1984 ADDRESS OP THE GRAND MASTER

To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. s A.M. of Kansas: My brethren, I welcome you to the 129th Annual Communication of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas. It is my duty and my privilege to present this report on the status of our craft my observations, my recommendations, and my hopes for a better tomorrow. They tell the story in my church (First Christian of Atchison) of Owen Kellison, one of our earlier ministers who served our congregation for many years. It seems that • every so often. Reverend Kellison would take off his pastoral robes, come down to the main floor from his pulpit, grab a chair and say "I'm so mad 1" He would then proceed to give the congregation what-for. Then he would go back to the pulpit and say, "I'm sorry - I just get so mad about that!" Well, brethren, I'm not about to come down to the main floor from this podium, but I'm mad! I'm good and mad - mad as hell! I'm mad when I go to one lodge where the ritual is letter-perfect and the officers take pride in their work, and then into another lodge where the officers are merely going through the motions - totally unconcerned - in some cases not even reading it correctly. I'm mad when I visit a lodge where the Master has a program, where there is enthusiasm and a desire to participate, and in the next lodge I find a Master with not a sign of a program and the craft yawning and wondering how soon they can leave - if, indeed, they showed up at all. I'm mad when I go to a lodge to find dedicated Masons sitting in the chairs and a waiting list of brethren anxious to get started in the line, and in the next lodge they have to flip a coin - with the loser serving as Master for the coming year. This is Masonry? Brethren, I'm going to tell you what's wrong with our fraternity. First, I am compelled to say that it would be a terrible mistake for me to talk about what's wrong without acknowledging that there is a great deal that's right about this thing we call Freemasonry. There are so many good and wonderful things in this fraternity. But let me tell you what is wrong and what is tragic about our brotherhood. Right here, in this auditorium this morning, there is enough potential Masonic power to change every one of our lodges - to revitalize the entire Masonic fraternity of Kansas. There is a story about Benjamin Franklin and his discovery of electricity. The story says that Franklin stood under a darkened sky and literally wept as he saw great streaks of lightning racing across the horizon. He wept because such enormous energy was going unharnessed - unused - wasted. As Grand Master, there have been many times when it would have been easy to weep because there is so much unharnessed power going to waste in this fraternity of ours. I see the need - I see what this fraternity must do if it is to fulfill its God-given mission of the Brotherhood of Man under the Fatherhood of God. Brethren, I see three things wrong with our fraternity - or more correctly, wrong with us. First ... there are so many of us who cannot get beyond our own needs as we perceive them and reach out to others. We spend more time complaining about what Masonry is or isn't doing than we spend reaching out with a helping hand to our brethren. Second ... too many of us have no vision of what Masonry IS, and what Masonry should DO to fulfill our destiny. To be a real Mason is to be dedicated to a vision that has as its basis Faith, Hope and Charity. Third ... far too many of us have no real dedication to Masonry. ing time, so to speak, until something better comes along.

We seem to be mark-

Brethren, we are all responsible for this apathy that is so prevalent in our beloved fraternity. Our elders must not cease to remain active. Their experience must not go to waste - 'they must assume the role of advisors, but remember not to become dictators. Our

younger brethren must take over the role of active leadership and get involved with Masonry, always remembering to recognize the experience of the elders and be ready and willing to use it. We are the only ones responsible for the condition in which we find ourselves. We are all guilty. Brethren, let's do something about it! How about starting with you and me^ - here and now? Abraham Lincoln once said, "If this country of ours is ever destroyed, it will not be from without, but from within." Are we to be the instruments of our own destruction? Since its founding. Masonry has contributed so much to our way of life, our charities are the envy of all, the list of distinguished brethren who have graced our rolls is taken from all fields of endeavor and all walks of life. These are men who have changed our very world - and they have all belonged to our Fraternity. Our future is boundlessit all depends on you and on me, and what we do with it. My brethren, the fate of Freemasonry and what it stands for is in your hands. As you will it, so will it be. Council of Administration In the past five years it has been my privilege and honor to meet many dedicated Masons, but none more dedicated and devoted to Masonry than those who comprise the present Council of Administration. Each one of them - R: .W: . Arris Johnson, D.G.M., R:.W:. Durward Danielson, G.S.W., and R: .W:. Clifford Knauss, G.J.W. - bring to the fraternity a new freshness, a promise of great things for Masonry in the very near future. To each of you I give my thanks for your help. Your willingness to assist in any way was, and is, greatly appreciated. I sincerely hope and pray that when each of you in your turn is installed as Grand Master, you will be as fortunate as I have been. I could not ask for a Council more devoted or dedicated than you three have been. To each of you I pledge my allegiance and my thanks. Past Grand Masters To this distinguished body of Masons I say thank you. Thank you for your help, your guidance and your counseling. Your support has been much appreciated and has certainly made by path smoother. Special thanks to M:.W:. F. Warren Starns, M:.W:. Robert Caplinger and M:.W:. Richard Porter. I have called on them many, many times this year, and they were always there and always willing to help. To the rest of the craft I would like to give this reminder: If you are having problems, if you need guidance in your lodge, whatever the problem - utilize this body of Masonry. Their expertise, their knowledge, their dedication is yours for the asking. Appointive Officers Each incoming Grand Master is charged with the awesome responsibility of appointing ten Grand Lodge officers to fill the chairs of Grand Lodge, beginning with the office of Chaplain and continuing through the office of Assistant Grand Tyler. I consider this an awesome task because there are literally thousands of good brethren who are qualified to fill these chairs, brethren who have spent many hours in the quarries of Masonry and selecting only ten is a hard job. I hope that in the future each of you will be given a chance to serve Grand Lodge in some capacity as a reward for your labors. The officers I have had the privilege of appointing have served Grand Lodge with zeal and enthusiasm. Their attendance at all grand Lodge functions has been nearly perfect, as the record will attest. In the beginning I said that these officers were not appointed to serve me personally, but to serve the Grand Lodge of Kansas, and this they have done. As we come to the end of this Masonic year, I say "Well done, good and faithful servants, well done". On behalf of the fraternity - thank you. Area Deputy Grand Masters and District Deg_uty_ Grand Masters Each year we ask more and more of this dedicated group of Masons, and this year was no exception. Last February, 1984, they were asked to come to Wichita for an orientation meeting. They were given a tour of our Masonic Home - a first for many of them. They were given a chance to meet their Area Deputy Grand Master, a chance to visit with each other, and were introduced to the Council of Administration. At this meeting I was able to give them an outline of the program I intended to pursue, and our Grand Secretary was able to explain to them their duties pertaining to his office. M:.W:. j. Fred Williamson explained to them their duties in regard to the District Schools of Instruction.

They were also asked to get in touch with their counterparts in the Eastern Star, the District Aids, and to plan Fraternal Nights. By doing this, we were able to tell the story of our Foundation and our Masonic Home to a larger group of people. Also, we could bring together all the bodies associated with Masonry for a night of fellowship. Where this was tried in the past year, it met with great success; and I hope that in the years to come this program will be continued. To each of you who served this past year thank you. Not only for myself, but for the entire body of Kansas Masonry. Grand Lecturers To the lecturers, from all of Kansas Masonry - thank you. Having had the privilege of serving with these brethren for some ten years, I know the amount of work involved in preparing for the Schools of Instruction. My only regret is that these men and their work are not more appreciated by the craft. If each of us brought the concentration and dedication to our Masonry that these men do, we would not have the problems we are having today. We, here in Kansas, are so fortunate to have this corps of learned brethren who are willing to travel to the four corners of the state to spread the light of our ritual. We are all indebted to you. My thanks to M:.W:. J. Fred Williamson and all those of you who have been so supportive of the District Lecturer program. I am convinced that this is a much needed program. Not to replace our Schools of Instruction or our Grand Lecturers, but to support and compliment what our Lecturers have been teaching us over the years. As I have said, there are many questions to be answered. We do need more brethren qualified to teach. Those who will follow as Grand Masters have signified that the program will continue. Ritual is not Masonry, make no mistake, but by our ritual we teach, we conduct our business, we confer our degrees, we tell the story of Masonry. To those of you who have participated in the past and to those of you now actively engaged in spreading the word - thank you. Kansas Masonry is indebted to you. The Kansas Mason The KANSAS MASON has long been a source of "what's happening" in Kansas Masonry. We have been blessed in the past with brethren who have given long hours to its publishing. To each of you who have been associated with this paper, we say thank you. A,t our last Annual Communication in Wichita you elected M:.W:. William Mcintosh as Grand Treasurer. Bill had been serving as editor of the KANSAS MASON and because of his increased responsibilities he tendered his resignation. We were sorry to lose him since he had done an excellent job, and he has our deepest appreciation. We were most fortunate in obtaining the services of Floyd E. (Gene) Ramsey as our new editor. Gene has had considerable experience in the publishing field and his work since assuming our editorship proves this. Gene, we wish you the best in the years to come. At some time in the future I would like to see the KANSAS MASON accept advertising. This would help defray the cost of printing and mailing which constitutes a big chunk of our annual budget - some $35,000. To do this would call for a change in our by-laws, but it is done by other jurisdictions and is perfectly legal. By doing this, we could increase the number of issues per year from four to six or even more. This is only a suggestion, and at some time the Council might look into it. Committees My hat is off to the brethren who staff our various committees. Theirs is truly a labor of love. They are the ones who toil so diligently in the background, the ones who are least rewarded for their efforts. It was certainly comforting to me this past year to know that I could fall back on this group of Masons when a knotty problem developed. My regrets are few, but I do regret that I failed to utilize this group of Masons as fully as I could have. Your dedication will always be remembered. past year.

Thank you for all your contributions this

Youth Groups During the past year I have had the honor of being received at the Grand Bethel Session, Order of Job's Daughters in Kansas City, Kansas, and by the State Conclave of De Molay at their sessions in Wichta. Due to a lack of communication, I missed the Kansas Grand Assembly, International Order of Rainbow for Girls, held in Wichita - for which I am truly sorry. At each session I attended, I was received with dignity and respect by these young people. It is a very satisfying feeling to know that these people will be our leaders in the years to come. We are in good hands!

But, brethren, they need your help. Not just monetary help - they need you, your talents, your time, your guidance. These youth groups are our future, and if we don't take an active interest in them now, how can we expect them to take an interest in the fraternity in the future? Participate in their meetings, invite them to present programs at your meetings, take a little time - get involved. And thanks to all of you who are participating in our youth programs now. Order of the Eastern Star It was a pleasure and an honor to attend your Grand Chapter Communication in Topeka last summer. Thank you for the courtesy and hospitality extended to Barbara and to me at this assembly. As a member of the Kansas Masonic Home Board for the past five years, I have had the privilege of serving with two of your Past Grand Matrons, Bernadine Russell and Louetta Secrest. Each have contributed much to the successful operation of our Home. Ladies, our thanks! Necrology During the past year, 1,883 of our brethren laid down their working tools and made that transition from time to eternity. Each in his own way contributed to Masonry each will be missed. To their families, we as a fraternity and as close friends, share in your grief and loss. To each, we extend our heartfelt sympathy. A fitting tribute to our departed brethren will be given later by M:.W:. Carroll C. Arnett, PGM, Chairman of our Necrology Committee. Kansas Masonic Foundation The Kansas Masonic Foundation, under the capable direction of Curtis Gary, Executive Officer, and Brother Don Horttor, President of the Board, is a shining example of Masonry's concern for those less fortunate than we. Again, a sizeable contribution was made to the Oncology program at K.U. Medical Center and we continued our program of student loans. However, we were unable to give as much as requested because the funds were not available. The only income to the Foundation is from interest derived from investments comprised of your contributions, your gifts, wills, trusts and estates. The Foundation's only means of growth is from your generous support. To realize its potential, the Foundation must have your helpOur Masonic Foundation is very fortunate to have the caliber of experience sitting as trustees and directors that we have. Money could not' begin to buy the expertise that is represented in this group of concerned brethren. Your contribution to the Foundation and to Masonry will never be forgotten, and you have our never-ending thanks. Grand Representatives It was my privilege this year to appoint the following brethren as Grand Representatives from the Grand Lodge of Kansas to other jurisdictions: Connecticut Queensland Spain Utah Washington

I charge each of you to stay in communication with those you represent. Service Recognition As has each Grand Master in the past, I have had the opportunity this year to recognize those brethren among us who have achieved the status of Elder Masons. This includes those who have served Masonry for 50 years, 60 years-plus, and on one occasion we opened Grand Lodge in Dwight, Kansas, to present a 75-year Pin to Brother Wilmer Erickson, a member of Dwight Lodge No. 374. We each serve Masonry in different ways - some by active participation, and some by the dignity of the way we live. But each, regardless of our involvement, come together as one because of the obligations we accepted at our altars. It is our sincere wish that each brother will wear his emblem with dignity, honor and pride, a symbol for the world to see of their years of dedicated service as a Master Mason.

May the Grand Master of the Universe grant to each of these honored brethren good health and prosperity, and may each of them continue to demonstrate the excellent tenets of our profession - brotherly love, relief and truth. My Reception Words will never be able to express the thanks and admiration I have for the brethren of Active Lodge No. 158. From the time of my appointment as Grand Senior Deacon to my final days as Grand Master, these brethren have been always ready to assist in any way and at any time. Many have travelled great distances with me, sharing in the tedium of long hours and driving. They took charge of my reception last spring and made it one of the outstanding receptions of all time. I will be forever indebted to the wives of the Past Masters of Active Lodge for donating their time and their cars to conduct the tour of the old homes of Atchison and for their genuine hospitality to all the guests. Tremendous thanks go to the ladies of the Social Order of Beauceants for their preparation and serving of the refreshments at the reception held in the Masonic Temple at Atchison. Our thanks to everyone - men and women - for all the hours of work they put in. Good people of Atchison, Barbara and I will be always indebted to you and we'll always remember your kindnesses. Kansas Masonic Home It has been my privilege to sit on the Masonic Home Board as an observer and as an active member during the last five years. In that time, the Home has made great progress under the capable direction of Jerry Lindenbaum and his highly professional staff. You may not be aware of the fact that our Home is second to none when it comes to Masonic Homes. Yet we find ourselves at a crossroads. Much criticism has been leveled against the Home. Its operation, the proposed long-range plans, the direction in which the Home is headed, the very integrity of those sitting on the Board - these questions have been raised in many places in the past year. At first we issued invitations to any and all to attend our Home Board meetings, to help us solve these problems. Unfortunately, those who were raising the questions could never attend. In October, the Past Masters were invited to Wichita to discuss the matter, since each of therr. had at one time or another been a member of the Board. From that meeting, the decision was made to appoint a committee to help give direction to the Home Board. This committee, under the very capable direction of Roger Seigel, was handed a formidable task. It is composed of brethren from all walks of life and literally from the four corners of the state, and it was charged with the responsibility of determining what the craft wants to do with the Masonic Home. The committee was given the authority to investigate the Home from top to bottom, to bring in their own CPA, if they wished, to check the financial aspects of the Home. What we are wanting from this committee which, incidentally, has no Past Grand Masters or current Grand Lodge officers sitting on it, is direction. A questionnaire has been sent to all lodge secretaries to be read at Stated Communications. In my report in the last issue of THE KANSAS MASON, From the Grand East, I talked of this committee and their task. In one way or another, we have tried to reach every member of the Grand Jurisdiction of Kansas. "If it is to belong to all, it must be the work of all." This committee will make known its recommendation at the present Grand Lodge session. From that report we will make decisions pertaining to our Home. I have nothing but praise and a heartfelt thanks for each who have been on or are now on the Masonic Home Board: John Murray, Forrest Haggard, Ralph Walker and J. Fred Williamson, all Past Grand Masters; Bernadine Russell and Louetta Secrest, both Past Worthy Grand Matrons of O.E.S.; the present Council of Administration consisting of R:.W:. Arris Johnson, D.G.M., Durward Danielson, G.S.W., Clifford Knauss, G.J.W., and W:. Bro. Claude Norris, G.S.D., sitting this year as observer; also to the four brethren who preceded me as President of the Board, M:.W:. F. Warren Starns in 1980, M:.W:. Ben Boyles in 1981, M:.W;. Robert Jackson in 1982 and M:.W:. Richard Porter in 1983. Each of these people contributed greatly of their time, talents and resources. They have been the targets of a lot of verbal abuse in the past. But, brethren, theirs is a devotion and a dedication that money could never buy. To each of you - thank you. The new fact-finding committee is to be commended for its diligence and its commitment. It is composed of the following brethren:

It is not my intention to obligate any future Grand Master to their course of action, but I do think the continuation of this committee or one similar in purpose to it, should be looked at as an integral asset to future Home Boards. KARE Radio and Staff I will be forever indebted to KARE Radio of Atchison, Kansas, and especially to its president and General Manager, William (Bill) Purkis. When H:.W:. F. Warren Starns appointed me as his Grand Senior Deacon, one of my first concerns was my position at KARE. After all, I did owe them forty hours a weekl After explaining what the appointment entailed and the amount of traveling that would be involved, especially as Grand Master, Bill urged me without any hesitation to take it - that time off would be no problem. To everyone at KARE- you have contributed much in making the last five years a treasured period of my life. Thanks to each of youl Other Grand Jurisdictions It was my pleasure to visit the Grand Lodges of Missouri and Colorado during this past year. At each communication I was received with all the dignity and courtesy one could wish for. My thanks to each of them for their gracious hospitality. Many other jurisdictions extended invitations to join them at their Annual Communications, but because of previous scheduling I was unable to accept. I regret this, since attending these communications is a rewarding experience. Here is an opportunity to meet others, compare notes, ask questions, observe their ritual and share in their accomplishments. On behalf of the Grand Lodge of Kansas and myself, thank you for your thoughtfulness. It was most appreciated. Consolidations Several lodges requested permission to consolidate with other lodges during this past year - they will be listed elsewhere in these proceedings. I granted permission for these consolidations with great reluctance. To me, a consolidation represents a failure and a loss. A failure of leadership, a failure of membership and, above all, a loss to the body of Masonry ... a loss of past hopes and dedication. However, I do realize that changing times - the mobility of our way of life, rising costs in the maintenance of our lodges - sometimes make consolidation the only answer. I, therefore, recommended and approved these consolidations with the.hope and prayer that each one would result in renewed dedications to the principles of our fraternity. Letters of Dispensation On the 16th of May, 1984, I granted Letters of Dispensation to Ark Valley Daylight Lodge U.D. These Letters will esQsire on or before the 21st of March, 1985, unless extended by the incoming Grand Master. Recommendations In the last issue of THE KANSAS MASON I listed five (5) recommendations that I intend to present to the Craft at the present communication of Grand Lodge. They are hereby reprinted, along with the reasons why I feel they should be adopted. I again admonish you to look well to your ballot. and vote for the best interests of Ancient Craft Masonry. 1.

By-law 3-416, SUNDAY CEREMONIES.


1984-85

Grand Lodge of Kansas

Reads at present: No Lodge Communication nor Masonic ceremony of any kind shall be held.or conducted on Sunday, except funeral ceremonies. Lodges of Sorrow, and celebrations of St. John's Day. PROVIDED, that nothing above shall be construed as preventing the Grand Master from convening a Special Communication of Grand Lodge whenever he deems it necessary for the welfare of the Fraternity. (Amended 1975.) Recommended change: No Lodge Communication nor Masonic ceremony of any kind shall be held or conducted on Sunday except funeral ceremonies. Lodges of Sorrow, celebrations of St. John's Day and Open installations of Lodge officers. PROVIDED that nothing above shall be construed as preventing the Grand Master from convening a Special Communication of Grand Lodge whenever he deems it necessary for the welfare of the Fraternity. Reason for change: Six lodges this year requested permission to hold Sunday installations. As Grand Master I, of course, denied that permission because of the wording of this By-law. Personally, I cannot see where the open installation of our officers on Sunday would in any way violate any moral laws of church or Masonry. It would certainly be one way to perhaps introduce Masonry to a larger public2.

By-law 4-127, CONDUCT OF BALLOT.

Reads at present: The ballot shall be under the supervision and control of the Master, and shall be inspected only by him and the Wardens. Every member shall vote, and the Master shall not entertain any excuse from voting, or motion to postpone the ballot, or to reconsider it. The result in all cases shall be declared by the Master, after which he shall immediately destroy the ballot before returning the ballot box to the Senior Deacon. Recommended change: The ballot shall be under the supervision and control of the Master, and shall be inspected only by him and the Wardens. Every member present shall vote, and the Master.shall not entertain any excuse from voting, or motion to postpone the ballot, or to reconsider it. The result in all cases shall be declared by the Master, after which he shall immediately destroy the ballot before returning the ballot box to the Senior Deacon. Reason for change: The present reading of the law could be interpreted to mean that every member of a lodge would be required to ballot. If this were enforced to the letter, it could certainly prove to be a detriment to the conferring of degrees. 3.

By-law 4-206, PROFICIENCY EXAMINATIONS.

Reads at present: The examination of a Candidate upon his proficiency shall be conducted while the Lodge is open on the degree previously attained by the Candidate. The vote of the Lodge upon the proficiency of the Candidate shall be taken with the Candidate excused and the Lodge open either on the same degree or on the next highest degree. (Amended 1967.) Recommended change: The examination of a Candidate upon his proficiency shall be conducted either in open Lodge on the degree previously attained by the Candidate, or by a committee of not less than three members of the Lodge appointed by the Master. The vote of the Lodge upon the proficiency of the Candidate shall be taken with the Candidate excused and the Lodge open either on the same degree or on the next highest degree. Reason for change: Some people are very self-conscious - very reluctant to speak before a large group - and having to recite from memory complicates the problem. If given an opportunity to prove up before a small committee, the person might be inclined to finish his work more quickly. This could be one reason why so many men never finish their work and might be a partial answer to our membership problem. 4.

By-law 4-213, WORK IN SEPARATE ROOMS.

Reads at present: time.

A Lodge cannot confer degrees in separate rooms at the same

Recommended change: A Lodge cannot confer degrees in separate rooms at the same time except by Special Dispensation from the Grand Master, in which case a Lodge may confer more than one degree at a time using separate rooms within the same Lodge building".

Proceetlings of the

March

Reason for change: Many of our Lodges meet in temples used by other Lodges as well as by our appendant bodies such as O.E.S., Beauceants, Scottish Rite, York Rite, DeMolay, Job's Daughters and Rainbow Girls. At times this presents a problem in scheduling work. Also, some of our Lodges have at times been in the enviable position of having more work than they could handle! The adoption of this change would alleviate some of these problems and in no way detract from the dignity of our work. 5. Recommendation: Each Lodge will be required to maintain a liability insurance policy as written through the Grand Lodge office unless other wise exempted by the Council of Administration. Reason: Far too many of our lodges carry no liability insurance at all. This is the principal reason that this recommendation will be made again this year at the Annual Communication in Wichita. This will be the insurance program which was presented a year ago. At that time the vote was in favor of the recommendation, but did not have the necessary two-thirds majority needed to carry it. One of the principal reasons given for its rejection was that the craft did not have the necessary time to study it in full. Since then, it has been discussed at our Area Meetings last spring. Also, the last issue of our KANSAS MASON printed an article written by our Grand Senior Warden, Durward Danielson, who was in the insurance profession before retirement, and Brother Gene West {Sunflower Lodge No. 86). This article explained the program in detail. If there are any questions pertaining to this program, you are urged to write to our Grand Secretary or to Brother Gene West. Grand Lodge Staff This group of people will always have a special place in my heart! They are the ones responsible for the day-to-day operation of Grand Lodge, the ones always ready to fill an order, trace an elusive bit of information, locate a "lost" brother - the list goes on and on. Each of us is deeply indebted to this talented corps of employees headed by our Grand Secretary. I, in particular, am indebted to them because without their cooperation, help and understanding it would have been a long, long year! To R:.W:. Albert O. Arnold (or "Old Dutch" as some call him!) and to each of his staff: Jean Rader, Rachael Gilbert, Hal Horton, "Jack" Werner and Arlene Mahrle - it has been a great pleasure and an honor to work with you. Thanks from the bottom of my heart! Rulings 1. Prior to being installed as Grand Master last March, I was asked to approve a program whereby a brother would work, obtain proficiency cards in the Blue Lodge, and receive as a reward his dues paid into one of our appendant bodies. From this request one would think the brother placed the appendant bodies above the Blue Lodge! I do not approve of this thinking nor did I approve the request. I value my memberships in the York Rite and the Scottish Rite as well as in the Shrine. But, while each one plays a very important part in Masonry and each has contributed much to the fraternity, they are still but appendant bodies and, as such, are not to be rated above the Blue Lodge. 2. A lodge requested permission to sponsor a Little League baseball team. this to be in violation of our By-law 3-501.

I ruled

3. A lodge informed us they had sponsored a Little League baseball team and wanted to have the story placed in THE KANSAS MASON. I wrote to the Master and Secretary informing them that they were in violation of By-law 3-501, and that while I hoped this was an oversight on their part, if they persisted, charges would be leveled against them. 4. One district wanted, by means of paying a large fee for the rights to do so, to . promote an All-Masonic Night at a baseball tournament. This, of course, was mis-use of lodge funds. Permission was denied. 5. A request was made to allow the Square and Compass to be inscribed on the Tshirts to be given to members of the Kansas All-Masonic Band. After discussing the propriety of this with the Council of Administration, I ruled that this would not be in keeping with the meaning of the Square and Compass, and denied permission.

6. It came to my attention that one of our lodges had a bingo license and was conducting bingo games on a regular basis. After inquiring, I found that they did have a license and were actively involved in promoting bingo. This certainly does nothing to enhance the image of Masonry - in that town or elsewhere. I wrote the Master and Secretary of the lodge ordering them to return the license to the issuing agency and to discontinue all games of chance in their lodge. This has been done. 7. This question was raised by one lodge: If a man is arrested for DWI and found guilty, is this to be considered a mere traffic violation, or is it to be considered a crime? M:.W:. Robert Caplinger, Chairman of our Jurisprudence Committee, issued the following statement: "DWI is a crime and would be an offense against the body of Masonry under ARTICLE IX, Section 4, of the Constitution of the Grand Lodge of Kansas, which provides, among other things, as follows, to wit: *Every Mason who shall willfully violate ... the laws of the country in which he resides — shall be guilty of an offense against the body of Masonry...* The constitution makes no distinction between types of laws". It is my observation that we could save ourselves a lot of headaches and.ill-feelings if we would just check our By-laws. If there is the slightest doubt as to the legality or validity of any action, check first with the Grand Secretary. He is quite familiar with the laws and can probably answer your questions without any further action. If there is doubt in his mind, he will forward the question to the Grand Master who will, in turn, obtain a ruling from the Jurisprudence Committee. Believe me, this will save a lot of embarrassment later on! Appendant Bodies I have had the pleasure this past year of being invited to many of your meetings. In April we attended the Scottish Rite Workshop in Wichita and also the Grand Chapter and Grand Council sessions in Salina. In May we attended the Grand Commandary K.T. in Concordia where I was given the opportunity to inspect the troops. That was a switch - in the past, I've always been the inspectee, not the inspector! Then in September I was a guest of the Grand Encampment K.T., South Central Region Department Conference at Wichita. Thanks to the Shrine Temples in Kansas for offering to pay part of my expenses to the Supreme Council Session in Boston - I regret that time and scheduling did not permit me to accept your offer. Barbara and I appreciate very much the courtesy and hospitality extended to us at your Annual Shrine All-Star High School Football Game in Manhattan. Our personal thanks to W:. Bro. and Noble Frank Seufert and his wife, Sally, for being our host and hostess at this event. They were magnificent! I commend each of our appendant bodies for their contributions to Masonry. It waswith great regret that we learned of the death of Paul Thomas, Grand Illustrious Grand Master of the Grand Council of Cryptic Masons of Kansas, and O. Dale Mack, Potentate of Isis Shrine Temple in Salina, this past year. They are missed. Conclusion There are so many people I would like to thank for the past year, and to recognize for their contributions to the fraternity, but time and space won't permit it. But I do thank all of you and I shall be forever indebted to you. However, closing this report, there are two people I must recognize and thank. First, M:.W:. F. Warren Starns for appointing me to be his Grand Senior Deacon. I don't know why you selected me with all the other qualified Masons available! But thank you, and thank you for all the counseling and guidance you have offered these past years, and for the hospitality you and Lois have extended to Barbara and me. M: .W: . Sir, I hope I have lived up to your expectations! Finally, my thanks, my appreciation, my love to my wife, Barbara, for always being there, for listening with quiet understanding when I was most frustrated, and for always having a word of congratulation when things went well. Thank you. By the way, I'll fix that faucet next week!

Proceedings of the

March

In the installation ceremony of lodge officers, we charge the brethren of the lodge with the following: Such is the nature of our Constitution that some must of necessity rule and teach, so others must, of course, learn to submit and obey. Humility, in both, is an essential duty. Tomorrow we install our new Grand Master. It is my wish that we accord to him all the respect and dignity his station deserves. I pledge to him and to his elected and appointed officers my cooperation and my dedication to his program and, above all, my sincere desire that his will be a happy and successful year. Brethren, our craft is good, our calling honorable. Our brethren of the past have given us a wonderful heritage. What happens to Masonry next year and the years after that is our responsibility. I have told the story many times this past year of the bird called Freemasonry that we each hold in our hand. And the question is asked one more time - is this bird dead or alive? Brethren — as you so will it, so will it be. Thank you for the past five years, and may God bless each one of you. Lawrence D. Winegardner .Grand Master

Because of his familiarity with the situation, the position of Grand Junior Steward was changed permitting W:. Larry Algott to act as Marshal and Brother Erwin Scott to act as Grand Junior Steward. The brethren then proceeded to the staging site of the parade which promptly led off at 2:00 P.M. The parade had more than 54 units, including equestrian, cars, floats depicting old time scenes of the community, and many of the citizens of Westmoreland and Pottawatomie were dressed in the fashion circa 1880's. At the site, the county officials, commissioners past and present, were introduced. The Hon. Jim Slattery, United States Congressman, addressed the group briefly. Following other introductions and responses, and other political figures, the history of Pottawatomie Courthouse was given, followed by the ancient cornerstone ceremony.

Our Grand Master in his opening remarks noted the Cornerstone Ceremony is the same as was used by George Washington in laying the cornerstone at the nation's capitol in Washington, D.C., and at the Statue of Liberty, the Washington Monument, and the original ceremony of the Pottawatomie Courthouse. This near ideal day was in good.part responsible for a very large crowd, and many old friends were seen greeting each other for the first time in many years. Stories were exchanged and recalled as the brethren reminisced about their various experiences in connection with the county seat and county courthouse. It was duly noted that the original cornerstone had been placed by the Masons .on September 4, 1884. At that time the cost of the courthouse was $10,000. Light refreshments were served inside the courthouse at the conclusion of the program. No further business appearing. Grand Lodge was closed in Ample Form on the First Degree of Masonry.

to be twenty-five Kansas lodges represented, and one California lodge. The brethren then formed in procession to the cornerstone site where the following progretm was given: Invocation - Grand Chaplain Presentation of Vtorking Tools - Vernon L. Bolinder, WM, Alta Vista Lodge No. 357 Declaration of Consecration - Grand Master Introductions - Norman W. Loomis, DDGM Welcome - Hon. Dennis Buchman, Mayor, Alta Vista History of Lodge - Bro.R. S. Nelson and Bro. Hugo Simonton Address - Grand Master Benediction - Grand Chaplain The history proved to be a very interesting and heart-warming saga of events that had transpired since the beginning of Pike City, then Cable City, and the name was changed yet a third time to Alta Vista. The Chicago and Nebraska Railroad contributed immeasur. ably to the founding of this city. The brethren and ladies then returned inside the lodge hall where the Grand Master addressed the audience calling on several for remarks concerning the history and the construction of this new temple. W: . Vernon L. Bolinder, Vtorshipful Master, was cited time and again for his untiring efforts in making possible the erection of this new temple. In turn. Brother Bolinder highly complimented all of those who had assisted in clearing the debris from the destructive fire that had taken the original lodge building, the donation of their time and talents, and efforts in behalf of this project. He further noted that although they did receive payment from the insurance on the building, almost double the amount was necessary to complete the project. This meant funds had to be borrowed. But he was happy to report they almost received enough in contributions to cancel the mortgage. The furniture of the lodge came from the old Maple Hill Lodge, and several other donations. This beautiful and functional little lodge is sure to serve the community and Freemasonry for many, many years to come. The brothers, their ladies, and their friends were then invited a short distance north of the lodge building to the American Legion building, for a beautiful and delicious pot-luck dinner. The quality and quantity of food and desserts were certainly without equal. This was a beautiful fall day in Kansas, and contributed to a very large turnout, and the very great interest of the citizens of Alta Vista in this project. The Grand Master closed the Grand Lodge in Ample Form. Lawrence D. Winegardner Grand Master ATTEST: Albert O. Arnold, Jr. Grand Secretary

Preceding the opening of Grand Lodge, the Grand Lodge officers and officers of the lodge were treated to a very fine noon luncheon at the lodge hall. The brethren, friends, and ladies then assembled in their cars and proceeded to Hanston, Kansas, where a grand procession was formed. The following program was presented at the dedication and cornerstone site: Welcome - [)eanna Bowie, President, Board of Education Flag Presentation - W: . Walter F. Stueckemann, on behalf of U.S. Senator Bob Dole Recognition of Memorials - N. Eugene Zimmer, High School Principal W:.

A crowd estimated in excess of 500 persons was on hand. Fortunately the brief snow flurries of the night before had given way to gentle breezes and sunny skies. The temperature was crisp, however, but did not dampen the ardor and enthusiasm of the school officials, the citizens of the community and, indeed, the Grand Lodge officers. Following the ceremony the Grand Lodge officers and their ladies and the citizens of Hanston were given a personal tour of the new facility. It is modern and up-to-date in every respect, and certainly will provide many years of progressive education in this small but vibrant community. The Hanston Junior-Senior High School Student Council then invited all of the Grand Lodge officers, friends and guests to attend their annual Beef Feed at the Hanston Grade School but a short distance from this site. Here again, a very fine and delicious dinner was served, appropriately called a "beef feed". This is an annual affair supported by the businesses and citizens of Hanston, Kansas. All in all a fine, enjoyable affair with the citizens of Hanston and the school officials, including the faculty, expressing their sincerest appreciation for this ceremony.

Prior to the opening of Grand Lodge, the brethren were served a steak dinner in the dining hall of the lodge at 6:00 P.M.

He was most appreciative of the honor, and commended the lodge and 'its members very highly in their efforts of refurbishing the lodge. Noting that after the fire it seemed all was lost, but once again it had risen from the ashes - much like the phoenix - and would again serve its members and the community. W:. Edward L.

REPORT OF THE GRAND TREASURER

M:.W:. William P. Mcintosh, PGM, Grand Treasurer, presented the Treasurer's Report which, on his motion, was accepted and made a part of the minutes. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. s A.M. of Kansas: I am priviledged to give my first report as Grand Treasurer of this Grand Lodge. While the entire report of the Auditor is printed on this and following pages, I would like to point out what I deem to be some of the salient features. We ended the year in what I would conservatively call "fair" financial condition, although our net gain of some S30,000 for the year fell $50,000 short of the $83,000 net gain of last year. Knowing that the roof of the Grand Lodge building will need a major overhaul in what we hope might yet be a few years away, we have set aside $30,000 in a contingency fund for that purpose. This provision you will find listed under Liabilities in Exhibit E of the Auditor's report. One highlight I would especially like to point out is that we are now a million dollar institution with total assets of $1,016,651. This, I might add, is only the book value. The market value of our holdings would be in excess of that figure. A few attention getters from the report: Our per capita tax fell about $56,000 from 1983, and was 525,000 below the budgeted amount for 1984. Raising Fees were $1,000 less than the preceding year. The total income of $444,662 of the Grand Lodge was $7,000 short of the budgeted amount. On the other hand, our expenses were not as great as budgeted either, spending $34,000 less. Contributing to this figure were: Wages - $5,000 less; Masonic Education Committee - $3,500 less; Grand Master's Automobile Fund - $4,000 less; and Printing and Mailing of the KANSAS MASON - $15,000 less than proposed. It also cost about $6,000 less to heat and provide electricity for our Grand Lodge building in 1984 than we anticipated. Again, all of these differences enabled us to have a net gain of some $30,000. We sold our shares of Nabisco Common Stock, as it turned out, maybe a trifle .early. Still we realized a gain of $5,000 in the sale. We have temporary investments of $100,000 in both the First National Bank of Topeka and the Merchants National Bank. The following is the report of the Auditor: In accordance with standard accounting and audit procedures, I have audited the Grand Lodge records for the period February 1, 1984, through January 31, 1985. The records were maintained on the cash method of accounting. The results are reflected in the following exhibits: Exhibit Exhibit Exhibit Exhibit Exhibit Exhibit Exhibit

REPORT OF THE GRAND SECRETARY R:.W:. Albert O. Arnold, Jr., Grand Secretary, gave the following report which, on his motion, was received and referred to the Reports of Grand Officers Committee. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: As required in our Constitution and By-laws (ARTICLE VI, Section 9 and 2-110 and 2-111) this report is submitted. Please do take special note of the tabulation of disbursements, also the estimation of income and expenses at the conclusion of this report. Annual Reports As you will note, again we were unable to complete the statistical report of the Lodges due to a number of them failing to make report as required in our laws, which states "on or before the 10th of January". Storms and severe cold weather again struck our state shortly after the beginning of the new year. With this in mind, I did ask the Grand Master for permission to extend the reporting time until the 31st of January, 1985. Even this did not help the situation. Too often you have heard me address you on this subject. We were advised on several occasions to apply to the Worshipful Masters of the several Lodges in question, as it is their duty to "set the craft to work". Also noting this is a "law, rule and regulation" and to so advise, but sadly I report our situation in this area has worsened. The loss of credentials has had little effect. Some change must be made in our laws to counteract this increasing problem. Per Capita Tax Several Lodges reported having forwarded notice of dues which separated the per capita tax. I believe this is in violation of By-law 2-301 which says in part: "The per capita tax shall not be assessed against the members, but shall be included in the amount for annual dues". Several Lodges have amended their Lodge Laws to the effect their dues would be for a sura plus the per capita tax. Even that is subject to review. Several Lodges reported problems with paying their per capita tax. This should not be; for when 1984 dues were collected, so was the per capita tax. You should not have to pay 1984 per capita tax from dues collected in 1985. Taxation We have received fewer calls this year regarding Form 990 and year. To be sure, we still do have them and when a problem does assistance. A word of caution - always keep a dated copy of any with the particular taxing authority in question. Also, be sure or letters from tax authorities. This is most important.

other tax problems this arise, please ask for and all correspondence to answer any question

Dual/Plural Memberships Again, I bring this to your attention. These memberships should not be a problem if the Lodge secretary would just communicate with your Grand Lodge office. All jurisdictions having dual/plural memberships have reporting laws similar to our own. This requires notification through the Grand Secretary's office. This past year we found a Brother who had membership in seven other jurisdictions. He was in violation in four of those without the slightest notion of his situation. Seventeen letters and four long distance phone calls solved the problem, but not his feelings. This Brother holds a PHD in education, is a commissioned officer who has been stationed in many foreign countries - just the type to enthusiastically promote and support Masonry. But today he is less than interested - all because of a lack of communication. There were others during the year, several within our own jurisdiction. Again, hard feelings and strong words - all of which could have been avoided by a letter or call to the Grand Lodge office. Financial Statement Last year I did ask for and receive permission to ask for financial statements from all Lodges. Our concern centered around that portion of the District Deputy report which states: "Cash in bank and on hand". Literally this did not cover the entire fi-

nances of some Lodges. This was further augmented by reports that Lodges might be siibject to examinations by the Internal Revenue Service. Naturally the possibility of having these facts compared with such information as we retain at your Grand Lodge office caused concern. As a point of information, two Lodges were examined by Internal Revenue. Fortunately, as of reporting time, all appears well and without problems. Still, this can happen to any Lodge. So keep your records in good order and report changes immediately to us. Computer Systems Last sxanmer I was instructed by our Grand Master to meet with our Home Administrator, Brother Jerry Lindenbaum, and others, to examine the combining of our computer work through one unit. The Home consultant called in several experts as well as factory representatives A careful examination revealed that the Grand Lodge required much more time and information than that of our Home. Our requirements were estimated to be in the neighborhood of three to four times as great as required by the Home. Further^ our.requirements as compared with the Home were quite different. It was concluded that this marriage would not be financially advantageous. At first glance this defies logic. Yet on closer examination, we found that our commercial firm can actually produce at a much cheaper rate owing to the fact that they have the advantage of combining with other clients and thus can operate their equipment twenty-four hours a day. Grand Lodge Library and Museum We are always pleased to accept donations to the Library/Museum or to display them for the benefit of all. Items continue to be received to the extent we would be happy to learn of some reasonably priced display cabinets. The following items were donated or loaned this past year: Former books of M:.W:.

Estimation of Income and Expenses A short time ago, after much deliberation, our Grand Master wisely elected to appoint a committee to investigate the financial problems we have been e^eriencing at our Kansas Masonic Home. My instructions were to assist this committee in forwarding a questionnaire to the membership through their respective lodges. My further instructions were that this was to be distributed to Grand Lodge officers and Past Grand Lodge officers, but they were not to be members of this committee. Regardless of planning, a number of questions were directed to me as Grand Secretary and did relate directly to the Grand Lodge Budget. The one most often asked: "how much do we allow the Home from our per capita tax?" By-law 2-301 says, in part, $1.50. And it has so stated since 1963. That leaves $4.50 for the other expense of Grand Lodge: mileage and per diem to Lodge Representatives, the KANSAS MASON, allowances- to Lecturers, postage and mailing, and the other operations of your Grand Lodge office. The other items are listed on the following pages. One of the other questions asked, frankly, shocked me. Details of the question I do not believe are necessary, but here is the answer: The Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas is an unincorporated association 501 (c) 10. The Kansas Masonic Home is a non-profit corporation 501 (c) 3. The Kansas Masonic Foundation is a non-profit corporation 501 (c) 3. From a legal standpoint, we are three separate entities. Now as to the use of the other funds, you can read as well as the next person, and we certainly hope that you do so. You will also find a complete listing of every check drawn on the treasury this past year. This, I believe, is one of a kind. Personally, I do not know of any other organization requiring a listing of each check. The estimation accompanying this report was constructed with the assistance of our Grand Treasurer, the Finance Committee and the Council of Administration. This year I have asked for and received permission to change the format of the estimation. You will note we are listing last year's estimation and the new year budget on the same page. You will also note marks designating changes. Your questions are certainly invited. Appreciation Each year at this time and as I conclude my report, I have the great fear that my words will sound bland and redundant. Yet, if you too experienced first-hand the many acts we witness each and every year - as the various members of committees go about their duties - I am sure you would agree with my conclusions. The committee chairmen and members all perform a very valuable and necessary part of our Fraternal operation. This year has been particularly difficult for our staff. A re-evaluation of our various duties had been studied for several months. However, the timing of the change came about in an unexpected way and was far ahead of any planning. Yet the staff took it all in stride and in a very proud manner extended themselves far beyond any call of duty. Proudly we commend them to you: Rachael Gilbert, Arlene Mahrle, Jack Werner, my personal secretary and right hand - Jean Rader, and the newest member of the team, R:.W:. Halbert G. Horton. To our Grand Master, What a pleasure and honor to serve with this fine gentleman and dedicated Mason. To the Council of Administration, a big thank you to this fine group of hard working members of Kansas Masonry. Finally and as ever, my sincerest thanks and appreciation to each one of you for allowing me to serve you in this officeFraternally submitted, Albert O. Arnold, Jr. Grand Secretary

Proceedings of the

March

OTHER INTRODUCTIONS The Area Deputy Grand Masters and the District Deputy Grand Masters were asked to respond to the roll as called by R:.W:. Albert O. Arnold, Jr., Grand Secretary. The Grand Master expressed his sincere appreciation of the many hours these brethren spent during the past year in fulfilling their masonic duties, and thanked them for the help and support which they extended to him. The Grand Lecturers and District Lecturers were introduced and recognized for the very valuable duties they performed for the Grand Lodge and Freemasonry.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT M:.W:. Vern Schneider, Grand Master of Missouri, extended greetings from the 90,000 Masons of the Grand Jurisdiction of Missouri, and thanked the brethren for the many courtesies extended to him during this Grand Lodge Annual Communication.

INSURANCE PROGRAM M:.W:. L. D. Winegardner introduced W:. Gene West to the brethren, and advised that Bro. West would be available in the Crystal Room to discuss the proposed insurance coverage with any of the lodge representatives and members present.

TELLERS APPOINTED The Grand Master announced that the Area Deputy Grand Masters had been appointed as Tellers, and instructed them to distribute ballots to those brethren entitled to vote.

REPORT OF THE COUNCIL OF ADMINISTRATION R: .W:. Albert O. Arnold, Jr., Secretary to the Council, presented the following report which, on his motion, was accepted for printing in the Annual Proceedings. To the M: .W: . Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: The first meeting of the new Council was held immediately following the close of our Annual Communication on Saturday afternoon, March 17, 1984. M: .W: . Lawrence D. Winegardner was nominated for President. The nomination was duly seconded and unanimously .carried. R:.W:. Arris Johnson was nominated for Vice-President. After second of said nomination, he was unanimously elected. Kaw Valley State Bank was named as Depository for the Grand Lodge funds. Several charity cases, over and above those handled through the Kansas Masonic Home, were reviewed and approved. Several waivers of jurisdiction were granted, and several were accepted from other jurisdictions. An annuity retirement plan was accepted to replace the current retirement plan. This action is two-fold in purpose; (1) to effect a savings for Grand Lodge, and (2) to provide additional coverage. Investigation of a Lodge was ordered by the Grand Master to determine the ability of said Lodge to continue to function as prescribed in our Laws and, further, to determine if this Lodge could pay its bills including taxes. A Lodge was ordered to forfeit a bingo license - this being contrary to the laws and practices of this Grand Jurisdiction. A request to hold a Masonic Night at a ball park was declared in violation of By-law 3-608 by our Grand Master. A contract with Townsend Glass Company of Topeka was approved. This is to replace eleven windows immediately adjacent to the office area of the Grand Lodge.


1984-85

Grand Lodge of Kansas

A contract to repair the roof of the Grand Lodge was submitted. The price of $96,000 plus license fees and taxes, was unanimously rejected. The Grand Secretary was instructed to resubmit requests for additional bids. The Grand Secretary was instructed to divide the operating capital into two additional accounts at the Merchants National Bank and First National Bank of Topeka to avoid, as much as possible, having accounts over-and-above the F.D.I.C. coverage. Many questions and inquiries regarding insurance coverage had been received. The Grand Senior Warden was requested to make further study and investigation, and thereafter submit an article to be published in the KANSAS MASON giving explanations and clarification of certain parts of the Plan. Several cases were reviewed and referred to the Committee on Trials and Punishment. A number of requests concerning remodeling and new contruction were referred to the Committee on Temple Building and Remodeling. Four recognized Grand Jurisdictions, within the United States, withdrew recognition. Fortunately, a short time later, grievances were healed and normal relation? restored. A possible change of mailing dates for the KANSAS MASON was discussed - this with an eye to the addition of a fifth yearly publication directly concerned with the Annual Communication. The Grand Master reported appointing a special "Masonic Home Committee". This committee is composed of various members from across the jurisdiction and does not include Grand Lodge officers or Past Grand Masters. The Grand Secretary will assist with mailings or other activities of the committee when requested. A special meeting had been called to interview applicants for the editorship of our KANSAS MASON. This resulted in the naming of W:. Floyd E. (Gene) Ramsey as editor. The Grand Secretary was given permission to forward the $1.50 per-capita portion and the $5.00 raising fee to the Home. He also received authorization to complete the total by phone solicitation of those unreported Lodges. The several overdrawn accounts were reviewed and approved, noting that this would still mean the over-all budget remained within the total limits approved at the last Annual Communication. Any balance remaining in the account was to be set aside for roof replacement - this due to the much higher cost than anticipated, and a further hope that replacement can be accomplished without invading interest bearing investments. Other activities, actions, and further report of several items already listed, are given further treatment and report elsewhere in this Advanced Report. Fraternally submitted, Albert O. Arnold, Jr. Secretary to the Council

LABOR TO REFRESHMENT M:.W:. Lawrence D- Winegardner called the Grand Lodge from Labor to Refreshment until 1:30 P.M.

AWARDS PROGRAM The 1985 Awards Program was presided over by R:.W:. Arris M. Johnson, Deputy Grand Master, assisted by the Ritualistic Committee and other Grand Lodge Officers, Immediately upon returning from a luncheon in the Shrine Mosque, R:.W:. Johnson called the meeting to order, and proceeded with the presentation of the following Awards:

YOUTH GROUPS

M:.W:. Lawrence D. winegardner introduced and presented to the Grand Lodge assen¹led the following representatives of the Masonic Youth Groups who extended greetings from their orders: DeAun Parker - Grand Bethel Honored Queen . International Order Job's Daughters of Kansas Lawna Bass

- Grand Worthy Advisor of Kansas to the Grand Assembly, International Order of Rainbow for Girls

Darrell E. Spain - State Master Councillor, State Chapter of Kansas, Order of DeMolay The Grand Master thanked the youth group representatives for their presence and for their appropriate remarks. He encouraged all lodges to enthusiastically support these groups, particularly with active interest in them. M:.W:. Lawrence D. Winegardner then introduced Doris Norden, Worthy Grand Matron, Order of Eastern Star, and Darrel Miller, Worthy Grand Patron, Order of Eastern Star, who received a very warm reception from the brethren in attendance.

REFRESHMENT TO LABOR The Grand Lodge was called from Refreshment to Labor at 2r00 P.M. and the Business Sessions of the One Hundred Twenty-ninth Annual Communication resumed.

REPORT OF THE KANSAS MASONIC HOME ADMINISTRATOR Brother Jerry D. Lindenbaum, Administrator of the Kansas Masonic Home, gave the following report which, on his motion, was accepted. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. s A.M. of Kansas: I would like to start my annual report on an upbeat note this year. The Home was facing a $400,000 loss in July of this year. I am happy to report that we ended the year on a much better note. Our audit is being done at the time of this writing, but the unaudited figure shows a $65,500 net loss for the year. This is quite a turnaround from just the four months previous. Although the Home's fund balances stayed virtually the same as they did in 1983, the experiences of this past summer has brought new light and heightened awareness of how much we depend upon the support from Kansas Masonry. The steps we have taken and the steps the Board are comtemplating, will hopefully put an end to being in such tenuous circumstances in the future. Only by working together with the Home staff, the Home Board and the Body of Kansas Masonry, will we be able to insure our safety and long term survival. I call upon all of the Kansas Masonry to deeply evaluate their commitment and obligations to their elderly Brothers and Sisters. You, the members of Grand Lodge and Grand Chapter are the only ones who can make a difference. The Hard Work is just beginning, with many difficult tasks ahead in 1985. Through our shared loyalty and love, our Great Order will make the right choice. Repairs and Replacements Our regular program of repairs and maintenance has been followed this year. The most pressing problem is roof repair over the East and West Corridors, along with the Residential building project.

Health Care Center We received our State licensure and Medicaid and Medicare certification in November. I want to take this time to thank Mrs. Vera Wilson and her staff for their continued efforts to be the best Health Care Center facility in Kansas. We have many fine, dedicated people in this unit and Kansas Masonry should be proud of their work. Also, with regret, 1 want to announce Mrs. Wilson's retirement in February after nine excellent years of service. We all thank Mrs. Wilson for her leadership and dedication. Mrs. Karole Morris, Assistant Director of Nursing, will be promoted to Director of Nursing when Vera Wilson retires. WORTHY GRAND MATRON'S PROJECT The project of Sister Doris Norden, Worthy Grand Matron of the Order of the Eastern Star of Kansas, this year was the funding of air flotation mattresses, electronic

West Side Residential Our West Side Residents and staff enjoyed a very nice year, culminating with a fantastic Christmas Season. Also this year, Mrs. Evelyn Layman retired after ten years of dedicated service. Mrs. Judy Dvorak was hired as Adult Supervisor upon Evelyn's retirement, and has taken ahold very well.

•Denotes comparison to previous fiscal year reports.

Wilbur Love I recall with great sadness the passing of Brother Wilbur Love on June 23rd. death was most unexpected and his loss is remembered. W e , at the Home, as does Masonry throughout Kansas, have a deep love for this Brother. We miss him greatly. Home Health Agency The Kansas Masonic Home - Home Health Agency has now completed its second full fiscal year of operation. TWO thousand nine hundred fifty-five Medicare visits were made this past year to residents of Sedgwick County under the direction of their physician. Our Home Health Agency also serves Medicaid patients, private pay patients, other third party insurance, and we also participate in the Home and Community Based Program through Social and Rehabilitation Services (SRS). Services that we provide those individuals who need skilled care in their homes are: Skilled Nursing, Physical Therapy, Speech Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Social Services and Home Health Aides. We have looked at expanding our home health services this year to other parts of the State so that we can be of service to more of our Brothers and Sisters. We are still investigating this possibility at the present time. There has been an additional growth of home health agencies across the state and

the majority of larger hospitals now have a home health agency. We are seeing patients dismissed from the hospital in a shorter period of time and require some short term skilled care in their homes. We hope to see the Kansas Masonic Home - Home Health Agency grow this coming year and as always, our ultimate goal is to reach out and serve our Brothers and Sisters. Respectfully submitted by Bonnie Wyckoff, Administrator of the Kansas Masonic Home - Home Health Agency. Development Office Report The date was January 28, 1891. That day is forever in the annals of this Grand Body as well as those of the Grand Chapter of the Order of the Eastern Star. For it was on that day the Worthy Grand Matron, Lillian A. Wiggs, appointed a committee for the purpose of founding a Masonic Home. The proceedings of the Grand Chapter in 1891 have this momentus event so aptly recorded. "January 28th, 1891 - Appointed Brothers Alfred Whitman, William Julien and D. C. Welch a committee to represent this Grand Body at the Grand Lodge in regard to an Orphans' Home. In no respect is the advancing manhood and womanhood of our age more plainly shown than in the readiness of response to the cry of the orphan and widow, and no more enduring .monxoments of fraternal love are building today than these retreats where loving hands minister to the wants of the distressed. Surely the efforts of our own jurisdiction need but to be crystallized by plan and purpose to accomplish this most desirable object. I would bespeak for the committee your hearty co-operation." At the annual communication of this Grand Lodge on February 18-19, 1891, the M:.W:. Grand Master appointed a similar committee and the rest is Kansas Masonic history. The principles by which we, as Masons, live and have obligated ourselves, are those by which The Kansas Masonic Home was founded and by which it exists today. As long as these principles continue to be followed, the Masonic Home will continue to be the means by which we fulfill our promise to take care of worthy distressed Brothers and their Widows. Long Range Master Plan The priority for the long range plan continues to be the implementation of the First Phase of the overall Master Plan. Many Brothers and Sisters are awaiting the completion of the new, modern retirement center before moving to the Kansas Masonic Home. They are very strong in their desire to live here, but not until newer accomodations are available. At some point that may be sooner than we want, the reality of our own retirement will need to be tackled head on. The question we must ask ourselves will be whether or not we would retire at the Masonic Home in residential accomodations built for the 1930's style of living? Most of us would not choose that for ourselves but we might be faced with that choice unless we work together to insure that the First Phase of the Long Range Plan is a success. Communication With The Craft communicating with the lodges and chapters through the State continues to be a very high priority. We have traveled to many lodges and chapters but still we are not able to get our message to enough people. The joint Fraternal Night meetings between the Masons and Eastern Star have helped see more people in fewer trips, but compared to the total membership, we still see too few. It is hoped that these District and/or Area wide meetings will continue to be a part of your calendar. Through these visitations, our articles in the KANSAS MASON, and the communications that will be sent to each Masonic Home Committee, we hope to bring a better understanding of the Masonic Home and its true mission...to help worthy distressed Brother Master Masons and their Widows, and our Eastern Star Brothers and Sisters.

Area/District Deputy Meeting The M:.W:. Grand Master again held his meeting with the incoming Area and District Deputies at the Kansas Masonic Home on February 2, 1985. We at the Masonic Home are most pleased to help in this important session and to provide these many Brothers with tours and important information about the Home. Masonic Home Benefit Auction The Second Annual Masonic Home Auction to benefit the Grand Master's Endowment Fund was held on May 19, 1984. A little over $9,000 was raised, bringing the two year total to just over $28,000 from the annual event. In 1985 we will need donated items to be auctioned during the event. Grand Master's Home Endowment Fund At the end of fiscal year 1984 which ended November 30, the total dollars contributed to the Grand Master's Home Endowment Fund topped the $200,000 mark since its inception in 1983. Each time a mailing is conducted, we have noticed the size of the individual gifts becoming larger (average gift approximately $75 - $100). In order to help the fund grow, ask others in your lodges and other Masonic Groups to contribute. Also, consider increasing your contributions. Pilgrimage of Thanksgiving The Third Annual Pilgrimage of Thanksgiving was held at the Masonic Home on November 3rd, 10th and 17th, 1984. A total of 542 visitors from Lodges and Star Chapters from all across the State visited during the annual open house. Special guests included the M:.W:. Grand Master and the Worthy Grand Matron as well as several Past Grand Masters and Matrons, Grand Lodge and Grand Chapter Officers. Special Projects Several special projects were completed or continued in 1984. Examples of these projects are as follows: 1. 2.

Air Purifier Fund - Machines to take the odor out in the Health Care Center. Worthy Grand Matron's Project - 4 Lapidus Air Flotation Units, 1 Peristalic IV Pump 2 Filac Electronic Thermometers all for the Health Care Center, 3.

These examples of your unfailing generosity are deeply appreciated. 5. New Building Fund - Pledges and cash gifts toward the New Residence Center. Souvenir Sales In September, 1984, we began making several items available for purchase with the *^"Sas Masonic Home logo. As we traveled the State, these items were displayed for purchase by those in attendance. After the expense of each trip, the net proceeds, if any, were added to the Home's Endowment Fund. The items are Key Tags, Buttons, License Plates, Ball Caps and Shriner Weepuls. These" are still for sale through the Development Office. An order form is included in the KANSAS MASON for purchasing items by mail. If you haven't ordered your Masonic Home souvenir as yet, do so and wear them proudly to tell everyone that "I support the Kansas Masonic Home".

