respective lodges. Three especial committees
are recommended to be added to the existing slate of lodge committees.
(a) Mentors Programme Committee
(b) Reception Committee
(c) Lodge Building Committee
DISTRICT COMMITTEES
It is recommended each District appoint a Long Range Planning
Committee, directly responsible to the Grand Lodge Long Range
Planning Committee. There are several Long Range Proposals on the
Tracing Board and this committee would facilitate a more rapid means of
communication.
MEMBERSHIP RETENTION
There are only two variables that we have control over to increase the
quality and quantity of our membership. They are:
(a) The initiation of new candidates
(b) The reduction of the number of demits and suspensions
Several effervescent programmes are on stream to accomplish our
goals. We are succeeding in reversing our statistical trend. The constant
membership decline we have been experiencing for over twenty-five years
28 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
is finally levelling out. Our Membership Programme includes the follow-
ing:
Mentors Programme
This concept was introduced to our jurisdiction during the tenure of
M.W. Bro. A. Lou Copeland in 1986 and is now administered by the
Grand Lodge Committee on the Condition of Masonry. It is composed of
a standardized set of prepared papers, geared to instruct the potential
candidate, inform and follow through with him during the three degrees
and reinforce his education and confidence for one year after he has
completed his Master Mason's Degree. Testimonials have proven its suc-
cess. This programme will become mandatory and will be continued.
This programme was revised in 1987.
Publishing Complete Dues Structure - Membership Retention
Guidelines have been distributed to all lodges outlining a sequence
of steps to reduce nonpayment of dues, demits and suspensions by:
(i) Informing the membership (a reminder and update) at least twice
yearly of the complete dues structure via the lodge summons,
(ii) Invoicing Dues,
(iii) Personal contact - personal interviews by specifically chosen, well
trained committee members,
(iv) Finally when all avenues have been exhausted and upon request,
the Grand Master will forward a personal letter.
OPEN HOUSES
April and May were declared membership months in 1988. Open
Houses and the concept to make the community aware of the presence of
Masonry will be repeated in 1989. Special financial allowances are avail-
able for each lodge to assist in prepared media "advertisement" on Free-
masonry.
Several independent ideas have been implemented to improve our
Public Relations and Public Image.
LODGE SIGNAGE
Primarily an ambitious programme to create interest in the
community that Freemasonry is present, alert and alive. Secondarily to
augment a strong feeling of pride and esprit de corps among the
membership. When a new sign is to be erected now, only the Grand
Lodge approved standard sign should be considered. Existing signage
TORONTO. ONTARIO. 198X 29
already in place is not affected. Grand Lodge subsidizes each lodge in the
purchase of a new approved sign with a grant of $200.00. It is our aim that
all 380 lodge buildings will see the need to standardize and purchase a
new sign for their lodge. We MUST exhibit increased community pride
and awareness.
COMMUNITY ENTRANCE SIGNS
In 1988-89 twelve test sites will receive community entrance signs
revealing the presence of Masonry. Grand Lodge has made generous
allowances to defray some of the cost by the lodges so chosen to
participate in this programme. The reassessment of the value and
rewards from this programme will determine its expansion on a
jurisdictional basis.
CODICILS, BEQUESTS
These are delicate but very approachable subjects that must be
addressed to ensure Masonry maintains a financial stability in the future.
Members are being alerted to remember the countless happy hours of
enjoyment they received from Freemasonry while on this earth and they
are reminded to provide a token of appreciation to Masonry in their
estate planning.
Regalia and Jewels are expensive and the cost of replacement spirals
each year. Codicils in wills shall ensure their return to the respective
lodge from whence they came and permit refurbishing, recycling and
reuse.
INSURANCE
The recommendation to provide a paid-up life insurance policy
making some department of Freemasonry the beneficiary was casually
introduced in 1988. Future plans will include a more comprehensive
study, which will also include the possibility of a single insurance carrier
for the 652 lodges in this jurisdiction and Grand Lodge.
HONORARY AND LIFE MEMBERSHIPS
WITHOUT PROPER FUNDING
Several lodges have completed the task of updating, rewriting and
publishing new lodge bylaws this year. Many changes include the total
dues structure of the lodge. Memberships not properly funded or
actuarily planned have proven to create serious financial difficulties in
lodge financial planning. To attest and object to this serious situation
30 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COM Ml IN RATION
which imposes an excessive burden on annual dues paying members
now, and definitely for Masons later to join the lodge, this Grand Master
has refused to accept Honorary or Life Memberships into lodges
UNLESS properly funded. Consultation with the Finance Committee of
Grand Lodge is recommended before presenting finalized lodge dues
bylaws for ratification.
NEW GRAND LODGE PUBLICATIONS
A COMPENDIUM to assist all Masons in lodge leadership, for the
planning of lodge functions, preparing yearly agendas, to aid in the
organization and administration and to provide a rapid cross index refer-
ence, will be published and be on sale by July 1989. The Deputy Grand
Master and his skillful committee of writers have proven their creative
ability and journalistic skills.
THE GRAND LODGE MEMORIAL SERVICE is being rewritten
to include cremation services. An introductory preamble will prove bene-
ficial to the Worshipful Master, to assist in providing a dignified, well
organized and memorable service for all Masons and the family of the
deceased.
"0" BOOKLET for the petitioner is being updated, rewritten and will
be published this year for distribution.
THE CHARITY PAMPHLET will be reproduced and updated once
the current information has been received and compiled from all
D.D.G.M.s.
CHARITY
Today the Masonic Foundation of Ontario, with the co-operation of
Grand Lodge, will "kick off the million dollar funding campaign to
combat the scourge of Alcohol and Drug Abuse Among Youth in our
society. Our project is primarily established to aid in the education of our
youth. The programme funding will commence July, 1988, and will be
successfully completed by July, 1989. It is recommended that a concerted
and unified effort by all lodges and the entire membership be maintained
to ensure our goal.
Twenty-three Grand Lodges in the United States have combined
their talents to eradicate this drug and chemical blight on our society.
Our united efforts will assuredly have great impact.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. 19XK 31
It is recognized there are several district and constituent lodge
projects administered to fund specific charitable organizations. Grand
Lodge commends all who have dedicated their time, talent and money to
these projects.
Kahlil Gibran said:
"It is wise to give when asked
But it is better to give unasked,
through understanding"
TEMPLES, HALLS AND LODGES
When out for a Masonic evening, "I am going to lodge." Every
monthly summons should refer to the lodge name and number, and
include the address of the lodge without any descriptive adjectives.
HONOURS
This Grand Lodge recognizes our distinguished M.W. Bro. N. R.
Richards, P.G.M., Custodian of the Work, who recently was the recipient
of the "Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food Medal" on the occasion
of the One Hundredth Anniversary of the establishment of the Ministry
in this Province.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
This year the portfolio of all D.D.G.M.s and the members of the
Grand Lodge Board of General Purposes has increased dramatically.
Their workload has consumed almost every "free" hour of their days. We
are extremely grateful for their several progressive contributions and for
the obvious successful productivity resulting from their labors.
We have freely tapped the talent and expertise of many
knowledgeable, dedicated and loyal Masons. They have given
unstintingly of their wisdom and counsel. We thank each of them.
The Grand Secretary and his congenial staff deserve especial
accolades and commendations. They have condescended to alter many
of their weekends, schedules and evenings to accommodate the wishes of
others to assist in the ceremonials of this Grand Lodge at district and
constituent lodges.
A very special thank you to the talented lodge organists and pipers
who put music, zest, happiness and spirit into our Masonic meetings.
May they continue to play what they know and what we love to hear for
many more years.
To the Worshipful Masters and Officers of all 652 lodges, your posi-
tions are of such magnitudinous importance, I cannot dwell on the sever-
al details presented to me. We appreciate your singular and united
endeavours.
34 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
It was with a sense of profound loss that I received and reluctantly
accepted the resignation of M.W. Bro. James N. Allan (P.G.M.) as Grand
Treasurer. Bro. Allan's service to this Grand Lodge over many, many
years and especially during this past decade as Grand Treasurer, speaks
for itself.
How pleased I was to act upon M.W. Bro. Allan's suggestion and
appoint M. W. Bro. A. Lou Copeland to complete his term to July 1988.
On March 31, 1988. R.W. Bro. John W. Millar. Chairman of the
Grand Lodge Committee on Audit and Finance tendered his resignation.
The Grand Master and this Grand Lodge laud justifiable
commendations on Bro. Millar for his devoted, loyal and high
performance past services. R.W. Bro. T. R. Davies accepted to assume the
Chairmanship for 1988-89 and complete the term remaining in this year.
With rueful acceptance. Grand Lodge received the resignation of
R.W. Bro. William Finlay, Chairman of the Grand Lodge Committee on
Long Range Planning. Bro. Finlay is an astute, active and extremely
capable Mason. We shall miss his input and creative thinking on our
Grand Lodge Board of General Purposes. R.W. Bro. Neil Britton
(Belleville) was appointed Acting Chairman to complete Bro. Finlay's
term.
R.W. Bro Earl Jones (Leamington) has withdrawn his name as a
candidate for election to the Board of General Purposes. We applaud his
"Official Visit" publication and also his hours of good advice, friendship
and camaraderie. We trust he will be able to formulate future plans and
reconsider other terms serving this Grand Lodge. We wish him well.
In January 1988 R.W. Bro. James Cameron Guy retired from the
Grand Lodge staff as Supervisor of Benevolence. We thank Bro. Guy for
his devoted service and several contributions. He shall always be
remembered for his good humour, cheerfulness, friendliness and his
numerous contributions in the administration of our Grand Lodge, over
the past twenty-five years.
R.W. Bro. James David Broomhead, Grand Historian, was afflicted
with a stroke and is currently taking therapy in Thunder Bay where he is
slowly recuperating. Bro. Broomhead is a pillar of strength in Masonry,
especially in Northern Ontario. He is a staunch promoter of the Craft
which directly influenced the Masonic life of this Grand Master. We wish
him a speedy recovery to good health.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. IWS 35
DEDICATION
On April 30. 1988. Hammond Lodge No. 327 (Wardsville) was
dedicated by this Grand Master, ably assisted by M.W. Bro. R. E. Davies.
P.G.M.. Grand Secretary, and supporting staff from Grand Lodge, several
Grand Lodge Officers, including M.W. Bro. B. B. Foster and other
brethren from the Chatham District. The facilities of this Masonic
complex are fantastic. The lodge Building Committee and those
uncounted Masons who worked so hard to complete this beautiful edifice
for Masonry must be justly proud of their accomplishments. The sod
turning took place August 29. 1987. The success of this project was due in
part to a large bequest from the estate of the late Bro. Arthur Harold.
Another testimonial to the value of a bequest to Masonry. This proves
that when Masons are supplied with finances - they have the time and
talent - then no chore is too large or too difficult.
CORNERSTONES
A revitalization of this impressive Masonic ritual of laying corner-
stones has created public interest in many sectors. Two of the most recent
occasions were:

LODGE BUILDINGS
There are two new Lodge Buildings currently under construction
(Oil Springs and Gore Bay) and plans for several new lodges are being
laid out on the drafting boards. There has been a remarkable
improvement in both the external as well as the internal beauty of several
existing lodges. The improvement in our community image has acceler-
ated proportionately. Young men, potential candidates, must now be
impressed with the lodge enhancement programmes as they pass by our
lodges and view our updated buildings in the community. In-depth stud-
ies of multi-tenant lodges are being conducted to proffer guidelines and
recommendations in the best interests of our public image and public
relations in the community.

RECOGNITION OF 100 YEARS OF ACTIVE SERVICE

Stanley Lodge No. 426, Toronto - as of September 6, 1990
THE WILLIAM MERCER WILSON MEDAL
The recipients of this award merit special attention in this Grand
Lodge. This award is presented to a Master Mason who has not been, nor
will he likely ever be a Worshipful Master of a lodge. Outstanding
devotion, loyalty and continuous contribution to the Craft and the
community are a few of the parameters to warrant consideration when
selecting a recipient. This year I am pleased to announce, with personal
commendations and congratulations from this Grand Lodge, the
following recipients:
Bro. Joseph C. Sims - St John's No. 209a
Bro. Richard Lee Coulter - Mimosa No. 576
Bro. Alexander A. Hay - St. Andrew's No. 661
Bro. Nicholas Samuel Mahara - Fidelity No. 231
Bro. T Fred Kingsmill - Centennial No. 684
Bro. William H. Linge - Delta No. 634
It is with regret that I learned of the passing of:
Bro. Charles Wellington Kenneth Booth of University Lodge No.
496, who was awarded the William Mercer Wilson Medal on January 18,
1974, and passed away on May 30, 1988.
Bro. Richard Lee Coulter of Mimosa Lodge No. 576, who was
awarded the William Mercer Wilson Medal on September 8. 1987, and
passed away on April 9, 1988.
THE GRAND MASTER'S MERITORIOUS AWARD
Until this year we had no mode of recognition of meritorious service
for Masons from the ranks of Master Mason to Past Grand Master in this
jurisdiction, save an appointment of Grand Lodge Rank. This year a very
prestigious insignia has been designed, which will be awarded with great
discrimination, selectivity and very judiciously to an outstanding Mason
who may or may not be a member Mason of this Grand Jurisdiction. He
must have proven to be exceptional in devotion, loyalty, zeal and
assiduity in both Masonic and community circles.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. 1988 37
From the submissions received I proudly announce the names of two
outstanding Masons to be the first recipients of this award.
R.W. Bro. Archibald (Archie) Campbell, Ionic Lodge No. 229
Brampton, Toronto District 1.
R.W. Bro. Edsel C. Steen. Pnyx Lodge No. 312, Wallaceburg,
Chatham District.
I acknowledge the countless hours of time, talent and energy
expended by the Grand Lodge Committee on Recognition in securing
this award and documenting the information for presentations.
THE DR. WILLIAM R. PELLOW BURSARY
With a deep sense of humility and pride, on May 21, 1988, 1 received
notice of the establishment of a Masonic Bursary to be offered to the
students of Chapleau High School. Lome Lodge No. 622 brethren
announced the bursary on the occasion of the Reception and Banquet
(Algoma East District) honouring this Grand Master, which was held in
Chapleau, Ontario, hometown of the Grand Master and his Mother
Lodge.
SPECIAL PRESENTATIONS TO DISTINGUISHED GUESTS
This year the official representatives to other Grand Lodges will
present their respective Grand Masters or delegate a six foot by three foot
silk flag.
United States delegates shall receive the Canadian Flag
Canadian delegates shall receive the Ontario Ensign Flag
DISQUIET HARMONY
On rare occasions there surfaces in this jurisdiction, isolated pockets
of disharmony, which drastically upsets the atmosphere of congeniality
and happiness of a lodge. Petty grievances are swelled to
disproportionate misunderstandings, cliques, bickering and the black
ball scenario rears its ugly head. This Grand Master will not tolerate such
unmasonic conduct and drastic, but assured recourse to re-establish
peace and good will shall be introduced. Be advised accordingly.
38 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
AUSTRALIA
Plans are being formulated for a group to accompany the Grand
Master to attend The United Grand Lodge of Victoria, on the occasion of
the Centenary Celebration, Grand Installation and International
Masonic Conference. Melbourne, Victoria. Australia, March 12 - March
19, 1989. Details will be announced in the Grand Master's Eyeopener and
the Grand Lodge November issue of The Bulletin.
SUMMATION
So many have contributed so much. Thank You.
I have been criticized of being enthusiastic, of creating excessive
communication material, too many new ideas, too many programmes
and of demanding too much. I confess quietly to all of the above. I also
refuse to tolerate apathy and indifference, to condone indifference to
progressive change and to sit still if we are to prosper, be successful, be
happy and survive (in Masonry) in perpetuity.
Creative thinking is essential. We must set fires under the front
burners and serve exciting menus to hungry Masons. We must breathe
new life into worn and tired out bodies. We must have strategic well laid
plans on our tracing boards, to interest young men in Freemasonry. We
must declare ourselves and show others the majesty and beauty of our
wonderful fraternity.
To stand idle, is to witness our demise. We must advance daily, we
must instigate, plan, participate and promulgate. We must possess
dynamic enthusiasm, instill motivation and infect others with our energy
and vitality, if Masonry is to progress.
WE MAY NOT HAVE IT ALL TOGETHER,
BUT TOGETHER WE HAVE IT ALL.
Sincerely and fraternally.

42 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON
DECEASED BRETHREN
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. W. Earl Rawson. Chairman,
and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro.
Rawson, it was 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 with reverence, humility and brotherly love that we. the Committee on
Deceased Brethren, present this report.
To those of us who have walked a few steps with R. W. Bro. Wallace M.
Secord. who passed to the Grand Lodge Above, we realize now how much our
lives have been enriched and in so many ways how he fulfilled his duty as a man.
a husband and a father. I am sure. Brethren, that your lives too have been deeply
touched by those Brethren who have been close to you and have provided a
specialness in our Masonic Fraternity.
In the quietness of the next few moments let us remember those who have
passed to the Grand Lodge Above, for the manner in which they have touched
our lives and to whom we owe a debt of gratitude.
The effort and the sincerity of the officers and members of Lodges in the
planning and conducting of Memorial Services are to be commended. Our sensi-
tivity and attention to the particular needs of members of the family at this time
and our continuing concern are. I am sure, most appreciated and. indeed, demon-
strates a genuine appreciation of our Brethren.
On behalf of every Brother in this Grand Jurisdiction, special thanks are due
to this year's Grand Chaplain. R.W. Bro. Cerwyn Davies. His devotion to the
Craft is an inspiration to us all.
What'er my God ordains is right
Here will I take my stand
Though sorrow, need or death make earth
To me a desert land
My Father's care is round me there
He holds me. that I shall not fall
And so to him I leave it all.
S. Rodigast
We will observe a moment's silence.

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:
We have examined the summary of resources arising from cash transactions
of Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario as at April 30, 1988
and the related statements of receipts and disbursements for the year then ended.
Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards,
and accordingly included such tests and other procedures as we considered necessary
in the circumstances.
In our opinion the financial statements present fairly the summary of
resources arising from cash transactions of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in
the Province of Ontario as at April 30, 1988 and its receipts and disbursements
for the year then ended in accordance with the accounting principles stated in note
1, applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.

GRAND TREASURER'S REPORT
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 always a pleasure to serve our Grand Lodge and now for the first
time as your Grand Treasurer I submit the Annual Report, together with
a brief update. It includes the financial statements for the year ending
April 30, 1988.
Firstly. I must extend recognition and pay respect to the Immediate
Past Grand Treasurer, M.W Bro. James N. Allan, who retired recently, in
his eleventh year in that office. During his term of office, our resources
increased from $1,942,156 to $2,816,409. As the former Treasurer of the
Province of Ontario for many years, he brought to the office of Grand
Treasurer experience, wisdom and expertise. His quiet smile, his great
sense of humour and his ability to simplify complex problems earned the
respect and gratitude of all his brethren. We are eternally grateful to you.
M.W. Bro. Allan, for your years of dedicated service to the Craft.
Our investment portfolio is divided into three main categories — the
General Fund, the Commutation Fund and the Memorial Fund. As a
result of the action taken by a former Grand Treasurer, the late M.W Bro.
M. Cleeve Hooper, some years ago, our Commutation Fund now exceeds
$300,000 from a zero base. Bro. Hooper segregated the payments into a
capital reserve fund to earn interest in sound investments. He simulta-
neously made substantial annual payments to the Grand Lodge General
Fund from current receipts.
In 1980, the Commutation Fund stood at $170,120, which generated
investment income of $14,844. This year the capital had increased to
$322,112, with receipts totalling $59,787 ($31,612 investment income plus
$28,175 from commutation of fees), less $35,612 transferred into our Gen-
eral Fund in lieu of the per capita assessment which would normally
have accrued to Grand Lodge from those brethren whose dues were com-
muted.
The Memorial Fund has, again, shown a moderate increase from
$840,008 last year, to $922,225 in 1988. Because of the wise investment pol-
icy in the past, the Memorial Fund has grown continuously. I am pleased
to report that as a result of the interest generated, the Benevolent Fund is
now self sufficient.
Donations and bequests to the Memorial Fund this past year totalled
$64,649. The income generated from these Capital Funds will be availa-
56 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
ble for benevolent purposes in perpetuity. Grand Lodge is grateful for
these contributions. We recommend and heartily endorse this type of
consideration by our brethren during their lifetime, or when planning the
distribution of the assets of their estate. This type of giving is a very posi-
tive way of expressing your gratitude to our beloved Fraternity.
In this my initial report as Grand Treasurer, I wish I could report
that we are "in the black" in our General Fund, but this is not the case.
Although our overall position of the three funds is favourable, our Gener-
al Fund has shown a loss of $24,575 this year, compared to a gain of
$55,721 in 1987. This, coupled, with a proposed budget deficit for the com-
ing year, will undoubtedly leave the Chairman of the Audit and Finance
Committee no alternative but to recommend a per capita assessment
increment in the coming year. Enlarged programming and inflationary
pressures make this per capita increase inevitable.
Our investment policy is a commitment to superior long term per-
formance, which will produce better than average fixed income, while
minimizing risk. Equity selection is based upon the successful philoso-
phy of my predecessor, M.W. Bro. Allan. We intend to follow this estab-
lished prudent policy. As a matter of interest, it should be noted that the
average return on investment (at cost) is 10.2%.
On assuming the duties of Grand Treasurer I am mindful of the trust
and confidence you have placed in me. I thank you, my brethren, for this
preferment.
In summation, I would like to assure you that the finances of our
Grand Lodge are in sound condition. A full statement of assets and lia-
bilities, together with receipts and disbursements, is set out in the pages
that follow. By carefully studying these reports you will become familiar
with the financial operation of our Grand Lodge.
Finally, I am indebted to the Grand Secretary and his staff for their
able assistance in facilitating my work. A debt of gratitude is owed to the
Chairman of the Committee on Audit and Finance for his co-operation,
and to our Auditor, Doane Raymond, for their detailed Annual State-
ment, which I recommend for your study.
Respectfully and fraternally submitted.
A. LOU COPELAND,
Grand Treasurer.
On motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by the Grand
Treasurer, the Report was adopted.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
APRIL 30, 1988
Accounting policies
(a) Basis of accounting
The Grand Lodge's policy is to prepare its financial statements on the
basis of cash receipts and disbursements; consequently, certain revenues
and the related assets are recognized when received rather than when
earned, and certain expenses are recognized when paid rather than when
the obligation is Incurred. Accordingly, the accompanying financial
statements are not Intended to present financial position and results of
operations in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
(b) Investments
Investments in bonds are recorded at cost and generally are held to
maturity. Discounts and premiums on acquisition are not amortized, but
are maintained in cost with final gain or loss recorded on disposition.
Discount and premiums on investments
Discounts and premiums are summarized by maturity dates as they segregate
into future April 30 fiscal year ends as follows:

SEMIANNUAL RETURNS
Semiannual returns have been received from 650 constituent lodges
and the information contained therein has been entered in the books of
Grand Lodge. Statistical information may be found in the audited state-
ment presented by the Grand Treasurer and in other tables printed in the
annual Proceedings of Grand Lodge.
SECRETARIES' ASSOCIATIONS
The benefits to be accrued by the formation in the Districts of loosely
knit Secretaries' Associations were alluded to in last year's report.
Your Grand Secretary also mentioned his willingness, upon receipt
of a proper invitation and time and circumstances permitting, to travel to
the District and participate in an Instructional Meeting for Secretaries.
68 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
This year, I am most pleased to report numerous Districts have
responded in the formation of Secretaries' Associations, and your Grand
Secretary was pleased to accept and attend meetings in four of the five
Districts that extended invitations.
Hopefully, other Districts may in turn follow suit and organize.
ASSISTANT TO THE GRAND SECRETARY
The impending retirement of R. W. Bro. J. C. Guy, which was noted
in last year's report, has now become a fait accompli. Since January of
this year Bro. Guy has been enjoying the less strenuous pace afforded by
his retirement.
While the services of this warm, friendly and knowledgeable servant
of our Craft are sorely missed, we are pleased to report the arrival, in Feb-
ruary, of R. W. Bro. Kenneth L. Whiting, his successor.
In addition to assuming the duties of his predecessor, R. W Bro.
Whiting, with his computer and data processing background, will be in
charge of the computerization programme which is about to begin in
your Grand Lodge Office.
Indeed, we welcome Bro. Whiting and wish for him a pleasant and
enjoyable tenure of service in your Grand Lodge Office.
In conclusion, the untiring efforts of our office staff in discharging
their duties with cheerfulness and efficiency must be recognized. Their
chore has not been easy due to change and an increasing work load. Nev-
ertheless, they have accepted the challenge and have continued to apply
their collective talents with great dedication in continued service to the
Craft.
Ere closing, I must single out the Lodge Secretaries whose work is
truly a labour of love. Indeed, their support and assistance, coupled with
the cooperation of all our 93,403 members, has greatly assisted your
Grand Secretary and is deeply appreciated. Thank you, all.
Respectfully and fraternally submitted.
Grand Secretary.
On motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by the Grand
Secretary, the Report was received and adopted by Grand Lodge.

