Grand Lodge of Kansas BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH of EARL DEAN OSBORN GRAND MASTER OF MASONS IN KANSAS MARCH 19, 1994 TO MARCH 18, 1995
Dean was bom April 16, 1943 on a farm just outside Penalosa, Kansas. The youngest of six children bom to Robert A. And Lottie T. Osbom, he has always been proud of his Norwegian and American heritage. He lived several "primitive but enjoyable years", as he describes them, before electricity and indoor plumbing came to his part of the country in the mid-1950's. Before entering grade school, he learned to drive and operate farm equipment as well as to chock grain and perform other farm chores. On October 31,1950, while in the second grade, his mother passed away. He then learned indoor chores such as cooking, house cleaning, and washing laundry with a motorized Maytag washing machine and ironing with a stove-heated iron. One week after his mother's passing, he was introduced to Freemasonry by seeing it in action. Fourteen neighbors, all Masons, showed up in thefrontyard on tractors with implements in tow, to help finish tilling the fields and planting the winter crops. This was an example of service to one's fellow man which not only left an indelible impression upon his mind but also served to assist him in cultivating a philosophy for living. This favorable opinion of Masonry and its principles of conduct was dramatically reinforced years later by a congratulatory letter he received as an Entered Apprentice from then Grand Master Arthur C. Hodgson. After attending schools in Penalosa and Pratt, he graduated from high school in Cunningham. He acquired his formal education at Hutchinson Community Junior College, where he majored in Theology, and at Wichita State University, where he majored in Business. He acquired his Social Security Card at the age of 13 and immediately found a full-time job to help pay his expenses through school. In his early professional career, he was associated with the State of Kansas Grain Inspection Department and spent several years in retail management with the Zaie Corp., where he was recognized with several awards for outstanding marketing excellence. Since 1981, he has served as Secretary of Albert Pike Lodge No. 303. Dean holds and "imlimited" proficiency card and in 1966 had the pleasure of Raising his father to the Sublime Degree of Master Mason in Cunningham Lodge No. 427. His hobbies include teaching Dale Carnegie courses as a graduate assistant when time permits, fishing, and playing the acoustical guitar specializing in folk, gospel, and some classical music. He and his lovely wife, Pat, attend the Riverside Christian Church, where they were married by Dr. Robert D. Ely, Senior Pastor and a member of Albert Pike Lodge. Pat has two lovely daughters.

The Grand Master introduced Sister Patricia Hansen, Worthy Grand Matron, Order of Eastern Star who thanked the Craft for their cooperation with the "Masonic Mile of Food," a successful joint venture of the Masons and the Order of Eastern Star. (Presented Eastern Star pin to Grand Master.) At the request of the Grand Master, Brother Jerry Cole, President of the Kansas Masonic Foundation, introduced Dr. Steven Russell who heads the Research Department at the Kansas University School of Medicine and who has been a recipient of the generosity of the Craft. Dr. Russell: Most Worshipful Grand Master, Most Worthy Grand Matron, Most Worthy Grand Patron, distinguished guests in the East, Masonic friends: I always enjoy the opportunity to come here to be with you, even though it's just for a few moments so that I can acknowledge the wonderful generosity your organization represents and what it does for cancer research and the support of cancer patients in Kansas. And I want to point out to you that to this time since 1974 your generosity has resulted in nearly 1.5 million dollars donated to the University of Kansas Medical Center for those purposes. But today I want to acknowledge something that we think is a singularly important event and something that could not have been possible without your wonderfiil generosity and that is the establishment of a new endowed research chair at the University of Kansas Medical Center: Our Cancer Center put up the first 100,00 thousand dollars that is necessary to endow a chair. You, through your donations, are going to add to that 900,000 thousand dollars to finally equal a million dollars over the course of the next five years. In recognition of the fact that you have made this wonderfiil pledge, and you are well along the way to raising those funds, we have created a plaque and 1 would like to read to you what is on this plaque. It says, the "Kansas Masonic Foundation and the Freemasons of Kansas are gratefully acknowledged for their vision and generosity having endowed the Kansas Masonic Research Chair." Now this is something that will go on in perpetuity. This is very different than what has been done in the past, for your contributions which have been extremely important, but once this chair is in place it will go on literally as long as the institution goes on which, hopefully, will be quite a long time. Now it gives me great pleasure and. Most Worshipful Sir, if you would help me with this, 1 would appreciate it. It gives me great pleasure to introduce to you the very distinguished scientist who is the first occupant of this chair. Dr. David C. Morrison, an internationally known and recognized cancer researcher particularly in area that are related to why infection is so important to the cancer patient. Literally in some instances more people die in the process of treatment because of lower defense mechanisms because of infection than they dofi'omcancer itself I don't have a pin to give you Most Worshipful Sir, but if 1 could ask you to present this plaque to Dr. Morrison. Grand Master E. Dean Osbom: Dr. Morrison is a researcher of international fame and we are very, very fortunate the he has agreed to accept the chair that we have endowed. And it is with a great deal of pleasure and honor on my part that I make this presentation. Thank you so very much - the Masons of Kansas thank you so very much. Dr. Morrison: Thank you so very much Most Worshipful Grand Master. I must tell you that it is an extreme honor for me to accept this position as a token of your trust and your commitment as is our own commitment to further research in the area of cancer. I think you all can appreciate that these are indeed very exciting times in bio-medical research community. 1 think our research knowledge has increased orders of magnitude over the last five to ten years and really useful therapeutic approaches in the treatment of cancer are now approaching the point where they not only hopes and dreams, but actually soori to be realized. I think at this point and time that our ability to fiilfill these dreams are limited only by the resources that are available to continue the research. This opportunity fostered by your generosity to establish the Kansas Masonic Cancer Research Chair will go a long way toward increasing our opportunities in the laboratory to actually make these dreams become a reality. 1 recognize very fully the trust that you have placed in us to utilize to the best of our ability these resources that you will make available and I earnestly hope that we will

earnestly use every resource that is made available to us in the vrisest possible way. So again, I am truly honored and distinguished by this degree of recognition and, Most Worship Grand Master, it's my only regret that I do not have in my pocket another pin to give you from the University of Kansas Medical Center, and for that 1 hope you will forgive me. Thank you so much. The Grand Master introduced the new Office Manager, Mrs. Deborah Kennamore, for recognition. The Grand Master closed the public opening session and announced that the formal opening of Grand Lodge would begin at 10:00 A. M. Grand Lodge was opened in ample form and called to order for the purpose of conducting the business of the One Hundred Thirty-Ninth Annual Communication. W.-. Brother Donald Doll, Chairman of the Credentials Committee gave the preliminary report. 309 Lodges on Roll 157 Lodges Represented 148 Masters Present The Grand Master asked the Grand Senior Deacon to present the Past Grand Masters in the East facing West if they were extended Private Grand Honors. ADDRESS OF THE GRAND MASTER Brethren: To say this past year has been one of challenge would be an understatement. Your Council of Administration's No. 1 priority this past year was to make a positive difference in reversing our membership trend. We determined this goal could be accomplished by building on the previous years' programs, by developing a mission and vision statement, and by continued participation in the Masonic Renewal Committee of North America. With the assistance of two professional facilitators, the vision and mission statement became a reality. It is printed on the preceding page and is now the standard by which ideas are tested before they become policy. The 1993 membership programs resulted in a 61% increase of new Master Masons over the previous 6 year average. These programs came about as a result of our participation in the Masonic Renewal Committee. We were able to identify technical adjustments needed in our joining process in order to attract men in today's society as well as the development of prospect programs which will assist us in sustaining and developing our membership. The year took a sudden turn of events the 1 st of June when your Council of Administration accepted the resignation of our then Grand Secretary. It became necessary to redirect hundreds of pieces of correspondence to my office in Wichita until such time as our Grand Lodge Office was brought back on line. At the same time, your Council of Administration found it necessary to establish a new accounting system in order to bring our financial situation under control. Line items were added to the budget process for the purpose of tracking expenses and inventory. Programs and services were canceled as we made an all out effort to reduce runaway deficit spending. This was, without a doubt, the most challenging period of the entire year. Your Council of Administration is confident that we have met the challenge head-on and now have the proper consols set in place to prevent any future occurrence of this same problem. It goes without saying that the only real solution to financial stability is increased membership. Special assessments and per capita tax increases are not preferred options.

RULINGS 1 ruled that it is quite proper for members of certain religious persuasions to wear a head covering during Lodge meetings if it is a part of their religious habit. SPECIAL DISPENSATIONS When 1 was installed last March, our Past Grand Masters presented me with a beautiful Mont Blanc pen. It was put to good use. All requests for special dispensations were tendered in good faith by the Lodges. I felt it was my duty and responsibility to assist and not to hinder. Therefore, all requests were honored. I am a firm believer in the fact that your Grand Master should be part of the solution and not part of the problem. He is elected to serve the Craft, not to control or restrain it. GRAND REPRESENTATIVES It was my great pleasure throughout this past year to appoint the following Brothers as Grand Representatives from the Grand Lodge of Kansas to other Jurisdictions: Massachusetts—T. Michael Fegan North Dakota-James E. Moore New Brunswick-James T. Ross South Dakota-Phillip C. Osborne Saskatchewan—Alan R. Hale Norway Van A. McLemore Costa Rica Robert N. Runion France Patrick D. Recob Montana-Gregory L. Miller OTHER GRAND JURLSDICTIONS Because of budget constraints, only the Grand Jurisdiction of Iowa was visited this past year. This was authorized to commemorate and observe their 150th Anniversary. Our Grand Senior Warden graciously consented to be my personal representative for that occasion. COUNCIL OF ADMINISTRATION It was my distinct pleasure to serve with Morris Fisher, Carveth Neer, and Jeff Sowder as members of your Council of Administration. We met often and with diverse opinions. Peace and harmony always prevailed and we always departed united in our determination to reverse the trend of membership loss and put it in permanent remission. All our action has to stand the test of our vision and mission statement. APPOINTIVE GRAND LODGE OFFICERS Every Grand Master feels he had the best officers ever, and I am no exception. Each of you was picked for a specific reason, but all of you were picked because I personally felt you would promote our Gentle Craft with zeal and determination. My faith was well founded. You have fulfilled the duties of your office with distinction and have set standards for others to emulate. AREA DEPUTIES AND DISTRICT DEPUTIES This special group of men are indeed the eyes and ears of the Grand Master, as well as his personal representative in their respective Areas and Districts. Many of you were called upon for service above and beyond and you responded without hesitation. Your efforts and dedication can never be overstated. Thank you for serving your Grand Lodge and your Fraternity. GRAND LECTURERS AND ASSISTANTS Your skill in teaching uniformity of Ritual is far to often overlooked and your efforts are too soon forgotten. Without the continuity of your "instructive tongue," the transmitting of our "wise and serious truths" would be greatly impaired. I thank you, and the Craft thanks you.

COMMITTEEMEN You men have, over the years, worked behind the scenes and because of this your work generally goes unrecognized. Your work is of invaluable assistance to your Grand Master and serves to promote the best interest of this Grand Jurisdiction. Thank you for your willingness to serve your Grand Lodge. GRAND LODGE OFFICE STAFF With my simple command of the English language, it is impossible to find ample words of gratitude and praise for all the hard work performed by our staff in bringing the Grand Lodge office back on line. Our staff is over-worked, under-paid, and at times under-appreciated. But, extremely dedicated. Please, please take the time to let them know how much they are appreciated. PAST GRAND MASTERS To this most distinguished group of Masons, thank you. Your support, your council, and your encouragement are of great value and should be considered an asset to any Grand Master. In particular, 1 pay special tribute to M.-. W.-. Art Hodgson. Brother Art was Grand Master in 1964 when I joined this Great Fratemity. His letter to me as an Entered Apprentice not only gave me a feeling of selfworth but also inspired me to become an active Freemason. He is a true gentleman and an inspiration to our entire Craft. To M.-. W.-. Don E. Robinett, who in mid-year and without hesitation or reservation accepted the position of Grand Secretary, you have my personal thanks and the genuine gratitude of the entire Council of Administration. To M.-. W.-. Warren Starns, our Grand Treasurer, your council and expertise is an invaluable asset to this Grand Lodge. APPENDANT AND CONCORDANT BODIES Our Appendant and Concordant Bodies are an integral part of our Grand Fratemity. While they add prestige and luster to our principles, they offer a variety of activities and opportunities for achievement to our diversified membership. It is with pleasure that your Council of Administration authorized the establishment of a Council of Knight Masons within our Jurisdictional borders. It is with equal pleasure that we salute the Shrine of North America for reaffirming its allegiance to Craft Masonry. ALBERT PIKE LODGE NO. 303 AND NORTH STAR LODGE NO. 168 A special thank you to the Trustees, Officers, and members of Albert Pike Lodge for your courtesies and consideration of my time this past 5 years. And, a special thank you to the Officers and members of North Star Lodge for the courtesies you have extended. The encouragement of my two lodges and the encouragement of the Craft throughout the state have made this a most rewarding experience. RECOMMENDATIONS That we consider allowing no more that 85% of the Grand Lodge projected income to be budgeted for the year's expenses. Our cash reserves need to be replaced and need to increase at an annual rate of 5% just to keep pace with inflation. That all expenditures from our Grand Lodge Charity Fund be suspended and the requests for charity be honored only from the Grand Master's Charity Fund as income becomes available. Under the guidelines of our present Grand Lodge Charity Fund there is a direct pipeline into the Grand Lodge cash reserves.

In keeping with the recommendation of our auditors, I recommend that the Grand Master's Contingency be paid to the Grand Master either monthly or quarterly as agreed to by the Council of Administration and that the Grand Master be given a 1099 Form at the end of the year. If he doesn't keep receipts then the matter is between him and the IRS and he can be assured of paying a heavy tax. It is his responsibility to maintain these records and not the responsibility of the Grand Lodge. That we consider forming a professional team of 5 or 6 members be established to perform Grand Lodge dedications. This will not only conserve the time of our Grand Master but will save the travel expenses of having all Grand Lodge officers present for such occasions. That we consider discontinuing spring and fall area meetings. These meetings are very expensive. They produce little, if anything, in a return for the dollars spent and seem more or less to serve as a day of entertainment to the area members. They are a luxury we can no longer afford. That the Grand Master's visits be restricted to events of significant importance only and then at the expense of the Lodge which invites him. Under the present system, each Lodge feels they have the right to request a visit from the Grand Master because his travel expenses are paid by the Grand Lodge. We have over 300 Lodges and a Grand Master cannot possibly visit each one. Some Lodges demand his presence year in and year out. Unfortunately the Grand Master's presence sometimes appears to be nothing more than an inexpensive program for the Lodge. If we were to adopt this recommendation, we would save thousands of dollars annually and at the same time allow the Grand Master time to focus on the real needs of our Fraternity. The test of a Grand Master's dedication, his willingness to accept responsibility, and his ability to demonstrate leadership should not be judged by how many meetings he can attend during the year. His time is better spent in overseeing the programs of the Grand Lodge. That we consider forming a blue ribbon committee to develop membership programs. This committee to be composed of the most progressive thinkers representing our Grand Lodge, our York Rite, our Scottish Rite, and our Shrine. Collectively we can overcome this, the most pressing challenge of our Fraternity. Separately we have demonstrated that we have at best a Band-Aid solution and at worst no solution at all. Growth in membership is the only real answer to financial stability. That the Grand Secretary be invited to all Council of Administration meetings. His knowledge of the bylaws, his input on all matters, his experience, and his position are assets to the Council and warrant his presence. That Proposition #18 of the proposed amendments to the By-laws of Kansas Masonry be amended to include all Master Masons of this Grand Jurisdiction as members of this Grand Lodge. HIGHLIGHTS AND CONCLUSION This past year has been filled with many highlights. We saw the completion of the new independent living facility at our Kansas Masonic Home and the endowment of the Kansas Masonic Foundation Chair for oncology research at the KU Medical Center. Both charities bring credit and prestige to the Masons of Kansas. The Masons of the south central and the south western portions of our state raised $27,000.00 to purchase food for the underprivileged in their respective areas. In a joint fund-raising effort between our Masonic Home, our Masonic Foundation and our Grand Lodge, over $11,000.00 was received and placed in our newly established Grand Masters Charity Fund. Our Governor signed into law a bill giving tax relief to our Lodges. This was a long 5 year campaign. The end result was worth the effort. Our Lodges can now once again devote their time and energy to the needs of their local communities.

I had the pleasure of being presented with 5 gavels and the key to 3 cities during my travels, and the added pleasure of acting as host to feature writer. Amy Gamerman, of the Wall Street Journal, while she was in Wichita for the purpose of writing a feature article about the Shrine of North America. This article appeared on the front page of the Journal's February 9th edition. A visit to Greenwood Lodge No. 163 in Fall River will always be remembered. Their Lodge does not recall ever having a visit by a Grand Master. MEMBERSHIP The years 1987 through 1992 saw an average of 590 new Master Masons per year. In 1993 this average increased by 61% to 950 new Master Masons, and 1 am pleased to announce that in 1994 we increased that 6 year average by 178%. This past year we Raised just over 1600 new Master Masons. Our involvement in the Masonic Renewal Committee of North America, our development of prospect programs, and our steadfast dedication to our vision and mission statement has placed Kansas in the forefront of Masonic revival. After 38 years of membership losses, we seemed to accept loss as being natural. Therefore, change does not come easy. It did not come easy in 1717 when we changed from Operative to Speculative. As our ancient Brethren persevered, so shall we. As they built a stronger Fraternity, so shall we. It will be Kansas that determines the future of Freemasonry on the North American continent. You. my Brethren, deserve all the credit because you are making good things happen for your Fraternity. You are making Masonic history and will carry our Fraternity into the 21 st Century ever stronger and restore the luster of our Gentle Craft to its present vision. The vision that was once a reality, will again become a reality. Thank you for a job well done and thank you for allowing me to privilege of serving as your Chief among Equals. Dean Osborn Grand Master Upon motion the report of the Grand Master was accepted.
VISION (What we want lo become by the year 2000) FrceMasonry is universally recognized as the preeminent organization that exemplifies leadership, charity, fellowship, and positive family values within the community, the state, the country, and the world at large.
MISSION (The reason we exist) The mission of Kansas Masonry is to provide for its members opportunities for personal growth through fellowship, education, service, and leadership experience, and increased self-esteem through recognition and the opportunity to give something back to their community. The mission outside of the Fraternity is to fulfill charitable needs, display positive family values and offer leadership to the community. By fulfilling this mission, the fraternity will grow and prosper as good men seek to join and remain associated with men of high principle and character, as taught by Freemasonry.

RULINGS OF GRAND MASTER Kansas Lodges: Please read this letter at your next Stated Commimication. Dear Worshipful Master, Officers and Brethren: This letter is to confirm the Gremd Lodge Program that was instituted this past year. 1.
Members suspended for nonpayment of dues will be allowed to restore their membership by paying just this current year's dues. In keeping with a spirit of fairness. Grand Lodge will forfeit the standard previous year's per capita tax.

Lodges that so desire (and we hope you all will) may complete Degree work on all outstanding Entered Apprentices in the following manner: Grand Lodge will waive the time limit between the Degrees. In doing this, we ask that all Lodges teach the candidate the grips, signs and passwords of the several Degrees and accept this as suitable proficiency. This will allow you to clear your books of old Entered Apprentices who have, for whatever reason, been unable to complete their Degrees. You will find that many will enjoy the ritual and want to learn and be a part of it, and become active in your lodge. Others will not care to be involved in the ritualistic part of our Fraternity, but will be anxious to serve on committees. Others will prefer to work in our community projects, and some will be content to just pay their dues and support our Lodges with their financial backing. Remember, it takes all of us working together, each doing what he feels comfortable in doing, to have a successfiil lodge.
3.
Many Lodges are no longer able to confer the Degrees, but would bring in petitions if they could have the Degrees conferred. Please consider this option; Lodges may take their older Entered Apprentices and/or new candidates to another Lodge for courtesy work. Last year our Grand Master and the Council of Administration authorized this to be tried on an experimental basis. The results were overwhelming. Many older Entered Apprentices were able to complete their Degrees and many new candidates, who were unable to join because of the time requirements, were able to become members. The end result is that many who thought they didn't have time to join in the traditional marmer, have now made Masonry a priority and are very active. Mind you, this does not replace the traditional method ofjoining. This is only an option to help you clear your books of older Entered Apprentices and allow you to increase your membership by bringing in those who do not feel they have time to join in the traditional manner. If you would care to take advantage of this option, please consider this letter as your special dispensation to do so. The best way to utilize this program is to have a host Lodge. Make it a District wide event or an Area wide event. Plan it 6 to 8 weeks in advance so all Lodges will have time to receive and ballot on new petitions, and have time to contact their older Entered Apprentices. If you want to try this program, please write for details a couple of weeks prior to conferring the Degrees. Some allowances should be made so the Degrees can be conferred in a smooth and impressive manner. Grand Lodge will be more than happy to suggest guidelines for your one-day event.
Fraternally yours. Dean Osbom Grand Master I ruled that it is quite proper for members of certain religious persuasions to wear a head covering during Lodge meetings as it is a part of their religious habit. Dean Osbom Grand Master

There being no further business Grand Lodge was declared adjourned and the Grand Lodge officers and others in attendance processed to the auditorium of Wallace County High School for the Commemoration Service. The service was conducted by Reverend Gerry Sharp, United Methodist Church. Special music was offered by Jayne Pearce, soloist, and Beverly Elder, pianist. Clay Jenkins, son-in-law of Ralph, gave the eulogy. The homily was given by Dr. Forrest D. Haggard, PGM, retired minister. The Masonic Graveside service was conducted by the Grand Lodge officers at the Sharon Springs cemetery. Following the graveside service the family received visitors at the Holy Ghost Parish Center. Morris L. Fisher Deputy Grand Master ATTEST: A. Kevin Kobler Grand Secretary RALPH DOWELL WALKER 1936-1994 Ralph Walker was a man of big dreams and huge energies. He was driven to achieve, to learn, to master whatever he did, and to lead others. He was a restless man. He was impatient of all barriers. He spent his life battling the elements: the weather, a capricious farm economy, and severe health problems. He had an indomitable will. It may be said that Ralph Walker held on to life and to his farm enterprises long after most others would have yielded to forces beyond human control. When he was healthy he saw life as a battle of delight. He saw illness as an assault to be beaten back with as much force as necessary and as much grace as possible. Ralph will be remembered for his remarkable public service, but his private life with Cathy and his children was an extraordinary adventure in love and devotion and challenge. Ralph loved the world but his family was his first priority. He had an acute sense of civic responsibility. He was a tireless advocate for public education who pushed individuals and the community to make learning the foundation of success, happiness, and community pride. He was an active member of the Masonic Lodge, and 33rd Degree Mason, and in 1976, the Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Masons in Kansas. He created the Sharon Springs Chapter of the Order of DeMolay to provide a character-building institution for young men. He believed that a community must provide encouragement and sometimesfinancialhelp to its least fortunate residents. He quietly saw to it that needy young people received eyeglasses, that medical and utility bills were paid on behalf of the desperate, that empty tables were spread with food. Although he was often desperately sick himself, he made it his mission to comfort others who were ill, to provide support to their families, and to encourage them to tap the healing power of positive thinking. He was a progressive farmer, one of the pioneers in flood irrigation, in sugar beet production, in land terracing, and in water conservation in Western Kansas, He served as President of the Kansas Irrigation Association, as a member of the Kansas Geological Survey Advisory Board, and as a member of the Wallace County USD #241 School Board, over which he presided for four years. Ralph was an uncompromising champion of excellence. He wanted to build a school in Wallace County that would be a monument to the community's commitment to education, but he was less interested in the physical plant than in the mission of the school. He wanted excellence to be encouraged among all of our
1994-1995
Grand Lodge of Kansas
29
citizens regardless of their life choices. He saw this as particularly important in a rural community where self-sufficiency and self-improvement are so important. He wanted the school to prepare young people to be well-spoken and polite, and to have the skills, ideas, and sense of history necessary to meet the challenges of a rural community. He wanted the graduates of the Wallace County schools to be ready, if they wished, to attend West Point or Colby Community College, the Colorado School of Mines or Kansas State University. Ralph Walker was bom to learn and talk. He was intensely curious. He loved people, whose ideas, opinions, quirks, and habits he sought out with restless enthusiasm. He was an omnivorous reader, traveler, and observer. He would explore a packing plant, a prison, or the mountains of Colorado with equal zest. He would strike up conversations with perfect strangers in cafes, museums, on airplanes, in hospitals, and he always returned with a new idea or a new friend. He was equally fascinated by the intricacies of the futures market, the chemistry of farming, the witticisms of H. L. Mencken, and the subtleties of the DNA molecule. There was virtually nothing that did not interest him. He loved to dance, to make and listen to music, to entertain friends, to drive around the farm and through the American countryside, to build things, and to admire what others had built. Above all he loved to organize things. Although he was bom in Washington, D. C , on May 17,1936, he grew up in Denver, Colorado, and he died thereon May 5, 1994, just before his 58th birthday. For more than 20 years he fought kidney disease and many related maladies. He was the recipient of two kidney transplants (1983 and 1990), artificial hips, and shoulders. In the end he died suddenly of a brain hemorrhage at Rose Medical Center in Denver. As always, his beloved wife Cathryn was at his side. He is survived by his mother Cleda Walker, her sister Jenny Doherty, a brother Dwayne Walker, four children: Inga Sloan, Etta Walker, Eve Chadwick, and Dowell Walker, four grand-children on the ground—Hale, Mara, and Zane Sloan and Kelsey Walker—and two more on the way. He is also survived by sons-in-law Craig Sloan, Clay Jenkinson, and Paul Chadwick, and by daughter-in-law Lisa Walker. Even in death, Ralph gave some of his great spirit to his children, and he gave his liver and corneas to transplant recipients as needy and grateful as he, twice, had been. In spite of the acute pain which he endured through much of his life, Ralph often said that he loved the earth and its people, and that if there were a heaven, it must surely look like the world in which he lived his life.

REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: The past year, 1994, has been another very difficult year for the members of the Finance Committee. Once again, from January to June, budgetreportswere not received in a timely manner. When they were finally received they were found to be poorly prepared and not accurate. With the appointment of our new Office Manager the problems were corrected by her, expense items charged to proper budget line items and correct expense totals issued year to date to the end of July. These corrections revealed a budget deficit of $60,000.00 year to date. The deficits continued to the end of the year with a final total approaching above $90,000.00. The Grand Master, Council of Administration and members of the Finance Committee met several times during the year and every possible effort was made to control spending and slow the deficit spending. The Grand Master shut off all spending except for fixed expenses that absolutely had to be met. Meetings were held with our accounting firm to review budget expenses and investments in November, as well as to prepare an expense budget for 1995. Present at that meeting was a senior member of the Topeka office of Paine-Webber. He was in attendance to help review our investments controlled by them and to offer assistance in review of other investments not imder their control. Many of those investments were not receiving aimual reviews and were being allowed to roll over and renew automatically. Some of those investments were only making a .04% return. Paine-Webber suggested that they would handle the balance of our investments not already under their control at no extra cost to us. That way we get an annual review and investment advice on all of our accounts and the best rate of return every year. Their suggestion was adopted by the Council of Administration and that annual review is now being done. During an earlier meeting we were informed by the Office Manager that the Grand Lodge has several special checking accounts that were inactive and were paying monthly service charges on. On our recommendation the Coimcil of Administration agreed to close those accounts out and to move existing fiinds to the General or Charity Account leaving only two. We are now operating the Grand Lodge on a fiscal year starting January 1 and ending December 31 each year. This allows for funds collected during that fiscal year to be accounted for accordingly. The Grand Lodge has made arrangements for an accounting firm of Certified Public Accountants to audit our books and accounts for 1994. Their report appears elsewhere in these proceedings. We hope to control spending by stopping the spending of non-fixed expenses as these line items of the budget exhaust amounts allowed. Anyone present who would like to return their mileage and per deim checks as a contribution to Grand Lodge will help control the deficit. The cost of issuing those check represents an expense of $35,000.00. Return of those checks on a voluntary basis may well keep Grand Lodge from going over budget in 1995. With our membership base shrinking and fixed Grand Lodge expenses reflecting current rates of inflation we are almost certainly going to need to increase Per Capita Tax very soon. The other option would be to cut expenses by selling the existing Grand Lodge building in downtown Topeka and move it to a smaller more cost effective location out of the downtown area. Here again action needs to occur soon. We cannot afford to operate out of our savings very much longer. If no action is taken, the problem will solve itself soon. The members of the Finance Coinmittee would like to thank M.-. W.-. E. Dean Osbom for his assistance and cooperation and for the opportimity to serve the Grand Lodge of Kansas during 1994. Respectfully submitted, Jim E Ross, Chairman Melbum C. Barnes Ray Hopson Don E Robinett, PGM Upon motion the report of the Finance Committee was accepted.

REPORT OF THE GRAND TREASURER To the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas This report does not contain the numbers I would like to be giving you, this has not been a good year for Grand Lodge finances. This is the third year in succession our expenses have exceeded our income. This year our expenses were $ 139,171.00 more than our income in the general fund. One of the reasons for this is our net income for the year was $56,161.00 less than a year ago. Also $28,254.00 depreciation was also included in the operating expense this year. Our investment portfolio is now down to $198,404.00 and this will lower our investment income for the ensuing year considerably. Respectfully submitted, F. Warren Stams Grand Treasurer

This year's specific achievements are described in more detail below. Kansas Masonic Oncologv Research Center.

Of that, $80,000 will be used to support the Chair. The total funds from the Foundation and the Cancer Center will total $500,000. Another $500,000 must be raised over the next five years since $1 million is required to endow a distinguished professorship in perpetuity. Since the Center opened in 1974, contributions have totaled $1,786,347. C-Club. This exclusive group of Masonic philanthropists was started in 1981 to provide support for the Oncology Research Center.

REPORT OF THE MASONIC EDUCATION COMMITTEE To the M.-. W.. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: Nineteen ninety four was an active year for the Kansas Masonic University, whichftinctionsas a part of the Masonic Education Committee. The stated purpose of KMU is to provide a comprehensive educational program developed with the goal of providing accurate information on a broad base range of Masonic subjects to arouse the interest of the Past Master, as well as the initiate. The curriculum is not designed to test a Brother's present knowledge of Masonry. It was, however, designed to help him re-discover the meaning and purpose of the Order. The 1994 Kansas Masonic University Committee was charged with the responsibility of maintaining interest and participation in Correspondence courses I thru IV, and the Ladies Course, and the grading of completed courses when they were returned. These goals were accomplished. The KMU courses were promoted and sold at Grand Lodge and the several Spring Area Meetings. The committee members manned the display table and answered questions. Brother James Stone again had the responsibility of grading all of the completed examinations; a continuing and time consuming job well done. His dedication is appreciated. Several members of the committee attended the Midwest Conference on Masonic Education, held in Wichita during May. R.-. W.-. Morris Fisher hosted the Conference this year as President of the organization. Ideas and information were exchanged with Masons from several Midwestern states and Canada. As of January, 1995, the number of Masons participating in the KMU Correspondence Courses stood at: COURSE I 1031 COURSE II 414 COURSE III 200 COURSE IV 116 In addition, 86 Masons' Ladies received the new Ladies Correspondence Course. We of the Masonic Education Committee are proud of our Brothers who are interested in becoming wiser, better, and consequently happier Masons through KMU, and we are glad to have been able to provide this service to the Craft. Fraternally and Respectfully submitted, John E. Mowen, Chairman Dwight N. Applegate Paul A. Lockwood James E. Stone Upon motion the report of the Mason Education Committee was accepted.

REPORT OF THE KANSAS MASONIC HOME
139th Annual Communication Most Worshipful Grand Lodge Ancient Free & Accepted Masons of Kansas Most Worship Sir, Officers and Members of the Craft: The Residents, Staff and Board of Trustees at your oldest "living charity," the Kansas Masonic Home, send their warmest greetings! We first want to express our deep appreciation for your continued contributions of time, talent and resources to Kansas Masonic Home. Your never-ending belief in our charity is helping Kansas Masonic Home move into its 99th year of operation. You are enabling our health professionals to maintain the same time-honored elder care that our forefathers noted in their Masonic Lodge minutes of the late 17O0's. As further stated by our Board of Trustees President, Ken Caldwell, "You extend new 'light' and dignity to people whose past charitable efforts ended with the close of another day." We all thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Our Annual Communication also provides us with an appropriate time to thank our fellow Masons for their continued commitment to our health-care mission. As members of one of the oldest fraternities in the world, your commitment represents one side of a time-honored pyramid. You support is integral to the other two sides, which are represented by people who volunteer their time and talent—our board, auxiliary members and others—and the employees who dedicate their working lives to run our day-to-day operations. Your contributions place you right alongside each and every one of us during our daily work at Kansas Masonic Home. Our next century of service is now only months away. As we approach this milestone, please keep the members of our 1996 Centennial Committee in your thoughts and prayers. They are now planning a variety of special events and observances to celebrate all of the current and past people who have made our mission great. Our fellow Masons across Kansas are certainly invited to send us historical essays or photographs which may exemplify the past work of "our living mission," and we hope many of you can join us during our celebrations. We will keep you informed through development letters and our publication. Home Base. The remainder of our communications will be a paragraphed-styled overview of our activities in terms of administration andfinance,human resources, and fraternal relations. As you know, our activities here never cease. Your health-care mission employs three service-lines to care for the people of Kansas: Masonic Towers (independent-living retirement center); Maplewood Home Care agency; and our time-honored S. Allan Daughcrty Medical Pavilion for people who need nursing home services. Administration/Finances •

REPORT OF THE CHARTERED LODGES & LODGES UNDER DISPENSATION
& TEMPLE BUILDING AND REMODELING For the 139th Annual Communication of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas: Most Worshipful Grand Master Dean Osbom, Grand Lodge Officers and Members of Grand Lodge and Brethren: The Committee had two communications relative to Chartered Lodges & Lodges Under Dispensation. On December 28, 1994, the Committee received a request from Clinton Lodge No. 233, Burden, Kansas, for approval to purchase a building and an adjoining vacant lot for $9,000.00, plus closing costs and approximately $2,000.00 for remodeling. The Committee gave its approval to proceed with the purchase. The Lodge had a $4,500.00 Certificate of Deposit and pledges from its members for the balance of the transaction. On January 11,1995, a request came from Webb Lodge No. 275, Meade, Kansas, to allow a committee to investigate various locations for a new permanent location. Their present location was built in 1906, and is no longer a safe building. The Committee gave approval to investigate a new location and to report to the Committee of their decision. Approval also was given for the Lodge to meet in the conference room of the Meade Public Library until a new location is found. On February 8,1995, a request for a Letter of Dispensation, for a Lodge Under Dispensation, for a proposed New Lodge to be Chartered as Community Daylight Lodge No. 453, Wichita, Kansas. The Grand Master issued the Letter of Dispensation February 16, 1995. The committee is pleased to report that the required information relative to a Charter being issued has been met. The First Master will be Brother James B. DeBerry, the First Senior Warden Brother Norman L. Stubbs, the First Junior Warden, Brother Boris L. Bulatkin. Afler the completion of the Committee report, I will make a motion to approve Grand Lodge to issue a Charter to Community Daylight Lodge No. 453, Wichita, Kansas. On February 13,1995, a letter was received from Webb Lodge No. 275, Meade, Kansas, requesting approval to give their present building which was built in 1906, to Daymond Brown, for salvage. The Lodge was represented by an Attorney. Approval was given to proceed with the transaction. On February 15, 1995, a request was received from Carson Lodge No. 132, Elk City, Kansas, to purchase vacant lots for a fiiture new lodge building. The Lodge had the necessary funds to purchase the lots. Approval was given for the purchase. On February 17, 1995, Scammon Lodge #351, and Prudence Lodge #100, were given permission to consolidate the Two Lodges, into Prudence Lodge # 100. Also approval was given for Scammon Lodge #351 to give its lodge building to the City of Scammon. The Grand Lodge congratulates Clinton Lodge No. 233, Webb Lodge No. 275, Prudence Lodge # 100, and Community Daylight Lodge #453 for their continued foresight to have a strong Masonic Lodge in their fine communities.

