THE NEWLY MADE MASTER MASON
The following beautiful expres
sion of our esteemed Past Grand
Master Chas, F. Buck is making
the rounds of the Masonic Press:
The newly-raised Master Mason
stands before us, the embodiment
of spiritual perfection, from which
the vices and superfluities of com
mon life have been extracted and
cleansed away. He grasps the
hand not of a man, but of man
kind —he becomes one with and a
part of the suffering mass as the
pledges of fellowship are unfold
ed to him and his footsteps, his
prayers and the sympathies of his
heart are consecrated to the ser
vice of his brother.
As a rule, the new Master Ma
son graps the vigor and beauty of
this consummation. He realizes
as he looks hastily, perhaps vague
ly, back over the various journeys
he has made from his first surprise
to the final climax, that a new and
broader view of his own being has
developed into consciousness. He
is, perhaps, dazzled in the revela
tion that has come to him- in the
beauties of a system which con
tains hidden in its simple and in
nocent formalities the whole prob
lem of life, aye, and of death and
immortality! § 3777^
He feels, in a breath, his weak
ness and his strength, his depend
ence and his sovereignty; his mor
tality and his divine hope. He
bows in a sense of humility before
the grandeur of the new light by
which his spirit sees, and dedi
cates himself in silent worship to
the realization of its deep sugges
tions. He may truly wonder why,
with so much of goodness and
beauty in the human heart which
Masonry has brought home to his
soul —like a new inspiration -the
world shou ld’'not be better and
happier than it is.
He is suddenly impressed with
the sublime truth that the best
part of our lives is that which we
live for and in others.
* *
The curse of our present system
of Masonry is ignorance. There
are many Masons who profess to
know all about the catechism, yet
who never read anything Mason
ic, not even the great light upon
the altar. If asked as to the mean
ing of any of the symbols, em
blems or legends, they appear
dumb- They even refuse to read
in the by-laws the answers to sim
ple questions, wanting them refer
fed to the Grand Master, imagin
ing that individual to be an infal
lible walking encyclopedia of law
and usage, and a compendium of
history, landmark and tradition,
One trouble with our present sys
tem is that we are not teaching
Masons to think, but to remember,
and so long as it is possible for a
man to stand up and recite ritual
by the yard, and receive the plau
dits of admiring friends, he has
very little desire to search after
those things which go to build the
fraternity into its high relation
ship, to human activity.-Illinois
Freemason.
«• *
“A good Mason” does not mean
a man who can roll off the ritual
like a phonograph, but one whose
handshake has an electrifying
shock of good fellowship that
draws you toward him, and one to
whom you want to confide your
sorrows and with whom you want
to share your joys.—Exchange.
THE MASTER
Let the Master be a Man of
strong character and when sitting
in the east remember well .Mason
ry is a character uilder, that he
will teach the craft that in the so
cial circle or in the private walks
of life, his character is formed,
that whatever he does is the result
of the thoughts he indulges in, in
public or private life, and by these
outgoings of the inner man, men
generally report what they really
are. Every passion, movement,
and muscle betrays the heart and
speaks the language of every
craftsman's heart.
The master should be a man of
broad views, well posted on Ma
soic principles, kind-hearted and
true, and fail not to teach these
things. —Masonic Journal
MASONIC APPLAUSE
As to correct form of applause
in a Masonic lodge, replying to a
correspondent, we would say
nothing of a definite character has
been satisfactorily settled In the
Grand Lodge of England ihe form
of Masonic applause, we under
stand, is by striking the knee one *
with the hand, or, more usually,
by a single clap. \cco dng t
our English brethren co itinued
applause is quite out of order.

In the Grand Lodge of Ireland
the brethren clap their hands as in
Canada, and there is no restriction
।as to the number of times. The
'same applies to the subordinate
। lodges in that country. The
method adopted in the Scottish
lodges is precisely the same as that
for the English lodges. In the
j United Stales a similar form pre
। vails to that followed in our Cana
dian lodges. — Masonic Sun.

; As 1 view the Masonic institu
| tion and its grand and noble prin
ciples, so dear to all of us, its pur
poses may be classed as twofold.
I The first is care of, and solici
tude for the brethren to make its
votaries wiser and better and con
sequently happier. The second,
as men and as Masons, not only to
watch with unfailing care, but to
i take, when time and opportunity
offer an active part in what is
i transpiring in the world around
i us, and to be directly interested in
i anything and everything which
I appertain-' in any way to the bet

the genet cl good of mankind. By
I doing this we shall be stronger

COMPENSATION.
The whole story of earthly exist
ence is one of compensations. Many
a gift we craved and were denied
held in its train ills we are glad to
have been spared. Many a sorrow
that has darkened our way, though
its memory may still remain bitter,
has wrought some change of char
acter or conditions that we would
be unwilling to give up.