REPORTS OF THE DISTRICT DEPUTY
GRAND MASTERS
The Reports of the 43 District Deputy Grand Masters were presented
by the Grand Secretary, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, sec-
onded by the Grand Secretary, they were referred to the Board of General
Purposes.
COMMITTEE OF SCRUTINEERS
The Grand Master appointed R.W. Bro. J. I. Carrick 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.
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON
GRIEVANCES AND APPEALS
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. R. T. Runciman, Chairman,
and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master seconded by R.W. Bro.
Runciman, it was adopted.
To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the
Grand Lodge A.F. and A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.
Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:
The duties and responsibilities of the Committee on Grievances and Appeals
are set out in S-136(h) of the Book of Constitution and from time to time other
matters are considered by the Committee which relate to its mandate. In this re-
port those matters will be considered in Part I and particular cases will be consid-
ered in Part II.
PARTI
Over the past number of years, successive Chairmen of this Committee have
urged upon the members of the Craft that where a Masonic offense has been
committed it should be prosecuted and not pushed aside in the mistaken belief
that it would disappear.
However, there have been cases in the recent past where it became apparent
that the prosecution of a complaint, a full trial, appeal and review by the
Committee on Grievances and Appeals was not a desirable manner in which to
proceed. Often the criminal offense, upon which the Masonic charge is based,
proceeds slowly through the court system and through appeal hearings and often
several years may have passed before the Masonic trial proceeds. In the mean-
time, depending upon the circumstances, "old wounds may have healed" and per-
70 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
haps where the charge relates to a family matter, the family may have picked up
the broken pieces and become rehabilitated and is functioning normally when
the whole matter may be resurrected again at a Masonic trial.
Your Committee has had reported to it on several occasions situations where
a Brother has asked for his demit when the Masonic charge has been laid. Pursu-
ant to Section 196 of the Constitution a demit cannot be granted. At the same
time, a Brother in a similar circumstance against whom a charge had not been
laid, nor was there any public knowledge within the Craft of the pending charge,
could take a demit.
Your Committee believes that there are many Brethren who are not aware of
Masonic jurisprudence, who believe that once a demit has been granted, that they
are no longer subject to Masonic censure. Such is not the case; until you have
been expelled from membership in the Craft, you are still technically subject to
Masonic charge, trial and censure.
At the Annual Communication last year it was reported that certain Notices
of Motion would be placed before Grand Lodge. The effect of these Notices of
Motion was to grant a Certificate of Severence and certain consequences were to
flow therefrom, in essence, amounting to suspension with certain provisions for
reinstatement. Your Committee, upon reviewing these proposed changes, was of
the opinion that they were confusing and too cumbersome. Your Committee is
now of the opinion that by permitting a demit while a charge is outstanding and
by having the Grand Secretary notified early in the proceedings that the desired
results can be attained and at the same time express true Masonic charity.
Any fear among the Brethren that a demitted Brother may be able to regain
membership in a Lodge unbeknown to the proposed admitting Lodge has been
considered by your Committee. It is your Committee's firm belief that by strict ad-
herence to the Book of Constitution. Section 196 and Section 360 to Section 362
both inclusive, and a careful investigation, this situation can be avoided. Further
safeguards may be able to be built into the system through amendments to the
Book of Constitution when Grand Lodge records become computerized.
To obtain the desired results, it is proposed to amend Section 196 of the Book
of Constitution to permit a demit when a Masonic charge is pending and further
by amending Section 214 so that the Grand Secretary is advised immediately of
the decision of the Reviewing Committee. The latter amendment is also deemed
necessary so that where the matter goes to a Trial Commission the Grand Secre-
tary can give the Lodge timely advice on the conduct of the trial and thereby
avoid pitfalls which may plague those who are not well-acquainted with the trial
procedures.
Another Notice of Motion has been presented to Grand Lodge to change the
name of this Committee from the Committee on Grievances and Appeals to the
Discipline Committee. This is a cosmetic change to more accurately and suc-
cinctly set out the Committee's responsibilities. The governing bodies of the vari-
ous professions in this Province have what they style as a Discipline Committee.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. IWK 71
whose responsibilities relate to the professional conduct of its members. In a sim-
ilar manner your Committee on Grievances and Appeals adjudicates upon the
unmasonic conduct of members of the Craft.
During the past two years your Committee has had to address problems aris-
ing from what can only be described as private piques and quarrels which have
been brought into the lodge room. On all three occasions, after attempts to negoti-
ate a settlement, the only way that the matters could be resolved was for a com-
plaint to be made against the offending Brother and have that complaint re-
viewed by the Reviewing Committee pursuant to S-412 of the Book of Constitu-
tion. In each case it was determined that there were insufficient grounds upon
which to proceed.
The importation of these petty quarrels into the lodge and the subsequent
making of the formal complaint detracts from the gentility of the Craft and one of
its great virtues — Brotherly Love. Your Committee finds these situations discon-
certing in that they disrupt the harmony which is expected to exist in a lodge and
at the same time they underscore the inflexibility of the parties involved and the
end result is that the Brethren involved have not enhanced their relationship with
the Brethren.
PART II
BROTHER A
This Brother was charged with fraud contrary to S-338 of the Criminal Code
and corruptly accepting a reward contrary to S-383 of the Criminal Code. In the
criminal court he pleaded guilty and was found guilty of each offense and was
sentenced to twelve months imprisonment with a recommendation for a tempora-
ry absence pass for employment purposes.
He was subsequently charged with a Masonic Offense pursuant to S-410(m)
of the Book of Constitution. He was found guilty by a Trial Commission which
ordered indefinite suspension. Brother A appealed the Trial Commission deci-
sion and a Board of Appeal was convened. After a full and fair hearing in which
the Brother participated and made submissions the Board of Appeal affirmed the
penalty of indefinite suspension.
This Committee has reviewed the Trial Commission and Board of Appeal
proceedings and has found no error in them. Accordingly justice having been
fairly done the Committee confirms the decision of indefinite suspension.
BROTHER B
Brother B was charged with and pleaded guilty to a charge of sexual assault
and upon being found guilty by the criminal courts he was sentenced to two years
and four months incarceration. He was charged with a Masonic offense pursuant
to S-410(m) of the Book of Constitution. A Trial Commission was convened: the
Brother attended, pleaded guilty and was found guilty of the offense. The Trial
72 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
Commission ordered the penalty of indefinite suspension. There was no automat-
ic right of appeal and the Brother did not file a Notice of Appeal. The Committee
has reviewed the Trial Commission proceedings and justice having been done the
Committee confirms the finding of guilty and the disposition of indefinite sus-
pension.
BROTHER C
This Brother was charged with a Masonic offense pursuant to S-410(n) (adul-
tery) of the Book of Constitution. A Trial Commission was convened and numer-
ous documents were filed as exhibits and the accused Brother gave evidence and
was fully and fairly cross-examined. Both the accused and the complainant were
each well represented by a competent Master Mason as provided by S-419(3) of
the Book of Constitution. The Trial Commission found the Brother guilty as
charged and ordered indefinite suspension.
The Brother filed a Notice of Appeal and pursuant to the Book of Constitu-
tion a Board of Appeal was convened and the accused Brother and the complain-
ant, represented by a competent Master Mason appeared at the hearing. The
Board of Appeal found that the Trial Commission did not err in making a finding
of guilty and accordingly it affirmed that finding.
This Committee has carefully reviewed the proceedings of the Trial Commis-
sion and the Board of Appeal and confirms the finding of guilty. The disposition
of the matter by the Trial Commission and the Board of Appeal was addressed by
the Committee and after serious and careful deliberation it voted unanimously
for indefinite suspension.
CONCLUSION
Your Committee again urges all Brethren who may become involved in trial
proceedings to carefully read and follow the relevant Sections of the Book of Con-
stitution. Often the Grand Secretary and the Committee Chairman must request
additional or more complete documentation and this delays the final disposition
of the matter and causes much inconvenience to all parties concerned. Early
communication with the Grand Secretary will most certainly assist in avoiding
pitfalls and to bring the matter to an expeditious conclusion.
The Committee wishes to express its thanks to the Grand Secretary, M.W.
Bro. R. E. Davies, and his staff for their assistance and also to all of the Brethren
who participated in Trial Commissions and Boards of Appeal for their dedica-
tion to the Craft.
All of which is respectfully and fraternally submitted.
ROBERT T. RUNCIMAN,
Chairman.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. 1988 73
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON
CONSTITUTION AND JURISPRUDENCE
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. N. E. Byrne, Chairman, in
eight parts, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, each part, to-
gether with the report in its entirety was 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 Jurisprudence begs leave to report as
follows:
PARTI
R.W. Bro. Robert T. Runciman gave Notice of Motion as follows:
That the Constitution be amended as follows:
S-136(h), S-412(c), S-421(e), S-423(c), S-423(f). S-424(e), S-424(f), S-424.1(a),
S-424.1(c). S-424.1(d). S-424.1(e), S-424.1(g). S-425(b)(iv), S-425(b)(v), S-425(b)(vi).
S-425(b)(vii) and S-425(b)(viii) each be amended by deleting the words
"Committee on Grievances and Appeals" wherever they appear in the said Sec-
tions and substituting therefor the words "Discipline Committee".
This amendment has the effect of changing the name of the Committee of
Grievances and Appeals to the Discipline Committee. It does not in any way re-
strict or remove any provisions with respect to Masonic trials and/or appeals.
Experience has indicated that the active work of this Committee is really one
of discipline, as it considers and reviews Masonic trials in this Grand Jurisdic-
tion. It does not actually deal with grievances by or between Masons or Masonic
bodies, but functions in a supervisory capacity, reviewing the results of Masonic
discipline at either the Reviewing Committee level, the Lodge or Trial Commis-
sion level, and with any resulting appeals.
Your Committee submits with respect that the intended amendment should
be reworded in plain terms as follows: that wherever the words "Committee on
Grievances and Appeals" appear in Sec. 135(h), Sec. 136(h), and in the relevant
sections of part IV of the Constitution, that they be deleted and that the words
"Discipline Committee" be substituted therefor.
Your Committee notes no constitutional objections to this part of the Notice
of Motion.
74 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
PART II
R.W. Bro. Robert T. Runciman. in addition, gave Notice of Motion that the
Constitution be amended as follows:
S-196 be amended by deleting the word "not" in line three. And be further
amended by deleting the word "or" in line three and substituting therefor the
word "and".
This amendment presupposes a change in basic policy when Masonry deals
with those brethren who have transgressed the high standards Masonry requires
in all its adherents, which policy change is not necessarily consistent with the ex-
isting Rules Respecting Trials for Masonic Offences.
Your Committee notes that while the "legal" input of the Committee on
Grievances and Appeals is greatly appreciated, that such a policy change should
be considered by a larger group of concerned Masons.
Accordingly, your Committee recommends that the proposed amendments
should be presented to and considered by the Board of General Purposes at its
next meeting for its consideration and action.
PART III
R.W. Bro. Robert T Runciman. in addition, gave Notice of Motion that the
Constitution be amended as follows:
S-412(a) be amended by adding after the word "Chairman" in line six the fol-
lowing words "and shall forthwith advise the Grand Secretary in writing".
This amendment would require immediate notification to the Grand Secre-
tary of the decision of any reviewing committee, so that where circumstances were
indicated, the Grand Secretary could give special advice and legal support, avoid-
ing any legal exposure to those not specially trained to deal with legal procedures.
Your Committee notes no constitutional objection to this part of the Notice
of Motion.
PART IV
R.W. Bro. C. Edwin Drew has given Notice of Motion to amend the Constitu-
tion as follows:
Section 372 be deleted and the following substituted in its place:
"372. No lodge shall initiate an applicant earlier than the next meeting of
the lodge (regular or emergent) following his having been balloted for and ac-
cepted."
TORONTO. ONTARIO. 1WK 75
As the Constitution now stands, a candidate can be balloted for and initiated
at the same meeting of a lodge.
Good management of lodge affairs would see a candidate balloted for on one
evening and if the ballot was favourable, initiated at some subsequent meeting of
the lodge. This is the procedure that is usually followed by the constituent lodges
and this amendment would regularize such a procedure.
Subject to a possible amendment allowing a lodge to apply for a special dis-
pensation from the Grand Master to waive this requirement, in special circum-
stances, your Committee notes no constitutional objection to this Notice of
Motion.
PART V
R.W. Bro. W. J. Mathews has given Notice of Motion to amend the Constitu-
tion as follows:
THAT the portion of section Fifty Eight, page twenty five of the book of con-
stitution that presently reads "HE shall vote for seven nominated members of the
board of General Purposes otherwise his ballot for the board shall be void." Be
changed to read. "He shall vote for any number of nominated members for the
board of General Purposes but shall not vote for more than seven members other-
wise his ballot for the board shall be void."
Your Committee notes that such an amendment would drastically change
the voting procedure for members of the Board of General Purposes, which pro-
cedure has been in effect in this Grand Jurisdiction since time immemorial and
has been accepted traditionally by most other Grand Jurisdictions for many,
many years. In addition, it would allow "plumping" for votes, which practice is
not generally accepted by democratic institutions when votes are cast for a fixed
number of elected candidates taken from a larger list of proposed nominees.
Your Committee, after deliberation, is unable to report favourably on the
constitutional validity of this amendment or otherwise consider this amendment
regular.
PART VI
R.W. Bro. William H. Sproule has given Notice of Motion to amend the Con-
stitution as follows:
(A) Sec. 23. Part H. page 18: The word (and) be deleted
(B) The following be added to Part H. page 18:
Following the words (of Motion). Notwithstanding any other provision
in the Constitution. This item shall be dealt with during the first day of
the Annual Meeting.
76 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
So that Sec. 23. Part H. will then read:
(h) Presenting and considering notices of motion. Notwithstanding any
other provision in the Constitution. This item shall be dealt with during
the first day of the Annual Meeting.
The Committee notes that this amendment would require unequivocably
that Notices of Motion be dealt with on the first day of the Annual Communica-
tion of Grand Lodge.
Such inflexibility would, in view of the very tight time restraints imposed on
the Grand Master in the limited time available on the first day of the Annual
Communication, as he opens Grand Lodge, welcomes visiting Masonic and other
dignitaries, proceeds to deal with Minutes, the Grand Master's Address, the many
other important matters already laid out in the Constitution, receives reports from
the Board of General Purposes, as provided for by Sec. 23(f). receives reports of
Special Committees as required by Sec. 23(g), drastically restrict and impair the
general conduct of business and other Masonic matters that must be attended to.
and would undoubtedly result in hurried and disordered presentations, all to be
considered under the guiding hand of our Most Worshipful the Grand Master.
This proposed amendment is, in addition, in direct conflict with Sec. 25 of
the Constitution which already provides that the order of business of the Annual
Communication may be changed or suspended at any time by a two-thirds vote of
Grand Lodge.
Accordingly, your Committee is unable to report favourably on the regularity
or constitutional validity of this amendment.
PART VII
R.W. Bro. Gerald E. MacDonald has given Notice of Motion to amend the
Constitution as follows:
A. By adding thereto, immediately after Section 394. the following head-
ing and section. 'Two Hundred Year Old Lodge".
"394.1 A lodge which has attained its two hundredth year of continuous
and active service and has requested recognition accordingly to the Grand Master
through the office of the Grand Secretary, after having received the written per-
mission of the Grand Master shall be entitled, as a special mark of distinction, to
have the aprons (Master Mason and Installed Master) of its members orna-
mented with a crest affixed to the lambskin portion of the aprons, centered imme-
diately below the flap thereof, which conforms to the following specifications:
(a) The crest shall be 9 cm in diameter with a sky blue embroidery;
(b) The name and number of the lodge shall appear within the outer rim and
the inner rim at the top of the crest and the letters "G.R.C." shall appear
within the outer rim and the inner rim at the bottom of the crest, and
TORONTO. ONTARIO. 1988 77
(c) Two columns stylized to represent the Roman numeral II shall appear in
the centre of the crest. The pillars shall be joined together by a scroll on
which appears the year the lodge was established;
(d) The form of the crest shall be as set forth in the diagram attached, as
schedule Form 10.":
B. Section 389(g) of the Constitution shall be amended so that the same
shall read as follows:
"(g) No emblem or ornamentation, other than as specified in the general
specifications, shall be used on any apron worn in any Craft Lodge, ex-
cept that —
(i) Lodge officers may have the emblem of their office in sky blue, in the
centre of the apron, and
(ii) A crest designating a two hundred year old lodge, as set out in Sec-
tion 394.1."
Your Committee notes that this amendment codifies the results of a
Committee of the Board of General Purposes who. after much deliberation, pres-
ented such matters to a previous meeting of the Board of General Purposes. Ma-
sonry in Ontario is rapidly reaching back 200 years and some special recognition
for lodges who have reached this venerable plateau is deemed desirable.
Your Committee notes no constitutional objection to this part.
PART VIII
WV. Bro. Samuel H. Cohen has given Notice of Motion to amend the Con-
stitution as follows:
Section 185 be amended by deleting the first sentence and substituting "If the
lodge bylaws authorize life membership the lodge may admit its members to life
7S GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
membership on such terms that provide for the purchase of the commutation of
dues at a cost of sufficient proportion to adequately fund the continued service to
the member without encumbering the lodge and/or its dues paying members."
The second sentence would remain as written.
Section 187 be amended by adding the following sentence — "If honorary
membership is given with exemption from lodge dues, it shall be necessary that
an amount of sufficient proportion be set aside by the lodge to adequately fund
continued service to the member without encumbering the lodge and/or its dues
paying members."
Your Committee notes that the Board of General Purposes has considered
the devastating financial circumstances that have already been experienced by
some of our lodges who have not considered and provided for proper funding of
such memberships, leading to serious financial difficulties for that generation of
members of such a lodge not yet born.
Your Committee feels that further study and consideration of this important
matter is required and recommends that the proposed amendments should be
presented to and considered by the Board of General Purposes at its next meeting
for its consideration and action.
Respectfully and fraternally submitted on behalf of the Committee.
NORMAN E. BYRNE.
Chairman.
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON WARRANTS
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. J. Pos, Chairman, and on
motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Pos, it was
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 Committee on Warrants, it is my privilege to present our re-
port to this the 133rd Annual Communication of Grand Lodge.
Your Committee is composed of R.W. Bros. Joel C. Piper, C. John Woodburn
and myself as Chairman.
We are pleased to report that an application for a Warrant has been received
from Chinguacousy Lodge U.D., located in Brampton, Ontario. The lodge has
TORONTO. ONTARIO. 19X8 79
met all of the necessary requirements and your Committee therefore recommends
that Chinguacousy Lodge be granted a Warrant numbered 738 on the Register of
this Grand Lodge and be assigned to Toronto District Number 1.
We heartily congratulate all of the Brethren on the formation of this new
lodge and we wish them continued success in the future.
A Dispensation has been granted to Limestone Daylight Lodge at
Harrowsmith. Ontario. This lodge will meet during the summer months only and
will be hosted by different lodges in Frontenac District, thereby providing visiting
Masons an opportunity to meet in a Canadian Lodge in the highly popular tour-
ist area in that part of the Province.
We extend our sincere thanks and appreciation to the Grand Secretary. M.W.
Bro. Robert E. Davies. and his obliging staff for their assistance during this past
year.
Respectfully and fraternally submitted on behalf of the Committee.
JACOB (JACK) POS.
Chairman.

District Deputy Grand Masters' Reports
The new reporting forms were distributed in January 1988. and we appreciate
that this year's District Deputies had to backtrack to complete the forms, as they
were received midway through their term. We thank them for their understanding
and cooperation. Many favourable comments have been received, together with
some suggestions for refinements; all are sincerely appreciated. Reviewing these
80 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
reports, one cannot help but be inspired by the enthusiasm and dedication of the
brethren in our jurisdiction. We face many challenges now. and in the years
which lie ahead, but our members are addressing the problems and seeking solu-
tions. A universal question which cries out for an answer, is the reason for the
lack of attendance at our meetings, yet within each District some Lodges are
thriving.
Good communication, interesting meetings, family involvement, financial
planning, adequate officer training, full use of the Mentors Programme and a
rededication to the basic principles of our Order, these are the building blocks
used by the Lodges which are continuing to ignite Masonic Pride.
The importance of the Lodge summons has been stressed by our Grand Mas-
ter, and it is heartening to see the improvements which are being made, in this,
our first line of communication to the brethren.
Many Lodges have redesigned and improved the format of the summons,
and are using the approved camera-ready logo.
Some Districts have a regular Newsletter, and report that it is an invaluable
communications tool in District affairs. The efforts in publishing these are usual-
ly expended by one brother, the Editor, and we commend these brethren for their
contribution.
Lodges which have their own newsletter, or information insert, are able to
include information on Grand Lodge, District and Lodge activities, together with
dignified and well written eulogies on deceased brethren, information on new or
senior brethren, future events etc.
Many Lodges have established a successful pattern of involving family mem-
bers in Lodge sponsored activities; Open Houses where family members are spe-
cifically invited. Divine Services with the family members seated with the breth-
ren, sports activities, theatre nights and many other functions where the family
may participate.
Financial planning - more lodges than ever are seeing the need to operate on
a budget, to communicate to the brethren the details of our financial structure
and expenses, as we face the twin pincers of declining membership and increased
expenses.
The pre-installation (or official visit) banquet is once again gaining in popu-
larity, and when properly funded (on a pay as you go basis - so the brethren who
attend are the ones paying the cost) can prove to be an enhancement to the meet-
ing whilst not being a drain on the Lodge budget.
Officer training is the responsibility of the Worshipful Masters - many have
established regular practices and rehearsals. All should - for our officers are our
future leaders, and without adequate preparation and training they will lack the
confidence to lead us in the years which lie ahead.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. I WX XI
Our basic principles — brotherly love, relief and truth — must guide all our
deliberations. Without them, we have nothing.
Our Grand Master requested that this Committee consider some specific
items and present recommendations. These have already been circulated to the
members of the Board, so. with your indulgence. I will summarize them:
ROAD SIGNS: Test sites to be undertaken at specific locations.
STANDARD LOGO: Recommended for all new printing, furnishings.jewellery.
etc.
MEMORIAL SERVICE: Report forwarded to Custodian for consideration.
D.D.G.M. GUIDELINES: Preparation report approved, final report in July 1989.
MENTORS PROGRAMME: New manuals well received, programme is working
well, but will only work if used. Recommend that all
Lodges identify Mentors, with telephone numbers, in the
summons.
GRAND REPRESENTATIVES: Reminder of attendance requirements to two-
year absentees.
MEMBERSHIP RETENTION-INVOICING: Recommended that this system be
adopted by all Lodges, always bearing in mind that noth-
ing replaces PERSONAL CONTACT.
The following are recommended to all Lodges for their individual considera-
tion: FREEMASONRY and YOUTH. CODICILS and BEQUESTS. CORNER-
STONES. VISITATIONS OF WIDOWS. SENIORS and SHUTINS. OPEN
HOUSES. CANDIDATE UNIFORMS. CONTACTING ABSENT BRETHREN.
Finally, may we express our thanks to the members of the Committee for
their attendance at our meetings, but more for their dedication and intense desire
to serve the Craft, and on behalf of the Committee, our gratitude to the members
of Grand Lodge, in particular the Grand Secretary and staff for their assistance
and cooperation.
All of which is respectfully submitted on behalf of this Committee.
C. EDWIN DREW,
Chairman.
S2 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON
MASONIC EDUCATION
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. J. A. Hughes. Chairman,
and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro.
Hughes, it was received.
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:
"EDUCATION IS NOT A COAT YOU PUT ON FOR A
MEETING AND TAKE OFF AT ITS CLOSE — YOU
SHOULD WEAR IT TWENTY-FOUR HOURS A DAY"
What an exciting year your Committee on Masonic Education has had. It
has grown — accomplished — communicated — enthused — and these are but a few
of the adjectives that describe its activities.
One of the most important accomplishments has been the seed that has been
planted in each of our forty-three Districts — the seed that promises to grow and
involve both the District and Lodge Education Committees.
A message that is coming through, loud and clear, is a desire for education.
Our members are crying out for meaningful educational programs to stimulate
their minds and to test their skills. We are being challenged to broaden our hori-
zons and this can only be accomplished by a concerted effort of every District.
We must make better use of District and Lodge Education Chairmen and encour-
age them to stimulate and promote Masonic Education. Lodge and District
Chairmen could serve for a three or four year period, with an assistant to take
over as Chairman. This two-man system would ensure continuity in educational
programs, not only in history and philosophy, but in being better and more know-
ledgeable officers and members who will promote and practice the principles of
Freemasonry.
Skillful use of the many talented and experienced Brethren in every District
must be made so as to produce original and thought-provoking workshops and
seminars that are directed to the diverse needs of each District. This is the respon-
sibility of our District Education Chairmen. They must act as a catalyst to create,
innovate and motivate education at the Lodge level. Be thinkers — be doers —
and dare to be different. It might be contagious.
Brethren, while there have been several undertakings by this Committee, the
two that stand out, and which have the potential to provide long-term benefits to
Masonry, are set out below:
TORONTO. ONTARIO. 1988 83
Correspondence Course
This program, developed in late 1983. continues to be in great demand and
provides a tremendous source for self-improvement and assistance in the further
development of Masonic knowledge among its students. It is satisfying a need.
Because of this need, your Committee has separated the four programs (1.
Masonry at Work. 2. History and Origin of Masonry. 3. Administration and
Organization. 4. Preparing for Leadership), so that you may now choose in which
order you wish to complete them. You may choose to complete only one — or you
may choose to complete two of the four offered — or all four — you may take as
many, or as few. of the programs as you wish and in the order you wish. The
choice is yours.
Upon the completion of each program, a certificate will be awarded, but. to
become a member of THE COLLEGE OF FREEMASONRY, you still must
complete all four programs. The cost for each program is $20.00 and is payable in
advance.
To date, sixty-five (65) College of Freemasonry Certificates have been issued
representing thirty-one (31) Districts. The real excitement though. Brethren, is
that during the months of March. April and May. 1988. we have had over forty
(40) new applications. This rekindling is very encouraging and supports the need
for solid educational programs. Brethren, a real opportunity — don't miss it —
education is the key to our Masonic future.
Your Committee continues to be indebted to R. W. Bros. Frank Bruce and
Edsel Steen for their tireless efforts and skills in administrating this course. Of
course, our thanks is also extended to the thirty-five (35) mentors who evaluate
the assignments and give so freely of their time and talent.
Speakers Program
A program is being developed and will be tested in a number of areas
throughout the Grand Jurisdiction and, like the Correspondence Course, will
require an effort. It is being developed to improve one's ability to stand in front of
a group and in doing so, to feel comfortable. Also, it will assist one to respond
with relative ease, if called upon at the last moment to propose or respond to a
toast.
Toronto District 1 conducted a course, under the direction of W. Bro.
Richard Slee. this spring. It was attended by six enthusiastic members, W. Bros.
Ian MacDonald and Gord Spencer and Bros. Ben Bassett, Maurice Beaubein,
Jack Leitch and Ray Robertson, all of whom will attest to its success.
The course will be part of the Toastmasters International Success Leadership
Series and will involve eight, two-hour sessions which are designed to develop
leadership skills as well as speaking skills. It will teach the importance of speech
communication; preparation of a speech; construction of a speech; impromptu
speaking; use of gestures and much, much more. Brethren, anything worthwhile
S4 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
requires a little effort — this program will be worthwhile and will require but a lit-
tle effort. It is suitable for the new Master Mason as well as the experienced Past
Master. More information will be available in the Fall.
Other areas in which your Committee is making progress is in the develop-
ment of guidelines, which will be printed in pamphlet form when completed.
These include:
• Preparation of a Master's Message
• Developing Newsletters
• Suggested Lodge Committees
• Recording Lodge/District History
• Conducting a Committee of Inquiry
• Conducting a Board of Trial
While the Committee members continue to develop ideas, a special thanks is
extended to W. Bro. Ian Clunie and R. W. Bro. Ed MacLaren for revising Booklet
"O" — For The Information Of The Man Who Has Expressed An Interest In
Masonry.
It should also be noted that Booklets No. 1. No. 2 and No. 3 have been
reviewed with only minor recommendations for change. These will be reprinted
in the future.
The Newsletter continues to generate real excitement in its improved format,
as well as for its value to serve as a communication medium. It provides interest-
ing and educational material quarterly, and our thanks to the many contributors
of material for reprinting. The two ingredients necessary for its continued success
is for you to be a subscriber, as well as for a good source of interesting reading
material. If you have information which you would like to share with your Breth-
ren, please forward it to the editor. R. W. Bro. Robert A. Barnett. P.O. Box 4217.
London. Ontario N5W 5J1.
On behalf of this Committee, we wish to express our sincere thanks to R. W.
Bro. David C. Bradley for the significant contribution he made as its editor dur-
ing the past several years. Also to R. W. Bro. Barnett for accepting this very chal-
lenging position. Subscribers are now in excess of 1.100 and growing. R. W. Bro.
Barnett has. on several occasions, remarked on the cooperation extended by our
printer, V. W. Bro. Ray Powell, and those who prepare The Newsletter for distri-
bution. A sincere thanks to all of you for your innovative ideas and valued assist-
ance.
Workshops/Officers Training Programs
A number of Districts conducted workshops and officers training programs,
many based on the publication Towards The Square. All of the Districts were
involved in the distribution of this booklet and we appreciate your assistance. Its
educational value has been proven and the response of the Brethren has been
overwhelming. In excess of 1.300 have been distributed to thirty-six (36) Districts.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. 1988 85
Reports from various organizers of workshops indicate that, for the most
part, attendance was down with representation being generally Past Masters.
Brethren, this is an area which is proving to be a challenge to District Deputy
Grand Masters and their Education Chairmen since most workshops are organ-
ized at a District level. This low attendance must be addressed. The Brethren who
will benefit, primarily the Officers and new Masons, must be made aware of the
importance of these educational programs. Advanced planning to meet the needs
of the District with a sound marketing approach will bear fruit — but. again, long
term planning with continuity of programs is essential.
Despite poor attendance, a number of good Workshops were presented but
because of space restrictions, mention will be made of only a few. Remember.
Brethren, keep up the good work — your efforts will be rewarded, and they are
appreciated by your Grand Lodge.
• St. Thomas District — Officers Improvement
• Toronto District 6 — Officers Training - a play presentation
• Victoria District — General Education on Degrees and Signs
• Toronto District 2 — Officers Training
• Sarnia District — Lodge of Instruction
• Peterborough District — Lodge of Instruction
• Wellington and Waterloo Districts — Theme Topics
• London West District — Slide Presentations
• Hamilton A. B and C Districts — Officers Training
These are the types of programs your Committee on Masonic Education is
encouraging be conducted by ALL DISTRICTS. A tremendous way to use the
resources available within the District — knowledgeable Past Masters — skilled
Past District Deputy Grand Masters. Involved Masons are active Masons — keep
these Brethren working on behalf of Masonry.
District Newsletters
Newsletters are produced in a number of Districts and. again, to mention a
few —
• Wellington District REVIEWS — Outlines lodge functions. District
interests, historical sketches, pictures
• Toronto District 4 The Builders — Poetry. Masonic history, social
events
• Sarnia — Lodge functions, anniversaries. District news, pictures
• South Huron — Message from the District Deputy, pictures, lodge
events
Communication is a vital key to better education — these publications are
extremely interesting and informative and make enjoyable reading. Congratula-
tions.
86 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
Reflections
A Lodge or District Discussion Group. This could be led hy the District Edu-
cation Chairman. Get together and discuss problems which arise in the Lodges —
a sharing of similar problems — information — ideas and resolving them.
A Book Review Club — To discuss Masonic books or even non-Masonic
books, by a group of Masons meeting to broaden their knowledge.
A Two or Three Minute Club — Presentation of topics which are judged for
their content and manner of presentation. A great warm-up for the Speakers
Course.
Find out the profession or occupation, or perhaps the hobby of the Brethren
and ask them to make a presentation on that subject in Lodge.
Brethren, the possibilities are endless. Think about it. If you have ideas or
thoughts you want to share, write this Committee. We want to hear from you. We
want to have your ideas.
Summary
The undersigned, as Chairman, expresses his thanks to the members of the
Committee for their cooperation and assistance throughout the year. It was a
pleasure working with you. The members are: R. W. Bros. R. A. Barnett. F. J.
Bruce. N. E. Byrne. R. C. Casselman. C. E. Drew. W. E. Elgie. W. C. Frank. J. R.
Gilpin. J. S. Hudson. F. J. Satterley, E. C. Steen and V. W. Bro. E. R. Morrison.
Education does not just happen, it requires effort. Appreciation is expressed
to all of you who are actively involved with education. To the silent, unobtrusive
Brother who works in his Lodge, in his District, behind the scenes: those who qui-
etly go about their Masonry — encouraging the new Mason — attending every
meeting — prepared to step in at the last moment — often taken for granted — a
sincere thank you.
Your Committee is striving to promote Masonic Education from within each
District so that the District Chairman is involved with all of the individual Lodge
Education Chairmen and other talented, interested and knowledgeable Brethren.
What a team this will make for a District — an unbeatable combination. This
group working as a team to meet the needs of their District — a strong force for
the good of Masonry.
The future of Freemasonry rests on Masonic Education. Education is the key
because an educated Mason is an interested Mason; an interested Mason is an
active Mason; and an active Mason generates new Masons.
Respectfully and fraternally submitted on behalf of the Committee.