REPORT OF THE PERPETUAL LIFE MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE To the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: When the Annual Returns were sent to the Constituent Lodges at the end of 1994, there was a total of $1,227.14 credited to 35 Lodges on a total of 58 members who had taken advantage of this program. It is anticipated that this will continue to grow and in due time be most beneficial to all the Lodges who have Brethren who have participated. The income into the Fund was not nearly as large as it should have been. The Committee was informed by the then Grand Secretary that the funds were all deposited by the end of 1993 that had been received in 1993. This was not the case. The Committee met with the investment firm and it was believed that there should be enough income to pay out at 7% less the investment fee and the growth factor. The first year does not look too good, but it should be much better in the future if the rates on investment will remain at the 7% level. We have not put applications for the Memorial Fund out to the Lodges as of yet, but if we get a couple of bugs ironed out on the computer program, it is planned that this will soon be in place. The members of this Committee thank the Brethren of this Grand Lodge for their patience and hope that they will bear with us as we endeavor to get this Life Membership Program running smoothly. Fraternally submitted, Melbum C. Barnes, Chairman Merlin R. Grundy William G. Updegrove
F. Warren Stams, PGM, Grand Treasurer Don E. Robinett, PGM, Grand Secretary
Chairman Barnes added to this report that the factoring had been work out and deposits were up to date. The annual meeting of the Corporation is to be held at 4:30 pm. Upon motion the report was accepted. Bill Updegrove was nominated and elected to the Perpetual Life Membership Board. REPORT OF THE MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE To The M.'. W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas; The primary focus of the Membership Committee continued to be the "Prospect Night" program that is used to educate non-masons about our worthy fraternity and the "Masonic Renewal 2000" program that asks lodges to become active in membership development, community involvement, family relations and leadership. These two programs have been used with great success by many lodges and these lodges have reported a significant increase in degree work and public awareness in their communities. The Membership Committee has been very active working in all parts of Kansas. In addition to the members of the committee listed at the end of this report, an additional 17 dedicated Brother Masons have assisted the committee in its labors. These brothers are M.-. W.-. William J. Brown, PGM, Stanley Browning, Charles Singhisen, Tom Welsh, John Mowen, Maurice Heam, William Updegrove, D. B. Schwartzkoff, M.-. W.-. Conrad F. Johnson, PGM, M.. W.-. Don E. Robinett, PGM, R.. W.-. Monis Fisher, DGM, Buck Aldrich, R.-. W.-. Carveth Neer, GS W, Warren Henrie, Sterling Hombuckle, Tom Roberts and Raymond Howell. The members of the committee and the other brothers that assisted were assigned districts where they were to help the lodges in those districts to have successful "Prospect Nights" and then to retain these new members by keeping them active within the lodge through the "Masonic Renewal 2000" program. 1 believe more than ever that those lodges that are truly interested in returning Masonry to its previous place of prominence within each community will succeed in their endeavors with the help of these two programs. However, if a lodge shows no interest in helping itself, then even the best of programs will not be successful in those lodges. In the past three years, we have seen our degree work across the state increase significantly each year and with continued efforts on behalf of additional lodges each year, our membership problems will become more manageable.

The Membership cortmiittee is always available to assist any lodge to have a successful "Prospect Night." If just 50% of the lodges across our state worked to have a successful "Prospect Night," then our membership would show an increase. The entire committee would like to express our appreciation to our Most Worshipfiil Grand Master, E. Dean Osbom, for his leadership and for the opportunity that each member of the committee has had to serve the Grand Lodge of Kansas. Fraternally, Jeffrey L.

AMERICAN HERITAGE PUBLIC SCHOOL MONTH Letters were sent to each local lodge enlisting their support and encouraging them to hold a special program during the month of February commemorating our American Heritage. We were unable to have the usual signing of the proclamation by the Governor in December but plans were completed by January. Therefore, we requested each lodge to make their usual plans and urged them to have their Education Committee present a program on our American Heritage during the month of February. TOTAL YOUTH The committee has endeavored to support the three state youth organizations as well as the local groups. Each committee member serves other Masonic organizations and we have missed visiting as many of the youth groups as we had planned. There were many conflicting dates as events fell on the same days.

RECOMMENDATIONS After questioning many Masonic Brethren we found that most believed the Masonic Public Essay Contest one of the most important activities conducted by the Grand Lodge. The involvement of the youth and schools does much to present Masoniy to the public and future Masons. The committee therefore recommends that the scholarshipfijndbe established at six thousand dollars a year. We must not try to operate on an income which is fifteen years behind time. There are areas in the budget which could be eliminated untilfinancesare increased. The majority of the committee also recommends that the gender classification for our Public School Essay contest be eliminated and the amount of the scholarship be combined. CONCLUSION The committee thanks the Grand Master for allowing us the privilege to serve the Craft. We also thank the Grand Lodge office staff for their assistance. Our thanks to the essay judges for contributing their time and knowledge. Yours in service for Masonry, Conrad F. Johnson, PGM, Chairman James W. Gilmore Kenneth Morrison

3/17/95 Grand Lodge Session, Salina, Kansas Good Afternoon: It is indeed an honor to be afforded the opportunity to address this Agust Body. The subject of my discussion with you today is that of Masonic Unity. In early 1993 under the Most Worshipful Bill Brown, Albert Pike Lodge, Wichita consistory, and Midian Shrine, we began holding meetings in which matters of mutual interest were discussed, more specifically, membership, which became our new focus in South Central and Southwestern Kansas. In 1994 under the leadership of Most Worshipful Dean Osbom we earned our wings. With the assistance of Craig Woodson, Then Master of Albert Pike Lodge, Most Worshipful Tom Raum, Past Potentate and S.G.I.G. of Scottish Rite in Kansas along with Secretary John Myers, Trustees of the Wichita Consistory, and leadership of Midian Shrine temple, our focus and our motto became MASONIC UNITY. I am here to advise you that Masonic Unity is alive - well and growing in Kansas today. Edward H. Fowler, Jr., Past Right Worshipfiil Grand Master of the state of Pennsylvania said: "Unique bonds of friendship between Freemasons enabled them to remain brothers undivided even as they fought as a divided nation." Today we, as Freemasons, are engaged in another battle this time the battle is within our own fraternity. To overcome this destructive diversity we must once again exercise our bonds offriendshipby joining together with our brothers to preserve this great fraternity. I believe the next few years afford to us a rare opportunity, however our success is dependent upon: 1) our learning to work together 2) to be motivated not by the division of the past but rather by the opportunities of the future. We as Freemasons are cognizant of the fact that when we join hands in u-nan-I-mity we ÂŁan and ds accomplish our stated missions. If we are to accomplish this mission we must close the book of complacency and retire it from our library. We must replace complacency with actions, progressive thoughts and new ideals. We all must become leaders of vision in order that we meet the challenge that has been placed before us. We must break down the old barriers which have been so destructive in years past. We must remember that we first are brothers bound together by our oaths and some of us have elected to provide assistance and leadership within our own Blue Lodges. Others elected to travel as far as York Rite or Scottish Rite or both. And these men elect to participate at the Rite levels and provide leadership in their Noble cause. Approximately 30% (nationally) elect to join the Shrine to work and plan and support what has become known as the World's Greatest Philanthropv. Fortunately, due to our fraternity's broad appeal there is a niche for all our brothers and we must support their cause as well as our own if we are to reclaim the position we once held within this society. The slogan for the Nobility of Midian Shrine Temple in 1994 was "Unity in the Masonic Community". The Nobility of Midian worked unceasingly to break down the barriers between themselves and other entities. I am proud to say that our Nobility did not retreat but moved forward under the leadership of Midian's Membership Committee, (Nobles Ron Capps, Paul Morris, and Myron Frick). We enlisted the assistance and the support of members of Albert Pike Lodge, namely then Worshipful Master Craig Woodson and our own Grand Master, Dean Osbom, Secretary of the Wichita Consistory, John Myers, 33 and the Scottish Rite S.G.I.G., Most Worshipful Tom Raum, P.P.. We received support from Grand Commander, Joe Randall, and Wichita Secretary/Recorder, J.C. Paschal. This two year project, has resulted in an All Masonic Membership Committee formed by the members of the Craf^ Lodges, York Rite, Scottish Rite Bodies, and the Shrine. Meetings have been held and now all the Bodies are working together to recruit members at the Blue Lodge level as well as at their own level.

Proceedings of The

This program will afford to the Craft Lodge's Membership Committees, the additional assistance of Scottish Rite, York Rite, and Shrine Masons recruiting at the Blue Lodge level. Why is that important? Because Masonry needs good men and because every Rite Bodied Mason and every Shrine Mason imderstands that is order for their Bodies to survive, a prospect must fulfill his prerequisite requirements. Allow me to share with you a letter in part from the Imperial Potentate Burton Ravellette, Jr. to the new Temple Potentates for 1995. I read in part: "1 would like to make some recommendations that could be helpful to your Shrine Temple and Freemasonry. The Imperial Fratemal Relations committee recently met and made some suggestions to me which I feel are very important to the future of our great fraternity. These recommendations were presented at the January meeting of the Join Boards and were unanimously approved. If your Temple is not already doing so, I strongly encourage you to consider implementing the following:" In our area we have implemented the Imperial Sir's suggested programs, and 1 am told by our 1995 leaders of Grand Lodge, York Rite, Scottish Rite, and Shrine Temples that they will continue - the Unity program. Both the Wichita Consistory and Midian Shrine with support of the Grand Lodge and Blue Lodges in our area hosted non-Masonic programs in 1994. The area Blue Lodges over the Grand Master's signature invited non-Masons of their choice to Masonic Informational Meetings. Grand Lodge and Blue Lodge Officers explained in detail what we as Masons stood for and outlined the activities and responsibilities to guests. Following the presentation, was a question and answer period. Grand Lodge, Craft Lodges, Rite Bodies, and Shrine throughout 1994 in our area held a number of activities and invited all the brothers to attend as their guests. Midian Shrine was the recipient of a plaque from Albert Pike Lodge citing Midian's leadership in the area of Masonic Unity. In addition, at Midian's Awards Banquet we invited as our guest representativesfi'omall entities, and the Kansas Grand Line in total honored us with their presence. This was a first in Midian's history. As Midian's representative, I was honored to be the recipient of the Grand Master's Award. The leaders of the Grand Lodge, Scottish Rite, and York Rite Masonry were honored by the presentation of gifts and plaquesfromMidian in appreciation for their support of Masonic unity. Midian changed their Ceremonial Parades to All Masonic Parades in 1994. We formerly paraded with 20-25 units on the street. By expanding our Parade to include all Masonic Bodies, each Parade increased to well over 60 Parade Units. Most of the increase coming from participation by the grand Lodge Line,, Kansas Masonic Home, Scottish Ritefloats,York Rite Drill Teams, Order of the eastem Star, Ladies of the Oriental Shrine, Job's Daughters, Rainbow Girls, and DeMolay. Blue Lodge's, Rite Bodies, and the Shrine have all shared their facilities, invited all their brethren to participate in Masonic events. Not only have we opened our doors to each other but more importantly opened our hearts to the total Masonic Community. For the past two years the Grand Lodge, Blue Lodge, Scottish Rite, and Shrine have been working together to recruit men at all levels. We in Kansas were the first to initiate one day classes. Kansas Masonry is the acknowledged leader in the field. It is accepted nationally that we stand on the cutting edge. Kansas Masonry has established an amnesty program to permit restoration to suspended members upon payment of current year dues. And in Kansas, we have taken one additional step. I believe it to possibly be our greatest accomplishment in 1994. All Masonic entities, appendant Bodies, Ladies and Youth organizations joined together in a 1994 project which we call the "Kansas Masonic Mile of Food". In our first year, we raised in excess of $27,000 andfilled(17) eighteen wheeler truck transports with caimed goods. As a result, Kansas Masons, Eastem Star and appendant Bodies proudly distributed food to those in our communities less fortunate than we. The kick off for the 1995 program is at hand and I ask each and every one of you to support the 1995 program with your dollars. Send as many of them as you can to the Grand Lodge office in Topeka. Your checks should be made payable to the Grand Master's Relief Fund.

I would like to direct your attention to an article which is appearing in Shrine Temple publications throughout North America. It features the Grand Lodge of Kansas, Scottish Rite and Shrine in an article entitled "Cooperative Approach to Masonic and Shrine Membership Achieves Success Beyond Expectations". Again Kansas and our Grand Master is at the forefront and is prominently quoted throughout the article. The article outlines Kansas successes of one day classes, and acknowledges that the program is: "based on the realization that Masonry and the Shrine must streamline the membership process in order to attract the busy men of today's society." Masonic Unitv is credited by ALL for the success we have experienced. Those associated with these new programs know that inter-fraternal support benefits all Masons and Masonry. Our fall from graces and our loss of membership is clear. You remember, as I, the differences in our thought processes, and accepted social value versus that of our grandfathers and yes even our fathers. Today again; times have changed, people have changed, and this has always been a reality of our history. Now it is time, yes even past time, for we the Masonic Community to change and modernize our fraternity so that we can attract the 35-55 age group. We desperately need good new men who will, if we afford them the opportunity, be the future leaders of our fraternity. We in Kansas, as continue to build on our 1993 & 1994 joint successes, will cause Freemasonry to come alive with a renewed spirit of friendship, fellowship, brotherhood, and camaraderie unprecedented in our time. This debt we owe our Masonic forefathers and those good men we will recruit and accept as our new brothers who will lead us into the 21 st Century.

REPORT OF THE FOREIGN RELATIONS COMMITTEE To the M.-. W.-. Grand Master and Members of Grand Lodge Assembled: This Committee has, in our history, been the sole determiner and presenter of those most important of all Masonic connections: REGULARITY AND RECOGNITION. We therefore express our appreciation to M.-. W.-. E. Dean Osbom for his confidence in us and for our appointment. Kansas Masonry has had a long and honored tradition of the quality of Masons who make up this committee. Our immediate predecessor was ill: John D. (Jack) Cunningham who was known nationally and internationally for his leadership as Executive Director of the Masonic Service Association. He served as chair of this committee until his death in 1977. Our present committee has served continuously since that date with the exception of the 1992-1993 year and even then we were requested to give information, aid and help to the members of the Grand Lodge in the arena of fraternal relationships. This committee is one that requires years of knowledge and understanding of the world-wide Masonic situation. Some major areas under discussion in Masonry today relate directly to recognition and regularity relationships, (i.e. Prince Hall, Shrine and changes inritualisticpresentations of Masonic lessons). One of the major factors affecting the reports of this committee is that the Commission on Information for the Recognition of the Conference of the Grand Masters of Masons in North America meets the last of February and our Grand Lodge meets too soon following the commission meeting for their decision to be published and presented in that same year to our Grand Lodge. Our being "one year late" has advantages and that time always works to our advantage for we have yet to undo a hasty decision. We will give an overview of the committee work this year and present our recommendations. BRAZIL: GRAND ORIENT: We refused a request to consider recognition of the Grand Orient. GRAND LODGE OF GOIAS: The Grand Secretary requested recognition. We requested that our Grand Secretary reply that they already have recognition and we have exchanged Personal Representatives. Perhaps problems with Grand Secretaries are universal. FRANCE: GRAND LODGE NATIONAL: Informed us that they have withdravra recognition from the GRAND ORIENT OF ITALY and THE GRAND LODGE OF GREECE. (Translation by Fraimcoise J. Recob of Kansas). We have not so withdrawn and neither has the Commission on Information. GHANA-WA: LODGE H 9343 OF UNITED GRAND LODGE OF ENGLAND: Requested personal financial aid. We refused and, later. United Grand Lodge issued a strong directive against their own lodge for this breach of ethics. GREECE: GRAND LODGE OF GREECE: Received document giving testimony to their regularity. We have not withdrawn recognition from the Grand Lodge of Greece nor have we extended recognition to the newly formed NATIONAL GRAND LODGE OF GREECE. ITALY: GRAND LODGE OF ITALY: We recognize the GRAND ORIENT and not the newlyformed REGULAR GRAND LODGE OF ITALY. PRINCE HALL FREEMASONRY: In March 1994 at the last regular communication of the Grand Lodge WE VOTED TO RECOGNIZE THE PRINCE HALL CHARTER AS REGULAR AND LEGITIMATE. We are pleased to announce that on DECEMBER 14,1994 THE BOARD OF GENERAL PURPOSE OF THE UNITED GRAND LODGE OF ENGLAND BROUGHT A UNANIMOUS RECOMMENDATION TO THEIR GRAND LODGE THAT "THE PRINCE HALL GRAND LODGE OF MASSACHUSETTS SHOULD NOW BE ACCEPTED

AS REGULAR AND BE RECOGNIZED". The Document included the basic principles of recognition and a short history of Prince Hall Masonry including the fact that all Prince Hall Grand Lodges are now descended from the Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Massachusetts. Based on last year's action, the Chairman of this committee and the Chair of a like group in Kansas Prince Hall have been communicating. We feel that the time has come for some social interaction between the Grand Lodge Officers of each of our respective Grand Lodges and our Grand Master is in fiill accord. We therefore recommend that: THE MOST WORSHIPFUL GRAND LODGE OF AF & AM OF KANSAS MOVE TO ESTABLISH COMMUNICATION WITH THE PRINCE HALL GRAND LODGE AF & AM OF KANSAS AND ITS JURISDICTION LOOKING FORWARD TO DIALOGUE AND JOINT SOCIAL ACTIVITIES. GRAND LODGE OF SENEGAL: WE RECOMMEND RECOGNITION OF THE GRAND LODGE OF SENEGAL with an exchange of greetings and Personal Representatives. This Committee wishes to thank the Grand Lodge Staff and those who volunteer their services in translation for their courtesy and assistance during this past Grand Lodge year. Submitted: Forrest D. Haggard, PGM, Chairman Ben W. Boyles, PGM, Member Raymond D. Hough, Member Grand Master: I move the acceptance of this report as a whole and the adoption of the resolutions contained therein. REPORT OF THE RITUALISTIC COMMITTEE To the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge of AF&AM of Kansas: The Committee has had an extremely busy year. Thefirstand foremost task assigned by our Grand Master was to continue to edit and finalize the Combined Cipher Monitor. The Committee has met in five sessions to edit the printed and revised copy. In addition, each of the committee has spent numerous hours individually going over copy. We feel that by this Grand Lodge Session we will have available the completed product. We have diligently and carefiilly done our best. However, we are sure that undoubtly there will be something we have missed in typing or printing errors. Please remember that those errors will be just for that reason and not a devious plot to change anything. The Grand Master also charged the committee to prepare instruction on the conferring of the Degrees on Multiple Candidates. (Two but not more that three candidates). This has been accomplished and referred to each Lodge in this jurisdiction. It is the recommendation of this committee that, afler a period of familiarization, a resolution be placed before the 1996 session of Grand Lodge to approve this as an optional method of conferring the Degrees. If approved, each Grand Master would no longer be required to issue written approval for his term of office. A school for the Grand Lecturers was held at Clearwater in August. We reviewed and worked on the instructions for Multiple Conferral of the degrees and studied the ritual and floor plans. The District Meetings were assigned and a format was developed. The Committee has also been charged with reviewing and revising the guidelines for the Perfect Attendance Award at the Annual District Meetings to make the award a meaningful accomplishment. It is the decision of this committee that the Treasurer will no longer be excluded and must be present at the meeting for the Lodge to receive perfect attendance. In addition, all requests for exceptions to the guidelines will be presented in writing to the Grand Master for his decision. These decisions were placed into effect January 1, 1995, but it seems they were not properly communicated and all were not made aware of the changes. Each Lodge that had the required officers in attendance, except the Treasurer, at the 1995 meetings will receive the Perfect Attendance Award.

The Round Robin and J. Fred Williamson Ritualistic competitions will be held in February and the winners announced at the Grand Lodge Awards program. We sincerely encourage more Brothers and Lodges to participate in these events. The Committee has been working to update and revise the Grand Lodge Officers Manual. This project is approximately two-thirds complete at this time. The Council of Administration requested a poll be taken to determine interest in two questions. The questions were; Is there sufficient interest among the Lodges to: 1. Place the Lectiu-es on Video Tape as an optional method of presenting the Lectures. 2. Develop a Shorter Form of Closing Lodge as an optional Method of Closing. The response was received from 191 Lodges. Lectiu'ers on Video tape 128 Yes 63 No Shorter Form of Closing 54 Yes 137 No This information has been forwarded to the Council of Administration. Attendance at the District Meetings has improved this year. Our appreciation goes to our Grand Master for his support and letter of encouragement to all the Lodges. We want to thank all of the Grand Lecturers for their devotion and service to the fratemity. You are a special group of men who travel long distances and give of yourselves unselfishly. My personal appreciation goes to the four members of this committee who have each been personally committed and spent long hours to difficult tasks. You are special jewels in our crown. The members of this committee wish to thank M.-. W.-. Dean Osbom and his Council of Administration for their support and for giving us the opportunity to serve our fratemity.

Dean Osbom and the Grand Lodge of AF& AM of Kansas as its Activities Committee for the year 1994/1995. Our Committee was not involved directly in many activities for the Grand Master or the Grand Lodge this year, but did assist when assistance was requested and performed some important planning for Grand Lodge activities in the future. The 17th aimual Masonic Retreat was held over the Labor Day weekend at the Rock Springs 4-H Ranch located south of Junction City. Nearly 100 Masonic Brothers, wives and families and friends from all parts of the state of Kansas enjoyed a great weekend. The accommodations, the food, the activities, and the time to enjoy great Matonic fellowship all combined to make this a wonderful,fiin,and relaxing time for all those who attended.

Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: In 1994 the committee took part in nine Masonic activities, with an audience of 1,441 Masons and members of Appendant Bodies, their families and friends. We were proud to have been asked by the Grand Master to provide a color guard for the Grand Flag Bearer at the opening ceremonies of the Grand Lodge on March 18, 1994. Our activities also included providing a color guard and posting of the colors at other functions, and "Building the Flag," which was developed by committee member Brother Myron Wilson. In addition to our Masonic activities, our committee presented programs at 25 non-Masonic functions, viewed by an audience of 2,314 persons. These programs were presented to schools, churches, fraternal, civic and youth groups. We have received a unanimous positive response from these groups and feel that the program presents Masonry in a very favorable light. We also have been told that we have introduced many in our audience to material they had never previously learned about the origins of our country and flag. Again, we urge each Lodge to establish a Patriotism Committee and an ongoing Patriotic program. The committee will assist in preparing such a program on request. Fratemally submitted, Donald S.

But more than this, they need the personal understanding of someone who cares. The Grand Lodge of Kansas has an outstanding program that fulfills that need. OPERATION "KAN" offers visitation and understanding to newly made amputees and their families. This one-on-one contact is an invaluable service to those who are in need of a morale boost and promotion of a feeling of well-being. Fratemally submitted, Glenn L.

REPORT OF THE COUNCIL OF ADIMINISTRATION To the M/. W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas; The initial meeting of the COA was called to order on March 17, 1994 by M.-. W.-. William J. Brown. The purpose of the meeting was to elect new officers of the COA. A motion was made, seconded, and passed to elect E. Dean Osbom as President, Morris Fisher as Vice President, and Jeffrey L. Sowder as Secretary. Other Council of Administration meetings were held on March 29, April 30, May 21, June 2, July 23 and 30, August 12, September 17, November 10, and December 10, 1994. This has been a very eventful year for the COA with the resignation of the former Grand Secretary. Following the resignation, a fiill audit was performed and a new method of keeping the financial records of Grand Lodge was installed. Mrs. Deborah Kennamore was hired by the COA as the new Grand Lodge office manager and M.. W.-. Don E. Robinett - PGM was appointed as the new Grand Secretary. Several requests were received throughout the year for charity from deserving individuals with a particular need. The COA approved all honorable requests that were within the by-laws. The Grand Master's Charity Fund was started with the donations receivedfromthe cooperativefimdraising venture between Grand Lodge, the Kansas Masonic Foundation, and the Kansas Masonic Home. Special guidelines for the use of this fund were set up at the December COA meeting. One of the highlights of the year was granting permission for the establishment of the Knight Masons of the United States in Kansas. This action was taken at the December 10 meeting. Many other items were acted upon by the COA during the year and the minutes of each of these meetings are on file at the Grand Lodges office in Topeka. Peace and harmony prevailed at all COA meetings as we worked for the good of Kansas Masonry. Respectfully submitted, Jeffrey L. Sowder - GJW Secretary - Council of Administration Upon motion the report of the Council of Administration was approved. REPORT OF THE LIBRARY COMMITTEE To the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: The Grand Lodge Library has received 3 hardcover books and 4 paperback books. These have been indexed and are on the shelf The Grand Lodge Library committee is recommending books not be checked out of the Library without contacting Deborah Kennamore or Jean Rader, and establishing a definite time for the book to be returned. The library has lost 21 books to people who have checked out books and never returned them. They are books on Masonry which others might like to read, but now are unable to enjoy. Therefore, if you must have a book to read at home, please arrange with someone at the library when the book will be returned Submitted, Charles S.

REPORT OF THE CORRESPONDENCE COMMITTEE To the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: The Correspondence Committee consists of one member, the Chairman. The office of the Grand Secretary sends the Chairman of the Correspondence Committee noticesfromother Grand Lodges of deaths of leaders in their Grand Jurisdiction. For example, a Grand Lodge Officer or Past Grand Master or other dignitary of a particular Grand Lodge. When I receive such a notice I will write a letter to the Grand Master and the Grand Secretary expressing the sympathy of the Grand Master and the Grand Lodge Officers and the Masons of this Jurisdiction over the loss of their distinguished Brother. In any event, the sister Grand Jurisdiction will at least know that the Kansas Grand Lodge has taken note of the passing of their distinguished Brother. In any case where 1 have the name and address of the surviving family, I have written to the surviving member a letter of condolence. I am not aware of what effect my letters may have on the Grand Jurisdictions involved, but it seems to me that the passing of one Brother affects us all, whether or not it is in our own jurisdiction or a sister jurisdiction. 1 have appreciated my service on the Correspondence Committee and 1 thank our Grand Master for his cooperation and support. Respectfully submitted, Arthur C. Hodgson, PGM, Chairman Upon motion the report was accepted.
REPORT OF THE TAXATION COMMITTEE To the M.. W.-. Grand Master, Grand Officers, the Worshipful Masters, Wardens and all members of Kansas Masonry: I come before you this day to say a tremendous thank you. Thank you for your help, aid, assistance and prayers. Thank you for being patient, understanding and for your support and encouragement. We hope by now all of you are aware of the tax reduction your Lodge received for the calendar year of 1994. In general the reduction amounted to a 50% adjustment and in some cases as much as 60%. One year ago we came before you at the suggestion of our Counsel and then Grand Master and asked that you sign a letter of request. This was attached to a letter directed to the Kansas Legislature and in particular the State Senate. We feel this has a very positive effect on them, so we all share in measure this accomplishment and once again thank you. The County Appraisers have been thoroughly schooled in making adjustments to appraisal to your property. You must stay alert to this situation. Always be sure when examining your tax statement that some normal item of maintenance has not been added as a structural improvement. Recently we heard a Congressman in Washington, DC state that the country was better off when the churches and fraternal Orders were taking care of the individual community needs. No one knows if this will come to pass again. Yet as we read the history of our fraternity, our greatest hours came when we answered the call and needs of our members and communities. Logically it would seem that this Committee, having accomplished its purpose would now be discharged. But we must point out two items of litigation still pending as of this writing.

Proceedings of The
March
First, our suit against the County was joined by a second party. (See details 1993-94 Proceedings pg. 119120). They in turn are seeking refund of taxes for the year of 1993. Our position is to allow them whatever action they feel necessary. Our Legal Counsel and our Coimcil of Administration feels we should take a "wait and see" approach, their thinking being that we should not jeopardize our position. Secondly, we are locked in a suit with the County over the appraisal valuation of the Grand Lodge building. Whatever future this beautiful old citadel of Kansas Masonry may have, we feel it necessary to hold the tax base to as reasonable a figure as possible. Hopefully, before our Annual Communication both of these matters will be resolved. Yet realistically, it may be necessary to submit an amended report or at best an addendum to this report. Again, thank you M.-. W.-. Sir and each of you for allowing us this opportunity of service to our beloved Fraternity, Albert O. Arnold Jr., GSE, Chairman With the decision to lower taxes on fraternal organizations, the chairman estimated the Grand Lodge and other appendant bodies will save (estimate only) one million two hundred thousand dollars over time.

REPORT OF THE NECROLOGY COMMITTEE To the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: Most Worshipful Grand Master and brethren. Once again at the end of another year we pause to pay tribute to those of our fraternity who have been called to their heavenly rest. Our Grand Lodge suffered the loss of 1,452 of our brethren during the past year. We are grateful that the line of our Grand Lodge Officers has not been broken this year. Their presence at our Grand Lodge session to fulfill the duties of their various places and stations is most notable. We were most saddened and the Masons of Kansas deeply mourn the demise of M.-. W.-. Ralph D. Walker, PGM, who gave so much of his time and talents to our beloved Fraternity serving in various capacities before and after serving as our Grand Master in 1976. Thus we close this report with prayers in our hearts for the families of the departed. We bid you now a kind farewell. Perhaps to see you never; But in our hearts your memories dwell Forever-yes, forever. Then fare ye well ye loved ones all. May heavenly grace attend you. To wait the Orients Master's call. And may his love defend you. And when our work on earth is o'er. And we havefilledour station, Though tempest rise and oceans roar. With sweeping desolation. Our home is bright beyond the fide. Where partings grieve us never. Nor party names of creeds divide. Our harmony forever. Respectfully submitted, Carroll C. Amett, PGM, Chairman Upon motion the report was accepted. M.-. 1.-.

REPORT OF THE JURISPRUDENCE COMMITTEE To the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: This report covers a time from the ending of the Grand Lodge in Salina 1994 through the time of the making of this report. The function of the cominittee is set forth in By-Law 2-119. The committee has had an exceeding light docket this year. This is undoubtly due to the fact that our Grand Master has had many years as a full time Lodge Secretary professional, and is well versed in the law and procedure. No formal requests were received for interpretation of the Constitution or By-Laws, although there were a number of face to face discussions with various members of the committee who responded orally and not in writing. There are a number of actions to be taken today and the remainder of the report will consist of the several motions to place them on the floor for action. First, the Jurisprudence Committee recommends Grand Lodge approval of the Edicts and Orders of the Most Worshipfiil Grand Master, E. Dean Osbom, I move the adoption of this recommendation. Motion carried. A number of amendments to the Laws of Masonry were presented at the Grand Lodge session one year ago. Some are the proposals of our then incoming Grand Master. Copies have more recently been furnished again to each lodge. While these proposals would make many changes wefindnothing in them that should prohibit them from being considered. We believe that the Grand Master is entitled to have his recommendations presented in an affirmative manner and then it is up to the membership to say that they either agree or disagree. So taking up the various proposals in somewhat random order: PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE LAWS OF KANSAS MASONRY Proposition #1 Proposed Change to By-Law 3-424: 3-424. Display of Flag. - A United States Flag of suitable size, and of such material as the Lodge may determine, must be displayed in the Lodge room at every Communication. If the colors are to be presented and posted, the Master will raise the Lodge prior to the color party entering the room. When the color party enters, all present will stand silently facing the alter, right hand over heart, as the color bearers and escorts march to the East and turn to face the West. All present will then turn to face the colors. The Master mav then direct the Lodge to recite the Pledge of Allegiance and/or to sing the National Anthem. The Flag Bearer then places the Flag in the stand, the Master seats the Lodge and the color partv retires. When retiring the colors at the end of the Communication, the color partv takes its position in the East and the Master raises the Lodge. All present stand silentlv. right hand over heart, as the color bearer removes the flag from its stand, and the party marches to the West. The flag bearer mav hold a portion of the flag against the staff onlv when lowering the staff to pass through a doorway.

Constitution,
Art. X, Sec. 6; By-Laws,
Rationale: Far too often a petition is rejected because of someone's personal vendetta. This is reality as most of us have experienced this very situation in our Lodges. Our Mother Grand Lodge, in England, recognized this fact just 6 years after forming the Mother Grand Lodge of the World in 1717 and changed their code accordingly in 1723. It' s a little embarrassing to think it has taken us 271 years to give it consideration. If 'a petitioner is not qualified to be a Mason, the member knowing this should feel a moral and Masonic obligation to privately inform the investigation committee, or the Master of his Lodge, so the committee can better perform their duty to the Lodge. If this is not done, and the committee turns in a favorable report, and a petition is rejected by one negative vote, we have then put ourselves in the embarrassing position of challenging the integrity of the petitioner's recommender as well as challenging the integrity of the investigating committee. Remember, the recommender is your Brother and the committee is a representative of your Lodge and the entire Fraternity. Over the years, we have lost the benefit of many fine gentlemen who would have been an asset and credit to our Fraternity because they have refused to petition an organization which allows one member to keep anyone out.

PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE LAWS OP KANSAS MASONRY Proposition #17 Proposed Change to By-Law 4-124: 4-124. Exclusive Jurisdiction Over Petitioners for Mysteries. When a Lodge receives a petition of a candidate for the Mysteries, it thereby acquires exclusive jurisdiction over him. If the petitioner is accepted, such jurisdiction continues until waivorcd by the—Lodga such time as the petitioner or candidate shall transfer his status in the same manner as a Master Mason or until the Lodge becomes extinct. If the petitioner is rejected, such right of jurisdiction oontinuoo only for—oiic montho—after •uoh rojoGtion shall cease to exist. (Amended 1982). Cross
Reference:
Constitution, Art. IX, Sec. 2.
Rationale for Change: 1.
An Entered Apprentice or Fellow Craft should be allowed to transfer to another Lodge in a more expeditious manner. Because of the lengthy process of seeking a waiver and petitioning another Lodge for advancement, many Entered Apprentices and Fellow Crafts lose their enthusiasm to complete their Degrees. If only Secretaries were allowed to vote on this proposal, it would easily pass because it would save them a mountain of paper work.
2.
If a Lodge rejects a petition, it should not prevent another Lodge from receiving a petition from the same petitioner if they so desire. As the By-Lato/ 4-124 now stands, it can be construed as being in conflict with Landmark XVI which states: "That no Lodge can interfere in the business or labor of another Lodge".

PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE LAWS OP KANSAS MASONRY Proposition #15 Proposed Change to By-Law 4-212: 4-212. Work on Several Candidates. - The only portions of the work that may be conferred upon more than one candidate at the same time are the following: the proficiency examination, the presentation of working tools, the second section of the Second Degree and the lectures and charges of the several DegreeSj. except bv special dispensation from the Grand Master. Cross
Reference:
By-Laws, Sec. 3-402.
Rationale: Conferring Degrees on two or three candidates at a time in no way diminishes the Degree. It has just the opposite effect. Candidates taking the Degrees together establish an immediate bond and thus are instantly introduced to one of the great benefits of Masonic membership, that being the mystic tie that binds all Masons together. This also allows for a father and son, brother and brother, or friend and friend to establish an even closer bond between one another. It should be to Masonry's credit that we can offer this added benefit.- This in no way is a fundamental change in Masonry because many states have always conferred multiple Degrees.