REPORT OF THE MASONIC HOME FACT FINDING COMMITTEE R:.W:. Roger S. Seigel, Chairman, presented the report of the Masonic Home Pact Finding Committee which, on his motion, was accepted. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. s A.M. of Kansas: The Masonic Home Fact Finding Committee makes the following report. We thank the Grand Master for addressing the problems facing our Masonic Home and for forming this committee to look into these problems. The committee formed several subcommittees to look into the various aspects of the operation of the Home. The committee decided not to place blame on things that happened in the past, but to look to today's operation and what has to be done in the future to keep the Home financially stable. The first item was to survey all the Lodges for some direction from the Craft. We felt that the Craft has been left in the dark too long and now was the time to get their feelings. The results of that survey are enclosed. There were about 50 surveys returned after this tabulation was compiled, but they did not change the results. The following problems were discussed: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Communications with the Craft. Methods to balance the Budget. Operation of the Home Board. Today's problems with respect to the West Side Residential Center. Future development of present facilities and/or others. Other types of programs that can be implemented throughout the State and administered from the Home. 7. Ways to raise monies to finance remodeling and/or new construction. 8. Ways to inform the Craft of the current and long-term problems facing the Hrane. 9. Methods of increasing the Endowment Fund. Based on the discussion of these problems, we would like to make the following recommendations: 1. A $2.00 increase in per capita for exclusi\e use of the Masonic Home, effective on membership as of December 31, 1986. 2.

By-Law 2-301 be changed to read: "Grand Lodge Per Capita Tax and Special Assessment. - Every Lodge working under a Warrant of Constitution Shall Pay Annually to the Grand Lodge, a tax of Eight Dollars per capita on its roll of membership for the preceding year.

Sell the Home and use the money for other charitable uses. Sell the Grand Lodge Building and use this money to help the financial problems of the Home. Renovate the present facilities. The Home is too costly to operate because of its age. The Home should be for the exclusive use of Masons and Eastern Star members. Raising Pees should be raised and used for the Home. Location of Home is not suitable for the majority of the state. Raise the Per Capita Tax, but not too much. Concepts have changed so the Brothers and Sisters should be housed in their local communities. It is our obligation to keep the Home open at all costs. The Home should be self supporting or closed. Instead of just going to the Craft for financial support, we should also approach corporations for support. The Kansas Masonic Foundation should operate the Home. The Home is too top heavy in management.

REPORT OF NECROLOGY COMMITTEE M:.W:. Carroll C. Arnett, PGM, chairman, submitted the following report which, on his motion, was accepted. To the M:-W:. Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: Most worshipful Grand Master and- brethren, once again we pause to pay tribute and honor to those brethren who have laid down the working tools of life and have taken their places in the Grand Lodge above. We are grateful that our Grand Lodge line of officers has not been broken this year. On May 10, 1984, Masonry lost one of its stalwarts in the person of Brother Otto Irby, Chairman of the Advisory Council, Valley of Wichita, Scottish Rite. Brother Irby had always been a most gracious host in extending the facilities of this beautiful temple for our use at Annual Communications and such other occasions as deemed necessary. On June 23, 1984, L. Wilbur Love passed this life during his sleep. This dear friend and loyal Brother Mason had distinguished himself in every aspect of Masonry. Yet, every title and every honor we could bestow upon him would surely give way to his service to our Kansas Masonic Home. It can truly be said "the Home was his family". On November 11, 1984, R:.W:. Darrell A. Farrow, Lecturer Emeritus, passed this life. This quiet, but very dedicated Brother Mason, had time and again demonstrated his interest and zeal for the fraternity and served with distinction as lecturer from 1978 to 1984. His loss causes a void in our midst along with the many other brothers who have contributed immeasurably to our beloved fraternity and are here remembered. On December 21, 1984, we were saddened by the loss of Brother 0. D. Mack who was Illustrious Potentate of Isis Shrine Temple at the time of his death and was serving as Grand Representative to Queensland. He also served the Grand Lodge of Kansas as District Deputy Grand Master in 1972-73; Area Coordinator in 1974; member of the Finance Committee in 1975, 1976 and 1978. In 1977, he served as Grand Tyler of the Grand Lodge of Kansas. Our deepest sympathy goes to his wife, Darlene, and members of the family. Since our last Grand Lodge session we note the passing of 1,883 of our Kansas brethren. They were workers in the temple and their many accomplishments have helped to strengthen our fraternity. To their families we offer our sincere condolence. The memory of these departed brethren brings to mind these, words of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow"Tell me not, in mournful numbers, life is but an empty dream. For the soul is dead that slumbers, and things are not what they seem; Life is real! Life is earnesti And the grave is not its goal; Dust thou art, to dust returnest, was not spoken of the soul; Lives of great men all remind us we can make ours sublime. And, departing, leave behind us footprints on the sands of time." Respectfully submitted, Carroll C. Arnett, PGM, Chairman

REPORT OF THE CORRESPONDENCE COMMITTEE M:.W:. Richard D. Kelsey, PGM, Chairman, gave the following report which, on his motion, was accepted. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: I respectfully submit the report of the Correspondence Committee for 1984.

Proceedings of the

March

In March of 1984 seven proceedings were reviewed and a sample report submitted to the Grand Master, Deputy Grand Master, Grand Senior Warden and Grand Junior Warden seeking advice as to the most effective manner of presenting this report. Replies were received from the Grand Master and Grand Junior Warden. The Grand Master approved this style of report. However, as there was no real interest among the Grand Lodge officers and the absence of any printed review of this committee in recent years, the task of reading all the proceedings of other Grand Lodges did not become a priority of this reviewer and only eighteen reviews were completed. I did, however, find it most interesting to me and of some value to the craft should they have access to the information contained within these proceedings. This report is divided into two sections. A statistical table reporting membership, loss or gain, size of Grand Lodge and date of the report. The essay part of the report covers by subject matter, things lifted from the various reports. Condition of the Order Recommend all-out effort be made to improve attendance at the lodge meetings. Make the meetings a place of fellowship and information. It is time we stopped giving lip service to these needs. -NOVA SCOTIA State of the Craft Committee recommends By-Laws be eunended to allow those activities which will increase visibility of Masonry to its members and to the community. -OHIO Masonry lost one complete generation of members. Do not claim to have solved all the problems, but do believe we are at the bottom of the curve. A dedicated minority can accomplish more than a complacent majority. -WISCONSIN Freemasonry in Colorado in a deplorable state indeed, being consumed by indifference and apathy, lulled into a sense of well-being. Loss of 1,039 members largest loss in history of Grand Lodge. Three lodges in Colorado Springs have lost 40% of their members in the past 14 years while the population of Colorado Springs has quadrupled. Why? The Masters have taken in more workmen than they have been able to put to work. These brothers do not attend lodge nor do they encourage others to attend. Grand Lodge of Nevada has provision whereby when a lodge approaches 200 members they encourage a new lodge to be formed. Every housing complex could use a lodge! -COLORADO Condition of Freemasonry exactly what the Lodge Officers want it to be. Not using the tools, not trying to help themselves. Success depends upon importance and dedication which we attach to the obligation we voluntarily assume. -WYOMING Attitude is hurting us. Some jealousy of appointments and awards. Let's clean up our heart and get back to basic pinciples. DeMolay lost 24 chapters in three years. Unless we get jealousy out and get love back there will be no turn around. We need a refresher course in what made Masonic life so great - work, leadership, belief in ourselves, realistic approach to what we can achieve. -NEW JERSEY Rulings s Amendments Jurisprudence Committee regretfully recommended a lodge should receive a petition from a blind person. -BRITISH COLUMBIA An amendment to allow lodges to rent space to liquor control commission for retail or wholesale distribution rejected. -MICHIGAN An amendment which would give some Past Masters a vote in Grand Lodge was defeated. -MICHIGAN An Amendment allowing lodges to sponsor athletic teams was defeated. -MICHIGAN Thirty dispensations issued to permit serving wine and beer by a lodge. -WISCONSIN A telephone objection to the election of a candidate was ruled as not made in a timely manner. -WISCONSIN Grand Master handed down ruling on use of alcoholic beverage on Masonic premises. Also issued clarifying ruling concerning election and installation of Grand Lodge officers on the first day of Grand Lodge and specifying when the Grand Master-elect would assume the duties of Grand Master. -VERMONT Grand Master withdrew Grand Lodge membership in the Grand Masters Conference during his term of office and asked for a vote of Grand Lodge to make it permanent. -OKLAHOMA

Membership Recommended a skill bank, a computerized listing o f members by skills or vocations which would be readily available to the Grand Lodge. -WISCONSIN Encouraged the active implementation of the Counselor Program. -WISCONSIN Requested each lodge to take long hard look at its membership - why we are not receiving more applications from community leaders and professional men. We must provide strong leadership for the future good of our fraternity. -NOVA SCOTIA Continuing decline in membership attributed almost entirely to resignations and suspensions. Members who for some reason have tried Masonry and found it lacking. This is a loss which can and must be stopped. -GRAND LODGE OF CANADA IN ONTARIO Stress the involvement of sponsors-responsibilities begin, not end, with the signing of the petition. - GRAND LODGE OP CANADA IN ONTARIO Diligence on the part of the lodge can keep arrears from becoming a problem. -ONTARIO Membership increases 33% higher than last year. However, due to screening of old membership files, there were a large number of suspensions. Total membership still d e clining. -CHINA, TAIWAN "Masonic Swingers" - The image of Freemasonry is enjoying a mighty boost and tremendous goodwill is being generated by a choir called the "Square and Compass Swingers". The group is made up of high school age students from over the state and are sponsored by the Grand Lodge. -WISCONSIN The Annual Proceedings contain a list of the members of each lodge by name as well as the demitted, deceased, suspended and expelled during the masonic year. -VERMONT Past Grand Masters are presenting programs of activity bringing visibility into the community, seeing a marked increase of interest not only of inactive Brothers but also from iiOn-Masons. -SOUTH DAKOTA

No Brother can be advanced to the Master Mason Degree until he has visited the Masonic Home and Hospital. Grand Lodge has also established Masonic Widows program and a visitation program to members who are 70 years old or more. -CONNECTICUT The Sports Committee conducts Golf Outings, the proceeds of which go to the Foundation. After a Brother is raised he must fulfill these requirements: 1. Visit Masonic Home. 2. Witness three degrees. 3. Attend District Instruction. -NEW JERSEY Every Lodge shall work in all three degrees during each Master's term, using Master Mason as stand in if there are no actual condidates. -RHODE ISLAND Masonry has the resources, ability, talent to reverse the declining trend. Unfortunately, we fall short of doing the things we teach, lose interest, find ways to shortcut, lose dignity, not only for ourselves, but for new candidates and the entire craft. Those who sign petitions for a candidate should take active interest in the candidate's progress, be his big brother, see that he becomes involved in lodge affairs. -RHODE ISLAND Finance The general'fund is not as stringent as before due to a 55% increase in assessment; 72% increase in collection of interest; a generous donation and control of expenditures of the Grand Secretary's office. The higher assessment brought increased revenue to Grand Lodge but increased expense to the constituent lodges. The Grand Lodge is to review and suggest measures to assure continuing sound financial condition of the constituent lodge. - CHINA The recommendation of a per capita tax of $6.10 for the 1983 year which would include 25 cents to DeMolay, 50 cents for the Green Mountain Mason, 20 cents for the bicentennial (1994), S5.15 for the general fund, and encouraging Grand Lodge life memberships to develop a permanent fund. -VERMONT

Also reduce mileage being paid by Grand Lodge from 20C to 15"? to preclude a per capita tax increase. -WYOMING Establishing liability insurance to protect Grand Lodge and every constituent lodge with $5,000,000 limit. -CONNECTICUT A Special committee recommended appropriation of $2.20 per member from per capita tax and a sum of $300,000 from Grand Lodge fee fund to be applied to renovation of Masonic Home. -OHIO Increased per capita tax from $4 to $6 for Freemasons Home. pacity and has a waiting list. -NOVA SCOTIA

Every Candidate is not only coached, but is counseled. He must be informed about the lodge to prevent him being a dropout in the future. -OHIO Masonic Handbook is a benchmark in leadership sought after by other jurisdictions. -WISCONSIN Grand Master issued a personal summons to each Master to attend leadership training course offered by Grand Lodge.

Subjects discussed were "Programming, communicating and administering". Four of these seminars were conducted across the jurisdiction. -NEW JERSEY Masonic leadership is the art of changing a Lodge from what it is to what it should be. -LOUISIANA Grand Master's Itinerary A special committee was appointed to study the Grand Master's itinerary with the idea that other Grand Lodge Officers share in the heavy load. Their recommendation included that planning and circumstance should be involved in the decision, and that priorities be set for various types of commitment, and that other Grand Lodge officers should start planning their own itinerary with the Grand Master-elect.

REPORT OF GRAND LODGE PUBLICATIONS COMMITTEE R:.W:. Albert O. Arnold, Jr., read the report of the Grand Lodge Publications Committee which he had received from W: . Floyd E. (Gene) Ramsey, Chairman; and, on his motion, the report was accepted. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: It was with the greatest humility that I accepted the job of Editor of the KANSAS MASON. I have only published three issues, but have already "met" many fine brother Masons through their contributions. I want the KANSAS MASON to be for all Kansas Masons and will do my best to print all articles sent to me. I would like to have something from every lodge in Kansas during the coming year- So, please, keep the items and photos coming of your Lodge's activities and I will do my best to get them in. I can't tell you that I will fill the shoes of ray outstanding prdecessors, but I will do my best. Tim Haddad does an outstanding job on the Masonic Home pages, and is a real joy to work with. He wants his part of the KANSAS MASON to be informational and accurate. Next year I want to meet you all in person, and I regret that a personal commitment is keeping me from attending Grand Lodge this year. Thank you. Floyd E. (Gene) Ramsey, Chairman

REPORT OF RITUALISTIC COMMITTEE M;.W:. J. Fred Williamson, PGM, Chairman, presented the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M: .W: . Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: The Ritualistic Committee and the Grand Lecturers met in Salina the first weekend in August. Assignments for the 1985 District Meetings were made and the program approved. The new District Lecturers were in attendance, and participated in the school of instruction. We still need more District Lecturers in some parts of the state. This Committee did not intentionally overlook anyone who volunteered or was suggested by someone- However, many names were received from various sources, and it is possible a few were lost in the process. If you know of anyone who has not been contacted, please let us know so that we can put them to work. This Committee is indebted to the Grand Lecturers for their untiring efforts on behalf of the Ritualistic program. They are to be commended for a job well done. We are sorry to report the death of R:.W:. Darrell Farrow who served as a Grand Lecturer for over ten years. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. Fraternally submitted, J. Fred Williamson, PGM, Chairman James R. Stradley John E. Stover E. Dean Osborne

REPORT OF THE KANSAS MASONIC FOUNDATION, INC. Brother Curtis W. Carry, Executive Director, presented the following report which, on his motion, was accepted. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: Thanks to the hard work and support of many brother Masons, the past year has continued to be one of growth and success for the Kansas Masonic Foundation. "C Club" Fund Raising Program The "C Club" program continued to be the mainstay of the annual fund raising efforts of the Kansas Masonic Foundation. In the calendar year 1984, total contributions to the program totaled $90,938.70, an eight percent increase over the $83,878.62 contributed in calendar year 1983. Kansas Masonic Oncology Clinic The Kansas Masonic Oncology Clinic continues to provide the latest in chemotherapy treatment for approximately 500 patients each month at the University of Kansas Medical Center. The Board of Trustees of the Foundation last May increased its annual support of the Clinic to $83,410.00, an eleven percent increase over the previous year's grant of $74,870.00 Scholarship Loan Program Three more students were added to the program this year. Currently, 12 students are in school and receiving aid, 10 students have completed college and are in the process of paying off their loans, and 25 have repaid their loans since the program started. Because of the increased interest in this program, available funds have become very limited. This limitation has forced the Foundation to decrease the total amount loaned to any one student, and will limit the number of new students entering the program each year until older loans are payed off or new funds are received through contributions. Kansas High School Masonic All-State Band We're most excited about the newest activity of the Kansas Masonic Foundation, the Kansas High School Masonic All-State Band. In August the five-day band csaap was held at Kansas State University. Sixty-six lodges, one Shrine unit and several other individuals sponsored 91 high school juniors and sophomores to participate in the first

Masonic All-State Band. The band worked hard and were an important addition to the Kansas Shrine All-Star Football Game. The Band led the Shrine Bowl parade through downtown Manhattan and presented a halftime performance at the Shrine Bowl Game in addition to participating in the Game's opening ceremonies and in a post-game performance. I know it is safe to say that everyone is enthused about the Masonic All-State Band, including the sponsoring Blue Lodges and the students and their parents. Certainly all Kansas Masons can look forward to this Band's potential for growth and for presenting a positive image for Masonry in our communities and schools. This summer the Band follows the Shrine Bowl Game to Wichita and Wichita State University. We hope you will continue to support the Band by sponsoring students. If your Lodge did not sponsor a student last year, please take the opportunity to visit with a Lodge which did. I am sure they can enthusiastically tell you about the positive experience they had. We especially want to thank Stan Finck, KSU Band Director, and his staff. His ability to motivate and lead young people in a program such as the Masonic All-State Band is second to none. KSU is very enthusiastic about the program and looks forward to the return of the band Ccimp to its campus in the future. Preliminary visits have also been made with Wichita State University and the University of Kansas. Band faculties at those colleges are excited about the band camps to be held on their campuses in future years. Endowment The Foundation has seen a large increase in the amount of Funds received through bequests. In calendar year 1984 it received $221,120.32 in bequests. An additional $10,123.78 in permanent funds were received through its ongoing memorial program; gifts given in memory of deceased friends and family members. Financial Statement Included in this report is a copy of the most recent quarter's balance sheet. The Foundation is independently audited each year. A copy of that audit is available upon request.

SPECIAL PRESENTATION M:.W:. Robert Metcalf, Grand Master of Nebraska, addressed the brethren, bringing greetings from the Grand Lodge of Nebraska. At the conclusion of his remarks, he presented M: .W:. Lawrence D. Winegardner with a Certificate commissioning him as an Admiral in the Navy of the Great State of Nebraska, duly signed by the Governor of Nebraska. M:.W:. James Dunn, Grand Master of Colorado, extended greetings from the Grand Lodge of Colorado, and expressed his appreciation for the many courtesies extended to him during this Annual Communication.

REPORT OF TRIALS AND PUNISHMENTS COMMITTEE M: .W: . John H. Murray, PGM, Chairman, gave the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: We regret to report that we have received six new cases for trial during the year, and that five of those cases have been completed with the sixth case awaiting trial after this reporting period. Those matters heard were: 1. A brother was charged with violating his Masonic duty and with conduct unbecoming a Mason as the result of his plea of guilty to two felonies and after having been sentenced to state prison at Lansing, Kansas. He entered a plea of not guilty intending to protect his wife. However, he did not appear at trial and had no one represent him at the trial and, after taking testimony, the committee found' that he should be expelled. 2. A brother was charged with three counts of incest in the District Court and as the result thereof, was charged with violating his Masonic duty and with conduct unbecoming a Mason. After a trial before two members of the committee, the accused not appearing, he was found guilty and the conmiittee found that he should be expelled. 3A brother was charged with assault with a deadly weapon with intent to do bodily harm or death, which is also an offense against the body of Masonry and being conduct unbecoming a Mason. After trial was had, the accused not appearing, he was found guilty and the penalty was expulsion. 4. A brother was charged with violating his Masonic duty and with conduct unbecoming a Mason on his conviction of felony theft and misusing funds placed in his trust. Upon his failure to enter a plea, a plea of not guilty was entered and trial was had before a member of the committee- After circulation of transcript of proceedings, the ccxranittee found the accused guilty and penalty was expulsion.

5. A brother was charged in another state with an offense against the body of Masonry by committing an act derogatory to the reputation of Masonry, being an act of lewd assault. This brother did not plea and did not appear at the trial, and evidence from the civil court showed that he had been found guilty and placed on probation for ten years in order to complete psychiatric counseling. On the basis of the evidence presented, he was found guilty and ordered expelled. 6. A brother was accused of committing arson and of defrauding an insurance company, being acts derogatory to Masonry, and because he is out of state, thirty days notice is required and that notice does not expire until after this session of Grand Lodge. Therefore, this case will be passed over to the next Trials and Punishment Committee. Your Chairman appreciates the assistance of the committee members in conducting hearings and in attending the various trials, even though in each instance a transcript of the proceedings was prepared and sent to all members of the committee. It has been our policy to enter a plea of not guilty for any brother that does not respond and for any brother that does not plead guilty. This does necessitate a hearing or trial in the Lodge of the accused, and we do appreciate the assistance of the lodge officers in providing time and place of trial, as well as a reporter to report and transcribe the proceedings of each trial.

REPORT OF FOREIGN RELATIONS COMMITTEE M:.W:. Forrest D. Haggard, PGM, Chairman, gave the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: We express our appreciation to our Grand Master, M:.W:. Lawrence D. Winegardner, for his confidence in appointing us. We are grateful to our Grand Secretary and his staff for their aid and assistance during this year. The help of Dave and Francoise Recob and Biard Strain in translations of communications was very useful this year. Thank you to all! We want to pay tribute to our Grand Representatives and especially to those brethren who, when travelling, made Regular Masonic contact and did so with the help, aid and advice of the office of Grand SecretaryMasonry is on the move and thus is coming under fire and is being duplicated by irregular and illegal (non-regular Masonic) groups. The Haitian Federation of Masons is again active .and sending literature to our membership. This is not a legitimate Masonic organization in terms of recognition. You should have no connection with them. The trials of the Grand Orient of Italy continue. The latest being a letter from the "Gran Lodgia Generale d*Italia". The letter was well repudiated by the Grand Master of the regular Grand Orient. Freemasonry does well not to mix with organized politics. I was interested in a letter from the irregular so called Grand Orient of Lebanon complaining about "irregular groups" with whom it must cope- The Grand Orient also sent out an appeal for funds. It is not recognized. Problems with "irregular" Masonic activity also seems to plague the Third World. The Grand Lodge of Rio De Janerio Brazil is having such difficulties. We (Kansas) do not recognize the Grand Lodge of Rio De Janerio, but several other Grand Jurisdictions with whom we are in regular communication, do.

Proceedings of the

We had several requests for assistance and aid from individual Grand Lodges but none had to do with direct Masonic needs. Anti-Masonic feelings {religious in formation) are among us. Our Grand Secretary states: "The anti-Masonic movement in Kansas is having somewhat of a hey-day." This needs to be answered and your chairman is working on this problem. The Grand Secretary has had some contact from Prince Hall Masonry concerning potential civil legislation dealing with so called Masonic groups. This is a difficult area and any "civil legislation" needs to be thought out very, very carefully. We received copies of correspondence between the Grand Masters of California and of New Jersey concerning a dispute over jurisdiction of the request of Mr. Danny Thomas (the entertainer) for Masonic affiliation. The dispute seems to have been settled after the Grand Master of California withdrew recognition from the Grand Lodge of New Jersey. What happened to the petitioner was not mentioned! I wonder if the "structure" of Freemasonry interferred with its "art"??? Indiana had a dispute with Illinois and withdrew recognition. It was over "jurisdictional integrity". . There may be times to "wield a club" of the power and authority of a Grand Master and issue an edict withdrawing recognition, but that is a very severe type of action. None of the correspondence which came to my attention carried the seal of the Grand Lodge nor was attested to by a Grand Secretary. This is a good time to record appreciation for the patience, wisdom and forbearance of the Grand Masters of this Grand Jurisdiction as they have dealt with "border and jurisdictional" disputes. We received a letter of GREETINGS AND APPRECIATION from the Grand Lodge of Spain concerning our affirmative vote of recognition of their grand Lodge. Representatives have been exchanged. Our Fraternal Relations with the Grand Lodge of Cuba have been underscored by an affirmation of the same by the Commission of the Grand Masters of North America. We have received a request for recognition from the Grand Lodge National of Columbia located in Cartegena. It is under advisement. We have one recommendation that requires action: Last year, the Commission on Information for Recognition of the Conference of Grand Masters of Masons in North America was represented at the consecration of the new Grand Lodge of Gabon. The Grand Lodge of Gabon was consecrated by the Grand Lodge National of France (Regular). It has been established in accordance with the standards of the commission, and is recommended by the Commission as being Regular and worthy of recognition. (Gabon was once a part of French Equatorial Africa. Its capital city is Libreville. The Lodges work in French using the English Emulation Ritual.) Therefore, we recommend the recognition of the Grand Lodge of Gabon and the exchange of Grand Representatives with the same. On his motion, this recommendation was moved, seconded and accepted. Fraternally siibmitted, Forrest D. Haggard, PGM, Chairman Harold B. Aldrich David L. Recob

Goodland Lodge No. 321 completed the exterior of their new building and are in the process of completing the interior. The Grand Master officiated at a Cornerstone Ceremony in October. 3. Altoona Lodge No. 118 consolidated with Benedict Lodge No. 403 and were granted peinnission to sell their lodge building while they had a buyer. 4. Wakarusa Lodge No. 402 did a small remodeling project on their Lodge Hall which included window replacement, added insulation and other small improvement. 5. Millbrook Lodge No. 281, Hill City, was granted authority to sell their Lodge building at a very desirable price and conditions. 6. Alta Vista Lodge No. 357 had plans approved for a new building and have rapidly brought it to a finished Lodge. 7. lola Lodge No. 38 and the other Masonic bodies had storm damage on May 3, and as the insurance was not enough to cover all replacement costs, everyone pitched in for the additional repairs. 8. Chetopa Lodge No. 73 sold their building and now have authority to proceed with the plans for a new building. 9. Reno Lodge No. 140, Hutchinson, was granted permission to install an elevator and make improvements to exterior of building. 10. Sedgwick Lodge No. 139 consolidated with Newton Lodge No. 142 and they are in the process of selling the building in Sedgwick. 11. Cawker City Lodge No. 125 has concluded the sale of their building. 12. Galva Lodge No. 251 consolidated with McPherson Lodge No. 172 and they have been granted permission to complete the sale of the building in Galva. 13. Garden City Lodge No. 246, being a member of the Garden City Masonic Temple Corp., was granted permission early in the year to purchase land for a new Temple. The committee for the corporation is now finalizing plans for the building and should be starting construction in the near future. The Temple Building and Remodeling Committee is pleased with the many projects and new buildings. We feel that each one gives Masonry a boost in their communities. Fraternally submitted. Chester L.

This past year, a little four year old girl lost an arm when a school bus overturned. She is doing fine - already she is using her feet to compensate for the loss of the arm. However, it is a very difficult time for her parents. IJuring one of my visits to the VA Medical Center at Leavenworth, Kansas, I learned about a Black Man, 24 years old, who had lost an arm in an accident. I know what this man was going through, because his amputation was in the same location as mine - I was also 24 years old when I lost mine. I called on him several times. At first, all he wanted to do was to stay in bed. I had him get up and go and have coffee with me. The last report I received, he was in the domiciliary, was out and about wearing a smile. Our Brother Chester H. Roberts, Secretary of Gardner Lodge No. 65, had to have an arm amputated. This took place of Friday before Saint John's Day. His lodge met on Thursday. He could not attend, but the Brethren, before returning home from their meeting, all came to see him in the Gardner Hospital and visited him, two-by-two, to wish him well. I learned about his operation on Friday. I called on our Brother and his wife on Saturday. It was greatly appreciated not only by them, but also his daughter and son-in-law whom I saw on Sunday. This is OPERATION "KAN" in action, caring and sharing. "Let each do that for which he is best fitted. The teacher also is a workman." (Morals and Dogma, page 95) Fraternally submitted. Glenn L.

REPORT OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS COMMITTEE W:. John A. Schowalter, Chairman, submitted the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: This year your Committee on Public Schools has endeavored to continue and expand the programs which have been developed in the past. That is, the statewide Scholarship Essay Contest and American Heritage - Pxiblic Schools Month. By-Law 2-124C of the Grand Lodge charges this committee to "...develop programs..." and to " — guide and advise the Grand Lodge in supporting and strengthening the free public sclrool system...". Essay Contest Because of many requests, the topic from the 1980 Essay Contest, "Prayer in the Public Schools", was used again this year. This timely and thought-provoking topic was well received and produced some very good essays from the young people across the state. Participation in the contest set a new record again this year with a total of 222 essays (127 girls and 95 boys) submitted in the state contest. It should be kept in mind that each one of these are first-place winners in local essay contests. This year, at the suggestion of our Grand Master, the Essay Contest was expanded to include high school juniors as well as seniors. This proved to be a very worthwhile change and has increased interest in the Essay Contest. The amounts of the scholarship awards remained the sam.e again this year: $1,000 for First Place; $700 for Second; $500 for Third; $300 for Fourth; and $100 for Fifth Place to each boy and girl winner. There were also three Honorable Mentions in each category that carried no scholarship award. The winners of the 1984 Essay Contest are:

The committee v/as again fortunate this year to have the able assistance of Brothers Royal B. Brown of Leavenworth, Conrad F. Johnson of Sabetha and William F. Mcintosh, PGM, of Clay Center who served as judges for the Essay Contest. American Heritage - Public Schools Month On January 9, 1985, the Honorable John Carlin, Governor of Kansas, proclaimed the month of February, 1985, to be observed as American Heritage - Public Schools Month in Kansas. A letter was sent to all Lodges encouraging them to hold a special program during February in celebration of American Heritage - Public Schools Month. Recommendations The inclusion of juniors as well as seniors in the Essay Contest proved very successful. We would, therefore, recommend that juniors be included in all future Essay Contests. As the Essay Contest is continuing to grow, we believe that the scholarship awards should keep pace. We would, therefore, recommend the addition of a sixth place award and the adjustment of the other awards as follows: First Place, $1,000; Second Place, $800; Third Place, $600; Fourth Place, $400; Fifth Place, $200; Sixth Place, $100 each, in the separate girls and boys contests. Conclusion We wish to thank our Grand Master, M:.W:. Lawrence D. Winegardner, for giving us this rewarding opportunity to serve the Craft; and for his support and wise council throughout the year. We also wish to thank R: .W:. Albert 0. Arnold, Jr., Grand Secretary, and his staff for their assistance. And to our Essay Contest judges, a special thanks for their valuable service. Finally Brethren, you, the Masons of Kansas, should feel justly proud. You have brought the Essay Contest to the point where it should be considered to be one of the major programs of this Grand Lodge. More than one-third of the lodges in Kansas had entries in the state-wide contest this year. That means that approximately 130 lodges held local essay contests in their public schools.

REPORT OF CHURCH-LODGE RELATIONS COMMITTEE W: . William J. Brown, member, gave the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: As members of the oldest and the most respected Fraternity in the world, we have a responsibility to God, to our religion and to our fellowman. Masonry, though religious by nature, is not a religion. Masonry should never be considered a religion, but each member should assume a responsibility to God and to the Church of his choice. Very few of the organized religions in our country is critical of Masonry. However, we do not have the best of relationships with some of our younger ministers. Fulfilling our responsibility to our church can overshadow most of this criticism. We owe special responsibility to our local ministers. We ask them for the priviledge of performing a funeral service for our departed brothers when the family requests this service. We owe them respect and the Master or the orator should confer with the family minister prior to the service so that both have an understanding, and so that the Masonic service will in no way conflict with the Church's service. The local ministers should have special invitations to all open events of the Lodge. The Lodge should support all church special events such as special days, anniversaries, or special activities of the church. The Masonic Brothers should support all events of his church— How about seeking a special invitation for the lodge Brothers to set in a body, or to attend church as a group for St. John's Day, Good Friday Services, World Day of Prayer, or Maundy Thursday services? We are of the opinion that Church-Lodge relationships can be improved by our own actions if we let the Church understand that it is foremost in our lives and Masonry is second to the Church. This committee is asking each lodge to participate in a St. John's Day service of some kind each year, even if it is only a matter of attending a church in a body. We are suggesting that the Master or the Lodge Chaplain visit with the local ministers each year suggesting lodge cooperation with the Church. The person who is to give the funeral

lecture, or the Master, should visit with the Minister and the funeral director prior to the day of the service of a departed Brother. Each, member should resolve to be a better Church member because of his Masonic affiliation.

REPORT OP MASONIC EDUCATION COMMITTEE M:.W:. Ben B. Boyles, PGM, Chairman, presented the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: The activities of the Masonic Education Committee, we hope, reflected the goals of M:.W:. Larry Winegardner this year. Certainly it was the desire to bring to the Craft ideas and suggestions that were challenging and informative. Whatever success may have been achieved was the result of dedicated work by the Council of Administration and those members of the Education Committee who performed so willingly for me during the trying months I experienced in 1984. It is my firm conviction that we are assuredly facing many of our problems with more frankness and, just maybe, more unanimity than previously. On behalf of the Committee, I want to thank M:.W:.

The committee v/as organized so that each member worked with one of the three youth groups (based on his own background and experience). This concept seemed to work well in establishing rapport and communications with the youth groups. We also contributed the "Focus on Youth" coliomn to the KANSAS MASON in our efforts to promote and encourage our Masonic young people. Presentation of recognition certificates by the Grand Master to meritorious youth group members is a project we would like to see continued. Now, more than ever. Masons need to show their financial and moral support for our young people. Masons should find the money and the time to help and work with the youngsters who are the fraternity's hope for the futureRespectfully submitted. Craig L. Davidson, Chairman James W.

REPORT OP GRAND LODGE ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE

R:-W:. Durward C. Danielson, GSW, Chairman, presented the following report which, on his motion, was accepted. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: The only project of the Grand Lodge Activities Committee for the 1984-85 year was the Masonic Retreat held at Rock Springs 4-H Ranch, southwest of Junction City, over Labor Day weekend, September 1, 2 and 3, 1984. For this seventh annual weekend of leisurely enjoyment, relaxation and rest, there were 68 Brothers, Sisters and friends who came to participate in the activities. After a rather warm first day, a break in the weather made the last two days very enjoyable weatherwise. Although attendance was down by 15 or 20 from 1983, the committee feels that the retreat was thoroughly enjoyed by the participants. A number of those present expressed themselves to this effect, and hoped that it would continue. It is felt that with earlier and wider notification across the state, more brethren can plan for and attend the retreat in future years. On behalf of the Committee, I express our appreciation of the opportunity to serve the Grand Jurisdiction of Kansas. Respectfully submitted. Durward C, Danielson, GSW, Chairman C. M.

REPORT OF THE GRAND LODGE LIBRARY COMMITTEE M: .W: . Ben W. Graybill, PGM, Chairman, gave the following report which, on his motion. was accepted. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: In 1980, M:.W:. F. Warren Starns asked the present Chairman to chair an ad hoc committee for the purpose of cataloguing the contents of our Grand Lodge Library. His goal was not only for the purpose of learning what we hade, but also how to find it if it is there. A second assignment for the committee was to develop interest in what we had so that it would be used for providing information to members who were interested in disseminating Masonic information to the lodges and members of the Grand Jurisdiction.

with the professional assistance of R:.W:. Keith Arrington who had recently retired as Librarian of the Grand Lodge of Iowa, and the staff of our Grand Secretary, R:.W:. Albert O. Arnold, we now can determine within minutes if we have material on any subject being researched. Within the past year our Grand Secretary has initiated current improved methods for preserving valuable historic manuscripts and records. He is now processing the papers of all Past Grand Masters. Having completed the first assignment, our attention was directed to determining what method to use in developing interest in the Library so that a nucleus of interested Masons would use it to produce a number of Masonic writers and speakers. It was decided that the establishment of a Kansas Lodge of Research would be the most effective method. It was hoped that we could attract a minimum of 75 eligible members from which 10 or 15 would qualify to speak. At the Annual Communication of the Grand Lodge in 1981, a Charter was granted to the Kansas Lodge of Research and M:.W:. Ben Boyles presented it to the Lodge of Research . first Master, Ben Graybill, PGM. There were 750 Charter Members. In May of that year the newly elected officers were installed and M: .W: . F. Warren Starns, PGM, became the second Master. During that year plans were formulated for implementing the original purpose of the project. From that date on, the Lodge of Research quickly disintegrated. Prom the inquiries received by this writer, this was not due to the lack of interest in the membership, but because the attention of the leadership of the Grand Lodge was diverted to other matters. At the beginning of this year, M:.W:. Winegardner asked the present Chairman to continue in that capacity, stating that he had plans for the redevelopment of interest. It is common knowledge that due to a situation which the current Council of Administration inherited and is in no way responsible for, the attention of the present leadership has necessarily been directed to an effort to solve a problem greater than ever before facing this Grand Lodge. Consequently, the Grand Master has not had the time to consult with this Committee, so nothing has been accomplished this year, except the work of the Grand Secretary in taking steps to preserve our records of great historical value. Fraternally and respectfully submitted, Ben W. Graybill, PGM, Chairman

REPORT OF FINANCE COMMITTEE M:.W:. Ralph D. Walker, PGM, Chairman, presented the Finance Committee Report which, on his motion, was accepted. To the M:.W:.

Then each of the Grand Lodge officers, their ladies and guests were introduced as they were promenaded down the stairs at the east end of the banquet hall. Following the invocation by the Grand Chaplain, a delicious dinner was enjoyed after which the Grand Master again greeted those present and acknowledged Distinguished Guests and Visitors. Following an enjoyable dinner, the Grand Master dispatched the Grand Senior Deacon to find the recipients of two Heroism Awards. W:.

A surprise presentation was made to W:. Conrad F. Johnson, Grand Chaplain. A gold watch was presented by M:.W:. Winegardner in behalf of all the Grand Masters under whom Brother Johnson had served through many years. He has served more years as Grand Chaplain than anyother in this Grand Jurisdiction - serving during the years 1972, 1974, 1976, 1977, 1979, 1980, 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984 and 1985. The Grand Master then announced that the Distinguished Service Award was being presented to co-winners. Brother Harley Henry, Sr., a member of Orient Lodge No. 51 in Topeka, and W:. Alvin K. Banman, a member and Past Master of Nine Mile Lodge No. 49 in Lansing. Both of these distinguished brothers were escorted to the podium, individually, and received a standing ovation. Both have served for many, many years as V.A.V.S. representatives at the Veterans' Hospitals in Kansas. Harlan Henry's service is the longest on record of any representative, and continues at the Veteran's Hospital in Topeka. Brother Banman served the Veteran's Hospital at Leavenworth for many years before moving to Newton. From there he has continued, as time will permit, to serve at the Veteran's Hospital in Wichita. Both of these good brothers responded with appropriate remarks and deep appreciation. Following the awards presentations, Mr. Bob Murphy, an attorney from Nacogdoches, Texas, addressed the audience. His humorous anecdotes, witicisms and homilies brought gales of laughter from the audience. The Grand Master then reminded us of the schedule to be followed the next day, paid special tribute to the Grand Organist, Brother Robert Foley, for his music; and dismissed us after a word of prayer from the Grand Chaplain.

REFRESHMENT TO LABOR The Grand Lodge was called from Refreshment to Labor on the Third Degree at 9:00 A.M. on Saturday, March 16, 1985, and the Business Session of the One Hundred Twenty-ninth Annual Communication was resumed.

Certain items in this report were acted upon individually; and then at the conclusion, the report was adopted as a whole. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: This Committee thanks M:.W:. Lawrence D. Winegardner, Grand Master, for the opportunity and responsibility of being assigned the task of making the report on the Jurisprudence Committee. I. Your Committee has given consideration to the dispensations granted during the past year by your Grand Master and finds that they were issued within his prerogative and in accordance with our Constitution and By-laws and recommends the approval thereof. (Recommendation upon regular motion and second was approved.) II. Our Grand Master under the heading of Rulings in his address, gave answers to seven questions set out therein. The Committee unanimously agrees that the answers are correct and in accordance with past decisions, interpretations and recommendations, and recommends the approval of same. (Recommendation upon regular motion and second was approved.) III. Your Committee has given careful attention to the several suggestions made by the Grand Master as to changes in certain By-laws. 1. OPEN INSTALLATION ON SUNDAYS. The Grand Master recommends that the By-laws be amended to permit open installation of Lodge officers on Sundays. Your Committee unanimously agrees and recommends that By-law 3-416 be amended to add the phrase "open installations of Lodge Officers" so that it will read as follows: "3-416 SUNDAY CEREMONIES. NO Lodge Communications nor Masonic Ceremony of any kind shall be held or conducted on Sunday except funeral ceremonies, Lodges of Sorrow, celebrations of St. John's Day and open installations of Lodge officers; • provided, that nothing above shall be construed as preventing the Grand Master from convening a Special Communication of Grand Lodge whenever he deems it necessary for the welfare of the Fraternity." (Recommendation upon regular motion and second was approved.) 2. PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO BY-LAW 4-127, CONDUCT OF THE BALLOT. The Grand Master recommends that the word "present" be added so as to make the By-law's meaning clear. The Committee unanimously recommends that By-law 4-127 be amended to read as follows:

"4-127 CONDUCT OF BALLOT. The ballot shall be under the supervision and control of the Master, and shall be inspected only by him and the Wardens. Every member present shall vote, and the Master shall not entertain any excuse from voting, or motion to postpone the ballot, or to reconsider it.

3. .PERMIT PROFICIENCY EXAMINATION BY COMMITTEE, The Grand Master-recommends that the By-laws be amended to permit a proficiency examination to be conducted -by a committee. Your Committee unanimously agrees and recommends that By-law 4-206.be amended to delete the phrase "while the Lodge is open on the Degree previously attained by the Candidate" from the first sentence, and in place thereof add the. following phrase, "either in open Lodge or by a committee of not less than three members of the Lodge appointed by the Master.", and. inserting the phrase, "or upon the favorable report of said committee" in the second sentence so that By-law 4-206. would read as follows: "4-206 PROFICIENCY EXAMINATIONS. The examination of a.candidate upon his proficiency shall be conducted white-the-bodge-is-open-on-the-Begree-previoaaiy attained-by-the-eandidote either in open Lodge or by a committee of not less than three members of the Lodge appointed by the Master. The vote of the Lodge upon the proficiency of the Candidate or upon the favorable report of said committee shall be taken with the Candidate excused and the Lodge open on either the same degree or the next highest degree." (Recommendation after discussion was refused.) 4. WORK IN SEPARATE ROOMS. The Grand Master recommends that the By-laws be amended to permit the Grand Master to grant a special dispensation for a lodge to confer more than one degree at a time. The Committee unanimously agrees and recommends that the phrase "except that the Grand Master may grant special dispensation for a Lodge to confer more than one degree at a time by using separate rooms, provided said separate rooms are within the same Lodge building" be added to By-law 4-213 so that it would read as follows: "4-213 WORK IN SEPARATE ROOMS. A Lodge cannot confer degrees in separate rooms at the same time, except that the Grand Master may grant special dispensation for a Lodge to confer more than one degree at a time by using separate rooms, providing said separate rooms are within the same Lodge building." (Recommendation upon regular motion, second and discussion, was adopted.) 5. LIABILITY INSURANCE. The Grand Master- recommends that the Grand Lodge obtain a blanket liability insurance policy which would provide liability insurance as to all lodges not otherwise exempted by the Council of Administration. The Committee unanimously recommends the adoption of the following By-law; to wit, . "LIABILITY INSURANCE. The Council of Administration is authorized to purchase a Comprehensive Public Liability Policy covering the Grand Lodge and all constituent Lodges, which provides the following; to wit, "(1) Personal injury, bodily injury, and property damage liability coverage of $1,000,000; "(2) Medical payments of $1,000 per person, aggregate of $10,000 per accident; "(3) Fidelity bond coverage of $2,500 per person, including all officers, committeemen, and members whether or not salaried; "(4) Loss of monies or securities with limit of $5,000 for Grand Lodge and $1,000 for each constitutent Lodge; "(5) Paraphernalia coverage of $1,000; "(6) Workers' Compensation and Employers' liability coverage. "That the Council of Administration is authorized to prorate the cost thereof to each constitutent Lodge based upon the roll of membership of the preceding December 31 and to make an assessment therefor to each Lodge. "The said assessment shall not be assessed against the members, but shall be paid out of the General Fund of the Lodge. The Lodge shall pay the assessment within 45 days of the date of the assessment made by Grand Lodge. "Provided: The Council of Administration shall exempt a Lodge from such coverage and assessment if it finds that such Lodge already has personal

injury, bodily injury, and property damage liability insurance coverage of a minimum of $300/000." (Recommendation was adopted.) nesclnded, June 8, 19?5 before publication. . see addendur.. 6. MASONIC HOME FACT-FINDING COMMITTEE. The report of the Masonic Home Fact-Finding Committee has been referred to this Committee for action. Your Coiranittee has reviewed the recommendations of that report, and in order to present the recommendations to this Grand Lodge for its decision, we submit the following: A. The Report of the Special Committee recommends a $2.00 increase in the per capita tax with the increase going to The Kansas Masonic Home with the increase to become effective on membership as of December 31, 1986. We recommend that this proposition be submitted for your decision in the following form; to wit, That the first paragraph of By-law 2-301 be amended to read: "Every Lodge working under a Warrant of Constitution shall pay annual to the Grand Lodge a tax of Six Eight Etollars per capita on its roll of membership for the preceding year. Said per capita tax shall be divided between the General Fund of the Grand Lodge and The Kansas Masonic Home, such division to be made each year by the Council of Administration with the approval of the Board of Directors of The Kansas Masonic Home in such proportions as will best meet the needs of both, and with the further provision that the portion allocated to The Kansas Masonic Home shall never be less than $1^59 $3.50 per capita; Provided that any increase in the per capita tax shall become effective on the Lodge roll of membership determined on December 31 the following year. (Recommendation after regular motion and second was defeated for want of a two-thirds majority.) B. The Special Committee recommends the enactment of a special assessment of $1.00, payable in January, 1986, on the membership of 1985. We recommend that this proposition be submitted for your decision in the following form; to wit, BE IT ADOPTED by this Grand Lodge that pursuant to ARTICLE IV, Section 1, of the Constitution, a special assessment is made on each Lodge in a sum equal to $1.00 for each member based upon the roll of membership December 31, 1985, payable on or before January 10, 1986; the same to be paid over to The Kansas Masonic Home. (Motion was made and regularly seconded raising the special assessment to $3.00. to amend was carried- The recommendation then carried and was adopted.)

Motion

C. That the Masonic Home Fact-Finding Committee makes recommendations relative to the composition of the Board of Directors. The Jurisprudence Committee has examined the By-laws of The Kansas Masonic Home and finds that ARTICLE I, Section 1, provides: "The Kansas Masonic Home shall be governed by a Board of Directors consisting of nine members, eight of whom shall be Master Masons and one a member of the Order of the Eastern Star. Said Board of Directors shall be chosen as follows: Four thereof shall be members of the Council of Administration of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas; four thereof shall be elected by the said Council of Administration of said Grand Lodge, one each year for a term of four years except where an unexpired term is filled, and one thereof by the Grand Chapter of the Order of the Eastern Star of the State of Kansas." We further find that according to the present By-laws, the Board now elects the President. Therefore the only change which would be necessary is to provide that the four Master Masons should be elected by Grand Lodge rather than the Council of Administration.

That since the Kansas Masonic Home is a separate corporation, this Grand Lodge only has the power to request and not to command. Therefore to present the recommendation of the Fact-Finding Committee for your decision, we suggest the following Resolution; to wit, RESOLUTION BE IT RESOLVED by this Grand Lodge, that it does hereby request the Board of Directors of The Kansas Masonic Home that it amend its By-laws so that the four (4) Master Mason positions on the Board be elected by the Grand Lodge rather than by the Council of Administration. That the four (4) Master Mason positions shall serve staggered four (4) year terms. That such members be elected at the Annual Communication of the Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas. That the Grand Master is to appoint a nominating committee of not less than three (3) nor more than five (5) who shall review the recommendations and qualifications of names submitted to them; that the nominating committee is to report to the Annual Communication of Grand Lodge its recommendations of the two most qualified namer. submitted, along with the qualifications of each nominee. That the Grand Lodge shall elect the member of the Board from said nominees." (Recommendation upon regular motion and second was approved.) D. The Special Committee recommends that the Grand Lodge distribution of the per capita tax be printed on the back of the Dues Cards. In order to submit this recommendation to you for your decision, we recommend the following form; to wit, BE IT ENACTED that the Grand Secretary all Dues Cards a statement concerning the tween the General Fund of the Grand Lodge ment to be in the following form with the

shall cause to be printed on the back of then division of the per capita tax beand The Kansas Masonic Home- Such stateapplicable figures inserted; to wit,

"The Grand Lodge levies a tax against each Lodge of Dollars per capita on its roll of membership for the preceding year. Such per capita tax presently is divided as follows: General Fund of Grand Lodge 5 ; The Kansas Masonic Home $ ." (Recommendation upon regular motion and second was adopted.) A request had been presented to this Committee from three Lodges in Northeast Kansas requesting that By-law 2-301 be amended so as to make a statement as to when an increase in the per capita tax become effective. In order to place this issue before the Grand Lodge, I move that the first paragraph of By-law 2-301 be amended by adding the following phrase at the end thereof; to wit, "Provided that any increase in the per capita tax shall become effective on the Lodge roll of membership determined on December 31 the following year." so that the first paragraph of By-law 2-301 as amended will read as follows: "Every Lodge working under a Warrant of Constitution shall pay annually to the Grand Lodge, a tax of Six Dollars per capita on its roll of membership for the preceding year. Said per capita tax shall be divided between the General Fund of the Grand Lodge and The Kansas Masonic Home, such division to be made each year by the Council of Administration with the approval of the Board of Directors of The Kansas Masonic Home in such proportions as will best meet the needs of both, and with the further provision that the portion allocated to The Kansas Masonic Home shall never be less than $1.50 per capita; Provided that any increase in the per capita tax shall become effective on the Lodge roll of membership determined on December 31 the following year." (Recommendation upon regular motion and second was adopted. Respectfully submitted,

GRAND MASTERS ADDRESS M:.W:. Arris M. Johnson briefly addressed the brethren: Brothers and Friends, Thank you for the high honor you have given to me and for your confidence. I promise that I will do my utmost to sustain your confidence and to do those things which will reflect honor upon this high office and which will benefit Kansas Masonry One of my concerns this morning is that we have lost sight, at least partially, of our wonderful heritage as Masons. Have you considered that we are at least among the oldest, and perhaps the oldest, institutions on earth? History and Scripture teach us that only those institutions which are worthy and which find approval in God's sight do survive! You owe it to yourself, to your brothers, and to those who are not yet Masons, to study and learn more about our great Fraternity so that we might be better men and Masons. We have all agreed to seek more and more light, and now is the time! Also, we need to keep sight of the fact that/ as our forebears were in operative fashion, so we are in speculative fashion, builders. We are truly building every day we are building character, building friendships, building a better social order and, most importantly, we are building that house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. But - might we not build better if we knew our working tools a little better? Again, I urge you to study to improve yourself in the great teachings of our Fraternity and to seek more and more light. We will then stand ready to discuss more knowledgeably when someone asks, "What is Masonry?" - or when our new member asks for an explanation - and we will feel better becuase it will help us to be better men and Masons. I believe we need to work together more closely with all of our brothers - and our sisters. All of our orders are worthy and valuable to all of the others. But we need to communicate and cooperate to a better degree. We need each other. We are all related through common ties. We are brothers and sisters. We need to help each other. We have done this and are doing it, but we can do better.• Let's give it a try! Be proud of Masonry and be proud to be a Mason! Let it show! We do^ have the oldest fraternity in the world. We are confident that our principles are sound - in fact, they are the soundest of principles. We have all of the working tools needed to make a good man a better man, and society a better place. We offer what, I believe, young people are seeking today - and we are seeing more young men coming to us. Think of what we have! The Grand Master of Iran in exile told us a month or so ago at the Grand Masters' Conference that he knew of 500 Masons who had been shot in his country - just because they were Masons! Stop and appreciate what we have. Pride and enthusiasm about Masonry is contagious! Let it show. I am not speaking as a coach trying to fire up his team I am dead serious. Don't be a pessimist. As someone has said, "In the long run, the pessimist may be right, but the optimist has a much better time." Someone else said, "This time, like all times, is a very good time if we but know what to do with it." If you find a path with no obstacles, it probably isn't leading anywhere. We have a tendency, as people, to look at the problems but forget to look at the bright side. We have lost in membership, but we have some great Masons. We are seeing a turnaround, I believe, and there is nothing wrong with Masonry. I believe we can have a very bright future, and that future is beginning right here - right now. Let's not ask, "why has this happened to us?" unless we also ask the same question for every joy and success we have had. You have, every one, been asked if you were duly and truly prepared, and you were taught to seek more light. Do you feel confident in what you know about Masonry? My challenge to you today is to - every single one of you - read at least one book on Masonry, think about it, incorporate it, and then go out and share it with your brothers and with all of mankind. I believe it will make a differenceTo paraphrase what M:.W:. Dunn, Grand Master of Colorado, said yesterday, let's be Masons, not just members. Remember, be Masons, not just members - and then, let it show!

1985 ADDRESS OF THE GRAND MASTER

To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas: I welcome each and every one of you to this 130th Annual Communication of the Grand Lodge of Kansas. One year ago you exalted me to the highest station in Kansas Masonry, a position which Involves great responsibility and honor, and I accepted It with humility and yet with a great sense of pride. I have endeavored to serve the Masons of Kansas with my labors, my travels, my judgment, and with my entire devotion. Early retirement allowed me to devote full time to this high office and yet there were things I had hoped to accomplish which fell short. Thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart for your confidence and support throughout this year. The many, many friends which will be mine throughout the rest of my life are a memorial to the wonder of Masonry. These friends are found, not only throughout this great Grand Jurisdiction, but throughout the United States and North America. Thank you my Brethren for allowing me this great privilege. As I have traveled this great Grand Jurisdiction, I find what I believe to be, one basic area of weakness among us. We as Masons do not know enough about our great Fraternity: its history, its laws, its landmarks, its philosophy and, most importantly, its meanings. I find only a few among us who can adequately answer the question, "What is a Mason?" or "What is Masonry?" Is it any wonder that our numbers are decreasing when we cannot adequately give an answer to a prospective member who asks us such a question! I have advocated the establishment of a Masonic Information program in each and every lodge as a part of the regular agenda of each meeting with the goal that each of us will become a better-informed and subsequently a better man and Mason. The several lodges who have installed such a program tell me that It is working by increasing attendance, creating interest, and by making Masonry more meaningful to each of the members. I urge every lodge in this Grand Jurisdiction to implement such a program. I believe that, just as we use the Compass to draw a circle by starting with the center, if we can become more knowledgeable as Masons, thereby getting the center of focus in proper perspective, other problems will then assume their proper perspectives. Council of Administration To R:.W:. Durward Danielson. R:.W:. Clifford Knauss, R:.W:. Claude Norrls and W;. Bob Nease, the Council of Administration, I say "Thank you for your dedication to Kansas Masonry and for your support throughout this year." They are all "good men and true" and have the interests of Masonry at heart. It has been an honor to work with you and I wish you great success in the future. To all who have been members of previous Councils of which I have been a part: M:.W:. Ben Boyles, M:.W:. Robert Jackson, M:.W:. Richard Porter and M: .W:. Lawrence Winegardner, thank you for your wisdom and support. I have learned much from them. Special Thanks My deep special thanks to to M:.W:. Ben B. Boyles, my Masonic Father, who appointed me as Grand Senior Deacon and who provided the opportunity to live and experience these past 5 years in the Grand Line. Thank you, Ben! Thank you, M: .W:. Warren Stams, for allowing me to serve as your Grand Junior Deacon. To all Past Grand Masters, I say a special thank you for your support and your wise counsel which you were always most willing to share. Thank you M: .W:. Arthur Hodgson, Chairman of Jurisprudence Committee, for your friendly and wise counsel which you always so willingly provided, when I asked for it. A very special thanks to each and every one of the appointive Grand Officers and their wives who so wholeheartedly supported the Grand Master and the Grand Lodge this year. They have traveled many miles to participate In and support the various activities of Grand Lodge. There are none better than you! Grand Lodge Staff A very sincere thank you to R: .W:. Albert Arnold, Grand Secretary, and the entire staff in the Grand Lodge office. You are special people who have done everything asked of you this year. Brother Al, your many years of experience have provided Insights and assistance which are invaluable. Thank you.

Hays Lodge 195 Thank you, my Brothers, for your great support throughout this year. You have supported me in every way and I appreciate it very much. You took charge of my reception on April 13 and did a magnificent job. We had a wonderful crowd and it was a weekend to remember. There were seven or eight full rows of Masons and their wives who stayed overnight in Hays and went to church with us on Sunday. Thanks for a wonderful memory! And I won't forget the green St. Patrick's top hat which you provided along with the black silk top hat, and which encouraged our then-two-year-old grandson, Chris, to sing out at nry installation, "Take it off. Grandpa!" Special Communication A Special Communication of Grand Lodge was called in Salina on Saturday, June 8, for the purpose of discussing and voting on the liability insurance package as previously voted on at our Annual Communication in March. There were some new developments, not apparent at the Annual Communication, which needed to be brought to light and discussed. Full discussion was allowed on the issue, following which a vote was taken on a motion to repeal the action of Grand Lodge Annual Communication. The vote repealed the action taken at Grand Lodge Annual Coranunication'whereby each lodge would have been required to become a part of the state-wide liability insurance program. A second vote removed the "Liability Insurance" recommendation as passed at the Annual Communication on March 16 and rescinded the By-law pertaining thereto. The Grand Master thanks all who made the effort to be present at this Special Communication to consider these important issues and for the full and honest discussion. Thank you for your brotherly love and for the peace and harmony in our Fraternity. The Kansas Masonic Foundation Your Kansas Masonic Foundation has seen a change this year when Curtis Carey resigned from his position as Executive Secretary in order to pursue further education and training to enter another career, and Jim Claussen has now assumed that office. Jim comes to us highly recommended, and is now getting into the swing of the office in good shape. He tells me that things are looking good at this point in time. We thank Don Horttor, President of the Foundation, for his leadership and for the great progress made by the Kansas Masonic Band which this year doubled in size. The Kansas Masonic Home The Masonic Home has become a very favorite place for me. As with a very high percentage of Kansas Masons, I was not familiar with our Kansas Masonic Home when I began to work in Grand Lodge. Please believe me when I say that it is an outstanding place and one which we can be most proud of. It is worthy of our best efforts and full support. The residents and the staff always make you want to return. The Grand Family held a Christmas party this last December for the residents. We actually had two parties, one for the Health Care residents and another for the residents on the West Side. What a wonderful Christmas for" all of us! I only wish you could all have been there to share it. To Jerry Lindenbaum and the entire staff at "the Masonic Home, we thank you. It has been most rewarding to work with you. I will continue to give you ray full support. To all of you I say, "Thank you and keep up the great work!" The Fact-finding Committee members who served so well last year were asked to remain but under a new name. The Advisory Committee. Almost all accepted. Thank you all. A committee consisting of R:.W:. Roger Selgel, W:. Basil Marhofer and W:. Kevin Peterson served as a nominating committee to provide names for members of the Masonic Home Board of Directors, as recommended and passed at our Annual Communication, March, 1985. Youth Groups You are our future and our hope. One only has to be with these good young people to realize that our future is secure. One only has to be with them while they participate in their organizations and to know what they are getting from DeMolay, Rainbow for Girls, and Job's Daughters to realize that these young people are special and that they are receiving something special which other organizations do not provide. We salute you for your good works and want you to know that you have our continued best wishes and support.