REPORT OF THE POLICY COMMITTEE ON
THE BULLETIN
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. C. J. Woodburn, Chairman,
and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro.
Woodburn. it was received.
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 pleasure to again report to you as chairman of the Advisory Commit-
tee on our Grand Lodge Bulletin. In last year's report we commented that it was
timely to explore sprucing up and expanding our Bulletin. To this end we soli-
cited input from Board Members and. specifically, from our committee members.
R. W. Bros. Jim Jackson and Reg Jewell and V. W. Bro. Norm Buckingham. Our
thanks to all who supplied comments and advice.
Subsequently we recommended to the January Board of General Purposes
meeting the following:
(a) A new masthead be adopted.
(b) The Bulletin be doubled in its number of pages.
(c) Pictures be used at the discretion of the editor. This would
require professional picture quality.
This report was accepted! Hence our spring Bulletin incorporated these rec-
ommendations and appears to have been enjoyably received by our Brethren.
We recommend the following for the year ahead:
1. The new format as used in the spring Bulletin be continued.
2. All Bulletin copy and layout, except the Grand Master's mes-
sage, be submitted to our editor in advance for his journalis-
tic review and. if necessary, rewrite. This will ensure a contin-
uation of our high professional standards.
Finally, on behalf of all may I express our appreciation to R. W. Bro. Wilson
McConnell. our editor, for his tireless work on our behalf. It is our joy to see that
he continues to find pleasure in his labours.
Sincerely and fraternally.
C. JOHN WOODBURN.

REPORT OF THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. E. C. Steen. Chairman, and
on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Steen, it
was received.
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:
A meeting of the Committee was held on Friday afternoon, January 8. 1988.
in the Board Room of the Grand Lodge Office in Hamilton. The following topics
presented by M.W. Bro. W. R. Pellow. Grand Master, and submitted for discus-
sion as to merit and possible method of introduction, were addressed by the Com-
mittee.
D.D.G.M. Reports
A. Midterm Report
The Committee felt that this had much merit and should be used at the direc-
tion of the incumbent Grand Master, who would then have the flexibility to
seek reports on particular areas of concern to him.
B. June 1 Deadline for Final Report
The Committee felt that a constitutional amendment should be made to
change the date to May 15.
C. Number of Reports Required
The Committee suggested four copies. Two of these would be sent to Grand
Lodge and two remain in the District (One for the District Deputy Grand
Master and the other to his successor). The Committee suggested a constitu-
tional amendment was in order and it should be very definitive regarding the
necessity of a report being given to the District Deputy Grand Master's suc-
cessor in office.
D. Guidelines for Retention of Reports in District
The Committee suggested that the reports be kept in each District for a mini-
mum of five years. It was suggested this be incorporated in any amendment
to Section 104.
D.D.G.M. Qualifications
After much discussion it was generally agreed some Districts now have
mechanisms in place that are working well which could be built upon.
40 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMl INK ATION
Life Membership
Should it be Made Mandatory to Make Proper Funding of Life Memberships a
Constitutional Requirement - i.e. Transfer of Funds From General Fund to a
Life Membership Capital Fund?
The Committee felt it could be addressed by the Grand Master in his address
to Grand Lodge in a very firm manner. This would then be followed up in
each District by the D.D.G.M.s under the direction of the Grand Master.
Lodge Building Corporation
A. Lodge must not use the word temple, hall or lodge on an application for a
nonprofit, nonshare capital charter. It was explained this applies to new
applications only.
B. Should a Time Limit be Given for Establishment of Incorporation for All Our
Lodge Buildings?
Committee suggested a time limit should not be established now but contin-
ued encouragement should be forthcoming until such time as further clarifi-
cation is received from the Minister of Consumer and Commercial Relations
- Companies Branch.
Signage
A. Should any Lodge Erect Signage for a Lodge Building Unless it is a Standard
Approved by Grand Lodge?
The Committee felt this could best be handled by the Advisory Committee
on Lodge Buildings in their report to Grand Lodge. In addition, it should
suggest that all further signage be approved by Grand Lodge.
B. Should a Deadline be Set for Proper Identification of all Lodges?
The Committee suggested that it be a recommendation only. They also felt
this should be handled by the Advisory Committee on Lodge Buildings.
Solicitation
Statement as Prepared by V.W. Bro. W. N. Buckingham
The Advisory Committee recommended that the statement be printed in
pamphlet form similar to "What is Freemasonry?" and "Charity" and distrib-
uted forthwith to each Lodge. The Grand Secretary was asked to print
150,000 copies and distribute together with a covering letter similar to that
done on the above-noted pamphlets.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. I9SX 91
Camera Ready Art
Should the Use of the Standard Square and Compasses be Made Mandatory by
a Certain Date?
The Committee felt that proper use be continually urged through the
D.D.G.M.s. Compliments on the use could be incorporated in the Grand
Master's Address.
Grand Master's Award
Rules and regulations and constitutional changes are required. A discussion
suggested that much more study is required and a Committee Report should
be presented to the Board of General Purposes for presentation to Grand
Lodge.
Temple
Possible Deletion of the Word "TEMPLE" in the Book of Constitution
Committee suggested no constitutional amendment should be introduced,
but rather the matter could best be pursued in a quiet diplomatic way.
Elags in Lodge Room
A consensus suggested that the Grand Master could address the
enhancement derived by the proper use of the flags in the lodge decor
through the medium of his Address to Grand Lodge.
Section 137 (a) (i)
(This section deals with calling a quick meeting of the Board of General Pur-
poses immediately after Grand Lodge is closed.)
Compliance or change?
The Committee felt this section could be complied with by orchestrating a
short Board Meeting during a brief recess called just prior to the close of
Grand Lodge. Consensus suggested this be tried for a couple of years and if
effective then a constitutional change could be entertained.
Grand Master's Programmes
Possible Retention of Best Ideas for Use by His Successor?
The Committee suggested that good programmes initiated will gain momen-
tum and automatically carry on.

This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. R. C. Casselman, Chairman,
and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro.
Casselman, it was received.
To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand

Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:
I am pleased to present this report on behalf of the members of this Commit-
tee; R. W. Bros. R. A. Barnett, L. G. Byers, F. G. Dunn, W. J. Finlay, L. W. Law-
rence; VW. Bro. D.W. Clarke; W. Bro. P. C. Flowers and Bro. H. A. Pellow.

TORONTO. ONTARIO. 19K8 93
A letter was sent to all D.D.G.M.s outlining recommended steps required to
bring the external appearance of our Buildings in harmony with the Community.
There are Lodge Buildings located on the main street of our towns and villages
throughout Ontario that have their windows covered over, giving them a mysteri-
ous and foreboding appearance. This image of Masonry is presented to our non-
Masonic friends in the Community. With your help Brethren, we can change this
image! In the Districts where such conditions exist I would ask those D.D.G.M.s
to make a personal commitment to meet with the W.M.s and the Building Com-
mittees to effect the necessary changes.
We acknowledge and congratulate those Lodges and Building Corporations
that are making plans to improve their Masonic homes either by building new
facilities or by renovating existing ones. During the past year. Hammond Lodge
No. 327 was completed. This is a beautiful building, which serves to meet the
needs of the Brethren in Wardsville and enhances the image of Freemasonry in
the Community. The Brethren of Hammond Lodge No. 327 and the members of
their Building Committee are to be congratulated for their dedication and enthu-
siasm by providing an excellent Masonic home for the Brethren of Wardsville
and the surrounding area.
This Committee acknowledges and congratulates the Lodges in Brockville
and Barrie on the completion of their new facilities and also for the Ceremony of
Laying of the Cornerstone. This Committee encourages the use of this beautiful
Ceremony for all new Buildings and is appropriate to use after the completion of
the Building.
The signage programme has been well received throughout the Jurisdiction
with approximately forty applications to date. There is a potential of approxi-
mately 380 signs that will identify our meeting places in the Community. This
Committee in cooperation with the Manufacturing Company. Slimlite Limited of
Scarborough, has provided an excellent sign which meets the needs of all Lodge
Buildings. Grand Lodge has made the signage programme very attractive by
granting a $200.00 rebate for an approved Lodge Sign. Only the approved Lodge
building sign can be erected and no rebate will be forthcoming for any sign that is
not ordered and processed through our Grand Lodge and this Committee. The
$200.00 rebate will be in force during the next year and hopefully until all of the
approximately 380 buildings are identified with our standard sign.
In summation. I would like to express the gratitude and appreciation of this
Committee to all the D.D.G.M.s for promoting and implementing the programs
of this Committee. We trust that we have met your needs and concerns during the
past year. We would emphasize that your Committee would be pleased to receive
your inquiries regarding your future building proposals. Our objective is to assist
the Lodges and Building Corporations in any way possible to meet those building
proposals.
Respectfully and fraternally submitted on behalf of the Committee.

44 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON
FRATERNAL RELATIONS
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. A. G. Broomhead.
Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by
R.W. Bro. Broomhead, it was 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 established standards for recognition that must be met to receive a
favourable recommendation by the Commission on Information for Recognition
of the Conference of Grand Masters of Masons in North America for recognition
are:
1. Legitimacy of origin
2. Exclusive territorial jurisdiction
3. Adherence to the Ancient Landmarks, specifically an unalterable and
continuing belief in a Supreme Being, the Volume of the Sacred Law as an
indispensable part of the furniture of the lodge, and the prohibition of the
discussion of religion and politics.
Mexico
During 1987, several State Grand Lodges in Mexico have sought recognition.
There are 24 State Grand Lodges in Mexico, all of which are considered regular.
Brazil
The newest Grand Lodge is The Masonic Grand Lodge of the State of
Rondonia, considered regular.
Central America
The state of Freemasonry in the Central American countries of Guatemala.
Honduras, El Salvador, Costa Rica and Panama is, at best, precarious.
In Nicaragua, Masonry is practically nonexistent now.
Italy
The Grand Orient of Italy presented a delegation to the Commission, again,
this year, in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, to reaffirm that they were conforming to the
standards of regularity. This Grand Lodge has no reason to believe the Grand
Orient of Italy is not following the basic principles and we continue to recognize
this Grand Lodge as regular.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. 19X8 95
The Commission consists of six members of wide geographical distribution.
The Commission neither advises nor recommends that recognition be given to
any Grand Lodge, but merely indicates whether or not it considers that a Grand
Lodge in question satisfies the conditions of regularity. The members of the Com-
mission are composed of five Americans and one Canadian. The American dele-
gates are from Utah. Virginia. Illinois. District of Columbia. Arizona and the per-
manent Secretary-Treasurer. M.W. Bro. Robert Dillard (Texas). M.W. Bro. Wil-
liam R. Pellow (Ontario) retires in 1993: in that year he will be President of the
Commission.
Respectfully submitted.

REPORT OF THE BLOOD DONORS' COMMITTEE
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. W. C. Frank, Chairman, and
on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Frank, it
was received.
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 and honour to present the report of this committee, which is
comprised of the following members: R.W. Bros. J. W Auckland, A. G.
Broomhead, D. I. Greenwood, and J. D. Jackson.
First of all, I want to pay tribute to last year's Chairman, R. W. Bro. Edsel
Steen, who called a meeting of dedicated promoters of this very worthy endeavour
shortly after Grand Lodge last year.
This gave me the opportunity to reap the benefit of much effort on the part of
R. W. Bro. Steen and other district representatives, to get a head start on my year
as Chairman. As a result of having many worthwhile suggestions to form a basis,
two sets of guidelines were formulated. One for the benefit of the District Blood
Chairman, the other for the Lodge Blood Chairman.
% GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
Before these could be distributed, it was necessary to have the names of the
Blood Donor Chairmen in every district.
I want to take this opportunity to thank the D.D.G.M.s who returned their
Trestle Boards, designating the district Blood Donor Chairman. However, as
prompt as many were, this did delay the opportunity to contact the District Chair-
man until the Masonic Blood Donor year was practically half over.
To try and avoid similar repetition next year, this report includes some of the
basic guidelines each lodge Chairman could use to help overcome the results this
report will indicate. Hopefully, the new D.D.G.M.s will then be able to encourage
the district Chairman for his year, which, if possible, for the sake of continuity,
will be the same brother to start organizing and promoting the blood donor cam-
paign for 1988-89.
All previous reports listed the results of the donors from each of the forty-
three districts. This one will not. mainly because at time of printing less than fifty
percent had been received.
Your committee regrets having to indicate such a fact; however, we do not
feel the lack of the district reports at the time of publishing means the program is
not working. Although the average results indicated in this year's report are some-
what less than last year's, there are very positive reasons to believe the Masonic
Blood Donor program is still a great Masonic Window for the general public to
view.
Your chairman is very fortunate to have a close liaison with the London Red
Cross Society, being a long time donor presently listed at eighty-six.
Believe me brethren, the management under the very capable direction of
Donna Dean, appreciates and depends on the support of the Masons of the two
London Districts. The following received from her this past March is just one
paragraph to prove the point. "The Southwestern Ontario Blood Donor
Recruitment Department of The Canadian Red Cross Society would like to thank
the Masons for their donor support of our Blood Program. Masonic participation
of the program seems to work most effectively where there is a strong Blood
Chairman. Since it is common for this person to keep office for often only one
year at a time. I would like to offer my assistance to meet with incoming chairmen
and brief them on our program."
Please make note of her recognition of the fact Lodge Blood Chairmen often
keep office for only one year. This seems to be one of the obvious weak spots in
the system, which perhaps the new D.D.G.M.s can try to avoid, at least at the dis-
trict level.
The committee wishes to sincerely thank all brethren who have devoted so
much effort in keeping this program successful; the district chairman, the lodge
chairman and certainly the individual donors.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. IWS 47
Listed below are only some of the achievements worthy of special mention:
Co-Chairmen of Frontenac District. Bros. Elmer Hurlbut and Carl
McCharles did an admirable job. even though the total was down from last year.
The same can be said for Bro. Dimitrios Papavramidis. chairman District 1.
for Toronto showing Temple No. 525 with an increase of 100% and Unity No. 701
with 99%; district total up 15%.
Windsor District under Chairman Bro. J. Ralph Totten: although down
slightly agrees he is optimistic for next year.
Bro. Robert J. Dell. Niagara District A. reported Bro. William Gibson St.
Andrews No. 661 - gave his 100th donation and Ivy No. 1 15 took the trophy from
Amity Lodge No. 32. who held it for thirteen years.
Bro. J. A. Hornell of Chatham District, reported a 46% increase, showing
Florence No. 390 having the highest percentage increase and Baldoon No. 694
showing the most improvement.
Bro. John H. Wilson of Toronto District No. 7 displayed fantastic initiative
and would get the prize for the best reporting to your chairman throughout the
year. Thank you.
Honourable mention to Bro. Robert E. Denison. Toronto No. 5. showing a
healthy increase of 30%.
London's Bros. Ron Saunders and Russ Barber came through again with an
increase which reflects the previous comments relative to the importance of a
strong liaison with the local Red Cross Society and the individual help of Bro.
Dave Draper of St. Johns 209A who campaigns not only within his lodge, but as a
telephone volunteer at the London Clinic. As his lodge chairman. St. Johns 209A
contributed 414 pints from a membership of 421. A fantastic record.
Brethren, all active district chairmen are at least asking themselves, why are
donations down or so difficult to maintain. Your committee feels there are vari-
ous reasons. The stepped up Aids exposure program, although no risk to the
donor, has many misconceptions and so to offset this the original district mailing
included an information pamphlet. There is no doubt the Aids scare may have
negatively influenced more regular donors than we can imagine.
The older membership, no doubt, has some effect; your chairman - as an
example - only having one year left to give.
My brethren, your committee respectfully solicits the help of the new
D.D.G.M.s to implement, as soon as possible, any or all the following guidelines.
This will facilitate a much faster start for the new blood donor Masonic year in
each district and. hopefully, will allow next year's report to include all of the forty-
three districts.
W ORAM) LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
SUGGESTED GUIDELINES FOR LODGE BLOOD DONOR CHAIRMAN
1. Each lodge should have a (hard cover book) lodge register to contain each
donor's name, telephone number and record of donations.
2. Every time a new member is received into the lodge by initiation or affilia-
tion, he should be approached by the chairman to determine if he will be a blood
donor. If he agrees, his name should be inserted into the register and. if possible,
he should be given some Red Cross literature.
3. The lodge chairman must note the scheduled dates of the Red Cross clinics
and arrange to have them included in the lodge Bulletin or Notice.
4. Approximately one week before the clinic, the chairman or a member of
his committee should telephone each donor and remind him of the date and time
of the clinic.
5. Each lodge could conduct their own system of rewards or recognition over
and above the district competition.
6. The Blood Donor chairman would have more prestige if he was also a
donor. This means it would be better than having the chairman be automatically
a line officer and changing each year. Continuity is very important since the
blood donor year includes the summer months, which makes the year almost half
over when the lodge resumes in the fall.
7. Lodge chairmen could work co-operatively with other organizations with-
in their local communities for more clinic exposure.
8. Thank donor members by all or some of the following suggestions:
a) Send him a postcard
b) Thank him personally
c) Give awards, it could be a very inexpensive design
d) Report to lodge the recent donors, particularly on special nights.
Mainly, make him feel important. Everyone likes to hear their name rec-
ognized.
Respectfully and fraternally submitted.

REPORT OF THE REGALIA COMMITTEE
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. G. E. MaeDonald. Chair-
man, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro.
MaeDonald. it was received.
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 the report of this Committee which will address
three aspects relating to regalia.
RECOGNITION OF TWO HUNDRED YEAR OLD LODGES
At the Annual Communication in 1986. the Long Range Planning Commit-
tee recommended the adoption of a specially designed distinctive crest to identify
members of lodges which will attain the 200th anniversary of their founding.
A brief description of the crest is as follows:
The crest is approximately nine centimeters in diameter with
blue embroidery and is to be affixed to the middle of the apron
at a point just below the flap. Around the outer rim at the top
appear the name and number of the lodge, and the letters
G.R.C. appear at the bottom of the circle. In the centre of the
crest are two columns from the porchway or entrance to King
Solomon's Temple, stylized to suggest the Roman Numeral II.
designating two hundred years. On a scroll joining these pil-
lars, which denote stability, appears the year the lodge was
established. This tends to give distinction and credibility to a
lodge through the years so that a lodge two hundred and fifty
years old is easily recognized from a lodge that has just turned
two hundred years.
It is recommended that the constitution be amended to entitle a lodge, which
has attained its two hundredth year of continuous and active service, to ornament
the regalia of its members with such distinctive crest. Notice of motion has been
given to this effect.
DRESS AND UNDRESS REGALIA
In its report to the Annual Communication in 1986, the Long Range
Planning Committee questioned the continued availability of full dress regalia
and recommended three options for consideration by the Regalia Committee.
During the year, additional information was received which warranted a
reassessment of the options.
KM) GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
The use of Lurex synthetic thread does not appear to be a favourable option
since savings in materials are lost in extra labour required by the thinner thread.
Also, artisans capable of doing the intricate stitchery in gold thread are becoming
available to the industry in Canada. Furthermore, there is the distinct impression
that the current design is favoured by many brethren in this jurisdiction.
It is recommended that the current design of Grand Lodge Regalia remain
unchanged.
RECYCLING OF USED GRAND LODGE REGALIA
It has been confirmed that the recycling of used regalia is common practice
in many lodges and that procedures are in place in some districts to ensure that
used regalia is maintained in a suitable manner and used as required. Most dis-
tricts purchase D.D.G.M. regalia and. therefore, such regalia should remain in
the districts.
It is understood that the repair or refurbishing of regalia is only cost effective
if the repair or refurbishing can be completed at 50 per cent or less of the original
cost.
It is recommended that:
(a) all districts establish procedures to refurbish, maintain and reuse good
used regalia.
(b) all Past Grand Lodge officers (District Deputy Grand Masters and
appointed officers) include a codicil in their Wills to direct their regalia back to
the lodge or district.
(c) consideration be given to maintaining specific used regalia (eg. Grand
Senior Warden. Grand Junior Warden. Grand Chaplain. Grand Registrar) at a
centralized collection centre such as the Grand Lodge Building, Hamilton. This
type of used regalia may be individually owned. Therefore, it will be necessary to
establish guidelines relating to inventory, collection and compensation.
Respectfully and fraternally submitted.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON
PRINTING AND PUBLICATIONS
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. F. J. Satterley. Chairman.
and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro.
Satterley, it was received.
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 Committee on Printing and Publications. I am pleased to
submit this report to the 133rd Communication of Grand Lodge.
Members of the Committee are R. W. Bro. Earl Rawson. and the undersigned
as chairman.
Printing costs for the year are:
Proceedings $27,208.47
Printing $ 8.445.47
Final audit figures for the year ending April 30. 1988, appear in the Grand
Treasurer's Report.
A comparison of the total printing costs for the period of 1986/87 versus
1987/88 is of no consequence as these figures include the non-recurring costs of
the District Deputy Grand Masters' reporting manuals.
102 (.RANI) LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
It is observed that printing costs have increased and this reflects the infla-
tionary pressure of our economy. The cost of postage has increased dramatically.
While a number of publications were sold through the Grand Lodge Offices
direct from orders sent in by the Brethren, your Committee, this year, undertook
to promote the sale of:
1. "Meeting the Challenge"
2. "Beyond the Pillars"
3. "Glossary of the Work"
4. "Guidelines for the Lodge Officers"
We felt that this set of books, if used by the junior officers, would give them
the background knowledge for a successful year for themselves, and their Lodge.
We recorded, with appreciation, the sale of some 1.000 of these fine Masonic
publications. The success of this programme was due to the conscientious efforts
of our DISTRICT DEPUTY GRAND MASTERS.
We urge that the new DISTRICT DEPUTY GRAND MASTERS CONTIN-
UE TO PROMOTE the sale of these excellent books.
The Committee wishes to express its thanks to the DISTRICT DEPUTY
GRAND MASTERS and to their District Chairmen for their efforts and coopera-
tion in the past year.
A special thanks to the staff of the GRAND LODGE OFFICE, and to the
GRAND SECRETARY for the help they gave to the Committee.
All of which is respectfully submitted.
FRED SATTERLEY.
Chairman.
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON
BENEVOLENCE
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. T. R. Davies. Chairman, and
on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Davies. it
was 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 again this year to submit the report of the Committee on
Benevolence to Grand Lodge. I have been pleased to act as Chairman of this
Committee for the past seven years and have tried to be helpful to whatever
TORONTO. ONTARIO. IWX 103
degree possible in all calls for assistance from Lodges across the Province during
that time. I have also been supported by a strong Committee for those years.
Masons who care a great deal about the work of benevolence and its function
within the Masonic family. I feel, however, that it is time for a change. I had never
planned to make a career of this job and have suggested to the Grand Master that
it might now be timely for a new Chairman to be appointed following this year's
deliberations. Accordingly. I anticipate that this might be my swan song as Chair-
man of Benevolence.
The work of our Benevolence Committee is important. It is but a small part
of the magnitude of overall Masonic charity. The total benevolent grants in our
jurisdiction for many years have ranged in amounts of $60,000.00 to $90,000.00.
Put this in context with the aggregate of Masonic charities across North America
which might be in the nature of three hundred and fifty million dollars. I have
arrived at this estimate from a paper prepared by the Supreme Council 33° A. &
A.S.R.. Northern Masonic Jurisdiction. U.S.A.. and have no doubt that whatever
the amount, the magnitude of overall Masonic charitable support is enormous,
both in dollar terms plus, of course, the tremendous number of community
involvement services provided by the Masonic fraternity to which no dollar value
can be enumerated. In other words, our financial support, while very important to
the individual cases we support, is really a drop in the bucket in comparison to
the enormous scope of the aggregate of Masonic charities.
It has been a long tradition and well known that a Mason will find assistance
forthcoming from his Brethren should it ever be needed, notwithstanding the fact
that Masonry has never pretended to be an insurance or protective society. Assist-
ance may take the form of financial aid. usually extended through customary
Lodge channels and also may consist of a visitation when ill. advice on personal
problems, sympathy during bereavement, help in procuring employment, and so
on. The opportunities are endless.
Characteristic of Masonic benevolence is the silence in which it works. No
publicity is given to the acts of relief afforded its members by a Master Mason's
Lodge. It is a private matter between the Lodge and the distressed Brother and his
family. His problems are not broadcast to the outside world and the Lodge nei-
ther asks nor expects acclaim for its actions.
I will deal now specifically with the work of our Committee during the past
year. Our most important news of the past year has been the arrival of R. W. Bro.
Kenneth L. Whiting as our new Supervisor of Benevolence. Ken succeeded R. W.
Bro. James Guy who had served Grand Lodge in that office and in other capaci-
ties for many years past and took a well earned retirement late in 1987. We were
very fortunate indeed to find that R. W. Bro. Whiting was interested in a second
career following his retirement from a forty year relationship with CN Telecom-
munications. He has brought an expertise of communications background that
will be invaluable and in his capacity as Supervisor of Benevolence he plays a
vital role.
Ii>4 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
During the past year your Committee adjudicated on more than sixty appli-
cations and disbursed a total sum of $85,000.00 in aggregate to those applicants
affected. This compares very favourably with the number and aggregate amount
of benevolence disbursed last year and, indeed, has been the pattern of recent
years. The largest individual disbursement made has been $3,500.00. Many have
been made of relatively modest amounts. We anticipate 1988/1989 revenues from
the Memorial Fund will be in excess of $90,000.00 and we will continue to exhort
all Lodges across the jurisdiction to take ongoing care that there will not ever be a
case in their midst which is not brought to our notice so that benevolence can be
dispensed wherever it might be appropriate.
Certainly it is well known that there are a seemingly endless number of social
agencies providing support to the disadvantaged and in fact it has been said from
time to time that the need for Masonic benevolence is diminishing as a result of
the network of social support services. Notwithstanding, it cannot be denied that
supplementary support, whether it be financial or just supportive in general can
add a little light and encouragement to any situation of difficulty whether it be
related to health, family and so on. I can think of many cases we have dealt with
over the years where a very modest supplement of financial care has brought
cheer and a sense of identification of the individual's situation. It is urgently nec-
essary that we continue to remind all Lodges of the importance of maintaining
communication with our elderly Brethren, the widows of deceased Brethren and
with the family of any Brother where we have had an awareness of difficulty in
the past. Benevolence and caring involvement is one of the fundamental precepts
of our fraternity.
We recommend that we continue membership in the Masonic Relief Associ-
ation of the United States and Canada, and that we continue to develop the rela-
tionship between our Committee and the Masonic Foundation. The relationship
between our Committee and the Foundation has come a long way in recent years
and the opportunity for the Chairman of this Committee to dialogue with the
Board of the Foundation by being a member ex officio has been invaluable. We
have already acknowledged the arrival of R. W Bro. Kenneth Whiting as the new
Supervisor of Benevolence and have been highly impressed at the manner in
which he has approached his responsibilities to Grand Lodge. We cannot say
enough for the inspired leadership and involvement that is forthcoming from our
Grand Secretary. M. W. Bro. Robert E. Davies. We again acknowledge the sup-
port of all on our Committee and send a special word of appreciation to the many
District Chairmen who have helped look after the process of benevolence over
the years. In closing, we also wish to acknowledge the enthusiastic effort of the
Grand Master for the interest and support that he has provided to all the Com-
mittees of Grand Lodge, including the Committee on Benevolence.
Respectfully submitted.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON
AUDIT AND FINANCE
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. T. R. Da vies. Acting
Chairman, on behalf of the former Chairman, R.W. Bro. J. W. Millar, in
two parts — A and B — and on motions of the Deputy Grand Master, se-
conded by R.W. Bro. T. R. Davies. each part together with the Report in
its entirety was 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:
Firstly. I wish to record my pleasure in presenting this report on behalf of our
recently retired but long-standing Chairman of this Committee, R.W. Bro. John
W. Millar. R.W. Bro. Millar has been the Chairman of this Committee for more
than twelve years and has served the office with considerable distinction. It has
been a pleasure to work under his guidance and in particular, to have had him
assist with the preparation and development of the Committee report to follow.
The Committee of Audit and Finance of Grand Lodge has reviewed and con-
sidered 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 reports appear to fully and accurately record the essential
details pertaining to:
(a) The financial position of this Grand Lodge as of April 30, 1988, 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 Commutation Fund and the Memorial Fund; together with particulars
of all transactions and changes in Capital Accounts of Grand Lodge, which
have occurred during the said period, namely the twelve months ending at
April 30, 1988.
(c) The Investment Accounts of the above mentioned Funds and the summary
of all financial resources as of April 30. 1988.
The following observations respecting certain matters covered by these
reports, and/or relative to its financial affairs are presented for your considera-
tion.
( 1 ) The Audited Statements of Grand Lodge accounts show that the net balance
of all its resources now amount to $2,816,409. This net balance includes total
investments at a cost value (not market value) plus cash on hand and in the
bank and represents an increase in assets of $107,084 over the same figures of
a year ago.