PROPOSED AMEKDMENTS TO THE LAWS OF KANSAS MASONRY Proposition #12 Proposed Change to By-Law 4-215: 4-215. Obligations, How Taken. - The obligations of the several Degrees must be taken in the name of God, and cannot be taken by mere affirmation but can be taken bv confirmation in such a manner as outlined bv the Committee on Ritual. Rationale: Some Lodges find it advantageous for the Master to repeat the entire obligation and have the candidate give his assent. The theory being that if the candidate repeats every five words, his train of thought is interrupted 71 times in the First Degree obligation, 71 times in the Second Degree obligation, and 136 times in the Third Degree obligation and, therefore, does not comprehend what he is obligation himself to. If the Lodges are going to do it anyway, we are powerless to stop them and just as well make it legal in a prescribed manner. An affirmation simply says "I do". A prescribed confirmation would have more substance and impress upon the candidate's mind the seriousness of his commitment. Passed [><] Rejected [ ] Withdrawn[ ]

REPORT OF THE CHURCH-LODGE RELATIONS To the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: I would like to express the appreciation of the members of this committee to our Grand Master, Most Worshipful E. Dean Osbom, for the privilege of serving the Grand Lodge of Kansas, and to continue to pursue the relations between the Church and Lodge. We would also add our personal congratulations on a productive and successful year. This committee continues to be available to those Lodges who might be encountering difficulties in their communities with local church people. Emphasis by each Lodge and all the members must continue to establish and stress that Masonry is not a religion but does have a strong foundation in the belief of a Supreme Creator and guide for this life and the journey to that house not made by hands. It is our Masonic duty toward the Church, toward the Synagogue, toward the Temple, and also toward the ministers, priests, religious leaders and all peoples, 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. We must strive to continually teach by precept and example, not by argument. That is the challenge that comes before each of the brethren, and may the Supreme Architect of the Universe guide us and strengthen us to be worthy of this great trust. Fraternally submitted, R. T. Wentling, Chairman

REPORT OF THE GRAND SECRETARY To the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: When R.-. W.-. A. Kevin Kobler retired on June 2, 1994, it became the duty of oiu- Grand Master to appoint an Interim Grand Secretary, and it was my privilege to be appointed to that office. At the same time the Grand Secretary Office was changed to an office manager arrangement and this has worked out better than we could have hoped for. Deborah Kennamore was hired as office manager and the rest of the staff was retained. They have all performed far above the call of duty in straightening out what could at best be called a mess. We have all learned and worked together in the transition. The Annual Reports went out thefirstpart of December with a request from the Council of Administration to please have the reports and per capita checks back to the Grand Lodge office by January 10, 1995. This allows a complete and thorough audit of each report and entry of all the information into the computer. In order to keep the cost of printing to a minimum, the Advance Report had to be to the printer by February 10,1995. Working with all new software, some reports went out sooner than others, but thanks to our "tried and true" secretaries, they worked within that time frame. Thank you, Secretaries! A special thanks to Robert S. Truesdell Jr., new Secretary of Wyandotte No. 3, who managed to pull his report out of thin air! The computer system was upgraded this year and seems to be running very smoothly. The challenge is that all new programs must be written for everything we send out such as the Annual Reports, award pin rosters, membership rosters, and so forth. Brother Stanley Halstead has been, and continues to be, the "brains behind the computer". Programs are being written and tested, and our next year should be even better. Thank you, Stanley, for giving all the "extras" when needed. Your Craft and co-workers appreciate your patience in teaching the computer! As all of you know who work on computers, training is a constant, and Stanley and the staff work very well together. Stanley will continue through this year as a consultant hired on a part-time basis. The office personnel has had some changes this year. Tanya Artzer was hired October 13, 1994. She has already made herself "impossible to do without". She is a tireless bundle of energy. She is engaged, and if she can squeeze in some days off this year, she plans to marry. She has two children, Shawna, age 9, and T. J., age 5. Tanya handles supplies, payroll, bulk mailings and supervises all the part-time workers. She is a pleasure to work with. Becky Wasson is doing the data entry. She is the one who looks over all the Activity Reports and Annual Reports. Becky is involved with many interests outside Grand Lodge. She is a member of the Kansas State Board of Nursing and active in several organizations. Jean Rader is a rock. She is the supporter of the Grand Lodge. Her files are amazing. If it has ever been done, Jean has a copy. She has been a god-send to Deborah Kennamore. She is knowledgeable and patient. There aren't enough compliments for a secretary like Jean. She handles all the correspondence, which is no small task. With Special Dispensations, dimits, plural members, letters to secretaries and the brethren, she does it all! Jean's husband, Wayne, retired from the IRS this year. Jean is enjoying Wayne's cooking! Brother Charles Hoffmeister is our "jack of all trades". He mows the yard, vacuums, dusts, cleans, stuffs envelopes, runs errands and does all the general maintenance in the building. Always with a smile and a cheerful attitude. Bud Horton is our part-time printer. Can you imagine all the forms and papers required on a daily basis? Well, Bud can and does. He does a great job! Deborah Kennamore is our Office Manager. Deborah had many changes to absorb in the past six months. She previously worked at our Kansas Masonic Home in Wichita where she was Director of the now-called Masonic Towers. Deborah's family moved to Burlington, Kansas, in June where they bought an old Victorian house they are now restoring. Pete, Deborah's husband, is a member of Albert Pike Lodge No. 303. They have two sons - Matthew age 14 and Daniel age 11. Deborah dove into the work at the Grand Lodge office and is trying her best to give the Masons of Kansas what they should expect from a Grand Lodge this year. Cross-training of the employees in one of Deborah's main objectives this year. Deborah has some working knowledge of Masonry andfindsthe by-laws her best friend. She is determined to do the best she can for Kansas Masons, the Council of Administration and the Grand Lodge staff.

ACCEPTANCE SPEECH M.-. W.-. IMorris L. Fisher
M.-. W.-. Past Grand Masters, other Dignitaries, Brethren, Friends and Ladies: We of this great Masonic Fraternity have a rich and illustrious Heritage. Our past history of many generations has many bright and shining accomplishments of which we can justifiably be proud. Our forefathers have indeed accepted the many challenges presented to them in the decades of our antiquity and established a legacy of philanthropic accomplishment that has the admiration of ages past and present. However, the past is behind us and the accomplishments of generations past may only serve to remind us what we have been, not what we are today or what we might be in the future. Indeed, our focus must now be on the future if we are to survive into the 21st century and in turn leave our children and our children's children the same rich legacy that we have inherited from our forefathers. Your Council of Administration, for the last several years, has labored diligently in what might be called "The Quarries of Masonry." A great deal of thought, study, research and prayer have gone into trying to understand the needs and demands of modem day society as it relates to ourMasonic Fraternity. We have attended and participated in the "North American Renewal Committee" which includes many of the outstanding Masonic leaders from jurisdictions all across the United States. We have likewise attended and participated in the "Mid-West Conference on Masonic Education" as well as pursuing many other avenues of knowledge and experience that were available in order to search out the very best information we could find. We are using this knowledge to help us plan for and meet the challenges of modem American in so far as those needs apply to our Masonic Fratemity. One of the first decisions we made was that the Council of Administration must establish continuity and unanimous direction in setting and pursuing our goals and objectives for the future. With that as our first priority we have established, in the last four years, several new programs, or vehicles which are all geared toward addressing our most pressing need, the decline of membership. Today, 1 can report to you that our advance planning is beginning to bear fmit. The programs we have initiated have generated just over 1600 Master Masons last year as opposed to the 600 we have been averaging the last few years. At the same time, our decline in members last year was just over 600 as opposed to averaging nearly 2600 each year for the last several years. With just a little more support from those who have not availed themselves of the programs available we could have actually shown a gain in m.embership last year. 1 challenge every Lodge in Kansas to join forces with those who are using the new programs and help us build on the momentum we have established. The several programs are now proven vehicles of activity. They work. Lets make the most of the opportunity we have and put Masonry back into a mode of growth. At our recent orientation session with the incoming ADGM/DDGM's, we covered, in detail, every program that Grand Lodge has available. These Brethren will be visiting every Lodge in Kansas over the next few weeks. I encourage every Lodge to solicit their help and expertise in learning about these programs and how to use them. I further challenge every Master Mason in Kansas to actively search your memory for the names of good men of your acquaintance. Men you know to be of good character and worthy of being initiated into Masonry. Ask that individual if he would have any interest in becoming a member of the Greatest Fratemity in the World. If he indicates an interest, the door is open for you to answer his questions and get the petition process started. So long as you allow him to make his own decision you are not violating any Masonic law, as we believed in generations past.

Research surveys have shown us that there are several thousand men interested right here in Kansas. It is up to us to search them out. Remember, in this modem day, they will not ask of their own accord. Our Junior Past Grand Master, M.-. W.-. Dean Osbom, when making his remarks, reviewed some of the important decisions his Council of Administration has made regarding the operation of our Grand Lodge office. These were not easy decisions to make but were ultimately necessary. I can assure you that each decision was made with considerable deliberation and I can now report to you that we have achieved much improved efficiency and economy in our Grand Lodge office operation. I can also report to you that we have achieved a balanced budget and my pledge to you is that we will operate within that budget this year. However, I must alert our gentle Craft to the financial realities of the future. Reduced interest rates have severely curtailed income normally received from our portfolio of investments. This, coupled with reduced income from per-capita tax due to declining membership rolls have taken a deep toll on our financial resources. At the same time many of oiu- expenses arefixedexpenses that cannot be reduced or eliminated. The Council of Administration has, in fact, eliminated many of our expenditures and will eliminate more in the future. Things such as Grand Master and Grand Officer travel expense may have to be eliminated in the fiiture. Grand Master visits may have to be reduced to a minimum or scheduled only at lodge expense. We hope not. With this reality in mind, however, you will note that my recommendations for by-law changes at Grand Lodge next year include a per-capita increase. The increase I am asking for will amount to less than the price of a cup of coffee per month. I ask you my Brothers, is our Masonic Fraternity's future worth the price of a cup of coffee. In closing, my Brethren, I must say to you, our Great Fraternity has done too much good for too many generations, for we of this generation to falter. There is so much more we can accomplish for the good of mankind in the future generations. We have the ability, the experience, the manpower, the motivation and most important of all the character of our Great Masonic Fraternity as the vehicle to carry us forward to greater heights. I ask that you join with me in the pursuance of this illustrious goal. Thank you and the grace of God be with you. The Grand Master again thanked everyone for participating in his installation and coming to honor him. He reminded his brethren of lunch being served, and of the meeting afterward. Grand Master Morris declared the meeting closed and requested the Grand Chaplain to offer a final prayer.

Biographical Sketch of Morris L. Fisher Morris L. Fisher, the 140th M.-.W.-. Grand Master of the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of the Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas was bom October 27, 1932, on a farm near Comstock, Custer County, Neb. His elementary schooling was in local rural grade schools in Custer County, Nebraska. He graduated from Comstock High School in May 1950. His rural upbringing taught him the value of accepting responsibility early in life and that commitment and hard work were the only way to achieve. He first left home, after graduation in 1950, and worked for two years on a wheat farm in western Kansas. He then moved to Wichita, KS, to work for the Boeing Airplane Company. His employment at Boeing was soon interrupted when he was drafted into military service in March of 1953. He took his basic training at Camp Pickett, Virginia, and was then sent to Nuremberg Germany for the balance of his military service. He received an honorable discharge in March of 1955 and returned to Wichita, KS. Where he was again employed by the Boeing Airplane Company. He continued his employment here until 1970. During his years at Boeing, Brother Fisher worked second shift for several years which enabled him to attend Friends University, in Wichita, during the day. He graduated from Friends University with a B.A. degree in Agriculture in 1960. He later attended Wichita State University in Wichita for two years, doing graduate work towards a Masters Degree in Business Administration. After leaving the Boeing Company in 1970, Brother Fisher was employed as a manager for the Lucas Products Company, (who's home office was in Bedford, Iowa). Their business was in the sales and distribution of livestock feed supplements. He worked for their company for two years. Brother Fisher then left Lucas Products Company and began a career in the Insurance Business, affiliated with the Farmers Insurance Group of Company's, and is still involved in managing his agency. He has remained in the Insurance business for some 25 years. Brother Fisher was married to Irene Snyder on May 27, 1952, in Atwood Kansas. Morris and Irene are the proud parents of two sons and one daughter, Michael, Steven and Cynthia. They have seven grandchildren, all boys. Brother Fisher is a member of the United Methodist Church, Derby, KS, where he has served as a Sunday School Teacher. He is an avid sports fan and enjoys the out-of-doors, being as active as time will permit in big game hunting and golf. Brother Fisher is intensely proud of our Great Masonic Fratemity often quoting that it is "the oldest, largest and certainly the most respected fraternal organization the world has ever known." He feels that our Masonic Fratemity, and the great moral and ethical teaching's it brings forth, are in greater need in our modem society than they have ever been. He feels that our great challenge of today is to bring Masonic order to the threshold of the 21st century, with continued respect for it's ability to attract good men and make them better men. Men who will step forward and provide quality leadership for future generations. Professional and Civic Services MASONIC RECORD Raised to a Master Mason in Derby Lodge #365, 1964.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE M.. W.. GRAND LODGE OF AF & AM OF KANSAS ONE HUNDRED FORTIETH ANNUAL COMMUNICATION Salina, Kansas March 15, 1996 The Grand Master introduced Chris Keffer, leader of the Rainbow for Girls. Ms. Keffer thanked Mrs. Barbara Russell, Supreme Deputy, her grandfather, Phillip Keffer, and her uncle, Clark Keffer. She discussed their 75th Anniversary, and thanked the Masonic Fraternity for their help. (Presented a card designating Morris Fisher as a Grand Cross of Color recipient, to be redeemed for the medallion at the next Grand Assembly.) The Grand Master introduced Brother Gaylan Graves, State Master Coimselor, Order of DeMolay. He spoke of their Youth Dance in the ABDALLAH Temple facilities. Mr. Graves also implored the brethren to seek out eligible young men to become affiliated, because they are the lifeblood of this organization. Deputy Grand Master Carveth K. Neer introduced: W.-. Brother Buck Aldrich, President Elect of the National Sojourners Donald Nisbett, Central Area Representative, National Sojourners Inc. The M.-.W.-. Grand Master announced that the introduction of M.-.W.-. Robert Arnold, PGM would be the last part of the public introductions. Brother Eldon Masters presented M.-.W.-. Robert H. Arnold, PGM with a 50 year pin and certificate. He was escorted to the Grand East. The Grand Master excused the Ladies, and Non-Masons and closed the public session. Grand Lodge was opened on the third degree of Masonry for the purpose of conducting business of the One Hundred Fortieth Annual Communication.
ADDRESS OF THE GRAND MASTER Welcome Brethren, to the One Hundred Fonieth Communication of Kansas Grand Lodge. It has been a productive and challenging year and a year that will not soon be forgotten. I began my year as your Grand Master expressing my belief that it would be a year of hope, a year of opportunity and a year of challenge.

By that I meant a year of hope for a better future for our Great Fraternity, an opportunity for all of us to be a positive force for progress, for improvement and for change and of course, our great challenge was for all of us to be a part of making it happen. The first challenge, after last year's change of accounting firms and office managers, which brought about a full understanding of our financial status, was to take our Grand Lodge operation from a posture of deficit spending, to one of getting our financial situation under control and our budget balanced. We were successful in this endeavor, although it took many gut wrenching decisions on the part of the Council of Administration and the Finance Committee to accomplish that goal. I made a personal commitment that my Grand Lodge Budget would remain in black figures for my Grand Lodge year, and I am most pleased to say that it has. The number of new Master Masons being raised is still improving, and we recognize this as positive movement in the right direction. It will be some years yet, however, before we can overcome the large numbers we are losing to the grim reaper, given our average age in this jurisdiction. For example, we have lost nearly 1200 to death in just this last year alone. We will continue to lose large numbers to death for several years to come. To counter this loss, we must continue to seek out the good men, the quality men, of this generation, and invite them to join the Greatest Fraternity the world has ever knovm. Our very survival lies in the recruitment of these good men, and in them recruiting those of their peers, who also are qualified. The general attitude of the Craft across this state has continued to improve, and I see this as another positive indicator that we are on the right track, and on which we must continue to build. With our improved joining process. The One Day Class, the Prospect Night and our updated educational vehicles, the state of Kansas is being looked upon as the leader in progressive change all across the United States. Several other jurisdictions are already duplicating our programs and many others are making plans to follow our lead and join us on the cutting edge of new and positive ways of advancing toward the future. With God willing and the continued support of the Craft, Kansas will continue to be the leader. GRAND LODGE OFFICERS I am extremely proud of my group of appointed Grand Lodge Officers who shared this year with me and Lady Irene. In my personal opinion, they are second to none. I am indeed pleased that I can call each of them Brother and enjoy the friendship and fellowship of both them and their Ladies. Each was chosen because of my personal knowledge of their love for, and commitment to our great Masonic Fraternity. Each has long since demonstrated, through years of sacrifice and dedicated service, that they shared my love and commitment to FreeMasonry. ADGM'S AND DOOM'S To my Area and District Deputy Grand Masters, I extend my heartfelt thanks for your years of service. You have donated many hours of work in the Quarries of Masonry. Yours is not an easy task but is perhaps the most important job in Masonry. I wish I had more time to become more closely acquainted with each and every one of you. You are the eyes and ears of the Grand Master, maintaining contact and communication with the Craft on a weekly basis at the grass roots level. Were it not for your efforts it would not be possible for the Grand Master's message and programs to be communicated to the Craft. COMMITTEE MEN To the many good Brethren filling the many and necessary committee positions, and serving our gentle Craft without recognition and compensation, I extend my sincere appreciation. Again, I wish I had time to meet and know each of your personally. Your service is necessary, invaluable, and demonstrated your dedication to Masonry. RULINGS On two occasions this year 1 found it necessary to declare vacancies among the principle officers for two of our Symbolic Lodges. New elections were held and officers installed by myself as Grand Master, or by Special Dispensation. I am pleased to report that in both cases, Masonic unity and the principles of Masonry have been restored and the future for these two Lodges now looks good. SPECIAL DISPENSATIONS As is normal each year, it was necessary to use the Grand Master's powers and permit, by "Special Dispensation", a number of deviations from our By-Laws. In each case, the determining factor was, it must be for the good of, and for the advancement of FreeMasonry.

COUNCIL OF ADMINISTRATION The Council of Administration faced a number of very difficult decisions this year. I am most pleased with the support of R.'. W.-. Carveth Neer, R.-.W.-. T. Michael Fegan and R.-.W.. Jeff Sowder in the making of each of these several decisions. Each decision was made with the good of Masonry and, more especially, the Kansas Jurisdiction in mind. LECTURES ON TAPE One of these decisions is one that has been considered for several years and one which will be accepted wholeheartedly by many, yet resisted strenuously by others. As Grand Master I have authorized (again by Special Dispensation) the video taping of our four lectures in the Entered Apprentice and Master Mason Degrees. There has been an ever-increasing need for these in many of our Lodges, and in some cases even in entire Districts, across this State, who no longer have the capability of giving these several lectures. Many of our new Master Masons in these areas, in violation of our Kansas By-Laws, have never received these lectures at all, or at best, have received them in such poor fashion as to leave the new Brother with an unfavorable impression of our dedication to and belief in the teachings and knowledge they impart. Again, this is not an edict and is not mandatory. Those Lodges who have the ability to do the lectures well, are encouraged to do so. On the other hand, those who have the need may purchase the tapes and/or cassettes through our Grand Lodge office. Their use will be authorized by "Special Dispensation" where the need exists. 1 wish to note the cassettes should be an excellent tool to assist interested Brethren in studying and learning these Lectures. DERBY LODGE #365 To all of my Brethren of Derby Lodge #365, I wish to express a very special and heartfelt thanks. The initial impressions of my initiation, the early imprints on my character, and finally the bonding with the Fraternity, all went into the development of my great Love for Masonry. Whatever I may have become is a direct result of my experience in Derby Lodge, and I thank you for your love and support. My greatest hope is that I have represented you well in my years of service. PAST GRAND MASTERS After serving the last five years with the Council of Administration and finally as Grand Master, I have an even greater appreciation for your leadership and dedication to our Fraternity. Those who have not walked in a Grand Master's shoes can never truly imderstand the many pressures and obligations of this office. I appreciate your advice and your support this past year. Speaking of Past Grand Masters, I had the considerable honor this year of making a special presentation to two of our most distinguished Past Grand Masters. M.-.W.-. Arthur Hodgson received his 65 year certificate honoring his many years of dedication to Masonry as did M.-.W.-. Richard Becker. What great milestones these Illustrious Brothers have reached in their Masonic Careers. M.-.W.-. Becker also celebrated his 90th birthday and I can tell you he is still going strong and sharp as a tack. What a privilege it was to have a part in honoring these distinguished Brethren. GRAND LODGE OFFICE STAFF The Staff at our Grand Lodge office continues to make improvements in the efficiency of our operation and I owe them a debt of gratitude. They have worked diligently to fulfill my every request as well as all other requests from the Craft. It is not an easy task, and they do not receive the credit they deserve. Thanks for a job well done. GRAND REPRESENTATIVES Each year, the Grand Master has the honor of appointing select Brethren to serve as Grand Lodge Representatives to other Jurisdictions. This year I was privileged to appoint the following Brethren; 1. 2. 3. 4.
W.-. Harold O. Drennen-Sao Paulo W.-. Michael Gable-Romania W.-. Paul A. Lockwood-Czechoslovakia W.-. John A. Golden-Yugoslavia

DISTTNGIJISHED SFRVICK AWARD My selection for the "Distinguished Service Award" this year was W.-. Brother James DeBerry from Sunflower Lodge #86. Space does not pennit my listing all of his qualifications as it would take several pages to summarize the many, many acts of kindness and charity he has performed for his feilowman over many years. As I have said several times this year when introducing him, he wakes up each morning, wondering what he can do for the good of Masonry this day. Before the day is finished, he will find a way to help someone who is in need of assistance. I am indeed proud to call him my friend and my Brother. TWO OF A KIND A special thanks to R.-.W.-. Brother Paul Lockwood and W.-. Brother Harold Drennen. Of the 40,000 plus miles I have traveled and 250 meetings 1 have attended in serving Grand Lodge this year, there have been only four occasions when I have traveled away from the Derby area by myself One of these two Brothers has made that extra effort to keep me company and do most of the driving, and believe me, I could not have stayed awake for all of that driving by myself Their support and dedication to Masonry is greatly appreciated. Without their able assistance, I simply could not have kept pace with my duties. RECOMMENDATION I have recommended to the Council of Administration that our ftiture Per Capita tax problems, after this year, can best be addressed by having them tied to the "consumer price index" so that increases would be minimal in any given year and would keep pace with inflation. Hopefully it would keep us from again falling into a crisis situation like the one we are facing currently. That in ftiture years, more thought be given to reducing the number of Grand Master visits, perhaps to no more than one per District. Any more would have to be paid by the Lodge requesting the visit. Another possibility is that more of the official visits be made by the Deputy Grand Master, Grand Sr. Warden and Grand Jr. Warden. By assigning these visits to different sections of the State each year, over the four year period of serving on the Council of Administration, each Grand Master could have visited nearly every Lodge in Kansas. HIGHLIGHTS This years annual outdoor Moonlight Lodge event, of which I have been an integral part for more than 25 years, was perhaps the greatest one we have ever had. We again were honored to have "The Royal Canadian Mounted Police Team" comprised of officers from the several Provinces of Canada as our visiting team. The final count revealed that we had just over 1,000 Master Masons in attendance and all enjoyed perhaps the most outstanding dramatization of the Master Mason Degree ever witnessed in Kansas. It will be remembered for a lifetime by all in attendance. We had the privilege of opening Grand Lodge on several different occasions this year for dedication or rededication requests. The most recent was the dedication of the U.S.D.A. Building in Atwood, Kansas, and the largest being the new Veterans Administration Hospital at Leavenworth, Kansas. In each case, our Grand Lodge Officers performed well with impressive dedication ceremonies. These were opportunities to put one of our fraternity's more ancient activities on display for public viewing. In all cases, the feedback we received was most positive. Our "Kansas Masonic Home" and "Kansas Masonic Foundation" have continued to improve their operation and accomplishments this year. We can all be extremely proud of Brother Ken Caldwell (President of the Masonic Home Board) and Brother Jerry Cole (President of the Masonic Foundation Board) and the outstanding people who sit on the board of these shining stars of Kansas Masonry. It has been my great pleasure to serve on these boards as well and be involved with some of the finest individuals in Kansas. These are two places where you truly see Masonry at its' best, serving mankind. The "Grand Master's Charily Fund" is growing and will soon be established as the third shining star of Kansas Masonry's Philanthropic accomplishments. In conclusion, I will simply say it has been my greatest honor to serve our Fraternity, and more especially the Brethren of our Kansas Jurisdiction as Grand Master. My initial goal was to leave Kansas Masonry in a more improved position than it was when my year began. It is my hope and my belief that we have accomplished that goal.

Thanks to you. my Brethren, each and every one, for allowing me the opportunity to serve. May the Grand Architect of the Universe continue to be the guiding light for us all.
VISION ( W h a t we want to become by the year 2000) FreeMasonry is universally recognized as the preeminent organization that exemplifies leadership, charity, fellowship, and positive family values within the community, the state, the country, and the world at large.
MISSION (The reason we exist) The mission of Kansas Masonry is to provide for its members opportunities for personal growth through fellowship, education, service, and leadership experience, and increased self-esteem through recognition and the opportunity to give something back to their community. The mission outside of the Fraternity is to fulfill charitable needs, display positive family values and offer leadership to the community. By fulfilling this mission, the fraternity will grow and prosper as good men seek to join and remain associated with men of high principle and character, as taught by FreeMasonry.

The Grand Lodge was put to ease and the public was invited into the Lodge to observe the Installation of the GfTicers of Community Daylight Lodge. The following Officers were installed with M.-.W.-. Morris L. Fisher as Installing Master, M.-.W.-. William J. Brown, PGM as Installing Marshall and W.-. Orville Wessler as Installing Chaplain. W.-. James DeBerry W.-. Norman Slubbs W.-.

W.-. John M. Meyers, Grand Orator, gave a short talk on the meaning of Masonry and the benefit it would give to all men who would seek it out. W.-. James DeBerry gave some remarks as to the reason for the establishment of this new Lodge. The Grand Master then introduced his Grand Lodge officers and their ladies after which he closed Grand Lodge in ample form and all retired to the dining room for refreshments. REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: The members of the Finance Committee are glad to report that 1996 was a very good year for the Grand Lodge. We had budgeted $524,581.00 for fiscal year 1995. (January 1 to December 31) At the end of December with final expenses figured in, we had a Budget Surplus of $26,669.00 after total expenditures of $488,652.00. Credit for the surplus of funds should go to the Grand Master, the Council of Administration and the members of the Finance Committee. Our Grand Master made a very dedicated effort to control all expenditures and to keep them within budget limits. As a result of his efforts we were able to roll over the surplus of funds into this years budget and hopefully will see this as a trend for future years. During the year of 1995, the Finance Committee met quarterly with the Grand Master and the members of the Council of Administration to review the expenses to date and to see how they compared with the projected budget figures to that point in the fiscal year. If during the year budgeted amounts were spent, the Grand Master stopped any further expenditure to that budget item where practical. Once again, we would request that on a voluntary basis, any brother who would care to return his mileage/per diem check to the Grand Lodge as a contribution to help control budget expenses for 1996 will be greatly appreciated. The cost of issuing those checks amount to approximately $35,000.00. Over half that amount was donated back to the Grand Lodge last year and those donations were nearly half of the reported budget surplus for the year. Early in January this year, we received a letter from the Real Estate Firm of Cohen & Esrey of Topeka. They informed us that they had a firm offer for the existing Grand Lodge building in the amount of $500,000.00 (first offer) Copies of that letter were sent to the Grand Master, Grand Secretary and Chairman of the Finance Committee. To my knowledge, no action has been taken to respond to that offer. The sale of the existing building is something that should be considered as a way to help cut our expenses in the fiiture. That discussion should include the Grand Master, the Council of Administration, the Finance Committee and also any input we might receive from the Craft at large. The members of the Grand Lodge Committee would like to thank M.-.W.-. Morris Fisher for his assistance and cooperation and for the opportunity to serve the Grand Lodge of Kansas for 1995. Respectfully submitted, Jim E. Ross, Chairman Ray Hopson Walter F. Jack Don E. Robinett, PGM
REPORT OF THE GRAND TREASURER To: The M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas 1 am very happy to report that our Grand Lodge revenues exceeded our expenses this year by $24,367.00. This was not accomplished without sacrifice and good decision making. The Grand Lodge investments are again a little over $200,000.00 and the net worth of the Grand Lodge is up a little and now totals $616,312.00. Beginning this year the Grand Lodge will be receiving a quarterly review from our auditor. This will greatly assist anyone who makes decisions pertaining to Grand Lodge finances.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT Most Worshipful, Morris L. Fisher, Grand Master, Jim E. Ross, Chairman of the Grand Lodge Finance Committee and The Council of Administration for the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas Topeka, Kansas 66601 I have audited the statement of assets, liabilities and fund balances of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas as of December 31, 1995, and the related statements of revenues and expenses and changes in fund balances, and cash flow for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Grand Lodge Finance Committee and Council of Administration. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit. I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. .An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion. My audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying schedules are presented supplementary information and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures appplied to the basic financial statements and, in my opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas at December 31, 1995, and the results of its operations and its cash flow for the year ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

REPORT OF THE GRAND SECRETARY To the M.-.W.'. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: This year has passed very quickly as we have been busy all year. We have produced a new Law Book that is in a new loose leaf format and we have had many good comments on it. This was a lot of work for the staff and myself as it was input into the computer and 1 proof-read it four times, but we believe the end result was worth the effort. Something to note on our membership loss is the fact that fifty years ago we raised 5.866 new master masons, the most in our history. For the next eight years after that we raised well over 4,000 new master masons per year to reach our peak membership on December 31, 1957 of 101,277 members. As you can see we have lost sixty percent of that membership and we will lose more as the grim reaper takes his toll. On a more pleasant note our office staff has changes some this year but remain the best people there is anywhere to work with. Becky Wasson retired in the spring and Jermifer Bolze was hired to take her place. She has taken over all of Becky's duties and was the one that worked on the new law book and did an excellent job. Deborah Kennamore, our office manager, left our employment on January 19 and Jean Rader has agreed to take over management of the office until other arrangements can be made. Not enough can be said for Jean's abilities as she is the rock that we all go to for advice or information on what has happened or needs to happen. Tanya Artzer still handles supplies, payroll, bulk mailings and supervises the part-time workers and still has energy to help out wherever needed. Brother Charles Hoffmeister is the one that makes order out of all of our mess by keeping the whole building clean and helping out in more ways that we can mention. Bud Horton is our part-time printer that works most of the time saving us dollars by doing most printing in house. As of the printing of this report we have 1,726 new members and a loss of 2,212 members. Our total membership is 43,408. Fraternally submitted, Don E.

M.-.W.-. Don E. Robinett, PGM then moved to accept all the reports as printed in the Advanced Proceedings, on the condition that any questions be put in writing on his desk by 7:30 am the next morning to be discussed. Motion Carried. The Grand Master introduced Brother Dwight Applegate, for the Kansas Lodge of Research. Brother Applegate then introduced M..W.-. Dr. Forrest Haggard, PGM. M.-.W.-. Forrest D. Haggard PGM, President Scottish Rite Research Society and Past President of The Philalethes Society. A Presentation before the Annual Communication of the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas Friday, March 15, 1996. To the M.-.W.-. Giand Master, members of this Grand Lodge, the Kansas Lodge of Research and its President Brother Dwight Applegate: Greetings and thank you for the privilege to represent the Kansas Lodge of Research and address you this morning. Masons engaged in research have a different way of looking at the world. For example: If they stopped at a Quik Trip store that has a sign saying "We are open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year" The researcher would ask "Why do you have locks on your doors?". 1 had a hard time with memory work because I continually interrupted to ask " What does that mean?". Masonic Education is the heart and center of our Fraternity. We have a real problem called lack of understanding as concerns the purpose and intent of FreeMasonry. Our Gentle Craft suffers from may well be a fatal injury at the hands of our leadership. We are ego driven locally or Grand Lodge. We suffer financially at the hands of Grand Lodge officers who have unlimited access to funds. Large egos combined with non-restrictive spending can lead
1995-19%

to disaster. Many local leaders are elderly, overworiced, under compensated, and unwilling to learn new technology. Many of our Craft Lodges as well as local appendant and concordant bodies are nearly non-fimctional being unable to fulfill their officer quotas. All this is happening at a time when we are still under harsh and dishonest criticism at the hands of the religious fundamentalists. But also at a time when many yoimg American males search for a center point in their life that is firm and teaches morality. There are three elements in Masonic Education. They form the basis or foimdation of an educated articulate Freemason. They are: Knowledge of Rules and Regulations; How you Play the Game; and lasdy Knowledge of the Why and What-that is THE UNDERSTANDING of FreeMasonry. Every Mason needs to know that the rules, law, constitutions, by-laws and general regulations of FreeMasonry in his jurisdiction. At the same time it is necessary that we understand that these rules and regulations are absolute and still understand that all rules and regulations are subject to change and interpretation. Not knowing the rules and regulations will cause you to make a mistake. You can be a GREAT basketball player and head for the final four but a lack of knowledge of the rules and regulations will cause you to make an error that could cost your team the championship. It is difiicuh to comprehend but our rules and regulations are 'cut in stone' but the stone can be changed. Secondly you need to know how to 'play the game'-to perform. Playing the game means you can run the lodge with good leadership and business skills. Ritual is a part of knowing how to play the game. It is important as a vehicle to transport the ideals of our Craft. It is the container of the constants of our Fraternity. In our Western Masonic World we have moved form seeing the ritual as the container to seeing it as the whole event. We go around polishing' and inscribing the containers but never seeing the contents as important. Ritual, public relations, leadership and business skills, up to date technology are all important to membership. We will not survive without knowing how to play the game and play it well. There is a third ingredient without which we are subject to failure. We must know who and why and what we are all about. We learned this in recent times when the Southern Baptist Convention raised the issue of FreeMasonry and Organized Religion. We learned, to our sorrow, that even the best run lodge could not provide factual answers to the serious questions being raised about our Fraternity. The Research Groups in masonry understand the importance of our knowing who and why we are. Thanks to the Scottish Rite, S.J. and the Masonic Service Association who stepped forward with money, energy and leadership to answer the charges against us. Thanks to the Philalethes Society for spearheading the return to reality about the regularity of Prince Hall Masonry and to Grand Lodge of Kansas who led the way in experimentation of the ways in which we convey the message of Masonry to the young men of today. Growth and expansion of our membership is essential for our existence but the understanding of who we are and what we are about is critical for our life and well being. Thank you. Your standing ovation is a great compliment. Again I want to thank the Kansas Lodge of Research for this opportunity to share with you. I am proud to be a member of this Grand Lodge. Kansas Masonry is a leader of our Craft. M..W.-, Forrest Haggard then challenged the Kansas Lodge of Research to fund the second volume of Kansas history. Brother Ken Caldwell then gave the report of the Kansas Masonic Home.
140th Annual Communications Most Worshipful Grand Lodge Ancient Free & Accepted Masons of Kansas M o s t Worshipful Sir, Officers and Members of the Craft: The residents, staff and Board of Trustees of your oldest "living charity," the Kansas Masonic Home, send their warmest greetings! As Administrator of Kansas Masonic Home, this year's Annual Communications holds special significance for me, because it takes place during our Centennial year. It will be a time for celebration, reflection and rededication. It will be a time to honor those who took the first steps on our elder-care journey, as well as those who will carry our Mission into the next century. To you, my Brothers, I send only my best regards for your never-ending contributions of time, talent and resources to Kansas Masonic Home. As stated by our Board of Trustees President, Ken Caldwell, "You extend new 'light' and dignity to people whose past charitable efforts ended with the close of another day." We all thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Proceedings of the

Our Annual Communications would not be complete without an expression of my deepest appreciation to Board of Trustee members, staff, volunteers and residents of Kansas Masonic Home. They provided me with great support over the past year. The accomplishments of the Home really reflect a collaborative effort by all of these fine people. Through discussion, planning and concrete action, we are definitely taking the Masonic Home into the next century of modem elder care. We pray that all of our Kansas Masonic Brothers will not only read our Annual Communications, but they will continue their firm personal commitment toward our time-honored, 100-year-old Mission. The remainder of our communications will be a paragraphed-styled overview of our accomplishments. As you know, our activities here never cease. Your health-care mission employs three service-lines to care for the people of Kansas: Thomas C. Raum, Jr., PGM, Masonic Towers ' (independent-living retirement center); Maplewood Home Care, your home health agency; and our time-honored S. Allan Daugherty Medical Pavilion for people who need nursing home services.
Centennial Committee: The Board of Trustees formed a Centennial Committee in January 1995 to set the goals and plans for the 1996 celebration. Committee members included: Brother Ken Caldwell, Board President & Committee Chair, Chanute; Brother John T. Arnold, Wichita; Sister Virginia Danielson, Manhattan; Sister Margree "Brownie" Glenn, Wichita; Brother Carveth Neer, Pittsburg; Brother Jon J. Robison, Wichita; Brother Dean Osbom, PGM, Wichita; Brother Michael T. States, Wichita. The late Sister Louetta Secrest, PGM, of Pleasanton was also a committee member. The following centennial goals were set last year: l)Celebrate the past work of Kansas Masonic Home. 2)Generate support for the second century of work. 3)Create an awareness of the Kansas Masonic Home programs and services. • Maplewood Home Care; • Masonic Towers Independent Living (retirement) Facility; • S. Allan Daugherty Medical (nursing) Pavilion. l)Strengthen rapport between Home and its major publics. Calendar: Centennial Committee members worked throughout the spring and early summer to produce a calendar of events to present to the Most Worshipful Grand Master and Deputy Grand Master of Kansas Ancient Free & Accepted Masons. The 100-year celebration will revolve around the theme "Celebrating our Living Mission." It will encompass 20 events for Kansas organizations, as well as a special "Banana Split Sunday and Open House" for the general public. The celebration will involve Home residents, staff members, current and past Board members, the Kansas Masonic Family, the Masonic Home Executives Association of North America, and health-care professionals and business people. In addition to these events, staff members with the Activities Department are planning monthly events for retirement and medical residents throughout the calendar year.