I was not privileged to be with the Rainbow for Girls and Job's Daughters at their annual meetings because of a conflict in time with the Rocky Mountain Conference. I was with the DeMolay young men at their annual conclave in Manhattan this year, and thank you for all of the honors and courtesies which you extended to me. Appendant and Concordant Bodies This has been a year of cooperation among all of the related Masonic bodies. It has been my real pleasure to cooperate with all of our brothers and sisters throughout this year. Brothers Bill Updegrove, Dave Snyder and Warner Pape of the Grand Royal Arch Chapter, Grand Commandery and Grand Council have been most cooperative and we have been together on a number of occasions: Great Bend for Grand Chapter and Grand Council; Phillipsburg for pin presentations; Topeka for Grand Commandery; and Hiawatha for pin presentations. Thanks Bill, Dave and Warner! Sister Ruth Cearley and the past three years as we feeling of cooperation and Worthy Grand Patron, Grand gether for special events.

I have worked together closely on calendars and events over prepared for and moved through our offices. We find-a great good will. On several occasions, the Worthy Grand Matron, Chapter officers. Grand Lodge officers, and I have been toI believe that we are one big family and need each other.

To the Potentates and Shrine members, I say thank you for your cooperation. You supported me on our trip to Imperial Shrine in Atlanta,- Georgia this last July where 46 of the Grand Masters were in attendance. You have encouraged your members to attend Masonic lodge and to develop a closer cooperation. You had a great Shrine Bowl game and program in Wichita this year where the All-Masonic Band did such a great job. You have been a visible part of our Fraternity. We do appreciate and thank you for all you have done. I have had the opportunity on several occasions to visit High-Twelve Clubs across the state. Thank you for allowing me to be your guest and to share some thoughts with you. The Scottish Rite bodies have been Liost cooperative and we thank you for the courtesies and honors' which you have given me. It was my pleasure to be initiated into the National Sojourners and also the Heroes of '76 this year. I was invited to attend the National Sojourners national convention in Oklahoma City and we had a great time. The program which they provide for our servicemen is terrific and again we had the pleasure of meeting many new friends. Thank you so much. To all of our concordant and appendant bodies, we appreciate you and hope that we will continue to work together for the benefit of all. Area Deputy Grand Masters and District Deputy Grand Masters From the beginning of the year I knew you would be a great group of men. Almost all of you were at Grand Lodge last year to be installed. The year began with your visiting the lodges of your District with the then-DDOl to "learn the ropes" and then attending the ADGM-DDGM School at the Masonic Home in Wichita in early February, Ruth Cearly, incoming Worthy Grand Matron, stole your hearts with her presentation and set the stage for the fine cooperation we have enjoyed throughout the year. To each and every one of you, and your fine work. Some of you ponded in full measure. You are group. Congratulations on a job

I express my sincerest appreciation for your dedication have been asked to do special tasks and you have resa great group of dedicated Masons and a most important well done.

Grand Lecturers and District Lecturers Thank you for your good work this year. We are now in the third year of the reduced proficiency program which was introduced by M:.W:. Richard A, Porter. Through M:.W:. J. Fred Williamson, Chairman of the Ritualistic Committee, I shared my views with you. They are that once we have initiated a Brother into our Fraternity, our obligations to him do not cease but have only begun. We can, as our worthy brother, Harry Carr, has said, take a good man and then make him a better man. We need to strengthen and fortify our study groups with Masonic Information so that we can learn, not only the ritual, but also its meaning. It is what happens to us in our minds and hearts which really makes us a Mason. I thank each of you for your support and good works this year. You have been faithful servants.

To M:.W:. J. Fred Williamson, thank, you for a job well done. There has been some concern shown at the same time as the visit of the District Deputy Grand Master*s visit trict Lecturer should also have "his desired goal.

this year over the visit of the District Lecturer District Deputy Grand Master, I recommend that the be his alone and that it be "his night". The Disnight" to allow him full time to accomplish his

Other Grand Jurisdictions It was our pleasure and privilege to visit several Grand Jurisdictions for their Grand Lodge Annual Communications and for other events. I attended Annual Communications in Oklahoma, South Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Texas and Colorado. I also attended Wyoming's Grand Lodge during the year I was Deputy Grand Master. I am happy that Virginia, my wife, was with me on Several of these trips and sorry that she could not be with me on all of them. We deeply appreciate the courtesies and the hospitality so cordially extended to us by these Grand Jurisdictions. At each of them we met new Masons and their wives who are now life-long friends. They are all most willing to discuss mutual problems and to share their wisdom and experience. M:,W:. Harland Benedict, Grand Master of Vtyoming, extended a special invitation to be with them at the Rocky Mountain Masonic Conference in July to share some of our Kansas experiences with them. It was a very worthwhile learning experience and we met and shared with Grand Officers of states out of our proximity: Nevada, Idaho, ^ntana, as well as Colorado and looming. We were privileged to have Al and Marge Arnold go with us. The Kansas Mason The KANSAS MASON editor. Gene Ramsey, has done a fine job this year. We are providing a special Grand Lodge edition this year to keep you informed of things pertaining to our Annual Communication. And we are still in the black! Thanks, Gene! New Roof on Grand Lodge Building We had accumulated enough funds in the account so that we could replace the roof on the Grand Lodge Building in Topeka which had served us for 60-plus years, the last few years to a degree a little less than satisfactorily. A defect in the guttering was also repaired - and it is all paid for! Consolidations We have had some consolidations this year. It is always sad to see a lodge which has provided the good things of Masonry to a community over the years reach a point where it can no longer function. Thinking it to be in the best interests of all concerned, I have permitted those lodges who requested consolidation to proceed, making sure that they are aware of the by-laws which govern such a process. We had one lodge which chose to relinquish its charter. We encourage all the members of that lodge to search for a lodge who will accept them as members and not drop from our membership. Special Events It is always a special event to be able to present 25-, 50-, and 60-year pins and recognitions. I have had the pleasure to present many such awards this year, some in closed lodge, many in open presentations, and several in private homes and nursing homes. We treasure these good and faithful Masons who have served for these many years and wish them continued health and enjoyment of Masonry. All such events are memorable but one stands out. On June 25, the Grand Lodge officers were privileged to be in Atwood to present Brother Bob Bearley his 75-year pin and his son. Brother John Bearley, his 50-year pin. So far as we can discern, this is a Masonic first, ever, to have a father-son, 75-50-year pin presentation at the same time. There were 511 years of Masonry represented in the Atwood lodge that evening among those who were actually present in the Bearley family! Our sincerest congratulations go to Brothers Bob and John and to the entire Bearley family. Bob's younger brother, Gus, is a 73-year member and will soon be receiving his 75-year pin. I understand that his son plans to receive his 50-year pin at the same time. What a record! We were privileged as Grand Lodge officers, to place a permanent Past Grand Master marker on the grave of M:.W:. William Harrison in Downs on May 18. Helen Harrison, wife of PGM Bill, and her two sons, Bill and Bogue, were with us for the beautiful

ceremony. That day also included a reception for your Grand Master in the afternoon and a 100th Anniversary for the Eastern Star Chapter in Downs, We have had the privilege of breaking ground for two new lodge buildings this year: Columbus on March 21 and Garden City on June 5. The Garden City lodge also held a buffalo feed and a 100th Anniversary celebration on the same evening! Other lodges also held 100th Anniversaries this year: Waverly, St. John, and Lenora. Humboldt had their 125th this year. Congratulations to all of you! Stanley Lodge held a Dedication ceremony on the completion of their building this year. Alta Vista, whose lodge burned only a short while back, has now built a new building and on March 2 will hold a mortgage burning and Dedication of the new building. Congratulations to you both. We as Grand Lodge Officers laid the cornerstone for Silver Lake Methodist Church in July. We are most appreciative of the opportunity to share with these groups in their attainments. A few other events seem to stand out in my recollections of this year. The Old Oak Tree meeting at Little River this fall where a large crowd from all over our Grand Jurisdiction was present, was a highlight. What a privilege to receive the real lambskin! The Riley outdoor meeting was one of several outdoor meetings, all of which were memorable. But the Riley meeting stands out because a horse ate part of the roof off ray car! I thought the insurance man would be surprised - but he wasn't. Rock Springs Labor Day weekend was a success again this year, even though it was a bit hot. We do recommend it as the most relaxing weekend of the year where you can enjoy a non-structured time of fellowship with Masons and families. Rulings 1. I ruled, after consultation with the Jurisprudence Committee, that a member who refused to pay the special three-dollar assessment for the Masonic Home should be considered delinquent and dropped from membership for non-payment of dues at the end of the prescribed time. 2. One of our lodges which had made a tape recording of the esoteric work for use with a candidate, was reprimanded, admonished never to allow such practice to occur in the future, directed to turn over the tape(s) immediately to my personal representative, and to get on with the conferral of degrees for those in waiting. 3. I reaffirmed the rulings of previous Grand Masters not to allow the use of alcoholic beverages in the Sallna Masonic Temple. 4. I ruled that Osage Valley Lodge No. 24 at Osawatomie be allowed to keep some of their funds in a special account so long as the Treasurer retains control of the account as stated in By-law 3-308. 5. I ruled that Osage Valley Lodge No. 24 may, at their own discretion, require a new member to pass a proficiency exam on the Third Degree. 6. I ruled that a lodge may not confer work upon more than one candidate at the same time except those portions as stated in By-law 4-212. CoTnnrl.tteemen My sincere thanks go to all of you for your willingness to serve and for the fine work you have done. I have not given some of you the direction I had Intended and I apologize for that. Tou have all done well what you were asked to do and what the job required. Thank you very much. Widow's Pins We have this year designed and secured a supply of Widow's Fins to be used by those lodges ^ I c h choose to do so. They are a beautiful pin which some of our widows have now received with great appreciation. Each lodge is encouraged to provide a meaningful ceremony, appropriately timed, to present these pins and thereby help to make our Masonic widows feel secure, wanted and appreciated. These pins may be secured from the Grand Secretary at a nominal cost.

North American Grand Masters' Conference As Deputy Grand Master, it was my pleasure to attend the North American Grand Masters* Conference in tfyrtle Beach, South Carolina, in February, 1985. It is a great place to share ideas and solutions to problems. Your Grand Master was honored to be elected to serve as Chairman of the Planning Committee for the next North American Grand Masters* Conference in Arlington, Virginia, in February, 1986. What a pleasure to serve with such a distinguished group of Masons from all over North America and with some who come from Central America.

My Family A man could not ask for more or better support than has been mine through the past several years from my entire family. Virginia, my wife and First Lady of Kansas Masons, has been most supportive, has devoted much of her time, has given good counsel, has planned many special programs and activities (such as the Masonic Home Christmas party for the residents), and, in every way, been a great First Lady of Kansas Masons. Thank you, my First Lady! To Pam, Stuart, Jeff and Chris McGowne (our daughter and family), thanks for all of the times you supported us in so many ways, when you took care of our home while we were gone, when you fed our dog, and for making us feel good to be home again. Thank you again for the beautiful quilt which you and Mom made and presented to me at my installation (and which has been talked about over our state). Thanks to my Mother, Mrs. Lydia Johnson, a great lady who has met and conquered many trials in life but who always smiles and goes on. She says she is proud of her son. Thanks, Mom! Thanks to my sister, Mrs. Elda Dickenson, for your support, not just this year, but always. GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU! Arris M. Johnson Grand Master

P R O C L A M A T I O N WHEREAS: Freemasonry proudly acknowledges St. John the Baptist and St. John the Evangelist as its Patron Saints, honors their memory, points to their lives in its ritualistic work, and dedicates its Lodges to them, and WHEREAS:

The annual observance of the Feasts of Sts. John has occupied a place of primary importance in the activity of every Craft Lodge,

NOW THEREFORE, I, Arris M. Johnson, Grand Master of Freemasons in Kansas, do hereby proclaim a general and simultaneous observance of the Feast of St. John the Baptist by the Lodges of this jurisdiction on Sunday, June 23rd, 1985. For the purpose herein set forth, I am asking the Lodges to begin at once to make plans for attendance at a service of Divine worship as a Lodge or as a group of Lodges to proclaim and observe this festive day. It is understood that a Church must first extend an invitation and that acceptance of the invitation must be agreeable to the. brethren of the Lodge, all in keeping with the spirit of the General Regulations of Masonry. I call upon all Master Masons to join with Masonic Brethren and participate with their Lodges in the act of Divine worship so rich in Masonic tradition. I ask the full cooperation of all Masonic and related organizations of whatever rite, name or title, that they urge their membership to worship with the brethren of their Lodges on this Sunday nearest the Feast of St. John for the purpose of rededlcation of Masonic ideals.

REPORT OF THE NECROLOGY COMMITTEE M:.W:. Carroll C. Arnett, PGM, presented the following report which, on his motion, was accepted. At the conclusion of the report, prayer was offered by W:. Conrad F. Johnson, Grand Chaplain. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: Most worshipful Grand Master and brethren, it is with sorrow and sadness that we approach the time of recognizing the severing of links from our Fraternal chain of Brotherly Love. Yet we must accept the fact that the moment we are born, we are destined to die. All mortals must put on immortality in order that we may have eternal lifeSince our last Grand Lodge Session, approximately 1*824 of our brethren have laid down their working tools of life, leaving us not to "fill their shoes", but rather to rededicate our lives to better serving God and man by more diligently carrying out the principles of our great fraternity. The circle of our Past Grand Masters eind present Grand Lodge Officers has not been broken this year. We are thankful that most of them are with us today to lead and direct us in the paths that lead to more glorious work. We mourn the passing of two widows of Past Grand Masters: Mrs. Marie L. McGinness, May 4, 1985; and Mrs. Lorraine Ecord, September 28, 1985. The Masonic and Eastern Star "world" was shocked and saddened by the untimely passing of Ruth Cearley, Worthy Grand Matron, in a car accident on March 13, 1986. Our Grand Master and she had worked together the past year in holding joint open meetings throughout the state. W:. Floran A. Rodgers passed away March 11, 1986. He had served on ten Grand Lodge Committees; received the Bronze Distinguished Service Award from the Grand Chapter of • R.A.M. in 1982; and published and edited the Kansas Masonic Journal for many years. Also, George E. Gustafson of Clay Center who was Grand Pursuivant in 1977. At the time of his passing he was serving as Grand Representative to the Grand Lodge of Sweden. He Died on June 21, 1985On October 15, 1985, John D. Montgomery of Junction City passed away. He was on the first Board of Trustees to our Kansas Masonic Foundation. His appointment came in June . of 1966, as soon as the corporate papers had been received. While still a young man, he was twice a Congressional candidate, chairman of the state highway commission, a close advisor to three governors, and a vigorous member of the Kansas Board of Regents. Always busy and on the go, he was a gentleman and friend whose giving for his nation, state, community and fellow man far exceeded his tciking. Henry O. "Hank" Bennett, Topeka, died of cancer on Monday, July 15, 1985, at his home. He worked for the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Kansas from 1965 to 1977. He was a 54-year member of Topeka Lodge No. 17, A.F. s A.M., and on March 19, 1975, he was awarded the Distinguished Service Award, highest award given to a Kansas Mason. He served as Assistant Grand Secretary of the Grand Lodge of Kansas, A.F. & A.M., from 1965 to 1975. As stated by the Grand Secretary, "Notable in my memory of Hank will be two things that so demonstrate the qualities of this wonderful person. Even though he had retired from employment for the Grand Lodge and the Grand York Rite, he still returned on many occasions to assist or advise when a particular problem demanded his experience and talents. Thus it was that he visited the "upstairs" office on his seventieth birthday. When reminded this was his birthday, he was heard to say 'Yes, each day from now on is a gift of grace'." We are thankful for the enrichment our departed brethren have brought to our lives, and for the service they have given to our fraternity. Man is born broken. He lives by mending. The grace of God is the glue. To the families of these departed brethren, we offer our sincere condolence In eulogizing the lives of these departed brethren and friends, the author of the following poem FREEDOM by James John Redman, Jr., an Air Force Airman stationed at Nellis Air Base near Las Vegas, Nevada, a Past Master Councilor of the Lancaster Chapter of DeMolay in Lancaster, California, and is a Representative DeMolay who was inspired to write this poem during his recruit training, best summarizes our love to them:

Proceedings of the

March

I watched the flag pass by one day It fluttered in the breeze, A young Marine saluted it, And then he stood at ease.

I heard the sound of taps one night When everything was still, I listened to the bugle play And felt a sudden chill.

I looked at him in uniform So young, so tallÂť so proud His hair cut square, his ears alert. He would stand out in any crowd.

I wondered how many times before That taps had meant Amen When "Our Flag" covered a coffin Of a brother or a friend.

I thought how many men like him , Had fallen through the years. How many died on foreign soil How many mothers' tears.

I thought of all the children Of the mothers and the wives. Of fathers, sons, and^husbands" With their interrupted lives.

How many pilots' planes shot down. How many died at sea. How meiny foxholes soldiers' graves. No I Freedom is not free.

I thought about a graveyard At the bottom of the sea. And those unmarked graves at Arlington No! Freedom is not free.

Respectfully submitted. Carroll C- Arnett, POl, chairman

ADVANCE PROCEEDINGS Copies of the Advance Reports for the 130th Annual Communication of the M:.W:. Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas were distributed to the brethren in attendance.

REPORT OF THE GRAND TREASURER M: .W: . William F. Mcintosh, PGM, Grand Treasurer, presented the TreasxirerVs Report which, on his motion, was accepted and made a part of the minutes. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodae of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: I*m pleased to report that the finances of the Grand Lodge are in excellent condition. We had roughly $20,000 more income than was budgeted. This was in a large measure due to a greater amount of interest received than was anticipated, and an increase in merchandise sales. We also spent approximately $58,000 less than was budgeted due largely to reduced costs of printing and mailing THE KANSAS MASON and in expenditures for last yeeir's Annual Communication. There were several other items which were less than budgeted, but I have highlighted the two larger ones. Because of the increased income and the decreased expenses, we show a gain in the year's operation amounting to $84,013.79. Of this amount, the Council of Administration has previously approved setting aside a contijigency fund of $35,000 to be used in repairing the foundation of the Grand Lodge building. The foundation has deteriorated noticeably in recent years, and work will have to be done very soon. You will recall that we set aside a sum of $30,000 to help pay for a new roof for the Grand Lodge building. This was accomplished at a cost of nearly $60,000. The remaining funds came from the general operating account. But the new roof is in place and, I think, a very handsome one at that. The report of the Auditor is published below: In accordance with staindard accounting and audit procediires, I have audited the Grand Ijodge records for the period February 1, 1985, through January 31, 1986. The records were maintained on the cash method of accounting. The results are reflected in the following exhibits:

REPORT OP THE GRAND SECRETARY R: .W:. Albert O. Arnold, Jr., Grand Secretary, gave the following report which, on his motion, was received and referred to the Reports of Grand Officers Comnittee. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: This report is submitted in accordance with ARTICLE VI, Section 9 of our Constitution and By-laws 2-110 and 2-111. The estimation of income and expenses for this year are also included. Annual Reports With regret, once again, we must supply an estimation of the statistical data, owing to the fact several of the Lodges did not make report as required elsewhere in our laws. Last year, the Committee on Chartered Lodges and Lodges U.D. did recommend that the several Lodges failing to make report by the 10th of January be denied representation at the Anniial Communication. This action is in conformation with By-law 2-301. This also means withholding mileage and per diem. A thirty day grace period was allowed but, unfortunatiely, several of the Lodges have again failed to make report. The loss of time and funds in making transmittal to our Kansas Masonic Home cries out for more stringent action. Per Capita Tax Several secretaries have again complained that they did not have enough dues to pay the per capita tax. tty Brothers, the per capita tax is a part of the dues structure. Per capita tax for 1985 was collected when you collected your dues last year. Once again, I recommend that you place your per capita tax in a separate interestbearing account. Dues collected the previous September or October would thus earn a full year's interest before payment is due. The dues collected this year includes the per capita tax which is due on or before January 10, 1987. You should not have to pay per capita out of dues collected next year. Mailing Address changes are being forwarded to us on a daily basis. Brother Secretaries, we thank you. We estimate address changes number 17 to 18 thousand each year. Still we are disappointed to find quite a number of you sending us members* names with a city as the only address. The result is many calls wondering why the KANSAS MASON is not being received. The truth is that many are being returned for want of a complete address at a cost of 30c. So please take care to include a post office box or street address. Dual/Plurai Memberships The handling of these tjrpes of memberships would seem to be a simple matter. Yet we are confronting more and more problems in this area. This is particularly true of dual memberships which, as you may remember, is with other jurisdictions. Five times during this past year we were faced with the proposition of asking our Grand Master and Grand Masters of other jurisdictions to Intervene. Even at this moment, I am not sure about the outcome of two cases. The Brothers involved were so disenchanted with our efforts to work out the differences, and/or the fact that differences existed in our laws, that one or both may just give up Masonry in disgust. We have prepared copies of our By-laws pertaining to dual and plural memberships for your use. Please take at least one back to your home Lodge. We ask that you follow the requirements very carefully. All dual and plural membership transactions must be processed through each Grand Secretary's office. Remember, you must pay dues in both Lodges until due process of withdrawal, otherwise you are subject to suspension for non-payment of dues in each Lodge. Our (Kansas) laws do give a grace period of 120 days to notify the Brother before action is taken. The simplest thing will solve our problem in this area - it is called comnunication. The Grand Lodge Building This year it became increasingly evident that a new roof was badly needed. The Council of Administration ordered me to forward request for bids to Kansas firms.


50

Proceedings of the

March

Bids were examined for repair, removal and replacement, and/or other recommendations by the contractors. Tile Roofers of Topeka was the successful bidder. A thermo-guard was placed next to the sheeting and new cement tile placed over the top. Ventilators were also Installed and insulation added. The material used carries a 50-year warranty. The roof which we replaced had been in place for 69 years. The large window at the head of the stairs was replaced. This is a very noticeable improvement. We feel assured that these actions will result in still further savings in heat and air-conditioning costs, as well as enhancing the over-all beauty of our building. We were indeed surprised to receive so many calls from within the community regarding the replacement of our roof and the new window. All-were most favorable, including, a call from the State Architect. Although his office is nearly two blocks away, from his sixth floor location he watched with keen interest as work progressed. He highly complimented this project as did many other callers and visitors. This Citadel of Kansas Masonry is recognized as one of the finest examples of Gothic architecture in the midwest. We do regret that with all of the planning our forefathers did for this beautiful structure, they did not take parking into consideration. Yet, as more and more buildings are being razed in downtown Topeka, more space is available. The new building across the street, west of us, has public parking. Then too, when the legislature is not in session, there is generally other on-street parking available. Library and Museum We have now completed the sorting and filing of Past Grand Masters' papers. You may recall that these papers were formerly stored in the vault through 1978. It, of course, does not include all of our Grand Masters. • We continue to receive items for our Library and Museum. Thank you for this remembrance. We are now in great need of additional display cases. If you know of a reasonable source, please do let us know. On May 14, 1985, Arthur A. Neuber, Topeka, Kansas, donated the following items to the Library and Museinn of the Grand Lodge of Kansas: One - Bonayne's Hand-Book of Freemasonry, Edmond Ronayne, Ezra A.

Dues - Charity - Insurance Each year as we prepare for the Annual Communication, we check the average dues paid by the Lodges in this Grand Jurisdiction. During the last ten years the members of our Lodges have increased their dues more than 100%. In 1975, the average dues for a Kansas Lodge was $8.90 - this year it is $18.90. During that same period, per capita was raised from $4.00 to $5.00 in 1978, and another dollar was added in 1980 - a 50% increase. In supplying these figures, I could not refrain from wondering if we will raise dues another 112% in the next decade? That would amount to $40.06. Still, my Brethren, I am concerned. Too many Lodges are consolidating. Yes, we know the continual loss of members is having its affect but, again, I would remind you that we have never had to consolidate a Lodge because its dues were too high. I strongly encourage you to continue to monitor your costs and income. It would appear inflation is under control and yet, I fear, many Lodges have not yet adjusted their dues with today's standards. Charity must receive direct attention in this connection. But a few short years ago, requests asked for assistance generally amounting to two or three hundred dollars. Now we report receiving requests for assistance amounting to thousands of dollars.. We found one Lodge which recently assisted a widow In paying the balance due on her surgery - the cost, $7,000. Just this past month, a Lodge was asked to assist a widow who needed $3,000. Could your Lodge have paid either of these bills? Yes, your Grand Lodge Charity Fund is used, but the increasing costs are unbelievable. Insurance is still accounting for many questions. In preparing my report to you, at first I thought it best not to give more than passing attention to this subject. Still, a number of you have called or have written asking about direction. Many, many have asked if Grand Lodge was still going to adopt some sort of program. As you know from our Grand Master's report, no action is recommended; nor do I know of any future plans in this direction. However, I do strongly caution you to have insurance. Recently we returned from visiting a neighboring Grand Jurisdiction. reported a litigation experienced by one of their Lodges.

Sadly, they

The story is related about the Lodge in question needing a new roof on their Temple. Contract was let and work progressing when one of the workmen fell, suffering serious injury. Financial assistance was requested by the injured party. No insurance was available. The workman sued the Lodge. When the Lodge could not produce insurance, their Grand Lodge was sued. Finally, the Grand Lodge was disengaged from the suit. The attorneys for the plaintiff then sued the individual Lodge Officers. A settlement was eventually reached on a fair sum which the Grand Lodge paid to save their Lodge and its Officers. Although settlement was less than the original suit, the time involved, attorney's fees and legal costs amounted to a tidy sum. How much coverage should a Lodge carry? Yes, we are aware of proposals before our state legislature. But, my Brothers, the $1,000,000 amount is only a story at this point. The best suggestion we can make is to accept the recommendation of your insurance agent. Income and Expenses On the following page you will find an Estimate of 1986 Income and Expenses. Please do note that in order to conform with the Special Assessment, it was necessary to include this estimation in the over-all figure. The actual budget is for $440,167. This amount is $9,500 less than last year. Three years ago, the Finance Committee and Council of Administration and your Grand Lodge Staff carefully studied our needs. By every standard we could apply, it appeared we would need an increase, the principal amount going to our Kansas Masonic Home. This did not come to pass. However, it was decided to continue updating and repairs on the Grand Lodge building. The great hope of energy conservation and wise investment, fortunately, has proven to have been a wise move. Both of these factors have worked to our advantage. One other point must be observed. Our Kansas Masonic Foundation now is making regular contributions to the upkeep and mainainence of the building. The National Economy has certainly been another factor in our favor. Yet, we are seeing signs of increases. Little attention is paid to second and third class mail.


52

Proceedings of the

March

This we use quite extensively. In third-class the increase has been from 6c to 7.4c, or almost 25%. We fear much the same for second-class which we use for mailing the KANSAS MASON. Property reappraisal is being widely discussed around the Capitol at this time. While we would hope for a more equitable assessment base for all of our citizens, in the long run, I feel sure we will all experience a raise. But for now, we are very proud of our Finance Committees and Grand Treasurers - we have had two of each during the last five years, and each has performed in a very comtnendable manner. I must also bring to your attention a hard working staff at your Grand Lodge. We endeavor to make wise use of the funds you have alloted for this operation. Appreciation What a very pleasant year this has been for your staff at Grand Lodge. There have been problems and situations needing particular attention, yet our Grand Master in his gentle but firm way and a supportive Council of Administration have taken it all in stride while keeping the best interest of the Fraternity paramount at all times. To our Grand Master, our very deepest appreciation for your wise, capable and always cheerful leadership. To the Council of Administration, thank you my Brothers, we couldn't possibly do it without you. To the Consnittees and Chairmen, thank you again and again. To a very loyal and dedicated staff, individually and collectively, I commend them each - Rachael Gilbert, Arlene Mahrle, Jack Werner, my everything assistant R:.W:. Halbert G. Horton, and the newest employee W:. Charles Baldry; and not to be forgotten, my secretary, Jean Rader. It is a real and sincere pleasure to serve with and for you, each and everyone. Thank you again and again for this opportunity. Fraternally submitted, Albert 0. Arnold, Jr. Grand Secretary

REPORT OP THE CORRESPONDENCE COMMITTEE W:. Kenneth Dooley, chairman, gave the following report which, on his motion, was accepted. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.P. S A.M. of Kansas: Reading the Proceedings from other Jurisdictions has been an interesting experience. I have enjoyed the work and hope many Masons will read the review and find something of interest. I have tried to select the most applicable and, I hope, valuable information from the 24 Proceedings I have reviewed. The Grand Lodge Proceedings of the United States and other countries make it possible to exchange the information of the programs and activities of the over four and one-half million Masons throughout the world. The Grand Jurisdictions have developed many programs for Improvement. A large number of Grand Lodges have programs to increase membership and improve attendance. Attendnnre A year ago, the Grand Master of the District of Columbia outlined afonr-year program of "Working in the Garden of Masonry" and a series of goals which are beginning to show results. They have had increased attendance at both Grand Lodge and regular lodge functions. The Grand Master states that the keys to his four-year program of Masonic improvement are Enthusiasm, Leadership and Cooperation. The Grand Master of Iowa appointed Four Task Forces to study the aspects of Masonic environment - the Social, Economic, Political and Technological EnvironmenCs. The Grand Master of Rhode Island directed that two programs be carried out this year. He asked "that each lodge form a visitation committee to contact each member of the lodge". In each district he directed that a "Guest N i ^ t " be held "wherein non^Iasons and their families be invited to a lodge for an evening of fellowship, during which time an excellent film, provided by the Shrine-Masons, be shown". The Grand Master of New York reports that tlie "Operation Turn-Around" program is succeeding. The purpose of the program is to have heal thy, vibrant lodges and to monitor and help with the program in all 870 lodges throughout the state. The New York Committee on Lodge Attendance reported: "The principal reason for a significant 'TurnAround' has in every case been inspired, enthxzsiastic leadership by the Master and his officers.

A study will be made to see if the Life Membership program can be made workable.

In Georgia a bill was rejected to change the wording of the Masonic Code from "It is un-Masonic conduct for a Mason to apply for or to procure a license to sell intoxicants ...." to "It is un-Masonic conduct for a Mason to sell or manufacture in any method Illegal Intoxicants of any nature".

The Grand Master of Missouri reports that "if we assume that the 23% loss through failure to advance and the near 2% loss for non-payment of dues is typical over the last twenty-four years, then if they had rust occurred, instead of a loss of slightly more than 1,400 members per year on an average, we would have held our own".

This committee provides services to all 13 Veteran's Hospitals throughout the state. State of the Craft "In Japan we continue to decline in membership, our members continue to be suspended for non-payment of dues" - the Grand Master reports. The Grand Master of Washington reports: "We will still show a loss In membership this year. The strength of Masonry, however, should not be judged by numbers alone. Our strength will be measured and determined by how well we instill in our initiates the beauty and worth of Masonry and this can only be done by education and example. I believe the future of Masonry rests upon the attention we give to these three areas Masonic Education, Charity and the Spiritual Aspects of Masonry." The Grand Master of Iowa reports: "Taking into account the many factors over which we have no control that affects our fraternity, the state of the craft - by and large is healthy. Lodge size seems to have little to do with lodge strength. Lodge leaders who can move and motivate their membership, are the key to Masonry's future and vitality. Membership Statistics Jurisdiction

Kansas Masonic All-State High School Band As we move into the third year of this highly successful new activity, the ancillary benefits to Kansas Masonry are becoming increasingly evident. The young students participating in the band are returning home to their communities and familes with enthusiastic reports, and a new outlook on Masonry and Masonic principles of making good people better. The first reports are beginning to come through of young men who have been band members being raised in various Lodges throughout the state. In August, the five day band camp ation with the East-West Shrine Bowl year from all around Kansas - nearly were sponsored by 130 Lodges, Shrine With leadership from gently, created lasting at the Masonic Home was an enriching experience

was held at Wichita State University in collaborfootball game. 163 young people participated this doubling the first year's enrollment. Students Units, Eastern Star Chapters and individual Masons.

the Wichita State faculty and staff, the students rehearsed dilifriendships and became a fine musical marching tjnlt. A concert a big hit with the residents there and again gave the students and memories of Masonic purposes.

The band led the game-day parade and then moved to the stadium for pre-game, half-time and post-game performances. The television coverage offered thousands of Kansans the opportunity to see the best of our youth in action. A huge marching formation of our Square and Compass emblem on the field in honor of our M:.W:. Grand Master was an inspiring highlight of the band's performance. We particularly thank Brad Bone, Wichita State Band Director, for his energy and commitment in training and developing this band. The students grew both as people and musicians imder his leadership.

This year the band will appear at the Shrine Bowl Game in August at the University of Kansas in Lawrence. Plans are being readied now for 200 students to continue our growth. We thank all those \rtio helped sponsor one or more students during the past two years and encourage their continued support, and solicit other Lodges and Masonic units to join in this experience. You and your communities will be the richer for helping. C-Club Fund Raising Program The individual contributions of Kansas Masons throughout all of the United States continues to be the primary source of charitable dollars for your Kansas Masonic Foundation, Although a solicitation mailing did not go out early in 1985, contributions continued all through the year from dedicated members. In December we did send a mailing to the 61,000 members of Kansas Lodges, and the response has been quite favorable. As of this writing (the end of January), we have received contributions from 1,995 Brothers in response to this solicitation with many new "C-Club" pins going out to those whose contributions have reached a total of $100. It is encouraging to note that during the initial period of response we gained 359 new members of the "C-Club". We now have 42 members who are entitled to wear the Ruby "C-Club" Pin which is presented with our thanks after contributions total $500. A plaque in special recognition of those members who have contributed a total of $1,000 to the "C-Club" will be going to 14 of our members with special appreciation. Each Mason who contributes to the "C-Club" has his name placed on a "C-Club Plaque" in his home lodge. Unfortunately, we have encountered structural problems with these plaques and during the year we called back the plaques for repair and renovation. This proved to be a more difficult task than anticipated and has taken longer than we planned. For this we apologize to all of our contributing Brothers because we know the esteem in which these plaques are held by each Lodge. Hopefully, by the time this is reported, we will have corrected the problems and have each plaque back in its place of honor where it belongs. Total contributions to the "C-Club" for our fiscal year 1985-86, to date, are $67,583. Revenues for the entire year from "C-Club" Memberships will probably be down due to the reduced mail solicitation. Since its inception in 1981, over 7,000 Kansas Masons have become members of our "C-Club" enabling an increase In the benefits from Masonic charity. The Kansas Masonic Oncology Clinic This Clinic, established In 1974 and located at the University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City, continues to be the primary beneficiary of our Foundation. The basic grant to the Clinic was continued at the level of $82,330. Additional funds are identified and sent directly to the Clinic from the Foundation. All proceeds, over and above expenses, from the All-State High School Band and the "C-Club" campaign are dedicated to the Clinic. This multi-disciplinary treatment and research center for Cancer is another visible statement of Masons* concern for our fellow-man and woman. Our grant is paying some or all of four staff positions: a nurse-clinician, a social worker, a pharmacist and a pediatric nurse, as well as helping to provide certain needed equipment. Our funds, as well as direct contributions from Lodges and individual Masons, are providing the latest and best in treatment and care for over 500 patients a month about 150 of whom are children. We can all be proud that our emblem of the Square and Compass hangs prominently in their cheery waiting room. Plans are underway to create a video-tape program about the Clinic to take around the State and show to Masons, their families and interested citizens. Student Loan Program Each year, a limited number of low-interest educational loans are available to qualified Kansas students to help finance their university, college or technical school education. After completion of studies, these loans are payable over four years at a 5% Interest rate. Inquiries should be made directly to the Foundation Office in Topeka. During 1985 we added two new students to our loan program. Currently, 14 students are in school and receiving aid and 17 students have completed their studies and are in the process of repaying their loans. Since the inception of this program, 25 students have completed repayment of their loans.

We are also serving as Trustee and Agent for two other student loan programs \irtiich were started as memorials by families and friends of departed Brothers. AS of December 31, 1985, we have $73,000 in student loans outstanding. Permanent and Designated Fxinds During fiscal year 1985, the Foundation continued strong growth in its basic funds which generate the interest used to fund our various charitable activities. These funds grew from $681,874 in 1984 to $803,830 in 1985. These figures are derived from our annual independent audit, a copy of which is available on request. This growth results from an increase in major gifts and bequests, and continued use of our "Living Memorial" program by which individual Lodges, families and friends may contribute to our permanent funds in honor of departed Brothers. In addition, the Foundation serves as Trustee and Agent for a number of estates and living trusts which are not reflected in our own operating statement. This service is available to Kansas Masons and their families with assurance of professional management and continued safety at a reasonable cost. Additional financial information follows at the end of this report. Lodge Foundation Committees Each of our 361 Lodges has as one of its standing committees a "Masonic Foundation Committee". The purpose of these committees is to inform the Brothers of the activities of the Foundation and encourage Masons to remember the Foundation in their annual chariteible gifts. These committees represent the Foundation in their local Lodges and communities and, we hope, help the members become informed of our programs and activities. The Foundation staff and Board Members stand ready to assist in your local community in any way we can.

REPORT OF TRIALS AND PUNISHMENTS COMMITTEE M:.W:. John H. Murray, PGM, Chairman, gave the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:,W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: During the past year, the committee has acted on two cases for which trials were conducted as follows: 1. A Kansas Mason was charged with violating his Masonic duty and with conduct unbecoming a Mason as the result of charges filed against him in Florida of committing arson, burning to defraud insurance and committing insurance fraud. Upon a finding of guilty, he was sentenced to a jail term and probation. The brother was notified to appear; however, he did not appear and no one represented him at the Masonic trial and, after taking testimony, the committee found that he was guilty and that he should be expelled. 2. A brother was charged with nine counts of committing indecent liberties with a child to which he pleaded giiilty to three of the nine counts and was sentenced to imprisonment for not less than three nor more than ten years. Upon the Masonic trial, he was found guilty of violating his Masonic duty and with conduct unbecoming a Mason with the penalty that he should be expelled. Even though this is a working committee, the Chairman and members of the committee appreciate the fact that they have had little activity this past year, and your Chairman certainly appreciates the response by members of the committee to those matters that have been assigned to us and we appreciate the cooperation of the lodge officers, and particularly the lodge secretaries, >*io have assisted in arranging time and place of trials. We thank the Grand Master for letting us assist. Respectfully submitted, John H. Murray, PGM, Chairman Kevin R. Peterson Richeurd A. Porter Basil Marhofer J. Wayne Pipkin

Since writing this report, two additional con^laints have been submitted. Notices have been served, however, have not been tried, so will go over to the next committee. J.H.M.

REPORT OF FOREIOJ RELATIONS COMMITTEE M:.W:. Forrest D. Haggard, PGM, Chairman, gave the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: It is a privilege to have served this Grand Lodge and our Grand Master, Arris M. Johnson. We thank you for this opportunity to serve Freemasonry in this manner. We express appreciation, also, to the office of our Grand Secretary and to his staff for their fine work in correspondence and communication throughout this entire year. Our thanks to our Grand Representatives who have maintained contact with their respective cotmterparts In various Foreign Grand Jurisdictions. Fraternal Fellowship is a vital link in today's fractured world society. We were glad to have a report on the growth of the newly recognized Grand Lodge of Spain. They plan to be in attendance at the Conference of Grand Masters this February. They state: "At this stage only people with great courage are joining the Brotherhood." And, "it is not always easy (to work and grow) in a society that only a few years ago was teaching (in their school system) that we (Freemasons) have to wear a cap to hid our horns." Perhaps it is only \^en we lose the rights of a "free society" that we understand the importance of such gifts.

There are already nineteen "Grand Lodges" in Brazil that are given some form of recognition. We are informed that a new (another) Grand Lodge is now being formed and asking for recognition; it is called the "Grande Loja Do Estado De Mato Grosso". It seems to be recognized by the other Grand Lodges of Brazil, and its declared principles are in order with Recognized Freemasonry, but we will give it time. Part of the public relations problem that we have in Masonry is caused by spurious, so-called "masons" such as the group from Haiti. We have reports of non-recognized groups in Greece (Grand Chapter of Greece) or the "The Respectable Loge Goethe" of France. We get requests for Information or money from such groups, and they need to be ignored. Sometimes such groups write to individual Masons or lodges - so beware. Among the "unusual": the withdrawal from his office of the Grand Master of Switzerland; and the difficulty between the Grand Master of New Mexico and the Sovereign Commander A. & A.S.R. Southern Jurisdiction. The major item of change in Freemasonry, this year, is the sudden awareness of the opposition to Freemasonry from religious circles both "mainline" and "fundamentalist" groups. This is world-wide In its happening and has captured.the attention of Grand Lodges from Great Britain to Australia. Your chairman is addressing this problem in a keynote speech to the Grand Masters of Masons in North America in their 1986 Session. We have no recommendations to bring forward at the time of writing this advanced report. Fraternally submitted, Forrest D. Haggard, PGM, Chairman David L. Recob Darrell Shanteau

REPORT OP OPERATION "KAN" COMMITTEE W:. Glenn L. Knapp, Chairman, submi tted the following report which, on his motion, was accepted. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.P. s A.M. of Kansas: Operation "KAN" is a program sponsored by the Grand Lodge of Kansas in pointing the newly made amputee and their family in the right direction, so that they may continue to lead a fruitful life. All newly made amputee go through a period of depression. This may last for only a few weeks, but for most it will last much longer. However, the right person saying the right thing at the right time can help to shorten the depression period. A Masonic Brother can be that person through OPERATION "KAN". contact a committeeman.

This year your connnittee has continued to promote the statewide Scholarship Essay Contest and American Heritage - Public Schools Month as its principal programs. Essay Contest The topic of this year's Essay Contest was "Today's Greatest Challenge to the Public Schools". The entries gave this committee some good ideas for topics for future contests Although no new records were set, participation in the contest was good with entries from 106 girls and 81 boys at the state level. This is the second year that high school juniors have been eligible to enter the contest along with the seniors. This has been good for the Essay Contest; and we hope that it Is continued in the future. The amounts of the scholarship awards have remained the same for several years now: $1,000 for first place; $700 for second; $500 for third; $300 for fourth; and $100 for fifth place to each boy and girl winner. There were also three Honorable Mentions in each category that carried no scholarship award. The winners of the 1985 Essay Contest are: Girls Dawn Sullivan Inman Corner Stone Lodge No. 219

Brothers Royal B. Brown of Leavenworth, Conrad F. Johnson of Sabetha, and William F. >k;Intosh, PGM, of Clay Center served as judges for the contest again this year. Anerican Heritage - Public Schools Month On January 24, 1986, the Honorable John Carlin, Governor of Kansas, proclaimed the month of February, 1986, to be observed as American Heritage - Public Schools Month in Kansas. A letter was sent to all'Lodges enlisting their support and encouraging them to hold a special program during February in celebration of American Heritage - Public Schools Month. Recommendation Each year, during the final judging, we have found there are always more high-quality essays than there are awards to give.- We, therefore, believe that the number of scholar-

ship awards should be increased to include a sixth place, and the adjustment of the other awards as follows: First Place, $1,000; Second Place, $800; Third Place, $600, Fourth Place, $400; Fifth Place, $200; and Sixth Place, $100 each in the separate girls and boys contests. Conclusion We wish to thank our Grand Master, M:.W:. Arris M. Johnson, for giving us this opportunity to serve the Craft; and for his continuing support throughout the year. To R:.W:. Albert 0. Arnold, Jr., Grand Secretary, and his staff, our thanks for their assistance. Also, a special thanks to our Essay Contest judges for their valuable service. Finally, Brethren, the Masonic fraternity has long had an ongoing commitment to the American system of free public schools. In the Grand Lodge of Kansas this commitment has manifest itself in the work of this committee. The Scottish Rite is an avid supporter of the public schools. Young men in the Order of DeMolay are taught that "... the public schools are the foundation of our country's greatness". Many other Masonic bodies support the public schools in one way or another. Perhaps the best contribution that a local lodge can make to their community is an active public schools program. If your lodge does not have such a program, we hope that you will establish one in the near future. Freemasonry in general, and your lodge in particular, will be the beneficiaries.

REPORT OF CHURCH-LODGE RELATIONS COMMITTEE W:. William J. Brown, Chairman, gave the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: Masonry should never be considered a religion but each member should assume a responsibility to God and the Church of his choice. The Church-Lodge Committee again stresses the importance of each of our members assuming an active roll in the church of his choice. By demonstrating that Masonry in no way interferes with Church activities and responsibilities, our members can assist in precluding religious criticism of our Fraternity. This Committee is encouraging each Lodge to participate in St. Johns Day services. Planned services may not be possible. However, a visit with a local minister by the Master or Chaplain of the Lodge could generate an invitation for Lodge members to attend a church service as a body. In addition. Lodges are encouraged to support all special activities of the local churches. Masonic Services for a departed brother should be coordinated with the Minister and Funeral Director on the day prior to the service. Insuring that the Masonic Service will in no way conflict with the church service, reflects that Masonry respects religious services. Funeral booklets are available through Grand Lodge to be given as a token of respect to the departed brother's family. Local Lodges are encouraged to keep at least a one year supply of the booklets on hand.

Proceedings of the

Lodges are also encouraged to invite local ministers to all special activities of the Lodge and to set aside an evening in their honor. Demonstrating our respect for church leaders can also assist in precluding criticism of the Masonic Fraternity. In summary, Church-Lodge relations are the direct result of each Mason's participating in his church and each Lodge cooperating with the churches in the area. The members of this committee thank the Grand Master for this opportunity to serve the Grand Lodge. Respectfully submitted, William J. Brown, Chairman Thurman D. Miller Dwane Eller Robert W.

Mackey Lodge No. 48 at Effingham voted at a regular Stated Communication to surrender its Warrant of Constitution. M:.W:. Arris M. Johnson accepted this surrender on the 20th day of December, 1985. As provided in By-law 4-409, a Grand Secretary's Certificate was issued to those members making individual requests to the Grand Secretary. At the time of this writing it would appear that many members may be lost because of failure to individually apply for the Grand Secretary's Certificate. I feel it is the duty of this Committee to make special mention of the Lodges failing to comply with Section 9, ARTICLE IX, of our Constitution. As this report is being turned in to the Grand Secretary, the following Lodges have failed to make their Annual Report: Cherryvale Lodge No. 137 at Cherryvale Unity Lodge No. 273 at Clearwater Alpha Lodge No, 282 at Jetmore Apollo Lodge No. 297 at Ellis Turon Lodge No, 358 at Turon Climax Lodge No. 411 at Climax

REPORT OF THE KANSAS MASONIC HOME ADMINISTRATOR Brother Jerry B. Lindenbaum, Administrator of the Kansas Masonic Home, gave the following report which, on his motion, was accepted. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: I would like to begin this year's report by saying thank you to the many, many Masons and Eastern Stars who are new supporters of the Kansas Masonic Home. Three years ago, we had l;500 individual donors on our rolls. In 1984, this number increased to 1,600. In 1985, your numbers increased to 1,800. This reflects individual donors who have contributed to the Kansas Masonic Home over and above their per capita tax. This progression demonstrates more support each year. The Kansas Masonic Home residents and staff are eternally grateful not only to you new supporters, but to all our continuing supporters. This year the Kansas Masonic Home also embarked upon a coordinated estate planning program. With the assistance of Mr. John Griffin, the Home is helping people plan their estates, allowing more money to flow to their beneficiaries and charities of their choice. The long term prospect for this program is excellent and it will benefit the individual as well as the HcMne for decades to come.

We also have begvm a Chaplain Program this year. Dr. Robert K. Ordway, our Chaplain, has a very dynamic and moving ministry established, and it is being received well by our Masonic Home Family. The Kansas Masonic Home is progressing steadily and is entertwined with the emotion and synergy of the Masonic Orders in Kansas. There seems to be a revitalization and rekindling of the spirit of Masonry in many corners of the state and the Kansas Masonic Home is a part of it. I am so pleased, and certainly our-members at the Home are pleased, to see so many people becoming active in support of your most visible Masonic enterprise. I would like to suggest to the Council of Administration, that they choose a counterpart like raeta Johnson of the O.E.S. to help coordinate and inform all the Masonic Home Committees in the Lodges at the Grand Lodge level. There is much to do and a Masonic Home Coordinator would be beneficial. As your Kansas Masonic Home embarks upon a new year, the thought foremost in our minds are the programs of renewal about to unfold at our Home. This year, 1986, marks the beginning of the most important challenge Kansas Masons have faced since the Home began in 1896. All Kansas Masonry is called upon this year to support and direct their efforts to successfully completing our "Future Is Today" Campaign. This is a campaign of renewal and renovation seeking $8,000,000.00 to furnish construction of the new retirement center, boiler room, dining room, auditorium and many other services to replace the sixty-year old West Campus facilities. This effort will require the hard work and fellowship of thousands of volunteers and the spirit and energy of all the Craft to show the citizens of Kansas that Masonry is alive and well in Kansas. Please say "Yes" when you are called upon. You can do no greater service on this earth than when you help another human being. This is what our "Future Is Today" is all about. On behalf of the Residents of the Home, our reason for existence; the staff who cares so much for them; our M:.W:. Grand Master, Arris M. Johnson; and the Kansas Masonic Home Board of Directors, I thank all of Kansas Masonry for their thoughts, prayers and good wishes. Repairs and Replacements Our regular program of repairs and maintenance has been followed this year. Air Capital Ground Service continues to give the Home excellent yard support. Nova Chapter, Order of the Eastern Star, added more roses to the Mable Phillips Rose Garden this year. Some items were postponed due to budget priorities which will need to be completed this year.

In May of 1985, the Kansas Masonic Home began its own Security Department, replacing the contract service we have had for many years. Mr. Ron King, Director, was hired to develop, organize and guide the Home in programs designed to insure safety and security to all those who share our Campus. Masonic Home Committees The past two years have seen renewed interest in Lodges and Chapters about the Kansas Masonic Home and the utilization of their Masonic Home Committees. As your new officers take their positions this year, please remember to send the Kansas Masonic Home the names of your Masonic Home Committee members. In this way, we can easily keep your Lodge or Chapter informed about your Kansas Masonic Home. Occupational Therapy I am happy to report that this year our Occupational Therapy Department has increased Its consulting services from five to ten area nursing homes. Under the leadership of Mrs. Jan Morris, R.O.T., our Occupational Therapy Program is rendering excellent services to our residents while sharing Kansas Masonic Home expertise with' other area homes. On top of this, the program is producing revenue to offset one-third of the department's expense. We are all very proud of Mrs. Morris's efforts. Health Care Center We received our State licensure and Medicaid and Medicare certification in November. I want to take this time to thank our new Director of Nursing, Mrs. Karole Morris, R.N., and her assistant, Mrs. Betty Fry, R.N., and their staff for their continued efforts to be the best Health Care Center facility in Kansas. We have many fine, dedicated people in this unit and Kansas Masonry should be proud of their work. Mrs. Vera Wilson who retired as director of Nursing in February, 1985, was given a special presentation from the Kansas Masonic Home Board of Directors at their Annual Meeting in January, 1985. All of the Board, staff and residents thanked Mrs. Wilson for her nine years of dedicated service to our Fraternity. Worthy Grand Matron's Pro.ject The project of Sister Ruth Cearly, Worthy Grand Matron of the Order of the Eastern Star of Kansas, this year, was the funding of living room furniture for the West Lobby and TV rooms, and a sleeper sofa in the O.E.S. Visitor's Suite. Thank you. Sister Ruth, for your terrific support of our Beloved Home this year. Masonic Home Executive Conference During the last week of June, 1985, R:.W:. Clifford Knauss, Bonnie Wyckoff, Assistant Administrator and Bruce Humphrey, Director of Social Service and Admissions travelled to Alma, Michigan, to attend this year's Conference at the Michigan Masonic Home. The report from these folks indicated that the Conference was excellent again this year. During the Conference, I was elected President-Elect of the Association. During the 1986 Conference in Bettendorf, Iowa, I will become President of the Masonic Home Executive Association of North America for the ensuing year.

Changes in Medicare DRG (Diagnostic Related Grouping) The new DIAGNOSTIC RELATED GROUPING (DRG) Program established by Medicare for hospitals has had a great impact on our Health Care Center. Because this program forces hospitals to discharge patients earlier than they are used to, our residents are returning sicker and in more need of intensive care. This demands more intensive nursing and staffing to treat our patients. We are seeing a marked increase in IV Therapy, other medication related therapy, physical therapy and occupational therapy and nursing techniques. In response to this, the Board approved allocations in this year's budget to increase our registered nurse allotment to bring more nursing expertise to our Health Care Center. The topic of conversation now is the idea that the Federal Government will apply a similar program to Medicare eligible patients in nursing homes. This is already being tested. The concept would revolve around paying nursing homes a flat fee for each diagnosis grouping a patient falls in under Medicare with specific guidelines on how many days treatment are reimbursed. We are keeping abreast of these developments; although implementation of a program like this, if it is passed, would be a few years away. West Side Residential Our West Side Residents and staff enjoyed a very nice year, culminating with a wonderfiil Christmas Season. Thank you to all the Kansas Lodges and Chapters who sent gifts. It was truly a Merry Christmas for all. District //38 Once again I want to thank District #38 for the Brothers' fine efforts in having another successful Pancake Feed as well as the many other projects they perform for their'Masonic Home. In addition, this year, the District had a very successful auction and raised almost $10,000 for their Picnic Pavillion Project. The same is in order for the many Lodges and O.E.S. Chapters that give of their time and talents to the benefit of our Kansas Masonic Home To one and all, THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS.

Home Health Agency The Kansas Masonic Home - Home Health Agency has completed its third full fiscal year of operation. Three thousand five hundred thirty-two (3,532) visits were made this past year to residents of Sedgwick County under the direction of their physicians. The registered nurses and home health aides on staff also assist our residents in our residential area by providing assistance with medications and minor treatments. We fully support the philosophy of maintaining the resident in their own home or apartment as long as possibleMay 1st, we started a new program through our Home Health Agency called "Home Care Express". Two days a week, our driver picks up homebound individuals that have no family or other means of transportation and takes them to their physician's office for appointments or to the hospital for outpatient services. We charge a small fee of $5.00 (city) and $7.00 (county) to offset this expense. This program has been veil received and we average thirty trips per month. At the present time, we share our wheelchair van with the Health Care Center to provide this service. We would like to be able to raise the funds to have our own van to Increase this service to five days a week. July 1st also brought a new Director of Home Health to our Agency. We welcome Mrs. Zola Cheever, R.N., M.P.H., as member of our Home staff. Mrs. Cheever served as a Divitlon Manager with the Visiting Nurse Association of Greater St. Louis for ten years prior to her position with our Home Health Agency. Mrs. Cheever demonstrates the philosophy of the Home in caring for the elderly in their homes and we are looking forward to a rewarding association with Mrs. Cheever. As we enter our 90th year of loving care and concern for our Brothers and Sisters, it is with great pride that we have an agency that can reach out to those in their own homes that have medical needs as well as our residents on campus. As we look to a new year, our goal is to continue to educate our Masonic Brothers and Sisters In Sedgwick County that we are here to be of service to those in need of care in their homes. As all hospitals now have their own home health agency, our referral source must come from the individual or family, friend or physician. We have contracted with Health Care Plus to provide service for those individuals that choose Health Care Plus Plan 65 to be their primary insurance. We still participate with Medicare, Medicaid, other Insurance and home and Community Based Programs. Respectfully submitted by Bonnie Wyckoff, Administrator of the Kansas Masonic Home Home Health Agency. Development Office Report This past year has seen the awareness of the needs of our Worthy Distressed Brothers and Sisters reach new heights. The response has come from all over our great state and country from Masons and Eastern Star members alike. The generosity in giving of themselves and their financial resources has made 1985 the year of the rekindling spirit that is Masonry. Many Special Projects were iii^)lemented this past year. follows:

They are highlighted as

Adopt A Resident Program - Started by Ruth Cearly, Worthy Grand Matron, The Adopt A Resident Program has provided many Chapters the opportunity to get to know many of the Home resident Brothers and Sisters. The lives of the residents have certainly been changed by these newest members of their extended family. As part of the Program, Chapter members communicate with the resident by writing letters and sending cards. Personal visits have also helped to brighten the days of these special new friends. During the Holiday Season, the gifts sent by the Chapters were well received and deeply appreciated.

The Program Is coordinated, as are all of the Worthy Grand Matron's Special Projects, by Meta Johnson. Through her communication to the District Aides, this and all of the Projects have been very meaningful to all of the Home's residents as well as to increase the awareness of the need for support from all Eastern Star members. The Grand Officers are to be commended for all of their efforts and for demonstrating the leadership that is necessary to bring the needs of our distressed Brothers and Sisters into the proper focus. Wishbook Club - Determined to pull the members of the Mulvane Lodge ^201 together in a total Lodge project for the Home, W:.M:.Bill Crane put together the Wishbook Club to purchase the needed item, a gerry chair. The names of the members of the new, unique group of Mulvane Lodge members have been inscribed on a plaque which hangs in the Lodge. This project is being carried over to 1986 to allow even more members to join in on this united effort of support for Masonic charity. Grand Lodge District 38 - The eight Lodges that comprise the 38th District joined forces again to conduct another Pancake and Sausage Feed to raise funds for their All-Masonic Picnic Pavillion on the Home's Campus. The annual event, held in March, 1985, produced excellent results as many hard working Brothers gathered to serve hundreds of pancakes and sausages. Undaunted in their efforts to succeed in raising funds for the Pavillion, the Committee of Lodges took on an additional project, that being the annual auction. Donations of new and used items were secured and sold on a cold, blustery November 9th. When all the work was finished and the bidding was complete, over $10,000 was raised to add to the Pavillion Fund. The Lodges and hard workers of District 38 are to be commended for their efforts in this worthy project that, when completed, will benefit all of Kansas Masonry. Aerial Photo - In order that Lodge members could get a truer perspective on the size of the Home's facility, a new aerial photograph of the campus was sent to every Lodge. The old photo which was taken in 1950 did not show the true, scope of the physical facilities of the Home grounds. This, too, was an appropriate way in which, on behalf of our Brothers and Sisters that depend on Kansas Masonry, we could say "Thank You" to all of the Lodges for their continued support throughout the years. Albert Pike Golf Tournament - A new idea for raising funds for the support of Masonic Charity was unveiled in 1985 by Albert Pike Lodge #303. A benefit golf tournament was put together by many hard workers headed by W:.M:. H. Gene Payne and Committee Chairman Carroll Dando. Donations were sought and received so as to allow all of the proceeds of the event to be sent directly to the Home. These funds were directed to the repair of two sections of the roof that severely leaked during any rainstorm. The rooms are dry now thanks in a large part to the members of Albert Pike Lodge that participated and worked on this First Annual Event. The Home's Environmental Services Staff - The entire staff at the Home works day in and day out to provide the highest quality of care for our Brothers and Sisters as well as to maintain that home-like atmostphere. Those members of the Environmental Services Staff are to be commended for the project they completed in 1985, They were looking for something that they could do for the residents. The idea was presented that they should work to raise the funds to purchase an aquarium as was listed in the 1985 Wish Book. They put together a food sale and invited residents, staff and guests to help them. When the project was finished, enough funds were raised to purchase two aquariums, one for the West Residential Area and one for the Health Care Center. The members of the Environmental Services staff are to be commended for their dedication. 1985 also brought renewed support from many appendant body organizations desiring to play a role in providing the needed funds for maintaining our Masonic Charity. Each group deserves many thanks for their contributions and support.