(2) Total receipts under the General Fund for fees. dues, commutations, interest
on investments, etc. amounted to $456,414 while disbursements etc.
amounted to $480,989. leaving an excess of expenditures over income of
$24,575. In other words, a deficit in the past year end review of $24,575.
(3) Grants for benevolent purposes amounted to $78,329. a decrease of $5,195
from a year ago. These grants were paid out of the income of the Memorial
Fund.
We consider it appropriate again this year to commend the Committee on
Benevolence for the care and responsibility shown in administering the funds
under its jurisdiction.
In review of all matters covered in this report, the Committee of Audit and
Finance has received the fullest cooperation and assistance from the Grand Sec-
retary and his staff. The cooperation and involvement in preparing this report by
the Grand Treasurer is also much appreciated.
The report of this Committee with regard to budgetary requirements and
plans during the year ahead requires your careful attention. The report is being
presented in two sections this year. Firstly. Schedule A to outline those costs
which we estimate will be incurred in the ordinary course of operating the busi-
ness of our Grand Lodge. Secondly. Schedule B will contain certain extraordi-
nary items of expenditure which the Grand Master proposes be allocated - in
addition to the general expenses - during the fiscal year ahead. We must draw to
your attention that our estimate of the source of funds during the year ahead is
relatively constant to those of the past year and that without allowance for the
extraordinary items we are already budgeting for a deficit of $92,725. We also
must emphasize the fact that in the year just ended we have incurred a deficit of
$24,575 so that during the two years of 1988 and 1989 we are financing our activi-
ties by way of deficits totalling $1 17.300. We propose that aggregate deficit be dealt
with from the following sources:
1. Application of Cash on hand as of
April 30th. 1988 $ 42.478.00
2. Capital Reduction, i.e. sale of
an Ontario Hydro investment due
December 1988 $ 40.000.00
3. Partial repayment of previous subsidies to the
Memorial Fund by Grand Lodge $ 33.000.00
Total $115,478.00
If Grand Lodge proposes to implement the additional disbursements of an
extraordinary nature as proposed and as detailed in Schedule B of this report, it
will obviously require an additional draw upon our capital funds in the amount of
very nearly $80,000.00. We also must observe the reality that a dues increase
will be necessary as of 1989 and the extent of that increase will be determined by
TORONTO. ONTARIO. IWX 107
whether or not the items contained in Schedule B are approved or otherwise. We
will proceed further with consideration of financial requirements during fiscal
1989 and cause the necessary notice of motion at the proper time as it relates to
the constitutional requirements re notice of a dues increase. We wish to report
that the Grand Treasurer and this Committee have given notice to all concerned
that budgetary forecasts must not be exceeded in any way without the prior
approval of the Grand Treasurer and the Chairman of Audit and Finance during
the year ahead. This has become necessary in view of the precarious deficit
financing being contemplated and to ensure that the deficit that is anticipated is
not increased further by overruns in any of the expense categories.
In accordance with Sec. 134(c) of the Constitution, your Committee submits
for consideration and approval, as set out below, an estimate of the receipts and
expenditures as they relate to the General Fund for the year ending April 30. 1989.
Your Committee believes the estimates of the General Fund Schedule A Dis-
bursements, i.e. $545,925 to be realistic and to provide for items which might rea-
sonably be foreseen to meet the obligations, financial responsibilities and com-
mitments of the General Fund of Grand Lodge for the current financial year. The
items contained in the Request for Supplementary Funding to Cover Expenses of
an Extraordinary Nature, i.e. $45,500 in total, are for the consideration of all
members present during the deliberations of Grand Lodge. Obviously, we have
already alluded to the fact that approval of the schedule B extraordinary expenses
will make it necessary that we withdraw additional capital beyond that already
contemplated and reported upon heretofore which, of course, would decrease the
availability of future investment income.
We respectfully submit this report on behalf of the Committee.
T. RICHARD DAVIES.
Acting Chairman.
Audit and Finance.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON
PUBLIC INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATIONS
This Report was presented by VW. Bro. W. N. Buckingham, Chair-
man, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by VW. Bro.
Buckingham, it was received.
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 Public Information and Communications Committee has continued to
concentrate on assisting lodges to make their written communications attractive,
interesting, readable and motivational. In addition, at several District meetings,
sessions were conducted on the preparation and delivery of brief verbal presenta-
tions and full length speeches.
Moving be>ond internal communications, the Committee presented a two
part seminar at the 1987 Grand Lodge Communication entitled "Opening
Masonic Windows." One section dealt with creating a better understanding of
Masonry through the use of open house events. The other gave guidelines on how
to gain the cooperation and interest of local news media editors and managers.
A new departure for the jurisdiction was introduced this year in the form of
paid advertising. One advertisement. "Setting The Record Straight." was distrib-
uted to all lodges for use in local papers at the discretion of the lodges. Production
costs were assumed by Grand Lodge and the lodges were offered a partial rebate
on insertion costs.
An honour extended to our Grand Lodge and to this Committee was an invi-
tation to present our communication programs to the Grand Masters and Grand
Secretaries of North America at their annual meeting in February.
On behalf of the Committee, comprised of R. W. Bro. E. M. Jones and the
undersigned, our sincere appreciation is expressed for opportunities during the
past year to take some small part in the work of several other Committees, and to
assist a number of Districts and lodges.
Respectfully and fraternally submitted.
W. NORMAN BUCKINGHAM.
Chairman.
1 12 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
REPORT OF THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE
ON LODGE FINANCES
This Report was presented by VW. Bro. S. H. Cohen. Chairman, and
on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by VW. Bro. Cohen, it
was received.
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:
In our Report of the Advisory Committee on Lodge Finances published in
1983. we identified some of the problems resulting from granting COMMUTED
LIFE MEMBERSHIPS as well as problems resulting from holding LODGE
BUILDINGS in a name other than a NON-PROFIT NON-SHARE CAPITAL
CORPORATION. We have now had a further opportunity to study these matters
and after careful consideration, it is our recommendation that:
1. The practice of granting LIFE MEMBERSHIPS by lodges
without adequate financial provisions be discontinued and
be replaced by a plan providing for the purchase of COM-
MUTED LIFE MEMBERSHIPS.
2. All lodge buildings be held in the name of a NON-PROFIT
NON-SHARE CAPITAL CORPORATION.
Life Membership
To assist lodges in implementing the change to adequately financed "COM-
MUTED LIFE MEMBERSHIPS" guidelines have been developed. These guide-
lines set out how to deal with this change during the transitional period, which
should be no more than 5 years, in order to ensure that members who would have
received a Commuted Life Membership during the transitional period are not
penalized. The guidelines can be revised to meet the particular needs of individ-
ual lodges.
The objective is to provide a means for implementing the plan over a 5-year
period, after which time Life Memberships without proper financing would be
discontinued.
ALL MEMBERS of the lodge should be encouraged to purchase a LIFE
MEMBERSHIP during the first year of the plan. However, any member between
the ages of 60 to 65 in 1988. who would have been eligible for Life Membership
during the years 1988 to 1993 would be able to purchase a Life Membership based
on the following payment schedule:
TORONTO. ONTARIO. IWX 113
ASSUMPTIONS — Lodge Dues $60.00
1. Cost of Life Membership (10 X $60.00) $600.00
2. Commutation Fee 30.00
TOTAL COST $630.00
PAYMENT SCHEDULE
Eligible in 1988 — $ 30 (Cost of Commuted Dues)
Eligible in 1989 — 90 (1 years dues + $30)
Eligible in 1990 — 150 (2 years dues + $30)
Eligible in 1991 — 210 (3 years dues + $30)
Eligible in 1992 — 270 (4 years dues + $30)
Eligible in 1993 — 330 (5 years dues + $30)
The plan also provides that all other members can purchase a Life Member-
ship at any time from inception for $630. or whatever the prevailing fee of the
lodge is at any given time.
It may be helpful for discussions in your lodge to set out the advantages of
promoting Life Memberships:
(a) Helps strengthen the financial structure of the lodge by establishing a
Life Membership Fund.
(b) Income from investments of the fund can be used for annual opera-
tions of the lodge.
(c) Suspensions for non-payment of dues will be eliminated.
(d) The investment of every Life Member will continue to perpetuity.
It should be noted that implementation of this Life Membership Plan
requires a change in the By-Laws of the lodge, in accordance with Section 306 of
the Book of Constitution.
LODGE BUILDINGS
We strongly urge that all Lodge Buildings be held in the name of a NON-
PROFIT NON-SHARE CAPITAL CORPORATION incorporated under the Cor-
porations Act of Ontario and operated in accordance with the regulations set out
for the operation of a non-profit organization.
If Lodge Buildings earn income from rental of premises or from a variety of
other miscellaneous income projects there may be a question whether the organi-
zation is operated exclusively for non-profit purposes. It would have to be shown
that the rental income or other miscellaneous income earned has been used by
the organization in carrying out its non-profit activities.
1 14 OKANI) LOIXJF. OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
Once again we would like to emphasize that your committee would be
pleased to respond to inquiries from lodges and welcomes the opportunity of pro-
viding assistance. The primary objective of the committee is to help lodges in any
way possible to strengthen their financial position.
Respectfully and fraternally submitted on behalf of the Committee.
SAMUEL H.COHEN.
Chairman.
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON
COMPUTERIZATION
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. K. L. Whiting. Chairman,
and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro.
Whiting, it was received.
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:
I am pleased to report on the status of the Computerization Committee.
The committee has spent much time analyzing the requirements of Grand
Lodge and the probable ways of resolving them.
We have had discourse with M.W. Bro. T John Arthur and his systems
expert W. Bro. John Mansfield on the applications programs in use by the
Masonic Foundation of Ontario. They have given demos of their programs and
have been gracious enough to provide us with copies of their software, with which
we may experiment on my own personal computer, which I have taken to the
Grand Lodge Offices in Hamilton until our own system is installed.
We have been very fortunate to have the advice and assistance of W. Bro. Mel
Duke in our planning process. W. Bro. Duke has recently completed the
computerization of the Grand Chapter Office of Royal Arch Masons of Canada
in the Province of Ontario and the system for our Membership Records will be
based on the system he designed for them, probably using Dbase IV, which has
just been announced.
As noted, we have not put in place a permanent computer system for Grand
Lodge as yet. This is due to several factors, not the least of which has been our
ongoing negotiations with hardware suppliers. We have felt some of their prices
needed massaging; they agreed, however, they didn't use the same masseur we
did. It is our understanding from various sources that there will be a readjustment
in prices over the next few weeks; in fact, one of our suppliers has already phoned
TORONTO. ONTARIO. IWX 115
to advise that IBM has made an announcement of some additional hardware and
some downsizing in prices.
With this in mind and our total concentration on preparations for this Annu-
al Communication, we have chosen to wait until August to pursue the acquisition
of our hardware. Hopefully, this short delay will result in an actual cost saving.
We have a long way to go before we can proudly say that your Grand Lodge
Offices are computerized: the membership records alone have been estimated to
take two years to input; however, such important tasks as word processing and
accounting will be instituted in parallel.
We appreciate the importance of our task, and in our keen desire to ensure
that our work is done right at the outset, we have specifically chosen to make
haste slowly.
Certainly Most Worshipful Sir. by the time your term of office nears its com-
pletion in 1989. you will be able to say with pride that the Grand Lodge of Canada
in the Province of Ontario has indeed entered the 21st century of technology.
All of which is respectfully submitted on behalf of the committee. M. W. Bro.
Robert E. Davies. R. W. Bro. Colin Mackenzie and myself.
KENNETH L. WHITING.
Chairman.
REPORT OF THE GRAND CHAPLAIN
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. R. Cerwyn Davies. Grand
Chaplain, and received the unanimous endorsation of all present.
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:
Upon my ordination into the ministry of the Christian Church. I was given a
book entitled. "A Manual For Ministers." Its contents covered every eventuality
which someone in my vocation was likely to meet. Thus, when called upon to
conduct a wedding, all I had to do was turn to page 9! Likewise there was a page
for funerals, etc.! Indeed, clergy regard the "Manual" just like others do their
American Express card, thus we never leave home without it! From June 26th.
1951 (the date of my ordination) to February 5th. 1965. (the date of my initiation
into Masonry) the "Manual" was my constant companion.
On that wintery night in Grand Valley. Ontario, devoid of light, I was led into
Scott Lodge. As I listened to the work being exemplified, the thought came to me.
"Gee, these chaps are good readers!" (I recognized the voices even though I could
not see that the "chaps" were not reading at all, but had memorized every word). I
was impressed!
I \U GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL. COMMUNICATION
As I walked home Lhat nighl from Lhe lodge lo Lhe manse. I decided that if. as
a Mason. I was expected to perform "the Work" without a book, could I do less for
my life's vocation? That is why. since that night, no one has seen me reading a
service or ceremony which I have conducted! That was my first lesson in Masonry
— DISCIPLINESHIP. In this respect being a good Mason taught me how to be a
better minister!
After a few (very few) years. I moved from the "Valley" and. yes. it is confes-
sion time, because I became a "hit and run" Mason! (I would hit the Lodge with
my presence, and then run away for a few months!). You see. Lodge had become
somewhat boring - and I just wasn't getting much out of it. Then, one night, the
telephone rang, and I recognized the caller as a Brother from King Solomon's
Lodge. Toronto, and also a member of the Board of my former church in Scar-
borough. "Haven't seen you out in Lodge lately?" "Well, to be honest. I'm not
getting much out of it!" I was not prepared for his 'return serve". "How much do
you put into it?" All of a sudden I felt knee-high to a grasshopper! The dividends I
received, matched the investments I had made! So I learned my second lesson
that the greater the investment, the greater the DIVIDENDS. Slowly, my Masonic
'portfolio' began to grow, as I began to progress through the various phases of
Masonry until I was afforded the privilege of enjoying a view of the Craft from the
East. At this time the yield of the dividends was now at its highest. Or so I thought!
Then our Grand Master. M. W. Bro. William R. Pellow. honoured me by
appointing me Grand Chaplain — a confidence which I respect, a privilege
which I cherish, and a pleasure which I shall always savour. If previously I had
learned the lessons of disciplineship and dividends. I was about to learn the third
'D' which gives Masonry its three dimensional qualities - DEDICATION. This
past year for me. has been a sheer eye opener (Most Worshipful Sir. no pun
intended!) to travel the breadth of Ontario (in the back seat of a cadillac) to visit
Lodges large and small. Although different in size, furnishings, and indeed some-
times, in the performance of 'the Work', nevertheless, there was one quality com-
mon to all - dedication to the Craft - from men wearing Master Masons' aprons
whose fibres still smelled of newness, to men wearing their 50 and 60 year pins
with obvious pleasure. Both, symbols of Masonic pride and dedication. I shall
always cherish my year as Grand Chaplain, because I shall from now on view the
Craft from another set of 'three great lights' — Disciplineship. Dividends, and
Dedication!
To all who served as Chaplains during the year in local Lodges and in the
Districts, as well as the Assistant Grand Chaplain, my thanks for your perform-
ance and cooperation.
As on that cold night of February 5th, 1965. 1 felt that Masonry could make of
me a better minister, so now. as I vacate the Grand Chaplain's Chair, I believe it
has also made of me a better man, to the Honour and Glory of the Great Archi-
tect of the Universe, in Whose Name this report is respectfully submitted.
Eternally Yours. Your Brother and Friend.
R. CERWYN DAV1ES.
Grand Chaplain.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON
ANNUAL COMMUNICATION SEMINARS
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. J. W. Auckland. Chairman,
and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro.
Auckland, it was received.
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 Annual Communication Seminars has organized, for this
year, five seminars which will be presented at 1:30 p.m. and 2:45 p.m. on Tuesday.
July 19. 1988.
The topics and the seminar leaders responsible foi each are:
Lodge Finances V. W. Bro. Samuel H. Cohen
Lodge Buildings R. W. Bro. R. Carl Casselman
Condition of Masonry R. W. Bro. C. Edwin Drew
Office of D.D.G.M. R. W. Bro. Jack Moore
Office of Worshipful Master R. W. Bro. George Hinchliff
The Chairman is indebted to the other member of the Committee, R. W. Bro.
Gerald E. MacDonald. for his wise counsel and assistance in the organizing of
these seminars.
The thanks of the Committee are extended to the seminar leaders and all of
the Brethren who assisted in the preparation and presentation of the seminars.
Since the seminars were started there has been a steady increase in interest as
shown by the increase in attendance each year. This indicates that the Masons of
the jurisdiction are eager to obtain that knowledge which will enable them to
operate their lodges in a more efficient and effective manner.
The committee would appreciate any comments regarding the seminars and

US GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
REPORT OF THE AWARDS COMMITTEE
(WILLIAM MERCER WILSON MEDAL)
This Report was presented by M.W. Bro. J. A. Irvine. Chairman, and
on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by M.W. Bro. Irvine, it
was 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 hereby presents the Report of the Committee on Awards
covering the immediate preceding twelve-month period.
Again, we have had numerous pleas for recognition of this prestigious award,
the William Mercer Wilson Medal. You must all agree with us that this award be
kept extremely exclusive. During the past year your Committee has approved six
petitions. All are listed in the Grand Master's Address.
It is unfortunate that so many of those applying do not follow the rules laid
down in 1945. which are available from the office of the Grand Secretary, upon
request. We feel that we have unintentionally denied this honour to some worthy
brethren simply because the regulations were not observed. We particularly refer
to clause 5 of the format:
5. A STATEMENT OUTLINING WHAT THE LODGE ITSELF HAS
DONE TO RECOGNIZE THE SERVICES OF THE NOMINEE.
This seems to be the greatest stumbling block. Many of these petitioning lodges
have done nothing.
Your Committee feels that under these circumstances that we as a
Committee should be empowered to hold certain petitions in abeyance pending a
letter from the Grand Secretary to the Secretary of the petitioning lodge pointing
out the shortcomings, not promising approval, but making sure the petitioning
lodge correct any omissions in this respect. In this way we feel more appeals
would be approved, and many worthy nominees would be considered more judi-
ciously. It seems sad to penalize a worthy nominee for someone else's shortcom-
ings.
Your Committee extends our thanks to the Grand Secretary and his staff for
their prompt and courteous assistance.
Fraternally submitted.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON
THE GRAND MASTER'S ADDRESS
This Report was presented by M.W. Bro. H. O. Polk, seconded by
M.W. Bro. B. B. Foster and adopted.
To the Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada, in the
Province of Ontario.
Brethren:
The traditional report on the Grand Master's Address on behalf of the Past
Grand Masters has been assigned to me, for which I express my sincere thanks to
M.W. Bro. Pellow.
The Address is testimony to the enthusiasm and energy the Grand Master
has exemplified throughout the year in an attempt to strengthen the fraternity by
various means, to lead Ancient Freemasonry in the great Province of Ontario into
the last decade of this century with renewed direction and course.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. I WX 121
This Committee acknowledges and offers profound thanks to the Grand
Master for his recognition of and generous remarks relative to the Past Grand
Masters.
In particular, we commend him for his tribute to M.W. Bro. James Noble
Allan (Grand Master 1965-67) who resigned from the office of Grand Treasurer
in early 1988. Highly esteemed throughout Ontario, our Brother contributed
many years of devoted service to Grand Lodge while a member of the Provincial
Cabinet. Government of Ontario. For the four years this remarkable man
occupied the offices of Deputy Grand Master and Grand Master, he concurrently
held the burdensome portfolio of Treasurer of Ontario. Government of Ontario.
Moreover, the Grand Master merits special thanks for recognition of M.W.
Bro. Norval Richard Richards having been honoured as a recipient of the "Ontar-
io Ministry of Agriculture and Food Medal" by the Ontario Government.
May these two stalwarts of Grand Lodge be blessed with many years of good
health and contentment to continue their services to mankind.
Your Committee expresses appreciation for the Grand Master's remem-
brance of members of Grand Lodge and loved ones who have been called from
our midst to final rest. R.W. Bro. Wallace M. Secord. Past District Deputy Grand
Master of Niagara District A, and a devoted member of the Board of General
Purposes of Grand Lodge at the time of his passing away, merits special mention.
The thoughtful notation by the Grand Master on the death of the late Margaret
Wright, beloved wife and lady of M.W. Bro. William Lockridge Wright, Dean of
our Past Grand Masters, affirms the Masonic tradition of concern for other peo-
ple. The memory of this gracious lady will linger in our hearts as one of God's
faithful servants.
This Committee prescribes sympathy to families, friends, colleagues and as-
sociates of departed Brethren in this jurisdiction, as well as throughout the Ma-
sonic globe.
The various captions under the heading of "New Ideas" represent, for the
most part, the Grand Master's programme for his two-year mandate of office. The
necessity of reasonable brevity with respect to this report prevents comment on
each individually. Presently, some are at the investigative level, others under
Committee research, while others will require prior legislation by way of constitu-
tional amendment before implementation.
Worthy of special mention are the new pamphlets "A GUIDELINE ON
DISCUSSING MEMBERSHIP IN MASONRY" and "MASONIC CHARITY."
and the revision of the Grand Lodge Memorial Service and the "0" Booklet. The
making available of this printed material will assist the lodges immensely.
The Grand Master is deserving of praise for his appeal to Worshipful Mas-
ters and Lodge Secretaries to upgrade the format, quality, and content of the lodge
summons, as well as to improve the physical condition of lodge halls, exterior and
122 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
interior. This urging will surely instill increased interest in more members with re-
spect to the activities of their lodges, and pride in their renovated Masonic prem-
ises.
The Committee on the Address confirms and approves the following actions
by the Grand Master:
1. The reappointment and appointment of R.W. Bro. T. R. Davies and V.W. Bro.
Samuel Cohen respectively, as honorary members of the Board of General
Purposes, provided for by virtue of Section 131(e) of the Constitution.
2. The appointment of M.W. Bro. A. Lou Copeland. P.G.M.. as Grand Treasurer
to complete the term of office of M.W. Bro. J. N. Allan.
3. The appointment of R.W. Bro. K. L. Whiting as Assistant to the Grand Secre-
tary.
4. The recommendations of the several Grand Representatives from and to
Grand Jurisdictions with which Grand Lodge is in amity.
5. The appointment of four (4) Grand Stewards between the 1987 and 1988 Com-
munications of Grand Lodge, and who we feel certain are worthy, and that
they be awarded Past Rank.
6. The recommendation of Past Rank for five (5) Brethren who for valid reasons
do not qualify for the rank of Past Master.
Your Committee thanks the Grand Master for acknowledgements of service
rendered by faithful servants of Grand Lodge throughout the past and in prior
years:
1. R.W. Bro. J. W. Millar. Vice-President of the Board of General Purposes, rela-
tive to his resignation as Chairman of the Committee on Audit and Finance.
2. R.W. Bros. William Finlay and Earl Jones who have determined not to seek re-
election to the Board of General Purposes at this particular time.
3. R.W. Bro. James Cameron Guy. Assistant to the Grand Secretary, on his retire-
ment from employment on the Grand Lodge office staff.
4. The District Deputy Grand Masters, members of the Board of General Pur-
poses, the Grand Secretary and his staff, the Worshipful Masters and officers
of the constituent lodges.
5. R.W. Bro. David James Broomhead, Grand Historian, who has suffered a
stroke.
In a united voice we say "thank you" for your individual contributions to our
beloved Craft.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. 19SX 12?
The Committee joyfully congratulates:
1. The six (6) worthy recipients of the William Mercer Wilson Medal.
2. Strong Lodge No. 423. Sundridge (Muskoka — Parry Sound District), and
Stanley Lodge No. 426. Toronto (Toronto District 1) for their approaching 100
years of active existence. May each member wear the distinctive gold braid
with pride, mindful of the heritage passed on to them by their forefathers.
3. Hammond Lodge No. 327. Wardsville (Chatham District) on having its new
premises dedicated by the Grand Master on April 30. 1988.
We note, with gratitude, new facilities are currently under construction to
provide a new Masonic home for the lodges in Oil Springs (Sarnia District) and
Gore Bay (Muskoka — Parry Sound District).
A careful examination of Appendix I to III of the Address will confirm the
Grand Master has been unusually active throughout the past year, attending Dis-
trict Receptions; Anniversary and Centennial Celebrations: visitation to Grand
Lodge Communications: Conferences in Canada and the United States, and to
other Masonic bodies. This itinerary must surely have been burdensome and de-
manding on the strength of the Grand Master.
This Committee wishes to congratulate and thank M.W. Bro. Pellow on the
detailed accounting of this stewardship and wish him. and his lovely lady Leitha.
the necessary strength and courage to continue dynamic leadership of our Craft
as he embarks upon the final year of his administration.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the Committee.

124 GRAND LODGE OE CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
REPORT ON THE MASONIC FOUNDATION
OF ONTARIO
M.W. Bro. N. R. Richards, President, presented the following report,
and on motion, seconded by M.W. Bro. W. K. Bailey, it was received by
Grand Lodge.
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 a privilege to present to you the Report of the 25th Annual Meeting of the
Masonic Foundation of Ontario held on July 19. 1988. at the Royal York Hotel.
Toronto. Ontario. Although the members of the Foundation meet but once a year,
this report provides an opportunity to document the actions and decisions of the
Foundation since our last Annual Meeting. The Mechanics of operation of the
Foundation do not lend themselves to easy communication with the members of
the Craft. The Foundation recognizes the importance of the District Deputy
Grand Masters and the Worshipful Masters to dialogue with brethren about the
purpose and programs of the Foundation. To this end each District Deputy
Grand Master and each Worshipful Master receives a copy of the Annual Report
of the Masonic Foundation of Ontario and the Financial Statements of the past
fiscal year and are requested to communicate the information to the Brethren.
The Foundation is ever conscious of the objectives contained in the Act by
which it was established in 1964 which are to receive, maintain, manage, control
and use donations exclusively for charitable purposes within Ontario. A purpose
of this report is to advise the membership of the programs of the Foundation, to
communicate not only to Masons but to all people in the communities where we
live about our activities so that they may better understand and appreciate our
presence in their midst. If Masons are seeking a window through which to project
their concerns about people and the action being taken, the Foundation provides
it. Are we using it?
Your Directors met on September 19, November 7. March 15 and April 16.
For the first three meetings we enjoyed the facilities of Pellow Associates in To-
ronto and of Grand Lodge office, Hamilton, for the April meeting. The Founda-
tion activities found expression in projects such as:
1 — Bursary Program
2 — Hearing Research
3 — Voice Program
4 — Autistic Homes
5 — District Programs
6 — Youth Programs
7 — Fund Raising Program for 1988-89
TORONTO. ONTARIO. 19SS 125
I shall comment briefly on each of these projects. I am sorry that time does
not permit giving to each project the attention it deserves. Should you wish fur-
ther information I urge you to get in touch with the director(s) associated with a
particular project.
The Bursary Program:
The Bursary Program is a long standing project. We are indebted to Vice
President Wallace E. McLeod for the oversight of this important activity. We are
particularly fortunate that Professor McLeod. a faculty member of Victoria Col-
lege. University of Toronto, brings to the bursary program a feeling and under-
standing of the need for financial assistance for post secondary students. He re-
ports as follows:
Once again your Committee on bursaries has had a successful year. During
the first ten months we disbursed more assistance than ever before, but it was not
enough. The budgeted funds were gone, and cries for help were still coming in.
The life of a student is not just a bed of roses, and it can become unexpectedly
complicated. Some parents cannot assist their children and others will not. Jobs
are scarce, competition is tough, living expenses are higher than ever before, uni-
versity and college bursary funds have not kept pace with inflation, and
unexpected emergencies are bound to occur. Because the need was so great, we
were on the point of committing much of next year's budget to meet it. when the
Directors authorized an extraordinary one-time supplement to bring us up to
date. Altogether, including this supplement, between May 1987 and 30th April
1988 the Masonic Foundation of Ontario awarded bursaries to 131 students in 37
post-secondary educational institutions, with an aggregate of over $62,000 — a re-
cord which is not easy to beat. Of all the province-wide privately funded bursary
programs that are designated to help students, ours is probably the best, the
fairest, the most expeditious in rendering aid. and certainly one of the most gener-
ous. It deserves our continued support.
Hearing Research:
Director Dr. Alan N. Newell liaises with Dr. R. V Harrison of the Hospital
for Sick Children on the Hearing Research Project. Dr. Harrison indicates that at
Sunnybrook Hospital Dr. Julian Nedzelski has been active in assessing potential
candidates for future implantation program and an audiologist has been taken
on who will deal specifically with cochlear implantations, both in pre-operative
assessment and in post-implantation testing and rehabilitation. One is encour-
aged with the possibility that in choosing recipients for implantation, children
will be given a priority. Dr. Harrison reports that on the research side good prog-
ress is being made in the assessment of electrical stimulation of the auditory sys-
tem in animal models of hearing loss.
Further financial assistance is requested from the Foundation to support
deafness research.
126 GRAND l.ODGF OF CANADA ANNUA1 COMMUNICATION
Voice Program:
Vice President Frank J. Bruce is the Director associated with the Voice Prog-
ram. He reports as follows:
This program has grown rapidly throughout Ontario. The Executive Direc-
tor. Rosemary Pryde. expresses the thanks of VOICE to the Masons of Ontario for
their continued support. Chapters are now operating in Toronto. Ottawa.
Timmins. North Bay and the latest in London.
Special thanks to R.W. Bro. Ronald Campbell of Ottawa District "1". who
headed a drive and raised over $10,000 for the Ottawa Chapter of VOICE. Frank
J. Bruce attended to represent the Foundation. It was a delight to hear children
from the age of 5 years to 10 years speak of their experience in the program and to
show the results as they spoke on their world of yesterday, today and tomorrow. It
is indeed a great credit to their therapist and teachers who devote so much time
and dedication to the children. Thanks also to V.W. Bro. Wayne Nelson of
Englehart who is in the middle of a fund drive for the Timmins Chapter. A job
well done by all. It is appropriate to make special note of the parents of these chil-
dren who give so much of their time and money not only for their own but for the
overall good of VOICE FOR HEARING IMPAIRED CHILDREN.
Autistic Homes:
Director C. John Woodburn serves as liaison officer to the Foundation on
Autistic Home Project. It is gratifying to note that early this year a plaque was re-
ceived from those responsible for Kerry's Place expressing thanks to the Masons
of Ontario for their continued financial support to the Autistic Homes Project.
The program has shown positive results to the extent that the Social and Welfare
Services of the Provincial Government recognizes that the kind of work done at
Kerry's Place can be used throughout Ontario. It shows that those affected with
Autism can find a place in the business world. For example, participants of the
program are involved in the purchase and operation of laundry marts in
Orangeville and Tweed. We are proud to be associated in projects that help to re-
habilitate young people and give them purpose and capability to become ab-
sorbed into the life of the community of which they are a part.
District Programs:
It is encouraging to recognize increased activity at the District level. The dis-
bursement of a total of more than $148,000 is a positive indication of the interest
by the Masons of our Grand Jurisdiction to share concerns of their community.
Directors William J. Finlay. Dr. Alan N. Newell. W. Lome Pacey and Edsel C.
Steen served as liaison officers for the projects in their particular areas. Directors
T John Arthur and William K. Bailey liaised particularly between the projects in
the Toronto Districts and the Foundation.
The varying areas of interest and concern are reflected in the following sum-
mary of District Projects by Secretary-Treasurer. T. John Arthur:
TORONTO. ONTARIO. I9KS 127
"Two Districts provided support for two homes for distressed or battered
women. Two Districts provided support to the Voice for Hearing Impaired Chil-
dren Program in their area. Wilson District chose to support a local Association
for Mental Retardation. Toronto District 2 "86" gave a very substantial contribu-
tion to the Arthritis Society of Canada for research purposes. Toronto District 2
"87" and Toronto District 5 "87" provided funds for the Ontario Lupus Society.
Grey District provided funds for a family which received a serious setback as a re-
sult of a car accident, the result of which left Mrs. Curtis in a state of coma for
many months. Mrs. Curtis has since passed away. Five Districts provided support
to local hospitals. Windsor District in memory of the late M.W. Bro. Dr. George
E. Turner, provided funds to a new Chronic Care Hospital for a common area
where patients can visit with their families. Toronto 1 raised funds for an experi-
ment for teenage treatment as outpatients (children from out of town) who can
with the cooperation of hospital volunteers live independent of the Hospital. The
experiment is working well. The other Districts provided funds for a variety of
hospital equipment.