Early in 1996, personnel approached dignitaries with the State of Kansas, Sedgewick County and City of Wichita for documents proclaiming 1996 as "Kansas Masonic Home Centennial Year." In January and February 1996, special delegations accepted proclamations from each of these governmental agencies. Call for Support: The Board President hopes everyone will join in Centennial festivities. "Our facility not only exemplifies the Masonic vision of charity and positive family values promulgated by our founders," Caldwell notes, "but it reflects the charitable goodwill historically represented by all prairie-land pioneers. We first opened in 1896 to provide basic clothing, food, shelter and health care for those people who are less fortunate. Although our range of services have changed over the years, we still strive to maintain our charitable heritage of past years." The Board President urges "Masonic Home friends throughout Kansas, to support the residents, volunteers and staff members of Kansas Masonic Home who are dedicated to strengthen and enrich the lives of our elderly citizens," Sculpture: In August, the Board of Trustees commissioned a Centennial sculpture entitled "The First 100 Years" through a Kansas Mason, Brother Forrest Tuttle of Scottsdale, Arizona. In addition to his artistic talents, Mr. Tuttle also helped the Home gain design and foundry work at cost. National Convention: Jon Robison, Administrator, hosted 18 Masonic Home executives and their spouses for an October 20 meeting to plan the 1996 armual convention of the Masonic Home Executives Association of North America. The national Centennial event will take place in June 1996'at Wichita Airport Hilton Inn. Souvenirs: Administration and support personnel planned the design and distribution of Centennial souvenirs in late 1995. Souvenir items include: Solid brass and numbered belt buckles; and pen & ink sketches of Masonic Towers, Eastern Star Chapel and Maplewood Estates; coffee mugs; ball caps; and writing pens. Centennial: The Centennial logo was recently approved by Board President Ken Caldwell and Administrator Jon Robison. Featuring the tower and centennial slogan, the art will be used on Centennial souvenir items, Masonic Home business stationery, birthday cards and thank you notes. Centennial Plea: Ken Caldwell issued a plea to Brothers and Sisters across the State of Kansas to join the Masonic Home in a quiet Centennial observance during the 1995 holiday seasons. "When you worship during this blessed Yuletide month, please say a quiet prayer of thanksgiving for those Masonic Family Members who supported our 'Living Mission' over the past 100 years."
A dministration/Operations Fraternal Outreach: Administration and service line managers initiated a series of dinner meetings between February and October 1995. Entitled "An Evening of Shared Vision" and "A Time for Shared Vision," the programs were sanctioned by the Kansas Grand Master, Ancient Free & Accepted Masons, and the Worthy Grand Matron, Kansas Grand Chapter of the Order of the Eastern Star. Fraternal members enjoyed dinners, presentations by department directors and tours of Masonic Towers. The programs gave them a chance to familiarize themselves with the work of each department and encouraged them to consider Masonic Towers as a place to retire. The following south-central Kansas groups have attended to date: Allied Organizations: Keystone High 12, Midian Shrine Divan, Trustees/Chaplain, Past Potentates, and Past Potentate Widows. Masonic Lodges: Albert Pike Lodge No. 303, Community Lodge No. 453, Derby Lodge No. 365, Masonic Home Lodge No. 450, Mount Hope Lodge No. 238, Sunflower Lodge No. 86, York Lodge No. 57 Eastern Star Chapters: Haysville Chapter No. 494, Ilus Chapter No. 433, Ivy Leaf Chapter No. 75, North Star Chapter No. 483, Phoenix Chapter No. 159 of Wellington, and Valley Center Chapter No. 237. The name of the Independent Living (retirement) Facility at Kansas Masonic Home officially changed in January 1995 to "Masonic Towers Independent Living Facility." The move gave Masonic Towers a distinct image and eliminated confusion with the Maplewood Home Care and the nursing home services. (In January 1996, Board members changed the name again to the Thomas C. Raum, Jr., PGM, Masonic Towers. The name change honored a man who has given more than 30 years to the Board of Trustees and nearly 30 years as Secretary to the Board.) Award: Genera! contractor Hahner, Foreman & Harness, Inc. received state-wide recognition in January for their work on the Masonic Towers addition. The group received a "Build with the Best State Building Award" in January 1995 during the annual meeting of the Associated General Contractors of Kansas, Inc.

Maplewood: The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) "surveyors" gave Maplewood Home Care an excellent service rating and no deficiencies following a review of operations in March 1995. Facilities: Last spring Board members authorized the demolition and removal of the foimer (southeast wing) Infirmary building through Bradbum Wrecking Company at a cost of $240,000. The factors which led toward the decision included fire code infractions, unusable space, the presence of asbestos, cost-prohibitive renovation costs and the value of the ground. Facilities: Remodeling and renovation work also involved a variety of departments.

Grand Lodge of AF&AM of Kansas: This year has been a wonderful success for your Kansas Masonic Foundation. We have continued to promote several educational, charitable and scientific programs through your generous contributions. The Educational Department was established this past year in order to help more and more Kansas students obtain a higher education. This year's specific achievements are described in more detail throughout this report. Kansas Masonic Oncoloyv Research Center: Through generous contributions from the Masons of Kansas, your grant to the Kansas Masonic Oncology Research Center at KU Medical Center for the 1995-96 fiscal year is $213,654.00. Of that, $93,654.00 will be used to help establish the Kansas Masonic Oncology Research Chair. For each of the next four years, $80,000.00 will be reserved from "C-Club" gifts Masons regularly make to the Kansas Masonic Oncology Research Center for the purpose of supporting the Chair. This figure, along with the KU Endowment Association's $100,000.00 grant, will total $500,000.00. Since $1 million is required to endow a distinguished professorship in perpetuity, another $500,000.00 must be raised over the next four years. Since 1974, contributions from the Masons of Kansas have totaled over $2 million. C-Club: This exclusive group of Masonic philanthropists was started in 1981 to provide support for the Kansas Masonic Oncology Research Center At the end of the 1995 calendar year, we had received $48,525.32 from 2,404 charitable Masons who responded to our recent appeal for assistance. Currently of the 16,081 "C-Club" members, there are 2,254 Gold pin recipients who have donated $IOO.OO-$499.99; 151 Ruby pin recipients who have donated $500.00-$999.99; and 107 Diamond pin recipients who have donated $ 1,000.00 or more. The Diamond donors have also received a specially engraved Diamond Plaque to show our appreciation of their generosity. An updated "C-Club" plaque listing through Dec. 31,1995, was sent to the lodges in February, 1996.

In 1995, five Kansas students received a total of $11,750.00 from this nonsolicitable scholarship program.

REPORT OF THE PERPETUAL LIFE MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE 1 think it would be fair to say that the Perpetual Life Membership Program is off and running. In the last year we have gone from 58 Life Memberships to 103 plus 5 Memorial Life Memberships. A total of $62,928.00 has been contributed to the Fimd along with $780.00 to the Memorial Fund making a total contribution of $63,708.00. All lodges that had Life Membership Funds deposited for a full year received a little more than the regular dues which would have been received from the non-life members. As an example, a lodge whose dues were $50.00 per year, the credit to the lodge was $52.50. This was after retaining a growth factor of 25%. All Life Memberships received and deposited by 10-31-95 had some credit given to their lodge. A total of $2,693.93 credit was given to the 55 lodges who have members that have chosen to participate in the Perpetual Life Membership Plan. The Committee wish to thank the members of this Grand Lodge and the Grand Master for allowing us to serve on this Committee this past year. Two of us will serve next year along with a third which you will elect at this Annual communication. Fraternally submitted, Melbum C. Bames, Chairman (1997) William G.

Grand Lodge from refreshment to labor. The Grand Master announced that the brethren need to vote on the Grand Lodge Officers. The Area Deputy Grand Masters picked up the ballots. The Grand Master then explained his Alaskan cruise. He encouraged everyone interested to contact him for a brochure. M.-. W.-. Morris Fisher called R.-. W.-. Jeff Sowder to give a full budget report. Good Afternoon Brethren, it was a wonderful lunchâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;I'm always thrilled when they serve beef. With five dollar com, and sixty dollar fat cattle, we need all the help we can get. My brethren as you came back into the Lodge room today, you should have entered through the Tyler's doors and received from them a four page docimient telling about our Grand Lodge Per Capita Tax proposal. I hope that all have those in your hand. During the next 10-15 minutes I'm going to try and walk you through this, and tell you exactly what's going on with your Grand Lodge finances, and why we're asking for a five dollar Per Capita Tax increase. 1 think it's important that you fully imderstand where we get our money, and wherÂŤ that money goes, so you can make yoiir decision and make it with the good of Fratemal Masonry in your hearts.

We're totally funded by per capita, which is now ten dollars. One dollar of this is designated for the Kansas Mason, a minimum of another one dollar fifty cents up to three dollars is designated for our Kansas Masonic Home. During the past couple of years we have had to give the Masonic Home only the minimum, so that we can use the rest of it to balance the budget. So actually we have seven and a half dollars to run your Grand Lodge per member. If the Masonic Home was getting all that it is entitled to get, we would only be have six dollars per member to run Grand Lodge. Our last per capita tax increase was in 1982, and at that lime our membership was over 68,000. Today our membership is under 44,000. I was hoping I would be optimistic when I put it in there and say 45,000 but it doesn't look like that is what is going to happen, it's under 44,000. During this past year under the direction of our M.-.W.-. Grand Master Morris Fisher, the Council of Administration, the Grand Treasurer, the Grand Secretary, and the Finance Committee have taken a great deal of steps to try to eliminate or reduce a lot of the expenses your Grand Lodge has incurred. Among those items thai have been eliminated have the spring and fall area meetings, warden's schools, the appointed Grand Lodge Officers travel expense, our Masonic Trailer, the Grand Lodge Awards program, expenses for our visiting dignitaries, motel rooms for all Past Grand Masters at Grand Lodge, our George Washington Masonic memorial donation, our drug abuse program, and now our district and area lecture programs. These programs have all been eliminated because there is not enough money to fund them. Those items that have been reduced have been the Grand Master's Auto expense, elected Grand Lodge Officers travel expenses, our Masonic Education committee, our Membership committee, our Annual Commimication costs, salaries and expenses of the Grand Lodge Office, our Grand Lodge office building maintenance wherever possible, our perpetual life membership promotion, and many others. As was noted to you this morning, through diligent hard work and many "gut-wrenching" decisions as it was called, and that's absolutely true, we're proud to say this year for the first time in several years, your Grand Lodge budget was in the black. That was no small accomplishment. The money that was left over has not been rolled over into the 1996 budget. It has been currently just set aside for use somewhere down the road. We didn't know we had a surplus when we made the 1996 budget. A lot of that comesfi^omwhat the return on investments are that we have invested and we never know that actual amount until Mike Porter finishes his audit sometime in January, first part of February. So that money has not been rolled into the 1996 budget, it has simply been set aside at this time. Your revenues for Kansas Grand Lodge first off comes, as I said, from our per capita tax. We also get rent income from our Kansas Masonic Foundation and York Rite Bodies upstairs in our Grand Lodge office. We're very proud to have these two as renters and we are most remiss in saying that the York Rite is looking for an alternate place to rent because as their membership dwindles, they are forced to look for smaller office space to reduce cost. Special Dispensationsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; from time to time that lodges ask for are granted by the Grand Master and $5 is received each time fi-om these. We received approximately two hundred dollars during the year from those. Initiatory feesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; each lodge pays an initiatory fee for every man that is raised in your lodge. This money is then directly forwarded to the Kansas Masonic Home each year. It's part of our By-Laws. Investment income-Through the hard work of the Finance committee and the direction of our Grand Treasurer, this year, the funds for our long term investments have worked for us very well achieving a good rate of return on some very safe investments. We project our income next year to be around twenty thousand dollars. Merchandise sales-Our Grand Lodge office has a wide array of supplies, pins, and books, many of those are on display for you downstairs. Those are all marked up a minimal amount so that it doesn't put a hardship on anyone to buy one, but yet we cover our costs and then just a little bit. Last year, basically through pin sales, we made $13,200 on merchandise sales. That's a credit to you my brothers from the supplies you buy from our Grand Lodge office. If we add all this projected income together, it comes to $477,000 in the 1996 budget. We went on and looked at what expenses that we knew we had to incur, and we come up short $25,000 - so we asked for voluntary donations through the Kansas Mason. We're proud to say that the Kansas Masons have stepped forward and done what was right and today we have received over $30,000 in to meet that $25,000 expense that we asked for. The extra money will be rolled into a fiilure budget or another project that I will talk to you about just a little bit later. TTiat is all the revenues that we have in the $502,600. For disbursements we have our basic Grand lodge operations. Our Grand Lodge staff works extremely hard to service it's customers. That being you the Craft, and affiliate Lodges throughout our Grand Jurisdiction. These ladies in that Grand Lodge Office are overworked and under-paid by anybody's standards. We aren't as fortunate as we used to have, when we had

Brother Arnold to run our office for many years, and the last few years haven't been very kind to us in our Grand Lodge office in any way, shape or form in what's happened. But we feel like we've righted that ship now, and the fact that we've turned in the black this year, I think is certainly indicative of what we see is going to come down the road. I've listed what goes in our basic Grand Lodge operations- salaries and wages, payroll and unemployment taxes, health insurance, retirement benefits, postage, office supplies, computer expense, accounting, auditing, legal fees, building maintenance, parking spaces, utilities, real estate and personal property taxes, insurance and depreciation, they make up the total amount of these Grand Lodge expenses. All of these items have been severely scrutinized over the past few years, and have cut or eliminated anywhere possible. But those total expenses are $2 81,900 for the 1996 budget. Our per capita tax also provides we pay for a minimum of 1.50 to the Kansas Masonic Home and this we have done. It is the hope and wishes of the Council of Administration that we could give more. But we must save ourselves before we worry about saving everybody else. Our total expenditures on our membership would be $67,600 with $1.50 per member going to the Home. Our Grand Master's contingency fund, auto fund and apron and jewel fund, has been cut and reduced in the couple years, and right now the total on those is around $26,500 for all of those combined. It's important that our Grand Master be able to work with the Craft. You heard our M.-.W.-. Grand Master talk this morning about maybe in the fiature, if things don't turn around, we may have to charge lodges to have the Grand Master come. I would hate to think that would ever happen. Because there would be lodges throughout our Grand Jurisdiction that would never see the Grand Master. At our cornerstone layings and rededications, it is a time of great highlight for those local lodges. But yet many of them would not be able to afford to do it if they had to pay. Let's help them celebrate their great times. This kind of reduction continues also under Grand Lodge travel: all the appointed Grand Lodge officers no longer receive any compensation. These gentlemen have traveled on their own throughout this year and incurred all their expenses on their own. The fund for Grand Lodge elected officers has also been greatly reduced. We also attend the Grand Master's conference each year, and Grand Master, Deputy Grand Master, Senior and Junior Warden went this year for less money than what we allotted for only two of them to go. Kansas is in high demand at the Grand Master's Conference and elsewhere about these meetings throughout the United States, because we are on the leading edge of Masonry in the things that we're doing. People want to visit with us and see what's going on. And 1 hope that you're all proud of that fact. The Grand Lodge Lecturers and Assistantsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;District meetings are held throughout our Grand Jurisdiction in January and February of each year and are conducted by the Ritualistic committee. We have set their total expenditures at $5,000. These gentlemen ran short this year and ended up pulling some of that out of their own pockets. We have looked at combining schools next year, so that we can cut this expense. 1 feel confident we'll get that done. That is one of the high priorities of R.-. W.-. Carveth K. Neer as he comes in as Grand Master. Committee expensesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Public schools where we give away our scholarship money in the amount of $8,000 dollars per year. In some years that can carry over, we don't give out $8,000 some years, but other years we may give out $10,000 or $12,000 because somebody that wins our scholarship contest may only be a junior in high school. They won't get that money until they're out of high school. But we still have to allot $8,000 each year for that. Our Masonic education budget of $500 has been greatly reduced and I think it ought to be greater. One thing we definitely need is Masonic Education. This helps not only our older brother Masons that have been Masons for many years, but also our new brother Masons. Our trials and pimishments committee, membership, and Deputy Grand Master contingency fund have all either been reduced or not used totally in the last few years. Our annual Grand Lodge Communication and the printing of the annual proceedings is listed there. Our Grand Lodge Communication is a fairly expensive process to put on, but it's greatly worth it when you stand up here and see all you brethren here. Your help in returning per diem checks last year helped greatly reduce the cost of our Annual Communication. We are asking you to do the same again this year to help reduce this cost. If you need it, take it because we want you here. If you don't need it, we ask that you turn it back so that Grand Lodge can use it in some other endeavor. And finally the Kansas Mason. Several years ago, we voted a one dollar per capita tax increase specifically for the Kansas Mason. Probably in the next year or so, with the rising cost of paper and printing, we won't be able to print six issues because it looks like that dollar is not going to get six issues out. We will probably go to five somewhere down the road. Brother Glenn German, who's taken over the printing of our Kansas Mason, turns

back all the money that he charges for that to the Grand Lodge. He actually takes next to nothing for this. Next time you see him 1 hope you tell him how much you appreciate it. Total disbursements $502,600. It's a balanced budget. As I look into the future and I've done some projections of what I see in Masonry coming down the road, I think that we have to look at past history and get a real realistic look at what's before us. Our Kansas Masonic Lodges have a long history of being a viable organization in each of your respective towns. Any many still are. However it is also a sad point that many of our lodges have consolidated. The average age of our Fraternity is 67 years old, and the Grand Lodge above is getting members at a much faster pace than any Grand Lodge here on Earth. Even with the most aggressive of membership programs, we will continue to lose members for years to come. If we continue to lose upwards to 2,000 Masons a year, and my brothers we were doing that, I'm proud to say that through your hard work of raising a great amount of Master Masons over that last couple of years, we have been able to cut that number down. And if you continue to do so, it'll be a wonderful deal. But if we should slide back to our old habits, and we do lose 2,000 members a year, that is a direct loss of income to your Kansas Grand Lodge of $20,000 per year. If we project this out over the year 2006, we could have fewer than 25,000 Masons in the State of Kansas. We could be down to a budget of less $225,000. With only $168,000 of that going toward actual Grand Lodge operations.
At the same time our fixed expenses have continued to rise, and there's nothing we can do about it. We have cut everywhere we can but the cost of inflation and the cost of living have continued to push our fixed expenses up. Projections are for our fixed budget to go up about 3% per year. You take that on a $500,000 budget, it's about $15,000 per year. Over the past several years we've had many of our long-term investments cashed in order to meet the expense of ovr Grand Lodge, and as you can see with our expenses expected to raise $ 15,000 and our income perhaps going down perhaps as much as $20,000, the time is now for us to look into the future, and pass our $5 i>er capita tax. Keeping in mind that none of this money will come to use until the year 1998. Because you will not collect this money imtil 1997 and pay the Grand Lodge until January 1, 1998. We have had some requests that if this is passed to institute some of the old programs back. Area meetings and Warden's schools are just a couple of these. If this passes, in probably 1998, these programs will be looked upon again. At that time, we may choose to try these programs again, and if yoin* attendance is good we will continue themâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;with your blessings. We just have to look that the realization of what's coming down. The appeal from our Grand Master this year to alleviate our $25,000 budget deficit met and exceeded our donations. The excess donations have been put into our long term investments that will be working for us for many years to come. And I think the men of Kansas that have stepped forward and gave freely of themselves to meet this budget crisis should be applauded by us all. It is the belief of the Council of Administration and was passed so at our Council meeting, that a Grand Lodge endowment fund should be formed. A 501 C-3 fund should be formed and any additional funds remaining from this extra $5 per capita tax increase should be put into this endowment fund. It is through this funding from the per capita tax overage and the private donations of Kansas Masons that the income from this Grand Lodge endowment fund will help insure Kansas Grand Lodge will survive for many years to come. At this time we going to open up the floor for some questions or comments, we would certainly welcome these. I think M.-. W.-. Warren Stams may have a comment or two that he would like to make. He is our Grand Treasiu-er and we have relied heavily on him for advice during this past year.
ARTICLE III Grand Lodge Funds, Salaries and Allowances Amendment to By-law 2-301: 2-301. GRAND LODGE PER CAPITA AND SPECIAL ASSESSMENT. - Every lodge working under a warrant of Constitution shall pay aiuiually to the Grand Lodge a Per Capita Tax of $10.00 $15.00 on the roll of membership for the preceding year, $7.00 $12.00 of which will go to the Masonic Grand Lodge, $1.00 of which will be used for the Kansas Mason only, and $3.00 of which shall go to the Kansas Masonic Home, 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 become effective on the lodge roll of membership determined on December 31st the following year. (Amended 1974, 1978, 1982, 1986, 1991.)

2-301 CHANGED TO READ: 2-301. GRAND LODGE PER CAPITA AND SPECIAL ASSESSMENT. - Every lodge working under a warrant of Constitution shall pay aimually to the Grand Lodge a Per Capita Tax of $15.00 on the roll of membership for the preceding year, $12.00 of which will go to the Masonic Grand Lodge, $1.00 of which will be used for the Kansas Mason only, and $3.00 of which shall go to the Kansas Masonic Home, 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 become effective on the lodge roll of membership determined on December 31st the following year. (Amended 1974, 1978, 1982, 1986, 1991.) RATIONALE: Inasmuch as the only real gain in Grand Lodge revenues has been $1.00 in 1991 to offset the cost of the Kansas Mason, Grand Lodge has not had an increase in Per Capita Tax since 1986. The costs to maintain the Grand Lodge on a daily basis have risen, as have your own daily operating expenses. We must increase the Per Capita Tax to bring us in line with these additional costs. The loss of membership (through atttition) alone has hampered, and cost the membership many important programs, because the funds were not available to maintain them. We cannot expect to operate Grand Lodge with decreasing revenues and everincreasing costs... This increase will provide the additional amount needed by our Grand Lodge to maintain the "status quo". Motion carried. M.-.W.-. Don E. Robinett, PGM moved to assess a one dollar per member one year only to counter the budget deficit for 1997. Motion carried. The votes were counted for the election of Grand Lodge Officers. R.-. W.-. Paul Lockwood gave the report. R.-. W.-. Jeff Sowder - Grand Master after serving one year as Deputy Grand Master R.-. W.-. T. Michael Fegan - Grand Senior Warden R.-.W.-. John Mowen - Grand Junior Warden M.-.W.-. F. Warren Stams - Grand Treasurer M.-.W.-. Don E. Robinett - Grand Secretary Brother Bob Davis came forward to give the Jurisprudence Committee report: M.-.W.-. Sir, this report of the Jurisprudence Committee covers the period of time from the ending of the Grand Lodge sessions in Salina one year ago through the time of the making of this report. The function of the committee is set forth in By-Law 2-119. Members of the committee have been privileged this past year to respond to requests and inquiries from the Grand Master, to assist in making the many decisions required of him. There also have been inquiries from various lodges as well as individual members. Especially interesting issues involved relations with other nearby Grand Jurisdictions caused when residents from the foreign jurisdictions received Masonic Degrees in Kansas without proper paperwork and waivers. The Grand Master handled these matters delicately. There's considerable business for the Grand Lodge to consider today, and the remainder of the report will consist of the several motions necessary to place them on the floor for action. Number 1 - The Jurisprudence committee recommends Grand Lodge approval of the edicts and orders of M.-.W.-. Morris Fisher issued during his year as Grand Master. I move adoption of this recommendation. MOTION CARRIED. At our Grand Lodge sessions a year ago, our incoming Grand Master presented for considerations several proposals. One of those has already been acted upon, the dues increase, which would have been the next motion. We also at that time ran out of consideration time for several motions that had been carried forward from the previous year proposed by the E. Dean Osbom as he was becoming Grand Master. Seven of those motions are still before us to be acted upon. Taking up those motions, those proposals from Morris Fisher, his proposition Number 1 concerning dual membership proposed change to By-Law 4-401A would eliminate that part of the sentence that says that a dual member shall not hold office in both lodges at the same time. I move adoption of this proposal. ARTICLE IV Membership Dimission and Transfer Cross-reference: Constitution, ART X, Sec 4 4-401 A. DUAL MEMBERSHIP. - A member of a lodge in this Grand Jurisdiction may become a member of a lodge in another Grand Jurisdiction in fraternal correspondence with this Grand Lodge, and a member of a lodge

in such other Grand Jiu-isdiction may become a member of a lodge in this Grand Jurisdiction. A Brother holding such memberships shall be bound by all the laws, rules and regulations governing each lodge, including the payment of all dues and assessments, and shall have all of the privileges of each lodge except he shall not hold office in both lodges at the same time. The suspension for expulsion of a Brother by such lodge of his membership shall be recognized by this Grand Jurisdiction, and upon receipt of official notice of such action, the lodge of his membership in this Grand Jurisdiction shall make a record of such action which shall have the same effect as though the suspension or expulsion had been taken by this Grand Jurisdiction. In the case of suspension for non-payment of dues, a delay period of 120 days shall be allowed for the certified notification of the member in question. The holder of a Dual Membership shall not have the right to request a dimit. (Adopted 1961.

A Brother holding such memberships shall be bound by all the laws, rules and regulations governing each lodge, including the payment of all dues and assessments, and shall have all of the privileges of each lodge. The suspension or expulsion of a brother by such lodge of his membership shall be recognized by this Grand Jurisdiction, and upon receipt of official notice of such action, the lodge of his membership in this Grand Jurisdiction shall make a record of such action which shall have the same effect as though the suspension or expulsion had been taken by this Grand Jurisdiction. In the case of suspension for non-payment of dues, a delay period of 120 days shall be allowed for the certified notification of the member in question. The holder of a Dual Membership shall not have the right to request a dimit. (Adopted 1961, Amended 1974 & 1983) MOTION CARRIED. The next proposal is Proposition #2. Proposed change to By-Law 4-40ID on plural membership. It is the same thing as the previous action we have taken. Eliminates from that paragraph the words that provided he cannot hold office in more than one lodge at the same time. I move adoption of this proposal. 4-40 ID. PLURAL MEMBERSHIP. - A member in good standing of a lodge in this Grand Jurisdiction may hold Plural Membership in other lodges in this Grand Jurisdiction paying dues and per capita in each lodge provided that he cannot hold offices in more than one lodge at the same time and provided iurther, that if he is suspended for any other reason than non-payment of dues in one, he shall be suspended in all. In the case of suspension for non-payment of dues, a delay period of 120 days shall be allowed for the certified notification of the member in question.

PLURAL MEMBERSHIP. - A member in good standing of a lodge in this Grand Jurisdiction may hold Plural Membership in other lodges in this Grand Jurisdiction paying dues and per capita in each lodge and provided that if he is suspended for any other reason than non-payment of dues in one, he shall be suspended in all. In the case of suspension for non-payment of dues, a delay period of 120 days shall be allowed for the certified notification of the member in question. (Adopted 1975, Amended 1983 & 1984) Ralionale: Many lodges within this Grand Jurisdiction do not have sufficient officers, and they are imable to recruit from their limited membership officers for their lodges. Changing these by-laws would allow some of the lodges to commingle their officers and once again fill the chairs. If, as a result, we save one lodge from extinction, the changes will have served their intended purpose. MOTION CARRIED. Next is Proposition #4. Proposed change to By-Law 4-201 time for initiation or advancement. Provides for wording that will mean that after 12 months. Entered Apprentices who have not completed their work may be removed from the roles. 1 move adoption of this proposal. Amendment to By-law 4-201: 4-201. TIME FOR INITIATION OR ADVANCEMENT. A Candidate who has been accepted shall not be required to present himself for initiation, or for advancement, within any limited time; nor shall any lapse of time work a forfeiture of any right or privilege he may have acquired.

4-201. CHANGED TO READ: 4-201. TIME FOR INITIATION OR ADVANCEMENT. A Candidate who has been accepted for membership shall be required to complete the degree work within Twelve (12) Months of his initiation, or forfeit all rights and privileges he may have acquired. Only the Grand Master may extend additional time. There will be no refund of monies paid. Candidates may re-petition. Rationale: Over the past three (3) years every effort has been made to contact those petitioners who, for reasons unknown, have failed to return to lodge to complete their work. Many uncompleted Petitions for the Mysteries are within the records of constituent lodges, and Grand Lodge has made every effort to allow those petitioners the opportunity to complete their work. To continue to maintain these petitions is a burden to our constituent lodges, and on the Grand Lodge office staff. MOTION FAILED. The next is a proposed change to Article III Section 3 of the Constitution. It presently provides, since an amendment in 1992, that actions of the Annual Communication would be effective one year or later. One year before any change. The proposed change would now make it 120 days or when published in the Annual Proceedings whichever came first. I move adoption of this recommendation. CONSTITUTION ARTICLE III, Sec. 3 Amendment to ART. Ill, Sec. 3: Sec. 3 - BY-LAWS. - The Grand Lodge shall have the power to enact By-Laws in aid of the provisions of this Constitution for the proper government and regulation of FreeMasonry, and shall also prescribe forms for the transaction of business. The By-laws enacted and additional forms prescribed at any Annual Communication, if the proposition therefore shall be sustained by two-thirds of all the members present and voting: Provided, such changes shall take effect only from their publication with the Annual Proceedings. Section 3. CHANGE LAST SENTENCE TO READ: "Provided, such changes shall take effect only from their publication with the Annual Proceedings, or 120 days, whichever comes first." Section 3. CHANGED TO READ: Sec. 3 - By-Laws. The Grand Lodge shall have the power to enact By-Laws in aid of the provisions of this Constitution for the proper government and regulation of FreeMasonry, and shall also prescribe forms for the transaction of business. The By-Laws enacted and additional forms prescribed at any Annual Communication, if the proposition therefore shall be sustained by two-thirds of all the members present and voting: Provided, such changes shall take effect only from their publication with the Annual Proceedings, or 120 days, whichever comes first. Rationale: Experience has shown that the current requirement of a one (1) year delay before any change becomes law is confusing, does not accomplish a positive result for the Craft, and, in fact, has a negative result in that, in effect, more than two years pass before any changes become law. SPECIAL NOTE: ARTICLE III, Sec. 3. Was changed to require one (1) year after Passage, before becoming law, by a two-thirds (2/3) vote of the Craft at the special session called in August of 1992 by M.-. W.-. Richard D. Overton. This change has not been printed in By-laws yet. MOTION CARRIED. Carried over from last year's session, because we didn't have time to act on it, I have several proposals. Proposition#I3 carried over, is a proposed change to Article IX Section 5 of the laws of Kansas Masonry as to quorum. The change would be to make it possible to transact business and conferrals when open on any degree. I move adoption of this proposal. Proposition #13 Proposed Change to ARTICLE IX, Section 5: Sec. 5. QUORUM. - A Lodge of Entered Apprentices consists of seven or more, and may be composed of one Master Mason and six Entered Apprentices. A Lodge of Fellow Crafts consists of five or more, and may be

Proceedings of the

composed of two Master Masons and three Fellow Crafis. A Lodge of Master Masons consists of three or more, and may be composed of three Master Masons; and a Any Lodge so constituted may be opened for the conferral of degrees and the transaction of business on any Degree. Provided: but in no case shall any business be transacted in any Lodge on any degree, unless there shall be present at least seven Uuse Master Masons, who are members of such Lodge and entitled to vote therein. Cross Reference: By-Laws, Sees. 3-402,3-403. Rationale: Many smaller Lodges find it impossible to congregate seven Master Masons for their meetings. They would prefer not to give up their Charters and they would prefer not to falsify their records in order to establish a Quorum. These Lodges should be allowed to operate without embannssment and without the fear of reprisal. It is to the credit of the Fraternity that they have the desire to keep alive that spark of enthusiasm for FreeMasonry in their community regardless of how small that spark may be. MOTION TABLED TO NEXT YEAR. Next is the proposal to add a Section 5A Quorum when a Lodge has less than 40 Master Masons on his roll as reported on the previous year's Annual Report to the Grand Lodge it shall be allowed to transact the business of the Lodge when there shall be at least five Master Masons present who are members of the lodge and entitled to vote. 1 move adoption of this proposal. Proposition #3 carried over fi-om last year. Proposition M Proposed Change to ARTICLE IX, Section 5: Section 5. QUORUM. - A Lodgeof Entered Apprentices consists of seven or more, and may be composed of one Master Mason and six Entered Apprentices. A Lodge of Fellow Crafts consists of five or more, and may be composed of two Master Masons and three Fellow Crafts. A Lodge of Master Masons consists of three or more, and may be composed of three Master Masons; and any Lodge so constituted may be opened for the conferral of degrees, but in no case shall any business be transacted in any Lodge on any degree, unless there shall be present at least seven Master Masons, who are members of such Lodge and entitled to vote therein. Cross-Reference: By-Laws, Sees. 3-402,3-403. Be it resolved that a new section be added to ARTICLE IX, to be designated Section 5A. Section 5 A. Quorum - When a Lodge has less than fortv f401 Master Masons on its roll as reported on the previous vear's Annual Report to the Grand Lodge, it shall be allowed to tjan.sact the business of the lodfle. when there shall be at lea.st five (5^ Master Masons present who are members of that Lodge and entitled to vote. Rationale: This new section will protect the smaller Lodges in this Grand Jurisdiction who find it to be a near impossibility to have seven (7) Master Masons present for a Stated Communication. Submitted By; Members of Palestine Lodge No. 127, Edgerton, Kansas. MOTION CARRIED. Next is Proposition #14 Proposed change to By-law 3-405 Final Stated Communication. Eliminating the words requiring of monthly meeting and then inserting no less than four different months shall hold meetings no less than foiu calendar months in the calendar year, one of which shall be a December. Proposition 014 Proposed Change to By-Law 3-405: 3-405. TIME OF STATED COMMUNICATION. - Each Chartered Lodge shall prescribe in its By-Laws the time for holding each of its Stated Communications. The time shall be fixed by specifying a certain day in one or more weeks of each month, and at least one Stated Commimication shall be held no less than four different months during the calendar vear. one of which .shall be December, and not later than the third week in each month; Provided; that any Lodge may omit Stated Conmiimications during the months of July and August. Cross Reference: Constitution, ART. IX, Sec. 3.

Rationale: Many smaller Lodges find it difficult, if not impossible, to hold monthly meetings. As long as they have the desire to remain even semi-active, they should be allowed to do so rather than face consolidations and the loss of their identity. MOTION FAILED. Next on my sheet is Proposition #10 Proposed change to the Constitution Article X Section 5 Proceedings upon petitions. Makes it possible to act upon a membership at a special communication rather than as a stated communication and eliminates the proposition that two weeks mxist elapse between the first and second degrees and between the times of conferring the second and third degrees. I move adoption of the proposal. Proposition #10 Proposed Change to Constitution, ARTICLE X, Sec. 5: Sec. 5. PROCEEDINGS UPON PETITIONS. Every proceeding upon the petition of a candidate for the Mysteries of Masonry, or of an applicant for Membership must be taken at a Stated mav be received at a Special Communication of the Lodge; and a period of not less than two weeks must elapsefi-omthe date the petition is received and referred to the Committee of Investigation, and the time of their report and final action thereon by ballot. Provided, that in no case shall final action bv ballot be taken at anv meeting other than a Stated Communication. When a candidate for the Mysteries of Masonry has been accepted, he may immediately, or at any time thereafter, be initiated as an Entered Apprentice; but a period of not less than two weeks must elapse between the times of conferring the First and Second Degrees, and between the times of conferring the Second and Third Degrees. Cross Reference: Constitution, Art. VI, Sec. 5(d); By-Laws, 4-119, 4-119A. 4-202. Rationale: 1. If a Lodge meets once a month, or less, they need a vehicle to expedite petitions, otherwise a petitioner can lose that spark of enthusiasm that prompted him to join. Example: Cross Roads Lodge meets on the first Monday of each month. A petition is turned in on the first Tuesday. It cannot be officially received until the next month and cannot be balloted upon until the following month. This process can take 8 to 9 weeks before the petitioner finds out if we are interested in him. Allowing petitions to be received at Special Communications, and balloted on at Stated Communications only, will in no way impair the proper investigation procedures and will allow Lodges to conduct business in a more efficient manner. 2. If a candidate is ready to advance to his next Degree in less than two weeks, no good purpose is served by requiring him to wait. He will only wonder why his efforts are not appreciated. A forced delay would only serve to give him a negative impression of the Fraternity and diminish his enthusiasm. Lodges will also have the advantage of scheduling their Degree work at the convenience of the Lodge and the candidate. MOTION CARRIED. Next that I have is Proposition #11 Proposed change to By-law 4-202 which strikes the entire section having to do with two weeks between degrees. I move adoption of this proposal. Proposition #11 Proposed Change to By-Law 4-202: 4-202. TWO WEEKS BETWEEN DEGREES. Two weeks must elapse between the dates of conferring the First and Second Degrees, and between the dates of conferring the Second and Third Degrees, and between the dates of conferring the Second and Third Degrees, upon any candidate for the Mysteries for Advancement, unless such time is abridged by the Grand Master by special dispensation. Any Lodge violating this provision may be required to pay Ten Dollars as a penalty for such violation; and the Grand Master may apply such other disciplinary measures as to him may seem proper. (Amended 1968). Cross Reference: Constitution, ART. X, Sec. 5; By-Laws 4-119, 4-119A. Rationale: Same rationale as for Constitufion, ART. X, Sec. 5. MOTION CARRIED. Next I have is Proposition #19 Proposed change to By-law 2-113 inserting that the chairman of the standing committees shall a present or past master and the committee itself can then make reports to the Annual Communication upon all matters referred to them. I move adoption of this proposal.