Not only have they made contributions in dollars, but In volunteering their time and talents to provide service to the Home and residents. Many of these groups have been mentioned previously. The others deserving extra special mention are as follows: Keystone High Twelve #376 Midian Young Shriners Unit (Yoshi) Midian Sumner County Shrine Club Midian Past Masters Unit Midian Provost Guard Midian Million Dollar Band Earlier in this report, the leadership shown by the O.E.S. Grand Chapter Officers was briefly discussed. It is because of that display of leadership that the awareness of the needs of the residents and the Home is so high among Chapters all over the State. Members look to the leaders of their Fraternity for direction in this moment in its history. Without leadership, fraternities fail, companies fail, and the needs of our Distressed Brothers and Sisters go unmet. It is with deep gratitude that the Worthy Grand Matron, Ruth Cearly, and the Worthy Grand Patron, Buford Strader, should be commended for their wisdon and caring in communicating the Masonic Home story. To each of you, we say, thank you and God bless you. New Programs During 1985 Wish Book - What does it cost to operate the Masonic Home? food? What kind of things does the Home need?

How much is spent for

These questions are frequently asked as the staff travels the state telling the story of the Home. In order to better inform the membership as to the day to day costs as well as to bring forth examples of needed items, the first ever "Wish Book" was published and mailed to each Mason. From utility expenses to medical costs, members have been responding to provide the funds necessary to insure that the residents needs are met. While the response has been good, the daily needs of the Home and our Brothers and Sisters continue to exist. Hotline Number - At the last Annual Communication in March, 1985, the Grand Master's "v,.Fact-Flndlng Committee made several recommendations regarding the Masonic Home, Acting on one of these recommendations, a toll-free "Hotline" number was implemented to provide means for members to call in with questions. At the present time, the "Hotline" is available only to those living within the borders of Kansas, Nevertheless, the number Is available from 8 A,M, to 5 P.M., Monday through Friday, So if you have a question, or just to ask for information, just call 1-800-792-HOME, Estate Planning Service - Almost from the very, beginning of the Home, the primary financial support that has been received has come through bequests from members' wills. In an effort to Increase these gifts for the future, a program for Estate Planning was begun in May, 1985, to assist members and help find future gifts to the Home. The biggest beneficiary in most estates is the tax man, which deprives families of dollars they could receive if a proper estate plan is used. There is no cost to a member to use this service. Appointments are arranged for a confidential review of the current plan and then recommendations are made by the Home's Estate Planning Expert. Several Brothers and Sisters have benefited through using this service. One such Brother is Masonic Home resident, J. Alfred Cased. Brother Casad, a private-pay resident, has been able to make a significant difference in his estate plan which will allow him to benefit his family to a much greater extent than he ever dreamed possible. Not only has his family benefited, but his favorite charities will receive significant financial support for many years as a result of Brother Al's planning his estate. Anyone can have their current plan reviewed to insure that they are doing all that can be done for their family. To arrange a confidential appointment all that needs to be done is to contact the Development Office.

New Building Campaign The futture are we ready for it? Have we done everything to insure that the Home will be around, for us or our loved ones in the years to come? The first step to the future is underway with the Kansas Masonic Home Retirement Center Capital Campaign. At this writing, volvmteers are already, working to inclement campaigns within the Lodges in Grand Lodge Areas 5 and 6. The other ten areas are gathering their forces and are preparing to get underway. When all is finished, the $8,000,000 goal will have been reached and a new residential center will be built on the Home's South Campus. In addition, the electrical and plumbing systems will be updated along with the heating and cooling systems- Remodeling will also tcike place in the Dining Room, Auditorium and the old kitchen area. A new Plant Services Building will be constructed to house the Purchasing and Maintenance Department. The Campaign itself has been organized based on the way the Lodges in Kansas are grouped. That being, it is divided into twelve Areas, 64 Districts and 361 Lodges. A Volunteer Chairman is being recruited in each Area, District and Lodge to implement this vital program on a state-wide basis. Campaign Committees within each Lodge will make personal contacts with every member of their Lodge either in person or by letter. Through this joint effort. Lodges will be working together as a team and as Masons for this, our most important Masonic Charity. Several Brothers have already made their pledge to the Campaign. Each member will be asked to pledge a gift payable over a five-year period. At the present time, an average cirmual gift of $116.60 per year (for a total of $583.00 over the five years) has been received. Highlighting the giving is a $10,000 grant from the Dane G. Hansen Foundation of Logan, Kansas, cuid a $50,000 challenge grant from the First National Bank in Wichita. Volunteers are also working with other individuals and groups to identify major gifts in this rcuige arid larger. When the next Annual Communication comes next year, the campaign will be completed and ^he first step to the future will have been taken. Pilgrimage This past November brought the 4th Annual Pilgrimage of Thanksgiving and many Brothers and Sisters to the Home's Campus. There were eight Chapters and five Lodges represented for the first time. A total of forty-nine Lodges and sixty Eastern Star Chapters were in attendance during the Open House which was held on November 2nd and 9th. . Highlighting the annual event was the Residents' Bazaar on the second of November and the District 38 Auction on the ninth of November- The nearly 300 visitors were given tours of the Home's facilities as well as being able to visit with many Brothers and Sisters. Etonations During 1985 As we enter our 90th year of service to the Fraternity, it is appropriate that this report be closed with a "Thank You" to the 1,800 individuals and groups that gave a gift of $100 or more during the period of December 1, 1984, through November 30, 1985- Their average gift of $130 made a true difference in the lives of those Brothers and Sisters that depend on Kansas Masonry and call your Kansas Masonic Home, their home.

REPORT OF TOTAL YOUTH COMMITTEE As all members of this comaiittee were unable to be present, R: .W: . Albert 0. Arnold, Jr., Grand Secretary, read the following report into the minutes. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: During the past year the Grand Master has referred three items to this committee. The first was his concern for one of the youth groups that this committee is charged with. On checking into the situation, I find that the problems exist in all of the groups, and not just the one. One of the major problems confronting the youth groups in this Grand Jurisdiction - and many others - is a lack of adult involvment, either as adult leaders/sponsors or just as spectators. If you have not attended a DeMolay, Rainbow or Job's Daughter's meeting, then please make an attempt and show these fine young people that you care!!I The second item was a proposal of the Grand Lodge of the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, for an exchange of children of Masons of both jurisdictions (similar to the school exchange student programs). I was asked for a "—recommendation or whatever..." In reading the By-laws of this Grand Lodge, I feel that this is outside the realm of this committee, but can see nothing objectionable in the proposal as far as this committee is concerned. The conmittee on Foreign Relations, however, should have a look at the proposal before any adoption of it is recommended. The third item was a request of the Secretary of Overland Park Lodge No. 436 for a listing of the Youth Leaders recognized by last year's committee. I was unable to do this as the former chairman did not have a listing of them in the file that I received from him. I would recommend that there be some continuity in this committee, because I came in cold and there was no one to whom I turned that could let me know exactly what I was supposed to do or could do. I sincerely wish to thank Most Worshipful Arris Johnson for the opportunity to serve this Grand Jurisdiction. Respectfully submitted. C. David Williams, III, Chairman Lyle E. Spain Gary Weller

Any Master Mason is invited to come to this Reunion, and may bring any young man between the ages of 13 and 21 who might be interested in leeirning about or joining in the fellowship of DeMolay. W:. Masters advised that in areas of the state where population was limited a new concept of DeMolay Clubs was being initiated as it was sometimesdifficult to get six Master Masons and twenty-five members to form a DeMolay Chapter. There are currently 16 active chapters of DeMolay, and much effort is being put into increasing membership.

REPORT OF JURISPRUDENCE COMMITTEE M:.W:. Arthur C Hodgson, PGM, Chairman, presented the following report. Certain items in this report were acted upon individually; and then at the conclusion, the report was adopted as a whole. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. s A.M. of Kansas: This Conmiittee has had a very pleasant-.year but also one of exceptional, activity. We have enjoyed our year of service, and most of the work of the committee has been conducted by a correspondence and long distance telephone calls. There has been no meeting of the committee as a comittee until this communication of Grand Lodge. Function of the Committee The Fxmction of the Connnittee on Juri^rudence is set forth in By-law 2-119. Many times an individual brother or representatives of a lodge will ask for;an opinion or ruling. Notwithstanding, the committee wants to be helpful, we deem it in^roper to render opinions to individual brothers or lodges without first going through the Grand Master. Section 5 of Article VI of our Constitution sets forth the. powers and duties of the Grand Master. Item "I" reads: "To interpret the laws and require their"observance." Questions on interpretation of our laws should be sutanltted to the Grand Master and if he desires the assistance or interpretation by the Committee on Jurisprudence, it will be easy for him to secure it. Unless questions are handled in the way suggested, it wouldn't be long until the Grand Master would be taking second place to the Committee on Jurisprudence as far as interpretation of the law is concerned. We.believe this procedure not only to be the legal way to do it but, as a practical matter, is the way it should be done. \ Special Dispensations The Special Dispensations granted by our Grand Master have been reviewed and all are found to be within the powers and prerogatives of our Grand Master. We recommend that they be approved. (Motion seconded and^approved.) Special Communication of June 8, 1985 Our Grand Master called a Special Communication of Grand Lodge for Salina on Saturday, June 8, 1985, for the purpose of discussing and voting on the liability insurance package as previously voted on at the Annual Communication in March. Our Constitution Frticle VII, Section 1, provides that Special Communications may be called by the Grand Master; and By-law 2-202 provides that Special Communications may be called by the Grand Master or 25 or more Masters of lodges in this Grand Jurisdiction. This committee finds that the Special Communication was properly called; that due and timely notice was given of the meeting; that matters considered by said Special Corantunication were limited to the subject matter set out in the notice, and that all action taken at said Special Communication should be approved. We move the adoption of this Section of the Report.

(Seconded and approved.)

RtUings Our Grand Master's address lists six sepetrate rulings made by him. All of the rulings were made after consultation with the Committee on Jurisprudence, and we feel the same should be approved. The committee moves for adoption and approval of all six rulings. approved.)

(Seconded and

Credit Card Program A business in Boston, Massachusetts, presented a proposition to our Grand Master whereby the business would take applications for credit cards from members of the Grand Lodge, and the Grand Lodge or the Kansas Masonic Ecme would receive revenue from the issucince of the card and, also, a percentage of the interest the card holders woxild pay for the credit.


122

Proceedings of the

March

The question, as the Committee on Jurisprudence views it, is as follows: "May the Grand Lodge participate in a program involving credit cards to Masons in this Grand Jurisdiction with the Grand Lodge receiving a percentage of the interest paid for use of the credit card and a percentage of the interest on charges made by the holder of the credit card?" The committee held in effect that the proposal would be in violation of Article III, Section 2 of our Constitution. The Committee did not pass on the advisability of the program and only on the legalityA similar proposition was presented to the governing body of the Kansas Masonic Home. The proposition was submitted to the committee as to whether the Kansas Masonic Home could participate in the credit card promotion. The by-laws of the Kansas Masonic Home did not provide an answer to the question. We then secured a copy of the Charter of the Kansas Masonic Home and referred to Article VIII, which we think makes it clear that the Kansas Masonic Home could not participate, being bound by the Constitution and By-laws of the Grand Lodge. The Committee moves the adoption of this Section of the Report. approved.)

(Seconded and

Grand Master' s Recommendation Number 1 Oior Grcind Master has proposed that By-law 4-206 be amended as follows: "The examination of a candidate upon his proficiency shall be conducted either in open lodge or by a committee of not less than 3 members of the lodge appointed by the Master. The.vote of the lodge upon the proficiency of the candidate or upon the favorable vote of said committee shall be taken with the candidate excused and the lodge open on- either the same degree or the next higher degree." This appears to be a reasonable and in some cases a necessary provision and since it is entirely optional with the lodge, we move that the By-law be amended as indicated. (Motion was defeated for want of a two-thirds majority.) Grand Master * s Recommendation Number 2 Our Grand Master has recommended a special assessment of $3.00 per member to be made to support the Kansas Masonic Home. The cCTomittee interprets this to. mean a special assessment for a one-year period- If this is not the intent of the recommendation, I am confident we will be advised. Being aware of the needs of the Masonic Home, we move that this recommendation be approved- (Seconded and approved.) Grand Master's Recommendation Number 3 Our Grand Master has recommended adoption of a perpetual membership plan as outlined in a communication to lodges \inder date of January 15, 1985. There is no recommendation by our Grand Master for specific legislation to effectuate such a plan and the committee assimies that our Grand Master wants to hear from you as to whether you desire the Council of Administration to propose specific legislation to effectuate such a plan. Such a plan has many things to recommend it and yet there are forseeable problems. The committee would recommend for your consideration the report of the Committee on Correspondence found in the Advance Reports on page 61 and under the title of "Life Membership". In order to get this matter before you, the committee moves that the recommendation of our Grand Master be approved and that the necessary legislation be prepared to effectuate adoption of a plan. (Seconded and approved.) Conclusion Serving Masonry, serving Grand Lodge, and serving our Grand Master, is always a

distinct pleasure. We have found our Grand Master to be capable, to be courteous, and with a marked degree of intelligence- We have appreciated the opportunity of working with him, we commend him for his year of service and wish him continued success in the years ahead in the promotion of the ideals of Masonry.

GRAND MASTERS ADDRESS Brothers and Friends, This year my program will be built around a central theme, "Freemasonry - A Way-of Life". We should take Masonry and its teachings out of the Lodge Halls into our daily activities - living by our tenets of brotherly love, relief and truth, and practicing the virtues of temperance, fortitude, prudence and justice. Promote the image of Freemasonry in your communities by participating in appropriate local activities. Thus your uninitiated friends, neighbors and acquaintances will become aware that Freemasonry is an active and caring organization, worthy of their consideration for membership. This year I will again allow reduced proficiency as an option to the lodges. stress this is not a requirement, but an option.

I

The top priority for my program this year is the support and promotion of the Capital Campaign for the Kansas Masonic Home. This wonderful institution is a source of pride for all Kansas Masons. The Home.was started some ninety years ago; the present facilities, with the exception of the Health Care Center, were built back in the era of the 1920's and time takes its toll of buildings as well as people. The buildings need major renovations and repair. This will require capital expenditures over and above the daily operating expenses of the Home. Charity, or relief, is one of the tenets of our profession. "To relieve the distressed is a duty incumbent on all men, but particularly on Masons who are linked together by the indissoluble chain of sincere affection." Let every member search his heart and respond in a spirit of loving kindness with meaningful support of our Masonic Home. We cannot, in good conscience, do anything less. If we can ease a brother's sorrow And aid him in distress; If we can brighten his tomorrow With deeds of Friendliness; Then we have found God's meaning Of the word called Charity For when we give ourselves away. We've found life's mystery. Author Unknown

INVITATION W: . James A. Samples, Master of Salina Lodge No. 60, approached the Altar and extended a cordial invitation to the Grand Master to hold the One Hundred Thirty-First Annual Communication in 1987 in Salina. The Grand Master accepted with appreciation and thanks.

1986 ADDRESS OF THE GRAND MASTER To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas: My Brethren, this day and tomorrow will end the shortest year of my life. It seems only a week or two ago that I knelt at the altar and took my obligation as your Grand Master. I will be eternally grateful to the members of the Craft in Kansas for the confidence and trust placed in me when they elevated me to the office of Grand Master. Condition of the Craft Kansas Masonry is not, I feel, holding its own against the negative attitudes of apathy, indifference, impassivity and, in a few cases, hostility. Another year of membership losses attests to that. The loss in 1986 was about 1,700 Master Masons, bringing our total membership down to 59,154 at year's end - yes, under 60,000. Many lodges have had no petitioners or degree work for one or two years, or more. Consolidations of small rural lodges are continuing. There are, however, bright spots in the picture which are encouraging and take some of the sting out of the losses. With good leadership, interest and enthusiasm, some lodges are getting new petitioners and are regaining prominence in their communities, adding a Masonic flavor to local activities. These three ingredientsLeadership, Interest and Enthusiasm - are necessary for the success of any venture, my Brethren, but they are absolutely vital to any Masonic Lodge. Dedications Four (4) new Lodge Halls were dedicated in 1986 - Wellington, Garden City, Chetopa and Parker. The Special Communications of the Grand Lodge were very well attended, and good fellowship was the order of the day. The Cornerstone and Dedication Ceremonies were combined at Wellington. R:.W:. Clifford Knauss, Deputy Grand Master, presided inasmuch as I was out of state attending the Scottish Rite Workshop in New Orleans, Louisiana. I am appreciative of his very capable handling of this Special Communication. Reception I want to thank my a marvelous reception and Manhattan Chapter event. That day will

lodge, Lafayette Lodge No. 16, Manhattan, for planning and hosting in my honor on April 12, 1986. All the other lodges in District 29 No. 209, O.E.S., lent valuable assistance in a very successful always be a bright one for Jima and me. 75-Year Membership Award

I was accorded the privilege of awarding a 75-year Membership Emblem to Brother Fred J. Kuehne, a member of Golden Rule Lodge No. 90 of Topeka, at a Special Communication of the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas on April 5, 1986. Two 60-year Membership Certificates were also presented to Brother Arthur F. Allen and Brother Claude G. Lisher. Brother Kuehne then shared a number of his experiences with the assemblage. Appendant and Concordant Orders It was my pleasure to receive and to accept invitations to attend meetings of several of the appendant orders. On April 4th, I spoke to the M:.E:. Grand Chapter of Royal Arch Masons of Kansas meeting together with the M:.I:. Grand Council of Cryptic Masons of Kansas in Salina. As the guest of the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite, Southern Jurisdiction, I attended the South-Central workshop in New Orleans, Louisiana. It was an enjoyable and educational experience. On April 23, 1986, I addressed the Grand Chapter of Kansas, Order of the Eastern Star, during their annual session in Topeka. I met with and addressed the Kansas State Association of Hi-Twelve International in Wichita on May 3, 1986. I also addressed the Annual Conclave of the Grand Commandery of Knights Templar of Kansas in Wichita on May 16th.

As I was attending the Grand Lodge of Nebraska on June 13th, I was represented by R:.W:. Knauss, D.G.M., at the Annual Convention, International Order of Job's Daughters, in Kansas City, Kansas; and by M:.W:. Richard A. Porter, P.G.M., at the Annual Grand Assembly of the International Order of Rainbow For Girls in Wichita on the same date. I sincerely appreciate these worthy Brothers representing me. R:.W:. Knauss also represented me at the Annual Meeting of the Order of the Amaranth in Wichita on October 3, 1986. I attended and spoke to the State Conclave of the Kansas State Chapter of DeMolay in Hays on July 26th. My membership in Isis Shrine Temple, Ancient Arabic Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, gained in significance this year. I was presented a Grand Master's Fez by my Temple and was privileged to attend with my wife, as a guest of the five Shrine Temples of Kansas, the Annual Session of the Imperial Shrine of North America, June 29th through July 4th, in Los Angeles, California. Forty-six other Grand Masters of North America were also in attendance. This was a most enjoyable and informative session. I sincerely thank the Shrine Temples of Kansas for this privilege. Further, my wife and I were guests of the Kansas Shrine Bowl at the banquet, parade and football game in Lawrence on August 1st and 2nd. The Kansas Masonic All-State High School Band performed in superior fashion. Symbolic Masonry and Shrlnedom have discovered many areas of common concern in the realm of Freemasonry in our society. A new name, "Shrine-Mason", is heard more and more. Deaths It was not written that the Grim Reaper would pass over the Grand Lodge Officers this year. W:. Henry V. Beck, Grand Pursuivant, and a close personal friend, died on May 11, 1986. The Grand Lodge was called in Special Communication on May 13th to attend the church services and perform the Masonic Graveside Service for W:. Beck. To his widow, Jeanne, and his family are extended our prayers and thoughts for serenity and peace. Grand Lodge was opened in Special Communication on May 14th at Overland Park Christian Church, Overland Park, Kansas, to attend the church service and perform the Graveside Service for W:. Victor R. Petty, Past Grand Pursuivant. Also buried on May 14th was one of our beloved Past Grand Masters, M:.W:. Addison C. Irby, M.D. "Doc" Irby's services were conducted by the Scottish Rite in Fort Scott. We were later saddened by the passing of Mrs. Ella Hodgson, wife of M:.W:. Owen E. Hodgson, PGM, and Mrs. Nancy Williamson, wife of M:.W:. J. Fred Williamson, PGM. To the families of these departed friends go our heartfelt prayers. St. John's Day On June 1st the customary proclamation was issued announcing June 22, 1986, as the date for the observance of the annual Feast of St. John the Baptist. I authorized the opening of the M:.W:. Grand Lodge in Special Comnunication by a special deputy of the Grand Master for any lodge in Kansas that wished to have the Grand Lodge for a special St. John's Observance. Accordingly, there were Special Communications of the Grand Lodge on June 22nd in Overland Park, Concordia, Fairway, Manhattan and Topeka. Many individual constituent lodges held special observances of their own. Visits to Other Grand Lodges I was pleased to be invited to attend the Annual Comnunications of several Grand Lodges and was able to visit the Grand Lodges of Oklahoma, Nebraska, Missouri, Georgia and Colorado. My wife accompanied me, and we were treated royally wherever we were. It was most interesting to learn some new viewpoints and some different approaches to common problems. Rulings 1. A lodge requested permission to sell raffle tickets for a Centennial Rifle as a fund raising project for the lodge during the town's centennial celebration period. After some research and consultation, I ruled against the project as an improper risk for the lodge to become embroiled in firearm regulations or presenting a risk for future liability claims. 2. I rejected a request by a lodge to receive a petition for the mysteries at a Special Communication.

3. A Brother, initiated in a Kansas Lodge more than a year previously, wrote the Master of the Lodge requesting completion of the degrees. He was referred to a Missouri Lodge close to his home by the secretary. He was taken in by the Missouri Lodge and given the FC and MM degrees with no communications of any kind between the two Grand Lodges involved. Since the mistakes were made by the secretaries of the constituent lodges concerned, one in Kansas and one in Missouri, and was no fault of the newly raised brother, I agreed with the Grand Master of Missouri, and we each issued a "healing" order declaring the brother to be a Master Mason in good standing and a member of the Kansas Lodge which initiated him. The secretaries were reprimanded for their careless handling of the procedures. 4. A member of a Kansas Lodge, living in California, passed away. His family requested a Masonic Burial Service and a nearby California Lodge was standing by, awaiting confirmation of his membership and good standing in Kansas. But it was found that he had been suspended, NPD, the previous year. He had been an invalid the last couple of years of his life, unable to take care of his business. I felt that someone of his family, or perhaps a conservator, had neglected to pay his dues and notify his Lodge In Kansas. I ordered the Grand Secretary to restore the Brother to good standing, and notify the California Lodge to proceed with the Masonic Funeral Service. Recommendations (1) By-Law 2-301. GRAND LODGE PER CAPITA DUES AND SPECIAL ASSESSMENT. Every Lodge working under a warrant of Constitution shall pay annually to the Grand Lodge a tax of S4x-B8l-tai"s ELEVEN DOLLARS per capita on its roll of membership for the preceding year. Suchper capita tax shall be divided between the General Fund of the Grand Lodge and the Kansas Masonic Home, such division to be made each year by the Council of Administration with the approval of the Board of Directors of the Kansas Masonic Home in such proportion as will best meet the needs of both, and with the further provision that the portion allocated to the Kansas Masonic Home shall never be less than $1.50 per capita; PROVIDED, that any increase in the per capita tax shall become effective on the Lodge roll of membership determined on December 31 of the following year. Division: $3.00 to Home; $2.00 to Grand Lodge. (2) The continuation of the three dollar per member special assessment for the year 1987 for payment on or before January 10, 1988. (3) By-Law 4-302. RAISiNS-FEESr INITIATORY FEES. Every Lodge shall collect a fa+sinยง-fee an initiatory fee of FIVE DOLLARS from each candidate raised initiated, in addition to the regular fees for the degrees. Such raising initiatory fee shall be remitted to the Grand Secretary at the same time the per capita tax Is transmitted, and shall be transmitted by the Grand Secretary to the Secretary of the Kansas Masonic Home Board, and become part of the Endowment Fund of such Home (effective 1 January 1988). CROSS REFERENCE: By-Laws, Sec. 2-301. The Kansas Mason Our Masonic newspaper Is one communication that goes to every member, and this is an important link to all Brothers. They may not all read it, but when they take it out of the mailbox, they see the name "KANSAS MASON" and It stirs the memory. To offset part of the rising costs of publication and mailing the paper, I would recommend to the incoming administration that, our By-Laws permitting, selected.advertising be sold. Area Deputy Grand Masters and District Deputy Grand Masters I certainly do appreciate the supervision, leadership and execution of Grand Lodge plans by the Area Deputy Grand Masters and the District Deputy Grand Masters. The Grand Master couldn't get along without the services of these loyal and dedicated Brothers. There are a few instances of misunderstanding or poor communication but, overall, these officers are Indispensable. I do recommend that consideration begiven to a two-year term for them in order to have more continuity. Committees The Grand Lodge Committees are essential to the planning and organization of future programs. They are the "think tanks" of the Grand Lodge and, indeed, of any constituent lodge. They are often overworked and underpaid. I do thank them for the hours of time and talent contributed to our Fraternity.

Past Grand Masters Numerous times I have asked a Past Grand Master for his counsel or opinion and have never been refused. It's a wonderful feeling of security to realize that all that experience and talent is behind you, on call. Thank you. Most Worshipful Sirs. Grand Officers The Grand Officers, elective and appointive, are an outstanding group of dedicated Masonic leaders. They have performed their duties with great skill, and have been most supportive of the Grand Master in his efforts this year. I am proud to have been associated with these fine Brothers and their ladies. Thank you, my Brethren, for accepting election or appointment, as the case nay be; and thank your ladies for letting you accept. Kansas Masonic Foundation The Foundation is now over 20 years old, and has firmly established itself as our younger Masonic charity which addresses itself to cancer research and the service of youth. Under the leadership of Bro. Donald Horttor, President, and Bro. Jim Claussen, Executive Secretary, the Foundation has a fine future in prospect. Kansas Masonic Home The beautiful campus of the Home in Wichita is always a pleasure to see, and the physical plant is a facility of which we all may justly be proud. Our Home has a 90-year record of service to our needy Brothers and Sisters. It is the principal charity project of Kansas Masonry. We declare, before our admission into the Lodge, that we seek membership prompted "by a sincere wish of being serviceable to our fellow creatures". All through the degrees we espouse the tenets of "Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth" and obligate ourselves to "help, aid and assist" our less fortunate brothers. Our Home has, however, been suffering from the effects of declining membership in Kansas Masonry, increasing costs of essential goods and services, and diminishing support from the Craft. The Board of Directors of the Home has found it necessary to re-examine and restate the mission of the Home, to make it reflect the realities of the day. Up to this time, if a Mason recomended by his Lodge, applied for residence at the Home and was found otherwise eligible, he was admitted whether he could pay his way or not. He was not refused. Under future rules, the Board will have to limit or reject applicants for charitable waiver in accordance with the amount of funds contributed to the Home for support. For the first time in history, we may have to close the door on a needy Brother, his wife, or widow. The Home cannot operate in the red indefinitely! My Brethren, this is an intolerable situation for we who love the Fraternity to face each day. Let's do something about it and all pitch in to help. Many willing, generous brothers built the Home; and many willing, generous brothers can keep it functioning properly as the outstanding tribute to Masonic Charity - telling the world what Masonry does. Grand Secretary and Staff I owe a great big hand of thanks and appreciation to our Grand Secretary, Albert 0. Arnold, Jr., and his most capable staff for their patience and willingness to help at any time. My whole-hearted thanks. Brother Al. Family As I've said many times this year, our Masonic careers would be short if we didn't have the support of our families, and I am no exception. My wife, Jima, has been a constant companion in almost all my travels. She's been my chauffeur, severest critic, greatest booster, timekeeper and best friend over this five-year journey. Without her love, encouragement and support, I don't know If I could have done it. Our son, Eric, has been a great help to us - keeping an eye on our home when we were gone, and lending another pair of hands and/or feet whenever needed. And so, again, my Brethren, I say thank you for the privilege of serving as your Grand Master. I will be forever grateful. Respectfully submitted. Durward C. Daniel son Grand Master

Knapp, Chairman, Operation KAN The Grand Master announced this Special Communication, had been called for the purpose of observing the Festival of St. John the Baptist. Following the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of our Country, the Grand Master presented M:.W:. Haggard, Senior Pastor of the Church who advised as to the procedures to be followed. It was noted that more than 35 Brethren had signed the Register, including the newest Entered Apprentice of Ancient Form Lodge #34 who had been initiated on June 20th. The Grand Master especially thanked the Brethren of Ancient Form Lodge #34 for providing the furnishings and setting up the room for the opening of Grand Lodge. All then retired to Fellowship Hall for a continental breakfast. Due to a violent rain storm which occured about this time, the service which had been scheduled to be held out-of-doors on the patio, was moved into the Sanctuary. For the opening of the Service of Worship, the Masons and their families processed into the Sanctuary under the direction of the Grand Marshal and his assistant, W:. Allen M. Peyton, Lodge #34, and an officer of the Church. The Service of Worship included the following: Prelude and Processional of the Fraternity Invocation and Lord's Prayer - The Gloria Patri Scripture Readings from the Lectern Welcome by the Area Deputy Grand Master Response by the Grand Master (his remarks are inserted below) Offertory and Doxology Conmunion of the Lord's Supper Sermon: "BECAUSE" - by Rev.

Franklin B. McGee Al McCune Gene Amos Don Sink, Glen Tolman, Calvin McBride, Jim Holloway, Jim Pipkin, Lucius Bush, Ed Dillon, Ralph Hays and Joe Urice Greeters: Ed Dillon, Lucius Bush and Ralph Hays The text of the Grand Master's Response follows: We are glad to celebrate this Feast of St. John the Baptist who was a rugged individualist. We are here to renew our faith, our loyalty and our determination to live by our Masonic teachings. We must envision how the Fraternity looks from the outside. Nonmembers, obviously, cannot be expected to know and understand the deeper truths and common bonds that bind Freemasons. We cannot escape the fact that men judge Freemasonry by what they see walking down the street wearing Masonic emblems. And, if what they see does not command respect, then we need not expect them to seek our fellowship. We must impress upon each and every member of the Craft the duty to display, at all times and in all ways, a conduct so exemplary and a loyalty to the fraternity so evident that all reluctant good men would be enticed to join the order. Thus every Mason, by the example of his life, can become a silent but efficient Masonic Ambassador to the world. More than 120 persons were seated in-the section reserved for the Masonic Fraternity and their families. Masons were registered from about 20 Lodges in Kansas, and from Arkansas, Iowa, Missouri, Tennessee and Texas. Following the Benediction, the Masons retired to the Multi-Purpose Room and Grand Lodge was closed in Ample Form on the First Degree of Masonry at about 8:50 A.M. Durward C.

Dunbar, Horace J. Good REMARKS PREPARED FOR THE DEDICATION OF THE GARDEN CITY TEMPLE September 13, 1986 By- Dr. Horace J. Good One could say that the temple you are enjoying at this moment was built with sweat and tears, for indeed it is the end result of many hours of hard work by numerous members of the Craft and associated organizations. I, personally, doff my hat to these good people, for I am one of those who came late on the scene, with my good fortune being that of seeing the construction commence. The hard work had already been completed. We must carry ourselves back to the time when the original Temple Corporation Board of Directors was formed in 1965 with the avowed purpose being that of locating a site and building a temple. We must today regard them as pioneers in Masonry. They commenced with an organization being formed, a faith in their purpose, and little more than that except a trust in the goodness of the Lord. During the next several years options were taken on different sites, while property in downtown Garden City was purchased, occupied, remodeled and repaired. The funds of the corporation did not suffer during this time, but instead swelled a little along with inflation. The five bodies comprising the Temple Corporation, the Blue Lodge, the Eastern Star, the Royal Arch, the Commandery and the Beauceant, all remained faithful to the purpose of the Temple Corporation during the time of planning for the new building to house the bodies. At the downtown location, the Knox Building was purchased in 1971 adjacent to the downtown Temple with funds borrowed from each member organization. Later, as rent came in, each group was paid back the money borrowed. The building site west of the Gibson Store was sold in 1973. As time went by, the treasury increased, but at a slow rate. Finally, the present building began to come into shape. The property for the Temple we are dedicating today was purchased early in 1984 in two tracts, with donations accepted at the time paying for much of that cost. In May of 1984, the Temple Corporation Board of Directors became quite serious about constructing the Temple and proceeded to appoint a Building Committee, consisting of a representative from each member body. Those appointed were Wilbur Morris, Jean Heer, Bill Hilton, Earl Parrish and Lois Blackford. The good work they commenced is here before you for your admiration. The Building Committee met faithfully to work on the planning, and their request for a larger committee was granted. Architect Joe Vanderweide was selected to complete plans for the Temple. with many people representing the corporate bodies.

For instance, the minutes of the January 13, 1985, Board of Directors meeting records the following as being in attendance: Joe Dunbar, Elaine Nelson, Larry Litton, Don Roper, Evelyn Van Vleet and Raymond Heer of the Board of Directors. Present as members of the Building Committee were Lois Blackford, Aleta Widows, Wilbur Morris, Earl Parrish and Roy Kurz. Also present were Judy Litton, Bob Kurz and Ross Blackford. This is some evidence that many people were intensely interested in the project. At this meeting on the 13th of January in 1985, it was decided to bring preliminary plans to the annual meeting of the corporation for a vote. There was some good discussion at that annual meeting, but the minutes reflect an overwhelming affirmative vote for the project. Funding was the next matter of interest, and at the February, 1985, meeting of the Temple Corporation each member body was asked to appoint two members to a finance committee. As they met during the next several months, they planned a compaign and they raised a good sum of money toward the building and the endowment fund for the operation of the Temple. The next big event in this series was the groundbreaking for the temple on June 5, 1985, in connection with the 100th Anniversary of the Garden City Lodge, and with the Grand Master present. All other member bodies were represented at the ground breaking, and the culmination of twenty years of effort was about to be realized. The next several weeks were consumed with cutting costs of the project and deciding which parts of the construction could be on alternates. Concern was present about approval of the project by the Grand Lodge; for, although the building could be built, there was no endowment fund to keep the Temple going. Nonetheless, bids were taken which seemed to be reasonable, and Grand Lodge approval was received to proceed. Cornerstone laying was held on March 15, 1986. Finally, not so many months ago, the building was occupied, and then work commenced on the finishing touches. Members of the Temple Corporation Board must be given credit for installations such as baseboard, chair guard material and the pictures of former officers. Would the members of the Temple Board of Directors please stand. Those present from the building committee - will they please stand? And so we come to today's occasion. Much work has gone into the Temple, and we are proud of it and of those who worked so many hours toward its realization. There is one further person who should be recognized. He is the Secretary of the Temple Corporation who was the first president and, ever since, for 21 years has worked tirelessly and with little appreciation for his efforts. His wife has stood by him to assist with the work during these two decades of planning, funding and constructing the Temple. Will Raymond and Jean Heer please stand for wel1-deserved appreciation. I thanl- you for permitting me to bring you some of the history of the Temple.

Proceedings of the

REPORT OF THE GRAND TREASURER M:.W:. William F. Mcintosh, PGM, Grand Treasurer, presented the Treasurer's Report which, on his motion, was accepted and made a part of the minutes. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. 8 A.M. of Kansas: Most Worshipful Grand Master and Brethren, I'm pleased to bring to this Grand Lodge the report of the Grand Treasurer for the past term. The report is printed in the Advance Proceedings. I'm not going to belabor the financial data that is displayed for you. Rather, I feel it more expedient to only pick out what I deem to be some of the financial highlights. You will notice in Exhibit E about $7,000 for the past year.

that our total footings (assets) show an increase of

The Building and Equipment account increased $46,000. This arises from the repair of the foundation of the Grand Lodge building and a slight carry-over from the roof repair of the preceding year. Also, in Exhibit F, I want to call to your attention that the Panhandle Eastern Pipeline bonds carried at $5,075.16 are being called at $5,000; the National Biscuit Company bonds carried at a book value of $7,658.04 are being called at $10,000. The U. S. Treasury note for $20,025.27 matures on March 31, 1987 for $20,000. It is projected that these securities with a value of $35,000 will be placed in a U. S. Government mutual bond fund that is yielding approximately 9.4% at the present time. This is a very liquid fund and bears a favorable interest rate, considering the current money clime. Then, I think it is worthy of note that the 500 shares of RJR Nabisco stock listed in Exhibit F and carried on our books at $8,008.14, have a market value at the present time in excess of $28,000. Regarding the 1986 budget, the Proceedings do not reveal the variance of the various budgeted items to the actual income or expense items. The total budget was underspent by nearly $23,000; but, at the same time, the income was some $15,000 less than was anticipated. This resulted in a profit of budgeted items of $7,600 for the year. It would appear that, at the present time, our financial condition is within acceptable bounds. The report of the Auditor is published below: In accordance with standard accounting and audit procedures, I have audited the Grand Lodge records for the period February 1, 1986 through January 31, 1987. The records were maintained on the cash method of accounting. The results are reflected in the following exhibits: Exhibit Exhibit Exhibit Exhibit Exhibit Exhibit Exhibit

Proceedings of the

March

REPORT OF THE GRAND SECRETARY R:.W:. Albert 0. Arnold, Jr., Grand Secretary, gave the following report which, on his motion, was received and referred to the Reports of Grand Officers Cormittee: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: As required in our Constitution and By-laws; to wit, ARTICLE VI, Section 9, and Bylaws 2-110 and 2-111, 1 herewith submit report for the now past year and also the Estimation of Income and Expenditures for the ensuing year. Annual Reports Each year I come before you with the fond hope that our report of Annual Reports will be timely and favorable. Unfortunately, that does not seem to be our lot. Neither one is true. Our Grand Master, following the pattern of several of his predecessors, was more than generous, we believe, in allowing the twenty-one day grace period; but even this did not suffice. I am, unfortunately, at this time preparing to present to you at the next Annual Communication a different system and one which would require lodge secretaries to pay a fine if the report is not postmarked as required in our laws. Correction of Addresses Each year I report to you about our mailing experience owing to the fact it is the largest single on-going operation we have in your Grand Lodge dealing with the membership. It is surprising the number of address changes we experience each year and, as previously reported to you, it is in the twenty-five to twenty-seven per cent bracket. I know this comes as a repetitive thing, but please be very, very careful in notifying us when you do move or you do learn of a member who has moved. The Post Office Department still requires three lines to an address. A number of brethren seem to feel only their name and town are necessary. Unfortunately, through the years, the Post Office employees are changing and it is becoming more difficult an item to administer. Some first class mail will still reach you if so addressed. But we are paying a lot of money for returned addresses on such items as the Kansas Mason, second and third class mail when a street name and number or a post office box number is not given. A route number will not do in many cases. So, please, do give us your post office box and/or street mailing address. Dual/Plural Memberships Again I must bring this to your attention. This past year we have had a very traumatic experience involving two members who were dual members of lodges in Tennessee. Because our laws did not apparently agree with those in Tennessee, we were notified by the Grand Secretary that the brethren would have to withdraw their memberships or be suspended. If suspended from their jurisdiction, it naturally follows that they would be suspended from ours. So we were left with one avenue to follow, and that was to immediately request these brethren to withdraw their memberships from Kansas Masonry. This could happen many times over in other jurisdictions. As previously said to you, the process of dual affiliation is not a complicated one, but we do ask that you call or write directly to this office before proceeding in such matters. This information can often lead to some very embarrassing situations and could possibly lead to the loss of membership. We have duplicated the laws of this jurisdiction with reference to dual and plural membership and have copies available for you at this Annual Communication. Please take one home with you and see that it is thoroughly and completely understood before proceeding if you desire this type of membership and, again, then contact your Grand Secretary before initiating action.

Grand Lodge Building Again this year we found ourselves in a difficult situation with reference to some protective measures taken to preserve this beautiful edifice of Kansas Masonry. A small leak in the foundation seemed to increase in size and flow until it was coursing across the floor of one of the basement rooms. We found, as reported in the KANSAS MASON, that the west wall was indeed plumb, square and level, but the sealing agent (we assumed tar) had given away through the years. Recoating was therefore necessary. Fortunately, the funds were available and had been set aside to continue the replacement of windows throughout the building, so it was not necessary to include existing investments or appeal to you for further assistance. Library and Museum We are again pleased to report to you that donations have been made to your Grand Lodge Library by those listed hereafter. One - Transactions of the Missouri Lodge of Research (Vol. No. 5, 1947) compiled by Ray V. Denslow, Dr. Willis J. Bray and Ovid Bell Donor: Mrs. J. David (Betty) Rasure of Topeka in memory of her Grandfather, Courtland W. Shepard One - Centennial Anniversary of Washington Lodge AF & AM, Roxbury, Mass. 1796-1896 Roxbury Publisher, by the Lodge 1896 Donor: Mrs. J. David (Betty) Rasure of Topeka in memory of her Grandfather, Courtland W. Shepard One - History of American Union Lodge No. 1, AF & AM of Ohio Author, Charles S. Plumb, published 1934 Donor: Mrs. J. David (Betty) Rasure of Topeka in memory of her Grandfather, Courtland W. Shepard One - Proceedings of the M:.E:. Grand Chapter of Royal Arch Masons of Kansas, 1866 to 1874, inclusive. Published in K.C., KS., 1890 Donor: R:.W:. K. Maynard Curts One - Grand Chapter of The Order of The Eastern Star in The State of Kansas, Eastern Star Convention (first session through 1889) Donor: R:.W:. K. Maynard Curts One - Encyclopedia of Freemasonry, Arthur Edward Waite Donor: W:. Lowell D. Jenkins, PM Lodge No. 385 One - The Meaning of Freemasonry, W. L. Wilmshurst Donor: W:. Lowell D. Jenkins, PM Lodge No. 385 These items are greatly appreciated and we encourage you to carefully examine any and all items that might be on the "disposal list" of your lodge before proceeding. You never know, there might be something of great value or of use elsewhere in your Grand Lodge, or by some other lodge in the jurisdiction. Caution This year the secretary of our Mayetta Lodge No. 393, W:. Carl F. Nelson, called and reported that his home had been completely destroyed by fire, and with it much of the lodge records. We were able to reproduce the information for him and, of course, were pleased to do so. But we do urge you to be cautious with your lodge records and information. The lodge minutes, as example, are extremely important and, in many cases, are used for the tracing of membership and prior to data filing are our only source of information. Emporia Lodge No. 12 reported a break-in at the time they were beginning their annual dues collections. Apparently the thief or thieves knew of this and did make off with some two hundred dollars in cash. But perhaps even more inportant than the funds, was the damage and confusion caused by the break-in. We are pleased that in both cases insurance covered most of the losses; but, again, the resultant confusion and vandalism caused a considerable amount of effort and time to correct. Caution, my brothers, do take good care of your property and see that it is properly maintained and insured.

Proceedings of the

Income and Expenses As this report was being considered, it was evident the slowdown in farming and agribusiness within our Grand Jurisdiction certainly would have its effect on the membership. Fourteen bank failures during the last calendar year, coupled with thirty-four per cent increase in bankruptcies, added to the problem. Further, a well-known television enterprise had taken upon itself to produce an "expose" of Freemasonry. As you might expect, it was presented in a very detrimental and derogatory way. None of these things seemed to affect our loss ratio a great deal, although I am sorry to report we do still have that same loss ratio as will be indicated in the figures given on the following page. Naturally, the great concern to us is that once again we have sustained a loss of almost 1,700 members and a loss, in round-off figures, of fifteen thousand dollars. We have been very fortunate in the last few years of being able to withstand these losses by downgrading the budget, owing to the fact that our interest rates have been high, and our insulation efforts for heating and cooling our Grand Lodge building have proved fruitful. However, it is questionable just how far and how long this can continue. Like all things, our Post Office Department once again has wisely decided not to raise first class mail costs. However, that did not stop them from doing so in the second and third class. While out-of-pocket change at 1.1 cent doesn't sound like very much, if you try to calculate it at the sixteen per cent increase, you can see still another of our problems. Our real estate and personal property tax has also been another area over which we have no control. The last per capita tax increase was voted in 1981. If a per capita tax increase were to be voted at this annual session, it would still be two years hence before it could go into effect, or 1989. That would be a total of eight years. In comparison with other jurisdictions and with the appendant orders to which many of us belong, you will find that our per capita tax has been the lov;est of any of them. We are very proud of that record, and only wish that we could continue to hold the line. However, the time is not too far off when we are going to have to make some decisions about cost cutting or increasing the per capita tax. Appreciation In appreciation, once again, the time has come when I feel called upon to pay a tremendous thank you to the committee chairmen and committeemen who have faithfully served our Grand Lodge throughout the past year. As ever, my hard-working staff could never receive enough praise and thanks for their efforts far and beyond the call of duty. One of my great concerns around the Grand Lodge is the fact we have such a cooperative spirit and industrious attitude that it makes our work look almost like child's play. Such is not really the truth, as it does take effort, know-how, talent and ingenuity. My sincerest appreciation to Rachael Gilbert, Arlene Mahrle, Jack Werner, Charles Baldry and "Mr. Workman" himself, R:.W:. Halbert G. Horton; and, as ever, my right-hand and not only "Gal Friday" but every day, Jean Rader. To the Council of Administration and our Grand Master, my appreciation and thanks for your consideration, cooperation, kindness and, as ever, your continuing efforts in behalf of our beloved Fraternity. The Grand Master has had a most difficult time this year and we have shared in sorrow on more than one occasion. He has carried on, and we can indeed be proud of that fact. We all wish him well in all future endeavors. Fraternally submitted. Albert 0. Arnold, Jr. Grand Secretary

REPORT OF COUNCIL OF ADMINISTRATION R:.W:. Albert 0. Arnold, Jr., Secretary to the Council, presented the following report which, on his motion, was accepted for printing in the Annual Proceedings. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas. The first meeting of the Council of Administration was called at the close of the 130th Annual Communication of the Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas on March 22, 1986, in Salina, Kansas. M:.W:. Arris M. Johnson, Junior Past Grand Master, nominated M:.W:. Durward C. Danielson as President and, upon a regular second, he was elected. R:.W:. Clifford D. Knauss was elected Vice-President, R:.W:. Claude W. Norris was elected Secretary. All of which was unanimously approved. Upon motion, it was unanimously approved to retain Kaw Valley Bank and Trust as the official bank of Grand Lodge. It was moved, seconded and unanimously approved, to place the funds of Mackey Lodge No. 48 who had surrendered their Charter into the General Fund. It was unanimously moved, seconded and passed, that two-thirds of the District Deputy Schools of Instruction meetings be paid for by the Grand Lodge from the Masonic Education fund. The Grand Secretary was instructed to continue as Secretary to the Council inasmuch as, with the information at hand, he could assist in codifying the information and minutes. Official meetings of the Council of Administration were held on March 22 at Salina; on April 12 in the Holidome in Manhattan; on July 26 at the Ramada Inn at Hays; on September 12 in Garden City; on October 24 at the Orville W. Garvey Center in Wichita; and on December 10 in the Council of Administration Room at Grand Lodge in Topeka. In addition, many informal meetings and discussions were held. The Council of Administration, on receiving recommendation from several lodges, did move and unanimously act to approve Life Memberships in accordance with By-law 4-402. This, for other than fifty year members. A special edition of the KANSAS MASON was authorized on December 27, 1986. However, it was noted that because of the changing policies of the Post Office Department, the expenses were extremely high and difficult to handle this additional edition. An outside group wishing to rent a Masonic hall at which alcoholic beverages would be dispensed was ruled against by the Grand Master. On April 10, a request was received from a high school principal for assistance for one of their students. This young student had been abused during her childhood and was never given the proper opportunity to pursue an education. After considerable discussion, it was moved, seconded and passed to assist this young student whose progress and diligent studies proved the decision to be good and of benefit to all concerned. A request was received from the family of a brother who had passed away asking for assistance in paying the balance of the funeral bill. This was referred on to the lodge which did not act further. Several consolidations under consideration were questioned and further investigation conducted before action was taken. Several lodge secretaries questioned the use of the Notice of Dues as delineated in By-law 4-308, LODGE DUES - PAYABLE IN ADVANCE - SUSPENSION. Further study and action to be considered. The Grand Secretary asked permission to begin a study in preparation for producing a "Secretary's Manual". Each lodge secretary in the jurisdiction would receive a manual upon its completion, with additional copies being supplied thereafter at cost. After in-depth discussion, it was decided to consider the revival of the Warden's Meetings as conducted in previous years. The Shrine, known as A.A.O.N.M.S. within the jurisdiction of Kansas, asked for permission to print "What is The Shrine". This was thoroughly reviewed, acted upon and given approval.

institutes. Further, they clearly stated that for one to be a Shriner he must first be a Mason. Again, approval was given. It was noted that in answer to the Grand Master's proclamation of St. John the Baptist Day, very strong support had been given throughout the Grand Jurisdiction. All lodges and Past Grand Masters assisting in this effort were highly commended for their action. Approval was given to the Chairman of the Masonic Education Committee and several others to attend the Midwest Masonic Educaction Meeting in Fargo, North Dakota on May 8 and 9, 1986. A number of complaints were received throughout the Grand Jurisdiction concerning ads being solicited under the name of "Holy Royal Arch Masons". Upon investigation, it was found to be the work of an unrecognized organization, but no further action was contemplated other than to identify the source. A request was received from the Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Japan to recover any World War I! mementos that might be in the hands of Masons in the Jurisdiction - in particular, the arm bands worn by the Japanese military which are sacred to their religion and have the names of their families embroidered thereon. No action taken. The Grand Secretary requested and received permission to further study the accessing of data records with a computer firm handling our affairs. This, with the view of possibly adding a computer in-house to further update procedures and progress toward the time when in-house work would be done entirely by the Grand Lodge staff. A request for support was received from the DeMolay publication. International DeMolay Cordon, to facilitate a special edition honoring the various states participating in the support of DeMolay. Unanimous approval was given to this request. The Grand Secretary reported a payroll audit by the State of Kansas. Contingency Funds were of particular concern and discussed by the person making the audit. Further action was not taken, although some corrective measures were suggested. The Grand Master announced the appointment of W:. Calvin E. Bruns to the vacant office of Grand Pursuivant. This, owing to the death of W:. Henry V. Beck. A District Lecturer program was discussed and reviewed with the hope that it could regenerate enthusiasm for more proficiency in ritualistic work. Further programs to be presented by the committee at a later date. The Grand Secretary, upon partial excavation of the foundation on the west side of the Grand Lodge office building, noted damage was far greater than anticipated. It would, therefore, be necessary to expose the entire foundation on the west side. Approximate cost, $37,000. Although the building was indeed plumb, square and level, the main problem seemed to be the waterproofing agent, thought to have been tar, had deteriorated during the years allowing an increasing flow of water through the basement level of the Grand Lodge building. It was noted that funds which had been set aside for the continuing replacement of the windows could be used to avoid invasion of invested funds or an appeal to the Craft. The Council approved the expenditures of Charity Funds in excess of $12,000 during the year. A special meeting including the Finance Committee was held in the Grand Lodge office building on December 10. Several items were discussed and, upon recommendation of the Grand Secretary, an IBM PC AT-339 and pro-print XL were purchased. Two Grand Lodge employees were authorized to take classes in the use of the computer which has a capacity of 50 MBs. Several overdraws were noted and after determining that it would not exceed the total budget, were authorized. The Council did review and discuss the possibility of accepting ads in the KANSAS MASON to defray expenses. Such proposition to be presented at this Annual Communication for further study and deliberation. The establishment of a booth at the Hutchinson State Fair was discussed and unanimously approved.

The Grand Secretary reported receiving a letter from the Grand Secretary of Tennessee noting that as our dual membership laws were not compatible, it would be necessary for two Tennessee Masons who held dual membership in Kansas Lodges and resided in Kansas, to immediately remove themselves from such membership with Kansas Lodges or face suspension. Other items were received, reviewed and acted upon, as will be reported elsewhere in the Grand Officer and Committee reports. Fraternally submitted. Albert 0. Arnold, Jr. Secretary to the Council

Greetings from Missouri R:.W:. Robert Jenkins, Grand Senior Warden of the Grand Lodge of Missouri expressed his appreciation for the many courtesies extended to he and his wife; and brought greetings and best wishes for a very successful Annual Communication from the Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Missouri.

REPORT OF THE NECROLOGY COMMITTEE M:.W:. Carroll C. Arnett, PGM, presented the following report which, on his motion, was accepted. At the conclusion of the report, prayer was offered by W:. Conrad F. Johnson, Grand Chaplain. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: Most Worshipful Grand Master and brethren, one year ago we stood with bowed heads reflecting together upon the thoughts of death. In this present hour we assemble again with similar purpose - not all of us, for some are now in that cold and silent tomb. One year from now we will gather with sobered face and thoughtful eye, and perhaps it may be you - and it may be I - whose face then only can be seen through memory's eye. Life is uncertain and little we know Which one of us will be next to go; But we're drawn closer together with each new mound That is made in that spot on the edge of town. During the year, the angel of death has received the dread mandate to strike from the roll of the living 1,789 of our brethren from the workman in the quarries - those who have worn the purple of our fraternity. To their families we bow our heads in sympathy for the loss we have all sustained. Though time with cunning skill Hath taken loved ones at his will. One thing he missed and it will be Forever ours - MEMORY. The line of the Grand Lodge Officers was broken with the death of W:. Henry V. Beck, Grand Pursuivant who died May 11, 1986. He is survived by two children and, as you are probably well aware, he was the husband of our Past Worthy Grand Matron, Jeanne Beck. He was a very loyal and devoted member of the fraternity and Craft, was active in the York Rite, and a member of the Red Cross of Constantine. He was retired from his professorship at Kansas State University. His specialty had been Geology. ~ A Special Communication of the M:.W:. Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas, called for the purpose of conducting funeral services for W:. Henry V. Beck, Grand Pursuivant, was opened at 9:00 A.M. on the Third Degree in the lodge hall of Lafayette Lodge No. 16, Manhattan, Kansas. The brethren then retired from the lodge and formed a procession from thence to the First United Methodist Church for religious services. The funeral procession then went to Sunrise Cemetery where M:.W:. Durward C. Danielson gave the graveside oration in a proficient manner. To you, Jeanne and your fine family, we share in your sadness. The circle of our Past Grand Masters has been broken in the passing of M:.W:. Addison C. Irby on Monday, May 12, 1986. He was Grand Master, March 12, 1959 to March 10, 1960.