Appreciation:
It would be inexcusable if I neglected to single out certain Brethren who have
contributed to the Foundation through their interest, support and encourage-
ment. The Grand Master. Dr. William R. Pellow has been generous and positive
in supporting the purpose and program of the Foundation. This encouragement
found expression in a tangible way when he presented the Foundation with
$12,000 which he accepted from the "72" Worshipful Masters with whom he asso-
ciated. This gift was given as "seed" money for the forthcoming Special Fund
Raising Project. The contribution of the Secretary-Treasurer. T. John Arthur, is
first rate and we are deeply indebted to him.
Time brings change and it is with regret I report that William J. Finlay is re-
tiring from the Board of Directors. He shared his competence and commitment
generously with us and was an effective liaison person between the activities in
the eastern area and the Foundation. We appreciate and value the contribution of
the ex-officio Directors, the Deputy Grand Master. David C. Bradley, and the
Chairman of the Committee on Benevolence. T. Richard Davies.
The programs of the Foundation depend largely upon the generous financial
contributions of the brethren. For this we are proud and thankful. During the
year we were able to develop an arrangement whereby Mr. John M. Boersma
made the use of $25,000 available to the Foundation. The generous gifting
through bequest and other funding is gratefully acknowledged.
The 25th Anniversary Project:
I choose to close this Annual Report with special reference to a recommen-
dation from the Annual Report of a year ago. The Board of Directors
recommended to the membership of the Masonic Foundation of Ontario that
Grand Lodge approve for July 1988 a one million dollar Capital Fund Raising
Project to establish in Ontario communities a support network for addressing
problems of youth and drugs. That recommendation was approved and in a mat-
ter of hours the fund raising project will be launched.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. 19X8 129
The responsibility of choosing a particular subject that is appropriate and ac-
ceptable to a jurisdiction as far flung geographically as the Grand Lodge of Cana-
da in the Province of Ontario presents a very real challenge. Much thought, dia-
logue and deliberation have gone into the process of selection. We are especially
grateful for the help and guidance of persons who have been closely associated in
an active way with progress designed to help young people who are struggling
with problems related to the use of alcohol and drugs. Fred Burford. Walter
Cebrynsky and Judy Bowman shared with us their first-hand knowledge from the
organizations with which they are associated. In the days ahead you will hear
more about why this particular project was chosen and how our network of lodges
and members from north to south and east to west, from rural and metropolitan
areas, may become involved in a positive way.
You can appreciate that the organization from this project has received pri-
ority attention by the Board of Directors. Under the Chairmanship of Ex-officio
Director. Deputy Grand Master. David C. Bradley, a task force sought a volunteer
to chair the Special Fund Raising Project. The Foundation is delighted that
James T. Cassie accepted the Chairmanship of the project. Mr. Cassie. along with
T. John Arthur. Frank J. Bruce. Lloyd R. Bittle. Donald A. Fear and Duncan J.
McFadgen comprise the Fund Raising Committee.
The Campaign will be officially launched on Wednesday. July 20. at 1:30
p.m. in the Canadian Room of the Royal York Hotel. The Foundation is indebted
to Director C. John Woodburn for organizing the event of the launching program.
This promises to be an historic occasion on the eve of the 25th birthday of the
Masonic Foundation of Ontario. The Masons of Ontario have a long and distin-
guished record of being charitable to help the needs of others. Using our re-
sources, our lodges and our members, we will be able to provide help and assist-
ance to young people, boys and girls and men and women, to wrestle with and
overcome the ravages of drug and alcohol use. The Masonic Foundation of On-
tario asks you to form an indivisible chain of network support and help in a wor-
thy cause. This will be a satisfying experience.

13(1 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
REPORT OF THE LIBRARY COMMITTEE
This Report was presented to R.W. Bro. R. S. Throop. Chairman, and
on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Throop.
it was received.
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 pleasant task, as Chairman, and on behalf of the Committee, to
report to you on the activities of the Grand Lodge Library.
The members of the Committee are: R. W. Bros. Wayne E. Elgie. James A. J.
Hughes. George W. Kerr, and Jacob Pos.
We are pleased to report that there was a modest increase in the number of
visitors to the Library during the past year. The number of books borrowed by the
brethren is encouraging indeed, being more than double the number a year ago.
This increase in usage is most gratifying and can perhaps be attributed, in no
small measure, to the excellent programmes being promoted by the Masonic
Education Committee under the chairmanship of R. W. Bro. James A. J. Hughes,
and to the study courses in the "College of Freemasonry".
The Library, like any other service, is only of value if it has people dedicated
to meeting the needs of its users. In this regard we have been fortunate to be able,
once again, to call on the willing contribution of time and effort by our volunteer
staff under the co-ordination of R. W. Bro. George Wilkes of Dundurn Lodge No.
475. Our thanks to the following volunteers for their hours of service: Bros. Cliff
Tootell, Chester Anderson. David Gordon. Harold Prowse, Bob Showkenik. Les
Reid. Fred Scott, Cy Carr. Charles Nicholson. Robert Faulds. Jim MacKenzie.
and those who may have relieved from time to time.
Brethren from every part of this Jurisdiction are availing themselves of our
"mail-out" service. Just how far afield our service is extended may be seen from
the following:
"We really appreciate being able to use them (tapes) as they
were very helpful in our Program of Masonic Education in the
Rio Grande Valley."
— signed W. M. Gower. Grand Orator.
The Grand Lodge of Texas A.F. & A.M.
We acknowledge, once again, with thanks, all contributions of books
received throughout the year. We also welcome all suggestions in regard to books,
periodicals, etc. that you feel might be an asset to our collection.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. I WX 131
To the D.D.G.M.s. and their Committee Chairmen, our thanks for your sup-
port and promotion of the Library. It is only by your continuing efforts that the
Library can succeed in being the vehicle for the advancement of Masonic know-
ledge that it has the capability for.
As always, the Grand Secretary and his staff have been more than willing to
provide advice and assistance. Our thanks for their efforts — it is much appreci-
ated.
Brethren, there is a wealth of Masonic knowledge available in the books and
tapes of the Grand Lodge Library. A brief note or phone call will bring a willing
and prompt response to your request. It is your Library - use it.
Respectfully and fraternally submitted on behalf of the Committee.

REPORT OF THE
LONG RANGE PLANNING COMMITTEE
This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. H. Neil Britton, Acting
Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by
R.W. Bro. Britton, it was received.
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 submit this Annual Report on behalf of the Long Range
Planning Committee. The Committee includes: R. W Bros. C. S. Brooks, A. R.
Burgess, L. G. Byers, W. J. Finlay. E. M. Jones, G. E. MacDonald. J. C. Piper, W.
E. Rawson, D. G. Walker, S. R. Whiteley and the writer. We were fortunate in hav-
ing R. W. Bro. D. C. Bradley present at most of our meetings.
The Committee is sorry that R. W. Bro. Finlay was unable to continue active-
ly as Chairman. His untiring efforts at the beginning of the year were the basis of
any success we may have had, and our appreciation and future good wfshes are
extended to him.
Six meetings, together with much work in between, centred on the following
subjects, as indicated:
132 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
District Restructuring
The need for restructuring a number of Districts was identified last year. The
White Paper — Redistribution of Masonic Districts in the Province of Ontario,
presented by M. W. Bro. W. R. Pellow, G.M.. was prepared and distributed by the
Committee to the Districts and Lodges by mid-November. Replies and comments
were received from Districts. Lodges and individual members. The magnitude
and nature of the response was such that the Board of General Purposes, on Jan-
uary 9. 1988. decided that the timetable could not be met. It is understood that the
District Deputy Grand Masters agreed to submit their respective proposals for
restructuring before leaving office in July. 1988. It is further understood that fol-
lowing study of the proposals received, a District Restructuring plan will be pre-
pared and submitted to the Districts and Lodges for consideration at the Annual
Communication of Grand Lodge in 1989.
Regalia
Because regalia represents such a significant portion of the costs incurred by
a District, it is of particular interest to the Committee in its consideration of Dis-
trict Restructuring. Accordingly, a significant amount of time was allotted to the
investigation of ways and means of keeping these costs manageable. Fortunately
R. W. Bro. MacDonald. the Chairman of the Regalia Committee, is also a mem-
ber of our Committee.
Computerized Voting
The topic of earlier reporting of election results at the Annual Communica-
tion of Grand Lodge led to the investigation of computerized voting. The Com-
mittee is grateful for the cooperation of R.W. Bro. K. L. Whiting. Assistant to the
Grand Secretary, in attending a meeting when this was discussed. While this
method of voting appears premature at this time, it is recommended that the
Committee on Computerization of Grand Lodge address the future availability of
Computerized Voting being handled by the Grand Lodge computer.
A further discussion ensued regarding the type of computer as well as soft-
ware programs under review by Grand Lodge. This Committee recommends that
Grand Lodge keep the districts and lodges informed of its equipment and pro-
grams to ensure compatibility and communication between them.
Grand Lodge and District Long Range Planning Committees
While Long Range Planning Committees have been appointed by the Board
of General Purposes annually since 1979. the Committee agrees that it would be
in the best interests of Freemasonry for each District to have such a Committee.
However, it is advisable that they have some measure of continuity and that the
terms of reference and their method of appointment be defined. To this end the
following is recommended for consideration:
(A) Grand Lodge Long Range Planning Committee
TORONTO. ONTARIO. I98S
1. APPOINTMENT
That a Grand Lodge Long Range Planning Committee
continue to be established and appointed by the Board of Gen-
eral Purposes: and further, that consideration be given to estab-
lishing it as a Standing Committee.
2. PURPOSE
The Grand Lodge LRPC shall discuss, consider and iden-
tify subjects of a long range nature which may affect Freema-
sonry in our Grand Jurisdiction. In so doing, it shall review and
assess future requirements of The Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of
Canada in the Province of Ontario. It shall have a high degree
of flexibility in recognizing topics which might affect all mem-
bers of the Craft and the well ruling and governing of our
Grand Jurisdiction. While much information and opinions
may be gathered and developed respecting subjects identified
for long range action, the implementation of any action
required will normally rest with others as determined by the
Board of General Purposes.
3 REPORTING
The Committee shall keep Minutes of its deliberations and
shall submit a report annually to the Board of General Pur-
poses with its recommendations.
4. STRUCTURE
The Committee will comprise nine (9) members, each serv-
ing a term of three (3) years of whom one third or three (3) shall
be appointed each year. Any Term of office may be terminated
by a request in writing by either party. In addition to the above
the Deputy Grand Master shall be ex-officio. a member of this
Committee.
(B) District Long Range Planning Committee
1. APPOINTMENT
That a District Long Range Planning Committee be
appointed by the District Deputy Grand Master.
2. PURPOSE
The District LRPC shall discuss, consider and identify
subjects of a long range nature which may affect Freemasonry
in our Grand Jurisdiction or in the District.
134 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
3. REPORTING
The Committee shall keep Minutes of its deliberations and
shall submit two (2) copies of its report annually to the District
Deputy Grand Master, who will forward one (1) copy to the
Grand Lodge LRPC.
4. STRUCTURE
The Committee will comprise six (6) members, each serv-
ing a term of three (3) years of whom one third or two (2) shall
be appointed each year. Any Term of Office may be terminated
by a request in writing by either party.
Every organization, to be successful, must have a clear understanding of its
objectives. With these in mind, plans must be prepared and continually updated
as to how to meet those objectives. When accepted, the plans must be imple-
mented.
We believe that while our Committee fulfils a useful role, its function will be
improved as District Long Range Planning Committees are established through-
out the Jurisdiction and the plans proposed by the Grand Lodge Long Range
Planning Committee will have the benefit of a much broader basis of input. Plans
so developed should have a high level of acceptance and their implementation
facilitated.
The Committee is confident that Freemasonry will continue to meet the chal-
lenges and fulfil its purpose in our ever changing society.
Respectfully and fraternally submitted on behalf of the Committee.
H. NEIL BRITTON.
Acting Chairman.
TORONTO. ONTARIO. IWX 135

216 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE
To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master and the Grand Lodge of A.F. and
A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario.
Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren:
Since 1855. the duty of this Committee has been to carefully review all
Proceedings laid before it by the Grand Secretary, and to report accordingly to
Grand Lodge. Being in amity with over 125 Grand Lodges throughout the world,
and receiving the Proceedings from most English speaking jurisdictions, affords
the reviewer the opportunity to interpret the pulse of global Freemasonry
representative of over five million regular masons. Due to space limitations many
items of great interest have had to be left out. It is our hope that if through these
brief reviews you wish for further knowledge on a highlighted topic, that you will
request the copy of the specific Proceedings from the Grand Lodge Library 361
King St. West. Hamilton. Ontario L8P 1B4 and do your own research on the
subject. All Proceedings received along with back copies of the past three years,
are available upon request.
Most Grand Lodges are facing declining memberships for various reasons,
many of which are common throughout. Remedial strategies are abating those
losses. None are addressing it any more vigorously than our own Grand Lodge.
However, significant growth and development continues in areas such as India
and China.
Like any craft lodge, as goes the Master so goes the lodge; similarly
throughout Grand Lodges it would appear that as goes the Grand Master so goes
that Grand Lodge. The freshness of the new ideas these leaders bring to our
brotherhood is exemplary of their vision, dedication, and commitment. The more
successful and progressive Grand Lodges seem to have strengthened their
positions through well researched five - and ten-year long range planning, not by
crisis response management.
Obviously, the place one begins a career will always hold special in one's
heart. Job's Daughters, Rainbow Girls and DeMolay offer a great place where
future leaders, future supporters and future masons can be trained. They
represent the finest character building organizations and offer one of the possible
answers for future membership in the masonic fraternity. However, reports
continue to indicate that in general lodges do not support these youth
organizations with adult leaders.
In many instances Masonry has not been holding its own against the
negative attitudes of apathy, indifference and impassivity. Some lodges have had
no petitions for more than two years. Some have a waiting list of twenty plus
candidates. Why? Consolidation of small lodges can be seen as a strengthening
factor. There are so many bright spots noted which are most encouraging and
which take some of the sadness and sting out of the low points. With good
leadership, interest, enthusiasm and commitment, more and more lodges are

regaining prominence in their communities and adding masonic flavor to local
activities. These four ingredients are necessary for the success of any venture, but
are absolutely vital to every masonic lodge.
During the year, we have reviewed some 60 copies of Proceedings that were
sent to the Grand Secretary's office. The table of contents provides easy access to
those Grand Lodges incorporated in this year's presentation.

The Grand Master's theme "Freemasonry: Our Guide for Living" was the
focus for the year. He recalls how in our world of turmoil man is born with some
very basic needs: to express himself; to have someone listen to him; to create; to
help others while he helps himself; to love and be loved; to have hope for success,
reward, acceptance and in such pursuit must have faith in God, faith in himself
and faith in mankind.
Suggestions by the Grand Master include:
- developing a manual for the Investigating Committee
- erecting signs to let travelling Masons know when and where Lodges meet
- supplying small town newspapers with pictures and information to
stimulate interest in Freemasonry.
52 Bursaries of $900 each were awarded from the Higher Education Bursary
Fund supported by each constituent lodge. A representative award was made for
the first time at the Grand Master's Banquet. The Brethren were cautioned by the
Committee on the Grand Master's Address that raffling and gambling for the
purpose of putting funds into the Bursary Fund was wrong and unmasonic.
Masonic charity should be individual and not organized.
Grand Representatives must sign a register. Three missed Annual
Communications in a row results in forfeiture of appointment. "That pictures,
either still or moving, may not be taken within any Masonic meeting until the
meeting is ended and the V.O.TS.L. is closed." was a ruling of the Grand Master.
One motion at Grand Lodge that "Each District shall have a District
Representative who will serve as the district's representative on the Board of
General Purposes," was defeated.
The Conference of Grand Masters In North America was hosted by the
Grand Lodge of Alberta on February 15 through 18, 1987, for the first time outside
of United States. Our Grand Master, M.W.Bro. A. Lou Copeland was Chairman
of the auspicious successful event. In preparation for the 1988 Olympics, a
Committee was struck with the purpose to provide: a) an access of information; b)
emergency assistance; c) fraternal fellowship to all visiting Masons in Calgary
and area during this world famous event. All craft lodges in the Calgary area were
to be coordinated to highlight special lodge activities during the month of
February. Grand Lodge media liaison with their communications expertise were
available to assist any Grand Lodge Officer who may be requested to give an
interview.
A new Charter was granted to Ye Olde Craft Lodge U.D. The institution of a
Daylight Lodge in Calgary was recommended. From the Research and Education
Committee report it was quite evident that lodges actively pursuing educational
programs were generating interest among their members by making them better
220 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA
informed and consequently more effective Masons. The Proceedings appear to
have been produced by the word processing equipment of the new computer in
the Grand Secretary's office.
"Brotherly Love Exemplified: The Freemason As a Role Model" is the theme
of the newly installed Grand Master - M.W.Bro. Robert E. Juthner. "The
Freemason must be a role model for all. As we. as Masons, are supposed to be
BUILDERS, not just maintenance workers, remember that simply maintaining
the status quo does not achieve our aims. We must intensify our own work on the
Ashlar to achieve that great end."
BRITISH COLUMBIA - 1987

The Grand Master's theme - "A Year of Action" was such within this
jurisdiction. "Although Masonry is not without its critics, by each individual
Mason actively practicing Freemasonry, by presenting a positive image within
our communities, our Churches, our work place and especially within our family
structures, we can effectively combat and answer such critics. The challenge rests
with each Master Mason. You and you alone bear the burden to ensure the future
of the Craft. Be positive, be active, but most of all be proud to be a Freemason. We
need no better objective to defeat the critics of Freemasonry."
The Grand Master commended the many Brethren involved in the
presentation of summer lodge meetings held weekly in Freemasons' Hall during
Expo 86. Average attendance was just over 100. He also attended the special
meeting of the Daylight Lodges of North America at Meridian Lodge No. 108 on
July 26.
The fifth annual Grand Masonic Day, an annual educational seminar, was
held in Vancouver where a wide variety of optional topics was presented to new
lodge officers and Master Masons. Several regional mini-Masonic Education
Days held throughout the jurisdiction addressed similar topics. The Committee
on Education and Research finds it is now shifting to an emphasis on being a
resource agency providing new ideas, topics for talks, and a forum for the
exchange of programme ideas for Masonic Education, rather than merely
providing support and encouragement.
Favourable progress is being made in the computerization of the accounts of
Grand Lodge. All lodges are participating in the "Comely Programme". Per
capita fee is $9.00 annually. A Masonic Building Fund was created by
transferring $100,000 from the Contingency Fund to be used for assisting Lodges
or their building companies experiencing grave financial difficulties, in
maintaining their Lodge premises and properties, through an interest bearing
loan. 162 deserving post-secondary students received $34,425 from the Masonic
Bursary Fund.
FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 221
A resolution dealing with the relocation of the physical penalties from the
Obligations was withdrawn by order of the Grand Master. Role expectations of
Grand Representatives were outlined in an amendment to the Constitution
allowing the Grand Master to recommend forfeiture if the Representative fails to
attend three consecutive Annual Communications.
The Award of the Order of Meritorious Service established in 1958 is
presented for exceptionally outstanding service to the Craft, far beyond the usual
duties and responsibilities of an officer or member. It has only been presented
once. However, reviewing the multitude of contributions, achievements and
services over the past half century of senior past Grand Master Dr. Richard G.
Large, there is nov. a second recipient. At age 86, Dr. Large continues his service
as organist of his lodge.

The Masonic Enhancement committee approved 2 loans for lodge
improvements, as well $50 to each of the successful participants in the
Speechcraft classes. Additional grants were made to the Associated Arts Festival
and to a lodge musical scholarship. Lodge name signs purchased from Claude
Neon ($38,623) were made available for installation on free standing lodge halls.
Five regular meetings of the Board of General Purposes addressed many
topics. The inevitable shifting of population throughout Manitoba necessitated
the termination of one lodge and two amalgamations. Suitable computer
equipment for administrative purposes was purchased for the Grand Secretary's
office. It would appear that through its use, considerable savings were made in
printing the Proceedings. The Counsellor Program, somewhat similar to our
Mentors Programme was adopted. A Past Secretary's Jewel is now an approved
item of regalia. Bylaws of a District must be submitted for approval by the Grand
Master. The per capita levy was increased by 50 cents to $15.30 annually. Elected
members to the Board serve for a three year term.
A Master Mason exchange program whereby a Master Mason is selected by
his lodge to prepare a short masonic talk, to be presented to another lodge, with a
Master Mason of that lodge doing the same, is on the horizon. Each speaker is
accompanied by a number of his lodge brethren when he makes his presentation.
"The Challenge of Change" was the keynote address at the Fourth Annual
Workshop, a three day retreat held at a private resort in Gimli. Meals,
accommodations and a wide variety of masonic subjects and officers'
responsibilities were enjoyed by 165 members from 55 lodges for a registration fee
of just $65.
222 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA
The Condition of Freemasonry report encourages lodge "Open Houses"
where brethren invite their non-masonic friends to a social evening at which well
skilled brethren share Freemasonry with them. Wives of brethren and the invited
guests are encouraged to attend. It seems to be attracting men in their thirties who
are looking for self-improvement and something more rewarding in their way of
life.
The Project 86/87 is to provide financial support in the amount of $70,000 for
the Order of Eastern Star Chalet Expansion, an extended care facility.
At the Conference of Grand and District Grand Lodges of Canada held in
Winnipeg, much discussion was given the impending 250th Anniversary of the
establishment of the first Masonic Lodge in Canada at Annapolis Royal, Nova
Scotia in June of 1738. The outcome was a formal request to the Canadian Postal
Authorities to recognize the 250th Anniversary of Canadian Freemasonry by
issuing a commemorative postage stamp in the fall of 1988.

A Special Communication of Grand Lodge was held to deal solely with the
Masonic Housing Project. The erection of a senior citizen's apartment complex to
which subsidized rent will be available, with no financial liability to Grand
Lodge or individual Craft lodges was approved. The N.B. Masonic Charities and
Housing Co.Ltd., with letters of patent issued by the provincial government, has
applied for a charitable income tax number so that contributions will become
income tax deductible.
This project may partly answer "What do Masons do?" All lodges and
brethren should benefit from renewed pride and enthusiasm. The increased
public awareness may remove some of the secrecy surrounding our ancient
institution and stimulate a steady increase in membership.
The Grand Master distributed to each District Deputy a copy of the video
cassette of our G. L. of Canada in the Province of Ontario July, 1986
Communication for use in their respective districts.
Motions approved by Grand Lodge:
The Board of General Purposes shall act for and on behalf of Grand
Lodge when that body is not in session but all decisions and actions
taken will be subject to ratification by Grand Lodge.
FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 223
A mandatory Mentor Program, as an educational tool which lodges
will use as their main method of transmitting masonic education to
all members, not just the new members, be developed.
The per capita levy to Grand Lodge be $10 per annum.
Only one request for benevolent assistance was received during the year.

Grand Master - M.W.Bro. Charles H. Thompson

From the Grand Master's Address - "In keeping with the directive of Grand
Lodge in 1983. the committee on the realignment of Masonic Districts has been
working hard this year to reach some acceptable resolve. They have approached
the problem in an effort to balance the large districts with smaller districts and to
combine others to provide them with improved working arrangements. The
committee has arrived at recommendations in some areas, but still has work to do
and they hope to be able to complete the work in 1987."
The new Grand Secretary reviewed his first year in office under a
restructured Grand Lodge Office. It will take some time before a new equilibrium
is attained; however, with the Past Grand Secretary 'on calf as a willing but
unpaid consultant, the incumbent's 'growing pains' have been somewhat
lessened. This jurisdiction has a Masonic Secretaries' Association which holds its
annual meeting on the first day of Grand Lodge. Efforts to obtain tax exemption
for the lodges from the Minister of Municipal Affairs is ongoing. The Liability
Insurance Policy of Grand Lodge is difficult to interpret; however all brethren are
covered at all lodge meetings. A motion that the Grand Master be requested to
look into the possibility of having the Nova Scotia Freemason resume was passed.
If a brother qualifies for a Fifty Year Jewel and has affiliated with another
lodge, which lodge applies for the jewel? Answer - Normally, the lodge of which
he is a member at the time he has completed fifty years. If he did not demit from
his "Mother" lodge in which he received his degrees, that lodge would apply.
Should minutes of meetings be typewritten on loose leaf sheets or hand
written in a bound book? Answer - Minutes may be typed or handwritten, this
would be an individual lodge or secretary's choice. Petition forms, when reprinted
should have a space for postal code and telephone number of the petitioner.
A Secretary's Long Service Medal is awarded by Grand Lodge along with a
20 Year Bar and 30 Year Bar.
The Advisory Board held five meetings in 1985 on the same dates and at the
same places as the G.L. Board of Finance and the Board of Trustees of the
224 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA
Freemasons' Home in Windsor. The Board of Jurisprudence pointed out that a
brother who holds only a demit, without being in good standing as a member of
another lodge than that which issued the demit, is not entitled to visit a Nova
Scotia lodge. A visitor must be "a member in good standing in a warranted lodge."
A demitted member is not "a member in good standing" in his previous lodge as
he has withdrawn from membership in that lodge and thus is not a member at all.
In conversation with many brethren, the Grand Historian found they would
like more masonic instruction. "They feel insecure attending meetings due to a
lack of knowledge in the Craft. We receive them into our order, confer the three
degrees and in many cases our masonic instruction seems to end there."
Annual Dues for each member payable to Grand Lodge were increased to
$9.00. Members were asked to impress on their lodges to be prepared as the per
capita tax may have to be raised to maintain the Freemasons' Home of Nova
Scotia which houses 56 guests.
PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND - 1986
Grand Master - M.W.Bro. Major E. Reid

The Grand Master was able to make an official visit to all lodges with
excellent support of Grand Lodge Officers. He recorded the passing of P.G.M.
Rev. Waldron A. MacQuarrie (G.M. 1947) and P.G.M. Harold L. Palmer (G.M.
1965). A special communication was held on June 14 for the purpose of
dedicating the new Summerside Masonic Temple. At the Remembrance Day
service held at the Charlottetown Cenotaph, the Grand Master placed a wreath
on behalf of Grand Lodge. He also was invited to be in the receiving line with the
Worshipful Masters for the New Year's Levee.
The Grand Secretary reported that the "COMELY" program (Calling on
Masons who are living outside their own Jurisdiction) is slowly gaining
momentum. From the Conference of Grand and District Grand Lodges of
Canada we learn that the highlight this year was an overture made by the Church
of Rome to conduct dialogue with the masonic order to ease tension between the
Catholic Church and masons.
The Board of General Purposes met the minimum number of four times. The
first meeting approved the Grand Master's recommendations for appointed
officers, special committees, as well as the list of visitation dates and speakers.
The second meeting dealt with a review of visitations, ritual examination, and the
Grand Master's Conference in Winnipeg. The third meeting addressed the
conferences attended including the Conference of Grand Masters of North
America in Calgary. The last meeting dealt with details and preparations for the
Annual Communication.
From the Grand Historian. "If Masonry is to be successful, it requires a
combination of the wisdom which comes with age and the enthusiasm of youth
FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 225
— the regularity of performance and the innovativeness of change — the lessons
learned from failure and the courage to pursue new directions. There is no need
to redesign and restyle the tenets of Freemasonry, they are universally sound.
However, we must rethink the manner in which we present Masonry to the
uninitiated. For too many years, we have distorted the secrets of Masonry. The
time is now when we must make the world at large aware of Masonry, and its
teachings."
With a view of examining for possible adoption and use in this jurisdiction,
permission was granted for the D.G.M. and Grand Lecturer, to prefer the E.A.
degree on a profane at the 1987 Communication, using the British Columbia
"Ancient" Work.