Proceedings of the
March
Proposition #19 Proposed Change to By-Law 2-113: 2-113. STANDING COMMITTEE - REPORTS. The Chairman of the Standing Committees shall he a composed of present or Past Masters, and the Committees shall make reports at the Annual Communication upon all matters referred to them, including questions submitted for their opinions by any officer or member of the Grand Lodge, and upon matters referred to them during the recess of the Grand Lodge by any elective Grand Officers, advisory to his official duties. Cross Reference; ART.VI, Sec. 13. Rationale: All Committees should be composed of the most qualified members who can best serve the interest of the Grand Lodge. We have a wealth of talent that could be available to the Grand Lodge, but cannot be utilized because some of these men are not Past Masters. Example: it is in the best interest of the Grand Lodge to have all members of the Jurisprudence Committee and the Trials & Punishment Committee skilled in the profession of Law. It is difficult, if not all but impossible, for a Grand Master to find ten attorneys who are also Past Masters. The Committee on Public Schools & Total Youth is best served by members who have a connection with the school system and youth organizations. The Committee on Finance is best served by members who have financial backgrounds. MOTION CARRIED. Next 1 have is Proposition #5 Proposed change to By-law 4-108 concerning petitions for restoration or reinstatement. Brother Al Arnold moved to strike "of a Mason"fi-omthe Proposition. Motion carried. Pronositinn #.S Proposed Change to By-Law 4-108: 4-108. PETITIONS FOR RESTORATION OR REINSTATEMENT - TO WHAT LODGE. - A petitioner for Restoration or Reinstatement shall apply only to the Lodge by which he was suspended or expelled; Provided, if such Lodge has ceased to work, he may apply to any Lodge within the jurisdiction of the Grand Lodge. Restoration or reinstatement is to membership in the Lodge which restores or reinstates him; but if the Lodge which suspended or expelled him has ceased to work he cannot be restored or reinstated by the Lodge within whose jurisdiction he resides except by unanimous ballot. (Amended 1982). Cross Reference; By-Laws 4-128, 4-135. Rationale: Housekeeping; The Cross References spell out the eliminated statement, to leave it as is would be redundant. MOTION CARRIED AS AMENDED. Next I have is Proposition #20 proposed change to By-lay 4-113 Transmittal of request adding that request within this Grand Jurisdiction may be made in writing directly to the Lodge that is requested to do the work by the requesting Lodge. It would no longer have to go through the Grand Secretary's office. Proposition #20 Proposed Change to By-Law 4-113; 4-113. TRANSMITTAL OF REQUESTS. - Every request for conferring Degrees whether made to a Lodge within or without outside of this Grand Jurisdiction shall be sent to the Grand Secretary for transmittal to the Lodge that is requested to do the work. Requests within this Grand Jurisdiction mav be made, in writing. directiv to the Lodge that is requested to do the work hv the requesting Lodge. It is the responsibilitv of the requesting Lodge to make proper recording of the Degrees for transminal to the Grand Secretary's office. Cross Reference: By-Laws, Sec. 3-613. Rationale: The present system places an undue burden on the Grand Secretary's office and only serves to delay the process. If only Secretaries were allowed to vote on this issue, it would probably pass by a imanimous vote. MOTION CARjyED. That completes the report of the Jurisprudence Committee. It was moved to accept the report as a whole.

Motion carried. M.-.W.-. Morris L. Fisher asked Brother Fletcher to honor the brethren with a few words of wisdom. Brother Dee Duttweiler was nominated and unanimously elected to succeed himself on the Masonic Home Board. The Grand Master called from refreshment to labor. W.-. Bob Tomlinson to conduct a lodge of sorrow and give the Necrology report. REPORT OF THE NECROLOGY COMMITTEE We meet again to set aside a few minutes to honor our departed Brethren who have laid down their working tools of Masonry to journey to that undiscovered country from whose bourne no traveler returns. They labored while among us to prepare a way for us to follow. Within our own jurisdiction we note with sorrow the loss of M.-.W.-. Carroll C. Amett who was Grand Master in 1969 as well as many other brethren. There are so many right and fine characteristics in the life of each we cannot list them all â&#x20AC;&#x201D;but we remember. We hold a feeling of gratitude because they were with us and contributed to our value of life. Surely in these moments under the ministry of worship we will be lifted above our bereavement and catch a glimpse of the triumph of God's way of loving each other. Their passing reminds us that life is brief for Psalm 90:10 records, "The days of our years are three score years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be four score years, yet in their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off'. The Psalmist knew the secret of life was not found in wealth, power, and prestige but in the possession of the spiritual resources of the world beyond. Death is the gateway through which we all must pass. It is an event which sets the spirit free to dwell with God throughout all eternity. Therefore we must lay for ourselves a crown of righteousness which is the only thing we can take with us when we depart this earthly life. Our Departed Brethren would admonish us that before our spirit wings its flight to that House not Made With Hands that we must be found worthy by benefit of living a pure and righteous life with a firm faith and reliance on Divine providence if we are to obtain an admission to the Grand Celestial lodges above. There to see the Grand Architect of the universe face to face and dwell with Him forever in the endless cycles of eternity. Farewell My Brethren until we meet again. Amen. M.-.W.-. Conrad F. Johnson, PGM, Chairman Brother Jon Robinson armounced Delberl C. Murphy of Topeka won the afgan from the Home. The Grand Master thanked the Area Deputy Grand Masters, District Deputy Grand Masters, Grand Lodge Lecturers, Grand Lodge Representatives for their efforts and support and dedication to Masonry. The Deputy Grand Master gave instructions to his incoming officers for the installation. REPORT OF THE CREDENTIALS COMMITTEE To the M.-.W.-.

A number of other items were received, reviewed, discussed and acted upon by the COA if not reported elsewhere in the proceedings of the annual communication of Grand Lodge. They may be read in each of the recorded minutes of the Council of Administration which are kept in the Grand Lodge Building in Topeka, Kansas. All meetings and discussions were cordial and harmony prevailed at all times within the Council of Administration. Fraternally Submitted, T. Michael Fegan, Grand Junior Warden Secretary of the Council of Administration REPORT OF THE TRIALS AND PUNISHMENT COMMITTEE Two matters have been referred during the past year to this committee for consideration, both of which are pending. It is anticipated that final disposition thereof will be made before March 15, 1996. Respectfully submitted, Donald J Horttor, Chairman REPORT OF THE MASONIC EDUCATION COMMITTEE To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: During the year of 1995 the Kansas Masonic University, working with and being a part of the Masonic Education Committee completed and sent to all Lodges of Kansas several short talk papers and a letter encouraging the Masonic Education Committee of each Lodge to offer more to the members than just the average meetings, and to stimulate interest in further knowledge about our Craft. The five KMU courses were available and brethren from across the state availed themselves of these courses, as well as the course offered for our Ladies. There is a new publication available now from Grand Lodge called "For the New Master Mason". Something the Lodges can provide to all New Master Masons. It contains just enough information to invoke and stimulate in them, (we hope) a desire to return to Lodge and become active participants in the operations and management of the Lodge. Again we wish to say "Thank You Jim". My Brethren; It could not be done without W.-. Brother Jim Stone, who grades, makes the certificates, returns the completed courses, and takes care of all the proficiency support reports that are sent to the committee. The members of the Masonic Education/Kansas Masonic University Committee are proud of those members who have indicated a desire for additional knowledge through KMU and we are happy and glad to have been able to provide this service to our Craft. Fraternally and Respectfully submitted, Paul A. Lockwood, Chairman James E. Stone Rodney Ritchey James E. Russell John Wolf. Advisor REPORT OF THE TOTAL YOUTH AND PUBLIC SCHOOLS COMMITTEE To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: The purpose of the Total Youth and Public Schools Committee is set forth in section 2-124C of the By-Laws of the Grand Lodge of Kansas which charges to committee with the responsibility of developing a program in support of and strengthening the free public school system. This year we again held a state wide essay contest for juniors and seniors attending Kansas public high schools and promoted the American Heritage Public School month in February. This year, with the consent of our Grand Master Morris L. Fisher, we made a change in the essay contest rule by eliminating gender, boys and girls. With this change we were able to increase the amounts of each scholarship making First prize worth $2000.00, Second prize $1500.00, Third prize $1000.00, Fourth prize $500.00, we also awarded three Honorable Mentions. The essay topic for the 1995

Proceedings of the

year was "The Environment and Our Future." A number of essays were submitted to Grand Lodge for final judgement. All the essays were first screened by a committee consisting of Bro. Royal Brown, M/.W.-. Richard D. Kelsey, PGM and M,-.W.-. Conrad Johnson, PGM, who selected the best of the essays submitted to a committee consisting of the original three judges plus members of the total youth and public school committee for final judgement. Wirmers were: 1st Place - Kami Lyn Hawks 2nd Place - Sally Shughart 3rd Place - Robin Roth 4th Place - Sarah Koehn Honorable Mention - Tania Evon Mears Honorable Mention - Elizabeth Stratman Honorable Mention - Tamara Suderman The title for the 1996 Public School Essay contest will be: "DISCIPLINE LIMITS OF PUBLIC SCHOOL EDUCATION." Lodges are encourages to contact their local high schools alerting Juniors and Seniors of the opportunity presented by the 1996 Essay Contest. The Youth represented by Job's Daughters, Rainbow Girls and DeMolay were supported by the committee in their travels throughout the state. We recognize this is an area which demands and deserves the full support of all Masons. RECOMMENDATION The committee would recommend that the awards for scholarships be increased, this is a vital link between Masonry and the Public School. Masonry is steadily losing its position as a leader in our communities, to reduce this vital link would only accelerate the decline. ACKNOWLEDGMENT The committee thanks the Essay contest judges and we thank the lodges who sent in Essays for their work with the schools in their area. We thank all Masons who dedicated work to the youth of our state. A Special thanks to the Grand Lodge Staff, we appreciate the extra efforts they made in helping the committee. The Total Youth and Public Schools committee appreciates the opportunity of serving Masonry and the youth of Kansas. M.'.W.-. Conrad F. Johnson, Chairman W.-. James W. Gilmore W.-. Kenneth H.

& TEMPLE BUILDING AND REMODELING For the 140th Annual Communication, ofThe Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and accepted Masons of Kansas: Most Worshipful Grand Master Morris L. Fisher, Grand Lodge Officers, and Members of Grand Lodge and Brothers. The Committee had three communications relative to Temple Building and Remodeling, which were as follows. May 24, 1995, Gardner Lodge No. 65, Gardner, Kansas, requested approval to purchase the building they have been leasing since the early 1900's. The Lodge has the funds necessary to purchase the property without borrowing money. The Committee gave approval to the Gardner Lodge No. 65, to proceed with their purchase. October 10,1995, Fortitude Lodge No. 107, Independence, Kansas, requested approval to sell their property because of its poor condition, and to pursue to find a ground floor building, or build a new building. Approval was given to proceed with their request.

The Grand Lodge suggests to Lodges dealing with any real estate transactions in buying, selling, leasing or remodeling, that they be represented by an Attorney, and that all transactions to be approved by a majority of the members voting at a regular stated meeting of the Lodge. The Grand Lodge encourages all Lodges to Maintain their Lodge Temples, in good condition and repair, so they are beautiful landmarks in the Community. The Committee received four requests for consolidation. August 1, 1995, and Edict was issued consolidating Waverly Lodge No. 244, with Burlington No. 66, Burlington Lodge being the survivor. September 1, 1995, an Edict was issued to consolidate Jenning Lodge No. 360, with Mountain Slope Lodge No. 186, Oberlin, Kansas. Mountain Slope Lodge being the survivor. November 29, 1995, an Edict was issued to consolidate Alpha Lodge No. 282, Hanston, Kansas, with St. Bernard Lodge No. 222, Dodge City, Kansas. St. Bernard Lodge No. 222, being the survivor. The Committee wishes to thank the Grand Master, giving us the opportunity to serve the Grand Master, and the Grand Lodge. Fraternally Submitted; W. Nolan Artz, PGM Chairman Waiter M. Bird Damon M. Grimes Darrell R. Miller REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON RITUALISTIC WORK To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: TheCommitteeonRitualistic Work met in Wichita on August 11, 1995. Committee members present were William Brown, Frank Baldwin, Richard Haefele, Robert Shklar, Ronald White and John French. Many things were discussed including the addition of a section on Masonic Protocol to the District School program and the assignment of Grand Lecturers to each of the Schools. The committee, as a whole, accepted the Grand Master's appointment of W.-. Joe Ballew, W.-. William Sellen, W.-. Leland Salts and W.-. Terry Carter as Assistant Grand Lecturer. The committee also recognized that there are some District Lecturers who could be assigned to a Grand Lecture to train for the position of Assistant Grand Lecturer. These assignments to be made at the Lecturers meeting. The Committee met with the Grand Master, Grand Lecturers, Area Lecturers and District Lecturers on Saturday, August 12,1995. All the work for the Spring District Schools was exemplified including questions and clarification as the work progressed. The majority in attendance indicated that it was an outstanding meeting. The committee wishes to commend our Lecturers on their devotion to the Fraternity and steady attachment to the teachings and principles of Masonry. The attendance at District School is still a concern. The committee asked the Grand Master to send a letter of encouragement to each Lodge requesting their attendance at the Schools. The committee has also received permissionfi^omthe Deputy Grand Master to poll the incoming District Deputies regarding the consolidation of two or more Districts for the Schools held in 1997. The decision for this request was based on the fact that there are Lodges in many Districts that apparently have elected not to attend the District School, some Districts have a small number of Lodges due to consolidation and the current financial situation of Grand Lodge. There is encouragement in the reports of our Lecturers that those who are attending the District Schools, and participating in the work, are doing very good work. Respectfully Submitted, William J. Brown, PGM, Chairman A. Franklin Baldwin Robert K. Shklar

Proceedings of the
March
REPORT OF THE FOREIGN RELATIONS COMMITTEE To the M.'. W.-. Grand Master and Members of Grand Lodge Assembled: The Committee wishes to express its appreciation to M.-.W.-. Morris L. Fisher, Grand Master for their appointment. The absence of an active Grand Secretary has, we are certain, created many problems for the Craft but this Committee wants to thank the staff of our Grand Lodge for their prompt and efficient attention to our needs. Deborah Kennamore, Office Manager (and, in reality, our working Grand Secretary) has done well in learning the work of this Committee. We thank the Grand Lodge that our 1995 report was officially received and all resolutions were adopted. The statement of official adoption of the recoitunendations was unintentionally omitted from the 1995 Proceedings and needs to be noted here. We mourn the death this past year of our valued companion and brother W.-. Raymond D. Hough. His long term service and commitment to the Foreign Relations Committee will be missed. CONGRATULATIONS: to the newly Constituted Provincial Grand Lodge of Ireland in Jamaica West Indies February 4, 1995 in Kingston Jamaica. This rare event of the Constituting and Installation of officers of a newly formed Grand lodge was attended by W.-. Robert L. Tomlinson Jr. and M.-.W.-. Forrest D. Haggard. Jamaica has three Grand Lodges on the Island; English, Scottish and Irish and they are in full recognition and regularity with our Grand Lodge. The Grand Master and Grand Secretary of Ireland along with Brothers Tomlinson and Haggard constituted the only 'white' faces in a large gathering of over 500 Masonic leaders from the Caribbean. APPOINTMENTS: The Grand Master has been pleased to appoint the following Grand Representatives since our last report. Representatives from them to us are: M.. W.. Charles I. Gregg PGM, near the Grand Lodge of Alaska R.-. W.-. Jim McCartney, Deputy Grand Superintendent of Works, near Grand Lodge of South Australia. W.-. Carlos Alberto Inacio Alexandre, near the Grand Lodge of Sao Paulo Brazil. Brother Timo Pavio, near the Grand Lodge of Finland. Brother Emilio Romeo, near the Grand Orient of Italy. Brother Robert N. Runion, representing the Grand Lodge of Costa Rica. Brother Paul A. Lockwood, representing the Grand Lodge of Czechoslovakia. Brother Larry C. Reeder, representing the Grand Lodge of Japan. Brother Riza Mizrak Gursoy, representing the Grand Lodge of Turkey. W.-. Michael Gable, representing the Grand Lodge of Romania. W.-. John A. Golden, representing the Grand Lodge of Yogoslavia. W.-. Harold O. Drennen, representing the Grand Lodge of Sao Paulo Brazil. R.-. W.-. J. Sam Burton, representing the Grand Lodge of South Carolina. Appointments to be made by the 1997 report should include the Grand Lodge of Senegal, Grand Lodges of the state of Alagoas and the State of Rio Grand North both of Brazil. And, by that time, we assume the Grand Lodge of TOGOLAISE will be recognized and need an exchange of Representatives. DEATHS: Our Committee has been notified of some of the deaths Grand Lodge Officers of other Grand Jurisdictions but these items rightfully belong with the Committee on Correspondence. CELEBRATIONS: 1996 will mark 3,000 years since the founding of Jerusalem. Jerusalem is the site of King Solomon's Temple and the Quarries that furnished the stone for the Temple and since 1886 the Quarries have furnished the meeting sites for Masonic Lodges. The Grand Lodge of the State of Israel is actively pursuing plans for building an International Masonic Complex in Jerusalem. Masons who visit the Holy Land dining 1996 should be aware that many celebrative events will take place during the year. COMMUNICATIONS: India: Factions within India are attempting to form a new 'Grand Lodge of South India'. The present one Grand Lodge is fighting any such attempts. We predict, due to the size of India, that, in time, there will be more that one Grand Lodge in that Country. We may soon be granting recognition to the Grand Lodge of Upper India. The Grand Lodge of India and the Grand Lodge of England are still embroiled in controversy over territorial rights. CUBA: The Grand Lodge de Cuba will be honoring the memory of Brother Franklin Delano Rooseveh on the 50th anniversary ofthe date of his death, April 12, 1996 and wrote asking for'assistance' in this activity. We feel a letter of congratulations would be in order.

TURKEY: Grand Lodge of Turkey wrote asking if we had a student exchange program. We replied that we had no such program but encouraged them in their endeavor. SWITZERLAND: Grand Lodge Alpina: Internal problems still seem to plague this Grand Lodge with resignations of Grand Lodge Officers. BULGARIA: This Grand Lodge was reactivated in 1992 by the Grand Lodge of Yogoslavia and is now under stress due to internal conflict. ITALY: The Grand Lodge of Italy is recognized by this Grand Lodge. We do not recognize the National Grand Lodge of Italy, newly formed and recognized by the Grand Lodge of England. We feel that the recognition by England of the National (new) and not the Orient (old and original) was purely political in nature. It may well be, in the future, that we will recognize BOTH Grand Lodges just as we need to consider recognition of BOTH the Grand Orient and the Grand Lodge in France. YUGOSLAVIA: Commimications and Greetings from Grand Lodge tell of their continued struggle for world wide recognition from other Grand Lodges. We recognize this Grand Lodge. NOVA SCOTIA (CANADA): Greetings from our Grand Representative near their Grand Lodge, W.-. Brother Frederick C. Armitage with copies of the program of their Aimual Commimication. This was a nice gesture and our committee would hope that our Kansas Brothers who are Grand Representatives would do likewise. OREGON (USA): The in-fighting and problems of Grand Lodges in the North West USA continues. The Grand Master of Oregon rescinded all Masonic Recognition of the Grand Encampment of the USA and ordered all funds of the Oregon Grand Commandery withheld from the Grand Encampment. All this came about when the Grand Master of the Grand Encampment asked the Grand Commander of Oregon to attend a Commandery meeting in Idaho. Oregon Grand Lodge has siispended all relationships with the Grand Lodge of Idaho. Masonry will not be destroyed by the enemies from outside but from inside. CZECH REPUBLIC: Work is continuing on a MASONIC CENTER to house a Library and the Grand Lodge Offices. It is amazing to this committee how these new Grand Lodges made up of only a handfril of men in countries that are still economically depressed are so enthusiastic and forward thinking about the Craft and are engages in BUILDING while we in Kansas are in a depressed mode and downsizing our buildings and financial programs. Could we be taking our Masonry for granted?? PRINCE HALL: December 1995: Prince Hall is formally recognized with mutual rights of visitation by the following Grand Lodges in North America: CALIFORNIA, COLORADO, CONNECTICUT, IDAHO, MASSACHUSETTS, MINNESOTA, NEBRASKA, NORTH DAKOTA, OHIO, VERMONT, WASHINGTON, WISCONSIN, WYOMING, NEW BRUNSWICK, NOVA SCOTIA, PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND, AND QUEBEC as well other Grand Jurisdictions including the Grand Lodge of England to the mother Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Massachusetts. By formal action of the 1995 Kansas Grand Lodge we now recognize Prince Hall as legitimate and regular and our Grand Secretary need to so notify the Masonic Service Association. We do not have mutual recognition and visitation with Kansas Prince Hall Grand Lodge but are still in the formative commimication stages with them. But by Grand Lodge Action in 1995 Kansas Masons have no Kansas Masonic problems visiting Lodges in any state where Prince Hall is recognized and having commimication and visitation. In October of 1995, the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite (NJ) and the Supreme Council NMJ, Prince Hall Affiliation adopted a resolution that recognizes the legitimacy of the two Supreme Councils and provides for Scottish Rite Recognition in those states where the Grand Lodge has extended recognition. Members of this Grand Lodge who have taken an interest in Research (The Philalethes Society, Scottish Rite Research Society, or our own KANSAS LODGE OF RESEARCH) are probably knowledgeable of all of the above report and are true Masons in both heart and mind. Most Worshipful Grand Master: I move and Ben Boyles Seconds the ACCEPTANCE AND ADOPTION OF THIS REPORT AND ALL BUSINESS CONTAINED THEREIN: Fratemally Signed, Forrest D. Haggard, PGM, Chairman Ben W. Boyles, PGM, Member And by Special Dispensation of the G.-.W.-.O.-.T.-.U.-. W.-. Raymond D. Hough, Member

REPORT OF THE PUBLICATION COMMITTEE To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: TTie publications committee is happy to report that the past six issues of THE KANSAS MASON have each contained eight pages. This is the 34th year of continuous publication of this most important commimication tool for the Craft of Kansas. This completes my first year as editor and I have enjoyed it, trying to revitalize the layout and presentation and sell more advertising to keep us withing our budget limits. We have tried to publish more photos and events about each of the lodges in the state and I thank all the secretaries of each lodge as well as other members for submitting their stories. I would remind you that this is your newspaper and we have not had space problems because of too much to print. I invite and encourage you to submit your stories and photos to make the publication even more valuable. I also ask that you please type the copy because sometimes hand written copy results in name errors. I also serve as the advertising manager for this publication and have tried to sell more advertising to keep us within our budget. If you look through the bills you can see the bulk of the money goes for postage and we all know this is not going to decrease. If you are a member and are in business, this is a good value for your advertising dollar and suggest you give it a try. If you sell through-out the state or a large region it is even a belter buy and serves the cause of Masonry well. I thank Most Worshipful Fisher for the honor of serving in this position and his wonderful cooperation as well as the help from the Grand Lodge staff in gathering and preparing the messages we have been able to bring to the Craft. Respectfully submitted, Glenn R. German, Editor THE KANSAS MASON REPORT OF THE CORRESPONDENCE COMMITTEE To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: This committee consists of one person being the Chairman and the activities of the committee have been confined during the year just closing with writing lettersof condolence to the Grand Lodge of the Grand Jurisdiction where the death of a distinguished Brother has occurred. Regrets are sent to the Grand Secretary, normally because that is the address that I can find in the book of annual proceedings. If I have the Grand Master's name he will receive a copy. The Grand Master of Kansas will receive a copy as well as the Office of the Grand Secretary. This has been an especially busy year but in a way it is a rewarding year. The rewarding part comes in writing to a Grand Lodge who has lost a distinguished member, generally, a Past Grand Master or occasionally a member of the Grand Family. In the year just closed I had a Christmas Card returned to a former Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Manitoba. I had seen him on several occasions since I met him as an official visitor to the Grand Lodge of Kansas and I had kept in contact with him for many year. Another sadness was to learn of the death of the widow of a former Grand Master of Iowa and to have the pleasure of a letter from a daughter telling of her mother's death. Since her husband, Hoyt Woody, had been in our home, he had installed me as Chaplain of Comer Stone Lodge, number 219 AF&AM and it had been a long time pleasant friendship. Permit me to suggest the opportunity that Masonry affords to meet Brothers throughout the world and it is a small world at that. It takes a little bit of effort and it takes a friendly attitude to walk up to visitors to our Grand Lodge from other Grand Jurisdictions and to get acquainted with them. Visiting Brother and who knows but what it might lead to a long time friendship. Give it a try please. Fraternally submitted. Arthur C. Hodgson, PGM Chairman

REPORT OF THE MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of Kansas: The Membership committee has again this year focused on two primary programs, the "Prospect Night" and "Masonic Renewal 2000". We have also promoted Membership Management and Membership Development. Books and videos addressing Membership Management and Membership Development are available from your Grand Lodge Office. A membership survey was conducted this year. Each Lodge was requested to complete a survey form and return it to Grand Lodge. Although only 28% of our Lodges responded, we feel some good numbers were returned. I think there was some confusion on some of the questions and if the survey is conducted again, the form will be rewritten and hopefully more easily interpreted. Some of the Lodges reported good results in conducting a Prospect Night, some reported bad results. I think the Lodges that had a bad experience with their Prospect Night, tried to conduct them on their own. We have 26 dedicated Masons across the State who have the information, and are willing to donate their time, to help you plan, promote, and present a successful Prospect Night. If it is done correctly, by the book, so to speak, they can be successful. If your Lodge has not been contacted by one the Membership Committee members, and you wish to have a Prospect Night, contact me and I will put them in touch with you. The entire committee wishes to express our appreciation to our Most Worshipful Grand Master, Morris L. Fisher, for his leadership and for the opportunity to serve the Grand Lodge of Kansas. Fraternally submitted for the entire Committee, Stanley D. Browning Chairman REPORT OF THE COURIER COMMITTEE To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: The Courier committee members are pleased to be a part of and assist our Grand Master at his 140th Annual Communications of the Grand Lodge of Kansas. The duties take place just prior to and during Grand Lodge, assisting the Grand Master and other Grand Lodge officers in making this a most enjoyable and pleasant time for everyone. The members of the Courier Committee wish to thank M.-.W.-. Morris L. Fisher for the privilege of serving this Grand Lodge in this capacity during his year as Grand Master. Respectfully submitted, Charles E. Singhisen, Chairman Earl Brown Donald L. Doll Charles W. McClain 11

REPORT OF THE PATRIOTISM COMMITTEE To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: In 1995 the committee took part in nine Masonic activities, with an audience of more than 2,500 Masons and members of the Masonic Appendant Bodies, their families and friends. We were proud to present and post the Colors for the Grand Lodge Installation on March 25. We were proud of our continuing role of Color Guard at the opening ceremonies of the East-West Shrine Football Game on July 29. Our other activities included posting the Colors at Lodge, Scottish Rite and York Rite functions, as well as our "Building The Flag" and "Folding The Flag" programs. In addition to our Masonic activities, the committee presented programs at 49 non-Masonic functions, double the number in 1994. They were viewed by audiences totaling more than 5,000 persons. These programs were presented to schools, churches, fraternal, civic and youth groups. We are most gratified by the response we get from school and scouting groups, and feel the programs have a very positive influence on our young audiences, both from a patriotic and fraternal point of view. We are still told that we have introduced many in our audience to material they had never previously learned about the origins of our country and our flag.

Again, we urge each Lodge to establish a Patriotism Committee and an ongoing Patriotic program. The committee will assist in preparing such a program on request. Fraternally submitted, Donald S. Nisbett, Chairman James M. Brown Robert B. Crumpton

REPORT OF THE OPERATION "KAN" COMMITTEE We are now in the age of computers, answering machines and calling machines, machines that will tell you what to do when making a telephone call, which number to punch and after punching several numbers you can never, never get a person you can talk to. When a member of the Operation "KAN" committee calls a newly made amputee or a member of their family they know that they are not talking to a machine, but a person who cares. A big thanks for the support that Grand Lodge gives this program. Glenn L. Knapp, Chairman REPORT OF THE LIBRARY COMMITTEE To the Most Worshipful Grand Master, Grand Officers, Brethren: Disposition of the hundreds of extra copies of Grand Lodge Proceedings stored on the shelves of the Grand Lodge Basement was considered and request to dispose of the many extra copies was presented to Grand Master Fisher for permission. Permission to dispose of the extra copies was granted with the condition one extra copy be retained on the shelf in the basement and one copy placed in the fireproof vault. The disposition of the extra copies commenced in July and was completed in February 1996 as directed. The shelves are clean and ready for future storage. Only three new books were placed in the library during the year, and these have been nimibered and indexed for reference. I thank Grand Master Fisher for appointing me Library Chairman, and have enjoyed assisting in the Library Maintenance. Respectfully submitted, Charles S. Baldry, Chairman REPORT OF THE TAXATION COMMFTTEE To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: We are pleased to report that shortly after Grand Lodge last year, a refiind was received from the Coimty of Shawnee in settlement of our suit. This amounted to $3,129.72. Logically, it followed that this Committee's duties had been performed. Accordingly our Grand Master thanked us for our effort in behalf of the Grand Lodge and we were discharged. However, the tax statement received this past December (1995) on the Land and Building which we commonly refer to as the Grand Lodge property, was calculated at the old Market Value of $394,100. Our Grand Master quickly summoned us back to duty. We did then on Tuesday, January 23,1996, meet vrith the Shawnee County Appraiser. A recording error was acknowledged by them and the Market Value of $322,705 was reentered. The savings at today's mill levy amounts to $ 1,456.24. Remember this has reference only to Shawnee County. Also we are reviewing the Personal Property Tax with the hope of finding additional savings. All Lodges are urged to do likewise and keep a constant surveillance of their local Coimty tax records.

We are pleased once again to be of help to our Grand Lodge and the Masons of Kansas. Our special appreciation must go to Brother Jack A. Quinlan, Attorney, counselor and mentor for his vary valuable work in our behalf. Respectfully and fraternally submitted, Albert O. Arnold Jr, GSE Chairman Taxation Committee REPORT OF THE MASONIC ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of Kansas: The Rock Springs Retreat continues to be the only assignment that this Committee has on a yearly basis. In 1995 the Masonic Retreat was well attended, and those there had a wonderfiil time. The staff of the Rock Springs h. Ranch continue to deliver almost unbelievable value for the dollars spent. For less that $100.00 per adult we offer 7 big meals, 2 nights and 3 days lodging, and all the amenities of the facility. A major supporter of the retreat has been the Grand Chapter of the Eastem Star. The last few Worthy Grand Matrons have made the Retreat a requirement for their Grand Family to attend. They have a short meeting, work on projects, have a great time, and this Committee thanks them for their support. A major concern of this Committee is the lack of equivalent support from the Grand Lodge. Rock Springs is, after all, a Grand Lodge Activity, but in the past few years very few Grand Officers have attended. Those who have, come back year after year. We suggest that consideration be given to renaming the Masonic Activities Committee, calling it the Rock Springs Masonic Retreat Committee. In recent years Grand Masters have appointed Special Committees for special events such as the Royals Night, and the Spring Dance in Salina. While in theory these supposed subcommittees are part of Activities, in practice they neither report to the Chairman, nor inform the Committee of their endeavors, and this is just fine. A group that is focused on one event will do a better job, and there is no need for the fiction of oversight by Activities. There is plenty of talent in this Grand Jurisdiction to staff as many such committees as the Grand Master desires, and those who do the work deserve recognition. Fratemally Submitted, Mike S. Haxton, Chairman Masonic Activities Committee COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC INFORMATION The importance of working with the media in establishing a good working rapport will insure continued success in our fostering a brighter public image. Through the efforts of this office, we have been able to open doors to the media which were not readily available and through these doors the image of the Grand Masonic Order and the mission to be accomplished once again becomes an important forerunner in the public eye. Arranged meetings with the radio media and newspaper were well received. In addition, our Grand Master made personal appearances, accompanied by brethren, to the Governor's office for the signing of the proclamation. Personal appearances were made on radio stations to inform the geneial public of oiu^ goals and mission. In conclusion, the Grand Masonic Order was well received by the urban/rural brothers and friends and an enthusiastic effort to provide support to the needs of the community was established. Fratemally submitted. Dr. Gilbert A. Farmer REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON REPORTS OF GRAND OFFICERS To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas. In accordance with By-Law 2-117 of the Constitution and By-Laws of the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas, the Committee on Reports of Grand Officers makes the following report to the craft:
Proceedings of the
March
It has been the privilege and pleasure of this committee to have served the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of Kansas and its Grand Master. M.-W.-. Morris L. Fisher, together with his dedicated corps of elected and appointed officers. TTie committee recommends that all committee reports be accepted in their entirety and be printed in the Armual Proceedings. The committee further recommends that this committee be abolished. It is the opinion of the committee that we perform no usefiil function, nor is it in our power to change anything in the reports it receives. It creates needless burden on the staff in the Grand Lodge Office and is an expense that is not justified. We thank our Grand Master for appointing us to this committee. We consider it an honor to have served him and the Grand Lodge of Kansas in this capacity. Respectfully and Fraternally submitted, Lawrence D. Winegardner, PGM Chairman
Lawrence E. Bodine Dwight A. Burton

James Fremonti from Pittsburg #187 announced that Pittsburg Lodge was very proud that Carveth Neer is going to be installed as Grand Master. He instructed the Grand Marshall to retire and present the installing Grand Officers. Forrest Haggard thanked Mr. Fremonti for his welcome. He also expressed his appreciation and allowed Brother Fremonti to sit with his brethren. M.-.W.-. Haggard then instructed the Grand Marshall to retire and present the officers to be installed. M.-.W.-. Forrest Haggard reminded R.-.W.-. Carveth Neer that the powers he is about to receive reside in the office, not in the man. However, he also stated that the dignity he is gaining will not leave him unless it is destroyed by his own hand. M.-.W.-. Grand Chaplain offered prayer. Brother Haggard explained the empty chairs were caused by inability to be present. He informed the brethren that neither he nor Carveth was going to fill the chairs with someone else. The installing Grand Master M.-.W.-. Forrest Haggard, charged the Grand Master elect, Carveth K. Neer, with the duties and pledge of service. M . W.. Carveth K. Neer, Pittsburg #187 7 1 9 E 10th Pittsburg K S 66762 (316) 231-1007 The Elected and Appointed Officers were charged with their duties and duly installed. The installing team presented the newly installed Grand Master with a gavel made of space age material. Following the Installation and Commissioning of the Area and District Deputies, the Grand Lecturers and Committee members, the Installing Officers proclaimed the 1996-1997 slate duly installed.

GRAND MASTER'S ACCEPTANCE SPEECH Brothers, Sisters, and Guests: We welcome you to the 141st Installation of the Officers of the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of Kansas. And if you will give me your attention for the next few minutes, I will give you mine for the next year. First I want to thank my Installing Officers for doing such a beautiful job of Installation this morning. And a special Thank you to M.-.W.-. Forrest Haggard, when I asked him to install me he didn't hesitateâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;he took that responsibility and you see the job that he did. And M.-.W.-. Forrest I will always be grateful for this moment."Also a big Thank you to the Knights Templar who have the honor guard for me. I serve under some, with some, and I've been with them all since I don't know when. Way back. And I deeply appreciate it. I love all you guys and Templary too. I want to thank Sir Knight Dave for assembling those people, I just asked him to do it and forgot it and they were here. Brother Foley could not be here to play the organ today nor could Bob Cleff because my musician passed away a month ago and Tom Kleist's lady who is Grand Organist of the Eastern Star filled in for me and I am certainly thankful for her. Let's give her a big hand. To my family for being here today and for the support you have given me in all my Masonic endeavors. What a blessing they've been to me and are to me now. I can never thank my wife Joan for all the things she has done and all the miles she has traveled and that started in 1977. She never complained about it only some of the things that I've done. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. By now everybody has probably guessed that I was in the Air Force because of my pin that has the wings and the blue blazers that my officers will wear this year. I served five years in the Air Force serving most of that time as a flight engineer flying in Texas, Korea, Japan, and the Far East and Washington DC. That is the reason' for the wings as my Grand Master's pin. So come fly with me'my brother let us soar through the pinnacle of Masonry again. That is to again be the largest and most caring Fraternity in the world. To reach this lofty goal, it will take an enormousamount of work, cooperation and enthusiasm. I am willing to do this. Are you my brothers? From the youngest and newest Entered Apprentice to the Past Grand Masters and with everyone working and pulling together, we can reach this goal. So come fly with me and make Masonry what it used to be. Let me paraphrase the late John F. Kennedy and ask not what Masonry can do for you, ask what you can do for Masonry. Let us work together for Masonry and not against it. We are in one of the most exciting eras of Masonry that I can imagine. I know most of you can remember in 1950's when Masonry was at it's peak in membership and in high esteem in the community. Since then we have witnessed a steady decline in our membership and also a decline in the esteem we once held in every community. We.are on the threshold of a new begirming of Masonry in Kansas, and it was evident at this Grand Lodge session. The changes that are taking place are no accident. Masonry is changing because there is a need for change. It is changing because of brothers who are not afraid to make the change. And to make the necessary changes and because of hard work, enthusiasm, and cooperation. So come and fly with me this year. We must get our lodges family oriented. Let's involve our families in Masonry. The cloak and dagger days of Masonry are gone. There's nothing that is secret except those things that are known between us as brothers. Let us make ourselves visible in the community. We need Masonic unity in our communities so we can get back the respect and prominence we once held. Membership is still our number one priority. And we are making great strides but we still have a long way to go. I would like to see an increase of just one member next year. Now think about that. One member. That would eliminate about 2,000 to deaths, dimits, suspension or whatever if we can just get that one man in the black. In Masonry as well as anything else, you have to tell them if you're going to sell them. And if you're going to sell them, be sure you know what you are talking about. A lot of us don't, let's get that Masonic Education so we can talk to these brothers. I will still continue to support the one-day class or conferrals but I will not issue a blanket dispensation for these classes. I will request a dispensation 30 days before the class is to be held. This will allow time for the Lodges to receive petitions, investigate them, vote on them and to obtain the best ritualist available to perform that ritual work. We want to give our new members the very best. I am not going to introduce any new programs this year. Only improve on the ones we do have. And we have some of the best programs working now. Such as Masonic Unity in the Community, Family Involvement, Masonic Education, Membership and the Mile of Food programs. As your Grand Master I cannot fulfill every request that is made to attend your programs. And I hope that when I cannot be there that you will receive one of these Grand Lodge Officers with the same respect that you would give me if I cannot be there. 1996 is going to be one exciting year for Kansas Masonry and for me as your Grand Master.