Proceedings of the

Addison C. Irby used his musical talents to help pay for his medical education in the University of Mississippi and the Northwestern Medical School. He received his degree in 1928, and interned at Sydenham Hospital, Baltimore. He practiced medicine in Oklahoma City and later in Montague County, Texas. In 1940 he became associated with M:.W:. Claud Young in the Newman-Young Clinic, Fort Scott. He entered the Navy as a Lieutenant Commander in 1942, serving aboard ship and a year in the Aleutian Islands. Being desirous of specializing in Pediatrics, he spenf a year in graduate study in the University of Pennsylvania and a term at the Kansas L'niversity Medical Center. He was raised in Rising Sun Lodge No. 8, June 13, 1941, and was Master in 1952. He received recognition in the Scottish Rite by being Coroneted a 33° Honorary on December 5, 1959. Funeral services were conducted from the First Christian Church in Fort Scott on May 14, 1986. The Rose Croix was conducted by the valley of Fort Scott Scottish Rite. To his widow, Betsy, aiid sons, Kenneth and Jim, we share in your great loss. A devoted mason, R:.W:. Cecil S. Carter, Grand Lecturer Emeritus, died on December 15, 1986. His service to Grand Lodge as Lecturer was well known and, in addition, he was a regular and punctual attender at virtually all York Rite, Scottish Rite, Shrine and Eastern Star meetings in the area. He left two children, having been predeceased by Freida about ten years ago. We regret the sudden passing of W:. William S. Farr, a member of Hoisington Lodge #331 and Past Master of Coolidge Lodge #316, who was killed in a recent car-truck accident. He was a Past Grand High Priest of Royal Arch Masons and Past Illustrious Grand Master of the Grand Council of Kansas. With equal regret we report the passing of two fine brother masons, W:. Victor R. Petty, Jr. who passed away May 10, 1986, at the age of 53 and Brother Bennett W. Bubb who passed away December 15, 1986, at the age of 78. Brother Petty served as Grand Pursuivant in 1982. He is a Past Master of Wakarusa Lodge No. 402. Both of these brethren had outstanding community service and military records which were properly eulogized in their respective memoriams. We were saddened by the passing of M:.W:. Owen E. Hodgson's wife, Ella, on September 28, 1986. She was such a lovely person and devoted mate. M:.W:. Owen, we extend to you and your wonderful family our most heartfelt sympathy. As we close these moments of respect, may we remind you to go your way in peace. Be of good courage. Hold fast to that which is good; give no man evil for evil. Strengthen the faint hearted, support the weak, help and cheer the bereaved, honor all men, love and serve the Lord; and may the blessing of God be upon you, and remain with you forever. Who knows what wonders happen when we pray; What forces stir - what golden blessings run Toward us each time wesayin all sincerety THY WILL BE DONE! We cannot follow with our mortal sight The flight of prayer, we cannot hope to chart. But suddenly a light dawns and the weight is lifted from our heart. For prayer has power that we know not of. To heal and comfort to provide and bless; All the resources of Eternal Love Move to sustain us in the hour of stress. Clothing us safely round with strength and power. In even the darkest and most urgent hour. Respectfully submitted. Carroll C. Arnett, PGM, Chairman

REPORT OF GRAND LODGE PUBLICATIONS COMMITTEE W:. Floyd E. (Gene) Ramsey, Chairman, presented the following report which, on his motion, was accepted. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: It has been another busy year for the KANSAS MASON, and I again want to thank all those who have submitted articles for the publication. This past year, because of the second class postage increase, we did not print a special issue for "Grand Lodge", as we did last year. We had our regular four issues, and a special thank you to all the secretaries and Masters who took the time to send photos and news items for publication. These are the most important items we can use, and it is up to you to advertise your lodge activities through the KANSAS MASON. It is your publication and needs your support, both with news items and readership. Send us as many items as you can in advance of your meetings, if they will coincide with our publication dates which are printed in every issue, as well as our deadlines. I ask that any photographs that you forward, if possible, be in black and white with notation on the back of each photo of the date, purpose and identification of those appearing in the photograph. Again, may I express my sincere appreciation to the Craft and the Grand Master for the position of Editor of the KANSAS MASON. Respectfully and fraternally, Floyd E. (Gene) Ramsey, Chairman

REPORT OF RITUALISTIC COMMITTEE M:.W:. J. Fred Williamson, PGM, Chairman, presented the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: The Ritualistic Committee and the Grand Lecturers met in Salina Lodge No. 60 on the second Saturday of August, 1986. The programs for the 1986 District Meetings were approved and the Lecturers were assigned their meetings. The Ritual and extended floor plans were studied and a lot of effort was put forth to promote uniformity throughout this Grand Jurisdiction to make our extended floor plans conform to our instructions. It is recomended that the following change be made in the extended floor plans: Figure 23. After bringing to Light, 1 goes up to Altar and instructs Candidate relative to lights, then right-about-face to East, again right-about, and approaches Candidate (w)dei''-6-G-&-S4, stops, instructs in D G & S, again advances, etc. We propose to strike out (under D G & S ) . This would conform our extended floors to the traditionally given instruction on this movement. We appreciate Salina Lodge No. 60 allowing us to use their facilities. The District Lecture Program is growing and developing. It has proven very successful in most districts. We still need more district lecturers. This committee is most appreciative of the Grand Lecturers. They are a great bunch of dedicated brothers. They are to be commended for the fine job they do each year. Fraternally submitted. J. Fred Williamson, PGM, Chairman E. Dean Osborne Dwight Burton Lawrence D. Winegardner, PGM

REPORT OF THE CORRESPONDENCE COMMITTEE W:. Kenneth Dooley, Chairman, gave the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: This year we have had the assistance of several members of the Kansas Lodge of Research in reviewing the Grand Lodge Proceedings from other Jurisdictions. We have enjoyed the work and hope many Masons will read the report and find something of interest and value. There has been an increase of Lodge activities and programs in Masonic Education, Public Relations, Lodge Revitalization and many other programs for the purpose of improving attendance and increasing membership. These programs are proving to be successful as many Grand Lodges report increased activities and more candidates for the degrees. Awards The "Jordan Medal", a bronze medal, is provided to each lodge in Nebraska by the Grand Lodge each year. It is intended to be presented annually to the oldest member of each lodge living in Nebraska. M:.W:. Benjamin F. Eyre was presented the "Jordan Medal" at Grand Lodge in 1985. He is 97 years old and has been a member of Nebraska Lodge #1 for 68 years. He holds the oldest certificate of proficiency in the state, dated January 17, 1924. The Wisconsin Grand Masters Achievement Award was received by 95 lodges in 1985. Brother Ernest Borgnine, a member of a Virginia lodge, was presented the George Washington Distinguished Service Medal by the Grand Master of Virginia. Building An attempt was made to sell a Utah Grand Lodge parking lot for $500,000 to establish an endowment fund to assist with the expenses of operating the Salt Lake Masonic Temple. It was later determined to lease the parking lot for $50,000 per year to a nearby commercial establishment. During the 1984-85 year, the Grand Lodge of Nebraska's offices were moved from Omaha to Lincoln where office space has been leased. The Nebraska Masonic Foundation has been directed to conduct a fund-raising drive to build a new Grand Lodge Building to house the Grand Lodge offices, as well as a library and museum. On June 23, 1984, the Grand Master of Connecticut dedicated a new Temple in Hamden. The members of the lodge had sold the old Temple which had become outdated and expensive to operate and had built a new Temple with some of the proceeds invested for the maintenance of the new Temple. On September 8, the Daskan Lodge was dedicated. On October 17th, the laying of the cornerstone for Ashlar Village took place. This is one of the outstanding elderly housing developments. The Home Building Fund in Oregon had an addition of about $188,000 from estates and contributions. The purpose of the fund is to build a new nursing home. There were 5 dedications and 2 cornerstone laying ceremonies in Oregon. The Grand Master of Florida laid nine cornerstones and had two cornerstones laid. One of the cornerstone laying ceremonies was for the new Shrine Crippled Childrens Hospital in Tampa. The Grand Master of Nevada laid nine cornerstones in 1984. South Carolina Grand Lodge had 3 cornerstone laying ceremonies, 3 Temples dedicated and 2 lodges were consecrated, dedicated and constituted. There were cornerstone laying ceremonies in Iowa for new Temples at Carroll and Montrose, for a fire station at Coralville and two at Clarinda, the Page County Courthouse and the Clarinda Treatment Center. Both cornerstones at Clarinda were laid 100 years ago and, as part of the Centennial Celebration, were relaid. In Wisconsin the Grand Master presided at 11 cornerstone laying ceremonies - 5 lodges, 2 schools, 2 libraries, 1 housing development, 1 hospital.

By-law Changes The Grand Lodge of Utah accepted and passed a resolution appointing a new standing committee for Community Service and Public Relations, in part to maximize utilization of the news media at the local level and at the state-wide level when appropriate. The Nebraska Grand Master found the Constitution and By-laws to be "not clear or complete as to the proper procedure...redundant and conflicting...", and he requested the Grand Lodge Officers to "...review and propose changes to our current Constitution and By-laws". The Grand Lodge having recently purchased a complete computer system, the Grand Master of Nebraska proposed changing the wording of the By-laws which defines the duties of the Grand Secretary from primarily clerical to that of actively promoting Masonry among the membership. His position would be changed from that of a full-time employee to one of receiving a monthly automobile allowance plus expenses. The Grand Master proposed that the Nebraska Committee of Work study the current cipher, available only to selected persons, and bring it into conformity with Nebraska ritual; and that the Grand Lodge publish an official cipher, as well as a separate cipher of questions and answers to be used by candidates in preparing for proficiency examinations - which each Mason could then purchase for his own use, but which could not be used in open lodge. With the availability of an authorized cipher, the newly installed officers of each lodge would be required to demonstrate to the Grand Custodian, within 90 days of their installation, that they were proficient in the opening and closing of all three degrees. In Arkansas a resolution was presented to lower the age requirement to 18 years. An amendment in Oregon to delete the word "secret" from "secret society" in the Landmarks of Freemasonry was rejected. An amendment that the District Deputy shall have served as Master of a Chartered Lodge in the Jurisdiction was adopted. An amendment to allow all general business to be conducted in the lodge open on the Entered Apprentice Degree was rejected. A proposed amendment "Each Lodge Secretary and Treasurer shall be bonded for a minimum amount of $1,000 each, the bond to be carried by the Grand Lodge unless the Lodge chooses to be bonded by a private bonding company" was adopted in South Carolina. A Colorado Committee on Revision of the Book of Constitution proposed 41 pages of changes, and all amendments were adopted. An Ad Hoc Committee was appointed by the Grand Master for the purpose of revising the Oklahoma Grand Lodge Constitution and Code. The final draft was expected in 1986. Charity The Utah Grand Lodge Committee on Charity reported that during the year 1984 they received no request for assistance. The Grand Lodge of Nebraska co-sponsors the Masonic Eastern Star Home for children. The President of the Board states that the facility has beautiful buildings and grounds. The Board believes there is a greater need for the service provided than ever before, therefore, the Home will require "more funds, more interest and dedication from all of us". In Oregon a check for $1,000 was sent to the Masonic Service Association to aid the country of Chile. They had an earthquake in which a lot of Lodge property was lost. 727 Florida lodges contributed at least $50 to an organized charity or needy cause. 328 Florida lodges in the "Let Your Pennies Make Good Sense" program contributed $377,246. With all other donations, the grand total was $428,984.69. The lodges of Oklahoma have been assisted in their charitable work by the "Funds Matching Program". 94 lodges participated and received over $126,000 from the fund in 1984. Dues and Fees A proposed amendment to determine the per capita dues in Michigan by dividing the General Fund Budget by the number of lodge members was defeated.

Proceedings of the

March

A resolution to increase the per capita tax two dollars from $6 to $8 failed in Oklahoma. A motion to continue the $1 special assessment for 1985 prevailed. In Oklahoma a resolution to increase the minimum fees for the three degrees from $30 to $60 and increase the minimum dues from $4 to $10 was adopted. Finances The Nebraska Grand Lodge had a net loss of almost $23,000, and the Nebraska Masonic Home showed a net loss in 1985 of $357,474. The Grand Secretary of Oregon reported: "The General Fund has not had adequate income to meet the ever rising expenses of operating the Grand Lodge. ...the Budget Committee has designed a plan (to include the $1.00 per capita increase) which could put the General Fund back in the black again." The Delaware Finance and Audit Committee recommended the per capita assessment per member be $4.50 which was approved. The Grand Master of Vermont reported "Sale of the Masonic Temple has resulted in additional income from investments available to our Grand Lodge. ... To help us in our deliberations I have appointed a special committee to deal with financial planning." Historical Information The 1985 Grand Master of Virginia was installed with the jewel made by Paul Revere for George Washington's installation as the first Grand Master of Virginia. Because of George Washington's commitment to the Continental Army and the service to his country in 1778, he was unable to serve as the first Grand Master of Virginia. The History of Urbana Lodge No. 83, A.F. & A.M., from 1872 to 1984 which consists of 44 pages is printed in the 1985 Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Virginia. The Maine Committee on History reported: "...this Committee has been charged with the preparation of material to assist the lodges in the transition from ten-year to annual histories. ...the Committee will continue to work on forms with which you could report by filling in the blanks." In 1994 the Grand Lodge of Vermont plans to celebrate their 200th birthday. A Masonic history, "The Sunshine and Shadows, 200 Years of Vermont Masonry", is being written. On July 9, 1989, the Grand Lodge of New Hampshire will celebrate the 200th birthday of Masonry in that state at the William Pitt Tavern in Portsmouth. Over $433,000 has been raised for the restoration of the birthplace of Masonry in New Hampshire, the William Pitt Tavern in Portsmouth. Increased Membership The Grand Secretary of Utah urged those in attendance "to give more balance to the concept of 'membership'," and expressed his feeling that "our enthusiasm for attracting new members should be matched with an equal interest in retaining those already on the rolls". The newly Installed Grand Master of Oregon reported: "...I feel visibility is the key to our growth. Therefore, I challenge each of you to become involved in the Lodge community, with our youth and the church of your choice." Insurance The Grand Lodge of Indiana has a new insurance program. (1) Workers Compensation provides coverage for each symbolic lodge. (2) Fidelity Bonding - the basic limit was increased from $5,000 to $25,000. A number of lodges have a need for increased coverage and are insured at the increased limits. The insurance includes coverage for loss of money and Lodge Paraphernalia. A questionnaire was sent to obtain information needed for group liability insurance. The New Hampshire Grand Lodge and Constituent Lodges have $1,000,000 Liability coverage at an annual cost of $11,374 for a membership of 13,178.

Leadership and Masonic Education Each of the 24 Districts in Maine held a District Educational Meeting. These meetings were non-ritualistic, focusing on subjects of general interest and information and were not just for officers but for all the members. Some of the Special Programs of the Masonic Education and Lodge Service Committee in Maine are: Masonic Education for the Candidate and New Master Masons; Advanced Masonic Education; and Masonic Resources and Lodge Program Material. The District Representatives and District Deputies help present the programs. The Grand Lecturer of Nevada reported: "For the first time since I have held office, a Deputy Grand Lecturer was appointed for every Constituent Lodge. Reporting on the Area Leadership Conference, the Grand Master of Virginia stated that "Charles Wesley Emerson said that the chief end of education is a correct estimate of values and a corresponding choice. We remember that money does not buy character, leadership, contentment or happiness. These we must find within ourselves. We might ask ourselves, are we growing in Masonry, enlarging not our numbers but in Ideals? ...What are we willing to give that coming generations may share in the democracy that Masonry can produce? ...Masonic Education begins with Masons being Masons - with the individual living perfect ideals in an imperfect system - living purely among all impurity. The new light of Masonry rules out the rigidity caused by adherence to old and useless patterns and those that cannot adapt to changing conditions. However, the new light shines both ways, lighting up the good of the past as well as the future. William Shakespeare said 'The past is a prologue of the future'. The good of the past was simply Masons living Masonry ..." "Operation Uplift" is a challenge to the members of Michigan lodges to take an active part by participating in the activities of their lodge. "From Point to Pointe", a Grand Lodge Publication, will cost members 75 cents each. The leadership material in the three-ring binders will cost each member about 7 cents. The newly installed Grand Master of Arkansas reported: "The aim of last year's program and this year's is revitalization of our local lodges. ...We must provide leadership, training-instruction and assistance to the Lodge Officers and Brethren. ...Our most important purpose is to teach Masonry to Masons. Our mission is to educate our members about the organization to which they have joined. We must stop treating a newlyraised Master Mason as a finished product." Over 60 Oklahoma lodges have completed the Series I Masonic Education Correspondence Course. The Oklahoma Masonic Education Handbook is now available for use with the correspondence course. The Correspondence Course, Series I and II, are among the requirements to complete the Awards of Excellence Program. The Grand Master of Pennsylvania reported: "At no time in Masonic History has there been a greater need for understanding what Freemasonry is and what it stands for than there is today. Much has been left undone in the education of members of our Lodges. Every Lodge should have a definite program along authentic Masonic Education lines. We must understand what Freemasonry really Is before we can practice Freemasonry in our lives." He also reported: "One of the first requirements in a Back to the Basics of Freemasonry effort, is an absolute allegiance to the basic unit of Freemasonry, the Blue Lodge. ...Learning and living the basic lessons taught in the Blue Lodge Is all that is needed to fulfill the one and only purpose of Freemasonry which is a pursuit of excellence." Life Membership The total life membership In Michigan was 18,045 and 1,965 life memberships were issued in 1984. An amendment was adopted to amend the present Prepaid Membership Plan in Michigan. In 1982 the Prepaid Membership Plan was suspended becuase it was considered unworkable. A study has been made, and it now appears to be workable. The prepaid membership cost is the Lodge dues plus the Per Capita plus the Masonic Home Assessment and any other charge, times the factor - beginning with a factor of 20 for members 21 - 29, decreasing to 11.3 at 69. All over 70 have a factor of 7. In Connecticut a coimiittee was appointed to study the purchase fee and age structure of the life membership program. The committee found the purchase fee and age structure to be equitable and reconmended they be'continued as given in the code.

The Oregon Grand Secretary reported: "This past year the Life Membership Fund increased by $89,438 which is a substantial gain over the previous year of $74,000. ... due to the fact that the large reserve account has been maintained for many years, the Trustees of the Grand Lodge have approved payment of a 12* return on Life Memberships as of December 31, 1984 ..." In Nevada there were 532 Prepaid Life Memberships with $197,538 on deposit. There was $17,606.94 income on these funds, payable tb'the lodges at the first of the year. Funds are invested in Bank CDs, Savings & Loans, U.S. Treasury Notes, etc. Vermont had 83 paid-up Life Members in 1985. There is $194,000 in the Wisconsin Perpetual Membership Fund. each lodge's members are available.

Lodge of Research Nebraska has two Masonic research organizations. The Nebraska Society for Masonic Research was formed in 1981, primarily for the purpose of collecting and preserving information on the history of Masonry in Nebraska. Later a need was recognized for a formal Lodge of Research. The Roscoe Pounds Lodge of Research No. 329 was chartered on June 14, 1985. It will exchange information with other Lodges of Research in other states and will publish Masonic research. The Grand Master of Tennessee issued a dispensation for Tennessee Lodge of Research, F. & A.M., U/D. The Michigan Lodge of Research and Information continued under dispensation for the second year. The Committee on the Florida Lodge of Research reported "Our Lodge of Research has moved steadily ahead and has begun to accomplish the purpose for which it was established". The total membership is now 851. The Grand Master of Virginia stated "Research is not a thing we do in the laboratory. It is a state of mind. When we are willing to learn, information is available to us." The purpose of the Delaware Lodge of Research is that of diffusing the genuine principal of Freemasonry and promoting, encouraging, conducting and fostering Masonic Research and Study and the spreading of Masonic Light and Knowledge. Masonic Hospitality Suite The Louisiana Worlds Fair Committee reported that the Masonic Hospitality Suite in the International Hotel was an outstanding success. For a period of six months they welcomed many brethren from other Grand Lodges. Masonic Home The Grand Master of Delaware reported that the Masonic Home was filled to capacity, and plans for expansion are well advanced. Membership The Grand Master of Connecticut stated: "I am enough of a pragmatist to believe that an organization has to be strong, vital and alive in order to profit from any membership corapaign. ...no one likes to back a loser and not until Freemasonry is perceived an organization made up of winners and those who are successful in their careers and businesses will we be able to achieve significant increases in membership." In Oregon about 300 Master Masons were raised per year from 1981 to 1984. 2,429 Master Masons were raised in 1944. The greatest number of members in Oregon was 44,546 in 1958. In 1984, there were 26,847 members. Nevada Grand Lodge has for 16 years had a program of letter writing to lower the number of suspended for non-payment of dues. Of the 108 members from 18 lodges who received letters, 60 paid their dues and 44 were suspended. The Grand Master of Iowa reported: "...one of those problems, some of us are convinced, is a lack of enhancement of our 'image' as a Fraternity to the public at large and to ourselves. ...Masonry must project itself in such a way that the world at large will be convinced of its good effect. Only then, I truly believe, will we be able to make a turnaround in membership."

The Grand Master of Florida chartered three new Lodges in 1984. Proficiency In Arkansas a resolution was presented to require Master Masons to prove proficiency before being allowed to petition any organization which has a prerequisite requirement of being a Master Mason. A pilot program of classes in the lectures of the three degrees has been successful and over 150 Certificates of Proficiency have been awarded in South Carolina. Public Relations An amendment to the Grand Lodge Code of Utah was made organizing a standing committee of Community Service and Public Relations to consist of six members. The coiiriittee will act as a clearing house for public emergency preparedness, disaster relief, etc., support and assist the lodges in making maximum use of the news media, obtain news coverage of special observances, etc. and assist in other areas suggested by the Grand Master. The chairman of the Publicity and Public Relations Committee of Connecticut presented to the Grand Lodge for its first showing the film "The Quiet Fraternity". This film was developed to promote Freemasonry. Contributions to make the film were received from all Masonic Bodies. The film was well received by all present. The Florida Public Relations Committee ran a campaign to let the public know what the Freemasons are doing for the less fortunate. They placed ads in the newspapers and on radio. Scholarships and Assistance The Grand Lodge Trustees of Oregon reported they have given assistance to 34 students from kindergarten through the twelfth grade and to five post-high school students. The Florida Lodges awarded 72 scholarships of at least $100 to deserving students. Special Awards Unique among the 50-year Pin Presentations in Utah in 1985 were Pin Presentations made to a Past Grand Master and two brothers. These brethren received all three of their degrees in the same lodge on the same date fifty years ago, and received their 50-year Pins at the same meeting this year. State of the Craft The Grand Master of Connecticut reported "the condition of the membership is not as alive and vital as it could be if each of us would take the time and effort to actively participate in a program to revitalize our craft. The solution to the lack of attendance at meetings is not new members. Rather the solution is a revitalization of our existing members. ...we are only kidding ourselves if we think we can maintain the status quo. Masonry is no different than business and we either progress or regress. Standby stewardship is unacceptable in this Jurisdiction." The Grand Master of Oregon reports: "I believe we are entering a period of revival we are advancing into a new time of innovative and imaginative activities in Freemasonry. We are not abandoning our purposes, we stand firm there. But we are establishing Masons and Masonry as part and place of the community."

REPORT OF THE KANSAS MASONIC FOUNDATION, INC. Brother James L. Claussen, Executive Director of the Kansas Masonic Foundation, Inc., presented the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: The Foundation moves into its 20th year with steadily growing support and interest from Brothers all over Kansas and around the world. Our purpose is to extend Masonic charity to all mankind and as our programs grow more and more people around the state become aware of the good things abounding In Masonry. The promotion of educational, scientific and charitable programs for all people in the name of Kansas Masons continues as detailed in the following report. Kansas Masonic All-State High School Band The 1986 Band camp was held in late July at the University of Kansas in Lawrence in collaboration with the East-West Shrine Bowl football game on August 2. We ended up with 173 students in the 5-day camp. For some unexplained reason, we had 14 cancellations or "no shows" during the week or 10 days immediately before camp. I am now thinking that we will be leveling off at about 200 students in our band. These students were sponsored by 149 Lodges or Masonic organizations around the state, 33 of these being new sponsors this year. These sponsors Included 133 Lodges, 6 Eastern Star Chapters, 8 Shrine Units, 1 Scottish Rite and 1 Masonic District. We will continue to emphasize the "All-Masonic" aspect of this band with emphasis on Lodge sponsorships. We hope these students go back to their home towns with a new appreciation and understanding of Masons and Masonry. I feel sure they went back saying they had fun, worked hard and had an excellent learning experience musically.

Grand Lodge of Kansas

For the first time this year we used Masonic Hosts at camp on a 24-hour basis. Brother Masons from a 50 mile radius around Lawrence volunteered to come in for an eight hour shift and help chaperone and assist the young people. 33 Masons from 16 Lodges helped out, and we really appreciated their assistance. I think they also went back to their home Lodge with a new outlook on our Band. We also expanded our "band uniform" this year. In addition to the traditional yellow T-shirt, each student received a 1986 Masonic Band cap. I hope we see these caps all over the state during this coming year. The University of Kansas treated us very well and we need to give special Dr. Robert E. Foster, Director of Bands, and his capable and energetic staff assistants. A total of about 10 staff were working with the kids during the including the three K.U. Drum Majors. This contribution on their part is of worth to us and our Band program.

thanks to and student entire camp irrmeasurable

The 1987 Masonic Band will move back to the Kansas State University campus in Manhattan. This is where the first band was formed, and we know that they will offer a great experience for our Kansas youngsters. Foundation "C-Club" The Individual contributions from Kansas Masons around the world continues to be the major fund raising project for your Foundation. We have received over 2,000 responses to this year's mail appeal with a high proportion being first-time donors. The "C-Club" pin which is presented when contributions accumulate to $500 is now being worn by more than 50 Brothers. Our new Diamond Donor plaque is presented to those whose contributions exceed $1,000 and is on display here at Grand Lodge. 16 of our Brothers have earned this plaque. For this we are truly grateful. Each Mason who contributed to the "C-Club" has his name placed on the "C-Club plaque in his home Lodge. We. hope that now all of these plaques are in good repair and maintain a proud position in the Lodges whose members have contributed. All of the proceeds of the "C-Club" program go to support our primary charity - the Kansas Masonic Oncology Clinic at the K.U. Medical Center. The Kansas Masonic Oncology Clinic This Clinic, established in 1974 and located at the K.U. Medical Center in Kansas City, Kansas, continues to be the primary beneficiary of our Foundation. The basic grant to the Clinic was increased to $90,000 this year. Additional funds are Identified and sent to the Clinic during the year. All net proceeds from the Band and "C-Club" campaign go toward fulfilling this grant obligation. Under the direction of Dr. Jane Henney, the Clinic continues to treat more cancer patients. Last year they recorded 4,225 adult patient visits and 1,100 children patient visits. More cancer treatment is being performed on an out-patient basis and this clinic is in the forefront of treatment methodology. Cancer patients and their families also need support coping with this disease and the changes in their lives accompanying it. Kansas Masons can be extremely proud of the work being done in their name at this clinic. Our grant funds the positions of Senior Nurse Clinician, Pediatric Nurse Clinician, Pharmacist, and Resource Coordinator. Student Loans Each year a limited number of low interest educational loans are made available to qualified Kansas students to help finance their university, college or technical school education. After completion of studies, these loans are payable over four years at a 5% interest rate. During 1986 we granted loans to five new students. These students came from Newton, Jamestown, Manhattan and Hugoton. This brings to 34 the number of students either still in school or presently repaying their loans. As of December 31, 1986, the outstanding loans totalled $74,810.

Inquiries and applications for student loans should be directed to the Foundation office in Topeka. We are also serving as agent for two other student loan programs started as memorials by families and friends of departed Brothers. Living Memorials When you wish to honor a departed friend or loved one, you may do so by sending a Living Memorial Gift to the Foundation's Memorial Fund. A gift acknowledgement is sent to both the family and to the donor. The Memorial is permanently maintained in the Foundation office and all memorial funds are placed in our permanent endowment fund. This ensures perpetual support for the Masonic charitable activities. Many Brothers and Lodges are using this Living Memorial program and contribution forms are available from the office. Deferred Gifts and Charitable Estate Planning Proper planning can reduce the exposure of your estate to taxation, increase financial prosperity for you and your family, and increase giving both now and in the future to the charities of your choice. The Kansas Masonic Foundation is in a unique position to help you with this planning and to assist in implementing the plans. John Griffin with Stewardship Counseling, Inc., has been engaged to assist Masons in Kansas with their plans, and has already met with and helped many Brothers. John is an expert in charitable estate planning and works with you, your lawyer, banker and accountant to help reach your goals. This service costs you nothing as his fee is being paid by the Foundation and other organizations around the state. If you would like to visit with John at any time, call the Foundation office.

I particularly want to thank the Board of Directors and Trustees for their diligent efforts in managing the affairs of the Foundation. Most particularly, my thanks to President Don Horttor who agreed to serve as our leader for an additional year during my indoctrination. Brother Horttor and the Directors and Trustees ensure to all Masons that the Foundation continues to operate in the most efficient and ethical manner. I have enjoyed visiting many Lodges and Brothers around the state and hope you will continue to call upon me for information, service, programs and materials. Together we can enhance the name of Kansas Masonry. Respectfully submitted. James L. "Jim" Claussen Executive Director

REPORT OF TRIALS AND PUNISHMENTS COMMITTEE M:.W:. John H. Murray, PGM, Chairman, gave the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: We regret to report that we received nine cases during the year and that we have completed the following; 1. A brother was charged with possession of narcotics and conduct unbecoming a Mason to which charge he pleaded guilty after a conviction in the civil courts for which he was placed on probation for three years. On his plea of guilty, our committee suspended him for the period of his probation. 2. A brother was charged with arson and attempted theft on which he had been charged in civil courts and found guilty. We found him guilty and his punishment was expulsion. 3. A member was charged with forgery and his answer was "I am most guilty" so the order of the committee was that he should be expelled. 4. A member was charged with indecent liberties with two juveniles to which charges he pleaded no contest, so the committee found him guilty and fixed punishment at explusion. 5. A member was charged with unnatural sex act after conviction in civil court, but in his plea indicated that the civil case was on appeal. Therefore, the matter was delayed until conclusion of civil appeal and will go over to the next committee.

6. A brother was charged with aggravated battery of a child after pleading guilty in civil court and was served with papers on this charge since January 1, 1987. Case has been set after Grand Lodge so will be in next year's report. 7. Our committee has received three new cases since March 1, 1987. Sunmons have been sent in all of them, but answers are not due until after Grand Lodge so these will be referred to next year's committee. Your chairman was on vacation for a spell, and there was some delay in appointment of this committee. In addition, the chairman was incapacitated for several weeks, delaying actions on some of the matters. We will make all pending matters available to the next committee. We do thank all for your patience in these important matters. Respectfully submitted, John H. Murray, PGM, Chairman Richard A. Porter, PGM Basil Marhofer J. Wayne Pipkin Kevin R. Peterson REPORT OF FOREIGN RELATIONS COMMinEE M:.W:. Forrest D. Haggard, PGM, Chairman, gave the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: It is a privilege to have served Grand Lodge and our Grand Master, Durward C. Danielson, on this committee. To sumtarize the work of the Foreign Relations Committee has been well expressed by M:.W:. Ralph Pollard, PGM, of Maine and, for years, their Foreign Relations Committee Chairman. "The formal recognition of another sovereign Masonic Power is by far the most important and far-reaching act which a Grand Lodge can be called upon to perform and a heavy burden of responsibility rests upon those whose duty it is to advise the Grand Lodge on such matters. A mistake or an error of judgement on their part can result in the most serious consequences, not only to their own Grand Lodge but to the Masonic Fraternity as a whole. Organizations, like individuals, are judged by the company they keep. Recognition carries with it the unqualified endorsement of the Grand Lodge granting such recognition, and indicates its complete approval of the principles, practices and association of the body recognized. This being so, it is clear that too much care cannot be taken in the investigation of applicant bodies, particularly of those hailing from sections of the world where un-masonic principles and practices are known to flourish. "The problem of recognition, always difficult enough, is now complicated by the confused and unsatisfactory conditions existing in many parts of the world. In many countries, the Craft also suffers under varying degrees of governmental interferences, clerical opposition and popular disfavor. Political instability, resulting from recurrent revolutions, makes for Masonic insecurity, for tolerant governments may at any time be replaced by governments which are actively hostile to our Fraternity. At the same time, the Craft in many countries suffers from internal difficulties. "Needless to say, these confused conditions make the whole question of foreign fraternal relations extremely difficult. Under the circumstances, caution is only coninon sense. We must not be misled by the myth of Masonic universality, but must always remember that what passes for Freemasonry in many foreign countries is something quite different from the Freemasonry taught and practiced by the Grand Lodges here in the States. The mere fact that certain foreign bodies are not recognized by the Grand Lodge, does not, of itself, indicate any hostility or even disapproval of the Grand Lodge. Such lack of recognition may result from many different causes. It may, for instance, mean only that the unrecognized body has never seen fit to request recognition or it may mean only that political conditions in the countries concerned are such as to make Masonic recognition meaningless. There is little point in recognizing bodies which have been forced into exile, which have been driven underground, or which lead a precarious existence under either unfriendly or unstable governments. It may mean only that we do not have sufficient reliable governments. It may mean only that we do not have sufficient reliable information upon which to base an intelligent recommendation. In all such cases, lack of recognition involves no condemnation and deferment of action is entirely without prejudice to the body concerned."

Your Chairman has had, for many years, an acquaintanceship with most of the leaders in Freemasonry of other Grand Jurisdictions, and has traveled and visited Grand Lodges in many foreign countries. It is difficult, if not impossible, to really understand situations in other Grand Lodges unless one visits, knows, and communicates at length with those Grand Lodges. BRAZIL: We have two Grand Lodges that have requested recognition from us: The Grand Lodge of Estado de Sao Paulo, Sao Paulo, Brazil and the Grand Lodge of Columbia at Cartagena. (Both in South America) Our waiting on recommendation has nothing to do with their published intent and/or landmarks, but is simply due to the very fluid situation in South America. FINLAND: Correspondence with their Grand Lodge as they asked information about an "intended" influx of American Masons into their country. We assumed we were dealing with a tour agency and their "Masonic promotion" of a trip. FRANCE (Grand Lodge Nationale): We issued a warning to our Grand Lodge Officers that correspondence from this, a regular body, should not be answered since it was from an individual and a solicitation for funds. FRANCE (The Grand Orient): Warning to Grand Lodge Officers that the Grand Orient is NOT a regular body of Freemasonry and correspondence from them does not warrant any response. GREECE (Grand Lodge of): Correspondence with the Grand Lodge of Greece points up a severe rift within that body and the attempted formation of a new Grand Lodge. It is a situation where both the Scottish Rite and the York Rites are deeply involved in the affair and is unfortunate. HAITI (Grand Orient of): A request for our recognition of this Irregular body was received by this Committee. We did not even bother with a reply. IRAN (Grand Lodge in Exile): It should be noted in all your correspondence and records that the Grand Lodge of Iran is (in Exile). There is no Freemasonry (as such) in Iran at the present time. ISRAEL (Grand Orient of): We are pleased to have notification of the appointment of a hew representative in Israel for the Grand Lodge of Kansas. M:.W:. Danielson confirmed the choice of R:.W:. Samuel Paphaeli. ITALY (Grand Orient of): The Committee is pleased that the Masonic World, in general, has stayed with the Grand Orient as being Regular (our recommendation) in spite of the recommendation of the Committee on Information and Recognition to the contrary. I feel patience and forebearance with our Sister Grand Lodge is much in order. JAPAN (Grand Lodge of): The Grand Lodge of Japan has issued a request for "The Repatriation of War Artifacts or Souvenirs" (such as diaries, personal photos, letters, etc., that might have been taken during WW II). Leaders in Freemasonry have given personal approval to this project as one worthy of consideration by the "Masonic family". If you have or hold such items, that might be of deep emotional personal value to a Japanese family, and if you desire to return them, you may make contact through the office of the Grand Secretary. OTHER GRAND JURISDICTIONS WITHIN THE USA: We regret that some of our Kansas Brothers have been caught in the "differences" that exist between Grand Lodges and their rules and regulations. This can be especially difficult in the arena of dual membership. Careful study and correspondence by your Grand Secretary is appreciated in these situations. Again, "RECOGNITION" is a prime factor in Freemasonry and cannot be overlooked nor ignored. We seriously recoimiend to the Craft the obtaining of, by each member who may plan to travel, the "SHORT TALK BULLETIN", Vol. 64, April 1986, No. 4: "Travel in Foreign Countries". Your local Lodge Secretary received a copy - he should pass it around. In closing, we wish to express our appreciation to the Office of our Grand Secretary and to his staff for their service in translation, communication and correspondence on behalf of this Committee.

The Temple Building and Remodeling Committee is pleased to have served the Grand Master in this capacity. Although not a lot of new building was begun in 1985, the Committee feels the local Lodges are considering their finances before undertaking a longterm commitment for new Lodge facilities.

50-YEAR EMBLEM PRESENTATION At the altar, M:.W:. Arthur C. Hodgson, PGM, made a personal and moving presentation of a 50-Year Emblem to M:.W:. S. Allan Daugherty, PGM, as follows: "Most Worshipful Grand Master, Brethren and Most Worthipful Brother Allan, "The constraints of time and the business of Grand Lodge will not permit a lengthy presentation, but it seems especially appropriate that one who has served this grand Lodge as its Grand Master, and who has given exemplary and dedicated service to Masonry, should be receiving his 50-Year Emblem in the Grand Lodge over which he presided in 1952. "We could recount the many changes which have occurred in practically all walks of life and in every human endeavor during the last 50 years, and while much has changed, yet much remains constant; and one of those constants is the idealism and the teachings of Masonry. "In thinking of what would be most appropriate to say on an occasion such as this, I want to reflect for a few minutes on what makes you, in my opinion, such an outstanding man and such an outstanding Mason. I suppose number one would be your concern for others. This concern could perhaps best be exemplified in your nearly 25 years as Superintendent of the Kansas Masonic Home; and during that time I have been present on many occasions and during the years 1964 and early 1965 I was an unexpected caller on many occasions. I have been through the entire home with you time and again, but never did I see the time when you were too busy to greet a brother or a sister, call them by name, ask them about their loved ones by name, and show a genuine concern for the sister or brother. This is a.marvelous ability and one that is not frequently found to the extent that you have /exhibited. "There are many other occasions, of course, which readily come to mind and I think of the many newspapers from Linn County that you saved for my wife to read sine you were both natives of that area and had many ties to Linn County. I think also of your search for a post card album for a little grandson of mine when my search didn't come up with anything and then the cards that you sent, which delight the heart of a young collector of postcards. "Certainly your life would not be complete nor would this presentation be appropriate without mention of your lifelong companion, Lucille, who has stood by you in your endeavors and has been a woman of talent, of love and concern, not only for you but for those you were seeking to serve. "Any father would hope to have an illustrious son, and I certainly feel that this has been your good fortune; and that your son, Dennis, has showed the quality of the metal from which he has been forged in the leadership he has shown in DeMolay. Some of my most pleasant memories as Grand Master relate to meetings in which your son, Dennis, had a prominent part. "You are to be commended for the breadth endeavors to which you devote your time and less others. We are grateful and we salute he professes, and a citizen always alert to be of service to others.

of your interests and for the many worthwhile talent. You have enriched my life and countyou as a man of worth, a Mason who lives what the needs of others, and one seeking ways to

"We collectively wish for you good health, good spirits and willingness to continue your service to others." M:.W:. Daugherty expressed his joy and pleasure at being a member of the Fraternity, and his appreciation for receiving the 50-Year Emblem from the hand of M:.W:. Hodgson who is a friend and fraternal acquaintance of many years. H:.W:. Durward C. Oanlelson offered congratulations to M:.W:. Daugherty for 50 years of unparalleled devotion, loyalty and hard work in the cause of the Fraternity.

REPORT OF OPERATION "KAN" COMMITTEE W:. Glenn L. Knapp, Chairman, submitted the following report which, on his motion, was accepted. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: Many Brothers are ritualists, others are workers in the degrees, some are willing helpers when called on. We have good cooks and dinning room helpers. Most of us are versed in the 06:30°. Let us not forget the Worshipful Master - he is the one who sets the Craft to work and gives them proper instructions. There are many things we all can do. First, let us not forget the precepts of our order. Let us add dignity to labor, and in our dealings with our fellow-man be honest, be just and fear not. We must avoid intemperance in eating, drinking and language; also in work and recreation; and whatever we do, strive to do well. Let us be quiet, peaceful citizens, visit the sick and shut-ins, feeding the hungry, helping the fatherless and the widows, and keeping ourselves unspotted by the world. OPERATION "KAN" is one of our Grand Lodge Programs designed to help the Newly Made Amputee and their family. Working together we can accomplish much. Let's let them know that we care. Our Grand Secretary will be glad to put you in touch with someone who can answer your questions. Fraternally submitted. Glenn L. Knapp, Chairman Larry M. Lein William J. Colnar Lemoin Landau

Observations and study i n d i c a t e t o me t h a t each candidate f o r Freemasonry should answer these questions i n h i s own heart before he i s made a Mason: 1.

Who are the persons involved i n the r e l a t i o n s h i p s between the Church and the Lodge?

2.

What i s the purpose of the Lodge f o r i t s members - i n the mortal l i f e , and i n the eternal l i f e ?

3.

Are members o f the Lodge able t o become members of the Church?

The conrnon uniting bond was their belief in the true line, the square corner and the smooth surface. They translated these ideas into a respect for truth and goodness, regardless of each understanding as to the theology behind the Plan of the world in which they lived. They congregated in places called lodges. They became known as Masons. Classifications were made in proportion to the degrees of skills in construction and in leadership - from the beginner, to the master of the work. These craftsmen were thought to possess mysteries because of their great success in their construction methods, especially in the great temples, cathedrals and churches in the various lands. They developed an ability to recognize each other - by virtue of the excellence with which they performed their work, and by modes of recognition. They associated the success of their efforts and the skills with which they accomplished these great works with their relationships to Deity. They were in demand by governments, religions, and all persons who desired works of construction. They could travel from place to place, to foreign countries, and receive the benefits conferred by the rulers. Hence, the terra "Freemasons". The Lodges opened their doors to men of other vocations who believed that the relationship of an individual to successful accomplishments is the result of the relationship of such individual with his Deity. So a Mason became known as a man of God. The fundamental truths with which the craftsmen worked and the results achieved by their building procedures, together with the high standards of morality and integrity required of them by their brethren, increased the number of their admirers. Only despotic and tyrannical rulers, heretical religious hierarchies and fanatical zealots have endeavored to prohibit the union of the craftsmen as Masons. That a man must believe in the Deity, before he can be made a Mason, is universal wherever the country - whatever the religion. He must be acceptable to the members of the Lodge in which he works because it is necessary that there be harmony in the lives and work of men who are in the business of building - whether it be a temple, a government, a church edifice or a city; whether it be teaching a class, raising a child or ruling a nation. The recognition by the craftsmen that the Deity is the source of all good has made the members of the Lodge believe such to be a part of the Eternal Plan for mankind. It confuses no one, offends no one, and leaves the minds of men free to build toward an Everlasting Life - whatever pathway has been revealed to him by his doctrine of religion. The Mason, in his work, is not concerned with any particular idea that any group of any religion may use to explain his relationship with his Deity. Each member of the Lodge is, or should be, concerned with building. The Mason understands that there can only be one Omnipotent Force which unites men together and puts in their hearts the attributes of good which are so essential to solid foundations and harmonious associations of people. Question No. 1 Who are the persons involved in the relationships between the Church and the Lodge? There are many members of the Church who are also members of the Lodge. There are many members of the Lodge who are also members of the Church. The responsibilities of the Masonic Lodge is to its members. It has a great responsibility to the great Creator, to worship Him and Him alone, that the labor and work of a Mason may be good. Anything the Mason accomplishes is by virtue of the skill which his Creator has bestowed upon him as a craftsman - as a Mason. It is the purpose of the Lodge that its members live in harmony with all mankind. Each member of the Lodge should choose his Church in which to have his relationship with his Deity - that there may be peace within himself. Qestion No. 2 What does the Lodge desire for its members in this life and in the life to come? Because of the limited ability of mankind to understand the nature of the Hereafter and the Creative Power that has placed him in this physical world, the Mason is taught that he is progressing out of darkness into God's marvelous light. This proposition has been codified by St. Paul, the great Christian apostle. Not fully understanding all of these ideas, the Mason alludes to the Hereafter in many ways, such as "the undiscovered

country from whose borne no traveler returns", or "the Celestial Lodge above", or "a state of endless duration". This is a part of the procedure for being brought from darkness to light to have and receive a part of the rights, lights and benefits of this world, and of the Hereafter. The answer is simply to love God and the brotherhood of man, and to labor in the physical life to prepare for the Eternal Life, however the clergyman teaches to do so. Question No. 3 Are members of the Lodge able to become members of the Church? In regard to this question, we must make an assumption that by "Church" we mean God's congregation of people in this physical world who worship Him. The first article of the fundamental laws accepted by the fraternity of Masons, convened in the General Assembly at York in 926 A.D., recognized that the first duty of a Mason is to God. The first of the fifteen points of laws for the government of the Craft, said to be made at the meeting in York, is: "Every Mason should cultivate brotherly love and the love of God and frequent Holy Church. The members of the Lodge are members of God's Holy Church because they believe in God, Conclusion There is no doctrine in Masonry that repentance for sins is unnecessary. restitution for misdeeds is universal.

Regret and

The Mason accepts the various religious doctrines as a part of the truth which the Creator has given to mankind, and to the Craft, as instrumentalities to enable him to proceed through this life, physical and known to him, toward the Life now unknown which the craftsman and all mankind must take on faith. To the extent that any mortal man judges a Mason to be evil in the Lodge, or in the outside world because he is a Mason, he is assuming a power which he does not have. It is our Masonic duty toward the Church, toward the Synagogue, toward the Temple, and also towards the ministers, priests and religious leaders, to live so that they can come to no other rational or spiritual conclusion - except that Masons are laborers in God's world who have promised God to help each other and all mankind in their daily lives through the work which they pursue, their vocations and their human relations. Longfellow's "HIAWATHA" brings us into perspective: "Gitche Manito, the mighty. The creator of the nations, spoke to them with voice majestic

—

'I am weary of your quarrels. Weary of your wars and bloodshed. Weary of your prayers for vengeance. Of your wrangling and dissension. All your strength is in your union. All your danger is in discord. Therefore be at peace henceforward, And as brothers live together.'" The Mason believes the peace and harmony prevailing in the Lodge, and his pursuit of the Light of Truth with his brethren, sets the stage on which he may prepare for the Eternal Life. The Uninformed must be taught by precept and example, not by argument. The Word was made flesh — full of grace and truth. It is for salvation, not damnation! Always has been! Always will be! Respectfully submitted, Kenneth V. Moses, Chairman

SPECIAL REPORT STATE FAIR BOOTH To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas tried something new in 1986. They had a booth at the Kansas State Fair which was a great success. For the nine day fair, it took 192 man-hours to man the booth. Each of the Brethren that helpeql worked three-hour shifts. Some of them worked more than one day. The Lodges that worked the booth were: Hutchinson Lodge #445, Bassett Lodge #124, Reno Lodge #140 and the Hutchinson Hi-Twelve Club. A big thanks to all the Brethren who helped with this project. A register was set up at the booth and 912 Brethren signed it. There were 160 Kansas Lodges represented. Other states having members sign the register were: California, Illinois, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, New York, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Dakota and Texas. The Mason traveling the longest distance, and signing the register was Past Master Worshipful Ken Shirtcliff, a member of Progress Lodge #22, Southbridge, New Zealand. We also had many non-masons stop at the booth and pick up pamphlets. Some asked how they could become a Mason. We did not pass out any petitions. However, we did have a list of the lodges and secretaries which we gave them. I would hope that the Grand Lodge will continue this project - for it is projects like this that will make Masonry grow in Kansas. Respectfully submitted. R:.W:. Larry Eckhoff A.D.G.H., Area X

REPORT OF CHARTERED LODGES AND LODGES U.D. COMMITTEE M:.W:. Robert G. Jackson, PGM, Chairman, presented the following report which on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: A review of the Annual Proceedings over the last twenty-five years reveals many of the same concerns as we find today for the operation of the lodges chartered by the Grand Lodge of Kansas. There are several lodges failing to attend the Annual Comiunication of the Grand Lodge. Many have not attended for two years or more, thus placing their charter in jeopardy of disciplinary action by the Grand Master and the Council of Administration. There continues to be a number of lodges who fail, for one reason or another, to file their annual reports promptly and accurately. In late January of this year, twenty lodges had not filed their annual reports. It became necessary for our Grand Master to take positive action. At this writing, the number has been reduced to three lodges whose credentials may be withheld for attendance at the annual communication. Membership losses and unnecessary lodge consolidations continues to be a major problem to our Grand Lodge. This year we found it advisable to consolidate nine lodges, and others are pending: Dirigo Lodge No. 226 at Haddam, to be consolidated with Narka Lodge No. 349 at Narka, order issued April 1, 1986. Apollo Lodge No. 297 at Ellis, to be consolidated with Hays Lodge No. 195 at Hays, order issued April 1, 1986. Morland Lodge No. 414 at Morland, to be consolidated with Millbrook Lodge No. 281 at Hill City, order issued May 1, 1986.

Friendship Lodge No. 208 at Haven, to be consolidated with Mount Hope Lodge No. 238 at Mount Hope, order issued June 2, 1986. Arcadia Lodge No. 329 at Arcadia, to be consolidated with Mulberry Lodge No. 261 at Mulberry, order issued June 2, 1986. Elkhart Lodge No. 422 at Elkhart, to be consolidated with Hugoton Lodge No. 406 at Hugoton, order issued June 2, 1986. Haven Lodge No. 157 at South Haven, to be consolidated with Sumner Lodge No. 203 at Caldwell, order issued October 31, 1986. Canton Lodge No. 197 at Canton, to be consolidated with McPherson Lodge No. 172 at McPherson, order issued October 31, 1986. Turon Lodge No. 358 at Turon, to be consolidated with Cable Lodge No. 299 at Arlington, order issued October 31, 1986. A study of membership, using five year increments beginning with 1965-1970, showed a slowing of the rate of membership losses per year in the late 1970's. 1980-1985, however, shows an increased loss rate above the years between 1965 and 1975. During the same periods (1980-1985) the rate of lodge consolidation has doubled. It seems there is a continued need for programs to be developed to maintain lodges and formulate recommended action for the effective deliverance of Freemasonry and its principles in the communities of our Grand Jurisdiction. To identify a few, would include programs which will address issues such as membership retention, lodge officer education relative to lodge operation and program planning, and entered apprentice and fellowcraft participation in lodge functions. We recognize there are more than a few lodges of this Grand Jurisdiction who have outstanding lodge operations and programming. To these we say congratulations and keep up the good work. However, it is with an overview of the jurisdiction as a whole that this committee makes the following recommendations: 1. This committee formulate and initiate over the next six months a study of this jurisdiction to determine the status of all lodges working under charters granted by this Grand Lodge, and report be made to the Council of Administration by October 1, 1987. This report to include recommendations for action. 2. During the coming year, all lodges make a concerted effort to participate in the educational, ritualistic and philanthropic programs of the Grand Lodge of Kansas. 3. Lodge officers assure themselves that all necessary reports are filed accurately and promptly with the Grand Secretary as required by law or asked for by the Grand Master. Possibly more than ever before. Brethren, our Grand Lodge needs to show leadership, to develop programs, and to initiate action for the effective deliverance of Freemasonry in Kansas. We encourage your active participation in your Grand Lodge. We express our gratification to M:.W:. Durward C. Danielson for his concerns and untiring efforts toward lodge operation. Further, we thank him for this opportunity to serve Kansas Masonry. Respectfully and Fraternally submitted. Robert G. Jackson, PGM, Chairman Larry L. Algott Arthur A. Hartshorn, Jr. Don E.

REPORT OF THE KANSAS MASONIC HOME ADMINISTRATOR Brother Jerry B. Lindenbaum, Administrator of the Kansas Masonic Home, gave the following report which, on his motion, was accepted. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: In 1896, men and women of vision saw a dream become reality: the beginning of Kansas Masonry's philanthropic endeavor, the Kansas Masonic Home, came into being on September 10, 1896. On September lOth of 1986, we celebrated the Home's 90th Anniversary. The Home has m.ade its way from the humble beginnings inside the mansion of the old Lawrence Estate to the multimillion dollar enterprise that now encompasses its operations. It is a fact of life, while our Home is still dedicated to love and care and follows our Masonic principles guiding our mission throughout, the Home is a business - big business - and those whose care the Home is entrusted to, the Board, the staff and our Craft, must recognize this fact. The Kansas Masonic Home is our Fraternity's most visible symbol of what Kansas Freemasonry is. Without it, our Craft would wither and die faster than it is now. With a strong, vibrant Home however, our Craft can prosper and grow. Our Home and Craft are both on the brink. No organization whether business or fraternal can survive without growth and enthusiasm. Do we have the courage to make the decisions necessary this year to ensure that both survive? Membership in our Craft and the growth and financial stability of our Kansas Masonic Home are the paramount tasks we must face in Kansas Masonry in 1987. We cannot "leave it" to someone else any more. Our membership will drop below 60,000 this year while the Home will lose a substantial amount of money. The correlation of these two facts are inescapably intertwined. The Kansas Masonic Home has recently begun a new planning effort to secure strategies for putting the Home on a sound financial footing. The plan must begin this year. The opportunities to serve and grow presented by the "Greying of America" have never been better and will continue to expand for the next four or five decades. While the Home concentrates on the care of our aging brothers and sisters and citizens of Kansas, our Grand Lodge, lodges and chapters should be concerned with creating an atmosphere to allow our membership to grow and prosper. What will be said about the year 1987 in Kansas Masonic history? Will it be the year we begin to turn it around or will it be the beginning of the end? All Kansas Masons and Stars must work together to insure survival. Our leadership must set the course for the Craft to follow and be successful. Every great enterprise undertaken must have the components of enthusiasm, commitment and perserverance to see it through. Our Craft and our Home are two great enterprises that we must not let suffer the fate of apathy and neglect. Let us make 1987 the year of revival and rededication. As we set our goals, we must set our minds to the commitment of achieving them. just on paper and in words, but in action. Let this be the year of SUCCESS.

Not

Repairs and Replacements Our regular program of repairs and maintenance has been followed this year. Our physical plant continues to deteriorate however. While many repairs were completed this year, we cannot keep up with the demands of our aging buildings. Some items were postponed due to budget priorities. Some items in 1987 will again be postponed due to budget pressures. The roofs around the campus need extensive work. As can be accommodated, these items will be brought to the Board for action. We purchased the following equipment and made repairs during the past fiscal year: Repair pot holes in south drive Major roof repair to Chapel Major Roof Repairs - Administration above Accounting Replace starter & Circuit breaker on chiller water pumps

Activities - Occupational Therapy During the past year, our Activity Department and Occupational Therapy Department merged to combine a new emphasis on patient care. Under the directions of Mrs. Jan Morris, O.T.R., the department is functioning well with the new tasks. Our Activity program is as strong as always and our Occupational Therapy program continues to deliver high quality care to our residents. The combination also saved over $8,000. Health Care Center We received our State l/;icensure and Medicare/Medicaid certification in November again. This year also saw our Health Care Center participate in a research program directed by the University of Kansas and Wesley Medical Center on Alzhiemers Disease. This study is still ongoing. Results won't be known for over another year. The Health Care Center which maintains its teaching programs with WSU, Friends University, Kansas Newman College and St. Mary's of the Plains Nursing School, continues a high level of in-service education for our staff.

Home Health Agency The Kansas Masonic Home Health Agency has completed its fourth full year of operation. More than 3,000 home visits were made this past year to residents of Sedgwick County by the Agency staff. The Home Health Agency continues to be of assistance to residents on campus residing in our independent setting. The nurses and aides assist residents with medications and treatments whenever it is deemed necessary. Providing this service enables the resident to remain in the independent setting for a longer period of time. Our Agency is annually surveyed for compliance with licensure and certification regulations on the Federal and State levels. This is the second year in a row that we did not receive any deficiencies during the survey process. The total staff needs to be commended for this accomplishment. It is very difficult to receive a perfect survey. The Agency has also changed Medicare Intermediaries. In accordance with Federal Regulations, there are ten Medicare Intermediaries serving all fifty States. We are now associated with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Iowa. As the transition has just taken place in December of last year, we are looking forward to working with their staff. We still continue to share our wheelchair van two days a week in the community with our Health Care Center utilizing it three days a week. We are able to assist those individuals that need transportation to see their physician or do out-patient services at the local hospitals that have no other means of transportation. We also have been in contact with local lodges and chapters for those Brothers and Sisters that are reported ill or in the hospital; to see if we can be of service to them through our Home Health Agency. This is working very well and helps utilize our philosophy of being available to assist as we are needed for medical care. We look forward to a new year of pursuing the goals of education to our Brothers and Sisters that we are here to serve them, in their own homes as well as on campus with the same excellence of professionalism, love, care and concern that has been demonstrated for the past 90 years. Respectfully submitted by Bonnie Wyckoff, Administrator of the Kansas Masonic Home Home Health Agency.

Development Office Report

A milestone was achieved in the history of Kansas Masonry during 1986. Our Kansas Masonic Home celebrated its 90th year of continued service to our less fortunate Brothers, their wives, widows, sisters and mothers, the Eastern Star ladies and, of course, the Masonic Home kids. As we travel onward towards the centennial of our Home, it is essential that we implement steps now to insure that there will be a future, not only for our Masonic Home, but for our Fraternity. We must come to grips with the fact that our obligation mandates us to the care of our distressed Brothers. If we; truly believe the teachings of Masonry and are not merely saying words, then we must do everything within our power to insure that help is available to the Brethren that ask for it. The demand for care by those in need will continue to escalate. There is no one out there to do the job for us, we must do it ourselves. This past year proved to be a challenging one; trying to motivate the Craft to action. There is still hope that the hearts of Masons and Eastern Star members will be touched so that they will realize that the Masonic Home cannot continue to exist without their financial support. Several items of note during 1986 are highlighted: Memorial Program - Over the years, one major source of funds for the Masonic Home has been the dollars given in memory of a departed Brother or Sister. To increase these gifts, a Memorial Program placard with envelopes was developed from a similar program in Tennessee. Placards are placed in each lodge and as many funeral homes as possible. Anyone wishing to give a memorial gift simply takes an envelope, fills in the necessary information, and mails it to the Masonic Home. If all the lodges will work at promoting the program within their membership and the funeral homes in their communities, this can be a very special and simple way to help our Brothers and Sisters. It also will serve as a living testament to the loved one that is being remembered. A very big thank you to H:.W:. Robert G. Jackson, PGM, for sharing this idea he discovered while visiting in Tennessee. Estate Planning - Our program to assist families in planning their estates has grown tremendously in 1986. Several Brothers have been working with our estate planner. Brother John Griffin of Stewardship Counseling, Inc. As a result, the Masonic Home will receive the income produced by estates value at nearly $5,000,000. It will be several years before these funds will come in as they will begin paying at the death of the donors. It is good to know that there are those badly needed funds for the future and that a Brother and his family could be helped at the same time. Retirement Center Capital Campaign - The Campaign for funds for the new building project proved to be quite successful in those lodges that worked the plan. What is needed now is for more lodges to become involved and help get a campaign started within their lodge. The need for a new retirement center can be shown in many ways. The facilities are old and need replacing being the main concern. Most importantly, however, is the fact that so many Brothers are desiring to live at the Masonic Home, but they go elsewhere because of inadequate accomnodations. Your help is needed now!

Thank You to A Special Company - Not often would mention of any vendor that the Home uses be made in this report. But the contributions of one such company and its owners are so significant that it had to be noted. That company is LIST PLUS of Augusta, Kansas, and its owners, Dan Idgjer and Thelma Walter. These two kind people have been very generous in giving of their time and talents to help promote the Masonic Home. They provide the direct mail service that produces the mailings which go to all Kansas Masons. This is a service that normally would cost a lot to produce, but these good folks provide it to the Home at their cost. This has saved countless thousands of dollars over the years. To top that off, they have donated a computer and the necessary programing and a photocopier to the Development Office. This amounts to a gift of nearly $30,000. Why would two people not associated with Masonry do what they've done - to paraphrase their feelings, it is because they believe in what the Kansas Masonic Home stands for and for the good work we do with those who need help. They are to be highly commended for their efforts. Donations During 1986 ($100 and over) Aaron, L. H. Adamek, William Adams, Harold D. Adams, Mr. & Mrs. James R., Jr. Aksamit, Mr. & Mrs. F. R.

If we are to have a future in this Fraternity, then we must become pioneers ourselves. New and innovative methods to gain new members must be adopted in order to grow and prosper. However, no new method will work unless we are willing to adapt to the changes and make things happen. I want to spend a few minutes to discuss some other important pioneers who made their mark on Masonry over 90 years ago. These were the men^and women of Masonry and Eastern Star whose vision of a place for our older Brothers and Sisters to live their lives in comfort and dignity was the cornerstone of the founding of our Kansas Masonic Home. It was this spirit that saw the rise of homes for the elderly and children spring up all over this country. It was Masonry that taught the world how to care for those we lovingly call senior citizens. There are several of these good Brothers and Sisters who are or have been the beneficiaries of their own forsight and planning. If we are to understand the extent of the future needs of our older Kansans, we must consider some very key facts. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Two out of every ten Kansans are age 60 or over, a total of 412,296 citizens. Kansas ranks 9th nationally in the proportion of elderly to the total population. 58.4% of all Kansans age 60 and over are women. 140 women exist for every 100 men in the age 60 population. 34% of the 60+ population had incomes below $4,000. Based on calendar year 1979 income, the U.S. Bureau of the Census poverty thresholds were: $3,683 ($306.92 per mo.) for 1 person. $4,700 ($391.67 per mo.) for 2 persons.