Being a bilingual jurisdiction, the Grand Master addressed the brethren
whose mother tongue is French,
"Je suis tres content de voir aussi beaucoup de mes freres de langue
francaise. Vous representez nos esperances et nos aspirations pour
l'avenir, parce que votre presence dans la franc - maconniere donne
l'example au monde entier de la facon plus grand harmonic
Travaillez a maintenir votre fiertie, votre dignite et surout votre en-
thusiasm" — an example to all the world by working in harmony.
The Grand Master explained to all present that Grand Lodge consists of
Masters, Wardens and Past Masters of each lodge in the jurisdiction and
therefore the voice of Grand Lodge is nothing else than the collective voice of
themselves as expressed through each representative, and "you are one."
The Committee on the Grand Master's address did not support the Grand
Master's recommendation for the establishment of a "Communications
Committee" which would be responsible for specific communications not only
within the Craft but with the profane. It was felt that interviews with the media
should continue to be the responsibility of the Grand Master or his delegate. The
creation of a new office of Grand Standard Bearer, responsible for maintaining
and displaying the Grand Lodge Standard at appropriate occasions, was
approved.
The Charities Committee of the Masonic Foundation of Quebec has
developed a coloured video presentation and information pamphlet to promote
its charitable activities. The Masonic Board of Relief renders invaluable service to
sojourners in this jurisdiction. This Board continues to handle requests received
from the "Comely" program.
226 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA
Each of the two new lodges instituted this year has significant meaning. The
Lodge Lorraine U.D. in Aylmer brings to eight, the number of francophone
lodges in Quebec. Many in the Quebec City region are becoming bilingual and
are working in the two languages. The regular use of French in some lodges has
stimulated an upswing in attendance, a renewed interest in Freemasonry and a
majority of francophone candidates. The Temple Daylight Lodge U.D. meeting
in the Montreal Memorial Temple is the first of its kind in Quebec. The object of
this lodge is to provide masonic activity for masons who have retired and who no
longer feel disposed to journey out after dark. It will also be for those brethren
whose working careers precluded active participation in lodge activities, as well as
for those who may work night shifts.
Appraised value of the Temple properties was established at $7.5 M. Visitors
from all parts of the world have signed the register of this beautiful Masonic
Memorial Temple. All regular masons are given a short tour. Unfortunately, an
increased number of visits from irregular masons, many of whom are not aware
of the difference between regular and irregular masonry has necessitated an
explanation to those uninformed of the basic requirements for the regularity of
Masonic Grand Lodges.
The distinguishing characteristics of active lodges are:
1) Capable leaders who exude confidence.
2) A sense of pride, decorum and tradition.
3) Friendly spirit - brotherly love amongst members - festive board.
4) Varied, interesting programs which start on time (and end at time planned,
ed.).
5) Involvement of brethren - more jobs more people
6) Concern and involvement in masonic charity/benevolence.
From the Grand Secretary's report we learn that Father Irenee Beaubien has
reached a unique status whereby he represented the Grand Lodge of Quebec and
the Archdiocese of Montreal at the international gathering of learned Masons
and learned Clerics of the Church of Rome held in Paris. France.
SASKATCHEWAN - 1987
Grand Master - M.W. Bro. Orvil E. Mything
146 Lodges 5 Amalgamations Membership 9,575
22 District Deputy Grand Masters
From the Grand Master's Address:
"I performed Amalgamations in five areas. To me this is not a catastrophe.
Ten per cent of our eligible adults in Saskatchewan are Masons . A community
with 500 people may have about 50 Masons. When that figure of 500 drops to 50
people, then Masonry in the district drops accordingly. So Amalgamation is the
answer. "..." Since we are experiencing a decline in our membership and realizing
that youth is our lifeblood, I suggest that since boys becoming members of
FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 227
Demolay and girls becoming members of Job's Daughters have ties with the
masonic family, perhaps we might encourage our lodge Youth Committees to be
more supportive of youth in general and these two groups in particular."
The Board of Trustees of Benevolent Funds has been receiving requests from
lodges for assistance in community projects. A motion allowing the Board to use
a portion of the unused earnings from the Benevolent Interest Fund on a dollar to
dollar matching basis for Special Masonic advancement purposes will be
presented next year.
With a sense of reawakening masonic pride, the Chairman of the Condition
of Masonry quoted from Bacon's essay "Of Innovations"
"He that will not apply new remedies must expect new evils, for time
is the greatest innovator; and if time of course alters things to the
worse, and wisdom and counsel shall not alter them to the better.
• what shall be the end?"
The condition of Masonry for all lodges as well as the lodge's future
prospects are rated by the District Deputy on a scale of Excellent, Good, Fair and
Poor. The level of attendance is felt to be reflective of the level of interesting
stimulating activities in the lodge. Better planning of the masonic year and more
informative messages in the summons help to improve attendance. We have been
enjoined to be happy. Lodges attuned to the need for an increase in social
intercourse among the Brethren through fish fries, wild game meals, barbeques,
golf, curling, bus trips, etc. are recording higher levels of attendance and an
increased spirit of Brotherhood.
Per capita dues were increased by $1.50 to $13.50 annually. The Grand Secre-
tary was reappointed to serve as the Grand Lodge Librarian. Grand Lodge
approved a motion regulating Lodges of Research: to conduct research on Free-
masonry; work in the established Saskatchewan Work; not to confer any of the
three craft degrees; membership must be a Master Mason in good standing in a
lodge under the Grand Lodge of Saskatchewan; Master Masons from any Lodge
recognized by the Grand Lodge of Saskatchewan may be subscribing members.
'In recognition of eminence, ability and service rendered' the rank of Honor-
ary Past Grand Master was conferred on M.W.Bro. A. Lou Copeland.

22S GRAND LODGE OF CANADA
The Prestonian Lecturer for 1986 was R.W.Bro. Professor Wallace McLeod.
first Canadian P.M. of Quatuor Coronati Lodge No. 2076. who gave the three
official lectures to Saint Paul's Lodge No. 374 Montreal, Quatuor Coronati Lodge
No. 2076 London and Dorset Masters Lodge No. 3366 Dorchester, and fourteen
additional presentations. R.W.Bro. McLeod is our (Grand Lodge of Canada in
the Province of Ontario) Grand Representative for India and served our Grand
Lodge in several capacities during his ten years a member of the Board of
General Purposes. We congratulate him on this distinguished honour.
Following the request of the Grand Master, the Board reviewed the penalties
of the obligations, and while preserving the familiar time-honoured wording,
determined it would be in the interests of the Craft that they should be removed
from the obligations altogether and included in some other part of the ritual. The
comprehensive rationale for such a change noted that present day laws and
circumstances have both changed considerably from the laws and circumstances
of 250 years ago. Are the penalties really meant or not in such a serious matter as
an obligation? Since they cannot be or never could have been enforced, this must
throw doubt on whether the obligation is binding so far as the other important
matters it contains are concerned. The oath does not require a physical penalty to
make it binding; it stands in its own right being taken in the presence of the
G.A.O.TU. The physical penalties seem to have been introduced in their present
position from about 1730 and thus are not a landmark of the Order. Grand Lodge
has undoubted power to give directions on matters of ritual, and has done so in
the past. After extensive consultations with Ritual Associations and numerous
demonstrations, the Board proposed that such alterations should involve as little
change as possible, with no interference with the Landmarks.
After objective, dispassionate, dignified debate, 'a model of propriety." the
resolution that "all references to physical penalties be omitted from the
obligations taken by candidates in the three degrees and by a Master Elect at his
installation but retained elsewhere in the respective ceremonies" was proclaimed
by a very substantial majority.
In March, M.W.Bro. H.R.H. the Duke of Kent was re-elected Grand Master
for his twenty first term. In his installation address he commented how delighted
he was to learn that in just nine months, only 78 of the more than 1600 London
lodges had not yet implemented the new obligations. In keeping with improved
public relations, a video "The Freemasons" is being developed. (Now available
from our G.L.Library).
A new permanent exhibition in Freemasons' Hall on the history of English
Freemasonry was officially opened by the Grand Master on July 4. 1986. designed
for the non-masonic public. It provides a simple historical account of
Freemasonry 's development as part of the country's society in five paris: early
Freemasonry, early Grand Lodges, the Union, post-union consolidation and
modern Freemasonry. This provides interested inquirers with all the information
about Freemasonry in general without disclosing information which is held in
private.
FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 229
The triennial report of the Grand Lodge Library and Museum noted over
50.000 visitors had registered during that period.
M.W.Bro. A. Lou Copeland our Grand Master was one of a great number of
distinguished Masons from all parts of the world to be recognized at the
September Quarterly Communication.
The 1986 Methodist conference report on Freemasonry made it clear that it
does not intend to imply that membership in Freemasonry is incompatible with
membership in the Methodist Church.
The Council of the Grand Charity granted £250.000 over the next five years
in favour of the Mental Health Foundation towards alleviating one of the major
problems of to-day - Drug Abuse.
Brethren about to visit lodges overseas which are not recognized by the
United Grand Lodge of England were cautioned by the Grand Master. It is part
of one's Masonic duty not to associate masonically with members of
unrecognized constitutions, and if such should occur, one should tactfully
withdraw even if the visit had been formally arranged. To avoid potential
embarrassment to hosts, brethren should first check with the Grand Secretary's
office to determine that there is regular Freemasonry in the country concerned.
(In Ontario such list is published annually and is placed in the front of each
lodge's register at the Tyler's station) Brethren were also reminded of the masonic
convention that communications between Grand Lodges must be conducted by
Grand Secretaries.

Considerable progress was made in the sphere of Masonic Charities during
1986. The introduction of the offices of Grand Almoner. Provincial Grand
Almoner and Almoner were approved by Grand Lodge with duties to include
comforting the aged and unfortunate and their dependents. The Almoner must
"seek out the needy, visit the sick, administer to, and, if possible anticipate their
requirements, remembering always that in his particular sphere of activities, he
can bring joy and comfort to those in need." The jewel of the Almoner is a scrip-
purse upon which is a heart. Grand Lodge also recommended that the Steward of
Charities be an active (young) Mason who can actively promote a high level of
charitable donations; and the Almoner be an experienced Mason who can
actively visit and maintain contact with members, widows and children, who may
need assistance.
£250 of the 1985 St. John's Day Charity Collection was sent to aid the victims
of volcanic eruptions in Colombia via the Grand Lodge of Colombia, while £250
of the 1986 Collection went to the Grand Lodge Cuscatlan of El Salvador whose
Masonic Temple was destroyed by an earthquake last year.
230 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA
The Grand Master with the concurrence of the Board of General Purposes
introduced the new "Ten year rule" which will prevent anyone holding the office
of Provincial Grand Master for more than ten years, "not a major innovation but
one of some significance." "At our initiation we were advised that our family
responsibilities must come first. This innovation might prove some
encouragement to younger brethren whose feet are at the bottom rung of the
ladder of promotion."
The Assistant Grand Master visited Rome to renew ties with the Grand
Orient of Italy after the traumatic experiences that have occurred there in the past
few years. The Grand Secretary attended the 200th anniversary of the Grand
Lodge of Pennsylvania where, in his address he recalled that when Ball's Bridge
was rebuilt in Limerick in 1930, a brass square was recovered from the
foundations on which was engraved "I will strive to Live with Love and Care,
Upon Ye Level By Ye Square. 1507" - "Thus we are therefore within sight of the

Provincial Grand Master for Pennsylvania in 1735, probably did more than any
other to establish Freemasonry in America and whose reprint of Anderson's
Constitutions was the first, and is the rarest, masonic book in America.
"Freemasonry has waxed and waned, been popular and unpopular, been
promoted and persecuted, but has survived. Freemasonry made errors such as the
political intrigues and anti-clerical activities of some European Grand Lodges in
the 18th and 19th Centuries, but to-day I believe that regular Freemasonry is back
on its correct course worldwide, endeavoring to create in Anderson's words 'a
bond of union amongst those who would otherwise have remained at a perpetual
distance' - a brotherhood of man under a fatherhood of God."

The highlight of Scottish Freemasonry was the Celebrations to
commemorate the founding of the Grand Lodge of Scotland in 1736. held from
the 17th to 21st September 1986. Brethren from lodges throughout the world
gathered in Edinburgh to take part in the programme of events, many of which
were arranged so that the ladies could also join in the celebrations. On September
17, some 600 Brethren and their ladies attended a reception in Freemasons' Hall
hosted by the Grand Master and his wife, which was followed by a special
welcoming get-together for the forty Grand Masters including M.W.Bro. A. Lou
Copeland and his wife Margaret.

H.R.H. the Duke of Kent. G.M. of the Grand Lodge of England in his
address at the re-dedication service, noted that he represented the founder
member of one of the world's most exclusive associations, that of Grand Lodges
which have achieved 250 years continuous working and welcomed Scotland as
the newest member to join England and Ireland. He expressed his delight to see
so many Grand Masters and brethren, who owe their existence to the three
originals, come together from all over the world to join in congratulations to the
Grand Lodge of Scotland on reaching this notable milestone in history.
While 2,500 brethren were attending the Re-dedication Ceremony and
Anniversary Banquet in the Exhibition Hall of the Royal Highland and
Agricultural Society. 400 ladies dined together at the Sheraton Hotel followed by
entertainment including a fashion show of Scottish woolen fabrics.
In responding to the toast to the Grand Lodge by M.W. Bro. Lord Cornwallis.
Provincial Grand Master. United Grand Lodge of England, the Grand Master
noted some of the achievements during the past 250 years which included some
1.100 lodges scattered literally all over the world. The G.L. of Scotland was a
founder member of G.L. of Pennsylvania which is celebrating its 200th
Anniversary and the G.L. of India which is celebrating its Silver Jubilee. The
number of Initiates last year increased 5%. "I appreciate that many of our
brethren like to keep their Freemasonry to themselves, but in this era of
investigative journalism and instant television replays, we must keep up with the
times and spell out clearly our aims and objectives and not be burdened with the
tag of being a secret society which we are not."
Reflecting that the uniqueness of the Craft as no other organization in the
world where so many men of such widely differing circumstances can so happily
come together as equals, the Grand Master quoted one verse of Kipling's poem
"Banquet Night" as singularly appropriate for the Anniversary Dinner.
'Once in so often.' King Solomon said,
watching his quarrymen drill the stone.
'We will club our garlic and wine and bread
and banquet together beneath my throne,
and all the brethren shall come to that mess
as fellow-craftsmen — no more and no less.'
The Grand Master of Ireland, responding to the Toast to the Visitors,
commented that Freemasonry today is not without its critics. "At present we (G.L.
Ireland) ignore our critics in the belief that if we conduct our affairs decently and
remain within the law we have nothing to fear or lose and without necessarily
changing our policy, if in the future we felt we ought to modify it, I feel sure that
we would derive great benefit from the example and possibly advice of our sister
Constitutions."
Included with the Anniversary Celebrations was a telegram dispatched by
the Grand Master Mason to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth at Buckingham Palace
extending 'loyal greetings and warmest felicitations'. The following reply from

The Grand Master had to rule on a situation where a lodge was suspending
some of its life members for non-payment of dues. In review, it was found that in
1981 the lodge voted to abolish all life memberships and the change was
approved by the Grand Lodge By-laws Committee. His decision, after talking
with the Jurisprudence and By-laws Committees, was that life memberships
cannot be taken from a brother and that all life members suspended for non-
payment of dues be immediately reinstated. Those deceased brethren who were
life members prior to their death to have their names replaced on the roll as
having been in good standing at time of death. A copy of each letter sent to each
life member was filed with the Grand Secretary's office.

1987 marks the first time that this Grand Lodge has sponsored a float in the
Tournament of Roses Parade. The principal purpose for this float is to call
attention to the signing of the American Constitution in 1787, that greatest
document of personal freedom ever penned by the hand of man. Designed to
represent "Liberty, Peace and Equality," six foreign national flags are symbolic of
the fact that the U.S. Constitution served as a model for all fifty States, Canada,

Committee on Policy and General Purposes recommended a "No" vote for
reasons that there is a fine Masonic education program currently operating and
there are ample opportunities to attend a Grand Lodge session at the many
ceremonials such as cornerstones, dedications and lodge constitutions conducted
throughout the State regularly. The Committee on Finance also recommended a
'NO' vote because of the increased costs and the additional per capita tax
assessed to individual lodges.

To Indians, who were and are basically a deeply religious people, the concept
of the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man came by way of
reiteration of something in which they had always believed and still believe. Since
FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 235
religion to an Indian is something very personal and individual, the principles of
Freemasonry that religion and politics are not to be mixed up with the Craft,
appealed as a principle which had meaning and significance.
When India became politically independent in 1947, and then became a
Republic in 1950, serious thinking started among Indian Masons about the
appropriateness of Indian Freemasonry having its own sovereign Grand Lodge.
Since most of the lodges established throughout India were developed under the
Grand Lodges of England, Ireland and Scotland, it was logical that approaches
be made to those bodies to consider the desirability and feasibility of constituting
a sovereign Grand Lodge of India.
In November 1961, 145 Lodges became the foundation lodges of the Grand
Lodge of India in New Delhi, consecrated by the Grand Master Mason of
Scotland, constituted by the Deputy Grand Master of Ireland with the first Grand
Master installed by the Deputy Grand Master of England. Those lodges which
had not opted for the Grand Lodge of India were allowed to continue under the
charters given to them by their respective Grand Lodges. It was agreed that the
parent Grand Lodges would no longer warrant any new lodges in the territory of
the Republic of India, which was now defined as the Masonic Jurisdiction of the
Grand Lodge of India.
Today there are 270 lodges which except for one, conduct the ceremonies in
English. Prior to constitution. Freemasonry was by and large the preserve of the
more affluent, the aristocracy, senior officials of the government and senior
executives of the private sector. During the past 25 years, true to the principles
and tenets of the Craft, Freemasonry in India has become more broad based.
Good men and true from all spheres of life and diverse strata of society have
entered its portals.
To assist in the government of the Craft, four Regional Grand Lodges were
immediately constituted: Northern India, Eastern India, Western India and
Southern India. The characteristic of a Freemason's heart, charity, has been
extensively practiced by Indian Freemasons. The Eastern region maintains a
Charitable Masonic Poly-Clinic in Calcutta in different disciplines of medicine
and health. In the Western sector a Welfare and Relief Fund assists in children's
education, feeding the poor and has donated generously to the National Society
of the Handicapped. In the Northern region, the prestigious Poly-Clinic at New
Delhi, named after one of the founders of the Grand Lodge of India, provides
assessments and investigation as well as having an X-ray unit in a mini hospital
setting. Lodges regularly support Eye Relief Camps. In Southern India the
Coimbatore Masonic Charity Trust and the Madras Medical Relief Centre as
well as the Children's Clinic work with treating poor children free of cost. Mobile
vans are operating to give medical relief to the rural masses. The Grand Lodge
Fund of Benevolence has donated generously toward relief of the victims of the
infamous Bhopal tragedy.
Masonic knowledge and awareness has certainly been enhanced through the
Annual Masonic Essay Competition inaugurated in 1976. One essay on "An Ideal
Lodge" highlights one such lodge as:
236 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA
— exercising great care in examining the qualifications of candidates for
initiation
— not restricting itself to the formality of raising candidates, but inducing
its brethren to take greater interest in the deeper meaning of masonic rit-
ual
— encouraging all the brethren, particularly the new ones, to play an active
role in its workings and guiding them to further advancement.
— instructing brethren to be aware of their duties to the Craft
— instilling in the members the importance of regular attendance at lodge
meetings and the significance of the summons.
— including the families of brethren in some of its activities
— emphasizing the grand principle of relief
— providing good leadership
The ideals and principles of Freemasonry must be expounded and made
intelligible to the rank and file. Every brother should be so permeated by the
spirit and teaching of Freemasonry as to be capable of giving an intelligent
reason as to why he is a Freemason. Thus Freemasonry demands that an ideal
lodge should fulfill a threefold task: to preserve the ideal; to transmit its
principles, its convictions, its concerns; and to support every endeavour which
springs and enhances those principles, convictions and concerns, so that the
fraternity is ready to play its part and play it well in the game of life.
— Freemasonry is elementally and essentially a philosophy of self improvement —

Reviewing the condition of the Fraternity, passing upon the acts of the duly
elected officers, approving or rejecting proposed legislation, electing new officers
and investing them with the authority of leadership are the purposes why this
Grand Lodge meets annually.
The Committee on Jurisprudence approved the amended resolution that no
action of a Grand Master taken during his term or incorporated in his message to
the Grand Lodge can be and become Masonic law unless and until the action or
statements involved have been referred to a committee of the Grand Lodge and
reported to the floor of the Grand Lodge in annual session for its approval,
amendment or rejection. All legal actions taken by a Grand Master not so
referred shall expire upon the investment of his successor. This does not ratify or
approve any illegal action or conduct of a Grand Master.
The Grand Master characterized the wearing of masonic emblems by non-
members as deceit and false pretense. Grand Lodge adopted legislation that
FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 237
would make it a Masonic offense for a suspended, expelled or demitted Mason to
wear Masonic jewelry, while under that sentence or condition.
The heights of great men reached and kept
Were not attained by sudden flight.
But they, while their companions slept
Were toiling upward in the night.
-Longfellow-
With this poem, the Grand Master concluded that if we are going to reach
greater heights, the primary focus must be concentrated upon the development of
future leaders. "We must promote the growth of those who have the visions of
those heights, have the ability to communicate those visions to others and have
the persistence to make those visions become realities."
This Grand Lodge has a Board of Publications which last year reviewed over
1.000 publications which were distributed to the members within the jurisdiction.
Minor errors in the publications were called to the attention of the publishing
body and these were corrected promptly. Any lodge or appendant body which
may wish to start a publication, must first secure the permission of the Grand
Master, through this Board of Publications, who are most happy to assist.
With the acceptance of a Statement of Purpose, the task of physically
creating a Grand Lodge Library and Museum has now begun.
In the memorial to M.W.Bro. Theo Jena were lines taken from his first
message as Grand Master in 1958
"Why go to Lodge?"
First: My Lodge provides me with a restful, quiet, dignified atmosphere into
which I can retire to relax, lay aside my everyday problems and for a while
enjoy the association and fellowship of like-minded men.
Second: My Lodge offers me the opportunity to divert my mind and
conscience of the superfluities of life.
Third: My Lodge offers me a full course of moral instruction which I can
never completely absorb. It instructs me in those moral principles which, if
applied, will make me a better man.
Fourth: My Lodge points out to me that I must discipline my actions; must
regulate my life and conduct by the four Cardinal Virtues of Temperance,
Fortitude. Prudence and Justice, and that I. above all else, must obey the
will of the Great Architect of the Universe, who doeth all things as seem to
Him best.

Reflecting on the circumstances which lead to nine consolidations the
Grand Master unreservedly stated "Neither conditions nor circumstances kill
Masonic lodges - Masons kill Masonic lodges - uncaring, apathetic masons." To
make his point he related a story of a lodge in North Dakota that several years
ago petitioned the Grand Lodge for permission to disband. Although warned that
the lodge was dead, the Grand Master decided to visit to verify the fact. He soon
discovered that the lodge was indeed dead. NO PLANNING - NO TOIL - NO
ENCOURAGEMENT - NOT ONE SPARK OF LIFE. So the Grand Master
informed the lodge that they were, indeed dead, and he proposed to carry out the
last rites. The plans were made. Into the room was brought a coffin. The time
arrived for the last rites. The lodge room was crowded as it hadn't been for years.
The Grand Master carried out the burial services. Then, as a last token of respect,
he asked all present to file past the coffin. As they did so, they received a shock.
The bottom of the coffin was not wood. It was glass. It was a mirror. As each
looked into the coffin of the dead lodge, he saw HIS OWN FACE. The lodge is
people, you and me. When those people stop caring - the lodge will die.
Some 170 tours were conducted through the Grand Lodge Library, with a
total of 1,150 visitors registered this year. 414 patrons used the Library resources
for research on various topics. Over 700 books were checked out including 137
reels of microfilm. There were 1 10 new books added to the collection. A clipping
Bureau and Index Rerun are maintained as important sources for masonic
research.
Seven Emergent Communications were held for the purpose of laying
cornerstones, two of which were for public school buildings. Fifty scholarships of
$500 each were presented to public school seniors from the Masonic Scholarship
Endowment Fund.
The Speakers' Bureau continues to play an important part of lodge programs
in Iowa. The success of this free service is giving enough lead time to arrange
speaker scheduling.
The month of April was designated Masonic Education Month for the fourth
successive year. All lodges received a special letter with supportive educational
material to assist the lodge planning and programming. The Grand Master felt
that "Masonic Light" might be a more acceptable term to new members than
Masonic Education, and that it may cause them to pursue further research and
study.

The membership of this jurisdiction has primarily been from members of the
United States Security Forces. As mission requirements of Security Forces were
reduced over the years, and bases closed, there has been a corresponding
reduction in masonic membership. Coupled with this radical reduction, is the
continuing loss of active members through rotations and/or loss of interest. In
many instances a newly raised Master Mason departs Japan before he has
witnessed the raising of another brother.
82 brethren from some 40 different jurisdictions signed the register at the
New Masonic Centre. Community and Public Relations received high priority
from the Grand Master. The Kunitachi Masonic Building Association sponsored
the Handicapped Olympics, another vital link for community awareness.
Four recommendations by the Grand Master were accepted.
1. That a study on the installation of a Masonic emblem on the roof of
the New Masonic Centre of such sufficient size to attract prospective
visitors in full view of passer-bys be conducted.
2. That arrangements be made to video tape masonic events such as the
Annual Children's Festival, the Handicapped Olympics. Masonic speakers
etc., for viewing by members and prospective Masons.
3. That funds be budgeted for engaging a reliable Public Relations firm
to spread the truth about Masonry and enhance the image of Freemasonry
in Japan.
4. That the Masonic information book be published in the Japanese
language.
Grand Lodge Officers are elected on an annual basis. Over the years, other
options have proposed extending that term, especially the Grand Master's. Some
contemplated a two-year term, some a four-year term, and one also added the
benefit of wealth and social standing. The Grand Master fully agreed provided
the incumbent is able to commit himself totally, that is not employed and having
sufficient income to devote the majority of his time to Masonic functions.
However he concluded, "Before we can expect this type of service, we have to have
sufficient members with these qualifications."
"U.S. Based" lodges were directed to develop long range plans for relocating
off the Base and to bring more Japanese members into the fraternity. By utilizing
the Japanese ritual they should become bilingual in all aspects of lodge
management and ritual.

Recruitment. Retention and Reinstatement were the three R's upon which

Who are the persons involved in the relationships between the Church and
the Lodge?, is the first of three questions each candidate for Freemasonry should
answer in his heart before being made a mason suggests the Committee of
Church-Lodge Relations. What is the purpose of the Lodge for its members - in
the mortal life, and in eternal life?, and are members of a lodge able to become
members of the Church?, should also be addressed.
Through the hard work of the Masonic Foundation, the Kansas Masonic
All-State High School Band is sponsored by 149 Lodges or Masonic

beneficiary of the Foundation. The Foundation offers assistance in estate
planning to reduce exposure to taxation, and increased giving in the future to
charities of the mason's choice.

schools across the state. 131 girls and 98 boys, each winners of local lodge contests
participated in the topic "Academics vs. Athletics" for the two first place awards
of $1,000 each. The 1987 topic will be "Sex Education In the Public Schools?"

"After the procedure for obtaining membership in a Masonic Lodge is
explained, there can be no objection to his being reminded once that the
approach was made." The potential candidate should then be left to make his
own decision, and come of his own free will and accord.