Proceedings of the
March
The Masonic Home will hold it's 100 year anniversary and a full year has already been planned. And in September we will rededicate the Home and we would invite everybody to be there and you'll see more of that in the KS Mason and the Masonic Home paper. The Masonic Home administration will also host in Jime the National Masonic Home Administrators Association. The Central State Shrine will have their session in Overland Park Kansas. And the President of the Central States this year, who could not be here today, is a recorder from my own Temple-Mirza Temple-and we're certainly looking forward to that. The South Central Department Conference. This is seven states. It will be held here in Wichita and there will be a lot of great speakers there. So we're looking forward to that. There is one more day that 1 would like to remind you of and that is April 20. I would invite you to my reception in the little balkins down in Pittsburg. We plan to have buses to travel from the motels to the Temple and to the Lodge because of parking. So I'm getting that worked out and it'll be a big relief for those that do not want to drive. I might add that at oiu lodge we have an elevator. At Mirza Temple we also have an elevator. So anybody can go up and down, they don't have to walk. I would ask for your support and encouragement as we go into the new Masonic year. And as M.-. W.-. Brother Fisher promised and completed his year, his budget in the black, I too will do the same with your help and support. In closing I would like to tell you about a Brother who is a Mason and he was dedicated at that time. He suspended from his lodge and never returned but in his heart he was always a Mason. One day about six years ago he had to go to New York City to have a tumor removed from the base of his brain. The operation was a success but several years later it came back and it had to be done again and for the second time it was a success. But we did not expect the stroke that followed a few days later. Almost to the day, four years later, he passed away. He could not speak, he could not write, he could not walk, but he could understand everything that was said to him and that went on aroimd him. And every time I visited him he would go like this (sign) and that told us he was well. He always did this. He was determined to overcome these difficulties, but he never did. But he never quit trying. He had the determination and faith that he would but he never quit trying to overcome these difficulties. And so as I begin this year, I am going to face each day as my younger brother did. With determination, with faith, and the desire always to do better. And I would like to dedicate this year to my brother Roger. God Bless Him. He has been an inspiration to me. So come fly with me my brothers, let's make this one of the most great and beautiful years in Masonic history. Thank you. He then introduced Worthy Grand Matron Sara Hef^ and her officers. He then introduced his officers, and asked them to introduce their families and whomever they wanted to. M.-.W.-. Carveth K. Neer infroduced his family and his wife Joan was serenaded. First Lady Joan explained that her gift for Carveth was ordered two years ago and was not there. He will have to wait until his reception. She then presented him the Past Grand Master's ring and Grand Master's lapel pin. The Grand Master received an engraved bible case and bible from Grandson Jeff and Granddaughters Jessica and Katie. Randy Vogts, Potentate of Mirza Temple, Johnny Gilham, Chief Caban, and Bud Barnes came forward to present the Grand Master with the Grand Master's fez. M.-.W.-. Dean Osbom presented personal gifts from his wife Pat and himself to be opened at M.-.W.-. Neer's convenience, and a Hombtu-g hat on behalf of Owen E. Hodgson, PGM 1966. The installing Officers presented the Grand Master with a Golf Club. M..W.. GRAND LODGE OF AF&AM OF KANSAS LIST OF OFFICERS 1996-1997 GRAND MASTER

VISION (What we want to become by the year 2000) FreeMasonry is universally recognized as the preeminent organization that exemplifies leadership, charity, fellowship, and positive family values within the community, the state, the country, and the world at large. MISSION (The reason we exist) The mission of Kansas Masonry is to provide for its members opportunities for personal growth through fellowship, education, service, and leadership experience, and increased selfesteem through recognition and the opportunity to give something back to their community. The mission outside of the Fraternity is to fulfill charitable needs, display positive family values and offer leadership to the community. By fiilfilling this mission, the fraternity will grow and prosper as good men seek to join and remain associated with men of high principle and character, as taught by FreeMasonry.

GRAND MASTER'S ADDRESS To the Officers and Members of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of the state of Kansas and Distinguished Guests from other Jurisdictions: My Brethren: It is with a great deal of pleasure that I welcome all of you to the 141st Annual Communication of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of the State of Kansas. To our Distinguished visitors from out of the state we extend to you our traditional Jayhawk hospitality and Fraternal Welcome. We look forward to hearing from most of you during this session. We certainly appreciate you taking time from your busy schedules to be here with us. To all Brothers who are here for the first time, Special Welcome. It is my sincere prayer that you along with the rest of us, leave this Grand Lodge session with a feeling of Masonic fiilfillment and a motivated desire to work hard at promoting our Fraternity to all the communities throughout Kansas and the world. The past four years have passed at what seems like four times its regular pace and what 1 have learned in Masonry and the friends I have made during these past four years will be something I will cherish forever. I thank you for electing me as your Grand Master. 1 committed to you to do my best and 1 have so tried. We entered this with the intent of establishing a Grand Lodge Endowment and to increase our membership. I'm very pleased to tell you the Endowment fund is established. Our losses in membership has been kept to a minimum. Brothers, take advantage of the Endowment fund program, use your resources to the fullest extent, and your Grand Lodge will benefit and prosper from your devotion of Masonry. At the beginning of my term as Grand Master, 1 promised you that I would stay within my budget as set by the Finance committee and the Council of Administration. It is with great pride that I tell you we not only finished the year in the black but with a surplus. The one day classes are still proving to be a tool for increasing our Membership. It is not the complete answer but it is helping. Brothers, I believe that if we do not change to keep in pace with our fast moving worid, we will be held in limbo as the world passes us by. Thank you again for allowing me to serve you. Relax, enjoy, and let us work together during this session in Peace and Harmony. TO MY WIFE JOAN How can I ever Thank You for all the support you have given to me in my Masonic endeavors since 1953. When proceeding through the Grand Commandery line 1977-1986 you only missed one visitation. When I was appointed Grand Senior Deacon until this date you traveled with me. She has enough energy for both of us and as most of you know, she is always there with me wherever I go. She has been a great asset to me, to Kansas Grand Lodge and to Masonry. It will be very difficult for me to repay her for all her efforts, maybe I can start by doing all the things aroimd the house that I have left undone these past four years. I owe her a great deal and will always be in her debt.

I love you, Joan, with all my heart. Thank you! GRAND LODGE STAFF Grand Masters have enough to worry about without being involved with the every day administration of the Grand Lodge Office. I have not had to worry about those duties. My deepest appreciation goes to Jean Rader, Office Manager, Tanya Artzer, and Jennifer Bolze, for all the Clerical work. To Charles Hoffmeister, our Custodian, Bud Horton, our Printer, and Charles S. Baldry, our Librarian, many thanks for ajob well done. They have always been able to answer my questions and do all the many things requested of them. Be sure my Brethren they have you and the Grand Lodge of Kansas's best interest in their hearts at all limes. APPOINTED OFFICERS Every Grand Master claims he has the best appointed officers in Kansas Grand Lodge history. I'm certainly no different. This has been a busy year for you and mere words cannot express my appreciation and thanks for all the miles you have traveled and the time you devoted to our fraternity. The craft should be proud for your accomplishments on their behalf We are truly blessed to have such Masons in our fraternity. Let it not go unnoticed that your wives traveled with you whenever possible and Joan and 1 certainly appreciated their sacrifices to be with you. They made a pleasing and refreshing addition to all the meetings. Thank you again my Brethren. AREA AND DISTRICT DEPUTY GRAND MASTERS Every Grand Master is faced with selecting his "eyes and ears" who will be his sounding board and confidant when it comes to dealing with the constituent lodges in his area. I have an excellent corps of such Deputies and I couldn't have picked any better. My brethren I thank you for the symbolic lodges of Kansas. You have done a superb job and the Craft should be appreciative of your efforts.
GRAND LODGE COMMITTEES One of the hardest jobs as Deputy Grand Master, is selecting your committee men to serve while you are Grand Master. I have not been disappointed in these Brethren this year. Some of you had to work extremely hard while others were fortunate not to have problems or matters relative to their particular committee. A special thanks to Glenn German, Editor of the Kansas Mason. The Credentials committee under the direction of Brother Don Doll, again an outstanding job. All of the committees did a great job. To each committee member, God Bless you and thank you for your dedication to the Masonic Fraternity. PAST GRAND MASTERS My appreciation and esteem for our Past Grand Masters cannot be measured. While progressing from Senior Deacon to Grand Master, I have an even greater appreciation for your leadership and dedication to our Fraternity. I felt very humble when I presented 50 Year pins to M-.W.-. William Bradford and M.-. W.-. Forrest Haggard. It is an honor to present 50 Year pins to any of the Craft but a double honor to a PGM. Thank you to M.-. W.-. S. Allan Daugherty for asking me to present him his sixty year pin at Grand Lodge. I have gleaned much knowledge and advice from each and every one of you. You are all very special to me. It has been an honor to represent you and now in a few short hours to become a part of your Past Grand Master's Association. SCOTTISH RITE Through my experiences in the Grand Lodge, I have been able to work closely with many of our appendant and affiliated bodies of Masonry. The Scottish Rite is one of those groups, and from such association I have a better understanding of their purposes and their leaders. Most Worshipful Brother and Illustrious Thomas C. Raum, Jr. our Sovereign Grand Inspector General, is a most devoted man to Freemasonry in the state. Naturally Brother Raum, has the Scottish Rite in his best interest, but he is genuinely interested in Masonry as a whole and has demonstrated this by committing his Scottish Rite leaders and resources to help in any way possible. I take this opportunity to express my appreciation and thanks for all the

courtesies and hospitality shown to the office of Grand Master this year and on behalf of our Grand Lodge, thank you for allowing us to use your facilities from time to time. You have my pledge to support Scottish Rite Masonry in the future. YORK RITE FREEMASONRY Joan and I had the pleasure of attending the Grand York Rite assembly in May at Salina, KS, where 1 broughl greetings to them from the Grand Lodge of KS. My thanks to R.-.E.-. Max Briggs (Deceased), Grand Commander, M.-.E.-. Clarence Johnson, Grand High Priest, Grand Chapter of Royal Arch Masons, and Illustrious Jay Sheldon, III Grand Master of Cryptic Masons in Kansas for their courtesies and hospitality. As past Grand Commander and soon to be past Grand Master, I pledge to you my support. To all the Sir Knights who helped at the Grand Lodge Dedication I would like to express my sincere thanks. What is more beautiful and impressive than those uniforms and chapeaus. Thank you again for helping me to have such a great year. Special Dispensations are located in the Advance Reports and I will certainly not read them. Lodge Consolidations are also located in the Advance Reports. There were only seven consolidations this year. That is simply wonderful because we had been running at a tremendous pace of consolidations. CONFERENCE OF GRAND MASTERS This year's conference of Grand Masters was held February 15-17 in Tulsa Oklahoma at the Adams Mark Hotel. This was as usual an informative conference. Joan and me, the Council of Adminisralion, Grand Senior Deacon Stanley Browning, and Past Grand Master Thomas C. Raum, Sovereign Grand Inspector General of Kansas, and their ladies all attended the conference. There were numerous conference topics presented by Grand Masters. I had the privilege of speaking on our one day classes in Kansas. It was warmly received and many Grand Masters asked for further information. Oklahoma did the conference proud. Many Thanks to them for their efforts and hospitality. INSTALLATION I cannot begin to thank all of you that attended and all those who presented various gifts. It truly met all my expectations. Additionally, the installing team was magnificent with M.-.W.-. Forrest Haggard as installing officer. Thanks to everyone who was involved. Appointments to fill vacancies W.-. Brother John Gillum was appointed to the Finance committee to replace W.-. Brother Jim Ross who resigned. This is an occasion all Grand Masters remember and I assure you that I will always remember and treasure mine. I thank all of you. RULINGS On several occasions I found it necessary to declare vacancies among the principle officers of our Symbolic Lodges. The offices were filled and the Brothers properly installed. SPECIAL DISPENSATIONS As is normal each year, it was necessary to use the Grand Master's powers and permit, by "special dispensation", a number of deviations from our By-Laws. In each case, the determining factor was, and should always be, for the good of, and for the advancement of Freemasonry. They can be found in detail in the Advance Reports. COUNCIL OF ADMINISTRATION The Council of Administration met numerous times throughout the year to deal with the many problems that arise concerning Masonry in our great state. Each decision was made with the good of Masonry and more especially, the Kansas jurisdiction in mind. I am very pleased with the support and input of R.-.W.-. JeiTSowder, R.-.W.-. T. Michael Fegan and R.-.W.-. John Mowen in the making of the several decisions that we were confronted with. PITTSBURG LODGE #187 To all my Brethren of Pittsburg Lodge #187,1 wish to express my heartfelt thanks for my initiation, and for the impression of Masonry that the Brothers made at the opportimity of serving as your Master in 1986. I owe a great deal to the York Rite of Pittsburg. Without the opportunities I received there I could not have been Grand Master

or Grand Commander of Knights Templer. I thank you for your love and support and I hope that I have represented you well in my years of service. DISTINGUISHED SERVICE AWARD My selection for the "Distinguished Service Award" this year was W.-. Brother Merlin Grundy from Old Mission Lodge. Space would not allow the listing of all of this Brother's accomplishments. If there is anything that needs to be done. Brother Merlin will find a way to do it. I am indeed proud to call him my friend and Brother. HIGHLIGHTS We had the privilege of opening Grand Lodge on several different occasions this year for Dedication or Rededication requests. The most recent was the Dedication of the ground breaking of the assisted living facility at the Masonic Home. In each case, our Grand Lodge Officers performed well with the Dedication Ceremonies. They made Masonry in Kansas proud. The Grand Master's "All the Way in One Day" class was a great success. In all cases the feedback was positive. It was my pleasure and honor to have been chosen to present a paper at the Grand Masters Conference in Tulsa. I was very proud to have been able to take the Council of Administration and their ladies with Joan and me. RECOMMENDATIONS I have recommended to the Council of Administration to continue fund raisers for the Grand Lodge Endowment fund and to the Crafl to support it. That in future years try to reduce the travel of the Grand Master by having District meeungs to make one trip to a district instead of four or five or more. That the Deputy Grand Master, Grand Senior Warden, and Grand Junior Warden be assigned to visits in place of the Grand Master. To improve Masonic Education in all our Lodges.
STATE OF THE CRAFT As I leave office, I find the stale of the Craft in good condition and improving. There has been only seven consolidations this year, and more lodges are trying harder to keep their identity. I have found more young masons looking to learn more of Masonry and holding "A" "B" and "M" proficientcy cards. And they are striving and serving as lodge officers in their own constituent Lodges. This is most promising and rewarding to see. The financial condition of our Grand Lodge is improving every day. I cannot thank you brothers enough for the per capita tax increase last year. It has been truly a god-send for our Grand Lodge. The Council of Adminstration has pledged to stay within the budget and have the last two years and I'm sure they will the next three years. And it will be your responsibility to hold their feet to the fire if they don't. Membership is on the upswing, but the deaths is surely dragging us down. And I commend you all on your efforts on the membership. As Grand Master I can see the State of the Craft in Kansas in upbeat conditions. We are the movers and shakers of Masonry throughout the Masons. To this I give all the credit to you, my brethren, when 1 took office I said "Come fly with me and make Masonry what it used to be." You did and I am very pleased and proud to be part of you. CONCLUSION In conclusion, I will say this year has been my greatest honor to have served Kansas Masonry and as your Grand Master and more especially the Brethren of our Kansas Jurisdiction. My goals were to start a Grand Lodge Endowment Fund and finish my year with the budget in the black. It is my belief and hope we have accomplished these goals. Thanks to you, my Brethren, each and everyone, for allowing me to serve you and Kansas Masonry, Also for all the support you gave to me this year. May the Grand Architect of the Universe continue to Bless us and Direct us. I would be very remiss if I did not recognize M.-.W.-. Richard Overton who appointed me Grand Senior Deacon. I hope I have made him proud of his choice. M.-.W.-. Overton, in my eyes, is the smartest Mason in Kansas. He appointed me. Many thanks, Dick. I will be forever in your debt. Fraternally Submitted,

Carveth K. Neer Grand Master The following was not heard on the floor, but was included in the printed Grand Master's address: SHRINE First of all, 1 would like to thank the nobles of Mirza Temple, the Junior Past Potentate for the beautiful fez presented to me at my installation. Secondly to Midian Temple and Isis Temple for all the courtesies shown Joan and me this year. I'm sorry I was unable to attend any functions at Arab Temple or Abdallah Temple. Joan and I want to thank Mirza Temple for the invitation to attend the Imperial Shrine sessions June 30 to July 4, 1996 in New Orleans. We had a wonderful time, and 1 learned a lot more about the largest philanthropy in the world. There is no doubt that Kansas has the best group of Shrine Masons in the world and there is peace and harmony and Masonic unity among all of us. I thank you most of all, for that. Yours in the faith. AMARANTH Due to previous commitments I was able to attend only the Thursday night opening. I brought greetings from the Grand Lodge as Grand Master and as a Past Grand Royal Patron.

I did send W.-. Brother Charles McClain, Grand Marshal, to represent me, bring greetings and present them with a monetary gift from Grand Lodge. It was a pleasure for Joan and I to attend the DeMolay conclave held in Newton. I brought greetings and presented them with a check to help them with their expenses.

GRAND REPRESENTATIVES Each year, the Grand Master has the honor of accepting selected Brethren to serve as Grand Lodge Representatives to Kansas near other Jurisdictions. This year I was privileged to accept the following Brethren: H. E. Sullivan - Grand Representative to Kansas near the Grand Lodge of Mississippi G. H. Riddell - Grand Representative to Kansas near the Grand Lodge of Delaware J. Garfield - Grand Representative to Kansas near the Grand Lodge of New York NECROLOGY Brethren, the Supreme Architect of the Universe has spared our Grand Lodge line. We give thanks for this. Grand Lodge was opened to perform funeral rites for our deceased Brother M.-. W.-. Robert Arnold who passed away July 5, 1996 with interment at Alma City Cemetery in Alma Kansas. The Necrology committee will pay tribute to our deceased Brethren later today. These Brethren will be sorely missed by all of who knew them and our consolation is that they have all reached that celestial lodge above where the Grand Architect presides. I can only imagine what a wonderful Lodge session they are having. Our prayers remain with the families and we have offered them our continued support and availability. The Grand Master called for the Grand Treasurer's Report. Report of the Grand Treasurer To: The M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: Our Grand Master and Council of Administration have continued to run a tight ship with Grand Lodge Finances. Their expenditures this year are well under their budget. I am happy to report your Grand Lodge started the year with a fund balance of $616,312.00 and ended the year with a fund balance of $689,64 LOO. This is a difference of $73,329.00. The cost of running the Grand Lodge Office this year is by far the biggest reason our operating expense is down this year. Our total investments are down this year about $ 11,000.00 due to a decline in the market value in some bonds, but our investments are liquid with $198,880.00 still invested in various securities. The detailed report of the Grand Treasurer begins on page 61 of the Advanced Proceedings. Respectfully submitted, F. Warren Stams Grand Treasurer

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT Most Worshipful, Carveth K. Neer, Grand Master, Jim E. Ross, Chairman of the Grand Lodge Finance Committee and The Council of Administration for the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas Topeka, Kansas I have audited the statement of assets, liabilities and fund balances of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas as of December 31, 1996, and the related statements of revenues and expenses and changes in fund balances, and cash flow for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Grand Lodge Finance Committee and Council of Administration. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit. I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion. My audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying schedules are presented as supplementary information and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied to the basic financial statements and, in my opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge A.F. i A.M. of Kansas at December 31, 1996, and the results of its operations and its cash flow for the year ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT Most Worshipful, Carveth K. Neer, Grand Master, Perpetual Life Membership Plan Fund, Inc. Topeka, Kansas Dear Sir: I have audited the statement of assets and fund balance of the Perpetual Life Membership Plan Fund, Inc., Topeka, Kansas as of December 31, 1996 and the related statement of revenues, expenses and changes in fund balance, and cash flow for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Perpetual Life Membership Plan Fund, Inc. and its Board of Directors. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on by audit. I have conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion. In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Perpetual Life Membership Plan Fund, Inc. at December 31, 1996, and the results of its operation for the year ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Report of the Grand Secretary To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: The old saying that time flies is really true as another year has passed. This is especially true when you are busy and doing what you like to do. For myself and the whole staff we are very busy and doing what we like to do. We still have the same staff as we did one year ago with only one change in title. Jean Rader has been moved from Interim Office Manager to Office Manager and is still doing the outstanding job she has done for many years. Tanya and Jennifer still show the advantage of youth by having the energy and willingness to do all the jobs they are assigned and then whatever else is necessary to make things go in the office. Brother Charles Hoffmeister still picks up after all of us and keeps the whole building looking great. He is also the handyman's handyman for helping anyone who needs an extra hand. A willing worker and much appreciated. Bud Horton still does most of our printing in-house saving us dollars and keeping him busy in his retirement. Last year we printed new law books in loose leaf form and this year we printed new revisions so they can be kept up to date each year. The Grand Master and I have signed over 1,500 fifty year certificates along with several sixty and seventy year certificates. The crown jewel is there were six seventy-five year certificates. While this is great is also tells us we have a large number of senior citizens and need more young men in this great fraternity. As of the printing of this report we have 1,586 new members for the year and a loss of 2,741 members for a net loss of 1,155. We have a total membership of 42,260. Fratemally submitted, Don E. Robinett, PGM Grand Secretary

It was moved and seconded that the rest of the printed reports be accepted as printed. Motion carried. Whereas: At the 1996 annual communication of this Grand Lodge it was moved, seconded and carried by an overwhelming margin that the Grand Lodge per capita tax be raised from $10.00 to $15.00. That there be a $1.00 special assesment placed on each member, payable with the 1996 annual lodge report in January 1997. Whereas: It was explained in detail that because of the need of this revenue to operate Grand Lodge. The five dollars was to be collected with the 1997 lodge dues and paid to Grand Lodge with the 1997 aimual report in January 1998. Whereas: This information has been published in the Kansas Mason two times and letters have been sent to all lodges and the money has all been collected with the 1997 dues. Therefore: I move that the actions of the Grand Lodge in 1996 on this matter be ratified and confirmed and that the effective date be January 1, 1997. Don E. Robinett, PGM Grand Secretary

Note: We thought it especially fitting for the Grand Lodge of Israel to organize and structure a meeting of those who were Grand Representatives to Israel from foreign Grand Jurisdictions to a special Masonic Meeting 12/29/96I/I/97 celebrating the 3000th Anniversary of Jerusalem. It included the consecration of a new Lodge in the Quarries of King Solomon (Hezkiah's Cave) under the Old City. CONCERNING RECOGNITION: COLUMBIA: Grand Lodge of the Andes requesting recognition 2/15/96 This Grand Lodge is not included in the latest MSA listing nor has it been noted in the last report of the commission on information. Request on hold. GERMANY: A report that Januguns Lodge No. 1010 in Riga Latvia is now under their Grand Jurisdiction and is regular. UPPER INDIA: Request for Recognition: Denied: This is schismatic and violates the standards of the Commission on Information. IRELAND: A report that the Grand Lodge of Ireland requested other Grand Lodges not to recognize the Grand Orient of Italy. Kansas has stayed clear of this political plot and we still recognize the Grand Orient of Italy. We agree with the Commission on Information that the Grand Lodge of England acted too hastily in dropping recognition of the Grand Orient of Italy. M A L G A C H E : Madagascar: Request for Recognition. On hold as the Commission on Information has not (1996) studied this matter. MEXICO: The York Grand Lodge has severed all connections with the Grand Lodge Valle de Mexico. SPAIN: Re The Canary Islands: seven lodges withdrew from the Grand Lodge of Spain and are attempting to form their own new Grand Lodge. CANARY ISLANDS: Request for Recognition: On Hold No information.

YUGOSLAVIA: A bitter internal dispute has erupted in Yugoslavia. The Committee on Information has agreed that, 1996, the only recognized Grand Lodge is the REGULAR Grand Lodge of Yugoslavia. PRINCE HALL: A major item in Masonic Circles is recognition of Prince Hall. There is no doubt about the acknowledgment of the Regularity of Prince Hall. All Prince Hall Grand Jurisdictions are Regular. That fact is now understood by Grand Jurisdictions around the world. Any denial of the regularity of Prince Hall is now understood to be racially motivated. It but remains to work out the details of how we go about recognizing that fact within our Grand Jurisdictions. In Kansas we are working with Kansas Prince Hall on the details of just how we will mutually recognize each other. We are fortunate that many other Sister Grand Jurisdictions, some that border us, already have excellent understandings. The following information is given to Grand Lodge to be printed in the Proceedings so that all Kansas Masons may better understand the situation. We have listed, in previous reports, those Grand Jurisdictions who now recognize Prince Hall and they are too numerous to list again but we will note some of the 1996 decisions regarding Prince Hall. AUSTRALIA: Queensland: "Those Prince Hall Lodge recognized within the USA should be able to inter-visit with Lodges within the jurisdiction of the United Grand Lodge of Queensland. I congratulate those brethren who are moving to cement ties with Prince Hall Grand Lodges in the US. - 1 trust the brethren from Prince Hall Grand Lodges who visit this area of Australia will take them opportunity of visiting Lodges in Queensland.' (April 1996) A MAJOR DECISION IN RECOGNITION. It says if you are a member of a Prince Hall Grand Lodge in any Grand Jurisdiction where you are recognized as Regular then you may visit in Queensland. ENGLAND: The United Grand Lodge now recognizes two Grand Lodges within the State of Connecticut: The Grand Lodge of Connecticut and the Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Connecticut. (September 1996) OREGON: Voted to restore fraternal recognition to Idaho. (Idaho had recognized a Prince Hall Lodge whose Grand Lodge was in Oregon and Oregon withdrew recognition but massive pressure from within and without let them reexamine what was basically a bad decision and change it.) (June 1996) HAWAII: Voted recognition of Prince Hall Freemasonry in their Grand Jurisdiction. The Prince Hall Lodges in Hawaii are chartered by the Price Hall Grand Lodge of California. (March 1996) NEW MEXICO: Recognition of M.-.W.-. Prince Hall Grand Lodge of F & AM of New Mexico. (March 1995) WEST VIRGINIA: In 1991 the West Virginia Grand Lodge voted to not allow its members to visit Lodges in Grand Lodges that recognized Prince Hall - they named Colorado, Minnesota, & North Dakota. In April of 1996 the Grand Master set aside that Edict and issued a new much softer edict allowing members to visit but cautioned them about having "Masonic Converse" with "unrecognized" persons. It was a move in the right direction in an area of our US where racial tensions run deep in history. SCOTTISH RITE: (1995) The Supreme Council NMJ and the Supreme Council NMJ Prince Hall Affiliation now recognize each other. Each retains its sovereignty and remains autonomous within its respective jurisdiction. It extends recognition only within those states in which the Grand Lodges extend recognition. SAMPLE DOCUMENTS of mutual recognition from Colorado and Connecticut follow: NOTICE OF MOTION By order of Brother Gail Nelson Smith, Most Worshipful Grand Master of Masons in Connecticut, the following Resolution will be presented for a vote at the Semi-Annual Communication of the Most Worshipfiil Grand Lodge AF & AM of Connecticut on October 14, 1989, at Wallingford, Connecticut: WHEREAS: The Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge, F & AM of Connecticut, Inc. Has existed in the State of Connecticut since 1873, and in America since 1775, and profess the same Masonic principles and ideals of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge, AF & AM of Connecticut, and; WHEREAS: Both Grand Lodges desire to remain autonomous within themselves, operating hereafter as heretofore, with their own Grand Master, Rules and Regulations.

Given under my hand and seal of The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge, AF & AM, of Colorado, this 26th day of October 1990, A L 5990. End of Sample Documents. In most instances this action followed some times of social gatherings and a blue ribbon committee of Past Grand Masters who brought forward the resolution in both Mainstream and Prince Hall Grand Lodges. This Committee feels it is time for this Grand Lodge to devote major effort and time, as have many of our sister adjoining Grand Jurisdictions, and move forward. Whereas we now have two legitimate Grand Lodges occupying the same territorial jurisdiction but who are not presently in fraternal accord with each other as good and true Masons should be. And whereas the Commission on Information of the Grand Master's Conference did in 1956 give approval for two Grand Lodges to occupy the same territory if they did so by mutual consent. And whereas our Grand Lodge has already recognized, by Grand Lodge vote, the regularity of Prince Hall and needs only to find mutual accord with Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Kansas we recommend that the Grand Master appoint a sub-committee to the Fraternal Relations Committee and charge them to enter into communication with the Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Kansas and to bring forward a resolution of mutual recognition between our two Grand Lodges. M.-.W.-. Grand Master I move the acceptance and adoption of this report. Forrest D. Haggard, PGM, Chairman Ben W. Boyles, PGM Kenneth Schwartz Operation "KAN" Touched by an angel, according to our Sacred Book, "We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak ~". We are not angels but we are God's Messengers and when we help those who are less fortunate, they will feel like they have been touched by an angel. Glenn L. Knapp Chairman Kansas Lodge of Research The Kansas Lodge of Research is alive and doing well. This past year members received packets of researched items. The K L R will underwrite the cost of bringing the Kansas Grand Lodge history up to date. The elective officers of the K L R voted to subscribe to the Internet, so members with computers may receive items of interest and pass it on to the Breathren. Division III of the K L R meets four times a year with a dinner and a practice Table Lodge. The parade float a 7 1/4' X 16' trailor, participated in five parades in Leavenworth County.

Several of your Brethren have accomplished a very rare task. They completed courses without error, obtaining perfect scores of 100. Congratulations to these members of the Craft for their excellence of performance. In addition to the local effort, several Grand Jurisdictions have requested information and copies of the five (5) KMU courses we offer as well as the eight short talk bulletins and several of our new booklets. They indicated the desire to supplement their own efforts and wish to place them within their respective Grand Libraries to provide the foundations for better eductional opportunities for their members. A special Thank You for W.-. John P. Wolf for his assistance in the preparation of the booklet "For the New Master Mason". We wish to thank M.-.W.-. Carveth K. Neer, Grand Master and the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge of Kansas for the opportunity to serve the Craft as members of this vital and important committee. Fraternally and Respectfully Submitted, Paul A. Lockwood, Chairman Rodney Richey
James E. Stone David F. Snyder Grand Lod^e Library
The Grand Lodge Library received 9 books during the year which have been indexed and placed on the shelf for future use. The library received a Masonic apron with the name of Lawrence Sutton on it, who belonged to Naloma Lodge No. 390 at Natoma, and dated June 1, 1924. The library received a second apron with the name of Leon King on it showing he was a member of Orient Lodge No. 51, with the date of June 30, 1920. These aprons have been placed on the shelf in the Library. A Past Master apron for Lewie Davis of Siloam Lodge was received and placed in the Siloam section of the library. A "Masters Carpet" found in the Lawson Hardware Store in Sylvan Grove was offered for sale to the Grand Lodge by Mr. and Mrs. Tracy Meyer for the sum of $275.00. The Grand Lodge has agreed to pay the sum when the Carpet is delivered. Thank you Most Worshipful for appointing me Chairman of the Library Committee, it has been most enjoyable. Respectfully submitted, Charles S. Baldry, Chairman Correspondence Committee TO THE M..W.-. GRAND LODGE OF AF & AM OF KANSAS; This committee has one member designated as Chairman and during the last year 1 have had two major surgeries five days apart and I suffer continuing disability and pain. There was awhile that I was in the hospital and obviously didn't go to the office then. There were several additional months when I was at home but not able to go to the office, then 1 went to the office on a part time basis and am now on a full time basis. Due to my illness and disability it's possible that 1 may have received some notices of deaths of sister jurisdictions and did not get a response to their Grand Lodge. If there have been such I am indeed sorry. I don't know that there have been such but by the same token there may have been and I am not aware of it, and if such has been the case then 1 apologize to our Grand Master and our Grand Lodge, as well as to the Grand Jurisdiction where the deceased Past Grand Master resided. 1 want to make several unscientific observations but 1 believe them to be true although 1 couldn't document it without reviewing a lot of files. These observations are as follows:
1996-1997
Grand Lodge of Kansas
59
A. It seems to me that death among Past Grand Masters of other jurisdictions have been unusually heavy. The heaviest of any during the years I have served. B.
The age of deceased Past Grand Masters has been higher that 1 have previously observed. It doesn't seem anything unusual at all that they would have been in the 80's or 90's at the time of death.
C.
In some instances, at least, Past Grand Masters have continued serving their Grand Lodge in various and sundry cases and some of them have been working assignments and not what a person could call honorary.
D. There are more notices from non English speaking nations that I had observed in prior years. I have responded in English. E.
I observe in many of the notices of death that the Grand Master orders the altar to be draped for 30 or, in a few instances, 60 days throughout the particular jurisdiction in honor of the deceased Past Grand Master.
In Conclusion: 1.
This is a working committee of one.
2.
It would be helpful to have your own typewriter and be able to use it or to have a secretary who can do it. You will have somewhere between 50 and 100 or more letters to be written that have not used any set format.
3.
I have been surprised at the ties of one sort or another that I have had in past years with the Grand Jurisdiction that I am writing to the Grand Secretary on the death of a Past Grand Master.
Respectfully submitted, Arthur C. Hodgson, PGM Chairman ADDENDUM TO REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON CORRESPONDENCE I forwarded the Report of the Committee on Correspondence to the Grand Secretary's office on the 31st day of December, 1996. This will be a very brief report covering a period of time from January 1st, 1997 through the 19th day of March, 1997. Death of Past Grand Master has continued on unabated and I haven't attempted to count the number in the approximately two and a half months since the first of this year, but I would estimate in at from twelve to fifteen. Service on this committee is a challenging one. It is challenging to know what to say to the Grand Lodge of a Past Grand Master in the death of a Past Grand Master. Each letter I have written has been individualized by any possible contact I may have had with that Grand Lodge during my Masonic career. If there were none, one needs to think of something else intelligent to say. I have not used any particular format, although I'm sure that it might appear sometimes that 1 was. Each one has been dictated by me and typed by my secretary of 38 years who is a devout Catholic. It would be going the second mile if a person could respond in the language that the notice of death was written in, but I assume that would have to be in the Grand Secretary's office, because in a town of 4,000 it would be very difficult to translate in anything but Spanish or possibly French or German, depending on what languages other than English were being taught in the High Schools of the County. To be invited to serve Masonry is certainly a great compliment and one that 1 have at very few times in my life said I could not fulfill. In my opinion, we are on this earth to be of service to others, to a cause or to a principle. I am thankful for the fine Masons that I have served under their year as Grand Master. None of us are given the opportunity to see what the future holds for us but when you are asked to do something accept willingly, because it is a high compliment to the indivual who is asked to serve.

Charles Singhisen B. Harold Bamett Church-Lodge Relations
The Church-Lodge Relations Committee is aware of those who would denigrate our Fraternity and has monitored their activities. We are also aware of another issue which is sometimes raised between churches and lodges, that being Masonic funerals. With regard to the first issue, we believe that education is the starting point of relieving the problem since it is largely based upon ignorance. Education must start with each of us as Masons since we cannot communicate that which we do not know. It is our hope that each Lodge will start and maintain a Masonic education program which will prepare Masons to be knowledgeable to explain the truth in a courteous way to those who are not knowledgeable. A good Masonic education program should also become apparent in our behavior which should communicate better that words what our gentle Craft is about.