These facts were taken from the U.S. Bureau of Census statistical information and was provided through the courtesy of the Sedgwick County Department of Aging. We again have been given a second chance to become pioneers once more. Like the Phoenix rising from the flames. Masonry can once more become the leader in providing quality retirement facilities and services to our own older members. Then, and only then, can we truly look at ourselves in the mirror and say that we have done everything we could. Only then can we look up with pride and say to the world ... This is Masonry, we care.

KANSAS MASONIC HOME - DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT Brother Timothy Haddad, Director of Development for the Kansas Masonic Home, gave the following remarks to Grand Lodge. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: When a people talk of pioneers, they generally think of the early settlers of America. Traveling onward by wagon, on horseback and^ohfoot, opening the way for a growing country to expand and prosper. Webster says that a pioneer is "one who goes before, preparing the way for others". By that definition, we perhaps would not usually associate pioneers and Masonry. If we haven't, then we should; for to gain a look at our future, then our past must be looked at to learn from our mistakes and progress by those things we have done well. Had it not been for that pioneering spirit. Masonry may have never made it to the plains of Kansas one-hundred-thirty-one years ago. It was men of true vision over these many years that has made it possible for us to be here in Salina today.

REPORT OF GRAND LODGE ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE R:.W:. Clifford D. Knauss, DGM, Chairman, presented the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: Your Grand Lodge Activities Committee for 1986-1987 again sponsored the Kansas All Masonic Retreat at the Kansas 4-H Foundation in Rock Springs Ranch on August 30, 31 and September 1st, the Labor Day Weekend. This was the ninth annual weekend that Kansas Masons, their families and friends gathered at the beautiful Rock Springs Ranch, located just south of Junction City, to participate in activities ranging from just plain rest and relaxation to more strenuous excercises such as hiking, horseback riding, horseshoe pitching, and several evenings

of square dancing, to enjoying just the friendship and conversation of those who have attended previously as well as some new-comers attending for the first time. It was generally agreed by those in attendance that the weather was probably the best yet experienced, and the food quality and menu was exceptionally good. Although a little cool for swimming, no one really minded. Our attendance totalled 66, about average for the last several years, and everyone agreed that it is disappointing that more families don't take advantage of this great opportunity. Next year, over Labor Day 1987, the Activities Conmittee is planning for the tenth year reunion. Special plans are being made, and it is hoped that we will see a good turnout. On behalf of the conmittee, I express our appreciation for the opportunity to serve the Grand Jurisdiction of Kansas. Respectfully submitted. Clifford D. Knauss, DGM, Chairman Clifford L. Trax C. M.

REPORT OF FINANCE COMMITTEE W:. Merle D. Bradley, Chairman, presented the Finance Committee Report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: In accordance with By-law 2-118 of the Constitution and By-laws of the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas, your Finance Committee has engaged the accounting firm of Farmis to officially audit the books and make the necessary inspection of investments and properties. Their report appears elsewhere in these proceedings and is an addendum to this report. The committee has reviewed monthly the income and expenses of this M:.W:. Grand Lodge and have found them to be in accordance with our laws. The Budget also appears elsewhere in these proceedings and has the approval of this committee. We charge the Grand Lodge to make every effort to operate within its limits. On September 8, 1986, this coimiittee was contacted by the Grand Secretary to make an inspection of the water problem in the basement of the Grand Lodge Building. After examining the foundation, it was concluded that indeed it was necessary for the repairs to be made. The estimated cost at the time was $37,000. Negotiations are also underway to purchase an IBM Computer to replace the old Addressograph and other related equipment. (IBM-AT-339 with Pro-printer/XL) We would like to include in this report that it has been a good year. The Council of •Administration, the Grand Master, the Grand Secretary and the Grand Treasurer have done a fine job of managing our affairs financially and managing our property; and they are deserving of our thanks and sincere appreciation.

REPORT OF TOTAL YOUTH COMMITTEE W:. Jerry K. VanAllen, Chairman, gave the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: In that there were no special orders from the Grand East as to the specifics of this Committee's duties, each member has in their own way contributed to our three Youth Organizations (DeMolay, Jobs Daughters and Rainbow for Girls). It is our hope that the Kansas Masons will, each year, continually become more aware of these young men and women and what they are doing in our communities. Youth is a precious commodity - as each of us becomes painfully aware of as we ourselves grow older. Our three youth groups are our life-line and future. We should be continuously concerned with their future, for it is there that we are headed. No one can change this or the fact that the youth of today are the leaders of tomorrow. Let us remember the teachings of Proverb 22:6, "Train up a child in the way he should go; and when he is old, he will not depart from it". The Masons of Kansas have contributed to each of these fine organizations monetary gifts - gifts which have been greatly appreciated on the part of all three organizations. The Total Youth Committee recommends the amount of support to these fine groups be increased from the present $1,000 to DeMolays and $500 each to the Order of Rainbows and Jobs Daughters. If each Mason in Kansas was to donate 10(t (less than our morning coffee) to our future (our youth), we would be able to support our young people to the tune of $6,000.00 per year. Think about this, then tell us that you would not reach into your pocket and give a DeMolay, Jobs or Rainbow lOi if they were to identify themselves as such and ask you for a contribution on the street. This committee would like to take this opportunity to congratulate the leaders, officers and sponsors of our three youth groups. These young ladies and men who have provided leadership in their local organizations and those who have risen to leadership roles in district, state and national as well as international positions deserve and receive our congratulations and respect. A new concept for youth involvement in the past few years was the organization of the All-State Masonic Band. We congratulate the Kansas Masonic Foundation for their hard work on this project. It has been a good shot-in-the-arm for Masonry in Kansas in the eyes of our youth, and we encourage the Foundation and local Lodges' continued support in this fine undertaking. We urge each Kansas Mason to learn about and support the Youth Organizations in their communities. We ask you to take a few evenings out of your busy schedules to visit their meetings and social functions to show them we care about them and their betterment. Masons of Kansas need to let them know we are proud to have such fine young people representing us^. The Total Youth Conmittee would like to take this opportunity to thank the Grand Master for allowing us to serve in this capacity. Fraternally submitted, Jerry K. VanAllen, Chairman Lyle E. Spain Larry F. Holder Gary Weller S. Mack Finley

GREETINGS FROM COLORADO M:.W:. Norman Hoff, Grand Master of Colorado, thanked the Grand Lodge for the warm reception given to all the visitors who are attending this Annual Communication, and brought greetings from the more than 29,000 Masons of Colorado.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT H:.W:. Durward C. Danielson noted that M:.W:. Ben W. Graybill, PGM, was not present at this Annual Communication due to the illness of his wife. Pearl. This is the first Grand Lodge M:.W:. Graybill has missed in 36 years. PRESENTATION M:.W:. Bevin Bump, Past Grand Master of Nebraska, expressed his pleasure at being present at this Annual Communication and thanked the Grand Lodge for the many courtesies extended to he and his wife during their visit. He then made two presentations to M:.W:. Durward C. Danielson - a large T-Shirt to be worn and enjoyed as a Past Grand Master; and a Certificate commissioning him as an Admiral in the Great Navy of the State of Nebraska, duly signed by the Governor of Nebraska.

REPORT OF JURISPRUDENCE COMMITTEE M:.W:. Arthur C. Hodgson, PGM, Chairman, presented the following report. Certain items in this report were acted upon individually; and then at the conclusion, the report was adopted as a whole. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: The work of our Committee for the current year has been conducted by correspondence and long-distance telephone calls. There has been no meeting of the committee as a committee until this Comnunication of Grand Lodge. We have enjoyed the opportunity to be of service to Masonry and to our Grand Master Special Dispensations The Special Dispensations granted by our Grand Master have been reviewed and are found to be within the powers and prerogatives of our Grand Master. We recommend that they be approved. (Seconded and approved.) Rulings Our Grand Master has listed separate rulings made by him. It seems to the Committee on Jurisprudence that these rulings should be approved. (Moved, seconded, approved.) Grand Master's Recommendation Number 1 Our Grand Master has proposed a By-law 2-301 having to do with Grand Lodge per-capita tax and special assessment be amended. Being aware of the needs of the Kansas Masonic Home and of Grand Lodge and further being aware of the decreasing membership, the committee reconmends the adoption of this recommendation. (Seconded and defeated.) Grand Master's Recommendation Number 2 Our Grand Master has recommended a continuation of the $3.00 per member special assessment for the year 1987 to be paid on or before January 10th, 1988. This appears to be an interim matter to be in effect only through the 1987 calendar year. We recoimiend that this amendment be approved. Following a question and answer period and pro and con discussion, the motion was put to a vote and carried. Grand Master's Recommendation Number 3 Our Grand Master has made a recommendation relating to what has been known as "raising fees". Our Grand Master's proposal would make this an "initiatory fee", and would be due from each candidate initiated. This appears to us to be the same concept except applying it to the initiation rather than the conferral of the Third Degree would determine that each petitioner would pay the fee and not be dependent upon his advancement.

The recommendation seems reasonable and we recommend its adoption.

(Approved.)

Conclusion As another Grand Lodge Year winds down, we have an appreciation for the feelings of our Grand Master. We conmend him for the energy and intelligence that he has exhibited in conducting the affairs of Grand Lodge during his year. As he concludes his year of service, we wish for him good health, good spirits and a continuation of his dedication for the good of the Craft. Respectfully submitted,

Arthur C. Hodgson, PGM, Chairman F. Warren Starns, PGM William E. Bradford, PGM Ben 8. Boyles, PGM Robert L. Davis

RECEPTION W:. Brian L. Curtis, Master of Halstead Lodge No. 46, announced that a Reception honoring Grand Master Clifford D. Knauss will be held on Saturday, April 11, 1987. at the Lodge in Halstead, Kansas, with a dinner following at the high school.

INTRODUCTIONS M:.W:. Clifford D. Knauss introduced his wife, Dixie, and members of his immediate family; then the Grand Lodge Officers and their ladies; thereafter he gave the following address. GRAND MASTER'S ADDRESS My Fellow Grand Officers, Brothers, Sisters, Family and Friends, Masonry has always held an important place in my adult life and I never, in my wildest dreams, thought that I would some day be Grand Master of the great jurisdiction of Kansas. I accept this honor with much pride, but also with a great amount of humility, realizing the trust and confidence you have placed in me. I promise that with the help of God, my family and fellow Masons, I will enthusiastically lead our membership on a course of revitalization and growth to, hopefully, a more secure future for the fraternity that we all love so much. During the next twelve months I will concentrate my efforts primarily on the three R's of membership: Recruitment, Retention and Reinstatement. Contrary to the belief of some of our members, I am convinced that membership, its growth and prosperity, is the all important lifeblood of our fraternity; and we cannot leave it any longer to chance that the recent decline of membership will, in due time, reverse itself - and our fraternity grow again to the proportions it did shortly after World War II. We must act now in a positive manner to replenish our ranks with young and devoted members with new ideas that will carry our fraternity to brighter and greater heights in the years to come. My Masonic Father, M:.W:. Richard A. Porter, PGM, gave to the brothers of this great state an important tool to use in the advancement of our Brother Masons through the degrees. Those that have seen fit to use it, have found it workable and of great help in seeing that all candidates for the Degrees of Masonry complete their work within a reasonable time frame. Many that have been brought into our fraternity under the shortened proficiency have gone on to be officers as well as Masters of their Lodges, and have attained various levels of proficiency, including several with unlimited cards. I believe this confirms that those with a desire will, in the end, continue to learn and grow in our ritual. This year it is my desire that you receive another tool to be used in the building of our fraternity. I refer to it as "Selective Invitation". The ancient traditions of Free Masonry do permit you to influence your qualified sons, friends and co-workers to petition for the degrees. There is absolutely no objection to a neutrally-worded approach being made to a man who is considered a suitable candidate for Freemasonry. 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. For years we have been led to believe that it is against Masonic Law to approach anyone with an invitation to join our craft. It has been stated that it is against the landmarks of Freemasonry. However, there is nothing in the Laws of Masonry as adopted by the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Kansas that prohibits this. Nor do I find it listed in the Landmarks of Masonry, as recognized in Kansas, that a man cannot be invited. Only that every candidate for initiation must be a man, free-born and of lawful age. Some cite the fact that if a man has been invited and he responds in the affirmative to the questions in the ritual, he would be lying when he answers the question, "Is it of your own free will and accord?" I.say this is not so. I believe many, many men have received an invitation and came of their own free-will and accord. I believe that it has been a sad and damaging imposition on our great fraternity that so many men have been denied the lessons and privileges of our fraternity because of this widely misunderstood law of Masonry.

The Mother Grand Lodge of England started issuing invitations a number of years ago. Since then, and particularly during the past several years, more and more Masonic Jurisdictions in the United States have adopted programs of invitation. Now we, as Kansas Masons, are taking this all important step. I am ruling this year, and hope to make it understood and widely recognized in the State of Kansas, that selective invitation is acceptable and not a violation of our Masonic Law. In addition, I am appointing a special committee on membership to examine the three R's of membership - Recruitment, Retention, and Reinstatement - from every aspect to determine what we as Masons in Kansas should be doing to attract not only new members, but also what we should be doing to create new enthusiasm and give greater meaning to those members we already have. We are not living in the same world we were thirty years ago, and we cannot leave it to chance that everything will turn out well in the future for our fraternity. Our society has changed, our priorities are changing, our interests are changing, and it is my firm belief that we must begin to change our fraternity to better fit the world in which we live today. My second task, which I feel is equally important to the Masons in this state, is to rebuild the confidence and pride in our Kansas Masonic Home. There are some that believe this fine Masonic tradition has outlived its usefulness. This could not be further from the truth. There is a greater need today than ever before for a home for the aged, and I can guarantee you that in the years to come, the need for housing for the aged will become a crisis situation because of the lack of facilities to adequately care for the millions that will have a need. We, of Kansas, have a ninety-year tradition of furnishing the finest quality care for our aging brothers, sisters, wives and widows. Our Health Care Center is one of the finest, and its 120 beds have been full since its completion and dedication in 1980. Our self-care residential section, however, needs remodeling and upgrading to bring it into compliance with local, state and federal laws. But through unfortunate misunderstandings, the support of the craft has been placed in jeopardy. I will endeavor, during my term, to explain and eliminate these misconceptions. We will put our home in a more fiscally responsible mode of operation. With the cooperation of our administration, we have already adopted a budget for 1987 that is approximately 10% below that of 1986. We are restating our mission statement and our goals. We will be re-organizing the Board of Directors to give it more continuity, eliminating the uncertainties caused each year by the change of Grand Lodge administration and the board presidency. We will be re-evaluating our policies of admission and extend charity only to the limits of our financial ability, without further invasion of our limited investment portfolio. After all is said and done, we can give charity only to the limit of our funds and that depends entirely on the generosity of what you, the membership, give each year. The Kansas Masonic Home, my Brothers, is the greatest and most evident presence of Freemasonry at work in this great state, and I call on each and everyone of you to join with me, the Board of Directors and the Administration to rebuild our Masonic Home to its rightful place of respect and recognition for the years to come. My friends, what I have told you here today, along with other important undertakings in my administration, will be carried to every member in the State of Kansas by many and various means, including personal communications from your Grand Master to every member of our craft. I pray for your help and support. Brothers and friends, the Masonic Fraternity is the greatest fraternal order the world has ever known. History tells us this from the past, statistics tell us that this is so at the present, and it is our obligation to see that it remains the greatest in the future for our sons, grandsons, and all those others yet to come. Let's be Builders of our fraternity and let Kansas know the greatness of Freemasonry. Thank you.

aCDEESSQf IHÂŁ GRAND MASTER To: The M:.W:. Grand Lodge of Kansas: Welcome, my Brethren, to this One Hundred and Thirty-Second Annual Communication of the Host Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas. It seems such a short time ago that I was elevated to this highest office in Kansas Masonry by the will of this Grand Lodge and afforded the opportunity of leading our Fraternity for this relatively short period of time. It has been one of the greatest experiences of my life and I am duly grateful for your encouragement and support for my efforts and programs during the past twelve months. It goes without saying that each Grand Master begins his year with enthusiastic plans to do what he can in the management of this Fraternity and attempt to make those changes he deems advisable or necessary. I am no different than most and as I stood before you twelve months ago I outlined in some detail these things that I was going to attempt to do. In some of these endeavors I have been successful, in others I have fallen short, but at least I feel comfortable that I have done my best to address those things which seem to be the most important. As you know, I consider membership as one of our greatest concerns. This is not new as it has been the concern of most of my predecessors, but I believe we have given you one of the best tools to address the membership problem that you could be given with the "Selective Invitation Program." Membership should be the concern of each and every member of the Fraternity as the responsibility cannot be delegated to only the Grand Master or the Grand Lodge Officers, or even to the officers of your own individual lodge, but it must be the responsibility of each and every one of you as an individual to fill that obligation to present at least one petition during your lifetime to replace you when you are gone. If we are to see the Fraternity grow in the future then you must present two or more petitions during your lifetime. By fulfilling this obligation, we can make the difference and turn our membership loss into a gain. It is my firm belief that the true results of our Selective Invitation Program will not be obvious for several years,. We have many inhibitions to overcome. We have many attitudes to change and probably the largest obstacle of all is to overcome the generation gap that has been created through the social changes during the past thirty years. My Brothers, you are going to have to forget the past in regard to solicitation and get to work. Talk about Masonry. Be proud you are a Mason and find those that may have an interest. It should be obvious by now they are not going to come to you! I had promised a recommendation for a Life Membership Plan. This I will not do for several good reasons. Probably the most important is that the current dues structure, in too many lodges, does not meet present needs. So a plan based on multiples of their present dues would soon find them short.. The other problem is that our state is in the middle of "re-assessment and re-classification" and all indications are we will very likely see a large increase of property tax. I believe it is in the Fraternities best interest to wait until this program is complete and we know the results. I talked about re-districting. This requires only action of the Council of Administration. By the time the study started and I got the first report we were already past the six month point when, by law, we are required to have the new District Deputy Grand Masters appointed. So, my recommendation will be submitted for consideration this year to implement next year if they so desire. However, consolidations are making this process most difficult. Prior to writing this address, I read through many of the proceedings of the last twenty years to refresh my mind as to just what other Grand Masters have said about the condition of our craft. One in particular describes it well. I refer you to the proceedings of 1985 wherein M:. W:. Lawrence D. Winegardner clearly stated on page 17 three things he saw wrong with US. "First...there are so many of us who cannot get beyond our own needs as we perceive them and reach out to others. We spend time complaining about what Masonry is or isn't doing than we spend reaching out with a helping hand to our brethren. Second...too many of us have no vision of what Masonry IS, and what Masonry should DO to fulfill our destiny. To be a real Mason is to be dedicated to a vision that has as its basis Faith, Hope and Charity. Third...far too many of us have no real dedication to Masonry. ing time, so to speak, until something better comes along."

We seem to be

These words are as true today as they were then. Unless WE get to work WE are going to see our Fraternity slip away until it is only a memory. COUNCIL OF ADMINISTRATION Our Council of Administration this year has been a close working group consisting of R:.W:. Claude W. Norris, R:.W:. Robert M. Nease, and R:.W:. Don E. Robinet. These brothers entered into this year with the pledge of support, cooperation and a sharing of information and future plans to enhance the continuity of our Grand Lodge programs. Our meetings have been productive and harmonious and the interest and dedication of the fine Brothers leads me to believe that our Grand Lodge will be in good hands in the Immediate future. I thank them for their help. APPOINTIVE OFFICERS Each year the incoming Grand Master has the privilege, and duty to select those appointive officers from across the state that he feels will represent and support his programs and will contribute to the operation and participate in the various ceremonies required by the Grand Lodge. The appointive officers this year represent all areas of the state and have proven their dedication and loyalty in everything they have done. Your support has been very much appreciated and I extend my sincere thanks to each and everyone of you. GRAND REPRESENTATIVES I have had a great deal of pleasure this year in being able to make the recommendations for appointments as Grand Representatives from the Grand Kansas to other Grand Jurisdictions.

PAST GRAND MASTERS The Past Grand Masters are, indeed, a very special group of dedicated Masons. Only by having followed in their footsteps can a man know the contribution they have made to our beloved Fraternity. My admiration and respect for this group of men has been greatly magnified by my experience this year as Grand Master. I have been and will always be indebted for their support, encouragement, and guidance. I wish to thank them for their help and support during the year and assure them that it will be a great honor to join their ranks. GRAND LODGE STAFF To have the support of the Grand Lodge Staff gives a great deal of security to a Grand Master and I feel their support is most necessary. The support, loyalty and experience of Al Arnold, Grand Secretary, has been most helpful and one would have to go a long way to ever find a more devoted Mason. Brother Al has always been one of the first to give me encouragement and when asked, the help of his experience In the many years he has served our Grand Lodge in this capacity. To Al I can only say, thank you for all of the help you have given me and I will always consider you not only a very competent Grand Secretary but also a close personal friend. To Hal Horton, Assistant Grand Secretary, I have appreciated your support and willingness to dig in and get the job done wherever necessary. To Jean Rader, a most efficient secretary, it has been a pleasure working with you. To the other people in the Grand Lodge office, Rachael Gilbert, and Mary Rebekah Wasson, you have all been very helpful to me throughout the year and we appreciate your efforts. HALSTEAD LODGE NO. 46, HALSTEAD To my good Brothers In Halstead Lodge No. 46, I wish to extend my sincere thanks for the help and support you have given me this year. Although I have tried to attend lodge when possible, my schedule did not allow many visits. However, when I did attend I was always properly received and accorded the utmost honor and respect. One of the proudest moments of my life was when I was elected and installed Master of Halstead Lodge No. 46 and it was through this privilege to serve that helped me in my Masonic career.

My reception was very much appreciated. Everyone that participated should be proud of the event. It was great. Dixie and I can only say, "Thank you so very much, each and everyone." To all my Lodge Brothers, thank you for my 'Top Hat.' I have always worn it proudly. :_ Although I have appreciated the support of all of my Brothers, there are several I would like to give a special mention. Our Master in 1987, W:. Brian Curtis. Our secretary W:. John A. Schowalter who has served as chairman of my Public School Committee. My good brother and friend, W:. Lewis J. Cain, who has served me well as Grand Junior Steward and W:. James M. Hefling, a member of the Temple Building and Remodeling Committee and constant traveling companion. Thank you. OTHER GRAND JURISDICTIONS A very pleasant opportunity a Grand Master has during his year is the privilege to visit other Grand Jurisdictions. This I did as often as possible and enjoyed each and every one of them and in particular the variations in form and ceremony displayed. The fellowship with each and every Grand Master and Grand Lodge Officer was a delight and my wife, Dixie, and I were always received in the warmest way and extended all courtesies possible. Our most sincere thanks to the Grand Lodges of New Jersy, Oklahoma, Missouri, Texas, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Iowa and Nebraska. The hospitality was outstanding. GRAND LECTURERS To the Grand Lecturers, I extend my most sincere thanks and appreciation for the consistant and devoted service you give to our great Fraternity. I have always admired the proficient manner in which the ritualistic work of our Fraternity is carried out. The support you have given my programs this year has been appreciated and I urge all to keep up the good work. COMMITTEEMEN The various committees of Grand; Lodge this year I believe have functioned well. I am indebted to those who have worked to see that their committees were functioning properly and working in the best interests of Freemasonry. Your support of my programs has been ourstanding and I am most appreciative. KANSAS LODGE OF RESEARCH The officers and members of this relatively new organization are to be commended for their efforts, especially this past year, for promoting and expanding the scope of its work. It has not been an easy job to adjust to the hardships under which they labor and we wish them continued success in future years. At the meeting of the Kansas Lodge of Research on Friday, March 19, 1987, the following were elected and installed: Worshipful Master Senior Warden Junior Warden Treasurer Secretary

The warm welcome and courtesies extended by each of these bodies was greatly appriciated by my wife, Dixie, as well as myself. I wish to extend a special thanks to the Potentates of the five Kansas Shrine Temples for their support this year. Again, Dixie and I would thank you for the ' opportunity to attend the Imperial Shrine of North America in Las Vegas. It was a pleasant and informative meeting, although "hot" in more ways than one. Your support of my selective invitation program has been great. YOUTH GROUPS To those fine young men of DeMolay and the beautiful young ladies of Job's Daughters and Rainbow for Girls, thank you. Your enthusiasm is so very much appreciated and we wish you all the very best in the future. We sincerely hope that your involvement in your particular organization will convince you of the importance and pleasure received from Freemasonry and the Order of Eastern Star. Always keep in mind that it is your interest and enthusiasm that keeps the organizations going and it is ymj who are best suited to interest and encourage new members. Keep up the fine work.

KANSAS MASONIC FOUNDATION It has been a great pleasure to work this year with Jim Claussen, Executive Director, the Foundation President, Don Horttor, and Vivian Wild, Secretary, of this very worthwhile organization. Of course, it has been equally a pleasure to work with each and every member of the Board of Directors and Board of Trustees during the past several years. Our principle fund raising this year was the Christmas card mailing. It was new and proved very successful. It certainly shows the support of our craft for this much needed service, the Oncology Center at the KU Med Center. ADGM and DDGM My most sincere appreciation, without exception, to each and everyone of you for a job well done. As I have traveled throughout the state this year I have always been pleased with the fine attendance of my Area Deputies and District Deputy Grand Masters at the meetings and other activities. I know you will continue to work for and support our Fraternity and it has been my pleasure to get to know you. Again, my sincerest appreciation for what you have done this year. SPECIAL MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE Under the chairmanship of M:. Jerry Cole of Wichita, the specially appointed membership committee worked long and hard. I want to take this opportunity to thank the other members: Brothers Frank Seufert, Wamego; Thomas Burrows, Liberal; Jack Brown, lola; James Withers, Sharon Springs; Buck Aldrich, Leavenworth; and Richard Overton, Merriam, for their Labors. This committee has put together many ideas which they feel would help our Fraternity become more up-to-date and interesting not only for new prospective members but for those members we already have. My greatest concern for Freemasonry today is the loss of membership. I assure you not all of the committee's ideas or recommendations have been presented this year as we all agreed the number of changes possible would be overwhelming and probably difficult to implement at one Grand Lodge Session. It is my recommendation that this committee become a standing committee and continue its charge "to formulate and plan for the improvement and growth of membership in our jurisdiciton and make the necessary recommendations for implementation." You men have done a great job and you deserve the thanks and support of the craft. THE KANSAS MASON So often we take things for granted. However, we should never "take it for granted" that we could possible do without this publication or, on the other hand, that it will always be there. It takes money and people to produce. We owe a great deal for its success to our editor. Brother Floyd E. (Gene) Ramsey. He is doing a fine job, but the Kansas Mason's contents depend largely on you and what information you supply for print. The costs continue to climb and it is long overdue that we accept advertising to help defray the costs. Your continues support in needed now more than ever before. NECROLOGY During the past year, 1621 of our brethren were called to "that house not made by hands eternal in the heavens." They were good men and they will be missed. Their number included three of our Past Grand Masters; M:.W:. Richard A. Porter, M:.W:. Ben W. Graybill and M:.W:. Durward C. Danielson. Our sympathy is most certainly extended to all of the families and each of us share in the this loss. We will join together later in the program with M:.W:. Carroll C. Arnett, PGM, Chairman of our Necrology Committee, for a fitting tribute to our departed Brothers. SERVICE RECOGNITION One of the privileges I enjoyed this year has been the recognition of those good brothers that have served the Fraternity for 50 years or more. We presented 50 year emblems and 60 year certificates. Several 75 year awards were made and we extend our best wishes to all those we were not able to honor personally. The Grand Lodge of Kansas prays that your health and life may be preserved so that you may continue spreading the beauties of Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth. MASONIC SERVICE ASSOCIATION I would like to recognize the many devoted brothers that spend so many hours working in behalf of our Masonic Service Association by visiting our brothers in our three

Kansas VA Hospitals. Special thanks go to Alvin K. Banman, Home Lodge No. 89 Centralia, KS, Wichita VA Medical Center; Charles H. Duckworth, Hiram Lodge No. 68, Leavenworth, KS, Leavenworth VA Hospital; Floyd A. (Red) Trahoon, Orient Lodge No. 51, Topeka, KS, Colmery - O'Neil VA Medical Center. Your concern for your fellow man is very much appreciated. Thanks too, to all that assist in this fine program. KANSAS MASONIC HOME Our Kansas Masonic Home has received a great deal of my time and attention this year. Perhaps more than my "Selective Invitation Program", but it needed that attention. You will recall I made some promises last March in regard to our home and I have done my best with the help of our staff and the members of the Board of Directors to fulfill those promises. They were as follows: 1.

Redefine our Mission Statement and Goals. This is our Mission: The Kansas Masonic Home represents Kansas Masonry's finest traditons and philosophies. Our Home's leadership in providing excellent care is a source of continuing pride for every Mason and Eastern Star. Our Mission is to provide loving care, comfortable and safe environments for people desiring health and retirement services, addressing with dignity the health, social and spiritual needs of those whom we serve. Our short term and long term goals have been and are continuing to be redefined.

2.

Encourage Lodge and District Support: At practically every meeting I have held this year I have attempted to explain what our past history has been and why we find ourselves in the position we are today. So many of our members do not understand the problems. I only wish I could have the opportunity to personally explain on a "one to one" basis, but this is impossible. I do feel we have gained much support this year and this can be confirmed by the increased number of new contributors in our files.

3.

Re-think Capital Improvement Plans: As you know, I did announce that we were "downsizing" our plan to include only the renovation of the West Side Residence Building. I sincerely believe we can handle a project of this nature with the support of the craft. You will recall this building was,virtually closed this past October because of deteriorating condition and safety consideration.

4.

Room and service rates have been adjusted and we continue to improve the ratio of private pay residents and monitor our charity to better fit those monies received from you, the craft. We have also endeavored to increase services through the Home Health Agency to the residents of Sedgwick County through the S.R.S. On the other hand we have reduced staff and made considerable changes in our operations to cut costs. These have all had a positive effect on our budget.

5.

Reorganize the Board of Directors: This was completed legally in January 1988 with the filing of our amended Articles of Incorporation with the office of the Secretary of State. In the future there will be a Board of Trustees consisting of Twenty-four (24) persons, eighteen from our Fraternity and six from the Order of Eastern Star. They in turn will elect from their members the Board of Directors. The new Board will be in place in May.

6.

Balance the Budget: This year we have reduced the net operating loss from an approximate 5663,000 loss in 1986 to a loss of approximately $173,000 in 1987. A loss rphnrtinn of $490,000. We are moving in the right direction and we project a positive figure for 1988 of approximately $2000,00. In addition to the above, through the efforts and under the direction of M:.W:. Ralph D. Walker, PGM, Chairman of the Investments Committee of our Board, the Industrial Revenue Bonds for the Health Center were refinanced. The effect will save the home considerable each year in debt service, relieving our cash flow requirements and has a present saving to the year 2005 of over $200,000. The reason is, of course, lower interest rates.

It is my firm belief that w e are now moving in the right direction to become once again an institution serving the needs of a special segment of our fraternity. "Those that reach that point of life where they need help and have no one else to turn to." However, your help and support continues to be needed in this great Masonic Charity. As I am sure everyone knows, or at least should know, the Kansas Masonic Home has had a special place in my heart since Dixie and I became involved over ten years ago. It had been somewhat of a challenge to me this year in attempting to make some changes. Some of the change has been good and some not so good and the closing of the westside residential section was most difficult for me as well as all others who are involved, but most especially the residenta. To Jerry Lindenbaum and his staff, I say thank you for a job well done. Yours has been a labor of love. It could not be otherwise when you get to know the residents of our home. We sincerely wish you continued success and I pledge my continued efforts on behalf of the home and its residents. The men of Kansas Masonry and members of the Order of Eastern Star should all be proud of our Masonic Home and it is my sincere prayer that they will continue to afford it their spiritual and financial support in the years to come. RECOMMENDATIONS Communication is the "life line" of our Fraternity and I believe the Kansas Mason is an important conduit of information to all of our Brothers. The cost of publishing and mailing this magazine continues to escalate and it is time we find additional financial support through paid advertising. My first and second recommendations, if approved, will make that possible. My other recommendations I consider necessary for the good of our Fraternity. We must continue providing service through our Grand Lodge and if we cannot support those charities that are the framework of our charitable endeavors we will have lost our purpose for existence. Unfortunately both require money. Rprnmmpndatinn Nn. 1 ARTICLE III.

Explanation: It was necessary this year to close the West Side Residential Building (built 1929-30) because it does not meet certain safety codes and other regulations and the building needs a complete redesign and restructuring of the rooms to include private bathrooms. It was built with common restroons located in each wing of the building. Due to size of rooms, no private rest rooms, and deteriorating conditions, the facility was only forty per cent occupied. Addtionally, we could not charge full rate for the rooms because of conditions, but because of segregated facilities it was necessary to employ full staff. This assessment will allow for complete renovation over a five year period with the membership as a whole participating. On completion of work it will be paid for. Recommendation No. 5. By-law 2-314 - GRAND MASTER'S CONTINGENCY FUND At each Annual Communication the Grand Lodge shall set apart and appropriate a contingent fund for the Grand Master. Such Fund shall be used by him in defraying expenses incurred in the discharge of his duties. Thp amnnnt. tn be budgeted bv the Finance Committee and approved at the discretion of the rniinril of Arimin'itratinn. Comment:

Housekeeping: This fund has been at $8,000 for the past several years. But, this by-law needs to reflex flexibility. A Grand Master living in the far reaches of the state would need more, but, at the same time one more centrally located would not need as much.

Recommendation No. 6. By-law 4-305 LODGE DUES - changed to read: A Lodge may provide revenue for its support by requiring each member Entered Apprentice. Fellow Craft and Master Mason tn pay annually a specified tax to be fixed by its by-laws, and, at any Stated Communication, by a majority vote of the members present, it may assess an additional tax for current expenses or for charity, or both which shall be held to be a special tax for emergent purposes. Otherrecommenations that I support are those of the Membership Committee, No. 1 through No. 4 and that recommendation by W:. James R. Watkins concerning an increase in our Per capita Tax. However, distribution as provided in my recommendation No. 3. RULINGS 1.

During this year I granted several Waivers of Jurisdiction allowing Kansas to petition lodges across the border because of work location or relatives. I feel important question is the they become Masons.

2.

The funding of our Mobile Lodge was questioned. Although not a ruling, as such, it was determined that all monies received were from private donations.

3.

A lodge interpertation of by-law 3-416 in regard to presenting service emblems on Sunday at a picnic. I ruled this should be done on another day and in lodge if at all possible.

4.

An interpertation of by-law 4-128 was requested by a lodge that received a petition seeking restoration. A member had been suspended for non-payment of dues prior to consolidation with the surviving lodge. I ruled it required only a 2/3 vote to be restored.

5.

A member of a Kansas lodge moved to California and applied for dual membership. However, because of a problem with communication he was dimitted from his primary lodge. I ruled, as this was an error on the part of the secretary of the foreign jurisdiction the brother's name was to be re-entered and dual membership recognized.

6.

A request was made for permission to organize a Council of Allied Masonic Degrees in Kansas. After reviewing the "History of the Allied Masonic Degrees of the United States of America" permission was granted and it will be knov.'n as LOCH LOMOND COUNCIL U.D.

Proceedings of the

March

7.

A lodge in amending a by-law of their lodge made the amendment retroactive. I ruled this improper as we do not make laws retroactive. Article III, Section 4.

8.

A request for special dispensation to allow a plural member to hold an office in more than one lodge was denied for the good of the order. Also in violation of Article IV, Section 4-401D.

9.

Due to the absence of the Master, Senior and Junior Wardens of a small lodge, I ruled and issued a Letter of Dispensation allowing a Master Mason other than the Master or Wardens to open lodge as provided in Article IV, Section 3-411.

10.

Requested ruling. Does by-law 4-104 apply to request for courtesy degrees by Grand Secretary of another Grand Jurisdiction. I ruled it is not necessary to complete Form J. No. 8 or the Petition for Advancement. This is a courtesy arranged through the Grand Secretary's office of each respective Grand Lodge.

11.

By-law 2-301 was amended changing the wording from Riisioa Fee to Initiatinrv Fee. Several lodges were of the opinion that due to this change a Brother raised during 1987, having received th Entered Apprentice and Fellowcraft Degrees the previous year, the Lodge would not have to pay either one. I ruled they would have to pay the $5.00 fee but only once, which ever case applied. In the future the fee will be paid on initiation as an Entered Apprentice.

12.

Eleven petitions for the degrees were received, investigated and voted on, on recommendation of the respective investigating committees at one time. Nine investigating committees reported orally in open lodge as required by by-law 4-119. Twn did not. The first "combined" ballot failed. The petitions were separated and voted on individually and the nine that were reported properly passed, while the two that were reported through the Master of the lodge failed. As this was an error on the part of the Master, and no fault of the petitioners, I ruled the ballot for these two petitions improper and ordered a new ballot after a proper report has been received from the investigating committee according to by-law 4-119.

13.

A "Petition for Letters of Dispensation" was received proposing a new lodge. In this regard I ruled: 1. It is not necessary to have the approbation of the lodges in the county at the time the petition is filed. 2. A member wishing to retain his original membership in his home lodge a and yet become a Charter Member in the new lodge may do so through our plural membership provisions. 3. There is no law prohibiting the solicitation of donations from Master Masons in the area to help fund the new Treasury of the lodge U.D. even though those Masons do not intend to seek membership in the new lodge.

14.

Annual Report - Article IX, Section 9. To be transmitted to the Grand Secretary on or before the tenth day of January of each year. This year because of'weather and other circumstances, I ruled all reports would be accepted and considered on time if received by the Grand Secretary by February 1, 1988.

15.

Per Article VI, By-law 3-621. All Lodges that were not officially represented at the Annual Communication for the last three years were cited to show just cause why appropriate disciplinary action should not be invoked. Response was positive. CONCLUSION

It is all to easy to overlook someone that should be recognized or thanked for their help, support or special effort during the year. Therefore, to all to whom I am indebted - Thank you and thank you again. H:.W:. Richard A. Porter, PGM, the brother that appointed me as his Grand Senior Deacon, of course is no longer with us. However, I wish to express my appreciation for that appointment and sincerely pray that what has been accomplished this year would have pleased him. He was a devoted Mason and a dear friend. My family. What would I do without them? Each one has contributed in some way to make my year pleasant and successful. I have literally been "out of the office" most of the time this past year, but my sons, Christopher and Jeffery stepped in and assumed the responsibility necessary. They have done a great job and I thank them. I also thank John, Douglas and Chuck for their gifts, support and understanding for being somewhat neglected during this period.

Grand Lodge of Kansas

To my wife, Dixie. You have always gone that "extra mile" for your family and friends. This past year has been no different. Your support, encouragement, help, time and love have strengthened me and given me that extra enthusiasm to sail through this year always on an optimistic note. Thank you. Once again Brothers, thank you for this very enjoyable opportunity to serve Freemasonry in the State of Kansas. Our Fraternity is worth the effort and sacrifice we may make, whether in time or money. We each have an obligation to fulfill if our craft is to remain strong. Be proud of our heritage. Talk about Freemasonry to your sons, friends and neighbors. Invite them to learn more of our good works. Invite them to join us, and always remember our future is in YOUR hands. Sincerely and fraternally, Clifford D. Knauss Grand Master

The beautiful new temple which began as a lodge facility was extended considerably when the proposition was offered that the York Rite Bodies, Order of True Kindred, Eastern Star and Youth Orders be included in the effort. In so doing this has allowed them to increase the size of their operation and provide a more equal distribution of the expenses of operation. This is considered a model operation and it is hoped that many of the lodges and temples can combine and ease the price burden of operation. No furthur business occuring.

REPORT OF THE. GRAND TREASURER

•

•,

M:.W:. William F. Mcintosh, PGM, Grand Treasurer, presented the Grand Treasurer's Report which, on his motion, was accepted and made a part of the minutes. To the M:. W:. Grand Lodge AF * AM of Kansas ' Most Worshipfu.l Grand Master and Brethren:

' , , . ,

I am happy to bring the report of the Grand Treasurer for the past year, although we have had better reports in years past, I'm sure. The, report itself is contained in the proceedings and I won't belabor the point of reading it to you. One thing that should be pointed out, however, is a partial explanation of the deficit of $27,550.00. Part of this amount is attributable in the depreciation account which is nearly $10,000.00. .This is a legitimate expense but it may be equated in our flow of cash. Then the special assessment was overpaid because the bank balance was approaching the FDIC limit of $100,000.00. This overpayment amounted to $11,000.00. This leaves approximately $6,000.00 in excess of income which is accounted for in increased taxes, insurance, and other funds of lesser amounts. It would appear that our financial condition, although sound, because of decreasing membership and increasing costs. Respectfully submitted,

REPORT OF THE GRAND SECRETARY R:.W:. Albert 0. Arnold, Jr., Grand Secretary, gave the following report which, on his motion, was received and referred to the Reports of Grand Officers Committee: To the M:. W:. Grand Lodge of AF Âť AM of Kansas: Once again it becomes my duty as prescribed in our laws to make report of affairs and happenings of the office of Grand Secretary for the year 1987.

the

ANNUAL REPORTS It is with a great deal of pleasure and appreciation I report all 346 Lodges in this Grand Jurisdiction have made report as of this time. Brother secretaries I sincerely thank you. It should be noted, once again we were experiencing a snow storm just as the reports were due. Our Grand Master was contacted and asked for permission to allow a three week stay until the first of February, 1988, this in lieu of the required dead line of January 10th. We are pleased to report he did so making it possible for me to say to you for the first time in many years, the statistical figures are complete. COMMITTEES AREA & DISTRICT DEPUTIES To the chairmen and committees and District and Area Deputies, thank you for assistance in this connection. We just couldn't do it without your cooperation.

your

DUAL /PLURAL MEMBERSHIPS - SUSPENSIONS My Brothers, this continues to be a very difficult program to control. However, we did note some improvement in reporting. The key is - COMMUNICATION. Be sure to give a written report as soon as activity occurs. Several times during reporting, inquiry has been made with regards to suspension of dual/plural members. Our by-law 4-401A clearly states "120 days". This means if payment or restoration is not accomplished within this time frame, suspension will follow in the other Lodge (s). INITIATORY FEE The annual reports brought several inquiries about the initiatory fee. By-law 302 was amended during our last annual communication. Here-to-fore it had been called "raising fee." The then Grand Master recommended changing to INITIATORY FEE. The motion carried as most of us know. Further, with the printing of the proceedings it became law. The questions concerned those who had not completed their Master Mason degree prior to the effective date of this new requirement. Our Grand Master held that the $5.00 must be paid under which ever law applied at the time the petition was received, but the fee would be paid only one time. NUMBER OF YEARS OF MEMBERSHIP An unfortunate incident caused the need to reprint our dues cards this past September. This was without cost to us, but did require additional time, the operator failed to advance-the time by one year. Several questions were raised concerning the years of membership and how they are credited. The formula is to add total number of months, then divide by twelve. This program was begun in the month of September, and so we have continued to use this as a starting point. We generally find the problem to be a Brother raised in December feels he should be credited starting with the preceeding January. This would credit him with eleven months in advance. We do hope he lives that long and stays in good standing, but he really would not have been a member for the full time. BEUARE The New Year was just beginning when on January 6th, 1988, we received word advising us of a fire which completely destroyed the lodge hall of Arcana Lodge No. 31. Because of a small membership, it had been decided several years ago to continue without insurance.


1987-88

Grand Lodge of Kansas

Fortunately the original charter was locked safely in the vault of your Grand Lodge. Also it was possible through our computer records to duplicate the data accumulated since 1975. This was accomplished in four days. Do be careful my Brothers, much valuable history can be lost as well as valuable furniture and paraphernalia. HISTORY/MEMORABILIA We are always pleased to have donations to add to your Grand Lodge library and museum. We do sincerely thank the Brothers, or relatives of Brothers who were thoughtful enough to send these items to us. Still, we would be remiss if we did not report calls from Lodges wishing to celebrate centennials and so on, needing facts of their origins to be used in programs. All too often we find nothing. Please my Brothers, we owe it to future generations to preserve any and all items of our passing years. Send them to us to be placed in your archives. GENEALOGY STUDIES We continue to receive calls and letters on a very regular basis from persons tracing their family tree and individuals who have been Masons during their life times. In many cases the trace is to establish qualification for membership is an appendant order. I feel this should be pointed out to would be suspenders for non-payment of dues. We always try to give all calls prompt answers. CERTIFICATE OF GOOD STANDING The increasing activity of plural/dual/multiple.memberships has brought with it the need for this type of form. So it was, I did apply to our Council of Adminstration for the creation of such a form. I am please to say permission was granted and this form came into being. This should save time and effort. ADDRESSES Shortly after Labor Day this past fall, we found ourselves in a unique position. Many Brothers complained they were not receiving their mail. Still it seemed that for every caller or writer asking about his mail, we received at least one other complaining about the mail he was receiving. Naturally we made investigation. punge part of an old death list, but didn't seem real.

We did find where an operator had failed tn exstill the information and facts reaching us just

On Christmas day, the Topeka newspaper carried a rewrite from the Associated Press. This article stated more people moved in the United States during 1987, than ever in our recorded history as a nation. Then and then only could I fully believe and understand the fact 19,000 Kansas Masons changed addresses last year. Or if you prefer, 52 moved on average each and every day of the year, including Saturdays, Sundays and Holidays. Unfortunately during that same period 1,738 of our members died. just short of five deaths a day.

This means we were

We noted too, during the so called "dark months", many changes were not reported until October and November. Please give us these changes just as soon as possible. Death dates cause us much concern. We do send a number of widows the Kansas Mason, but . only after request. This because there are those who say it just brings back sad memories. Also I want to remind you we are receiving a number of returns for want of complete addresses. Postal regulations require three lines of address. This means street name with number or post office box number. I know there are those who argue their mail reaches them and I do not doubt this to be true. Still we are receiving a number of returns for this reason each time second or third class mail is sent out. Remember too, these returns cost 30 cents each. We are trying to do more of this with our own computer. As our skills improve and equipment is added we hope to solve many if not all of these problems But, do remember my Brothers, computers are not divine, nor are they clairvoyant. If we do not receive the information, no amount of effort will suffice. An example to often repeated was annual reports with all changes for the preceeding twelve months.

The most important person to receive your address change is your Lodge secretary. He is the one who sends your dues notice and the only one who can sign your dues card certifying your good standing. Naturally we are only glad to be of assistance, but we honestly feel the Lodge is the first most important factor with addresses. ESTIMATION OF INCOME & EXPENSES On the following pages you will find the estimations which are required of this office. (By-law 2-111). I realize you have not had an opportunity to study this portion of the report, but if you do find anything needing as answer, I do hope you will ask. Unfortunately you can see what has happened to our budget for 1987. -Real estate tax up $1,722.00 -Personal property tax up $222.00 (fine arts) -Insurance up $1,021.00 -Notice from UPS, rate increase 4.9% -Proposed postal increase of first class mail from 22 cents to 25 cents (12 1/2X increase) 2nd & 3rd class expected to rise as much or more -Paper and associated supplies, ink pens, forms, etc. 6% -Improvement tax $225.75 (six months) Topeka-Shawnee County Planning Commission As you can see, we were forced to spend almost $3,000 which would remind you we did not have a two year notification.

I

REAPPRAISAL The following is said to support and subject of reappraisal.

confirm our

Grand Master's

remarks on

the

Notice of taxes were received bearing a sizable increase. In short moments there after we began receiving calls from lodges and or trustees of building companies.. In turn a call was placed to the Shawnee County appraiser's office. This was cordial, but only advised that the mill levy had been increased. Then a call was made to one of our Brothers who is a former state Senator and practicing attorney. His investigation and return call was indeed a shock. His off hand evaluation of the situation indicated we were all in for additional increases and by a rather large sum. I immediately advised the Grand Master and the Council. This eventually led to a meeting with the President of the Kansas Senate. One member of our Finance Committee, our attorney, without fee, in an advisory capacity only, and myself. We received some very interesting answers to our questions. But, first, several things were established. We were advised: 1. A very sizable majority of Kansans voted for reappraisal. 2. 61% to 71% of our tax dollars are going for public schools, (aren't Masons strong supporters of public education) 3. If we do for you, we would have to do likewise for all fraternal orders in the state. We were told there might be communities where taxes would be reduced. But, you and I know this wouldn't include many of us. Classification seems to be our only real hope. No this will not exempt us from taxation, but place us in or insure us of being in a reasonable category. Lobbying was considered. Caution my Brothers, this is a very sensitive area. Your Grand Lodge is classified as a 501 (c) 10 organization. This means all constituent lodges are also under this IRS identification. True, it does not give the advantage of 501 (c) 3 identification of our Kansas Masonic Home or Foundation, but the great question, can we lobby? Tax exempt organizations are forbidden lobbying. Off hand it would seen we could lobby. Yet we must take infinite care. We certainly do not want to jeopardize our two great Charities. If lobbying comes to pass, then who will stand the cost? Our budget is stretched to the limit. Using invested funds would only decrease interest income. At this point we do not know what the cost would be. Further, I personally feel and appeal would do as much good as any thing. We understand 140,000 appeals have already been filed. For now we advise caution. What you do as an individual about your own taxes is your business, but not where your lodge is involved. Please don't go home and write a "hot" letter to your county appraiser or local representative. On the other hand, it

individuals in the event some

future

The next part of this statement is not easy for me; yet to leave it unsaid would not be true. I do not see how we can avoid additional taxes on our lodges or Grand Lodge building. He will make every effort to insure fair and equal treatment, but again a majority of our citizens have voted overwhelmingly for this measure. We have heard the amount could be as great as 20%, perhaps more. It would be wise to reexamine your lodge funds. If adjustment is necessary, don't wait until large increases are the order of the day. Small increases over a period of time will be more desirable than one large jump. Recently a Lodge just west of Topeka brought in their records. These were well kept and over and extended period of time. They had 75 members at reporting time in 1986. their dues are $25.00. Reporting time 1987 found six deaths, two transfers and two suspensions, leaving 65 members. Their one time renter had discontinued business. Attempts to rent their property have so far been unsuccessful. Current bills amount to $675.00 more than their income. So even if they raised their dues by $10.00 to $35.00, expenses would not be covered. Fortunately they have saved some money from better times and will be able to carefully consider their next move. We encourage you to return to your home lodge and carefully examine your finances and have the fortitude to make adjustment if such be necessary. APPRECIATION As this communication continues, you will realize as I have, our Council of Administration has been faced with many difficult and unpleasant tasks. Still they have indeed accepted their responsibility and acted as needed. My sincerest thanks to them. A special thanks to our Grand Master. He has personally answered many, many letters and I am sure established a closer relationship with our Craft. I could and probably should write a volume about the staff of your Grand Lodge. This year the Angel of Death visited their loved one and relatives five times in sixty days. Still they carried on. Their faith and courage was indeed an inspiration to all of us: U:. Halbert Hortpn, Assistant to the Grand Secretary; Sister Rachael Gilbert, Sister Mary Rebekah Wasson and the secretary to the Grand Secretary, Jean Rader. My personal appreciation and thanks to them and to each and every one of you for allowing us to work and serve you in this capacity. Fraternally submitted,

Albert 0. Arnold, Jr. Grand Secretary

Brother Richard is survived by his lovely wife Elizabeth, a daughter, Maureen Bailey of Clearwater; a son, Richard Allen Porter, Jr. of Long Island, NY; his mother, Vida Porter of Mount Hope; a sister, Harriet Solter of Oklahoma City; and five grandchildren. One of the highlights of M:.W:. Porter's year was (and I quote from his Grand Master's Address): "A Special Communication of the M:.W:. Grand Lodge, AF & AM of Kansas was opened in Ample Form on the First Degree of Masonry at 3:15 p.m. in the Masonic Temple at 2300 West 30th Street, Topeka, Kansas, on March 10, 1984 for the purpose of journeying to the residence of former Governor and Brother Alf M'. Landpn for the awarding of a 75-year Emblem. , The brethren then drove by car to the Governor's residence. A cordial reception followed and it was very spirited and enlightening.' The Governor quickly recognized M:.W:. Richard L. Becker, and recalled many of their past associations. He also recognized M:.W:. Dr. Addison C. Irby who had presented him a 50-year Emblem 25 years prior to their meeting. , . . The Governor invited all of the Grand Officers present, and several of their ladies, to view his memorabilia display, in the lower recreational area of his home. A thoroughly enjoyable time was had by all, and brought many complimentary remarks from the Governor and Brother Landon for our efforts in bringing to his this award." M:.W:.

Brother Ben led, not only in the formation of Meera Chapter, but in the Old Mission Chapter of the Order of DeMolay and the Johnson County Shrine Club. He received the DeMolay Legion of Honor in 1957. . . Brother Graybill was a full time Grand Master. He had retired from the postal service to allow him to give service as Grand Master, and, at no time, day or night did his personal affairs interfere with his duties as Grand Master. We express our sympathy to his beloved wife Pearl. M:.W:. Danielson was born October 9, 1919 in Clyde, Kansas, son of Hobart M. and Gertrude A. (Anderson) Danielson.

REPORT OF GRAND LODGE PUBLICATIONS COMMITTEE W:. Floyd E. (Gene) Ramsey, Chairman, presented the following report which, on his motion, was accepted. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: It has been another busy year for the KANSAS MASON, and again I want to thank all the secretaries and Masters who took the time to send photos and news items for publicationThe regular four issues were published, but because of printing and postage costs we did not print a special issue for "Grand Lodge." Second class postage increases continue to be a problem in keeping the cost down for the KANSAS MASON. Another major problem for us is address changes. We urge you to inform us as soon as you move to save the Grand Lodge additional expense on addresses returned postage due. Two of our issues were increased to 12 pages because of the Masonic Home donor's list which has been part of their section each issue. Our press run has been nearly 60,000 this past year. The KANSAS MASON is your publication and needs your support, both with news items and readership. Send us as many items as you can in advance of your meetings if they coincide with our publication dates. Publication dates and deadlines are printed in every issue. It is up to you to advertise your lodge activities through the KANSAS MASON. Your photos and news items are important.

The Grand Lodge of New Zealand maintains a "Benevolence fund" through contributions from the members. This fund gives grants to various organizations, pays annuities to some brethren, grants, loans and mortgages to neeedy brethren and widows and makes "immediate grants" to distressed brothers and widows.

The final battle of the Revolutionary War, Yorktown, had been won in 1781, the enemy had laid down his arms and departed our shores, and the Treaty of Paris, finally ending our fratricidal war, had been signed in 1783. The Colony of New Jersey had declared independence from Great Britain and instituted the first Constitution of the United States. Soldiers had returned home, inflation had diminished, stability was acknowledged—and a few Freemasons active and concerned about the future of the craft turned their thoughts toward a new government to repalce the Provincial Grand Lodges that had governed the craft in the Colonies " The New Jersey Masons have completed the celebration of the 200th Anniversary of the founding of their Grand Lodge.

The Grand master of Missouri in his address to Grand Lodge, made the following observations: (1) He suggested that good lodge leaders, not good ritualists, produce good lodges. Perhaps too much value is placed on ritualistic proficiency. Many members, who may not have time to become ritualists would make excellent leaders, and should be given the opportunity to serve in the officer line. (2) He stated that it is time for us to become a fraternity of education, rather than one of ritual. We need to concentrate on providing programs of Masonic Education at each of our meetings. This, not ritual, will increase attendance at lodge meetings. LIBRARY The Texas Grand Lodge Library had an addition of 217 books in 1985 bringing the total to 36,056.

One of the facilities of the Masonic Homes in Victoria is "respite care" or "family relief." This is the care of the elderly people for up to 3 weeks and-not more that 6 weeks in a year. The Homes of Victoria are now providing "accommodations and care, comfort and security" for more than 628 people. The Masonic Home and School of Texas provided care for 180 children and 60 widows. The Permanent Endowment Fund income for operating the home and school has exceeded the budget for many years. Home for over 37 people have been provided in Dublin, Ireland. The building was just completed this year and all the accomodations are now taken. Nebraska Masons support two homes, the Masonic Home at Plattsburg and a children's home at Fremont which is also supported by the Eastern Star. The operating deficit of the Nebraska Home was covered by the Endowment Fund. The Virginia Masonic Home is studying the concept of independent living units and is also developing some long range plans. .^ The Masonic Home of West Virginia is on firm financial ground; however, they presently have only 41 residents in the home. The report shows that these residents contributed an average of $5,300 per person per year to the home. A new Western Unit of the Missouri Home has been opened.- It .was recommended each member contribute a minimum of $50 to support the new Unit;

MEMBERSHIP The Grand Master of Ohio issued the following edict in 1985, "There is no objection to encouraging a man who is considered a suitable candidate for Freemasonry. After the procedure for obtaining membership in a Masonic Lodge is explained, the potential candidate should be left to make his own decision and cnme of his own free will."

Grand Lodge of Kansas

1,461 letters.from the Grand Master of California were sent to those members who were liable for suspension. In Nebraska, it was suggested to maintain interest and membership, each lodge should: 1. Organize interesting programs with activity. 2. Orchestrate meetings to move smoothly and not waste time. 3. All officers must be active and proficient. 4. Lodges and members must visit each other. 5. Practice the work for perfection. 6. After learning the ritual, then learn what it means. 7. Encourage social events to include all members of the family. 8. Keep new members active and interested. In Nebraska, some lodges are realizing as their future lies with new members. They are quick to include them in the lodge activities. The average age of the Masons in Nebraska is 65 years. NATIONAL MASONIC FOUNDATION FOR THE PREVENTION OF DRUG AND ALCOHOL ABUSE AMONG CHILDREN The 1986 North American conference of Gand Masters adopted a resolution to form the National Masonic Foundation for the Prevention of Drug and Alcohol Abuse Among Children. Its purpose is to educate, to sponsor and promote research, and to promote programs "to protect youth from the debilities associated with withdrawal, deprivation, or dependency on drugs or alcohol."

to have a "Cipher of Key" published and made A separate cipher was to be prepared for use

With the new cipher available, the installed officers in Nebraska must demonstrate they can open and close lodge in each degree within 90 days of installation. PUBLIC RELATIONS The Grand Master of Ohio reported that several lodges received dispensation for the purpose of having "Masonic Information and Hospitality Booths" at the county fairs in 1985. He stated, I can attest to the success of their endeavors and the good done for Freemasonry in that area." Tiffin Lodge No. 77 received the dispensation to include their Temple in the community's annual tour of Historical Places.; To engender good public relations and a positive image of the craft, the Grand Master of California recommended an amendment to the By-Laws to permit Lodges to make their Temple facilities available for community and public activities. The recommendation was carried over .to the next Annual Communication as it did not receive 5/6 vote required, but did receive a majority vote. The Grand Master of Ontario, Canada, expressed his concern with the display of Masonic Symbols on a.very poorly maintained vehicle. He was also concerned that a vehicle displaying the Masonic symbol may cause another to have a wreck of display bad driving manners, which would not reflect a positive and favorable image for our Fraternity. SCHOLARSHIPS AND ASSISTANCE The Grand Lodge of Iowa awarded 50 scholarships of $500 each. At the first quarterly meeting of the Grand Lodge in Victoria, it was reported that 14 scholarships of $500 each and'many other scholarships of $150 to $750 were awarded. The Scholarship Foundation in Ohio awarded scholarships totaling $30,666.

