From
the South
I would like to
congratulate Bro Fred Marquardt
on
being raised to the Sublime Degree of Master Mason. Fred is eager
to to hit the ground running and has told me that he is c the
South. Go for it Bro Fred! It can be done because I did it my
first year as a Master Mason. It take a lot of hard work but it is
definitely possible. I attend the Leadership conference on January
31st
and
was pleased with the material presented. I hope to be able to
attend the Masonic Education Academy this year. I haven't attended
one since they changed format from the Warden's Academy to
emphasize education.
I
did do some traveling this month where I was able to visit a lodge
in Wilmington, Mass. As in all places I visit, I found the warmth
and love of my Brothers. I was able to witness a 1st
Degree
and found it very similar to ours. In fact, outside of California,
I found Mass to be the closest I've seen. The prayers were
different but I could have given the lecture and they wouldn't
have recognized the difference. I'll give a report at lodge this
month. I presented the Master with one of my pins as well as their
2 candidates. I have a bunch of my pins that were cut with an
error on them so I gave the candidates those pins and challenged
them to find the mistake. My pins resemble the “Point within
the Circle” so it was fitting for the 1st
degree
and the mistake was a ritualistic one. I still have the “error”
ones but I have to make more of the good ones. I've already
reordered them once.
I hope everyone is in good health
and if not, please contact a Brother, especially the Secretary so
that we can keep you in our prayers.
Bill Greenen, JW

By
Brother Rudyard Kipling
If you can keep your head when
all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If
you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make
allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be
tired of waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal with lies,
Or
being hated don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too
good, nor talk too wise;
If you can dream — and not
make dreams your master;
If you can think — and not make
thoughts your aim,
If you can meet with Triumph and
Disaster
And treat those two impostors the same:
If you can
bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make
a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to,
broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out-tools;
If
you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one
turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your
beginnings,
And never breathe a word about your loss:
If you
can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn
long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing
in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"
If
you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with
Kings — nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor
loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but
none too much:
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With
sixty seconds worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and
everything that's in it,
And — which is more —
you'll be a Man, my son!