The Grand Master recommended that the per capita tax be increased from
$3.50 to $5.50. in order to meet the increased cost for computerization, public
relations and promotion. A revised amendment increasing the levee to $4.50 was
approved. He also recommended the acceptance of dual membership within the
jurisdiction to allow members who reside many miles from their home lodge and
who are reluctant to give up that membership, to be active in a lodge where they
reside.
"Ritual is the foundation upon which we teach the principles, philosophy
and symbolism of masonry. If we teach our new Master Masons that being a
Mason in the fullest and complete sense is to exemplify in one's dealings with all
mankind those virtues of charity, of kindness, of tolerance which the ritual so
forcefully inculcates by precept and by symbol, then we are in the proud position
of being Master Masons." submits the Grand Lecturer.
The Grand Secretary' listed the papers presented at the Conference of Grand
Masters held in Calgary: Drug and Alcohol Abuse Among Children, the Right
Answer to the Wrong Problem. Loss of Membership. Masonic Charities. The
Present Insurance Crisis - Some Causes and Possible Solutions. Working
Relationship Between Jurisdictions. He has compiled an alphabetical listing of
all the papers presented at such conferences since 1928 and urges lodges to use
this material for lodge programs and study. Over 1000 items have been compiled
and indexed from clippings gathered from a variety of sources, as a basis for short
talks at lodge meetings. 500 P.M.s presently holding lodge office because of line
dropouts are too numerous to ignore. Being absent from our family every night at
masonic related meetings etc. is certainly not the intent of Masonry. Involvement
through a Team Concept program that reassigns many extra duties to non
officers is strongly advised.
The Advanced Masonic Education program is exploring the possibility of
instituting a reading correspondence course, which would also enhance the
Grand Lodge Library program. New additions to the video collection were - The
Quiet Fraternity; Welcome to the Craft; The Accepted Candidate; Forces of
Opposition; The Freemasons, Who Are They?; Masons In Your Home; and The
Mystic Tie.
Suggestions by the District Deputies to improve the condition of the
fraternity include the setting up of a low interest revolving loan fund so that small

lodges could make necessary repairs without paying high interest rates: a
voluntary lodge officer training program with a certificate of proficiency for
successful completion; "Creative Meetings" be more widely used to stimulate
greater attendance; more semi-public activities to help enlighten the public about
Masonry and Masonic fellowship.
The Master of each lodge must appoint, according to Grand Lodge
regulation, a Lodge Historian to prepare the lodge history annually. It is
submitted to the Committee on the History of Grand Lodge for the annual

Of the 13 submissions to the Committee on Grievances and Appeals, 10 were

The ceremony of installation of the Grand Master held in the Town Hall of
Sydney was electric with choral music, trumpet fanfares and regalia bearers.
From his address — "Take care of health, take care of wife and family, take care of
profession, take care of your Church, and if this is not done brethren, the message
of Freemasonry has not been absorbed and what can we expect to find in Free-
masonry? In a nutshell we can find the sanctity of family life, friendship, laughter,
responsibility and an understanding of the needs of others who have fallen upon
misfortune." His theme, "Live as a Freemason - Give Leadership by Example."
The following poem illustrates a Freemason's task to build a better world:
"Glance backwards now my friend
but do not look too long;
The past is gone the future waits

may be brighter than you dream today."
"The primary function of a lodge is to train its members to an understanding
of the truths contained in its rituals and ceremonies; to develop benevolent men;
to cultivate the social virtues and propagate knowledge of the Arts."

290 people attended the District No. 65 Masonic Charity Bowls Days where
$1,900 was raised for local charities. For 63 years the Masonic Youth Welfare
Fund has been dedicated to help needy youth. The fund also provides each boy or
girl a father image who is there to counsel and guide them.
The Masonic Temples Board of Grand Lodge created 25 years ago has been
most active in encouraging and assisting masonic property owners to improve the
image of Freemasonry by upgrading and continued property maintenance. Loans
totalling $129,450 were granted for a variety of purposes from new Temple
building to minor maintenance on existing properties. A booklet "Maintenance
of Masonic Buildings" was distributed to all masonic property owners, which will
assist owners to improve the conditions of their properties and to plan their
activities according to sound administration principles. Permission was granted
for brethren to wear a tailored blazer when attending civic functions, lodge
picnics and daylight social functions. Worn with grey slacks and a masonic tie.
the "Bowler's Blue" blazer has a gold square and compasses embossed on the
pocket with the name of the lodge underneath.
Members dues payable to Grand Lodge were increased to $13.40 per year,
including $1.00 for Centenary projects. The Centenary Celebrations logo for 1988
was selected from some 82 entries. Three daylight lodges were consecrated.
Six brethren were suspended for having failed to disassociate themselves
from an irregular styled body of Mark Master Masons. Summoned to appear
before the Board of General Purposes to show cause why they should not be
found guilty of unmasonic conduct consequent upon their continued association
with said body, not one brother appeared.

The Widows Program was completely revamped with a most attractive pin
for presentation along with an identification card designed for the widow to carry.
Guidelines were established so that a Master could establish a good rapport with
the widow from the time the brother was deceased. One of the positive benefits of
the program is the reaction of these ladies to being welcomed as part of the
Masonic family. Some have indicated that they would like to organize and do
something for the fraternity. Several have made very generous contributions to
the Brotherhood Fund for charitable purposes.
Computerization of the accounting department and the Registry will be com-
pleted by year end. Four Regional Seminars dealt with three main topics: 1. Relat-

Several suggestions for improvement of the Ritual including elimination of
the penalties of the degrees from the obligation and including such information
in the form of an explanation after the conclusion of the degree, were forwarded
to the Chairman of the Custodians of the Work for their review.
Suggestions for an efficient well run Grand Lodge office performing the nec-
essary Craft functions the brethren desire are costly and include:
• A professional public relations firm to work with the media promoting
our Masonic image
• A new explanatory pamphlet telling of Masonic accomplishments
• More Grand Lodge flyers regarding coming events
• A new handbook outlining Masonic Services available to members
• Funds, available for loans to lodges to maintain or improve temples.
• Expansion of educational programs of Library. Museum and the
'Empire State Masons'.
• Increased support of Youth programs, such as school centers.
• Computerized records for individual lodges
• Increased staff to provide the services.
To accomplish such, a resolution was passed increasing the per capita dues
by $5.00. bringing the total for each member of each lodge to $12.50. Grand
Master Singer stated that "Our Masonic Fraternity should remain the greatest
fraternity in existence today, to do so. we must have a vision of better leadership,
better communicating, better office procedures with modern technology, up to
date Registry reporting, and personnel at the Grand Lodge level who can be in a
position to assist the local lodges." Excellence has a price. He shared his personal
vision of the fraternity steeped in ancient Masonic tradition, abreast of a
competitive world making use of modern methods. "I believe that the best is yet to
come and that God is working His plan which includes each of us."
A Certificate of Incorporation was received from the Board of Regents of the
University of the State of New York for the Grand Lodge Library. This allows for
the Library and Museum to become a State institution, contributions to which
will be income tax deductible.
The man who led the raid on Tokyo. April 18. 1942. Bro. General James H.

Successful lodges use the 'Lodge System of Masonic Education". It is but one
ingredient for success in New York, because an educated mason is an interested
mason, and an interested mason is an active mason, and an active mason
generates new ideas and attracts new members.
This will be the 26th season for Camp Turk, the Masonic Youth Camp. 40
campers attend this outstanding camp program annually at a very modest price,
some sponsored by lodge scholarships. A slide program about the camp is
available to showcase 'Masonry In Action". From over 100 nominations received
FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 245
for the 'Grand Master's Award for Service to Youth'. 6 plaques were awarded.
Each lodge is strongly urged to have at least one project for and with youth each
year.
The Grand Secretary reported that during the past 30 years they have lost
more members than gained in the years of greatest growth. From 1919 to 1929
membership grew from 235 thousand to 346 thousand. 100.00 were lost during the
depression of the '30's. but from 1943 to 1956 growth from 242 thousand to 308
thousand was recorded. From 1956 to 1986 losses were 173 thousand of which
5.700 were last year. Austere budgets and frugality during the last thirty years have
not stemmed the loss of members. An increase in initiates and an increase in
affiliates is good news and the prospect of more in the future sheds a ray of
optimism on the 1987 horizon.
One of the diverse programs of the Committee on Communications is
Masonic Road Signs, which began to appear on New York highways over two
years ago. Over 100 baked enamel 30 inch road signs have been erected by lodges
and Districts across the State. Before ordering, local, municipal, county and state
codes governing highway signage should be reviewed carefully.
Nationwide, Masons raised nearly $2 million towards restoring the Statue of
Liberty, a worldwide symbol of freedom and opportunity. New York will be the
second largest masonic contributor with $310,000. behind California's $800.00
total. The brethren of North American Masonic bodies raised 3.3 percent of all
the funds needed for the restoration. The close tie between "Liberty Enlightening
the World" and Freemasonry has been called to the public attention.
In his address at the Masonic Home in Utica on St. John's Day, M.W.Robert
Singer recalled the words from an old German proverb as good advice for any
activity - "Learn from the Old, Instruct the Young, Consult the Wise, and Bear
with the Foolish". "Our response to those who would criticize what we stand for is
not to engage in public debate or name-calling, but rather to tell our story our
way."

A grant of $2,000 was awarded to Research Lodges as an aid to the work they
are doing in the dissemination of masonic knowledge. Participation in the grant
is dependent upon the submission of a report of the year's activities along with
the annual accounts to Grand Lodge.

Four Grand Master's Order of Service Awards, the highest recognition of
masonic service, were conferred this year. The Grand Master appointed 22
brethren to the Grand Lodge Roll of Honour for having consistently rendered
loyal and devoted service to the Craft. Recipients receive a distinguishing lapel
badge, a certificate of appointment and may henceforth use the letter R.H.' after
their name on all masonic occasions.
The New Zealand Masonic Chair of Geriatrics was established at the
university medical school to research the aging process. 124 Bursaries were
granted totalling $62,793. The total help given by the Board of Benevolence was
$470,571 from a capital fund of 5 million dollars. Lodges contributed annually to
this fund on an average of $4.30 per member with the high of $22 per member.
Capitation fees remained at $11 annually.
$100,000 was transferred to establish the Grand Lodge Building Fund to
encourage and assist the upgrading of lodge properties. In advancing money at
nominal interest rates, loans will bear at approximately half the present mortgage
rates. It is hoped that this fund will attract legacies, gifts and such monies from
Grand Lodge as surplus funds allow.

In his address, the Grand Master reflected upon the worsening of the
problems of loss of membership, loss of influence of the Fraternity and an apathy
from within the ranks that threatens to destroy from within. His twofold
resolution: The development of leadership within Ohio which can envision
changes and be innovative enough to convert those changes into actuality. The
trend of loss of influence can not be reversed unless the masons within the
fraternity understand the true purpose and goals of the Craft, and unless the non-
masonic public have a better understanding of Freemasonry. Those two premises
were the basis of his one year Masonic program which emphasized the Mason's
family through strengthening of the nuclear family, the youth who were
associated with masonic youth groups and concern for the youth within the com-
munity. He also focused upon upgrading the quality and delivery of the Masonic
education and counselling programs throughout the jurisdiction by developing a
job description expectancy.
The Exceptional Lodge Leadership Course, designed exclusively for Ohio
Freemasonry by the Leadership Development Institute of Oklahoma City has
taught 578 lodge leaders how to:
1. Take innovative action to respond to changing circumstances.
2. Established goals and gain commitment to achieve them.
3. Prioritize and take specific next step action.
4. Encourage the pursuit of excellence within the Lodge.
FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 247
5. Resolve Lodge problems before they become crises.
6. Communicate ideas and directives more effectively.
7. Accomplish more by employing effective time management techniques.
8. Use a team concept and build long lasting alliances.
9. Use coaching and reinforcement skills to improve member performance.
10. Build, use and sustain positive influence.
11. Awaken the spirit of Freemasonry in Ohio.
Past District Deputies were given the responsibility of familiarizing the
membership of the Ohio Masonic Handbook, a volume which answers all
administrative questions proposed by leaders and prospective leaders. This
management tool has proven to be effective in planning and administration.
As a result of the deliberations of the State of the Craft Committee, a public
relations firm was hired to develop a marketing program to make Masonry more
visible in Ohio. The program included a day-long training seminar in the
techniques of communicating with the news media. Numerous news releases
dispelling the secrets of Masonry and public service announcements for radio
and TV. have resulted in an increased visibility of Ohio Freemasonry. However
the true marketing efforts are those which are carried out personally by the
individual Mason. Each of us is someone's impression of a Mason. By living the
lives that we have learned to live as Masons, and by allowing those about us to
know that our lives have been influenced by our masonic teachings, we are
proclaiming to the non-mason the benefits of Freemasonry and Masonic
membership.
56 requirements from four different group categories constitute the basic
criteria upon which the Grand Master's Awards are granted. Particular attention
was paid to the development of family and community activities within the
lodges. Awarded to lodges because of the diligent efforts of all of the lodge
members, the respective Worshipful Master's name also appears on the Award
Certificate because he was the catalyst for the success of the program within his
lodge.
Posters were delivered to each lodge for posting in the anteroom. The posters
consisted of the figure of a man and attracted one's attention with the statement
"When you find a good man who'd make a good Mason, it's O.K. to say
Y.M.A.G.M." The Grand Master qualified this poster as for those men who would
make good Masons. "Is he living the life of a Mason, but uninformed about how
to join? Is he working with you? Worshiping with you? Is he your son? Why would
you not want to share the beauty of Masonry with him?"
The Grand Master spoke of the universality of the Craft as exemplified on
his being afforded honorary membership into Palestine Lodge #559 G.R.C. the
mother lodge of G.M. A. Lou Copeland.
G. M. Neumann commented upon the emotional appeal made to the Grand
Masters Conference in 1986 to endorse the establishment of a National Masonic
Foundation whose duty it would be to enter the field of chemical dependency and

drug abuse identification and intervention. As a medical doctor, he recognized
the epidemic of abuse of mind-altering drugs within society, particularly the
youth. However he stated his position - "It is not the purpose of Freemasonry to
enter into such engagements at a state level, certainly not at a National level: We
should care for the distressed at the lodge level and as established at the state level
- Masonic Homes and hospitals." Although proposed by well-meaning Masons.
he cautions against the possible misinterpretation of the motives should one enter
into such an undertaking, and consequently counselled his Grand Lodge to not
engage in such.
12 District Rap Sessions with the Grand Master, Grand Lodge Officers and
District Masons afforded the opportunity to sit together and discuss common
Masonic challenges. Through sharing, all were able to learn from each other, with
straightforwardness what had been most successful in programming, as well as
the concerns and local feelings. One of the 26 summarized items agreed that we
would gain if the most visible arm of Freemasonry, the Shrine, would use the
term. Shrine Mason, when publicizing its activities.
The International Masonic Day held at the Royal York, Toronto, on
September 27, 1986, recognizing 50 years of inter-jurisdictional visitations
between Ohio and Ontario was one of the highlights of the G.M.'s year. "We
received the kind of welcome and display of hospitality which only our Canadian
brethren could extend. They are well known for their graciousness. We glorified
at the conferral of the M.M. degree by the distinguished members of the R.C.M.P.
degree team."
The Grand Master's answer to Masonry and Religion is quite simple.
Freemasonry is a Fraternity; it should not be considered in a theological sense. It
is not a religion, nor a substitute. The obligations are sworn on or involve the
volume of the Sacred Law. They are undertakings to keep secret a Freemason's
means of recognition and to follow the principles of Freemasonry. The physical
penalties are simply symbolic. The commitment to follow the principles of
Freemasonry is deep, and entirely appropriate to this form of obligation.
Freemasonry lacks the basic elements of religion. It has no dogma or theology, it
offers no sacraments and it does not claim to lead to salvation, by works, secret
knowledge or any other means. (The secrets of Freemasonry are concerned with
modes of recognition, not with salvation.) Masons are taught to support the
church. Masons are taught to organize the universal moral sentiments of
mankind and to organize human disapproval of that which is immoral.
The creation of an officer entitled Development Director was a very strong
recommendation of the G.M. His duty would be to correlate, implement and
facilitate the Grand Master's program during any given year. Being free to travel
throughout the jurisdiction, he would assist lodges in developing programs as
well assisting faltering and failing lodges so identified by the G.M. and the
Advisory Committee. Through the use of regional meetings, programming
requirements and local contacts could be facilitated. Five- and ten-year long
range planning must replace segmental year plans.
FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 249
Redistribution of lodges, such that no D.D.G.M. would be responsible for
more than 10 Lodges, was another recommendation of the G.M. It was felt that
this would allow for the implementation of good management principles and
closer lodge contact. After twelve months of deliberation with respect to the
penalties of the obligations, the proposal of the Ritual Committee recommending
that the Ritual be left intact, was unanimously passed. The following is a paste-in
note to be placed in the front cover of all rituals of the Work.
"Symbolic Freemasonry has long adhered to many ancient symbol-
isms; among them are the penalties of the various obligations. You
are hereby advised that the only penalties imposed by our fraternity,
after being found guilty of a violation of Masonic Law are: 1) Repri-
mand; 2) Suspension; or 3) Expulsion. All other references to
penalties are symbolic in nature and not practiced by modern Free-
masonry."
A proposal to change the requirements of a petitioner, to be eighteen years of
age at the time his petition is read for the first time in a stated meeting of the
lodge, was received and referred for Committee consideration for the next annual
communication.

At 38 years old, this Grand Master is the youngest in North America during
his term of office. In 1974 he was elected a State Representative in the Oklahoma
Legislature where he served eight years. During his one year term as Grand Mas-
ter he presided at 15 Emergent Communications of Grand Lodge for the purpose
of Constituting. Consecrating and Dedicating 1 lodge. Cornerstone Ceremonies
for 10 lodges and Dedication Ceremonies for 6 lodges.
The Grand Master had to rule on a lodge where the W.M.. S.W. and J.W. had
been permanently suspended from office because of unmasonic conduct of elec-
tioneering prior to their election and a certain faction of the lodge had deter-
mined that they would use the ballot box to see that no petitions would be elected
into the lodge.
The Grand Master stated the most misunderstood word in Oklahoma
Masonry is solicitation. "It is certainly not a masonic offence to quietly without
pressure offer him information and assistance if he is interested. If we do less
than this we are denying access to the Fraternity to a majority of good men who
have an interest in and a high regard for Masonry but no idea of what it takes to
become a Mason. Our rule against solicitation prohibits us to T)eg or urge with
troublesome persistence', but does not prohibit us from initiating a conversation
to explain Masonry to men of good character."
250 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA
He feels that members today have a great reluctance toward change, a
reluctance so ingrained that it is virtually unmasonic to advocate or implement
change within the Fraternity. The irony is that the existence of speculative
Masonry was born in change, without which operative Masonry could never have
changed to speculative Masonry.
The annual Grand Master's Prayer Luncheon drew capacity crowds. All
profits are donated to masonic charity. Area Institutes organized by the Masonic
Lodge Education Committee were held at 6 locations to assist lodge officers in
effective administration of their lodges.
A voluntary Perpetual Membership Plan whereby an Oklahoma Mason may
pay a one-time fee to his lodge secretary was approved. The fee (not less than 15
times the annual dues) is placed via the Grand Secretary in a permanent endow-
ment fund whence the interest will support his constituent lodge and Grand
Lodge forever. It is voluntary; it offers possibilities to reduce suspensions and
demits; it should strengthen the future financial base of both his lodge and Grand
Lodge; it is easy to administer with computerization; there is no cost to the lodge;
it will be a lasting tribute and memorial in the brother's name to insure that
Masonry will exist in Oklahoma forever.

From the Grand Master's Address as he entered his third and last term - "I
ask each lodge to take careful stock of the situation for I feel that enthusiasm is
waning in some places. It is time for each lodge to examine their 'modus
operandi'. Are communications within the lodge good enough? Are you caring for
the new members? Are you caring for the older members who have difficulty
getting to lodge? Are you sharing Masonry with your wives? These and many
other aspects are necessary for a revival of interest. You owe it to the Craft, to your
lodge and yourselves, to use a little more motivation."
The Geriatric Medical Foundation of Queensland Ltd. was incorporated by

The Board of General Purposes consists of 12 elected Metropolitan
members, and 12 elected Country members. Other G.L. Committees have an
equitable balance between Metropolitan and Country members.
At each Quarterly Communication, applications for initiation first must be
approved by the Board of General Purposes. If permission is granted, then the
respective lodges ballot on their applicants. There were 558 residents living in
Freemasons Homes. 10 Bursaries of $750 were awarded to children of Masons.

SOUTH AFRICA - 1986

25th Anniversary - Silver Jubilee Year
138 Lodges Membership 7.000
Masonry was introduced into South Africa in 1772 under the auspices of the
Grand East of the Netherlands, which unobtrusively initiated the formation of
the Grand Lodge of Southern Africa in Cape Town in April 1961. Since its
inception with 87 supporting lodges, a total of 49 new lodges has since been added
including 3 during the past year. By common consent in 1981 the name was
changed to the Grand Lodge of South Africa, the same year that South Africa
became a Republic. Expansive growth in recent years has been especially
pronounced in the rural areas with their predominantly Afrikaans speaking
communities. This undoubtedly confirms the wisdom and correctness of the early
acknowledgement and encouragement of the use of the two official languages in
all labours and at all levels of this Grand Lodge. It also permits the use of any
recognized rituals in entirety, by any lodge presently under its jurisdiction or
which may wish to become associated with it in the future.
In 1977, following a period of protracted but successful negotiations two new
lodges were consecrated primarily to accommodate some 40 coloured freemasons
previously members of the lodges operating under the jurisdiction of the
unrecognized Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania. These brethren
completely severed their former association and were regularly admitted as
252 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA
Freemasons under the Grand Lodge of South Africa. The United Grand Lodge of
England, the Grand Lodges of Ireland and Scotland continue to grant Charters
for new lodges at their discretion. The Grand Lodge of South Africa may be seen
as the first positive step towards the formation of a United Grand Lodge of South
Africa, a realization predicted for distant years.
Pursuant to the strong message in last year's fraternal review (1987
Proceedings pg. 266) the Grand Master has further attempted to clarify the
feelings of Mason and his fellow. "In our association, have we always
conscientiously and truly applied the basic teachings and lessons of our noble
order? Can we say, without fear of contradiction or risk of debasing our
conscience that in our interaction with our brother, irrespective of the level of
hierarchy in the Order, we have acted honourably and been motivated by honest
intention - that personal and selfish interests - let alone self-aggrandizement did
not cloud our thinking and influence our actions? Have we paused for a moment
to contemplate on the serious effect that a thoughtless or hasty word or deed may
have? Such action may break a link or even destroy a relationship that time can
never mend. Before committing ourselves to action did we perhaps think of
placing ourselves in the position of the unfortunate victim of our attack - to
remember that he also has certain rights, feelings and problems and was acting in
all sincerity in accordance with the dictates of his conscience, with full
justification for his behaviour? He also is entitled to his view. Do we have the
right to force our view on him?
Only when our own words and actions are above reproach and we
participate in a healthy and respected relationship with our fellow and brother,
based on a true spirit of brotherly love, mutual understanding, consideration and
a willingness to co-operate, can we pride ourselves as active and positive
contributors to the advancement, progress and success of our Grand Lodge."
At a Special Service of Praise and Thanksgiving in acknowledgement of
blessings received, the Grand Master suggested to ever bear in mind that masonic
strength does not and never will lie in numbers but in the mettle, not in quantity
but in quality. We are not just another social or convivial club. Ours is a way of
life, in fact a way of living, a peculiar morality, a distinct and distinguished Order.
Everyone cannot and need not necessarily be a good ritualist, but everyone is
certainly competent of a sense of perception. Those excellences and distinctions
of character that are enshrined in our rituals, can be practised and should be
insisted upon, at all levels of our masonic hierarchy.
In order to maintain Grand Lodge as a fully financially independent and
adequately funded institution, a five year Grand Lodge Fund was established. In
reflecting the change in costs, it was pointed out that when some of the older
brethren were initiated during the years of sterling currency in South Africa, the
cost of entering Freemasonry was approximately equivalent to a full month's
salary, for an average middle class person. Today the cost of entering can be
measured in terms of a few hours of work in order to earn the subscription and
initiation fees. All brethren through their lodges were committed to raising 1 M.
Rand over the next five years or $300 per member.
FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 253
When the Mayor of Cape Town welcomed Grand Lodge he told of how once
he asked a Masonic friend to explain to him the attraction of the Craft. The reply
was along these lines:
"It is rooted in the midst of antiquity.
and points to God and Eternity.
It is past, present and future, it
belongs to the ages.
It circles the globe and stands at the
crossroads of the world.
It is steeped in tradition and traced
in the pages of history.
It makes a good man. better. This is Masonry."

At a Special Communication in 1982. Grand Lodge approved imposing a
levy against each lodge for the sole purpose of preserving and restoring their
magnificent Freemasons' Hall in Adelaide to acceptable health, fire and safety
standards. The cost of the first stage of the total five year project was estimated at
$1.1 M.
The progressive Grand Master encouraged those attending Grand Lodge to
seek out men of good character as potential new blood for the views of
Freemasonry. "It has to be remembered that Freemasonry is selective in its
membership and is neither suitable for. nor intended to be an association for all
men. We stand to gain nothing but to lose a great deal if. without proper thought,
we approach a person whose nature and general attitudes to life does not conform
to the principles and tenets of the Craft. Moreover, it is essential that great care be
taken in the selection of candidates to avoid subsequent embarrassment and ill-
will should a proposition be rejected."
The Board of General Purposes resolved to incorporate Grand Lodge to
relieve individual trustees from ownership and responsibility for the real estate,
general and benevolent funds and other assets of Grand Lodge. Annual dues
payable to Grand Lodge were increased to $15.00 per member.
"Ladies' and Friends' Nights" are very popular, at which a qualified Grand
Lodge Officer speaks on the subject of Freemasonry. Quoted to be most
successful, "firstly by bringing the ladies a little closer to our confidence, and
secondly by preparing the ground work for possible new members among the
non-masonic menfolk."

Grand Lodge participated in the levelling of 19 cornerstones and 6

The Grand Orator's address, "What Should We Do?" laments about
Masonry coming under attack. Several analogies are vividly illustrated. "In every
decision in life there is a short view and a long view. Happy is the man who never
barters future good for present pleasure. Happy is the man who sees things, not in
light of the moment but in light of eternity. When one learns that the hard way is
often the best way, and that the long view is always the right view, we will base our
lives upon masonic teaching and its great light and no storm will shake the
foundation; right acts, not right answers."
The Grand Master issued a reprimand for the violation of Masonic Law to 4
brethren who distributed among certain members of Grand Lodge a printed
handbill promoting the candidacy of a brother for the office of Grand Junior
Warden. He commented that those chosen to lead are done so based upon their
past dedication and commitment to the Craft and not upon promises, no matter
how noble. He stated that it is a Mason's responsibility to maintain the dignity
and decorum of Grand Lodge and to avoid it becoming a political organization.

Because of various debates, the Grand Master recommended a committee be
struck to make a thorough study of the matter of memory work requirements in
other grand jurisdictions of U.S.A.
Dispensation until December 1986 was granted to each lodge to make public
appearances and to participate in special historic occasions, events and functions
celebrating the Sesquicentennial of Independence of the Republic of Texas. The
event or function must be of a noncontroversial, nonpartisan, patriotic and/or
community character.
In order to reduce the number of suspensions for non-payment of dues, the
Grand Master proclaimed that the W.M. of each lodge shall appoint a committee
of at least 5 members to be known as the "Committee on Suspensions".
Guidelines and directions were included in this proclamation.
The Regional Conference Program on Masonic Education, designed for
establishing closer harmony, improved communications and understanding
among and between members and officers was given a preferred position when
the Grand Master proclaimed and directed that all lodges refrain from
scheduling or participating in any masonic related activities that conflict with
attendance by their members at the Regional Conference in their area. Current
trends in the attitudes, customs and practices within our society have created a
vital need for a closer relationship among ALL Masons. The 15 Regional
Conferences held at 1:00 RM. on Saturday afternoon and ending no later than
4:00 RM. were attended by 5,520 of which 3,320 were lodges officers.
With statewide concurrent jurisdiction working well in at least 29 other
jurisdictions, the committee on the Grand Master's recommendations approved
statewide concurrent jurisdiction. Research indicated that about five percent join
a lodge not in their immediate area.
A new lodge officer training program concentrating on basic lodge
operations was developed and named L.I.F.E. (Lodge Instruction for
Effectiveness). There will be issued a wallet-size certificate for those who
complete the program.
Fraternal reviews are handled in a somewhat different fashion, not by Grand
Lodge but by specific topics such as the Movement of the Ancient Penalties,
Masonic Enhancement Committees, Fraternal Relations with Prince Hall
Masons, etc. Subsequent reporting on the specific topics is lifted from the
individual Grand Lodge Proceedings.
The hard bound copy of the Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Texas is
most comprehensive and resourceful.