REPORT OF THE KANSAS MASONIC FOUNDATION, INC. Brother James L. Claussen, Executive Director of the Kansas Masonic Foundation, Inc., presented the following report which, on his motion, was accepted. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: The Kansas Masonic foundation moves into its 22nd year with a report of steady growth in both activities and resources. Our office in the Grand Lodge in Topeka has been busier than ever as more Brothers learn of our services. Our mission continues to be the promotion of educational, scientific and charitable programs for all people in behalf of Kansas Masons and we depend entirely on gifts and contributions to support our activities. These activities are detailed to the following report. . KANSAS MASONIC ALL-STATE HIGH SCHOOL BAND This was the fourth year for our Band and we came back to Kansas State University for camp. K-State hosted the first Band Camp and everyone there was looking forward to having us return. Camp was held the last week in July ending with the East-West Shrine Bowl game on August 3. The key word during camp was "hot" with temperatures all week over 100 degrees. 108 during the Saturday parade. This years Band was right at double the size of our first year with 175 students from High Schools all around Kansas. Sponsorship was provided by 135 Blue Lodges, 10 Eastern Star Chapters, 5 Shrine Units and 2 Scottish Rite Bodies. It was interesting to note that we had 25 new sponsors this year. The sponsor fee remains at $200 and this covers all expenses for the students except ^transportation to and from camp. ^ We continued the use of volunteer Masonic chaperones during camp and want to extend special thanks to those Brothers and Sisters around Manhattan who helped out. In addition, we engaged two high school band teachers, one man and one woman, to help with camp activities all week. This helped the students enjoy an even more rewarding experience musically and personally. The Kansas State staff put on ah excellent camp under the leadership of Stan Finck, director of Athletic Bands. We cannot give enough thanks to this fine university staff for their time and effort with a special nod to the the K-State Drum Majors who spent

day and night working with our: young students.'. We are only accepting High School Juniors, Sophomores and Freshmen for the Band and these students return to. their home towns with a rich musical experience aiid a positive outlook about Kansas Masonry. The 1988 Shrine Bowl game will be at Washburn University in Topeka this year. Washburn is not able to supply enough air-conditioned housing for our anticipated 200 students so we will return to Kansas State for Band Camp and transport the students to Topeka for the game. All Brothers and Sisters are urged to help identify and sponsor outstanding High School students for this exciting program. . , FOUNDATION "C-CLUB" The "C-Club", with individual contributions from Kansas Masons around the world, continues to be our major fund raising project. This cumulative giving program is now being supported by over 17,000 Kansas Masons. The gold "C-Club" pin which is awarded when contributions total $100 or $500 with a ruby, is now proudly worn by over 500 Brothers. The Diamond Donor plaque for contributions totaling $1,000 has been presented to 19 Brothers. The "C-Club" plaque displayed in most Lodges bears the names of all Brothers whose contributions total $25.00. This year, for the first time, we used a gift of attractive Holiday Greeting Cards in a direct mail campaign to solicit contributions. This three phase mailing sent to all Kansas Masons, except those Who requested after the first mailing that nothing further be sent to them, was extremely successful with close to 18,000 Brothers contributing from all over the country. This mail campaign resulted in proceeds of $75,000 for the Foundation which is about double any other mail solicitation program we have used. Plans are under way to repeat this mailing again in 1988 with emphasis on gifts for the Masonic Oncology Clinic. THE KANSAS MASONIC ONCOLOGY CLINIC This fine treatment and research facility for the care of cancer patients was dedicated in 1974 by the Grand Lodge. Over 300 adults and 100 children are seen each month in the clinic located at the Kansas University Medical Center in Kansas City. Each of these patients receiving the best outpatient treatment available know that much of the service is made possible by.Kansas Masons. Our grant to the Clinic this year is $90,000 and funds the positions of Senior Nurse Clinician, Pediatric Nurse Clinician, Pharmacist, and Resource Coordinator. During this past year all net proceeds from the Band and "C-Club" campaign were contributed to support the Oncology Clinic. We also extend special thanks to the Dane C. Hansen Foundation for their continued support with a generous gift dedicated to the Oncology Clinic. This Foundation has supported our cancer program since 1984. STUDENT LOANS A limited number of low interest educational loans are made available each year to Kansas students attending Kansas colleges and universities. These loans are repaid after completion of studies over a four year period at 5% interest. New loans were granted to five students during 1987. These students were from Conway Springs, Wichita, Elsmore, lola and Newton and they are presently attending KU, K-State and Pittsburg State. We are now assisting 12 students attending school. Twenty students have completed studies and are repaying their loans and four loans were paid in full in 1987. Our student loan fund balance as of December 31, 1987, was $70,692. Any Brothers interested in our Student Loan program should make inquiry to Foundation office in Topeka. An information packet and application will be sent to student and family on request.

••

Many Brothers are using the unique services of the Foundation to reduce the exposure of their estate taxation, assure bequests to their families and increase giving'both now and in the future to charities of their selection. Brother John Griffin is serving as a consultant to both the Foundation and the Masonic Home and has assisted many Brothers with their plans. John is an expert .in financial planning and will meet with you and your lawyer or accountant to help in your planning to meet your goals. This service costs nothing as his fee is paid by the Foundationn and other organizations in the state and he sells no financial • products. Call the Foundation or the Home for more information on this service. We are pleased to announce that the Foundation received a sizable gift from a Brother and his wife which will eventually benefit our Student Loan program. This gift is in the form of a Charitable Remainded Unitrust which benefits the donors, during the lifetimes and supports the Foundation later. More details will be available about this generous gift when the time is appropriate. The Foundation continues to administer charitable trusts for Mountain Slope Lodge No. 186 and Hoisington Lodge No. 331 to benefit people in the local community. v; ' Our services are available to any Lodge tional, scientific or charitable purposes.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The following information is from the report of our independent auditors for the last complete fiscal year. . • ' .

I want to again thank our Board of Trustees and Directors for their efforts in support of the Foundation. Our 29 Trustees are appointed each year by the M:.W:. Grand Master as vacancies occur. Grand Lodge officers who served as Trustees or Directors during 1987 include M:.W:. Clifford D. Knauss, R:.W:. Claude W. Norris, R:.W:. Robert M. Nease and R:.W:. Don E. Robinett. Their labor and dedication to Masonic charity is truly appreciated. I also want to extend special recognition and thanks to our secretary, Mrs. Vivian Wild.

The Foundation staff numbers only two sn we share many of the duties and her faithful service has been invaluable. I hope to continue visiting Lodges and other Masonic bodies during the coming year. I am available to bring you programs, information and service as needed. The Foundation should be used to enhance the image of Masonry to the general public and stimulate interest to help reverse our declining membership trend. Call on me. Respectfully submitted:

Ritualistic Program, jhe Grand Lecturers were given their assignments for the upcoming School of Instruction and the agenda for those schools was reviewed and adopted. Attention was then given to the program for the day - the revision and uodating of the .Floor Rules and Instructions. Earlier in the year the Grand Lecturers had been asked to submit their suggestions for guidance. With these suggestions and those received from the craft over the years, those present went over the Floor Rules and Instructions, page by page. When completed, several corrections had been made and one new section added. This was then turned over to the Grand Secretary's office for reprinting. The Ritualistic Committee is very appreciative of the efforts of the Grand Secretary and his office in expediting the reprinting and distribution of the Revised Edition of the Floor Rules and Instructions to the Grand Lecturers, District Lecturers, and Masters and Secretaries of Lodges in this jurisdiction in time for the District Schools of Instruction. The Ritualistic Committee now makes the following recommendations for changes in the Manuel of Floor Movements to the Grand Master and, through him, to the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Kansas: 1.

Fig. #16 reads as follows: (6 to P.R. Door, opens it, steps back about 6 ft., or rather, one step E., etc. The committee recommends that the word "steps" be eliminated and the words "turns around and walks" be substituted. The opening of this paragraph would then read as follows: (6 to P.R. Door, opens it, turns around and walks back about 6 ft. or, rather, one step E. etc.

2.

Fig. #23 does not show the movements of the SW. The committee recommends that the plate for this figure be updated to show these movements.

3.

Fig. #69, last sentence. After Lecture, Lodge is called up for charge, is in error. If Lectures are given. Lodge is already standing, having been called up by the Master during the explanation of the Ninth Emblem in the Third Lecture. The committee recommends that the last sentence. Fig. #69, be eliminated and the following added: "If Lectures are given, Lodge remains standing for charge. given. Lodge is called up for charge."

If Lectures are not

It is the opinion of this committee that these recommendations in no way change the original work or intentions of those ancient brethren who labored so diligently to give us our present ritual. If all Lodges had the same physical layout, there would be no need for the first recommendation; if the original plate had been cut correctly, there would have been no need for a second one. Since the third recommendation points out an obvious error, it is only proper that it be corrected. Our District Lecturer program continues to grow and progress. Here again we are blessed with a group of dedicated Masons who are contributing much to the improvement of ritualistic proficiency in their districts. To snme extent, the program has been hindered by a breakdown in communications and a lack of trained District Lecturers in some of our Districts. However, bit by bit, these problem are being solved and the program is proving quite popular in those Districts where it is being used. We want to-thank Salina Lodge #60 for the generous use of their facilities. The next meeting of the Ritualistic Conmittee and the Grand Lecturers is tentatively scheduled to be held in Salina, August 19 and 20, 1988. It was with the greatest regret that we learned of the death of M:.W:. Durward C. Danielson, Grand Master 1986-87, on September 29, 1987. Danny, as we all knew him, served Masonry with love and devotion over the years. We would be derelict in this report if we did not remember the many years Danny served the Grand Lodge as a Grand Lecturer. His ability to interpret and teach the ritual will be sorely missed. So again, belatedly, we say, "Thank you, Danny." This committee recommends to the Grand Master and through him to the Grand Lodge that a vote of thanks be given to M:.W:. J. Fred Williamson for the many years he has contributed to the Ritualistic Program of the Grand Lodge as Lecturer, Grand Lecturer, and Chairman of the Ritualistic Committee. Through his diligent efforts the purity of the Ritual, as laid down by H:.W:. William B. Shaver has been greatly maintained. Thank you Fred, and please don't get too far away - we may need you!!!

Many progressive changes regarding our Kansas Masonic Home have taken place and the Home has begun to meet the challenge. The Board of Directors instituted the first part of our Long Range Plan that adopted in the fall of 1986. The first priority is the Home's financial stability.

FRATERNAL RELATIONS (Consolidations of Development and and Admissions and Social Service) At the end of our fiscal year, 1987, the Kansas Masonic Home combined it's Development Department and Admissions and Social Services Department into a new entity called Fraternal Relations. Bruce Humphrey is heading up this new Department. This was done to achieve more efficiency in labor and overhead and to strengthen involvment with the Craft. The duties of this new department, while continuing social services and the Chaplain are to redirect our fundraising and development programs. The admissions function performed by the previous department the Administrator's Office.

The Health Care Center maintains it's teaching programs with WSU, Friends University, Kansas Newman College and St. Mary's of the Plains Nursing School and continues a high level of in-service education for our staff. The availability of registered nurses and licensed practical nurses is critical due to the tremendous shortage of this type of personnel. We have to use nursing pools and registries to supplement'staffing to maintain state licensure requirements. If any of you know a nurse who might want to move to Wichita, we could sure use that person.

We continue to be of service to our residents residing on the West Side of our campus. Being available to assist them with their medications, many times allows them to remain in their independant environment longer. Our wheelchair van continues to be of service on Tuesdays and Thursdays of each week for elderly residents of Sedgwick County that have no other means of transportation to physician offices and outpatient services at clinics and hospitals. We charge a minimal fee for this service. Last year we provided over 200 trips for individuals in need of this service. We look to the new year with enthusiasm as Home Care is becoming more clearly recognized as an alternative for our health care needs.

CONCLUSION We changed personnel and reorganized our fundraising programs this winter. There is no formal Development report this year. A list of donors will be published elsewhere. I might conclude by saying that we now have 9000 donors supporting the Kansas Masonic Home over and above their per capita-tax share. This is an increase from the 1600 we had just three years ago. We are making great progress and we are finding new supporters every day. I thank all of our wonderful donors for their kind and special Masonic Home family.

KANSAS MASONIC HOME ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT TO GRAND LODGE, MARCH 18, 1988 WICHITA CONSISTORY, WICHITA, KS Brother Jerry B. Lindenbaum, Adminstrator of the Kansas Masonic Home, gave the following report which, on his motion, was accepted. M;. W:. Clifford Knauss, Grand Master, Grand Lodge Officers and Brethren all. most pleased to report on our Kansas Masonic Home at this annual communication.

I am

My Annual Report is found on page 82 of the Advance Proceedings. I am not going to read it to you. It is rather lengthy and you can read it at your leisure. What I want to discuss with you today is the recent past and future of our Kansas Masonic Home. As you are all aware by now, last operation.

December, our KMH underwent major changes in

it's

The reasons for this were many. You all received correspondance at the time from our Grand Master explaining the situation. Now it has been 12 years since the Home began planning for federal reimbursement and a HCC. Eleven years since the inception of the Home receiving Medicare and Medicaid. Ten years, since the wheels for the HCC building project was put in motion. Brethren, that is a long time ago. Let's move forward to the task at hand and look to the future for a change. Ever since those ten long years have passed, this Craft has not yet come to a consensus on what should be done. Four years ago, a task force made up of Brethren from around the state conducted a study. You remember it. Their conclusion was to continue the Home's mission and move ahead. A survey of the Craft, conducted by the same committee indicated the majority wished to continue the mission. Yet here we are, four years later, and the discussion still rages. This weekend is the time and this Temple the place for us to come to a consenus. The KMH needs your support and above all your blessing and confidence. Please be thoughtful and searching in your deliberations. I am not here to debate those past decisions and philosophies with you, only to report to you what was done last fall, how it has affected the Home and where the Home is now headed. Your KMH must fend for itself, regardless of support and donations, if that support is not sufficient. The facilities in our West Side Residential Center are old, outdated and in need of great repair. We do not meet building codes and our Fire Department has notified us of such. Our insurance company has written several yearly inspection reports to me appraising us of the deficiencies. This no doubt has translated into higher insurance costs. Many of you have viewed the saying is true.

physical plant with your own eyes.

You know what I am

Secondly, the Home has lost close to 1.5 million dollars over the last six years. Brethren, we're operating a business, just like you either own or work for. How many of you sell your products or services under your costs? We support Masonic Charity, therefore, many of our residents can't pay the cost. If you, editorially meaning, our craft cannot support those folks for whatever reason, then the Home must do what is necessary to balance the books. This is PART TWO of what we did last fall. First, the Home Board asked all the private pay residents to move from our West Side facilities until they could be updated to provide safe, modern accomodations. We then moved the remaining 32 residents, all of whom are assets assigned, the people, we the Kansas Masonry, are responsible for, to the north end of that building which is in the best physical shape and closed the remaining 75% of the West Side. Two things now will seemingly happen. Either we remodel that building and offer our Brethren modern accomodations and build the numbers back up or attrition will eventually close that program when all the folks have eventually taken up residence in the HCC, when their health fails. Which course shall we take? Secondly, PART TWO of the process was to reduce expenses to balance the budget. By shutting down 75% of the West Side, we are saving expenses in upkeep, utilities and staff. Less residents mean less of everything. We closed the Development Office and reorganized that function under Bruce Humphrey. Administration has now added Bruce's old duties to theirs. We laid off Staff. We brought in a food service company to run our dietary department eliminating 20 some people from the payroll and eliminating payroll taxes and benefit costs. We refinanced our Bond issue and are saving over $100,000/year.


1987-88

Each department was affected. Not counting dietary staff, we reduced our labor by about 20 people. This works out to savings of over $150,00/year. Our yearly labor bill is now greatly under what it was only three years ago. In total, we budgeted $500,000 less for this year and are projecting for the time in a long time, a modest black outcome instead of continuing red ink.

first

It hasn't come without a price however. We have become unpopular with many Brethren and their families, most of whom sought admission to the Home. Our HCC census is showing the signs of bad publicity. From September to December, we logged only 10 calls for admissions and only admitted two patients. Staff moral has been tough, but we have hung in there and are turning the corner. The Committment to remain solvent is foremost. This is what this Craft has been after, is it not, year after year at these annual communications? The mandate to BALANCE the budget!!! We are doing it. I know I may sound too strong to some of you, but not strong enough to others. The Home has been slammed; and praised around the state for many years. I am the Administrator of your Home. It is my duty and obligation to stand up for it, support it, work for it, and try to convince you of it's merits. I can't imagine you would want anything else out of the person who leads the Home. I am not going to back down on that committment because I believe in our Home, it's mission, what it does to serve Masonry. Most of you in this room know me. You know I won't alter that committment. You might not like all my approaches, like the letters and appeals for dollars, but honestly, if you were in my position, would you not seek all the support you could get and it is working. I would not be doing my job for you, if I didn't. We are now at a turning point. Where do we go from here? We have many Brothers and Sisters to care for. You will have the opportunity later today or tommorrow to discuss this. Our Grand-Master will present a remodeling plan which is significantly different from the original plan of three years ago. While you're in town, if you want to truly find out what I have been talking about and it you are truly serious about making the' best decisions for.the good of Masonry, stop by and visit the Home. It is only three minutes from here. If you don't view it first hand, how can you make a truthful decision. I have asked, that a summary of the remodeling project be passed out to you. Please review it so you can discuss the merits of the proposal. You can stop by our booth in the alcove and ask questions. One last housekeeping item; Bruce asked me to tell you that anyone who is to pick up a Pilgrimage or date plate, please do so at our table. I thank you for listening tn me M:. W:. Sir. I now ask that my report be accepted for the proceedings of this Grand Lodge Communication. Report to the M:.W:. Grand Lodge AF & AM of Kansas, March 18, 1988, Wichita, Kansas Jerry B. Lindenbaum Administrator of the Kansas Masonic Home Recognition of Ancient Form Lodge No. 34 The officers and members of Ancient Form Lodge No. 34 asked to be received in the East. At this point the Brethren of Ancient Form presented the Kansas Masonic Home with a check in the amount of $400.00, and also, a check in the amount of $400.00 to the Kansas Masonic Foundation; a total contribution of $800.00. This is a continuing program in Ancient Form Lodge and although they are small in numbers they are large in spirit. GRAND CHAPLAIN'S FUND W:. William J. Brown, shortly after being appointed Grand Chaplain, asked for, and received permission from the Grand Master to establish a "Grand Chaplain's Fund." This proved successful and resulted in a check for $1,200. This will establish the Grand Chaplain's Endowment Fund, providing a full time chaplain at the Kansas Masonic Home.

REPORT OF TRIALS AND PUNISHMENTS COMMITTEE M:.W:. Robert D. Caplinger, PGM, gave the following report which, on his motion was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: During the past year, the Committee has acted on four.cases as follows: 1. Charges were filed against a Lodge Secretary of a Kansas lodge (i.e.) (1) Charging failure to perforn the duties and responsibilities of the office of Secretary and (2) Charges that the Secretary engaged in electioneering.

Our office has received the usual number of unreadable or unreportable communicacations for the "various and sundry" some of whom would seem to been mentally deranged and/or have fallen under the spell of the recent attacks of Freemasonry.

The Most Worshipful and Grand Lodge of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas do forward to them our most warm and generous Fraternal Greetings with our prayers to the G.A.O.T.U. for His Blessings in the years to come.After second, carried by a show of hands. BRAZIL: Brazil now has 25 State Grand Lodges all of which are considered regular by the Commission on Information for Recognition of the Conference of the Grand Masters of Masons on North America. We have reported, in the past, on the difficulty to maintain up-to-date information with many of the Masonic bodies in some countries. Sometimes a "Grand Lodge" has only three of four constituent lodges. We do have some recommendations to help clear up our records. Masonic Charts show Kansas as having Fraternal relations with the Grand Lodge of Guanabara (which does not exist) and not having with the Grand Lodge of the State of Rio de Janeiro (which does exist and which has since 1983 taken over the activities of the Grand Lodge of Guanabara): We move that this Grand Lodge adjust its records accordingly and establish Fraternal Relations with the Grande Loja Unida do Estado Rio de Janeiro with an exchange of Grand Representatives. In March of 1987 this Committee reported that the Grand Lodge of the State of Sao Paulo had sought recognition. That report was in error. The original document was from Sao Paulo, but was, in fact, seeking recognition for a Sister Jurisdiction of Mato Grdsso. We are in good Fraternal Relationship with the Grand Lodge of the State of Sao Paulo. My appreciation to M:.W:. Erwin Seignemartin, Grand Secretary of the Grand Lodge of Sao Paulo for his patience and courtesy in this matter. For some months the Grand Secretary has been in correspondence with me concerning a request from the Grand Lodge of the State of Mato Grosso for recognition . I have pondered this request since we not only show as being already in fraternal accord with Mato Gosse but even have an exchange of Grand Representatives. A study has shown that the original policital state of Mato Grosso was divided into two new states: Mato Grasso and Mato Rrasso do Sul. I do not know how the "new" Grand Lodge of Mato Grosso lost their records of our Fraternal Recognition but since they have we need to reopen communication with them and re-establish our relationship: We move that this Grand Lodge, through the office of our Grand Secretary, reaffirm our Fraternal Recognition of Mato Grasso and re-appoint Grand Representatives in order that their record be kept in order. After second, carried by a show of hands. We have requests for recognition from Grand Lodge do Estado de Alagoas; the Grande Loja do Rio Grand do Norte; and from Grand Lodge of the State of Rondonis Glomaron. All of these, and the other "Grand Lodges" of Brazil, which we do not recognize, will be kept on file for review. We are glad to note that the certificates of Grand Representative have been exchanges between ourselves and the Grand Lodge of Brazilia: Brother Lewis C. Carter being their Grand Representative near our Grand Lodge. COLUMBIA: Me have two communications: one concerns an internal dispute within Grand Lodges and the attempt to form a new Grand Lodge and resulting legal actions. We have no report on the outcome of the activity. We have a second item: Cartegena requests formal

move that this Grand Lodge establish formal relationships with the Grand Lodge of Cartegena (Columbia) and that an exchange of Grand Representatives be effected. The Grand Lodge of Cartegena 'is recognized as being regular by the Commission of Fraternal Recognition. It has been established since 1921 and we have been in correspondence with them since 1984. After second, carried by a show of hands. EQUADOR: Correspondence received confirming the appointment of W:. Brother David Snyder replacing the late M:.W:. Addison C. Irby, PGM, as their Grand Representative near our Grand Lodge. EL SALVADOR: Correspondence confirming their "re-orient and re-organize the interlodge relations" and re-affirming John A. Schowalter as their Grand Representative near our Grand Lodge. FRANCE: The Grand Lodge Nationale of France is the Regular Grand Lodge and the only one with which we have Fraternal Relationships. The irregular Grand Orient is still active and creating confusion. Recently we have received much material about M:. W:. Jeans Mons, G:.M:. of the Grand Lodge Nationale of France. One of our Committee, W:. David Recob is their Grand Representative next to Our Grand Lodge. W:. Brother David gives strong support and backing to M:.W:. Jean Mons and the Grand Lodge Nationale of France. We agree and feel that the activities of the Grand Orient are not even worthy of our mention. GREECE: We appreciate the correspondence listing the new Grand Officers all is well within that Jurisdiction. ISRAEL: We appreciated the annual Report and listing of officers the pressures under which that Grand Lodge must operate.

NIGERIA: Nigeria has no regular Grand Lodge but Regular Lodges do exist there although under Scottish of English Charter. Our Pittsburg No. 187 had a visitor from Faith Lodge No. 1271, Logos Nigeria (a Scottish Lodge). This is to remind us that each Lodge Secretary has a "list of regular lodges" and as well, need to contact our Grand Secretary. There are no racial or color barriers in Freemasonry and "regular" may apply to any Visitor from abroad or from sister jurisdictions within the USA. PHILLIPPINES: We appreciated the quick disclaimer from the Grand Lodge concerning one of their local lodges solicitation of funds from us. We get many such appeals and never reply-if you get an appeal for funds please check with our Grand Secretary. SOUTH AFRICA: An appeal for funds to build a Masonic Centre came from the Provincial Grand Lodge in Transvaal. We recommend no action and feel the appeal is out of order. SWITZERLAND: We appreciate the hospitality shown by our Grand Lodge, through the office of our Grand Secretary and his lady, to R:.W:. Jean C. Huguet, the Grand Representative of Kansas near the Grand Lodge of Switzerland (Alpina) on their recent visit to Kansas. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA: We received a request from the Grand Secretary's Office regarding answering as inquiry from the Grand Lodge of California to give a "history in our Grand Lodge on the subject of the so-called 'American Doctrine' of recognizing Grand Lodges." I wrote the Grand Secretary and asked for a definition of the term: "so called American Doctrine of recognition of Grand Lodges." He, being unable to find an answer in our Grand Lodge, forwarded my request to the Grand Lodge of California. This was the summer of 1987. We have, to date, no rely. If we ever have a definition then I will be glad to reply and share my answer. CONCLUSION: In closing let us again thank the Grand Master for allowing us to serve this Grand Lodge. We also appreciate the work of Brother Serge Hanson, Topeka No. 17 for translating for us. Our great thanks to the Office of R:.W:. Albert 0. Arnold, Jr., Grand Secretary for his prompt, courteous and efficient manner in handling all correspondance and bringing items to our attention. Respectfully submitted:

OPERATION "KAN" W:. Glenn L. Knapp, Chairman, submitted the following.report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of AF 4 AM of Kansas: Show and Tell: I will show you what the program Operation "KAN" can do for the newly made amputee by sharing with you one of my experiences. Last spring a week before our Grand Masters reception I learned that my church organist's aunt who live in Abilene had to have her leg amputated. On my way to our Grand Master's reception I stopped at the Abilene hospital to see her. She was waiting anxiously for my visit, for her sister had called and told her that a man from Leavenworth was coming to see her. The hospital personnel was very helpful and cooperated in every way they could. We had a very warm and caring visit, ard on leaving I gave her one of our OPERATION "KAN" booklets. A month later I was on my way to Hutchinson and stopped in Abilene and gave her a call. She invited me to stop by. On arriving at her home she was quick to inform me that when she returned home from the hospital she read the booklet that I had given to her, and when she saw the Masonic Emblem on the back she was quite pleased. You see, she is a member of The Order of Eastern Star and her husband is a Mason and has been for several years. I'm glad to have had those warm and caring moments with this wonderful lady in her time of need. Fraternally submitted, Glenn L. Knapp, Chairman Larry M. Lein William J. Colnar Wilbur L. Morris

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC SCHOOLS W:. John A. Schowalter, Chairman, submitted the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of Ancient, Free, and Accepted Masons of Kansas Again this year, your Public Schools Committee has endeavored to continue and improve the programs that it has developed to support and promote nur free public school system; that is, a statewide scholarship essay contest for juniors and seniors in the public high schools of Kansas; and the promotion of American Heritage--Public Schools Month. A special book distribution program was also begun this year. This committee is authorized and its responsibilities described in Section 2-124C of the Grand Lodge By-Laws. It is charged to "...develop programs..." and to "...guide and advise the Grand Lodge in supporting and strengthening the free public school system...". ESSAY CONTEST The topic of this year's Essay Contest was "Should Sex Education Be In The Public Schools?" While this subject is somewhat controversial, its recent exposure in the media made it a very popular topic. It produced some very good essays which indicated that a lot of thought had gone into them on the part of the writers. Participation in the contest was also very good with entries from 123 girls and 95 boys, each winners of local lodge contests. Due to budgetary problems, the amounts of the scholarship awards have remained the same since 1982, that is: $1,000 for first place; $700 for second; $500 for third; $300 for fourth; and $100 for fifth place to each boy and girl winner. There were also three Honorable Mentions is each category that carried no scholaship award. The winners of the 1987 Essay Contest are: First Place

Honorable Mention

Again this year, the committee had the able assistance of Brothers Royal B. Brown of Leavenworth, Conrad F. Johnson of Sabetha, and Arris M. Johnson, PGM, of Hays who served as judges for the judges for the Essay Contest. AMERICAN HERITAGE—PUBLIC SCHOOLS MONTH On January 14, 1988, the Honorable Mike Hayden, Governor of Kansas, proclaimed the month of February, 1988, to be observed as American Heritage—Public School month in Kansas. A letter was sent to all lodges enlisting their support and encouraging them to hold a special program during February in celebration of American Heritage—Public Schools Month. SPECIAL PROJECT Recently M:.W:. Thomas C. Raum, Jr. Past Grand Master and Sovereign Grand Inspector General in Kansas for the Scottish Rite, approached this committee and asked that we coordinate a book distribution project that he was proposing. The committee agreed to assist with this project. Brother Raum's proposal was to present a copy of the book Dynamic Freedoms, which is published by the Supreme Council of the Scottish Rite, to every high school library in Kansas. The committee felt that this project would not only place a very good book on Americanism in the hands of our young people, but would also provide some good positive exposure for Freemasonry in general during the time of the celebration of the bicentennial of the United State Constitution. We soon realized that the scope of this project was beyond the abilities of this committee alone. We then asked the Grand Master for the help of the Area Deputy Grand Masters and through them the District Deputy Grand Masters to accomplish this project. He agreed and was very supportive. This project is not complete as of this Grand Lodge session. However, we have been advised that many of the books have been presented to the high school libraries. The project will continue into the next Grand Lodge year. Also next year, we are planning distribution of these books to the local public libraries across the state. RECOMMENDATION The Essay Contest has continued to grow. The number of entries at the state level has nearly doubled in the last 10 years. Unfortunately our scholarship awards have not kept pace. We, therefore, recommend that the number of scholarship awards be increased to include a sixth place and that the other awards be adjusted as follows: First Place, SI,000; Second Place, S800, Third Place, S600; Fourth Place, S400; Fifth Place, $200; and Sixth Place, SlOO each in the separate girls and boys contests.

CONCLUSION We want to thank our Grand Master, M:.W:. Clifford D. Knauss for giving us the opportunity to serve the Craft, and for his continued support throughout the year. To R:.W:. Albert 0. Arnold, Jr., Grand Secretary, and his staff, our thanks for their assistance. Also, a special thanks to our Essay contest judges for their valuable service. Our thanks also go to the Area Deputy Grand Masters and District Deputy Grand Masters who have assisted us with the distribution of books this year. Brethren, we believe that our Grand Master's program of "selective invitation", together with his leadership and enthusiasm has given Kansas Masonry a new beginning; a reawaking if you will. Our fraternity is beginning to come alive with a renewed enthusiasm and sense of purpose. It is our hope that some of this new vigor is also applied to our public schools programs because the public schools are one of the principal foundation stones of this great nation that we call our home, the United States of America.

COMMITTEE ON CHARTERED LODGES AND LODGES U.D M:.W:. Robert G. Jackson, PGM, Chairman, submitted the following report which, on his motion was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge AF & AM of Kansas: It would be easy to dwell on the challenges of the past as they relate to: 1. Membership loss 2. Lodge consolidations 3. Service to the craft, communities, state and national affairs. Suffice it to say, however, these challenges to Freemasonry in Kansas pertinent today as they were twenty-five years ago.

For the effective deliverance of the principles of Freemasonry through granted charters, we need to evaluate our present programs and pursue new courses of action. Courses of action that employ change were is beneficial and the avoidance of such where the fads or whims of an unstable society exist. Brethren, this year we have seen the need to consolidate six lodges. Our Grand Master has evaluated these consolidations carefully and determined this course of action in the best interest of Kansas.

NPD continues to increase. Numerous lodges (up to a 100 or more) are experiencing financial challenges. Increased cost of operation is a challenge to all lodges. Taxation looms as a big hurdle. The challenge of Lodge programing involving all members of the craft, EA's, EC's and MM's alike, has been and will continue to be addressed. We ask is there a need for new lodges to be formed? Is there a need to formulate plans whereby charters may be moved? Do lodges need to be more mobile? We are pleased to report one new lodge in the Wichita is in the fomative stage. Brethren, this preliminary report is submitted for edification and review. A more detailed report is forthcoming. We urge your careful review of these reports as well as the proposals of our Grand Master and other interested and dedicated Brethren.

Another report coming to this committee is that there are some Masonic Lodges in Kansas that are charging the youth groups rent for the use of their Lodge Halls. One Lodge charges the youth group $90.00 for-additional rent for a practice night.

M:.W:. Arris M. Johnson, PGM, Chairman, submitted the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas On May 7, 8 and 9, 1987, the Chairman of this Committee and the Deputy Grand Master of Kansas, R:.W:. Claude Norris, attended the Midwest Masonic Education Conference in Fargo, North Dakota where many ideas and suggestions were exchanged. We found that the problems of all Grand Jurisdictions seem to be about alike and the solutions are all taking about the same direction. From the ideas discussed, germs of new ideas and directions came to the two of us who attended the meeting and we had ample time to discuss them as we drove home. Your Masonic Education Committee is now in the process of writing and testing a possible Correspondence Course which we believe should motivate the Masons of Kansas who avail themselves of it to become more knowledgeable about Masonry. It will eventually cover several areas of Masonry such as Jurisprudence, history, symbolism, philosophy, etc. We are also exploring other modes of delivery for Masonic Education to the Masons of Kansas. Your Chairman has had the opportunity to share Masonic Education through the quarterly letter sent to all members of the Kansas Lodge of Research and through some articles written for the Kansas Mason.

REPORT OF CHURCH-LODGE RELATIONS COMMITTEE W:. Charles B. Bennett, Chairman, submitted the following report which, on his motion, was accepted: To the M:. W:. Grand Lodge of Kansas of AF & AM of Kansas A surprising occurrence during 1987 developed when certain religious spokesmen took it upon themselves to raise questions about the philosophy and intentions of our Masonic Order. This kind of thing has occurred over the years. Yet, to have the high ethic and deep commitment of Masonry questioned in this enlightened age is puzzling. However, it has given a chance for positive educational programs. The Grand Master of Kansas has been able to project for the wider public those qualities of morality and brotherly love upon which our Order is founded. Consequently, what could have been a negative situation has been used for good. We stand always ready to respond to any questions asked in good faith by those who have concerns about our Order. True piety has no more constant friend than the Order of Freemasons. Dr. Charles B. Bennett, Chairman Kenneth V.

In accordance with by law 2-118 of the Constitution and By-laws of the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas, this committee makes the following report: The accounting firm of Farmis has been engaged to officially audit the books and make inspections of investments and properties. This report appears elsewhere in these proceedings and is a part of this report. This committee has reviewed the monthly income and expense statements sent to us by the Grand Secretary. We find these statements to be in accordance with our by-laws and the budget set forth for this Grand Jurisdiction. It is the opinion of this committee that the Grand Treasurer and Grand Secretary have devoted a considerable amount of thought and good judgment in investing the funds of the Grand Lodge, and we appreciate their cooperation this year. This committee examined the files and records in the office of the Grand Secretary and found the same to be complete and up to date. The furniture and fixtures in the Grand Lodge building were inspected and examined. We found several pieces of furniture not being used or likely to be used in the future. This committee would like to recommend that these assets be turned into cash and these funds by used to update and purchase new machinery needed in the Grand Lodge building. The finance committee met with the Council of Administration and the Grand Secretary to propose a budget to present to this Annual Communication. This budget appears in the Grand Secretary's report. It should be brought to your attention that the cost of operating the Grand Lodge is rising every year, insurance and taxes being the two largest items. Rising costs due to normal inflation is not our only problem. In the last eight years since our last per capita tax increase, we have lost approximately 10,000 members and this is a loss of $60,000 in revenue. The members of this committee would like to thank our Grand Master M:.W:. Clifford D. Knauss for the privilege of serving our Grand Lodge. Respectfully submitted:

AWARDS M:.W:. Clifford D. Knauss with the assistance of W:. Conrad F. Johnson, Grand Senior Deacon, made the following awards: Randall L. HoUoway, Worshipful Master of Narka Lodge No. 349, received the Chester L. Gilbert traveling trophy as the outstanding young Lodge Officer for the past year, W:. Alvin K. Banman received the Masonic Service Award. W:. Banman's years of service are continuing in spite of his 80 plus years. W:. Mike S. Haxton, Past Master, Wyandotte Lodge No. 3, received the Masonic Association Award on behalf of the Lodge. One of the highlights of the evening was the presentation of the Distingushed Service Award. This is awarded to only one Master Mason each year and is the highest award given by the Jurisdiction of Kansas. R:.W:. Merle D. Bradley and his lady were escorted to the speaker's podium by W:. Conrad F. Johnson, Grand Senior Deacon. M:.W:. Clifford D. Knauss then proceeded to present him with this most cherished award. Many were surprised, not at the fact he received this award, but when. This is due to the fact that Brother Merle upon being raised to the sublime degree of a Master Mason in Topeka Lodge No. 17 on April 14, 1971 has virtually become a dynamo of activity. Although we do not have exact records, without a doubt. Brother Merle must hold some sort of record in his Lodge for the most petitions turned in by one member. He was soon named to the line and by 1974 was in the Master's chair. Brother Merle is still quite active. This does not only include many others a well.

Time nor space will not permit us to list all of his many affiliations. But, we can say York Rite, Red Cross of Constantine, Scottish Rite as secretary of the Valley of Topeka. He is a 33 Mason and is a member of Arab Shrine of Topeka and the Order of Eastern Star, Topeka Chapter No. 462. Time and time again this devoted Mason has gone the extra mile and we know he continue to do so. Thus we say the award is indeed well bestowed.

The tenth Annual Masonic Retreat was held at Rock Springs 4-H Ranch, near Junction City, on Labor Day weekend, September 5, 6 and 7, 1987. The weather cooperated beautifully, neither too hot nor too cold, and what little rain we received fell only at night. This is a beautiful gathering spot for the Kansas Masons and their families and friends that have been attending this annual weekend of relaxation and fun since it was first initiated by H:.W:. Chester Gilbert in 1978. It's not the Holiday Inn, but then it's a long way from roughing it. We have very comfortable quarters, excellent family style meals prepared for us by the Rock Springs staff and numerous activities, such as horseback riding, canoeing, swimming, horseshoes, square dancing, archery, rifle range, tennis, Softball, etc. There are also some more relaxing activities such as car playing and just sitting in the shade watching the others who choose to participate in the more strenuous fun. The cost for three days, two nights and seven meals is extremely reasonsonable. You couldn't even stay home for the same price, and the committee recommends that every Mason bring his own Labor Day weekend "family activity" to Rock Springs in 1988. Let the Ranch Staff and Activities Committee take care of your needs and enjoy the company of your brothers and sisters in an atmoshpere of fellowship and fun. Attendance in 1987 was 66, the same as 1986, but with the help of the 1987-1988 District Deputies we hope to spread the word of this great activity to every active Mason who may have heretofore been unsure of what the Masonic Retreat was all about. In addition to the activities we have had in the past, we are planning to add a Talent Show in 1988. Your're going to love it. Plan to attend.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON JURISPURDENCE M:. W:. Arthur C. Hodgson, PGM, Chairman, presented the following report. Certain' items in this report were acted upon individually; and then at the conclusion, the report was accepted as a whole. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: INTRODUCTION The Committee on Jurisprudence has been consulted many times on matters of dence. We enjoyed our year of service and the work of the committee has been by correspondence and long distance telephone calls. We have not met as a until this communication of Grand Lodge.

FUNCTION OF THE COMMITTEE OF JURISPRUDENCE

The function of the committee is set forth in By-law 2-119. As we view our function, we believe it to be of assistance to our Grand Master and to render our interpretation of the law upon his request. We feel that all requests for an interpretation should come to the committee from the Grand Master, and if it is not handled this way we believe that the Grand Master could be in a position of not knowing what matters were being asked of the committee to interpret or of what interpretations were being given. SPECIAL DISPENSATIONS The Special Dispensations granted by our Grand Master have been reviewed and consif^er that all are within the powers and prerogatives nf our Grand master and recommend that they be approved.

RULINGS Our Grand Master has made 15 separate rulings. Most of the rulings have been discussed with at least the Chairman of the Committee on Jurisprudence. Our committee feels that they are worthy of adoption with the understanding on our part, at least, that they do not change the statutory law in any respect. They have effect only during the year in which they were made.

Proceedings of the

March

The committee realizes that there may be some who do not agree with the rulings. As a matter of fact, the committee is not 100% in favor nf each ruling, but for the purpose of discussion assume that one or more of the rulings was incorrect, what are you going to do about it? The rulings have been made, they have been acted on and there isn't anything in our opinion that Grand Lodge can do to nullify the effects of the rulings. We move the approval of the Grand Master's rulings. The following legislation was introduced and Communication.

CONCLUSION A'"Grand Master is a person. They have varying talents, they have different abilities, different visions, they react differently and they think differently. We can no more put a Grand Master in a strait jacket than we can put and individual Mason in a strait jacket. The committee has enjoyed this year of service. We are convinced that our Grand Master has given his best. We are convinced that he has been sincere in all that he has attempted to do. He has had the vision of leaving Masonry in this Grand Jurisdiction a little bit better than when he took office. Future ages will give us a better appraisal of this but we can say here and now that it has been a pleasure working with our Grand Master. When he lays down his gavel as Grand Master for the last time we believe that he will be entitled to the plaudits of the Craft. Respectfully submitted,

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH OF M:.W:. CLIFFORD D. KNAUSS BY M:.W:. W. NOLAN ARTZ PAST GRAND MASTER 1979 As has been the practice, the Past Grand Master who appoints the present Grand Master to the position of Grand Senior Deacon writes the Biographical Sketch of the present Grand Master. M:.W:. Richard A. Porter appointed M:.W:. Clifford D. Knauss, and since our beloved Brother M:.W:. Richard A. Porter passed this life June 20, 1987 I, as the Masonic Grandfather of the Grand Master, was asked to write the biographical sketch. It is indeed a source of great personal satisfaction that in the short span of years allotted to man here of earth, one should meet and know and learn to love a man who embodies one's idea of a real man, and more especially when that man is a Mason. Masonry has in the past numbered among its members many wonderful characters, men who have lived and wrought as a true Mason should do; men who have carried onward the great fundamental principles of our beloved Order; men whose names shall live in the history of Masonry long after you and I have been gathered to our Father. But none I am sure, no not one, will stand out clearer or shine brighter than that of the present Grand Master of Kansas, Most Worshipful Clifford D. Knauss. One might continue to enumerate and enlarge upon the many splendid characteristics and virtures that constitute the moral standards of his life. One might speak in glowing terms of his personality and his individuality, but all this would not add^ one single thing to the already high esteem in which he is held by the Masons of Kansas. To those of us who have been his neighbors and who have known him intimately for many years, who know him in his home, his business and his community life, and who love him for himself alone, he is just plain Cliff, the real man and the real Mason. Clifford D. Knauss.was born in Poughkeeps-ie, New York on May 18, 1927. The family moved to Southern California in 1929 where he graduated from the Woodrow Wilson High School of Long Beach, California in 1945. His father, Edgar 0. Knauss, is a member of Palos Verdes Lodge No. 389 of Long Beach, California, and the York Rite Bodies of Long Beach, and the Scottish Rite Bodies of Wichita. After graduating from High School, Cliff served in the United States Navy as a Machinist Mate on a mine sweeper. He received and honorable discharge in 1946.

Motor

In 1946 to 1953 Cliff was employed by the Southern California Edison Co., and in 1953 by the Firestone Tire and Rubber Co. In 1954 Cliff and his family moved to Halstead, Kansas where he was employed as the General Manager of Legg Company and Rub-R-Slat Draper Company. These two companies were incorporated into Legg Company in 1965 and Cliff served and President and General Manager until 1967 at which time he became President and Chairman of the Board of Directors and currently is the Chairman of the Board. At an early age Cliff belonged the Searchlight Chapter of Order of DeMolay in Long Beach. He received his degrees in Masonry in Halstead Lodge No. 46 in 1955 and served as Master in 1960. In the Grand Lodge of Kansas Cliff has served as DDGM in 1979, Grand Junior in 1980 and Grand Marshal in 1982 and on various committees.

Steward

As a member of the Scottish Rite Bodies he served as Venerable Master of Elmo Lodge of Perfection in 1978. Cliff received the Scottish Rite Degree February 27, 1971, Valley of Wichita; the 32nd KCCH degree November 19, 1977; and the Honorary 33rd degree November 16, 1985. Cliff belongs to the York Rite Bodies of Newton and in 1988 received the Gold Honor Award of York Rite Masons presented by the York Rite Sovereign College of North America. Cliff is the first person in Kansas to receive this high honor. Cliff is a member of St. David Conclave, Red Cross of Constantine; Arkansas Valley No. 27 RAM; Hutchinson No. 13 Cryptic Masons; Newton No. 9 KT.

of our Grand Lodge officers has not been broken, performance of the duties and lessons exemplified

The circle of fraternal friendship of the living Past Grand Masters was broken by the passing of M:.W:. Ray W. Kinzie on December 24, 1988. M:.W:. Ray was elected and installed as the Grand Master of Kansas on March 10, 1960. He became the 91st brother to hold this exalted position since the Grand Lodge was formed in 1856. He was christened RAY WESLEY KINZIE, the son of GEORGE and MAUD KINZIE of Alexandria, Nebraska, and was born in that city on April 15, 1905. He attended school in Hebron, and after graduation there, attended college in Grand Island, specializing in business administration. M:.W:. Kinzie accepted employment with the Santa Fe Trails Transportation Co., and came to Wichita in 1926. He progressed with the company to the position of Secretary and Treasurer. He was a member of the First Presbyterian Church of Wichita. He was married to RUTH REILLY of Norton, Kansas on May 31, 1926. They had one daughter, BETTY RUTH ZULTNER of Chicago, Illinois, and two grandchildren, RICHARD JR. and RUTH ANN. H:.W:. Kinzie served his lodge, Bestor G. Brown No. 433, as Master in 1944, and the M:.W:. Grand Lodge as District Deputy Grand Master in 1946. He has been active in Scottish Rite in Wichita and was coronated Inspector General Honory of the Thirty-Third Degree in 1955.

M:.W:. Ray resided at the Woodlawn Nursing Home during his long illness. The M:.W:. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas opened on the Lodge of Sorrow at 11:00 a.m., December 30, 1988 in the hall of Bestor G. Brown Lodge No. 433. Services were held at the Mission Chapel Mausoleum in Wichita. M:.W:. Larry D. Weingardner conducted the graveside services in a very proficient manner. We were also saddened by the passing of R:.W:. Calvin E. Bruns who died May 17,1988 while se rving in the office of District Deputy of District No. 28. R:.W:. Calvin was a member of Ashlar Lodge No. 344, Master in 1967 & 1971 and served as Secretary from 1972 thru 1986. Also, R:.W:. Kenneth R. Dooley passed away September 26, 1988 while serving as Chairman of the Correspondence Committee. He was Master of Mount Vernon Lodge No. 145 in 1970 and 1978. He was DDGM in 1979. These two R:.W:. Sirs both have very impressive records in their service to freemasonry. It is with regret we report the death of R:.W:. Raymond E. Martin, DDGM, District 20. His death occured on March 7, 1989. R:.W:. Martin had planned to attend this Com, munication and for that purpose had been meeting with other members of his home lodge the night before his death. He was also Secretary of Golden Rule Lodge No. 90 at the time of his passing. His service to the fraternity and to the Order Eastern Star will be greatly missed. We trust that the sorrov/s and burdens of the departed have been by the many prayers offered by friends, relatives, and brethren.

greatly lightened

I've come the the end of that Level of Time That leads us all on to that Grand Lodge Sublime From whose sacred borne none ever return More light in Masonry, there I shall learn By an altar where light shall ever burn.

I've squared each stone by the virtuous square. And plummed them all true, as I shipped them up there. With Compasses I've measured the Masters' Design, And kept in due bounds with His points and His lines. My Blueprints are folded, I've answered his sign.

Each day from life's Quarries, I've hewn out of stone With gavel I've shaped them each one alone, And shipped them above, beyond that bright strand. To build me a house in that Bright Better Land.

The mortar I've made from friendship and love. To be spread with the Master's trowel up above My apron is worn, but its' surface is white, My working tools now lie cold and quiet. My trestle board's bare and I am going tonight.

I AM READY FOR MY LAST DEGREE Respectfully submitted, Carroll C. Arnett, PGM, Chairman

M:.W:. Claude W. Norris, Grand Master, formally opened Grand Lodge in Ample Form on the third degree at 9:55 a.m., convening the 133rd Annual Communication on the above date at the Masonic Temple, Salina, Kansas.

ADDRESS OF THE GRAND MASTER To the officers and members of the H:.W:. Grand Lodge of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons of the Grand Jurisdiction of the State of Kansas on the occasion of the one hundred thirty-third Annual Communication. Brethren: On March 19, 1988, you elevated me to the office of Grand Master of the Masonic fraternity in this great state. Only those who have served you in the capacity in previous years can fully comprehend the honor this office represents, but find words inadequate to express its true meaning. I can only trust that you consider my tenure in office as satisfactory and of benefit to the fraternity. Six days after my installation an all-day session of the Council of Administration consisting of the Grand Master, Deputy Grand Master, Grand Senior Warden and Grand Junior Warden, along with the Grand Senior Deacon, was held in Hoxie, Kansas. This was the first of many such meetings held in various locations to fully discuss the business that comes to the attention of the Grand Lodge officers. From the very first meeting we were convinced that our knowledge of the business conducted by Grand Lodge was very inadequate, and immediately decided a "hands-on approach" was desirable. Our first order of business was to bring an assistant to the Grand Secretary on board so that he could become acquainted with the operation of the office before our present Grand Secretary retires. Our next concern was that of computer costs and accuracy of records. Both of these major concerns we addressed methodically, and we were fortunate to add a brother Mason to the office staff as assistant to the Grand Secretary. Procuring the necessary information needed to secure an in-house computer has progressed very well and should become a reality during this calendar year. Not only will this reduce costs of operation, but should increase accuracy and allow constant access to information rather than the limited access to the mainframe we now use in St. Louis. We have also discussed many of the expenses pertaining to the operation of the Grand Lodge and in many instances have put in place money saving procedures. The Grand Master's jewel costs in excess of thirty-six hundred dollars and it has been decided to forego its presentation by Grand Lodge unless a more economical version can be produced. Otherwise, a Past Grand Master's ring or lapel pin will be provided. Expenses during our Annual Communication have also been scrutinized for savings and several adjustments have also been made in this area. You of the Craft have been generous in giving the Council of Administration an increase in our operating funds during last year's communication, but we feel we should be good stewards of the resources you provide us. The action taken to conserve these resources is continuing and the entire Council has given its unqualified support. Also, my relationship with the Council of Administration has been very enjoyable. Each one assigned duties has responded and performed well, the results of which will be apparent in the next few months. Each senses he is a part of a team, not an individual, and works very well with the others. Thus my gratitude extends not only to them, but to Past Grand Masters who wisely appointed good brothers and to you the Craft for electing them to their respective offices. You have chosen very wisely. "The condition of the Craft" is found to be excellent in most cases, but a few areas of concern are indeed troubling. Membership, or numbers, have been placed as a top priority by many. So high has been that goal, we seem to have forgotten many of the basics of.our fraternity that attract those good men outside our order. During the past year visitations were made to several lodges upon request to resolve disputes. Most involved considerable amounts of money, yet none had a charitable program in place. One lodge with literally hundreds of thousands of dollars in trust could not name one charitable act! One lodge and Eastern Star Chapter quarreled over who would pay for the utilities for a youth group to meet. Another discussed why they could or would not pay the utilities to prevent the cutoff for a deceased Mason's daughter rather than fulfill our obligation. Is it any wonder our public image has eroded? Individual Masons have been more than liberal in their charity work. One Mason in El Dorado provides numerous scholarships—Masons in Wichita made Christmas a time of joy for a brother and his wife and four children who had only twenty dollars for either a Christmas dinner or gifts for the children—another brother made a generous gift to the Amaranth program for diabetes. Undoubtedly there are many more instances of individual charity we are totally unaware of that place Masonry in the forefront in numerous communities. These acts of generosity are as old as Masonry itself, so possibly the basics of our fraternity need to be reestablished in the minds of our brothers and

outsiders. Brotherly love, peace, and harmony would do much to iMprove our image not only to ourselves, but to our friends and neighbors. Pious words alone lead to emptiness, while deeds speak loudly to the non Mason. Due to the questionable health of the choice to receive the Distinguished Service award for 1988, the award was presented on the occasion of the Grand Master's reception in Fort Scott, April 3D, 1988. The distinguished brother, Evart Leon Odell, was escorted to the East. There he was presented the silver bowl awarded to all recipients of the highest award that a Kansas Mason can receive. Brother Odell's many long years of service to the Fraternity, and in particular to his lodge, are noteworthy and outstanding. He has twice served his lodge as Worshipful Master in 1942 and 1970. He has also served as District Deputy Grand Master in 1944 and 1945. Brother Odell has served his lodge in many capacities such as Lecturer, degree work, coaching, and has performed the graveside service on more than four hundred occasions. This added to his stature not only as a member of the fraternity, but as a citizen of the community and his many acts of kindness, friendship, and brotherly love will always be remembered. Since May of this year the Kansas Masonic Home has been under the control of a board consisting of twenty-four trustees with the Grand Master represented by the Deputy Grand Master, Grand Senior and Grand Junior Wardens. Since the Grand Master is not an active participant in the operation of the facility, the report on the condition of the operation has been delegated to the Deputy Grand Master and the budget report to the Grand Junior Warden who is chairman of the Budget Committee. As a review of the financial report appeared ambiguous, I ordered independent audit of the past year of operation and that report is available for your examination. There are 8 copies lying on the table outside. ~ received them just last week and I have highlighted in yellow some of the things that I think can be corrected. At any ratp I did hold the per capita tax for the home until the audit was completed. The price of the Audit was $4,950.00 and I asked the Grand Serectary to disburse that check and send the remainder to the Home, and I would assume that has been accomplished, I might add that discrepencies were found in only one instance which will save the price of the audit many times over. This action was taken to provide the Craft with factual information concerning monies that were provided both by assessment and solicitation made possible through the Grand Lodge membership mailing list. This Grand Master feels that the Grand Lodge officers are duty bound to inform the Craft how their charity dollars are spent and leave it to the Craft to decide if they are spent wisely when such funds are raised in the name of Masonry. The audit was paid for from proceeds of the Per Capita tax before transfer of the funds to the Kansas Masonic Home. I would be remiss if I were not to express a great deal of gratitude to many of my brothers who have served the Grand Lodge this year. My deepest thanks to the Area Deputies, District Deputies, and all of the members of the committees and individuals who have given liberally of their time and means to serve Masonry. Some few of my appointments have been disappointing, but many have given of themselves far and above what is expected. When given duties to perform they did so with so much fervent zeal and competency that Ma so nry has surely prospered because of them. My Committees have performed so well that not once did I ignore their advice, but supported them fully in their deliberations and decisions. Your staff at the Grand Lodge office also deserves a generous portion of praise their unfailing dedication to provide support for the Council and their services to numerous lodges and individual Mason. They perform many of the day-to-day duties the Council of Administration in a very agreeable and profes s ional manner. They indispensiblel Our thanks to them for a job well done.

To py wife Phyllis and my sons Hike and Phillip goes profound and heartfelt thanks for their support in keeping the home fires burning and the business operating during my many, many absences. They were well aware of the honor I received when elected to be Grand Master and made it possible for me to accept. I am truly grateful for all the extra time and effort they exerted to perform not only their duties, but mine as well. While it is repititious, I shall again express my gratitude to the Craft for the honor of serving as Grand Master for the past year. May the future prove bright for Masonry as the gavel is passed to R:.W:. Robert M. Nease and his fellow officers. May you as individuals and brother Masons enjoy good health, prosperity, and rewarding fellowship in the Masonic family for years to come. The Past Grand Masters in their wisdom have seen fit to appoint Brothers in the Grand Lodge line who have assumed successfully the office of the Council of Administration. You of the craft have been wise enough to elect them to that office. This year I have had the pleasure of serving with those brothers you have so well provided for me. We have held numerous meetings throughout the year. I firmly believe that because of that at this very moment that even the Grand Senior Deacon is well enough informed that he can step into the Grand Master's chair and function quite well. I would commend them on their activities. I would commend them to you as brothers ready to lead and are more than willing to lead. The programs you see in the hallway out here is one nf those things you take for granted. I encourage you to join them. You know the Grand Lodge Officers can only do so much. They can get a program together, but it takes the individual lodges and the Masters of the lodges to put those programs to work. Grand Lodge cannot do it for them. Neither can the District Deputies. I am reminded of the old basset hound we have in Fort Scott, who, in hot July weather, would find himself laying on the sidewalk and when the sun rose it got so hot he could hardly stand it. Instead of moving to the shade he'd lay on the sidewalk and howl, too lazy to move. I would hope that when you come back next year you have a legitimate complaint because you have worked and have a problem. But, I also hope that the Grand Master, the Grand Lodge Officers and the Area and District Deputies would not have to listen to your complaints when you have made no effort to help yourselves. I would just salute my wonderful officers and the wonderful people in Masonry and I hope that many good Brother Masons listen, and I am talking to them right now, you are the brothers that I have met as I traveled all over Kansas. You are the backbone, you are the strength, you are the guiding force and it is up to you. to make Masonry work in Kansas. Fraternally yours, CLAUDE W.

Addison Craft Irby Our distinguished friend. Brother, and beloved Past Grand Master was born to Pleasant Eugene and Lenora McMullen Irby on August 30, 1905, in the County of Grenada, Holly Springs, Mississippi. He was the third of six children born to an ardent Mason. Early in his life our Most Worshipful Sir displayed an abundance of talent and capacity for work. Although he first demonstrated a musical ability, it was medicine that found his life's ambition and work. His musical talent did not, however, go to waste as he used it to good advantage to assist in raising needed capital in pursuit of his degree in medicine. After graduation from high school in Holly Springs at sixteen years of age, he graduated from "01'Miss" just four years later at the age of twenty. Then it was on the Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois, where eight years later he became Dr. Irby. He interned at Sydenham Hospital, Baltimore, Maryland.