Annual Proceedings of The
March
Regarding the second issue, that of Masonic ftinerals, there does occasionally arise a time when the church does not support a Masonic funeral. We believe that the family of the brother should be the deciding factor in such cases and that a courteous approach to the minister or church by the family and the Lodge will hopefully appease the matter. It is further hoped that the brother who does the funeral oration will present it from memory in a dignified, meaningful and personal way. We encourage each Mason, as an excellent starting point, to read M.-.W.. Brother Forrest Haggard's book. The Clergy and the Crafi. which will provide excellent background for both of the above issues. Respectfully submitted. Arris M. Johnson, PGM Harold Drennen Piiblicalions Grand Master and Brethren; There were six issues published of The Kansas Mason during 1996. All of them contained eight pages. The Kansas Mason was instituted by PGM Ben W. Graybill in 1961. I have been editor for the past two years. The past year has found more lodges willing to submit stories and hopefully made a better vehicle for information about the Craft. I thank Most Worshipful Neer for this singular honor. Fraternally, Glenn R. German, Editor THE KANSAS MASON Finance Committee To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: The members of the Finance Committee are glad to report that 1996 was a very good year for the Grand Lodge of Kansas. We had budgeted $502,600 for fiscal year 1996. (Jan. 1 to Dec. 31) At the end of December with final expenses reported, we had a Budget Surplus of $106,027.55. Credit for the surplus of funds should go to the Grand Master, members of the Council of Administration and the Finance Committee for their efforts. Our Grand Master made a very dedicated effort to control Grand Lodge expenses during 1996 and to keep them well within budget limits. During the year of 1996 the Finance Committee met quarterly with the Grand Master and Members of the Council of Adminstration to review the Grand Lodge Expenses to date. Also, to see how expenses compared with the projected budget figures to that point in the year. If during the year any line item of the budget had been spent, the Grand Master stopped any further spending for that line item where it was at all possible. Once again, we would like to request that on a volimtary basis, any Brother that would care to return his milage/per diem check to the Grand Lodge to help control budget expenses for 1997, that contribution will be greatly appreciated. The members of the Grand Lodge Finance Committee would like to thank Most Worshipful Neer for his assistance and cooperation and for the opportunity to serve the Grand Lodge of Kansas during 1996.

Patriotism To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: In 1996 the committee took part in ten Masonic activities, with an audience of more than 10,000 Masons and members of Masonic Appendant Bodies, their families and friends. We were proud to provide a Color Guard for the Grand Flag Bearer at the opening ceremonies of the Grand Lodge of Annual Communication on March 15. We were also proud of our continuing role of presenting the Colors at the opening ceremonies of the East-West Shrine Football Game on August 3. Our other activities included posting the Colors at Lodge, and Scottish Rite functions, as well as our "Building The Flag" and "Folding the Flag" programs. We have also obtained some video tapes on patriotic themes which have been well received. In addition to our Masonic activities, the committee presented programs at 21 non-Masonic functions. They were viewed by audiences totalling more than 2,500 persons. These programs were presented to schools, churches, fraternal, civic and youth groups. We are still gratified by the response we get from school and scouting groups, and feel the programs have a very positive influence on our young audiences, both from a patriotic and fraternal point of view. We are still told that we have introduced many in our audience to material they had never previously learned about the origins of our country and our flag. Again, we urge each Lodge to establish a Patriotism Committee and an ongoing patriotic program. The committee will assist in preparing such a program on request. Fraternally submitted, Donald S.

To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: The purpose of Total Youth and Public Schools Committee is outlined in section 2-124C of the By-Laws of the Grand Lodge of Kansas. This year we again held a state wide essay contest for juniors and seniors attending Kansas public schools. The essay topic for the 1996 year was "DISCIPLINE LIMITS OF PUBLIC SCHOOL EDUCATION". A fair amount of essays were submitted to Grand Lodge for final selection. The selection committee consisted of Brother Royal Brown, Brother E. Blaine Schoolcraft and Brother James B. Bratton. Winners were: 1 St Place - Mary Muntz 3rd Place - Kara Wallace
2nd Place - Andrea Spencer 4th Place - Doug Herbers
Honarable Mention: Ambre Gaulding Jill A. Himpel Kristin Monser
Jennifer Kerl Crystal Glover Theresa Holtorf
The Grand Lodge congratulates the wirmers. The tide for the 1997 Public School Essay contest will be "How Will Computers Affect Your Educadon By the Year 2000?". All Lodges are encouraged to contact their local high schools advising their Juniors and Seniors of this great opportunity to help fiirther their education presented by the State Masonic Public School Essay Contest. This is a very valuable public relations tool for the Masonic bodies to let the public know that the Masons do support their local commimitiesin a very positive way. The committee recommends the Grand Master send letters to each Lodge asking them to actively support this program. A Masonic youth dinner/dance was held at the ABDALLAH Shrine Temple in March. This function was for the benefit of all Masonic youth organizations through out the state of Kansas. It was attended by approximately 200 young men and women and was considered a great success in fact they all suggested this be an aimual affair. Illustrious Sir Dean Schur Potentate of ABDALLAH Temple felt so strongly towards the Masonic youth that he set aside enough monies to cover all the cost of the activity. We thank him very much for his generosity and thoughfulness. A big thank you to Jean Rader and her staff for the outstanding support they rendered this committee.

The combined efforts of the Masonic Lodges and the Eastern Star Chapters made the Christmas in July program a success. Due to the down sizing in the Veterans Hospitals and patient load so small there wasn't a program. The activity director from each of the three hospitals was presented a check in the amount of $1,462.63. The presentation was made at the Wichita, Veterens hospital by Past Grand Master William J. Brown on behalf of Grand Master Carveth Neer, and Sister Jessie Marie Brown representing the Worthy Grand Matron Nancy Evans and myself as Chairman of the committee. 1 would like to thank the Grand Master Carveth Neer and the Worthy Grand Matron Nancy Evans for allowing me the opportunity to serve on this committee, and most of all each Brother and Sister who helped make this become a reality. Respectfijlly submitted, James B. DeBerry, Chairman Masonic Aclivilies This year the Grand Lodge of Kansas had but one assignment for the activity committee and that was to get Masonry out in front of the public. This was done by continuing the yearly Mason's family night at the Kansas City Royals. This was the third year of this event and has always been a great success. The Grand Master, Most Worshipful Carveth K. Neer, this year as in past years, when other Grand Masters threw out the first ball, was the person on the pitchers mound to throw out the first ball. As in the past there has always been a special person to catch the first ball, and this year was no different, the catcher this year was Right Worshipful Leiand Salts, Grand Lecturer from Topeka. While all of this activity was going on, some good words about Masonry and how Kansas Masonry got started and what our charities are was being said over the public address system and shown on the large screens in th outfield. When the National Anthem was sang the Masonic color guard were on the field in full Masonic dress. Blue jackets and tan slacks with Grand Lodge apron and jewels. The Grand Lodge color guard were. Worshipful William E. "Bill" Mansfield, Grand Flag bearer from Keystone Lodge of Coffeyville, accompany him were. Worshipful Larry C. Reeder Grand Pursuivant from Pittsburg Lodge and Worshipful Paul J. Harrel Grand Sword Bearer from Union Lodge Juction City. This was a great night for Masonry and especially for Kansas Masons and their family and friends. To top the night off the Kansas City Royals won their first game out of the last six, by beating the Detroit Tigers 9 to 2. Fraternally Submitted, C.W. "Charlie" McClain, Chairman Necrolofry Committee We meet again to take time to pay tribute to 1,375 Brothers who have toiled long in the quarries of Freemasonry and have now been called to that "House not made of hands" by the Supreme Architect of the Universe. The line of Grand Officers was spared this year but we suffered the loss of the following Brothers, M.-.W.-. Robert H. Arnold, who served this Grand Lodge as Grand Master in 1975-1976. He has served Freemasonry for many years and will be missed by his Brethren, especially during installation of Grand Lodge officers. R..W.. James W. Gilmore, DDGM District 5. R.-.W.-. Leslie E.

Jack Brown David Shepard Perpetual Life Membership
The year of 1996 shows a very good gain in the Perpetual Life Membership Program. This was due in part to the increase in Per Capita Tax from $10.00 to $15.00 which was an incentive to purchase it before the end of the year. Some secretaries question why they did not receive as much credit on their Aruiual Returns as the full amount of their dues. This would no doubt be due to the fact that the funds for the Perpetual Life Membership did not reach the Grand Lodge Office so they could be deposited in the fund until after October 31 st. However, some Lodges will receive a gift from the Brother who purchased a Life Membership early in the year as a credit on the Annual Return. After the funds are deposited for a full year from October 31 st to October 31 st, the Lodge should received more credit than what the non-life Membership members pay direct to the Lodge. It would probabably be a good thing if the Lodge Secretaries could meet and have the workings of this program explained to them. All Secretaries must keep the Grand Lodge Office informed on any change of status of any Life Membership. When an active Life Membership holder dies, the funds in his account will be transferred to the Memorial Fund and the earnings from there will be remitted directly to the Lodges by draft from the Grand Lodge. These funds are to be treated as "other income" by the Lodge and are not dues. On October 31,1996 there were a total of 160 Perpetual Life Memberships which had been purchased in 70 Lodges. The original amount deposited for the 160 Memberships was $96,554.00 This amount is increased by the addition of the 20% of earned interest which is held back each year on each account. Memorials have been purchased in the name of 7 deceased Brothers by family or friends in the total amount of $980.00. As of October 31 st, one active participant in the Perpetual Life Membership Program passed to the Grand Lodge above and his Membership will be transferred to the Memorial Fund. This has been an interesting year in getting the program on the computer to do all the things necessary in adding the 20% interest hold-back to the original deposit. This, plus being able to maintain an earnings of 7% on the investment has allowed us to return an amount in excess of dues to each Lodge in the Program. It has been a privilege to serve the Grand Lodge on this committee. Fraternally submitted, Melbum C. Barnes, Chairman William G. Updegrove, Member

As Administrator of Kansas Masonic Home, I am pleased to present an Annual Communications which includes activities from the Centermial year of the Kansas Masonic Home. It was definitely a time for fellowship, celebration, reflection and rededication.

Our Annual Communications would not be complete without an expression of my deepest appreciation to Board of Trustee members, staff, volunteers and residents of Kansas Masonic Home. They have provided me with great support over the past year. Together, we have definitely taken the Masonic Home into the next century of modem elder care. We pray that all of our Kansas Masonic Brothers will not only read our Annual Communications, but they will continue their firm personal commitment toward our time-honored, 100-year-old Mission. The remainder of our communications will be a paragraphed-styled overview of our accomplishments. As you know, our activities here never cease. Your health-care mission employs three service-lines to care for the people of Kansas: Maplewood Home Care, your home health agency; Thomas C. Raum, Jr. Masonic Towers (independent-living retirement center); and our time-honored S. Allan Daugherty Medical Pavilion for people who need nursing home services. The Kansas Masonic Home Endowment Association helps underwrite your mission.

Grand Lodge of AF&AM of Kansas: This year has been a wonderful success for your Kansas Masonic Foundation. We have continued to promote several educational, charitable and scientific programs through your generous contributions. The Educational Department continued to grow, helping more and more Kansas students obtain a higher education. This year's specific achievements are described in more detail throughout this report. Kansas Masonic Oncology Research Center: Through generous contributions from the Masons of Kansas, your grant to the Kansas Masonic Oncology Research Center at KU Medical Center for the 1996-97 fiscal year is $220,000.00. Of that, $80,000.00 will be used to help establish the Kansas Masonic Oncology Research Chair. For each of the next three years, $80,000.00 will be reserved from "C-Club" gifts Masons regularly make to the Kansas Masonic Oncology Research Center for the purpose of supporting the Chair. This figure, along with the KU Endowment Association's $100,000.00 grant, will total $500,000.00. Since $1 million is required to endow a distinguished professorship in perpetuity, another $500,000.00 must be raised over the next three years. Since 1974, contributions from the Masons of Kansas have totaled over $2.2 million. C-Club: This exclusive group of Masonic philanthropists began in 1981 to provide support for the Kansas Masonic Oncology Research Center. During the 1996 calendar year, we received $73,187.46 from more than 1,600 charitable Masons who responded to our armual "C-Club" appeal. Currently of the 18,781 "C-Club" members, there are 2,428 Gold pin recipients who have donated $100.00-$499.99-, 162 Ruby pin recipients who have donated $500.00$999.99; and 99 Diamond pin recipients who have donated $1,000.00 or more. Three new donor levels were recently passed by the Board of Directors.

Diamond and Philanthropist donors receive specially engraved Plaques to show oiu- appreciation of their generosity. Platinum donors will also receive a Platinum "C-Club" pin. If requested. Heritage Club members will also receive a pin. An updated "C-Club" plaque listing through December 31, 1996, was sent to the lodges in February, 1997. Kansas Masonic All-State High School IVIarching Band: Washburn University was host to 138 of Kansas' finest musicians for the 13th Annual Kansas Masonic All-State High School Marching Band Camp held July 30 through August 3, 1996. We thank the many sponsors who paid the $250.00 fee for each student to attend. The 127 sponsors consisted of 94 Blue Lodges, 20 Eastern Star Chapters, 7 Shrine Units, 2 Scottish Rite Bodies, 2 Hi-Twelve Clubs, 1 York Rite Body and 1 Square & Compass Club. We encourage these and other Masonic-affiliated groups to sponsor a student for the 1997 camp so that we can inform more young people about Masonry. The 1997 camp will be July 22-26 at Fort Hays State University in Hays. Student Loan and Scholarship Program: A total of 33 new loans were granted in 1996 and 14 loans were paid off, bringing the total of outstanding loans to 138. As of December 31, 1996, the amount of the remaining loans is $356,077.59. The loan program is open to Kansas residents who are attending a Kansas post-secondary institution on a full-time basis.

M.-.W.-. James Callahan, Grand Master of Colorado, brought greetings. The Grand Master presented him with a Grand Master's cap. M.-.W.-. Richard Fletcher brought greetings from the Masonic Service Association and presented a certificate of merit to M.-.W.-. Carveth K. Neer. M.-.W.-. Neer presented M.-.W.-. Richard Fletcher with a Grand Master's cap. The Grand Master spoke of the Grand Lodge Endowment Fund. Over 4,000 brothers contributed, with an average of$21 and a few cents. He said this is very high, however only ten percent of Kansas Masons were involved. If this amount would continue for the next four years, the Grand Lodge would perpetuate forever. As it stands, $75,000.00 is in the Endowment fund now. M.-.W.-. Thomas C. Raum Jr, presented the Jurisprudence Committee Report: Juri.inrudence Committee To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: Introduction The report of the Committee on Jurisprudence is a condensed version of the more important and significant items addressed by the committee during the last year. Many matters considered by the committee are not of general interest to the Craft and are important only to the parties involved. Since our last Grand Lodge Annual Communication we have had one formal meeting of our committee. Most work of the committee has been handled by correspondence, telephone calls and discussions with members of the committee who responded orally and not in writing. Report of the Secretary of the Council of Administration The conunittee has reviewed the report made by the Secretary of the Council of Administration. We find that no part of the report requires our comment or action. Accordingly, I move that the report of the Secretary of the Coimcil of Administration be approved. Rulings by our Grand Master The Committee has reviewed the Rulings, Edicts and Orders of our Most Worshipful Grand Master, Carveth K. Neer, as reported in the Advance Proceedings. It is our opinion that all of said rulings were in conformity with the powers and prerogatives of the Grand Master and that they were issued with the best interests of the Craft in mind. I move that the Rulings, Edicts and Orders of the Grand Master be approved. Proposed Amendments to the Laws of Kansas Masonry At the 1996 Annual Communication the Grand Lodge took action to amend Art. Ill, Sec. 3 of the Consitution to read as follows: Sec. 3. By-Laws - The Grand Lodge shall have the power to enact By-Laws in aid of the provisions of this Constitution for the proper government and regulation of FreeMasonry, and shall also prescribe forms for the transaction of business. The By-Laws enacted and additional forms prescribed at any Annual Communication, if the proposition therefore shall be sustained by two-thirds of all the members present and voting: Provided, such changes shall take effect only from their publication with the Armual Proceedings, or 120 days, whichever comes first. The amendment added the phrase, "or 120 days, whichever comes first." Rationale of the amendment was explained as follows: "Experience has shown that the current requirement of a one (I) year delay before any change becomes law is confusing, does not accomplish a positive result for the Craft, and, in fact, has a negative result in that, in effect, more than two years pass before any changes become law." No action was taken to amend Article XI, Sec. 7 of the Constitution which provides as follows: Sec. 7. Amendments to Constitution - This Consutution or any Article or Section or any By-Law or any sub heading, may be amended, repealed or added thereto in the following manner: Every such proposition shall be submitted to the Grand Secretary's office by January 15th. The proposition shall then be forwarded to the Committee on Jurisprudence for review as to its proper form. Upon approval, the proposition shall then be forwarded to the Grand Master for his approval with a majority consent of the Council of Administration, agreeing thereto. If then approved, the proposition will be printed in the Advanced Report for presentation at the Aimual Communication. If approved by two-thirds majority at said Annual Communication, the proposition will then be placed in the hands of the Deputy Grand Master or his appointed representative, for discussion at the Area meetings.

At the following Annual Communication, the proposition will be discussed and balloted upon. If the proposition is sustained by two-thirds majority, said proposition will become Law with the printing of the Armual Proceedings or 120 days after the Annual Communication which ever event comes first. Article XI, Sec. 7 of the Constitution (which I have just read) remains in full force and effect, and is not affected by the amendment to Article 3, Sec. 3, adopted at the last Annual Communication. The following proposed amendments to the Constitution and/or By-Laws have been submitted to the Grand Secretary's office by January 15th. If approved by two-thirds majority, the propositions will be discussed and balloted upon at the 1998 Annual Communication. Debate should not be required today, as your affirmative twothirds vote merely places the propositions before the 1998 Annual Communication of Grand Lodge for discussion and ballot. M.-.W.-. E. Dean Osbom withdrew his proposed change. Before presenting the proposed amendments for your consideration, I wish to make the following observations: 1.
It is not the function of the Jurisprudence Committee to tell you how to vote. It is the duty of the committee to review proposed amendments as to their proper form, to advise the Grand Officers, Grand Lodge and committees upon all questions of Masonic Law, and upon all. Decisions and proposed Standing of other Regulations.
2.
Each Member who proposes an amendment is entitled to have that amendment presented in a positive manner. In each case I will move the adoption of the proposed amendment to place it before the Grand Lodge for consideration, even though I, or other members of the Jurisprudence Committee, may personally oppose the change. Proposition #1
Submitted by: David W. Miller, Jr., Overland Park Lodge No. 436. This proposal consists of five amendments to the Constitution and thirteen changes to the By-Laws of the Grand Lodge of Kansas. In the interest of time, I will not review each of the eighteen amendments separately. The effect of the proposals is summarized in the following premise for changes presented by the proponent: 1.
All Entered Apprentices, Fellow Crafts, and Master Masons are members of the lodge and become members as soon as they are obligated. They have all the rights given to members of their degrees.
2.
Only Master Masons are free to travel, attend stated meetings, conduct lodge business, be elected officers, or be members of the Grand Lodge.
3.
All members pay annual dues and can be dropped for non-payment.
4.
The lodge pays per-capita to Grand Lodge on each member on the rolls at the end of the year.
5.
Initiation fees for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd degrees are separate from annual dues and is consistent with the existing by-laws. The rules governing initiation fees remains unchanged.
6.
Dues for Entered Apprentices, Fellow Crafts, and Master Masons are set by the lodge and can be different for each degree, and can be pro-rated. However, per capita will continue to be set by Grand Lodge.
Further explanation is contained in the "Justification", prepared by the proponent, and printed in the Advanced Report. The committee recommends that you vote for or against the eighteen amendments proposed in Proposition #1 as a complete package. If you favor the concept of separate classes of members within the subordinate lodges, each with different rights and privileges, and each subject to payment of different dues, your vote for the proposed amendments should be in the affirmative. If you do not favor this concept, your vote should be in the negative. Most Worshipfial Grand Master, in order to place this proposal before the Grand Lodge for consideration, I move the adoption of the five amendments to the Constitution and the thirteen amendments to the By-Laws as set forth in Proposition #1. MOTION FAILED. Proposition #2 Submitted by: Rabbi Barry Albin, Arthur H. Strickland Daylight Lodge No. 452, Shawnee Lodge No. 54, and Delaware Lodge No. 96.

Annual Proceedings of The
March
The following two proposals are presented in the alternative by the proponents. If the first is adopted, the second should not be adopted. Likewise, if the second is adopted, the first should not be adopted. The first proposal would amend Article VII, Sec. 5 of the Constitution to provide that "Every member of the Grand Lodge at any election by ballot, or upon any question under consideration, shall have one vote for each lodge in which he has served as master or in which he holds office, either elective or appointive:" The effect of this proposal is explained in the following rationale presented by the proponents: "Many brethren hold plural membership in several lodges in this Grand Jurisdiction. These same brethren have a tendency to hold office in both lodges and even to become Master of both lodges. They feel their work is not being properly acknowledged especially since they pay per capita tax in both lodges. This constitutional change would improve their sense of fairness in regards to voting in the Grand Lodge." The alternative proposal would amend Article III, Sec. 2-301 of the By-Laws to add the following language: "Further Provided, that the tax shall not be collected on any particular member more than once per year no matter how many lodges a member may belong to and fiirther Provided, that the members home lodge shall be the one in which he pays his per capita tax." The effect of this proposal is explained in the following rationale presented by the proponents: "Brethren who are plural members of several lodges are required to pay per capita tax on each membership, thus inflating the alleged size of the membership in Kansas and further allowing the Grand Lodge to inappropriately collect per capita tax on a member several times even though they do not need to provide services by for one member at time. The Brethren generally oppose getting several letters on the same subject from the Grand Lodge and they oppose getting several copies of the Kansas Mason. These extra and duplicative acts should be eliminated." Most Worshipfiil Grand Master, to place these proposals before the Grand Lodge for consideration in the alternative, I move the adoption of the amendment to the Constitution and the amendment to the By-Laws as set forth in Proposition #2. MOTION FAILED. Proposition #3 Submitted By: R.-.W.-. Jeffrey L. Sowder, Deputy Grand Master. The first proposal would amend Sec. 3-403 of the By-Laws to read as follows: "All business of a Lodge, other than voting on proficiency of candidates, must be transacted at a Staled Communication, and while the Lodge is open on the First. Second, or Third Degree." The effect of the amendment would be to permit lodges to conduct their business in any degree. Most Worshipful Grand Master, to place the proposal before the Grand Lodge for consideration, I move the adoption of this amendment. MOTION CARRIED. The second proposal would amend Sec. 3-407 of the By-Laws to read as follows: "At the time and place prescribed in the By-Laws for holding a Stated Communication, the Master shall assemble the members and if a quorum is present, he shall open the Lodge on the First. Second, or Third Degree of Masonrv." The effect of the amendment would be to permit lodges to open and conduct business on any degree. Most Worshipful Grand Master, I move the adoption of this amendment. MOTION CARRIED. The third proposal would amend Sec. 3-412 of the By-Laws to read as follows: "The Lodge must be regularly opened on each Degree in which work is to be done. For all public ceremonies, except including funerals, it shall be opened on the First, Second or Third Degree -enly^ The effect of these amendments is explained in the following rationale presented by the Deputy Grand Master. "Allowing a lodge to open and conduct business on any degree would allow Entered Apprentices and Fellowcrafts to attend, see the workings of the lodge, work on lodge committees, ect. This would allow these new Masons to immediately become active in the lodge and hopefully will stimulate them to complete their degrees. It will also utilize more officers in the opening allowing for more participation by lodge officers."

Most Worshipful Grand Master, I move the amendment of Sec. 3-412 as proposed. MOTION CARRIED. Proposition #4 Submitted by: Jim Stone, Masonic Education Committee. This proposal would amend Sec. 3-417 of the By-Laws to read as follows: "A Lodge may publicly celebrate St. John's Day in June and December in each year, and may conduct the public funeral ceremonies upon the death of any affiliated Entered Apprentice. Fellow Craft, and Master Mason, or may attend such funeral without obtaining special authority therefor." The following rationale is offered by the proponent: "The present By-Law is in conflict with Sec. 3-418 which extends the right to Masonic burial to "Every Affiliated Entered Apprentice, Fellow Crafi, and Master Mason. The proposed amendment would eliminate that conflict." Most Worshipful Grand Master, I move the amendment of Sec. 3-417 of the By-Laws as proposed. MOTION CARRIED. Proposition #5 Submitted by: Albert O. Arnold, Jr., GSE, and Conrad F. Johnson, PGM. The first proposal would amend a portion of Sec. 2-302 of the By-Laws to read as follows: "PROVIDED, that when the Charity Fund including bonds at market value and cash on hand shall exceed a total of £70.000.00 $140.000.00 at the close of any annual accounting period there shall be not additional fund other than interest placed in the Charity Fund unless it falls below $-70:660:00- SI40.000.00. When the Charity Fund reaches $80,000.00 $ 160.000.00 all over that amount shall be transferred tothe General Fund of the Grand Lodge." The effect of this amendment would be to increase the Charity Fund from $70,000.00 to $140,000.00 to compensate for inflation. The following rationale for the amendment is submitted by the proponents; "Charitable needs are on the increase. Although there are fewer Masons actually asking for assistance, those that do are confronted with enormous amounts. All costs are continually increasing, especially medical expenses. Where one hundred dollars would do a few years ago, we are now finding a thousand or more dollars needed. This will also regenerate through income interest, a larger sum." Most Worshipful Grand Master, I move the adoption of the amendment as proposed. MOTION CARRIED. The second proposal would amend Sec. 2-303 of the By-Laws to read as follows: 2-303. CHARITY FUND— The Grand Treasurer shall-not-make-anypaymentfmt-ofthe-Gharity-Fundrexcept-on -the-Grand-Master-s-order,-and-the-Grand-Master-shall-not-draw-any-order-forany-sum-exceeding-One-Hundred -DoHars-in-any^^ase-wi thou^the-app^oval-of-the-Go unci l-of-Ad m inistrattonr^he-6ounetl-o fAdmi ntstratiorrmay -transfer not toexceed-fiftypercentofany-balance-in the General-Fund to the Gharity-Fund-if emergency-requires -it:-Whatever portion-of-thc^€harity^Ftmd-is-necessary-for-rclieHn-this-Grand-Ju^isdiction-or-clsewhe^e,-bu^not -exceeding theamountsetaside-forthepurpose the precedingyear,-may-be disbursed—(Amended'l 990) make payments up to $1.000 with the consent of three or more members of the Council of Administration. Any amount over that sum will require the unanimous consent of said Council. The Council of Adrpinistration may transfer up to 50% or one half the balance of the General Fund to the Charity Fund, if emergency requires it. The effect of this amendment would be to authorize the Grand Treasurer to make payments up to $ 1,000.00 or more with the consent of the Council of Administration. The following rationale for the amendment is submitted by the proponents: "This By-Law appears to be a misprint beside needing amendment to bring it into usable conformation." Most Worshipful Grand Master, I move the adoption of the amendment to By-Law 2-303 as proposed. MOTION CARRIED.

No Lodge shall be represented by its Master or Wardens in the Grand Lodge at any Annual Communication until each such report is received, nor until its annual dues are paid as provided by law. (Amended 1992) Cross-Reference: By-Laws Sees. 2-301, 3-306, 3-309 Change the month of February to January. RATIONALE:
Changing the due date from February 10 to January 10 will give the Grand Lodge office time to gather from the Annual Reports the numbers and totals needed for the Annual Report Summary that appears in the Advance Report and The Proceedings of Grand Lodge.

GRAND MASTER'S ACCEPTANCE SPEECH I believe that this will be a very exciting year for Masonry in Kansas. I have an excellent group of officers to work with during this year and each of them have been selected because they are outstanding Masons and 1 have asked them to carry my message throughout their part of the state so that all lodges will know what is expected of them. Strong emphasis will be put on the Prospect Night program, which 1 believe is the most important program that we have in Kansas Masonry. This program has proven itself over and over in lodges that have taken the plan and followed it step-by-step. New members will resuk from this program and I hope that during this year more lodges across the state will use this program. 1 also believe that our lodges must become more active in each of their respective communities. For far too many years now, we have chosen to rest on our past laurels and tell everyone what we used to do!! Nobody cares what we used to do - What they want to know is "What have you done for me lately??" Unfortunately many lodges have done very little. Our Masonic Renewal "Vision 2000" Program will assist lodges to get active in the four areas that we know are necessary for our survival - Leadership Development, Membership Development, Commtmity Involvement, and Family Involvement. This program will also be emphasized heavily as we attempt to get ourselves back to being the pre-eminent organization in each community. 1 will again allow the One Day Conferral to be a part of the membership program in Kansas. While this is not the answer to what ails Masonry, it is a very important piece of the puzzle that has put Kansas on the leading edge of Masonry all across the United States. I would ask that if you desire to have a One Day Conferral that you secure permission in writing from me and that you actively secure the best ritualists that are available so that our work is done in the most impressive manner possible. For years I have believed that perhaps one of the worst things that we do is take a new Entered Apprentice into our lodges, tell him how glad we are to have him and then ask him to leave and not come back until he has proved proficient. We then take him back into the lodge and give him his Fellowcraft degree and promptly do the same thing. Many men take either their first or second degree and then never come back to finish. Could that be because they are not asked to participate in any of the lodge activities or are able to set in a lodge meeting and see what a good time is had by all?? I believe it may bell I will tomorrow issue a "Blanket Dispensation" allowing all lodges in the state to open and conduct business in the Entered Apprentice Degree. I urge each of your lodges to do this conduct your regular lodge meetings in the Entered Apprentice Degree - as often as possible. This will allow all
1996-1997

new and old Entered Apprentices and Fellowcrafts to attend our lodge meetings and join in the fellowship that we enjoy. 1 can see nothing that takes place in our regular meetings that an Entered Apprentice or Fellowcraft could see that would be detrimental to Masonry. While in these meetings, the Entered Apprentice or Fellowcrafts will be able to take part in all lodge discussions, take an active part on any lodge committee, with the exception of an Investigating Committee, and participate in all lodge fimctions. These Entered Apprentices and Fellowcrafts will not be allowed to be a regular lodge officer, to make a motion or second a motion, or be able to vote on any lodge decision. For these they must wait until they have attained the sublime degree of a Master Mason. I would ask that if the lodge is opened for a Masonic funeral that you open in the Entered Apprentice degree so that all can be in attendence. I urge all lodges to seek out those Entered Apprentices and Fellowcrafts that they have and ask them to come to a regular lodge meeting where they will NOW be allowed to join in the fellowship and fun. As for the ability of these Entered Apprentices and Fellowcrafts to visit other lodges, nothing has changed. Since they do not have a dues card, if they visit another lodge that will be opening in the Entered Apprentice degree, they must have a Master Mason that can vouch for them. One of my other priorities is getting the ladies of all Masons involved in several projects. I believe our ladies lo be one of the most important "untapped" resources that Kansas Masonry has. 1 am very pleased that Cheryl has two projects that will get the Grand Lodge officers. Area Deputy Grand Masters, District Deputy Grand Masters and their wives involved in a joint effort. These individuals will be heading an effort to sell Emergency 911 Cards across the state with the profits going to support the Breast Cancer Research Project at the KU Med Center. These E911 cards, which are magnatized and are designed to be put on your refrigerator door, gives valuable information about you to emergency medical personnel should they ever be called lo your home. They will also be collecting "Best Choice" brand proof of purchase labels with each 1000 that they collect being worth $30 to go towards this same project. Cheryl has organized both of these efforts so that the "Ladies of Kansas Masons" can make a difference in breast cancer research. At next year's Grand Lodge session a check will be presented to Dr. Carol Fabian representing the money they have earned through these two projects. I urge all of you and your lodges to support their efforts. WTiat a great community project this would make for any lodge!! I have also asked Cheryl to write a column for each edition of the Kansas Mason. This column entitled "For Mason's Ladies" will be on page2 and will serve to keep the ladies informed on how these projects are going. My Brothers, if we are to get Masonry back to where it once was, we must each show our enthusiasm for our Fraternity. It is great to see so many of us with Masonic stickers, decals and license plates on our cars. I see more and more Masonic caps and jackets and lapel pins are on many coats and jackets. Many of you have seen my Grand Master's lapel pin and asked, "Is that a bull on that pin?" As most of you know, I am in the cattle business and my business deals with cattlemen across the Flinthills. My pin represents my interest in the cattle business and to that question - my answer is that "It ain't no bull - we'll steer you right in Kansas Masonry this year." Let's all be enthusiastic about Masonry and good things will happen. 1 look forward to serving the Masons of Kansas this year. It is a great honor and privilege to be Grand Master. 1 look forward to seeing you as I make my travels across Kansas. To my family, who 1 will introduce later to all of you, thank you very much for your attendance here today. You have each been very supportive of me and 1 appreciate you being present today. To my wife, Cheryl, thank you very much for all the love and support that you have given me as I prepare for this year. My wife has probably worked as many or more hours than I have getting ready for this year and 1 know that if it were not for her, 1 would never have been able to accomplish what I have. I believe that the planning and work that we have done together for this day and this year has brought us much closer together. Cheryl, you are the most important person in my life and 1 love you very much. To my daughters, Stephanie and Lindsay, the two that keep me on my toes and going down the straight and narrow path. 1 am most proud that I have you as my daughters and for everything that each of you have already accomplished in your own lives. You are an inspiration to me for what is "right" with the youth of America. You each have high goals that you hope to achieve and I have no doubt that each of you will achieve them. I know you have each sacrificed at times because 1 asked you to attend something of Masonic significance with me when you would just as soon have been elsewhere. I love each of you very much and 1 thank you very much for being the two best daughters any Dad could hope to have. To my Mother - who keeps my business and office going on a daily basis and will especially have her hands full during this next year. You are a very special lady that everyone says looks much too young to be my Mother. 1 know that this next year may be very hard as I constantly pop in and out of the office and am never really there long enough to do what really needs to be done. I will be back on a full time basis sometime - so hang in there until then. With your guidance, 1 am certain that everyone will pull together and keep things going. 1 love you Mom!! To my Lodge - As all of you know I am from Toronto, a town of approximately 330. My lodge - Woodson Lodge #121 - is the best lodge in the state of Kansas and just so that no one will argue that point during this next year -1 as Grand Master so decree that to be so. Remembering that Toronto is located near Toronto Reservoir, our claim is that we are "the best little lodge by a dam site." If every lodge worked as hard in their repective communities as my lodge does - then Masonry would be the very best organization in every commimily. Today, my lodge chartered

a Greyhound bus from Toronto and members of my lodge and my Eastern Star Chapter came to Salina for this Installation. Would everyone who is a member of Woodson Lodge #121 and Golden Star Chapter #173 please stand. To the Master of my lodge, Brother Gordon McNitt, thank you very much for your friendship, your part in the Installation ceremony, and for your leadership of our lodge during this very busy year. Each and every one of you are an inspiration to me and I cherish your friendship. Thank you very much for coming. And to my Father - who pased away in 1991 and who was a Past Master of Woodson Lodge #121. He demonstrated what Masonry is really all about to me each day of his life by his actions and how he conducted himself And while I am not sure that he would understand why I would ever have put myself in this position OR how 1 could possibly be gone from the business as much as 1 am going to be this next year -1 do feel that he would have been very proud today. There are also a number of other special people here today - Sister Nancy Evans, Worthy Grand Matron, Brother Dean Wyant, Worthy Grand Patron, Sister Emily Royer, Associate Grand Matron, Brother Boyce Dougherty, Associate Grand Patron and all the other Eastern Star Grand Officers. I thank you very much for being here today. Each of you are very special to me and I look forward to being with you, Nancy and Dean, at you "Our Father's World" Grand Chapter Session in April and to be working with you - Emily and Boyce - in the year to come. We already have several combined events on our calendars. To all the other Leaders of appendant Masonic organizations, your attendance is greatly appreciated as well. It is only through our continued Masonic Unity that Masonry and your appendant bodies will continue to form that base that will take us into the next century. Each of you have my complete support in all of your efforts and if there is anything that I can do for your organization, please don't hesitate to ask. A special thanks to Gary Durm, Potentate of Midian Shrine Temple and members of his Divan for being here today. Also a big thanks to those from the GW Country Shrine club that are here today. To you President Eldon, I look forward to helping you in any way that I can. If I have a theme during this coming year, it would be that we must "Control Our Destiny By Creating Our Future." By getting new members and getting our lodges out into their respective communities we will do just that. There is nothing wrong with Masonry and I am convinced that there are a large number of men in each community that would like to join an organization that believes in God, has high moral and social values, gives them an opportunity to give something back of themselves to their community, and gives them a place where they can take their family. We are just that organization and 1 believe that if we dedicate ourselves to Masoruy and to getting our lodges active, we will attract those men as new members. My Brothers, it is time to "roll up our shirts sleeves and go back to work." We have a large challenge in front of us - but we have had them before and have always met them head-on. I am confident that this time will be no different. I challenge each of you to go back to your lodges and be the one that truly makes a difference. I ask you to work with me with renewed efforts and enthusiasm as we labor for the good of Kansas Masonry. Together - we can accomplish what needs to be done. Thank you. The Grand Master had his Officers introduce themselves and their families. He then introduced his Grand Senior Deacon, and asked him to present his family. M.-. W.-. Jeffrey Sowder then introduced his family, and his wife was serenaded. First Lady Cheryl was given the traditional pendant, and then presented the Grand Master with a black Stetson hat with a hatbox. M.'.W.-. William J. Brown, PGM presented an engraved wood pen and pencil set, and computer case for his laptop from his installing officers. Daughters Stephanie and Lindsay were escorted to the Grand East and they showed him the shirts they got for themselves that have his name on them, and then gave him a shirt as well. They then presented him with a license plate for his car and a gavel made from their hedge. Gordon McNitt, Master of Woodson #121 presented a banner from the Lodge. Gary Dunn, on behalf of Midian Shrine, presented the Grand Master's FEZ. The Worshipful Master of Salina Lodge formally invited Grand Lodge back in 1998.