In support of the Grand Master's forthright manner in conveying his
displeasure over sloppy dress and conduct at and in lodge meetings, the
Committee on the Grand Master's Address further commented. "By our disregard
for our own appearance we certainly do not convey pride of association in the
Masonic fraternity. Come on brothers, lets relegate the macho image of the
mountain man or frontiersman to the outdoors. The wearing of a shirt, tie and
coat isn't too much to ask of ourselves. The cultured gentleman is the character
we seek in our lodge rooms."
Long Service Secretaries are recorded in the Proceedings in years of
dedication given to their lodges. The most senior commenced his 56 years of
continuous service in 1930.
Stewart Pollard. Executive Secretary of the M.S. A., was the deserving
recipient of the prestigious PC. Tucker Medal for a life of courage, devotion to
duty, love of family and service to his nation and community. "A man does what
he must - in spite of persona! consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers and
pressures - and that is the basis of all human morality" J.F.K..
Two computers, a Macintosh for the editor of the Masonic Newspaper and
an l.B.M. system for the Grand Secretary's office were purchased for $25,000. The
Trustees authorized the borrowing of that sum from the Charity Income Account.

Masonic Temple in Montreal.
The Long Range Planning Committee addressed three questions:
1. Where Are We?
2. Where Do We Want To Be?
3. How Do We Get There?
Following each were recommendations to be adopted by lodges and Grand
Lodge, concluding with Public Awareness strategies such as developing a
Masonic Purpose at the State Level. This Purpose being built around a
commitment of SELF!

From the Grand Master's address - "Each of us has the gem of Freemasonry
in his hands, but I am sure that most of us are not aware of its true value. Not
since the Middle Ages has there been such a need for Freemasonry, which is the
only institution that can offer stability so surely needed in such a turbulent
society. Freemasonry got its start from the need of the community outside the
stonemason's craft to adopt the moral standards and life style of operative
masons. I believe we have similar circumstances existing today, but we have
much more fierce competition for the spare time and hearts of men. The great
changes that have taken place in community life, with the tearing down of
convention and the lowering of standards, have presented us with a great
opportunity to show our real worth but we must accept the challenge and act
now."
He also noted that throughout its history. Freemasonry has been
amalgamating lodges and changing buildings and in most cases it has been
highly successful. Business, churches and government have adopted this method
of reducing operating costs, not as a strategem for survival, but a means of
strengthening lodges and preparation for development ahead.
Welfare Awareness Seminars by the Board of Benevolence continued to
endorse the concern of the Craft in relation to those Brethren and their widows,
dependants and children in need of some assistance. Does your lodge have an
active awareness of need within its membership? Does your lodge keep a
widows register: Does it maintain contact with wives of deceased brethren? 75
petitions totalling $114,285. and 38 loans totalling - $141,648 were granted.
The several Royal Freemasons' Homes of Victoria provided accommodation
and full nursing care for 676 elderly persons. Donations towards upkeep are tax
deductible. The chairman of the Freemasons Hospital stressed the importance of
obtaining Hospital Insurance as those without it incur extremely high costs at a
time of illness when there is considerable associated concern and worry. Rates
per day vary from $240 to $315. With a bed capacity of 183. some 8.581 patients
received inpatient treatment during the year.
On the recommendation of the Masonic Buildings Committee the Board
approved 9 loans totalling $49,750 for building and property improvements.
The Board approved a number of 3 minute tapes relating to Freemasonry
submitted by the Public Relations Committee, for distribution to radio stations
which were invited to play them as a community service.
In recognition of their Centenary in 1989. the Pan Pacific Masonic
Conference will be hosted in Melbourne. Centenary jewels are now being sold to
help defray costs, and a video tape advertising the event was distributed by the
258 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA
Grand Master on visits to other Grand Lodges. Copies will be distributed world
wide.
Computerization of membership records is completed. The Board approved
the purchase of a hard disc computer at a cost of $6,640 for the Accounts
Department.

The Grand Master shared his belief that young men today are beginning to
search for something more in depth in life than just the material pleasures we are
supposed to enjoy. When asked his impression of the Craft a newly initiated
brother replied that he was very impressed with the ceremony of initiation, but
what impressed him most was that every brother put out his hand to welcome
him. On the second occasion the same thing happened and several brethren went
out of their way to look after him and make his evening comfortable. He then said
- "I know that I have not received that in any other organization to which I belong
and I doubt if I receive as much in my own family." (Does this happen in your
lodge?)
The Grand Master concluded his address by remarking that Freemasonry
must continue to be progressive and thus the penalties in all obligations are out of
date and should be discontinued. "We are the only State in Australia where the
penalties still remain in the ritual. The Board of General Purposes has decided to
omit the penalties as of July 1. Amendments to the ritual will be issued shortly."
The Board of Benevolence also administrates the Widows, Orphans and
Aged Freemasons Fund. Scholarships, Cottage Homes, Metropolitan Villages.
Country Villages, Masonic Hostel and Nursing Home. Charity Workshops and
Hospital Visitors Programmes all come under the purview of the Board.
Individual lodge donations to these funds surpassed $80,000 this year. Forty-eight
full scholarships of $500 and seven half scholarships of $250 were awarded for
post secondary education.
The report of the Grand Treasurer shows two circle graphs delineating
Grand Lodge expenditure and income per member. Annual per capitation fee
was $10.03 per member.
A soft business shirt with turned down fused collar and a white bow tie with
cummerbund, black tail coat and black trousers was approved as an alternative to
full evening dress.
The second and third daylight lodges were consecrated.

ities.

The Grand Master proposed defining in writing what the purpose and
function of his Grand Lodge should be. The preparation of the Grand Lodge
mission statement led to one for the Craft Lodge and also one for the Master
Mason.
GRAND LODGE MISSION STATEMENT
"To provide leadership by example and education to the Fraternity in
Wisconsin by establishing the scope and quality of its members. Lodges and their
activities, so the tenets of Freemasonry will be practiced by each of us in our daily
lives and the Fraternity will be perceived as an organization whose members are
respected by their families, friends and communities."
CRAFT LODGE MISSION STATEMENT
"To make Master Masons, provide for their Masonic education, provide an
organized outlet for its members to practice Masonry as a group activity and as a
responsible respected institution in the community in which it is located."
MISSION FOR A MASTER MASON
"To learn what Masonry is so that he can enjoy practicing the tenets of
Freemasonry in his home, church, office, county, state. Lodge, and in his life."
Recognizing that societal standards are constantly changing at an
accelerating pace, society has always tested and again is testing the value of its
institutions, because the values of the 60's and 7lVs for each of its benefits also had
something lacking. One of our dilemmas and opportunities is that our society's
rate of change is much faster than our Fraternity and its members. During the
60's and 70's our Masonic value system generally was not accepted by society.
However there are strong indications our values are again being recognized and
the Masonic principles that have guided societal changes for many years should
continue to do so because their value has been proven through many generations.
Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth have a high human value and will continue to
do so. If Masons truly understand this and practice these, our Fraternity will be
260 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA
strong and growing. If we forget this, or if it is artificial and we only go through
the motions, society rapidly tags it as such and passes on by. The Grand Master
directed the prime task of each Mason is to make sure these principles remain in
the forefront of all activities as Masons collectively contribute to the process of
improving our Fraternity and society. When we do this, men will want to be part
of our Fraternity.
Do all Lodges have quality activities that will promote the tenets of our
Craft? Are each of our members Masonically literate? Do lodges have a product
called Masonry ready for the market place? Does each Master Mason know
enough about our product "Masonry and the Lodge" to be able to talk about it
comfortably? Are we mere form, or do we practice Masonry in our daily lives?
The Grand Master's leadership focused on the following strategies.
Lodges need to strengthen their self-sufficiency through Masonic
knowledge and to exercise initiative in their activities in their
communities.
Grand Lodge officers, led by the Grand Master, are to serve the Craft
and help lodges achieve that self-sufficiency.
Self-sufficiency is obtained through knowledge and initiative.
Knowledge is obtained through training and communication.
Most want to do things right. If they fail it is because of lack of
knowledge, not lack of trying.
People support what they help create.
It is essential that lodge members be involved in planning and in the
decision activities of their Lodge.
With three years of computerized membership data and lodge trend profiles,
the Deputy Grand Master took computerized profiles showing 5 year trends to all
Districts. Each District Deputy now has a profile for his District as well as for
each lodge in that District. In composite, trends absolutely show that lodges with
that sense of fraternal quality in their social programs and lodge activities, their
membership and leadership, are receiving petitions and growing in spite of
continued deaths of older members.
The format of District meetings was revised to include participation by those
attending in discussion and exchanging information on the following issues
pertinent to present day masonry.
A. Where will Masonry be in the year 2000 in Wisconsin?
B. What is the proper relationship between the Worshipful Master. Secretary
and Committees?
FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE 261
C. What are proper uses of a Masonic Building?
D. What are proper Masonic volunteer activities?
E. Masonic Morals.
F. Youth Activities and Organizations within Wisconsin.
An attempt by Grand Lodge to put into legislative form the issue of
cohabitation failed. There is growing evidence among psychologists, sociologists
and psychiatrists that the bonds of family life are important to our children and
our individual mental and physical well-being, and particularly when taken in
the context of marriage. Family structures are changing. Many wives are working
outside the home and young children are being placed in day care centers. Many
are aware of situations where a man and woman are living together, acknowledge
it is without benefit of a marriage ceremony and seem to find no moral dilemma
in these circumstances. Other moral issues such as homosexuality and abortion
have not been brought into the Masonic legislative arena, yet these issues
engender more discussion than the issue of marriage in many areas of society and
our Fraternity. The Grand Master believes the substance of Masonry and moral
issues resolves itself into:
1. The decision of the persons involved and their prerogatives to live as they
choose within the law of the land, and
2. The local Lodge's decision as to whether they want a specific individual
and his lifestyle within their Lodge
The Masonic Fraternity has historically been identified with a "high moral
standard" for membership. The maintenance of such continues to be of
paramount importance. Although for some, that does not include a religious or a
legal marriage, each Lodge must decide what that "high moral standard" is in
their community. It is in a state of being tested by our society, and so also are we
being tested by society.
The Grand Master arrested the Charter of an inactive lodge where
consolidation was not a solution to its problems and it was a liability to itself and
the Grand Lodge. The Grand Lodge has taken title to its building and contents
and its mortgage and the Trustees are now in the process of disposing of the
building. Only when the members of a Lodge want it to survive, will it survive.
That means it must be financially stable and be active as a Lodge.
With increased programming and corresponding cost increases, the Grand
Lodge raised the per capita tax from $8.55 to $10.00.
Some of the recommendations of the Long Range Planning include:
1. Removal of Masonic symbols from cars before sale.
2. Types of volunteer activities for lodges to become involved.
3. Donation or consignment of Masonic jewelry and regalia by widows.
4. Grand Lodge organizational structure for acceptance of donated property.
5. Grand Lodge organizational structure for receiving property of lodges
where charters are forfeited.
262 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA
The letter that the Grand Master sends to widows should contain a
paragraph encouraging them to donate or consign for sale to the lodges their
deceased husbands' masonic jewelry or other emblems if they no longer have use
for such.

tee report include:

For the first time in the history of the Grand Lodge of Wyoming the
Proceedings were printed in house with the computer using the "Word Processor"
program. This cut the cost nearly in half. Keeping with the 1985 Grand Master's
theme. "Freemasonry. One Family in Unity." workshops in the four quadrants of
the state focused on Lodge Officer Management and Leadership Training. The
report of the Youth Committee noted that 20 scholarships of $500 each were
awarded to those well qualified students who might otherwise be unable to attend
college or whose attendance would place a real financial burden on the family. At
the close of Grand Lodge, the new Grand Master made available to all. bumper
stickers with the Masonic emblem and his theme. "Freemasonry, a Great Way of
Life".

EPILOGUE
We have attempted to illuminate those areas from several jurisdictions where
positive growth and development has led to greater things. It is our hope that,
within our jurisdiction. Grand Lodge Officers. District Officers and especially
Worshipful Masters and other Lodge Officers will be motivated to consider like
possibilities within their respective areas of responsibility.
Our aim was to select that which may be viewed as good, practical and useful
and. at the same time, progressive and visionary. In a very few instances have we
offered remarks of our own. By quoting the authors, it is our belief that you. as a
sound reader, will extract that which is good and discard that which appears
defective, impractical or non-workable. Keep in mind that Freemasonry is a
progressive science. Speculative masonry was born in change. If the 'Operatives'
had not allowed the 'Speculatives' membership in the Craft, we would not be here
as such today.
The time has come to tell the world that we are not a secret organization
worthy of the contempt in which we are held by many, but the oldest and best
fraternal organization the world has ever known. We must dispel the myth that
we are a religion, as this idea separates us from so many today.
This is the first time that the fraternal reviews have been processed on hard
disk for computerized layout and printing. The comparative membership chart is
a first. It also appears to be the first time in recent years that the Chairman of the
Committee also has been the reviewer.
With a new reviewer, comes new designs and directions which may be
catalytic for the reader and visionary for those determined to adventure into the
uncharted future of our beloved fraternity. Hopefully your horizons and those of
your respective lodges will be expanded through these reviews, keeping in mind
this closing thought -
The Anvil of God's Word
Last eve I passed beside a blacksmith's door
And heard the anvil ring the vesper chime.
Then looking in. I saw upon the floor.
Old hammers worn with beating years of time.
"How many anvils have you had," said I,
"To wear and batter all these hammers so?"
"Just one," said he, and then with twinkling eye,
"The anvil wears the hammers out, you know."
"And so," I thought. "The Anvil of God's Word,
For ages sceptic blows have beat upon.
Yet though the noise of falling blows was heard.
The Anvil is unchanged, the hammers gone."
-John Clifford
Respectfully and fraternally submitted on behalf of the Grand Lodge Com-
mittee on Fraternal Correspondence.

APPENDIX "A"
ADDRESS BY M.W. BRO. ROBERT C. SINGER
AT THE
GRAND MASTER'S BANQUET
JULY 20, 1988
THE GRAND MASTER: I am now going to ask M.W. Bro. A. Lou Copeland to
introduce the speaker.
M.W. BRO. A. LOU COPELAND:
Most Worshipful Grand Master. Distinguished Guests and my Beloved
Brethren:
Most Worshipful Sir. I acknowledge with gratitude the honour of introducing
our speaker this evening. M.W. Bro. Robert C. Singer, the Immediate Past Grand
Master of Masons in the State of New York.
He is a native of Mt. Vernon. New York. He received his Bachelor's and Mas-
ter's Degrees in journalism and mass communications from New York Universi-
ty, where he later taught in the political science faculty.
As many of you are aware. I first met our honoured guest in the early 70s
when we were both involved in the chemical specialty industry, where he served
as the Vice-President of Public Affairs and Director of the Soap and Detergent
Association. But, it was not until May of 1984. at the Annual Communication of
the Grand Lodge of New York, that we learned of our Masonic connection.
Bro. Singer became a Mason in 1953 in Publicity Lodge No. 1000 (the lodge
of the communications arts) in New York City; served as Worshipful Master in
1961; and as D.D.G.M. in 1965. He holds many prestigious Masonic awards and
belongs to most of the compendium bodies in New York State. He received the
Supreme Council 33° of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite in 1985.
Bro. Singer and his wife Elna. a charming and gracious lady, live in Floral
Park. Long Island, where they are both active in the First Church of Christ Scien-
tist. He served in the U.S. Army Intelligence Reserve from 1948 to 1960, with an
active tour of duty from 1950 to 1952 during the Korean conflict.
In M.W. Bro. Robert C. Singer we have a man with unusual charm and ex-
traordinary intelligence — a man with a brilliant analytical mind — a great ob-
server, possessing a very fine way with words — a journalist — an administrative
executive, all coupled with a great sense of humour and a keen wit.
During his two-year term as Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of New York,
which ended two months ago. he established himself as a great humanitarian and
APPENDIX "A" 267
showed that he was eminently qualified to serve as the Grand Master Mason in
the State of New York.
M.W. Bro. Singer will he remembered all over North America as one of the
outstanding Grand Masters. His programmes inspired and ignited Masons with a
sense of pride and achievement, his thrust of bringing Masonry into the twentieth
century and. yes. into the twenty-first century, by telling the great Masonic story to
Mason and non-Mason alike through radio. T.V. and newspaper media in a very
clear and understandable manner, and earned the respect of all his brethren. But.
above all. he is a gifted communicator, both in the spoken and written word. As
Grand Master of his Grand Lodge, he brought to his high office a new hope for
excitement, a new hope for our future, and a new vibrancy which is reflected in
his being chosen to be the Chairman of the prestigious Annual Conference of
Grand Masters of Masons in North America, held in Cedar Rapids. Iowa, in Feb-
ruary of this year.
The fourteen months that M.W. Bro. Singer and I were privileged to serve to-
gether as Grand Masters was a period in which was created a close and enduring
personal friendship, and fostered a warmth and a closeness which will last for
many years.
M.W. Bro. Singer, as you travel in your quest for Masonic excellence, may
you continue to inspire and be inspired.
Brethren, it is. therefore, with a great deal of personal pride that I present to
you — soldier — communicator — and most excellent Mason — our guest speak-
er — M.W. Bro. Robert C. Singer.
M.W. BRO. ROBERT C. SINGER:
Thank you. M.W. Bro. Copeland. Most Worshipful Grand Master. Most
Worshipful Past Grand Masters. Distinguished Guests from both sides of the in-
visible border, and Brethren of a great Grand Lodge, good evening.
I must say. my good friend Lou. that you far exceeded your usual generous
manner in putting together that fulsome introduction. After hearing those profuse
words of praise and encomiums, the expectation of hearing what I'm going to say
is almost unbearable! One thing is sure; it had better be good! To quote another
Mason who is frequently introduced in similar glowing terms, "my father would
have enjoyed it: my mother would have believed it."
Seriously. I deeply appreciated the kind invitation of your Grand Master.
M.W. Bro. William Pellow. another good friend, to address this distinguished au-
dience. Frankly. I'm a little in awe of you. It has been my good fortune to attend
this Banquet twice in the recent past, and I have been tremendously impressed by
the calibre of both the speakers and the audience. You obviously lowered your
standards in one of these categories tonight!
268 APPENDIX "A
Just this past weekend, in Kansas City, I was with your 1986 speaker. M.W.
Bro. Forrest Haggard. Past Grand Master of Kansas and a distinguished clergy-
man, at a meeting of a new group called the Masonic Renewal Task Force (about
which 1*11 say more later on). He asked me to send his warmest regards to all of
you.
I'm not quite sure what to talk about this evening. I made that same opening
statement to an audience recently, and some kind individual in the back of the
room yelled out. "how about 10 minutes!" In all honesty. I'm as tired as you are of
hearing sermons from the various Masonic platforms about the problems of
Freemasonry today, and how we all have to work harder, and how it used to be
better in the good old days — that's one of my real favourites!
I'm also tired of hearing Brother Masons say. "we can't change; it's always
been done that way." Parenthetically. 1 read an interesting, true story recently that
illustrates the inherent fault in that philosophy. It seems that Bismarck, as an am-
bassador to the court of Alexander II. observed a sentry on duty seemingly only
guarding the lawn areas of the Czar's palace. He asked the Czar why the sentry
stood in the middle of the lawn. The Czar didn't know, so he asked his aide-de-
camp. The aide didn't know, so the Czar summoned one who should know, the
general of the troops. The general informed the Czar that it had always been
done, and it was according to an ancient and accepted custom. (Sound familiar?)
Czar Alexander immediately ordered an investigation and a report. After
three days, the report came back. It seems that in the spring of 1780. some 80 years
before, a sentry was posted on the lawn by Catherine the Great. She had looked
out from her bedroom window one blustery spring morning and saw a delicate
flower pushing its way out of the winter earth. She ordered a sentry to be posted at
that site to prevent anyone from picking the flower as it emerged.
The order was still being obeyed 80 years later!
Why do we as Masons do what we do the same old way? Perhaps we. too.
need to do some investigating. Today, there is simply too much to accomplish to
waste time and energy on outmoded and antiquated ways. If we will look at our
work in our lodges and temples, not to mention what we do in the other areas of
our life, and see what brings light, education and brotherhood, we won't waste our
time posting sentries to guard flowers that no longer exist. As one writer put it so
well recently, we will be looking for new breakthroughs and new opportunities to
preserve the necessary, the beautiful and the useful for the good of all.
What I would like to share with you this evening are a few simple observa-
tions that I feel strongly about in considering the present and future of our belov-
ed fraternity. They are certainly not original to me, but they are sincerely felt. I of-
fer these as a 35-year-Mason, as one who has been a Lodge Officer, a Past Master,
a District Deputy Grand Master, a Grand Lodge Committee Member and
Chairman, a Grand Treasurer, Deputy Grand Master, and for the past two years,
a Grand Master of Masons in your neighbour to the south. I think it's fair to say
that I've paid my dues!
APPENDIX "A" 2M
(Before making these observations, and noting my reference to Grand Treas-
urer. I must caution you to watch carefully your new Grand Treasurer's actions.
In New York, the last six Grand Treasurers, including I'm sorry to say yours truly,
have purchased new cars while in office. 'Nuff said.) Back to serious business.
Let me take as my overall text (see how quickly this is degenerating into a ser-
mon!) a statement by a Past Grand Master of New York in our Proceedings some
61 years ago:
"Freemasonry is a life to be lived, not a formality to be perfunctorily ob-
served. . . It is a life to be lived, not a set of empty creeds to which lip service is
given ... It is a life grounded in religion, organized in morality, mellowed by a
good fellowship, humanized in charity, and dedicated in service." So said M.W.
Bro. Harold J. Richardson in 1927. Pretty good, isn't it. and it only took 54 words
to say it.
More recently. I tried to express much the same sentiments, in writing that
"the bedrock of effective Masonic communication is the everyday practical living
of a life that is guided by religious, moral and ethical principles" and "The most
effective Masonic communication is the individual Freemason's good daily
behavior, with his family, in his business, in his community." 44 words all told.
Regardless of who said it better or more succinctly, and I willingly yield to
M.W. Bro. Richardson, we must live and practice Freemasonry if we wish to see a
renaissance of interest in our ancient Craft. We are what non-Masons judge Ma-
sonry by. If. as Pogo said. "We have met the enemy and he is us." we're finished,
or will be soon. If we live our lives in such a manner that, in large or small ways.
we are looked up to by our peers, and recognized as Masons, there's hope for us
yet. This choice, unlike many other aspects of our lives, is ours and totally within
our control.
My second point has to do with the problem of criticism. It has been with us
for centuries, and I have no doubt that it will be with us for centuries to come.
"What." you say. "he believes the fraternity will be around in future centuries?"
You bet I do. and so does that great positive thinker, R.W. and Rev. Dr. Norman
Vincent Peale. a 62-year-Mason. who told the Conference of Grand Masters in
Cedar Rapids last February that he had no doubt Freemasonry would be here
1.000 years from now!
Our critics say: You're a secret society; a religion; you preach salvation by
good works; your ritual is a form of worship; the Craft is incompatible with Chris-
tianity. To all of which I say. BALDERDASH! But saying that doesn't stop the
criticism or educate the millions of uninformed people who hear these charges,
false though they may be. So, what must we do to counter this criticism? The an-
swer in a growing number of Grand Lodges is to build a communications
backfire of positive, factua^information about who we are. what we believe, what
we do.
We do not get down in the gutter mud and debate with our critics. Oh, we re-
spond, but only on the high road, in media of our choosing and in our own words.
270 APPENDIX "A"
As some in this audience know, we in New York have embarked recently on
a far-reaching public information program. It involves: advertisements in daily
and weekly newspapers, radio spots. TV public service announcements, an attrac-
tive Q & A folder, a special full-page advertisement in the regional edition of
TIME magazine, the creation of the DeVVitt Clinton Masonic Community Serv-
ice Award for Lodges to present to non-Masonic organizations and individuals in
their communities, a 15-minute sound slide show entitled "Brotherhood and
Service ... the Freemasons." eye-catching bumper stickers and the wearing of Ma-
sonic identification, a more intensive lodge involvement in community service
projects. Masonic information nights, and so forth.
Other Grand Lodges have launched similar programs, in varying degrees.
These public-oriented projects. I believe, help to dispel the myths put forth by our
critics, and they reach literally millions of others who have never been exposed to
any information about Freemasonry, right or wrong in content. To use a business
phrase, we are taking a "pro-active" position in the field of mass communications.
It is time for action not lethargy. As our senior Past Grand Master in New York is
fond of saying, "God gave us two ends to use, one on which to sit, one on which to
muse. Success depends on which you choose. Heads you win, tails you lose." Ob-
viously, we've opted for heads!
Thus endeth my second observation. It's time we came out from under the
bushel basket and let our light shine.
Next, let me turn to the world around us. Freemasonry like everything else on
this globe is impacted by the environment in which it operates. What we some-
times fail to recognize is the fact that we live in a dynamic environment. Many of
us grew up in the World War II era. We tend to view everything the way it was. not
the way it really is today.
One of the realities of life today is that we are an aging fraternity in an aging
society. Most of us are well aware of the first fact, but we sometimes fail to recog-
nize the second.
Perhaps a few statistics will illustrate this point. Fact number 1, in 1985. there
were some 25,000 Americans who were age 100 or older. By the year 2050. this
number could reach one million! Fact number 2, the number of Americans cur-
rently over age 65 exceeds the entire population of Canada! Fact number 3, to
meet the projected demand for nursing homes, a concomitant of a maturing soci-
ety. 40 institutions per month must be built between now and year 2050. Fact num-
ber 4, each day in the U. S. 18 children are born to fathers over age 55 (a few inten-
tionally!) and 70 people over age 65 are picked up for disorderly conduct. I cite the
last for humorous relief only.
All these come under the heading of facts of life in an aging America. I
wouldn't be at all surprised if the numbers were somewhat relevant to the Cana-
dian population, if not now then in the near future.
APPENDIX "A" 271
There are other life environment changes to consider. The average family of
1945 — husband, wife, two kids — is in the minority today. In America. 54 per
cent of the women work. Families eat out on an average of three times a week.
Husband-wife responsibilities have rapidly changed. Television has become the
principal entertainment and news vehicle, supplanting the movie house and
newspaper, respectively.
Okay, the world around us has changed, but have we? Not very much, in my
opinion. And there may well be other changes, not of a demographic nature, that
have materially affected public attitudes toward fraternalism. The question before
the house is how do we ascertain what they are?
This past weekend, in Kansas City, a group of concerned appendant body
leaders from the Scottish Rite. York Rite and Shrine, with a sprinkling of present
and past Grand Masters, brainstormed some of today's problems, and concluded
that it was time to find out. using scientific opinion research, just where Masonry
stands in the eyes of the American public on a national basis. You'll be hearing
more about this in the coming weeks, but suffice it to say that we'll be in a much
sounder position to make whatever adjustments are necessary after we find out
just where fraternalism is positioned in today's lifestyle, and also how it should be
marketed.
That's right. I said "marketed." The day of just sitting back and waiting for
prospective members somehow to find out about our fraternity has passed. With-
out compromising any of the valid and time-honoured practices of the Craft, we
must seek out new methods to reach our audience, our public as the marketers
say. with the valuable message about the real and potential role of Freemasonry
in this high tech society.
The modern corporation uses market research, computers, electronic com-
munications, advanced leadership training techniques, liberal incentives for its
corporate family, provides opportunities for growth and advancement especially
for younger leaders, offers rewards for new and creative ideas. Can we. the world's
oldest, largest and best fraternal organization afford to do any less? You know
how I would answer that question, and I have more than a clue that most of you
feel the same way. thank goodness!
Well, that's the end of my evening sermon. Nothing very original or novel, to
be sure, just some sincerely-and-deeply-held thoughts of a Brother Mason, shared
with a Grand Lodge that is already doing many of these things, as we heard today.
I can tell you. from close-in personal observation, that you have in this Grand
Lodge the leadership to advance the Craft's fortunes in Ontario.
Now. let's get on with the work of rebuilding the Temple!
Thank you.
272 APPENDIX "A"'
DEPUTY GRAND MASTERS THANKS TO M.W. BRO. SINGER:
M.W. The Grand Master. Distinguished Guests and Brethren:
I have experienced many pleasures in my years in Masonry, and I now have
one more to add to that list. That is the great delight in having this opportunity to
thank our guest speaker on behalf of all the brethren. The applause is a testimony
at once to the speech and a show of appreciation and gladness to our speaker.
M.W. Bro. Singer has charmed and delighted us and given each of us something
to ponder as we return home. I enjoyed his strong and enthusiastic voice and par-
ticularly the attractive New York accent with which he expressed a great power
and dynamism and an intense belief in what he was saying.
He gave us a positive, forward-looking communication, and suggested
changes in attitudes to permit us to think of what we are doing and why. In short,
the message is one of work and effort, nothing is to be achieved unless we have
the will to do it. We are the ones who can help Masonry and our guest speaker has
appealed to our imaginations and offered us some ideas and much encourage-
ment.
It is difficult to give adequate expression of our sense of gratitude but. on
your behalf brethren, as well as my own. I just say thank you to our speaker, but
he can rest assured that although the words are simple, they are nonetheless a sin-
cere, a warm and a heartfelt thank vou from us all.