After marriage he moved to Oklahoma City and joined the staff of St. Anthony's Hospital. Then to Montague County, Texas. The depression was then upon us, but he continued on for by now sons Jim (1931) and Kenneth (1936) were on the scene and very much a part of the family life. It was indeed a fortunate day for Kansas and Kansas Masonry when our dear Brother chose Kansas as their next, and, as we now know, last home. The eventual association with another outstanding Kansas Mason, Past Grand Master and physician, M:.W:. Dr. Claude F. Young, signaled even greater things for Kansas. World War II found him as Lieutenant Commander Irby for the duration. ing he directed his effort toward pediatrics.

Upon return-

All of this was preceeded by his petitioning Freemasonry in 1941. From his initiation April 11, 1941, he seemed destined to become a Grand Master of Masons. Suffice it to say he joined nearly all appendant and concordant bodies. From Past Master of Rising Sun Lodge he continued on the KYCH. (York Rite in October 18, 1949; St. Justin Concalve Red Cross of Constantine, 1957; Olive Chapter OES No. 13, 1942; Mirza Temple AAONMS in Pittsburg, Scottish Rite Bodies, 1941; KCCH, 1949; and Coroneted a 33 ", October 20, 1959.) He was a man and Brother who loved the great outdoors. How he enjoyed being at Rock Springs with us. I can personally testify that he remained a strong swimmer well past his seventies. He was a cheerful person who always seemed to enjoy life. Yet after retirement, he was called to an Indian Reservation in Minnesota, not to gain, but to serve. I first met the good Brother thirty-two years ago. This was during our centennial in 1956. He was Grand Senior Deacon. The thing that I remember most as a young Senior Warden of my Lodge was his determinaton. Some sixty-six distingushed guests, our own Past Grand Masters, our then Worthy Grand Matron and Patron, all had to be introduced. The Grand Marshal, also destined to become a Past Grand Master, as it was M:.W:. Ben W. Graybill, was indeed busy. It was quite obvious Dr. A. C. was having a problem; either his leg or ankle was causing him pain, but he would not give in to it and continued on with the ceremonies. We were all saddened when the news reached us Monday, May 12, 1986, that his life on this earth had ended. Yet I could not let this sadness last for long, for I know he would . not want it to be so. I can just imagine if he could speak to mortal ears this very moment he might say, "Thank you for coming, thank you for honoring me, it is probably more than I deserve, but it is sincerely appreciated. I hope that in some small way my life has made your life better and richer. Now be on your way and to building a happy future." The graveside sented.

After the ceremony the Grand Master called on the Grand Secretary and other Grand Lodge officers for remarks. It was noted that this crowd'included Kansans from virtually the four points of the state. A large number of lodges from the immediate area were represented as well. The Grand Master highly complimented the brethren on their beautiful new temple which is small, but very functional and neat, and very appropriate for a community of this size. The decorations are very tasteful and the furnishings comfortable. The Grand Master noted the presence of members of the Order of Eastern Star and appendant orders and recognized them and praised them for their continued efforts in behalf of the symbolic lodges of the state.

Proceedings of the

March

The Grand Secretary was called upon to give a brief Masonic history of M:.W:. Ben W. Graybill, and the Grand Secretary did so quoting from the Proceedings of 1964 and his biography contained therein. M:.W:. BEN W. GRAYBILL OUR NEWLY INSTALLED GRAND MASTER Ben Wilkerson Graybill was born August 30, 1901, in Kansas City, Kansas. He attended grade and some high school there. Boys born around the turn of the century or some time before, were the right age for World War I and M:.W:. Graybill who enlisted on April 28, 1917, and was sworn in on May 2, 1917, became of the first to "sign up." If the arithmetic is correct, he was less than sixteen years of age, and one of the youngest, if not the youngest, Kansas veteran of World War I. He also had a record of service with the Canadian Army. After Military service, he became a supervisor in food processing plants in his home town; then was in the wholesale coal business for eleven years before entering the Railway Mail Service in 1935. The mail service became his life work and he worked diligently and earned progression through the several grades in the postal department until he became the field service office and the personal representative of the regional director with supervision over more than two hundred post offices in eastern Kansas. He took his retirement from the postal service in Hay of 1962 in order to devote his full time to service in the Grand Lodge. Masonically he received his degrees in Roger E. Kansas, in 1922, and the Consistory degrees February Shrine (KCK) in May, 1923, and is a life member of York Rite bodies in Olathe, Kansas. He received the in York Rite.

Sherman Lodge No. 369, Kansas City, 12, 1923. He also joined Abdallah the temple. He is a member of the 32" KCCH in Scottish Rite and KYCH

His real Masonic activity dates from the organization of Old Mission Lodge No.153 in Johnson County in 1950, in which M:.W:. Graybill has a prominent part. He served as Master of the lodge in 1953, and as Secretary on 1954 and 1955. It was during this time that plans for the fine Old Mission Temple were made and the beautiful temple financed and built. He served as director and president of the Old Mission Building Corporation which shouldered a heavy financial burden and then retired practically all of it in an orderly manner. Old Mission Lodge now has over eight hundred members and is one of the most active lodges in our Grand Jurisdiction. Brother Graybill's influence and guiding hand have been felt in many ways in all of this outstanding lodge's growth and development. In all of this period he was ablely supported and encouraged by his wife, the late Carmen Beaumont Graybill, who had been his childhood sweetheart and to whom he was married on August 23, 1921. She passed away on February 9, 1962. M:.W:. Graybill's first activity in the Grand Lodge was in the office of District Grand Master in 1954 and Grand Marshal in the Centennial year of 1955 during which time the conerstone of Old Mission's temple was laid by Grand Master M:.W:. Scott E. Kelsey. Since that time he has served as Chairman of the Credentials Committee of Grand Lodge in 1957 and 1958, then as Grand Senior Deacon in 1959, from which station he began the progression that resulted in his installation as Grand Master during the closing ceremonies of the 107th Annual communication of Grand Lodge. On February 12, 1963, M:.W:. GaybiU was united in marriage with Mrs. Pearl McCullough Henry, a longtime friend of the Graybill family, and they now live at 2652 Minnesota, Kansas City, Kansas. H:.W:. Graybill brings to the Grand Lodge a fine background of business experience as an executive of the postal service and a highly successful Masonic career in Old Mission Lodge and in the Grand Lodge of Kansas. He is a devoted servant of the Craft and should provide energetic and capable leadership during the coming year. A dear friend and mentor who will be missed. We gather this day to honor his memory and mark his grave as a Past Grand Master. Following the Grand Secretary, M:.W:. Robert D. Caplinger, Past Grand Master, 1971, was called upon. M:.W:. Caplinger recounted many of his experiences with Ben Graybill and his many fine qualities of character. Noting he made friends easily and in turn encouraged more of his friends to become friends with former strangers. He cited Ben's executive ability, and his many examples of fine periences encountered while working with him.

H:.W:. Caplinger noted it was during his administration that M:.W:. Charles S. McGinness, PGM, and Grand Secretary had resigned. During this difficult period, "It would have been difficult if not impossible without the capable assistance of M:.W:. Graybill." He appointed M:.W:. Graybill as Grand Secretary on May 13, 1971, serving in this appointment until July 31, 1971. He was encouraged to stay in this office, but could not because of family committments. His capable assistance and long friendship, together with the many trips they made all the way from Canada to Mexico, were reviewed with favor and fond memories. M:.W:. Caplinger cited M:.W:.

As a lover of woodworking, he spent many hours in his shop at home crafting gifts that he delighted in giving to his friends. In the summer, his neighbors were often surprised to see him mowing their lawns and edging sidewalks. In the winter, Dick would be seen blowing snow from neighborhood driveways and walks. Somehow, he managed to find time to give careful attention to his own yardwork, flower planting, and just plain enjoyed adding to the outdoors that surrounded home.

Hope where they resided until Richard was twelve years of age. They then moved to Wichita where he. attended public schools. After graduating from high school, he enrolled in Wichita State University. He attended one year, and was drafted into the service where he spent the next three years in the Ground Crew of the United States Air Force. He spent approximately two years in the South Pacific Theater with the final assignment on the Island of Okinawa. After being discharged from the service, he returned to Wichita State University and received his degree. In 1950, he was united in marriage with Elizabeth C. Dahmer. After traveling and selling office supplies for four years, he entered the Real Estate Mortgage and Insurance business with the Porter Mortgage Company and was with that firm for the next

Honorable Mark Schroede, Chairman of Sedgwick County Commissioners, Most Worshipful Brother Claude Norris, Grand Master of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Kansas Masons, friends and brethren: One hundred years ago, to be exact, our counterparts assembled at this place for the purpose of performing cornerstone services for the magnificent structure. Records indicate that "far sighted local residents chose to construct a grand court house intending that it should last a hundred years." When the facility designed by W. R. McPherson was first erected, its dimensions were considered unusually grand for a public building in those days. It cost taxpayers a whopping $250,000.00 and measured 152 feet by 244 feet with the top of the dome reaching 155 feet above the ground. The land was donated by Darius and Julia Munger. It was designed in the Romanesque style, re-introducing the use of the round arch for openings and decorations. The exterior walls were reinforced by brick and mortar and the foundations were made seven feet thick. In 1954 a major portion of the tower had to be removed due to deterioration. Bidding for the foundation contract and that of the building proper were dealt with separately. The bids for the foundation ranged from $8,820.00 to $13,900.00. The winning bid provided for a foundation of Yates Center Stone. The contract for the main portion of the structure was especially lucrative. Each bid proposed a particular type of stone and the contractors gambled on guessing accurately the type of stone to be chosen by the commissioners who were - Chairman, J. H. Aley, Tom Randall, and L. A. Wilson. Bids came in from as far away as Peoria, Illinois and Warrensburg, Missouri.

On August 30, 1888 the Board chose Grousecreek Stone thereby eliminating most of the bids which ranged from $81,450.00 to $247,562.00. Yates Center Stone and Grousecreek Stone were chosen because of superior quality relative to weather conditions. The reality of cost over-runs existed even then as the records show that the commissioners called a special election which was held on November 6, 1888 by which an additional $50,000.00 of general obligation bonds were approved. The court rooms were to be furnished in antique oak. Statuaries were to adorn gables and projections of the building and all the utilitarian purposes to be found in a court house were provided. The early settlers did have the foresight to provided a structure that would endure the elements but not the foresight to anticipate the enormous growth of the area and in 1959 the third Sedgwick County Courthouse was opened. According to the records of that auspicious event in 1888, Wichita Lodge #99 played a prominent role in the ceremonies. The procession to the courthouse was led by a carriage in which Grand Master, Watson Lamb, the city's chief executive officer. Honorable J. P. Allen and the orator of the occasion, J. R. Hallowell were seated. As Masons here assembled should know a cornerstone is tested by the square, level, and plumb to prove the soundness of the construction in its beginning. The Fraternity interprets to moral uses of the square, level, and plumb as squaring our actions by the square of virtue, the level demonstrates equality, and the plumb teaches rectitude of conduct. Having therefore attempted to insure the building will be sound structurally and will be used for the good and the benefit of all, we then consecrate it by corn, an emblem of plenty, wine, an emblem of joy and gladness, and oil, an emblem of peace. Having, with proper ceremony, re-dedicated this cornerstone, we again acknowledge the foresight of those hardy settlers and their vision and pay tribute to them and, of course, those valiant taxpayers without whom \iery little is possible - then or now. The brethren were then escorted inside the building where the ancient ceremony of the cornerstone and placement of the cornerstone was conducted because of structural needs. No further business appearing, Grand Lodge was then declared closed. Claude W. Norris Grand Master ATTEST: Albert 0. Arnold, Jr. Grand Secretary

REPORT OF THE GRAND SECRETARY R:.W:. Albert 0. Arnold, Jr., Grand Secretary, gave the following report, which, on his motion, was received and referred to the Reports of Grand Officers Committee. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge AF & AM of Kansas Report is submitted in accordance with Constitution laws 2-110 and 2-111 of the Laws of Kansas Masonry.

ARTICLE VI, Section 9 and by-

Annual Reports One year ago our experience with regards to returns of the Annual Reports was very encouraging. All were on time and in reasonably good form. Naturally we hoped this would continue and further remarks in this connection be unnecessary, but this was not to be. Several logical excuses were received and extentions given. Illnesses and personal emergencies were added to this year by the death of one of the secretarys. Personal calls were made to those having delinquent reports. We believe all will have reported in time to be included in the Annual Communication. Please do remember the importance of timely reporting. Your reports are due January lOth of each year. Constitutional Amendment During our last Annual Communication an amendment was sustained on the floor and subsquently fowarded to the Lodges in accordance with the structures of our Laws. (ARTICLE XI, Section 7) Four months later, as also required in our laws, (3-617) thirty-nine lodges had not made report. Certified mail was forwarded after notifying our Grand Master. He in turn instructed the cost of this mailing be forwarded to the delinquent lodges. I now report the lodges have sustained the proposition as presented at our last Annual Communication, to ARTICLE III, Section 2, and ARTICLE VI, Section 13. Insurance and Reappraisal In late spring calls started being received asking information concerning insurance coverage. Generally, liability was of prime concern. The complaint was increased costs. I could only remind the callers we have tried unsuccessfully on three occasions to introduce a blanket program, but that each time they were rejected. Our great concern in this area has to do with reappraisal. Only the uninformed could expect anything but increases. With those increases will come the additional cost for insurance. Information concerning reappraisal and how it will affect lodges is rather sketchy as of this writing. Bank Requests for ID Numbers We did not keep an exact account of the number of calls we have received in this instance, but at least twelve or fourteen have reported requests from IRS. You are not alone as your Grand Lodge has experienced the same thing. Our investigation into the matter indicates an effort by some person trying to shorten organizational titles in order to meet certain spacing problems found on forms and address labels may have caused this problem. Our advice is to answer these requests promptly and by all means with accurate information. Also, please keep us advised. Your Grand Lodge Library and Museum We are pleased to note the following donations to our library-and museum. Lapel emblem and key holder commemorating the bicentennial 1888-1988 of New South Wales - From the Grand Lodge of New South Wales. Memorabilia from the now Rayenesford.

As we have often said, if you have and item and question it's worth or usuability, please contact the Grand Lodge office for evaluation. Many valuable and historical items have been destroyed or lost through lack of knowledge or care. Please give us a call if you find such an item. Assistant Grand Secretary As we already heard from our Grand Master and in the October edition of the Kansas Mason, after a lengthy search and much deliberation, W:. A. Kevin Kobler, a Past Master of Millbrook Lodge No. 281 of Hill City, was selected. He is a graduate of Fort Hays State with a degree in accounting. His devotion to the order and knowledge of the Craft will be a distinct asset. Computerization and Addresses Each day we are continuing to increase our data storage in house. the process completed later this year.

We hope to have

Each year we keep expecting a decline in the number of our members who move their residences. But 1988 was not to be the year. Forty-one members moved each and every day of last year. This included Saturdays, Sundays and Holidays. We again make an urgent plea for you as individuals to notify your secretaries immediately upon moving. Likewise, Brother Secretaries, please do no wait until year end to make report. Remember we are charged 30 cents for each return of the Kansas Mason or any second class mail. This can occur up to three times before the post office deletes them. Please also remember, three lines are required with street name or number of post office box or route and box number, and of course, the all important zip code. We still believe this to be the single most expensive operation we perform in your behalf. Dual/Plural Members No doubt you would rather hear nothing more about this subject. I share in that feeling. Yet I must report still another Grand Jurisdiction has our laws in this regard under study. I have little encouagement to indicate they will not withdraw dual memberships with Kansas. Those who may have a dual membership with North Carolina will be allowed to retain them, but future additions will not be permitted, pending their further investigation. I have been promised a more detailed explanation, but to date it has not been received. Plural membership, you will remember, are those within the Jurisdiction of Kansas. Some improvement is noted with the records being forwarded, but I must honestly say they are still far from desirable. Again and again my Brothers, I ask that you write or call before taking action on either dual or plural memberships. Per Capita Tax and Special Assesment In spite of our efforts to publicize the action taken on the floor of Grand Lodge last year, many failed to receive or understand the amendment. In amending by-law 2-301, many failed to read the last sentence of that law. It says: "Provided that any increase in the per capita tax shall become effective on the Lodge roll of membership determined on December 31 the following year." I have no doubt that many lodges have suddenly found themselves with a "windfall". Consumer Protection A call and letter was received from our Ottawa Lodge No. 18. This had to do with a purchase made by the Brother in charge of maintenance as the result of a phone solicitation. The item in question was received and paid for. But it was determined the price was actually more than charged by a local supplier, so the second request for an order was refused. This did not stop the sender. Naturally the product was returned. Then a succession of bills were forwarded to the Lodge along with past due notices and threats to take legal action. The Lodge did forward copies of payment and records including copies of the remitted check, but all to no avail. So it was, this matter was referred to your Grand Lodge. In turn the Grand Master instructed this office to forward this matter to our Jurisprudence Committee. This committee recommended that we take our information and carry it to the Attorney General. This we did and we were directed to the Consumer Protection Division. This department did take action and we believe this has ended this episode. We do urge you to be cautious in all transactions.

Estimation of Income and Expenses On the following pages you will find these tables. Please read them carefully and if there are questions please advise. The estimation of income and expenses carries the previous two years experience for your evaluation. You will also note that the Grand Secretary's allowance has been combined with the Grand Officers travel expense. Perhaps it goes without saying, but our continuing losses are the real problem. Membership Statistics Near the end of the Advanced Report you will find the statistics of last years work. There was activity, but as you will note, our problem with Entered Apprentices who do not finish their work continues. Appreciation and Thanks Strange as it may seem to many of you, this is quite often the most difficult part of my report. First is the possibility that I will forget some deserving Brother or committee and secondly, that this part of my report would be taken as a meaningless response to those who have done so much for so little. This year a very tight budget was strained even further when in answer to the call of the Craft, Special Communications were far more in number than we could otherwise anticipate. Difficulties in other areas this year have increased costs and the work of the Council of Administration. But, rest assured they have proven to be equal to the task. I greatly appreciate the actions of our Grand Master and this Council and for their patience and deep concerns for our beloved Fraternity. They certainly deserve our highest commendations. The Chairmen and committees of this Grand Jurisdiction are always outstanding and believe me this year is no exception. Our thanks and appreciaton. Brethren we could never do it without you. To a hardworking staff from our new Assistant to those in a part time capacity, thank you again and again. As we are slowly but surely changing the operation to conform with increasing computer operation, I report they are all taking it in stride, although we have experienced many frustrating moments. They are real troupers. So I must again tell you their names and in doing so say a personal word of appreciation to W:. Brother Kevin Kobler, Sisters Rachael Gilbert and Becky Wasson, to Brother Mark Stephenson and to Jean Rader, as it is so often said, the right arm of your Grand Secretary and then some. Finally to all of you my Brethren, thank you again and again for allowing us to work with and for you. All those who have been appointed to committees, we do have your stationary on the table in the outer hall. Please do pick it up and take it with you, or if you can, some friends' and neighbors'. All those packages represent dollars. There are several items of business I wish to bring before you. (1) PER CAPITA TAX & ASSESSMENT - Apparently many of you when you voted and some did collect a special assessment.

misunderstood

last year

(2) WITH REGARD TO REPRAISAL - Many questions have been fowarded to our office. As a lodge, you had 18 days to respond. We would like to say respond to each and everyone of you, if at all possible. We would like to suggest that you contact each and every one of your legislators and become personally aquainted with them. We need to try to get the Board of Tax Appeals to take our property off the rolls but that's something to work again through our legislators. We have appealed to them, but it is a simple fact that I reported to you last year - "we voted for it, or at least a major portion of Kansas voted for repraisal." So, there is only one thing we can do and that is to hope we have a chance to see that it is equalized and fair. Turn to page 39. Total of income and expenditures. We have listed the budget, giving three years comparision, so that you can see we are in a very tight situtation. I particularly want to call to your attention the travel allowance of the Grand Secretary has been revoked and. is now included with the Grand Officers Travel under item 5250. Although it appears to be an increase it really wasn't that much of an increase. Also, there was not a special assessment this year for the Kansas Masonic Home. Our budget was very tight. You do have, of course, an increase coming this next December, a total

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC SCHOOLS W:. John A. Schowalter, Chairman, submitted motion was accepted:

the

following

report

which, on

his

To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: Your Public Schools Committee has again this year conducted a statewide scholarship essay contest for juniors and seniors in the public high schools of Kansas, and promoted American Heritage--Public Schools Month. These programs were started some years ago and have been continued each year. A special book distribution program that was started last year, continued this year. Also this year, several members of this committee participated in the Area Meetings across the state. This gave us some excellent opportunities to talk to local lodge leaders about our public schools programs. This committee is authorized and its responsibilities described in Section 2-124C of the Grand Lodge By-Laws. It is charges to "...develop programs..." and to "...guide and advise the Grand Lodge in supporting and strengthening the free public schools system..." ESSAY CONTEST The topic of the 1988 Essay contest was "My Approach to Drug Abuse". This subject proved to be a popular topic producing some very good essays. Participation was also good with entries from 120 girls and 86 boys, each winners of local lodge contests. Funds for an increase in the amount of the scholarship awards were still not available so they remained the same as they have been for the past several years, that is: SI,000 for first place; S700 for second; S500 for third; $300 for fourth; and $100 for fifth place for each boy and girl winner. There were also three Honorable Mention in each category that carried no scholarship award. The winners of the 1988 Essay Contest are:

Brothers Royal B. Brown of Leavenworth, Conrad F. Johnson of Sabetha, and Arris H. Johnson, PGM, of Hays assisted the committee again this year serving as judges for the Essay Contest. AMERICAN HERITAGE—PUBLIC SCHOOLS MONTH On February 2, 1989, the Honorable Mike Hayden, Governor of Kansas, proclaimed the month of February, 1989, to be observed as American Heritage--Public Schools Month in Kansas. A letter was sent to all lodges enlisting their support and encouraging them to hold a special program or project during February in celebration of American Heritage-Public Schools Month. SPECIAL PROJECT This year, the committee continued the special project that was begun in 1987 of presenting copies of the book Dynamic Freedoms, published by the Scottish Rite, to all of the high school and public libraries in Kansas. Delivery of books to the high school libraries is complete. However, due to some unavoidable delays, delivery of books to the public libraries is not complete as of the Grand Lodge session. We hope to have these deliveries made in the near future. RECOMMENDATION This committee still believes that there is a definite need to increase the number of scholarship awards for the Essay Contest. Therefore, we again recommend that the number of scholarship awards be increased to include a sixth place and that the other awards be adjusted as follows: First Place, $1,000; Second Place, $800; Third Place, $600; Fourth Place $400; Fifth Place, $200; and Sixth Place, $100 each in the separate girls and boys contests CONCLUSION Me want to thank our Grand Master, M:.W:. Claude W. Norris, for giving us this opportunity to serve the Craft, and for his continuing support throughout the year. R:.W:. Albert 0. Arnold, Jr., Grand Secretary, and his staff assist this committee a great deal; and we want to thank them. Also, a special thanks to our Essay Contest judges for their valuable service. Finally, Brethren, as we traveled across the state last spring to the Area Meetings, one thing became apparent. That, generally, the lodges that were active and in good shape had an active, on-going Public Schools Programs in place; and the lodges that were "treading water", so to speak, did not.

By this, we do not mean to imply that an active public schools program will be the salvation of a lodge. However, it certainly cannot hurt. Such a program will increase activity and interest among the membership as well as increase interest in and respect for a lodge in the community. If your lodge has not put an active public school program in place, we hope that you will do so during the coming year. We believe that you will find it rewarding. John A. Schowalter, Chairman.

Freemasonry is much more in the news today than in past generations. .Increased ability in communicaitons and travel make it all the more important to be able to re-, cognize and fraternalize with brother Freemasons of whatever culture,- race or religion they may be. Within the USA there is a growing awareness of the value of Prince Hall Masonry and the need to address, in the light of new understandings of "recognition" and fraternity, our situation. We are pleased to give you some review of the work of this Committee this year: COLORADO: A request from a publishing firm asking our help in promotion of a volume and "expose" of "Behind tlie Masonic Curtain: The Soviet Attack on Masonry". We did not have a copy of the book so as to personally read and review it. We took no action.

MISSOURI: An inquiry from our Grand Junior Warden to investigate the "Universal Church World Headquarters" of Independence, Missouri which listed the Davidic Kingdom as one of its' adherents. We could find no information, through legimate channels, on this group. OREGON: We received information for the "Supreme Executive Council" of the "Order of REDALJIM" - A Masonically oriented organization for young adults to be formed on college campus settings. It stated that both the Grand Master and the SGIG in Oregon were giving this group strong support. TENNESSEE: We have official notice that dual membership was recinded. It did have a grandfather clause but allows no new dual membership. Note: We have verbal indications from North Carolina that they may recind all dual membership with our Grand Jurisdiction. BRAZIL: We are happy to report that our relationship with Grand Lodge Hato Grosso has been settled and they sent a certificate naming James Wayne Pipkin as their Grand Representative (since he was appointed by this Grand Lodge in 1965). We are glad that we followed through on this matter and Brother Wayne has a certificate. Note: If any of the Kansas Brethren have a Grand Representative appointment and have never received a certificate please communicate with our Grand Secretary and this Committee will see what we can do. We received Fraternal Greetings on July Fourth from our Masonic Brethren of Grand Lodge of Sao Paulo sent by Erwin Seignemartin, PGM, Grand Secretary. Among other things he stated: "The holiday of the independence of the United States is not to be considered a regional event but rather an occurrence which set an example of a people determined to earn a place among nations which have a banner: Independence and Sovereignty". CANADA: We were informed that the irregular Grand Lodge of France has undertaken to form a new Grand Lodge in Quebec called the Grand Lodge-France Canada or Grand Lodge Francophone-Canada. The Grand Lodge of Quebec AF & AM is the only regular Masonry in Quebec. COLUMBIA: The Grand Lodge of Cartagena has named Hurl but K. Graves as their Grand Representative near Grand Lodge of Kansas. We are glad to keep in communication with them. DENMARK: We' received a letter of rules governing means of identification of visitors to the lodges under the Grand Lodge of Denmark. They are firm and you should always inquire of our Grand Secretary before assuming you will or can visit a foreign Grand Lodge. In passing we extend appreciation of Past Grand Master Erik Kay-Hansen for his years of service as Grand Master and wish their new Grand Master, Erik F. Qvist long tenure in office. GREECE: We received due and timely warning that members of the irregular "National Grand Lodge of Greece" may be attempting to visit US Lodges. The regular lodge is GRAND LODGE OF GREECE AF& AM. We printed warning in the Kansas Mason. We note that the GENERAL GRAND CHAPTER OF ROYAL ARCH MASONS INTERNATIONAL withdrew fellowship from Grand Chapter of Royal Arch Masons in Greece due to the fact that the Greek Royal Arch is deeply involved in Irregular Masonry. ITALY: This Committee maintains fraternal relations with the Italy. It is considered opinion that they are a Regular Grand Lodge.

LEBANON: We were glad to be supportive of Hutchinson Lodge No. 445 in their desire to put all three degrees on Wadih A. Hajj from Beirut. He had a first degree from "Solomon Lodge Delta Grand Lodge Lebanon, but this connection with a Lodge with whom we have no Fraternal Relationship should not keep him from petitioning No. 445. MEXICO: As per usual we did not respond favorably to a request for funds from a family in Mexico City who claimed family connections with a former member of a Kansas Lodge. It was a complicated document and we appreciate the service of Serge A. Hanson #17 in translation and interpretation. It was a request to rebuild a facility damaged in a recent earthquake in Mexico City.

Saturday, August 20, 1988 the Ritualistic Committee and the Grand Lecturers met in a joint meeting in the hall of Salina Lodge #60. The meeting was called to order by the chairman with the invocation being given by Brother Dwight Burton. Those in attendance besides the committee members and most of the Grand Lecturers were the Grand Master, M:.W:. Claude Norris, M:.W:. J. Fred Williamson, PGM, R:.W:. Robert Nease, Deputy Grand Master, R:.W:. Don Robinett, Grand Senior Warden, R:.W:. Conrad Johnson, Grand Junior Warden and several of the District Lecturers. Opening remarks were made by the Grand Master who thanked the Committee members, the Grand Lecturers and the District Lecturers for their dedication and their contributions to the ritualistic program. The following were explained and discussed: 1. The proposed change in by-law 3-616. 2. Clarification of Prefect attendance Certificates, explained by R:.W:. Ronald White. Hereafter the certificates would show continous years, not total years. 3. Minor changes in the District Meeting format were presented and explained. The Grand Lecturers were given their assignments for the up coming Schools of Instruction. The rest of the day was spent in a reveiw and practice of the ritual. On November 16, 1988 the Grand Master requested the Ritualistic Committee to examine the ritualistic proficiency of Pyramid Lodge UD, which is petitioning for a Charter. A committee consisting of R:.W:. David Snyder, Chairman, R:.W:. Clifford Trax, and R:.W:. Frank Moore, Grand Lecturers were appointed. They met with the Worshipful Master and officers of Pyramid Lodge UD on December 13, 1988. As a result of their examination it is the recommendation of the Ritualistic Committee that Pyramid Lodge UD be deemed proficient in the Ritual of the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of Kansas. The weatherman with few exceptions has smiled on our Grand Lecturers in their travels this year. To the best of our knowledge none of the schools had to be canceled because of bad weather. However, as R:.W:. Richard Haefele, Grand Lecturer, observed in one of his reports, the same faces show up all the time, very few new ones. Those who need the instructions, such as the current officers, for one reason or another aren't there. Statistics, unfortunately prove his point. Of those officers who should be answering roll call 53.6% did so. Taking a closer look, only 69.5J of the Masters answered both roll calls, SW's 61.2%, JW's 58.2%, See's 67.6%, SD's 53.6%, JD's 49.1, SS's 43.7%, JS's 38.6%, and T's 42.1%. The following Lodges had no officer representation at this year's Schools of Instructions. #274 Weir # 69 Altamont #279 Dighton #115 Uniontown #288 Hope #148 Wakenney #307 Herrington #166 Randolph #326 Horton #167 Larned #352 Tribune #184 Phillipsburg #354 Summerfield (12 Years) #204 Downs #361 Geneseo #214 Sincerity #367 Plains #261 Mulberry #390 Natoma #264 Logan #429 Burdick #266 Nortonville And we wonder what's happening to our lodges.

However, there is a plus sign in this report. One District, #38 is to be complimented on their outstanding officer representation at their District School of Instruction in Wichita on January 7th. 126 Master Masons were present for the morning roll call and 108 for the afternoon roll call. Of the 9 lodges in District #38, eight chartered lodges and one Lodge UD, seven lodges had perfect officer attendance at both roll calls. # 57 York Albert Pike # 86 Sunflower Bestor G.

Their efforts have been well received by those who have endeavored to participate in the programs. It is through each of you that the purity of our ritual will be perpetuated and we thank you for your efforts.

To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge AF & AM of Kansas: H:.W:. Claude has asked that I make the report on the Kansas Masonic Home as I have been his liaison person this past year. I will not endeavor to make a report of the complete operations and functions of the home, but I will summerize some of the happenings since the re-structuring of the Board of Trustees. As you know the Board was reorganized to consist of twenty-four members. One each from the twelve Masonic Areas: three elected at last years Grand Lodge session, the Deputy Grand Master, the Grand Senior Warden, the Grand Junior Warden and six members of the Order of Eastern Star. Seven of these trustees to be elected as the executive committee with all actions and/or decisions to be approved by a majority of the trustees before being implemented.

One of the first actions taken was that of committee assignments. A trustee was assigned as chairman of each committee. Committee members need not be trustees, but must be a Master Mason or a member of the Order of Eastern Star. These committees are: Admission and Discharge, Budget and Finance, Investments, Physicial Plant, Personnel, Development and planning and a special committee to revise the by-laws. We are very fortunate to have the diversity of such a wide field of professional people as we have on the Board of Trustees, Rest Home Administrators, Insurance and Investment Personnel, nurses. County Commissioners, a medical doctor and several other fields. With this caliber of qualified persons, we have good sound functioning committees. These committees have met and presented to the trustees many recommendations, several of which have been acted upon. Some of the more important are those items needed for the safety of our residents and those needed to comply with local, state and federal standards. The Physical Plant Committee with Brother Jerry Stotler of Dodge City serving as chairman, has been actively engaged in attempting to update the entire heating system. Much of this work has been accomplished with the professional assistance of Brother Charles Randle of Salina. Brother Randle has many years experience in the heating business and volunteered his services by supervising the work on the boilers. The work of the physical plant committee is one of ongoing activities. Many things are still to be accomplished. As with all things, time is needed to make these accomplishments. The Investment Committee with Merlin Grundy serving as chairman, has made several changes on our investments, thus resulting in more from them. The Personnel Committee with Brother Don Hanson serving as chairman, recommended the raising of the salary of the nurses in the Heath Care Center. This was needed to bring their salary more closely in line with that being paid by local hospitals. This recommendation was approved by the trustees and there was almost immediate results shown in the morale of those involved. Since this action there has been much less turnover in the nursing staff. There have been no changes made in administrative personnel or salaries to date. A new program of using "Blister Packs" of drugs was implemented. This change results in the return of unused drugs being made, as the blister pack is individual packed pills and capsules. A letter was sent to local pharmacies for bids, with there being no change in pharmacies being made. (Damm Pharmacies being retained.) Last month the trustees voted to remove the moritorium on private pay residents in the west side. This will result in the use of five or six additional rooms being used in the north wing of the west side. There will be no change made at this time regarding charitable residents being admitted. There are many things still needed before everything will be going in an upward direction, but my brethren, I feel that our Kansas Masonic Home is definitely on an upward trend. There are several projects being looked into for the betterment of the Kansas Masonic Home and its' residents. I would not at this time go into detail on them. Following a recent independent audit, there are some items which I am sure will be looked into by the trustees, and which I am sure might be cost saving. I would say in closing that I have complete confidence in the Board of Trustees of the Kansas Masonic Home and feel the overall management is in good hands under their supervision. I have not gone into any financial report of the home as I believe Raum, the Secretary-Treasurer is to cover this in his report.

M:.W:. Thomas

Let us each continue our support to the Kansas Masonic Home and its' residents. Respectfully submitted, Robert M. Nease Deputy Grand Master

REPORT OF THE BUDGET AND FINANCE COMMITTEE OF THF KANSAS MASONIC HOMF As of this writing no approved budget is available to present to the Grand Lodge from the Kansas Masonic Home Board and Trustees. The budget which the Committee presented to the Home Board and Trustees was rejected. They intend to obtain one by other means. The Budget Committee found that the article written in the Kansas Mason concerning the Kansas Masonic Home did not show any revenue for capital outlay (expenditures for repair of the buildings, etc.). As the committee prepared the budget we included $300,000.00 for this expense and by cutting unnecessary costs we were then able to approximately double the proposed expectations as expressed in the Kansas Mason article. The committee wishes to thank the Board for the privilege of trying to utilize our revenue to a better and more conservative manner. We learned more about Freemasonry so all was not lost by the budget being rejected. For your consideration, we present our recommendations to the Board and Trustees as they received them. Since the budget was not accepted we did not include the budget. A copy may be found in the Grand Secretary's office for your inspection. By the time you on this issue.

read this our Grand Master will be able to inform you more clearly BUDGET AND FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT

The Budget and Finance Committee consisted of: Conrad F.Johnson, Chairman Robert G. Frederick Joan Farrar Dr. Gilbert A. Farmer Merle D. Bradley Their assignment was to prepare a budget for the 1989 and the next four years following.

Kansas Masonic Home for the year

This has been a difficult task for the following reasons: (1). The preparation of any budget should underwrite a planned program. There was no such program. (2). A budget must express the funds available for any promotion of the program. Unless the Endowment Funds are used, sufficient funds are not available to finance the proper needs of the Home. (3). There is not one budget but four. These should be merged into one budget. If "in house" thinks they need this then they must so prepare for their use. (4). There was a lack of sufficient time to secure accurate knowledge necessary to check all line items presented by the Home. (5). The budget of the Home proposed by the Administration did not contain all necessary expenditures. (6). The Home administration should not expect the Budget Committee to budget each line item. The Budget and Finance Committee has no ax to grind. Our only desire is to prepare and recommend what we feel to be for the best interest of Masonry. It is the Board and Trustees responsibility to determine if the budget recommendations are correct. We therefore present the following recommendations: (1). (2). (3). (4). (5).

The Administrator of the Home be replaced by a business manager. This person be required to live in the house by the Home. Their salary to be $25,000 plus the house with utilities furnished as part of his/her salary. The business manager to be in charge of all financial decisions approved by the Board. Bonnie Gregory's title be changed to Technician. She would be in charge of housekeeping, maintainence, etc. Her salary tn remain at present level. Her employment would be on a six month basis. If her work is satisfactory she would be contracted on a yearly basis. The secretary receiving $28,400 a year be released'and a new secretary be employed at not more than $16,000.

The accountant be eliminated and his position be assigned to the computer operator and accounting clerk. The purchasing manager be eliminated and his duties assigned to the various department heads. One receptionist be eliminated and her duties assigned to the secretary. The position of George Moser be eliminated. If the Business Manager and the Technician do not know how to run the Home, they should be replaced. Cut staff functions. Cut equipment and repair expenses. License and dues be kept at contract agreement. The secretary- treasurer salary of the Kansas Masonic Home Board be eliminated and he be placed on the same expense account as the other Board members and trustees. Cut unreimbursed members expense by volunteer labor. Renegotiate cost of meals. This is excessive as we furnish so much. Eliminate year end audit expense and use "in house" auditor. Eliminate Home Health agency at end of current contract. Since 1986 approximately $143,604.00 has been lost handling this. Eliminate Annual Grand Session expense. The Deputy Grand Master will handle the Home reporting to the Grand Lodge. Reduce promotion and printing. The Craft is tired of receiving requests for money. Let it rest for a year. Reduce direct mail since we will not be sending promotion material so often. Eliminate percentage of income from Fraternal Administrator. Let his salary be his wages. (Check contract for details.) That no money received from bequests, wills, and estates be used for operation of the home. Only the interest be used. All such revenue to be turned immediately into the hands nf the Standing Investment Committee for investment in an irrevocable endowment fund. That the total budget be placed under one budget. Trying to gain more money from the government leads to unmasonic conduct. Let's be honest and eliminate the confusing coverup. A different and accurate accounting system be established in place of the current short cut cover up system. That Capital Outlay be included in the budget. That an Audit Company that specializes in nursing home accounting be employed to determine if the recommendation of the Budget Committee is correct. that an attorney be employed if the Board and Trustees anticipate problems might arise.

Again the Budget Committee wishes to state that they have no animosity toward anyone. Our desire is to try and bring the Home to a place where it can be maintained in a profitable manner. Respectfully submitted.

REPORT OF THE ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE R:.W:. Clifford L. Trax, Chairman, submitted motion, was accepted.

the

following

report

which, on his

To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge AF & AM of Kansas: The Eleventh Annual Masonic Retreat was held at Rock Springs 4-H Ranch, near Junction City, on Labor Day weekend, September 3, 4 & 5, 1988. The weather was beautiful, with cool nights and moderate daytime temperatures. This year, as in past years, we wondered if it would be too hot because of the high summer temperatures that preceded Labor Day by three or four weeks, but as usual the really hot weather disappeared before we got there. Attendance in 1988 was 92, which was a 39% increase over the 1987 attendance of 66. The principal reason for the increase in attendance was a very active participation of the Grand Chapter officers and the Order of the Eastern Star, which I am happy to say will probably be a continuing thing. This brought us a number of new people who had not previously experienced the fun and fellowship that we always enjoy each year at this time, and having been there, we have no doubt that they will want tn return again each year. A new activity was added this year: That of a "Talent Show" by and for our own attendees. It appeared to be very well received and enjoyed and will probably be continued next year. It was a very good addition to the other activities of Square Dancing, horseback riding, canoeing, Softball, swimming, horseshoes, archery, rifle range, skeet shooting, tennis and those old stand-bys of playing cards or sitting in the shade and relaxing. The Committee feels that many more Masons would bring their families to these Masonic Retreats if they had a better idea of exactly what they are. They are fun weekends dedicated to fellowship and not for the purpose of meetings and workshops. We urge the Grand Lodge Line Officers to acquaint their DDGM's with a knowledge of what it's all about in hopes that they can personally acquaint the rest of the membership during their visitations. I've had the very rewarding experience of serving on this Committee for the last nine years, and as its Chairman for the last two years, and I want to thank the other committee members and everyone else who has helped so much to make this "Masonic Retreat" such a long lasting and successful idea. Special thanks to M:.W:. Chester Gilbert and his lady Rachael for their part in getting this thing started back in 1978. On behalf of the committee, I express our appreciation for the served the members of the Grand Jurisdiction of Kansas.

To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of AF & AH of Kansas: The Finance Committee makes the following report in accordance with by-law 2-118 of the Constitution and by-laws of the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and accepted Masons of Kansas. The accounting firm of Farmis has been engaged to officially audit the books and make inspections of investments and properties. This report appears elsewhere in these proceedings and is a part of this report. The monthly income and expense statements sent to us by the Grand Secretary have been reviewed by this committee. We find these statements to be in accordance with our by-laws and the budget set forth for this Grand Jurisdiction. The Finance Committee has been well informed by the Grand Secretary of all coupons collected and interest moneys reinvested by the Grand Treasurer. This committee examined the files and records in the office of the Grand Secretary and found the same to be complete, in good order, and up-to-date. A complete inspection was made of the Grand Lodge building and the contents therein. We found several pieces of furniture stored in the Grand Lodge building not being used. We would like to recommend to the Council of Administration that these fixtures not being used or those not planned to be used in the future be turned into cash for update and purchase of new equipment in the Grand Lodge building. On December 3, 1988 the Finance Committee met with the Grand Secretary and the Council of Administration. Together we worked out a budget for 1989 to be presented at this Annual Communication. This budget apprears in the Grand Secretary's Report. The members of the Finance Committee would like to thank our Grand Claude W. Norris for the privilege of serving our Grand Lodge.

Respectfully submitted, F. Warren Starns, Chairman W. Nolan Artz Jerry Cole Merle D. Bradley C. M. "Bud" Geis REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON JURISPRUDENCE M:.W:. Arthur C. Hodgson, PGM, Chairman, presented the following report. Certain items in this report were acted upon individually; and then at the conclusion the report was accepted as a whole. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of AF & AH of Kansas: INTRODUCTION Service on this committee is interesting. The function of the committee is set forth in By-law 2-119. We have endeavored to be of assistance to our Grand Master and we have enjoyed our year of service. We feel that all requests for an interpretation should come to this committee from the Grand Master and we believe that this is the orderly way to handle questions of Jurisprudence. There has been no general meeting of the committee until this communication of Grand Lodge. Our work has been done by correspondence and by long distance telephone calls. We are submitting our report in sections so that you can vote on individual matters as you may think appropriate. HOW THE COMMITTEE FUNCTIONS The last year has seen somewhat a change in the function of the committee. Most of the questions come from the Grand Secretary or through his office to the chairman of the conmittee. The Chairman gives his opinion, mails a copy to each member of the com-

This method of operation has one thing to recommend it, namely, the customary promptness in getting the thinking of the chairman of the committee. There is no requirement that the Grand Master agree with the chairman or with the committee and in the final analysis it's his decision to make, subject to the approval of Grand Lodge. This system will work only if the chairman acts promptly on all matters presented to the committee through the chairman. GRAND MASTERS'S RECOMMENDED CHANGE TO BY-LAW 2-302 The thrust of this

Amendment would be to change

fee. We move the adoption of this recommendation. No discussion. Passed by necessary 2/3rds majority. PROPOSED AMENDMENT OF BY-LAW 2-314 GRAND MASTER'S CONTINGENT FUND The thrust of this recommendation is to delete the figure as to the amount of the contingent fund and to leave the decision to Grand Lodge at each annual communication. This change would continue to make the amount of the contingent fund subject to the approval of the members of Grand Lodge. We move this recommendation by our Grand Master be adopted. Passed by necessary 2/3rds majority. AMENDMENT TO BY-LAW 4-305 LODGE DUES-ASSESSMENT The effect of this change would be that each Entered Apprentice and each Fellow Craft as well as each Master Mason shall pay dues to be fixed by the lodge. The Committee on Jurisprudence moves this proposed change. Failed to receive the necessary 2/3rds vote in favor. KEYSTONE LODGE #102 HAS RECOMMENDED REVISION OF BY-LAW 4-201 The recommendation by Keystone Lodge #102 calls for almost a complete rewriting of By-law 4-201, and in essence provides that the degrees must all be completed within two years from the date the Petition is accepted. The Committee of Jurisprudence believes that it is the duty of the proposing lodge to speak on the proposed changes and the Committee on Jurisprudence takes no position relative to the proposal. Failed to pass by required 2/3rds majority. AMENDMENT TO OUR CONSTITUTION ARTICLE IV SECTION 1 Our Grand Master has recommended changing the above Section to provide an annual per capita tax on the members "including Entered Apprentices, Fellow Craft and Master Masons of each lodge." The change contemplated would provide for a per capita tax on Entered Apprentices and Fellow Crafts, where now the per capita tax is payable only on Master Masons. We move the adoption of this recommendation. Since this is a constitutional change it requires a 2/3rds vote in the Grand Lodge after which it is submitted to the constitutent lodges. Withdrawn at direction of the Grand Master.

OUR GRAND SECRETARY HAS RECOMMENDED THAT BY-LAW 4-401B BE AMENDED The change by our Grand Secretary makes By-law 4-401B apply not only to dual members but to plural membership. We move that it be approved. Passed by the necessary 2/3rds majority. CONCLUSION This has been a busy year for the committee as well as an enjoyable one. We thank the Grand Master for this opportunity to serve. We feel that the Grand Master has had a good year, that he has worked hard, that he had a vision and that he has worked for the good of Masonry. No two Grand Masters are the same. They are all different. Each has special talents, but we believe that all reigning Grand Masters do their best to advance Masonry in this Grand Jurisdiction during their year. Time will give the best evaluation of the work of any individual, of the success or failure, the mountain tops and the valleys. We admire and respect the Grand Master We believe that the judgement of time will be that he was an effective leader with the qood of the Craft his prime consideration.

This was a one man committee which had been chaired by Brother Dooley for a number of years. His interest in the information received from other Jurisdictions was commendable. Many hours go into the reading of communications and the replies to these communications. Brother Dooley enjoyed the comradeship of visiting by mail and he will be missed by those with whom he corresponded.

COMMITTEE ON CHARTERED LODGES AND LODGES U.D. (This report was taken from the tape of the Annual Communication and is incomplete due to background noise which made it impossible to understand the full report as presented by M:.W:. Robert G. Jackson, PGM, Chairman) M:.W:. Robert G. Jackson, PGM, Chairman, submitted the following report, which on his motion, was accepted subject to the written report at the end of the session. To the M:.W:. Grand Lodge AF & AM of Kansas: M:.W:. Grand Master, M:.W:. Past Grand Masters, Vistors, my Brethren. It has been a pleasure to have served this year on the Chartered Lodges and Lodges U.D. Committee. On behalf of R:.W:. Don Robinett, Grand Senior Warden, W:. Stan Browning of Coffeyville, and myself, I want to thank you for the privilege of allowing us to serve and to act on the things that were acted on this year within the jurisdiction of the committee. You will not find a report in your advanced proceedings because much of what's going to happen here at this session needs to be reported in this committee report. In brief, however, I would like to say the committee has observed the tranactions of the Council of Administration and the Grand Secretary's office. Al and I have been in communication on many occasions. We find that the necessary actions have been judisciously and effectively and efficiently performed. Yes, we do have problems within our Grand Jurisdiction. Would the Secretaries please rise, any and all Secretaries. Now would we all, including myself, give these Secretaries a good round of applause. Every year, come February 1st, Al gets a little nervous because of how many Annual Reports are we not going to have in, what are we going to report to the computer, of what the computer is not picking up that we thought we put in, what did happen or may happen yet, and we don't know if it's going to or not. If you figure that out now you know what the Grand Secretary goes through when he starts discussing all the things that happen in your local lodges as reported by your Secretaries. The Secretaries of our Grand Jurisdiction are doing an excellent job of making the necessary reports to report the transactions of the local lodges. We commend the actions of the Council of Administration and the Ritualistic Committee and those who had anything to do with the formation of a new Lodge in our Jurisdiction and here it is under Dispensation. Enough said about that at this particular point in time. I think in closing I would like to just take an inventory of some of the tools, the working tools that you, the craft, have either implemented or allowed to be implemented in our Grand Jurisdiction over the maybe 15 - 20 years I have been involved with the Grand Jurisdiction. I can go back; we talked about communication; we talked about Masonic Education programs; we talked about training programs; we talked modified ritual; selective invitation; updating and revision of our by-laws; we talked about the AllState High School Masonic Band, what a wonderful thing that is; the importance of the Masonic Home; the importance of the Masonic Foundation. You my brothers, these are all working tools that you, the Masons of Kansas, have allowed to be implemented into our Grand Lodge activities. Our challenge now as it relates to you, myself and all of us in this room, as was so aptly put by our Grand Master, the challenge is ours to implement these, or to utilize these working tools and implement them into the programs of our local lodge. 2,400 members we lost this year. The past 10 years we've lost almost 60 lodges because of inactivity, not because the working tools are not there. We have a challenge and we can do it, we can meet it. CHARTER PRESENTATION TO PYRAMID LODGE NO. 451 The ceremony to Charter a New Lodge was conducted by the Grand Master. After reading the Charter Members the Grand Master affixed the Seal of the Grand Lodge of Kansas and presented the Charter to W:. John W. Stewart, Master of the newly chartered Pyramid Lodge No. 451. READING OF THE JOURNAL Motion was made by Gerald 0. Butcher to The motion was duly seconded and carried.

GRAND MASTER'S ACCEPTANCE SPEECH Greetings:

Brothers, Ladies, Family and Friends:

Just four short years ago I started through the progressive line to the position to which I now hold, that of Grand Master of Masons of Kansas. It is with humility and pride that I accept this great honor. I pledge myself to continue to work for the best interest of Masonry and will do my very best to see that our great fraternity will prosper and grow. This I can only do with God's help, the support craft working together in unity.

of my fellow

I do not wish to be completely repetitious, but I do the programs of two of my predecessors.

officers and all the

wish to emphasize

and follow

First: That of M:.W:. Richard Porter who encouraged the use of shortened form proficiency. This I would like to see continued. However, I do want to remind you that it's use is optional. I would recommend it being used for those who have a difficulty with memorization. I feel it should be necessary to learn the obligation and any part or parts of the esoteric work which are needed to prove one's membership in the fraternity. Please do not abuse the priviledge of using the shortened form. Second: M:.W:. Clifford Knauss started the program of the three R's of membership: Recruitment, Retention and Reinstatement. This, too, I feel must be an ongoing program. I would challenge each lodge officer to turn in one petition in his lodge during the year. In doing so, there would be a possibility of thirty-three degrees being conferred. Enough to keep any lodge motivated. This year we are entering upon a new program, "The Kansas Masonic University Program." This program offers a challenge to pursue Masonic Education. Education to the members as well as education for those coming into our fraternity. Education in Masonry is a must if we are going to survive. Every Mason who holds membership in a Kansas lodge has an opportunity to pursue this challenge and I hope every member accepts the challenge. For Masonry to grow and prosper there must be knowledge of the fraternity and it's teachings. There must be membership to carry out those things we are taught. We must emphasize the need for an educated membership. The Masonic University program offers the opportunity to increase in knowledge, thus better enabling us to answer the questions presented us by the un-initiated. Far too long we have lived and acted upon custom. Too long we have interpreted custom to be law. It is not. Customs change with times and we must bring our customs up to today's times. Let us live and teach Masonry in tune with today's times. There is one custom which has prevailed throughout the years, and which should never change. That is the custom of friends and brethren getting together. Neither should it be forgotten. I would urge you to provide, through the support of your lodge, some kind of family entertainment. Invite your non-member friends, expose them to our teachings. Have a hamburger fry, or some such get-together for the young men in the senior class of your high school. They are each a potential future Mason. What I am trying to say is that we need not hide the beauty of brotherly love, but we should exhibit those things which we have been taught for the betterment of mankind through our daily living.

Proceedings of the

March

We must continue to work closely together with our appendant bodies, not forgetting that our blue lodge is the foundation upon which they are structured. We must work especially close with our youth groups for they are our future leaders. Give them your complete support. We must work closely with other groups within our communities for the betterment of those communities. We must come out from under that shroud of secrecy under which we have been. We must exhibit by our daily living those teachings of our fraternity, so that those around us might thereby be more interested in becoming one of us. We must, most importantly, remember that Masonry is not a religion. Neither is it to take the place of any religion. There is nothing in free masonry that is opposed to the religion a man brings with him into the lodge. We profess belief in God, belief in God is faith. There is a quote upon which I try to live, and will make a more concentrated effort to follow in the future, "Do not do in haste what you will regret in leisure." I must remind you that I am human. As such, I will error. I can only promise that I will do my very best to promote those things and do those acts which will be for the best interest of Ancient Free and Accepted Masonry in Kansas., As I enter into this year of serving as Grand Master of Masons in Kansas, I pray that God will grant me health and wisdom to perform those acts and make those decisions which lie before me for the betterment of Free Masonry, so that when my year is completed, I may look back with pride, knowing that I have done my best.

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH OF M:.W:. CLAUDE W. NORRIS BY M:.W:. LAWRENCE D. WINEGARDNER .PAST GRAND MASTER 1984

Brother Master Mason - a title that certainly fits M:.W:. Claude W. Norris. Claude has that rare ability to walk into a room and immediately put everyone at ease. His zeal for Masonry, his drive for perfection in all facets of our fraternity has been demonstrated during his years from Senior Deacon to Grand Master. And yet, if the occasion demands, our Junior Past Grand Master has the courage to be true to himself and the principles in which he believes. • Claude W. Norris was born August 19, 1930, in Drexel, Missouri, to William L. Norris and Nina M. Norris, the' second of three children, and older brother an a sister. In 1940 the Norr.is family moved to Ft. Scott, Kansas, where Mr. Norris was employed as a service man for'Montgomery Ward until 1951, when he opened and operated his own plumbing and heating service until his death in 1964. Claude graduated from Fort Scott High School in 1948. He attended Fort Scott Junior College for a year, dropping out to enlist in the Navy in 1951, during the Korean conflict. His service included 15 months in Korea. He was discharged in 1955 with a rating of Engineman 1st Class. He returned to civilian life and worked for his father until 1964. In 1965 Claude, with three others, formed their own heating and plumbing corporation. This lasted until 1975, when Claude sold his shares and went into business with his two sons, Michael and Phillip, an association which continues to flourish today. During this period, Claude found time to attend night school at Pittsburg State University Vo-Tech School, Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning Division, for four years, graduating in 1964. Incidentally, he maintained a 4.0 grade average while attending the university. After graduation he was asked to serve as an advisor to the Vo-Tech School and did so for three years until 1967. It is always said that behind every successful man there is a loving and devoted wife. Claude is no exception. He met, courted and married Phyllis Lea Austin in 1950 and they have three children, Michael, Phillip and Jonni. Michael and his wife, Kathy, are the parents of two children, as are Phillip and his wife, Deborah, and Jonni and her husband, Steve, making Claude a six-time grandfather. Claude is extremely active in civic affairs. He and Phyllis are members of the Fort Scott Church of Christ. He is a long-time member of the Fort Scott Chamber of Commerce, and also a member of the VFW since 1955. At the urging of his neighbors and business associates, he ran for the Fort Scott City Commission in 1983 and was elected. He served on the Commission for four years, two of them as mayor, resigning in September 1987 to devote his time to Grand Lodge activities. After stepping down as Grand Master, he was again asked to run for the City Commission and on April 4, 1989, he was elected for a four-year term. Claude and his family have all been active in Masonry, as his record will show. He and Phyllis are members of Olive Chapter #13, OES. Michael and Phillip are also members of Rising Sun #8 in Fort Scott and both have served as Worshipful Master. It might be noted here that Mike and Phil made it possible for Claude to give almost unlimited time to Grand Lodge activities while serving as Grand Master. They completely took over the operation of the Norris Heating and Air Conditioning firm, thus allowing Claude to travel at will. A glance at his itinerary will show that M:.W:. Claude Norris was a most active Grand Master. Grand Lodge was opened eighteen times for Special Communications. In one instance it was opened three times in less than 30 hours - in Wichita, Manhattan and Leavenworth. Past Grand Masters grave markers were placed on the graves of four PGM's: April 30 Fort Scott, Kansas, M:.W:. Addison C. Irby - GM 1959-60 August 7 Shawnee Mission, Kansas, M:.W:. Ben W. Graybill - GM 1963-64 October 28 Wichita, Kansas, M:.W:. Richard A. Porter - GM 1983-84 October 29 Manhattan, Kansas, M:.W:. Durward C. Danielson - GM 1986-87

Proceedings of the

March

There were other highlights during Claude's year: Grand Lodge was opened in Leavenworth on October the 29th to dedicate the Leavenworth County Historical Society marker on the building of the Leavenworth Masonic Building Association; on November 18th Grand Lodge was opened in Wichita to rededicate and relay the cornerstone of the Sedgwick County Courthouse, celebrating the 100th anniversary of the original laying of the cornerstone; and on November 20th Grand Lodge was again opened, this time in Ness City, to lay the cornerstone of the new Ness City Elementary School. These three events were open to the public and were all well attended. More details will be found elsewhere in these proceedings. While serving as DGM, Claude was asked by M:.W:. Clifford D. Knauss to chair a committee which would look into restructuring the governing body of the Masonic Home in Wichita. After a great deal of research, recommendations were made which went into effect early in 1988. To some extent this move has greatly improved the operation at our Home. The Masonic Home, for the first time in many years, operated in the black in excess of $540,000. But as the Grand Master observed, there are still many problems to be solved. One of M:.W:. Claudes's achievements during his year, and one of which he is most proud, was the creation of the Kansas Masonic University, a course of study designed to improve Masonic knowledge in Kansas. M:.W:. Claude conceived the idea while serving as DGM; with the help of the Council of Administration and other brethren across the state, he put the program into operation. It has been received with much enthusiasm by the Craft and promises to be a most important contribution to Masonic Education in the future. Claude believes that good fellowship is a most important part of Masonry, that promoting camaraderie and friendly feelings ranks almost in equal importance with the serious side of the fraternity. He firmly believes that all work and no play makes a dull Mason. He works hard when there is work to be done, but there is always time afterwards to relax, to enjoy good fellowship and the strengthen the brotherly ties of Masonry. Every Grand Master has left his mark on the fraternity. And while some may have made a greater impact than others, nevertheless, each deserves the promise of: "Well done, good and faithful servant!" M:.W:. Claude Norris is no exception. He will be remembered as an outstanding Grand Master, a true friend and a dedicated Mason.