VISION (What we want to become by the year 2000) FreeMasonry is universally recognized as the preeminent organization that exemplifies leadership, charity, fellowship, and positive family values within the community, the stale, the country, and the world at large. MISSION (The reason we exist) The mission of Kansas Masonry is to provide for its members opportunities for personal grovrth through fellowship, education, service, and leadership experience, and increased self-esteem through recognition and the opportunity to give something back to their community. The mission outside of the Fraternity is to fulfill charitable needs, display positive family values and offer leadership to the community. By ftilfilling this mission, the fraternity will grow and prosper as good men seek to join and remain associated with men of high principle and character, as taught by Freemasonry.

He also served eight years on the Board of Education of USD #329 in Alma. He also served a President of the National Association of State Agencies for Surplus Property in 1964-65. His Masonic record reads like a"Who's, Who." His service to Lodge and Grand Lodge through the years proved his great devotion to the Fraternity.

SAMUEL ALLAN DAUGHERTY Grand Master of Masons of Kansas February 14, 1952 to February 12, 1953. Incheckingbackoverthebiographiesthat have been written concerning most of the Past Grand Masters of Kansas Masonry, we find a distinct pattem. God fearing grand parents or great grand parents, followed by descendants of like mind. The ancestors, having achieved their goal of a place where they could worship God according to their own beliefs and having established a nation where all men have equal opportunities to build a life of character and establish homes for their descendants, are followed by children who have taken up where the ancestors left off and continued, through the multitude of American free institutions, to make use of the privileges of building on solid foundations. This pattem is very noticeable in the lives of our Grand Master DAUGHERTY and his wife. The parents of ALLAN'S father came from Virginia by way of Kentucky, through Illinois to Kansas. His mother's ancestors came from Scotland to Illinois, Iowa and Kansas and settled near Blue Mound where ALLAN'S parents met and were married. In 1906 JAMES WESLEY DAUGHERTY and his wife, ALLAN s parents, moved to the State of Washington. On February 25,1908, ALLAN was bom in the City of Hoquiam. Five years later the family returned to Kansas. ALLAN is one of those men whose joy is in the working and striving, never content to just let the world roll by. His early boyhood was a very busy one as he worked hard as a boy and continued working for his education. High School at Blue Mound and College at Baker University, supporting himself and his mother, after his father's death. In High School and College ALLAN participated in athletics. Including four years in football at Baker University. (Under coaching of E. S. Liston, the brother of V. M. Liston, our Masonic Home Superintendent.) Part of the well noted common sense of our Grand Master arose from his early association with, and his listening to the advice of D. F. PATTERSON, of Blue Mound, Kansas, where he operated the grocery store in which ALLAN worked, and who was one of those happy mortals who can impart suggestions to which a boy and yoimg man will listen, and who took a continuing interest in the young ALLAN DAUGHERTY. At Baker University

Allan secured a job in a grocery store and worked there during the entire time he was in college and later became and still is the owner of the store. At Baker too, ALLAN came under the influence of the Methodist Church, with which he united, and which operates Baker University. It was while living at Baldwin and attending Baker University that ALLAN met his future wife. Miss LUCILE KRAMER, the daughter of Rev. and Mrs. EUGENE KRAMER. Rev. KRAMER was a Methodist minister stationed at Burlington, Kansas. The writer can well understand how this combination would work, for certainly a Methodist preacher's child would have plenty of opportunity to learn and practice economy in a home. She has proved herself to be a most efficient wife, and mother of their son, DENNIS A. DAUGHERTY. Mrs. DAUGHERTY is active in many circles, having been District President of Phi Mu, an active worker in Simday School. Church and A A.U.W. as well as helping to organize the Baldwin Kindergarten. ALLAN'S civic record has been a very faithful one, showing the desire to attempt to repay by sevice for the privileges received. He served for three years on the Board of Education, is a Past President of the Baldwin Rotary Club, is a member of the Alumni Council of Baker, was Chairman of the American Red Cross of Baldwin for two years and a member of its County Board for four years. His service to his Baldwin Methodist Church has been equally happy and strenuous. He is a member of its Official Board and served as Superintendent of its Sunday School for four years, as well as upon a number of committees of the church. As a man and a friend our Grand Master has exhibited the attributes that have won the loyalty and respect of those who have met and associated with him. The friendly smile and clasp of the hand have made him many friends and his ability to remember names and faces and properly locate the man has been the envy of his Masonic associates. As Grand Master he has had a very busy year and the purple of the Fraternity has had no chance to become heavy. The dignity of the office has been fully sustained but has never interfered with the kindly interest of the man in the affairs of each lodge and its members. His administration has been one of peace, prosperity and high idealism. ALLAN belongs to both the York and Scottish Rite Bodies of Freemasonry at Lawrence and the Order of The Eastern Star at Baldwin. His Masonic Record follows: MASONIC RECORD ANCIENT CRAFT MASONRY.

As Grand Master, I will be attending services at Merriam Christian Church and Grand Lodge will be opened at 9 am at Rosedale Lodge #333 in Shawnee Mission.

GRAND MASTER'S ADDRESS To each of you my fellow Brother Masons, I would like to welcome you to this 142nd annual communication of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas. For this next day and half, we have all gathered in the name of our Ancient Fraternity to enjoy fellowship with each other and to attend to the business of our Grand Lodge. 1 sincerely thank each of you for taking the time to attend Grand Lodge and encourage each of you to take an active role in the business affairs of your Grand Lodge.

I would like to start out by thanking each of you my Brothers, for the honor and privilege that you have shown me by electing me to serve as your Grand Master. I appreciate the confidence that you have shown in me and the support that each of you have given me during these past five years as I have worked my way up the Grand Lodge line. I have always attempted to serve as Grand Master with the dignity afforded the office and to live this year by two mottoes. The first being one that I took from my good friend and Deputy Grand Master, T. Michael Fegan "You know you are NOT Grand Master a whole lot longer that you ARE Grand Master." And the second one "You are only going to have one chance to serve the Craft as Grand Master - so make the most of the opportunity." I have at all times tried to listen to what the Craft has to say and to uphold your wishes and to always make my decisions with for the good of Freemasonry in mind. Finances I am very pleased to say that for the third straight year, your Grand Lodge has finished its year well in the black financially. Even though we had a busy year with much travel, we still finished the year with a surplus of over $120,000. These excess funds have, on the advice of our accountant, been equally divided between the Grand Lodge long-term investments and the Grand Lodge endowment fund. With the addition of over $60,000 to the endowment fund, I am pleased to report that although this fund was established only a little over a year ago, it now has over $135,000. In the next few years, with the addition of the added surplus from the per capita tax increase that we approved two years ago, this fund should grow at an even faster rate and will help to insure the future of Masoruy in Kansas for many years to come. Council of Administration The Council of Administration, R.-. W.-. T. Michael Fegan, R.-. W.-. John Mowen, R.-. W.-. Stanley Browning, and also M.-. W.-. Brothers Don Robinett and Warren Stams, and W.-. Brother Mark Nelson has been a constant source of support this year. We have worked together as a team with much "peace and harmony" as I have tried to "rule and govern" by giving each of these individuals the opportunity to express themselves openly and to have constant input as to the affairs of your Grand Lodge. Their counsel has always been "timely and good" and I thank each of them from the bottom of my heart for their wisdom and support. I can assure each of you that the Grand Lodge of Kansas is in great hands in the years to come as each of those in the progressive line will be excellent leaders of the Crafl and will serve with great distinction as Grand Master. I am very pleased and proud that I can call each of you my "friend" and "Brother" and to each of you I say, "Lead on! !" Grand Lodge Staff Our Grand Lodge Staff continues to amaze me. Jean Rader, our Office Manager, along with Tanya Artzer and Jennifer Boize are dedicated employees of our Grand Lodge and has always been available to give assistance to me when asked. I thank them for what they do for all of us in keeping everything running as smoothly as possible. Chuck Hoffmeister, our Grand Lodge building manager, Charles Baldry, our librarian, and Bud Horton, our printer, each admirably perform their respective jobs for Grand Lodge. I thank each of you for what you do. I would also like to thank Dr. Gilbert Farmer for all his assistance throughout the year as we have worked together to hopefully make this Grand Lodge session one that will meet with all your expectations. Past Grand Masters The Past Grand Masters are a constant source of information and wisdom. On numerous occasions this year, I have consulted with different ones to help me make a decision that would be the best for all involved. My resprect and admiration for these distinguished Brothers became greater with each passing day this year and 1 thank each of you for support that you have given me throughout this year. M.-. W.-. Lany Winegardner gave me my first opportunity by appointing me his District Deputy Grand Master in 1984. Then M.-. W.-. Clifford Knauss asked me serve as his Grand Junior Deacon in 1987. Since that time, I have had the privilege to serve nearly every Grand Master as a Grand Lodge officer. Area Deputy Grand Master, or Chairman of the Membership Committee. I thank each of you for this learning experience and I felt last year at this time when I was installed as Grand Master that I was extremely ready to assume the position of Grand Master. It was a tribute to many of you that I felt that way. To M.'. W.-. Bill Brown, my Masonic Father, it seems like only yesterday that we sat in lawn chairs in your front yard and you labored to convince me to serve as Grand Senior Deacon. Because of the age of my daughters, I was a little hesitant to take the position. However deep in my heart 1 knew that I could not say "No" to you Dad and I thank you for my appointment, for the patience that you showed in allowing me to make my decision, and most of all, for giving me the opportunity to serve the Craft. I hope that I have met your expectations. I have enjoyed every minute of my time in the Grand Lodge line and I owe you and Jessie Marie my deepest thanks. I am also deeply saddened that we have lost two most distinguished Past Grand Masters, M.-.W.-. S. Allan Daugherty and M.-W.-. Morris L. Fisher who were called to that house not made with hands eternal in the heavens, this year. Masons everywhere held each of these brothers in most high esteem and our Fraternity will sincerely miss them. I am confident however that when they were met by the Grand Architect of the Universe, his comment to them was, ''Well done, my good and faithful servant.".

Appointive Grand Lodge Officers Every Grand Master, I am sure, feels that he has the very best Grand Lodge officers and certainly I am no exception. My Grand Lodge family has grown together over this past year and has truly become a "family." Each of you are outstanding men in your own right and stand out even taller in Masonic circles. Each ofyou have served our Grand Lodge with great distinction this year and have driven thousands of miles, spent hundreds of your dollars, and given many of your hours for Kansas Masonry. You have represented me in my absence with great skill and have been a shining example o f Masonry in action" throughout this year, you are each to be commended for your commitment to our Fraternity. Woodson Lodge #121 To the Members of Woodson Lodge #121 in Toronto - From the time that I was raised as a Master Mason in January of 1975. each ofyou have been a continuing influence on my life. You have given me the opportunity to grow as a person and as a Mason. I can still remember that evening when M:. W;. Brother Bill came to Toronto and announced that 1 would be his Grand Senior Deacon appointment. I think we all realized together that the next five years would not be ordinary ones for our small lodge. You have worked extremely hard and have been given me your full support. You have met each challenge along the way "head on" and have passed with flying colors. My reception, which you hosted, was beyond belief- especially when reservations kept coming in and coming in until they were over 450 in number. But never once did you say "We can't do this" only "We have to make bigger plans." To W.-. Brothers Gordon McNitt and Floyd Smith, Masters last year and this year, your leadership has been an example for others to follow and have confiraied once again that Woodson Lodge # 121 is "the best little lodge by a dam site" and at least for my term as Grand Master, the best lodge in Kansas. I would like to thank my lodge for allowing me to use the lesser lights that sit next to the altar, on our Grand Lodge floor. They are truly a Masonic masterpiece. ADGMs, DDGMs, Grand Lecturers, Grand Lodge Committeemen The Area Deputy Grand Masters, District Deputy Grand Masters, Grand Lodge Lecturers, and Grand Lodge committeemen that 1 appointed have each given so fully of their time and efforts to carry my message to the individual lodges and to perform their different tasks to assist to bring Kansas Masonry back towards what it once was. I thank each ofyou for accepting your appointment and for a job well done. It is because of Brothers like yourselves that Masonry is held in such high esteem. Appendant Bodies Masonic unity among all appendant bodies in Kansas continues to be high. We all realize that we are "in this together and must work together in order to survive and perhaps prosper in the years to come." I would like to thank Illustrious Thomas C. Raum, Jr., Sovereign Grand Inspector General in Kansas, R.-. E.-. Corvon Carpenter, Grand Commander of the Knight's Templars, M.-. E.-. Don Robinett, Grand High Priest, Grand Chapter of Royal Arch Masons, and fllustrious Clifford Trax, Grand Master of Cryptic Masons for the generous hospitality that each have exhibited to me on my various visits to their appendant bodies and for the support that they have given to me throughout this year. And to the five Potentates of the Shrine Temples of Kansas, what a day we had in Hays, Kansas. 1 thank each ofyou for your support of "Blue Lodge Masonry." To anyone that thinks that any of these men do not care about the Blue Lodges, then I say that you do not know them - for we all realize that the Blue Lodge is where it all begins. Let's all continue to work together for the good of our Fraternity. I thank each leader of our appendant bodies for the privilege of serving with each ofyou. Family And to my Family -1 could not have held this position without the full support of each of them. My wife Cheryl has been beside me, walking every step of the way, either in person or in spirit when she could not be present, for each of these last five years. I know that she has been working longer and harder on this Grand Lodge session than I have. She has spent countless hours at home and in the car making favors and decorations for the banquets and seeing that every detail is taken care of- all the while working full time and being a full time Mom to our daughters. As the First Lady of Kansas Masonry, she has been a constant Ambassador for Kansas Masonry, giving talks about Masonry and our various projects. She has overseen the E-911 card and Best Choice label projects that will culminate tonight with a presentation to Dr. Carol Fabian with a check in excess of $15,000 to assist in her breast cancer research. 1 could not have done it by myself and I thank her for all her love and support. My daughters, Stephanie and Lindsay, and my mother, Mary, have also been most supportive of me. I know I have missed a few things that didn't get scheduled on the calendar correctly, however I have always tried to remember that I was a husband, father and son before I became Grand Master and will continue to be after I am Grand Master. I could not have done this job without each ofyou and I love each ofyou very much. Rulings and Special Dispensations This year I have ruled on many questions that have been directed to me. With the assistance of the Jurisprudence Committee, I have always attempted to rule with the best interest of Freemasonry in mind. Many special dispensations have also been given. I believe that if a need of a lodge can be met through a special dispensation, then it should be granted. I have attempted to always have a full understanding of a lodge's problems and attempt to help them find a solution that will be of benefit to them. I have at all times tried to listen to what the craft has

to say and to uphold your wishes and make my my decisions with the good of Freemasonry in mind. This has not always been an easy choice. And at times it would've been much easier to simply turn the other way and walk away. However, had I done that, I would have not upheld the principles upon which I believe this great Fraternity is built and more importantly I would not have been able to live with myself My prayer is that my decisions have been correct. Membership Our Grand Lodge Membership Committee, under the direction of W.-. Mark Nelson, has done an outstanding job. While showing a net gain is actually not a realistic goal at this time, our losses continue at a much slower pace than just a few years ago. The Prospect Night or Friends of Masons Night program has enjoyed its greatest success this year. On several occasions, I have told lodges that if they want the Grand Master to come to visit, just set up a Friends of Masons Night, follow the plan that our Grand Lodge Membership Committee has directed for a successful Friends of Masons Night, and then I will come and make the presentation. I have done in excess of 25 Friends of Masons Night programs during my term as Grand Master and I know that the other members of the Council of Administration and Membership Committee has done a large number as well. This program will nearly guarantee new petitions and I am most pleased to see that a number of lodges who had successful Friends of Masons Nights last year have already scheduled another one this spring. This is the best testimonial to the success of this program. To obtain and then keep members continues to be a challenge to nearly all lodges. I am most pleased to report that there are a number of lodges across the slate that are doing extremely well. Their success in attracting new members can almost always be traced directly to the amount of community involvement that they do and to the amount of fun that they have at their meetings and other special events. Community Involvement and Fun - two simple ideas that will almost certainly give any lodge a spark - get old members back to coming to lodge and give new members a reason to join. Appointments I have had the opportunity this past year to make several appointments into vacancies that have occurred. I have selected men who have served our Craft well and each is most deserving of their appointment. The following Grand Representatives have been appointed: Leiand G. Salts - Campeche Mexico, Roy L. Surridge - (Taiwan) China, Arthur A. Hartshorn, Jr. - Indiana, Billy D. Gifford - Tamaulipas Mexico, Mark E. Nelson - El Salvador, Tom Hewitt -Prince Edward Island Canada, David E. Crase - Alberta Canada, Roger G. Snellen - Pemambuco Brazil, Tom Griffith - Manitoba Canada, Charles W. McClain - Maryland. I am also pleased to have elevated R-- W.-. Terry Carter to the position of Grand Lecturer, and R.-. W.-. Brothers Russell C. Schwilling, Ronald R. Atkins, and Robert K. Shklar to the position of Grand Lecturer Emeritus. Highlights My year has been filled with many highlights starting on the Tuesday following my installation with the presentation of a sheepskin signed by many Masons to M.-. W.-. Art Hodgson at his lodge in Little River. It seemed that hardly a week went by without some major event taking place. Without a doubt, the greatest highlight of this year has been the opening of relations with the Grand Lodge of Prince Hall Masons in Kansas. On August 9, 1997 my Grand Lodge officers and myself were hosted by M.-. W.-. Roy Althouse, Grand Master of Prince Hall Masons of Kansas and his Grand Officers at an informal gathering in Topeka. What a great feeling of brotherhood and fellowship we all felt as we met and discussed how we could normalize relations between our two Grand Jurisdictions. On January 17, 1998 we once again met in Topeka and approved an agreement that will allow the Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Kansas to be a separate, but equal Grand Jurisdiction. This agreement has been sent to all lodges in Kansas and will be voted upon this afternoon just prior to Jurisprudence. I ask for your approval of this document. I would like to thank M.-. W.-. Forrest Haggard for all his work and assistance on behalf of our Grand Lodge to see that these accomplishments have been obtained. It is lime we moved Masonry into the next millenniimi and this is one of the first steps. Brother T. Michael Fegan and I journeyed to New York City in Jime to be present at the installation of W.-. Brother Dermis Daugherty, who was installed as Master of Publicity Lodge # 1000. What an experience it was as we greatly enjoyed the hospitality of Brother Dennis and all his lodge Brothers. We were most pleased to represent and make presentations on behalf of his Father, M.-. W.-. S. Allan Daugherty, Past Grand Master of Kansas. We were all then deeply saddened when only a few short weeks after our trip. Brother S. Allan was called to that "house not made with hands, eternal in the Heavens." He is missed by all of us present today, but know that he watching down from above. This year we have done fourteen dedications or cornerstones across Kansas and each time the Grand Lodge OfTicers did an outstanding job in their presentations. This is an opportimity for us to put Masonry on display and to show the public a little about what we really are.

Thanks to the five Shrine Temples of Kansas, Cheryl and I enjoyed the Imperial Shrine session in St. Louis. We greatly enjoyed this opportunity to tour the Shrine Children's Hospital in St. Louis and look forward to returning in the years to come. With numerous requests from the Craft to once again have Area Meetings, we listened to the membership and did just that. We held 6 Area Meetings, one each in Kansas City, Toi>eka, Wichita, Dodge City, Hays, and Chanute. I am sorry to say that they were very poorly attended and that we should think seriously before holding these meetings again in the future. Thejoint dedication with the Grand Master of Oklahoma, M--. W.-. Ronald Johnson and his Grand Lodge officers, of a Masonic fountain in Medicine Lodge on September 28 will long be remembered. We all enjoyed a day of Masonic fellowship and through the great influence of our Grand Chaplains with the Grand Architect above, we accomplished our mission without heavy rains. The Kansas Masonic Home and The Kansas Masonic Foundation continue to be bright and shining stars in Kansas. Each has excellent leadership and continued to show what Masonry can do for the benefit of all mankind. They each have a very bright future and are something that all Kansas Masons can be most proud. Many other occasions will be remembered as well - however my greatest memory and highlight will be all the great Brother Masons that I met on my trips through our Grand Jurisdiction. Now 1 truly know why this is the greatest Fraternal organization in the world - because of each of you. As I started my year as Grand Master, my only goal was to attempt to leave our great Fraternity a little better than I found it. Through the grace of God, the help and support of my family and Grand Lodge officers and the inspiration that each of you have given me, I believe my goal has been met. I have been honored to serve and represent you as your Grand Master and I trust that we will all continue to labor together for the future success of Freemasonry in Kansas. Tom Griffith and Mike Porter were asked to come forward and give the finance committee report.
COMMITTEE ON FINANCE To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of AF &AM of Kansas: The members of the Finance Committee are glad to report that 1997 was a very good year for the Grand Lodge of Kansas. We budgeted $541,354 for the fiscal year 1997. (January 1, 1997 thru December 31, 1997) At the end of the fiscal year we had a Budget Surplus of $125,108.61. Credit for the surplus of funds should go to the Grand Master, members of the Council of Administrafion and the Finance Committee for their efforts. Our Grand Master made a dedicated effort to manage Grand Lodge expenses during 1997 to keep them well within budget limits. As a result we were able to make a significant addition to the Grand Lodge Endowment Fund; and, roll over substantial funds to this year's budget. Hopefully, this begins a trend that will continue in future years. During the year of 1997 the Finance Committee met regularly with the Grand Lodge's licensed public accountant at which time the accounts of the Grand Lodge were reviewed and compared with the budget. Further the Committee met quarterly with the Grand Master and the members of the Council of Administration to review expenses to date and compared them with the projected budget amounts. Additionally, the committee reviewed all investments of the Grand Lodge, seeing that all coupons were collected and accrued interest reinvested, or transferred to general fiands as needed. The committee reviewed cash management processes and made recommendations relative to short-term cash investment opportunities. A general survey of Grand Lodge property was made and determined to be in relatively satisfactory condition. Unfortunately, Morris L. Fisher, PGM, for reasons of health, tendered his resignation from his posifion as Chairman of the Finance Committee. The Grand Master appointed Tom Griffith as Chairman for the remainder of the year. The members of the Grand Lodge Finance Committee thank Most Worshipfijl Sowder for his leadership, cooperation and assistance. We are most appreciative for the opportunity to serve the Grand Lodge of Kansas during 1997. Fraternally submitted, Tom Griffth, Chairman

The Grand Master called upon the Grand Treasurer to give his report. GRAND TREASURER S REPORT To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge AF & AM of Kansas I am happy to report 1997 was a financial success for the Grand Lodge of Kansas. The income this year exceeded the expenditures over $124,000.00. $62,296.00 of this was transferred to the Endowment fund leaving us with a net income of $62,812.61. Some of this income came from our Per Capita Tax increase and some from the increase received from our investments, but the large part came from the tight rein our Grand Master and the Council of Administration held on the spending. Respectfully submitted, F. Warren Stams, Grand Treasurer

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REgORT Most Worshipful, Jeffrey L. Sowder, Grand Master, the Grand Lodge Finance Committee and The Council of Administration for the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas Topeka, Kansas I have audited the statement of assets, liabilities and fund balances of Che Most Worshipful Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas as of December 31, 1997, and the related statements of revenues and expenses and changes in fund balances, and cash flow for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Grand Lodge Finance Committee and Council of Administration. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit. I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion. My audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying schedules are presented as supplementary information and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied to the basic financial statements and, in my opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas at December 31, 1997, and the results of its operations and its cash flow for the year ended December 31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Motion to accept the Finance, Grand Auditor's and Grand Treasurer's reports was made and seconded. Carried Motion to accept all reports printed in the Advanced Proceedings that do not require action of this Grand Lodge be accepted as printed. Seconded and carried. Don E. Robinett moved that they waive the by-law 2-101 that stales the election cannot happen until after lunch, so that the tellers may count the votes while everyone eals-since it has always been done this way. Seconded and Carried. The Grand Master declared the ballot open and instructed the tellers to assemble behind the altar. The ballot was then declared closed and the ballots were collected. The Grand Master announced the topic of this year's Essay Contest "Should the First Amendment to the United States constitution be changed?" M.-. W.-. Sowder announced the Perpetual life membership committe election and his nominations for the election are Marvin Stovall and Jerry Cole. Jerry Cole declined the nomination and Marvin Stovall was re-elected by unanimous vote. The Grand Master excused the Grand Masters and Past Grand Masters for lunch. He then turned the Grand East over to T. Michael Fegan so that he could join them. R.-.W.. T. Michael Fegan called for the Membership Committee Report. MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE The Membership committee has focused and steered its efforts toward several aspects of membership this year, with one in particular â&#x20AC;&#x201D; being the "Prospect Night" ("now called the Friends of Masons Night") We have found this to be the best tool which a lodge can use to create not only a positive growth in membership, but also a positive and active atmosphere within the lodge. Several Masons across this great State, who are dedicated and devoted to the advancement of Masonry have given a great deal of their time to this cause. Planning is the key. The "Friends of Masons Night" doesn't just happen on its own. It requires a little time, a little effort, and great amount of desire. As of March 10th according to the reports that had been turned in by that date, there have been 37 Friends Of Masons Nights held, with a total of 201 prospective Masons in attendance. Of those 201 men who attended these programs, 123 signed and turned in petitions. This figure reflects a success rate of 61%. This percentage rate is and probably will be higher than 6 1 % due to the fact that there are still petitions forthcoming from these previously held programs. It is the consensus of the Membership Committee that all Lodges across the State should diligently strive to find skillful methods to increase their membership. It has been a distinct pleasure for me to serve as chairman of the Grand Lodge Membership committee this past year. And on behalf of the Committee I would like to take this opportunity to give our thanks and appreciation to our Most Worshipful Grand Master for his outstanding leadership and devotion to the Craft, and for the opportunity of allowing us to serve the Grand Lodge of Kansas. Respectfully and Fraternally submitted, Mark E Nelson Chairman R.-. W.-. T. Michael Fegan made two announcements. To let the Grand Lodge Officers go to the front of the lunch lines and R.-.E.-. Corvon Carpenter requested that the Grand Commandry Officers to the front of the lines due to a drill practice. The Grand Chaplain offered prayer. The Grand lodge was put at ease.

Toast to M.-.W.-. S. Allan Daugherty, Grand Master 1952 and to M.-.W.-. Morris L. Fisher, Grand Master 1995: Given by the Venerable President, M.-.W.-. William J. Brown. Response by M.-.W.-. E. Dean Osbom M.-.W.-. Osbom paid tribute to M.-.W.-. Daugherty, who had made the transition from time to eternity, August 3 K 1997. Bro. Osbom talked about the life of Bro. Daugherty, of his many contributions to Masonry, to the many appendant bodies in which he was active, of the many honors that had been awarded him in recognition of his dedication and devotion to the Masonic Fraternity. He was recognized for his standing, not only in the community in which he lived, Wichita, but also his church. His record as the long time administrator of our Masonic Home in Wichita will be long remembered. M.-.W.-. S. Allan Daugherty, Master Mason Grand Master 1952-1953 02/28/08-08/31/97 Response by M.-.W.-. Conrad F. Johnson. Bro. Johnson in his response talked of the life and accomplishments of M.-.W.-. Morris L. Fisher, who had transferred his membership to the Grand Lodge above March 10, 1998. Bro. Fisher was a devoted husband and father, a leader in his church, a prominent business man in his community. His record in Masonry was one to be envied and emulated. Bro. Johnson remarked that Bro. Fisher's record and his respect for him was what prompted him to appoint Bro. Fisher his Senior Deacon in 1991. This response would not be complete if it did not comment on the outstanding record of Bro Fisher during his year as Grand Master. He inherited a Grand Lodge that was financially strapped, a budget that was destined to be in the red at the end of his year and a Craft that was seriously divided in its thinking regarding the conferring of our degrees in symbolic Masonry. But through his guidance and his leadership, he, at the conclusion of his year, was able to turn over to his successor a Grand Lodge that was financially solvent, a Budget in the black and while there was still opposition to the mass conferring of our degrees, a Craft willing to make changes and look to the future. M.-.W.-. Morris L. Fisher will be long remembered for his accomplishments as Grand Master. M.-.W.-. Morris L. Fisher, Master Mason Grand Master, A.F. & A.M. of Kansas 10/27/32-03/10/98 To these two Distinguished Brothers the Grand Architect can tmly say, "Well done. Good and Faithful Servants!"

142nd Annual Communications Most Worshipful Grand Lodge Ancient Free & Accepted Masons of Kansas M o s t Worshipful Sir, Officers and Members of the Craft: The residents, staff and Board of Trustees of your oldest "living charily," the Kansas Masonic Home, send their warmest greetings to the members of our great fraternity... the Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas! As Administrator, I am honored to present an Annual Communications of the Kansas Masonic Home and pray it gives each and everyone one of you an insight into your fine philanthropic efforts. First let me impart, that my staff members and myself want to express our deepest appreciation to everyone who makes our Mission possible for the fine elderly people in our charge. Our most sincere thanks to the Board of Trustee members, volunteers and residents of Kansas Masonic Home. They have provided us with great support over the past year. Together, we have definitely taken the Masonic Home into the next century of modem elder care. Our Communications most importantly thanks you today for your ongoing, faithfial support to our elder-care mission. It is one which earnestly needs your acts of charity. We are sure you already know this. But, we also feel it should be restated at each turn, every juncture of our daily Masonic efforts to serve our fellow man. You are sincerely appreciated for your kindness to the residents at Kansas Masonic Home. We also hope that all of our Kansas Masonic supporters will not only read our Annual Communications, but they will continue their firm personal commitment toward our time-honored, 100-year-old Mission. Our Communications will be a paragraphed-styled overview of our accomplishments. As you know, our activities here never cease. Your health-care mission employs two service-lines to care for the people of Kansas: Maplewood Home Care, your home health agency; and our time-honored S. Allan Daugherty Medical Pavilion for people who need nursing services. We also proudly operate the Thomas C. Raum, Jr. Masonic Towers independent-living retirement center. Next year, we will also be able to relate the activities of a new Assisted Living & Wellness Center, a service which will truly make us a Continuing Care Retirement Community. Our fourth service. The Kansas Masonic Home Endowment Association, helps you underwrite your mission.
ADMINISTRA TION/OPERA TIONS With great sadness we must document the fact that Brother S. Allan Daugherty died Stmday, August 31, 1997 in the Medical Pavilion named after him. The former Administrator of Kansas Masonic Home and Past Grand Master of Ancient Free & Accepted Masons of Kansas was 89 years of age. We mourn the passing of a fine friend.

This loss reminds us of the important role — whether it's played by staff, volunteer or donor — that we all perform in our Masonic Mission. Even amidst the construction of our new Assisted Living Facility & Wellness Center, the fanfare of tours, the attendance at annual meetings, the almost daily entertainment of residents . . . we find that our personal relationships are the basis of everything good at Kansas Masonic Home.
In
remembrance.,.
People knew Brother Samuel Allan Dougherty in many ways and by many titles — Fast Grand Master, businessman, book collector, history buff, rose gardener — but they loved him primarily for his human compassion. He was born on February 25, J 908 in Hoquiam. Washington, as the only child of Mr. and Mrs. James Wesley Dougherty. Me grew up in Blue Mound, Kansas. As a Blue Mound High School student, he supported his mother following his father's death in 1924. Mr. Daugherty attended Baker University in Baldwin City, where he met his future wife. Miss Lucile Kramer, the daughter of Rev. and Mrs. Eugene Kramer. Following graduation in 1933 with a degree in Business Administration, Mr. Daugherty taught and coached at Vinland High School. On August J, 1935, he purchased what became known as Daugherty's Grocery and Market in Baldwin City. He and Lucile were married on August 26, 1935 in the First Methodist Church of Eureka with the bride's father officiating. Their one son. Brother Dennis Daugherty, was born to them in 1939. The entrepreneur owned and operated Dougherty's Grocery and Market from 1935 to 1957. He was active in civic affairs, serving the Board of Education, American Red Cross. Rotary Club, and the First Methodist Church Board in Baldwin City. Following a one-year period as Business Administrator of the First Methodist Church in Topeka, the Daugherty family moved to Wichita, so Mr. Daugherty could accept a position as Superintendent of the Kansas Masonic Home in October 1958. He served in this capacity until his retirement in 1979. Mr. Daugherty was raised in Palmyra Lodge No. 23 in 1938, in Baldwin City; served as Worshipful Master in 1943; and District Deputy Grand Master in 1945 and 1946. In 1952, Mr. Daugherty became the Most Worshipful Grand Master of Ancient Free & Accepted Masons of Kansas, while concurrently serving as president of the Kansas Masonic Home Board of Trustees. He also served as Secretary of the Past Grand Masters Association from 1973-1989. He received his 60-year pin, as a Mason and member of Palmyra Lodge, at the annual Grand Lodge of A. F. & A.M. at Salina, Kansas, this last March of 1997. The former Masonic Home administrator was also a member of the York Rite Bodies of Lawrence and the Wichita Valley of Scottish Rite. He was coroneted an Inspector General Honorary of the 33rd Degree in 1965. Mr. Daugherty was created a Noble ofMidian Shrine Temple in 1989. Mr. Daugherty supported the Order ofDeMolay. He and his wife were also active the International Order of the Rainbow for Girls and 50-year members of the Evangeline Chapter No. 162, Order of the Eastern Star, in Baldwin City. Mr. Daugherty and his wife moved into the Thomas C. Raum, Jr. Masonic Towers retirement center in September 1994. The Past Grand Master was preceded by the February 1995 death of his wife, Lucile, following 60 years of marriage. He is survived by their one son, Dennis, who lives and works in New York City. Just as people dearly loved Brother Samuel Allan Daugherty primarily for his human compassion, they also sincerely appreciate your devotion to something greater than ourselves, the Kansas Masonic Home. Just as he "improved the quality of the lives of our residents, shared in their Joys, and made difficult and tragic events and times, less difficult and tragic," you as members of the Kansas Masonic Family are in our thoughts and prayers throughout all of our Fraternal efforts.

Kansas Masonic Oncology Research Center: Through generous contributions from the Masons of Kansas, your grant to the Kansas Masonic Oncology Research Center at KU Medical Center for the 1997-98 fiscal year is $200,000.00. Of that, $80,000.00 will be used to help establish the Kansas Masonic Oncology Research Chair. For each of the next two years, $80,000.00 will be reserved from "C-Club" gifts Masons regularly make to the Kansas Masonic Oncology Research Center for the purpose of supporting the Chair. Since 1974, contributions from the Masons of Kansas have totaled over $2.5 million. C-Club: This exclusive group of Masonic philanthropists began in 1981 to provide support for the Kansas Masonic Oncology Research Center. Donors who have a cumulative giving of $25.00 or more are recognized on their Lodge's "C-Club" Plaque as "Members" of the "C-Club". The different levels of cumulative giving in the "C-Club" are: Gold ($100.00-plus); Ruby ($500.00-plus); Diamond ($l,000.00-plus); Platinum ($5,000.00-plus); and Philanthropist ($ 10,000-plus). Those who name the Foundation in their will or trust become members of the Heritage Club. An updated "C-Club" plaque listing through December 31, 1997, was sent to the lodges in February, 1998. Kansas Masonic AH-State High School Marching Band: Fort Hays State University was host to 147 of Kansas' finest musicians for the 14th Annual Kansas Masonic All-State High School Marching Band Camp held July 22 through July 26, 1997. We thank the many Blue Lodges and affiliated bodies who sponsored students. We encourage these Masonic-affiliated groups to sponsor a student for the 1998 camp so that we can inform more young people about Masonry. The 1998 camp will be July 21-25 at Emporia State University in Emporia. Student Loan and Scholarship Program: A total of 36 new loans were granted in 1997 and 19 loans were paid off, bringing the total of outstanding loans to 154. As of December 31, 1997, the amount of the remaining loans is $411,326.69. The loan program is open to Kansas residents who are attending a Kansas post-secondary institution on a full-time basis. The application deadline for the 1998-99 school year is June 1, 1998. More information about these loans is available from the Foundation office or any member of the Board of Trustees. Students who have been in our loan program for at least two years may qualify for a non-solicitable Lester Barrett King/Clarice Whitehill King Scholarship. Eleven Kansas students have received a total of $20,750.00 in nonsolicitable scholarships since 1995. If any Lodges are interested in sponsoring a non-solicitable scholarship through the Foundation, please contact our office. Endowment Fund: This permanent ftind ensures the Foundation's ability to continue our programs in the ftiture. Only a portion of the income from this fimd is used each year and the principal may never be invaded.

The motion was made and seconded to accept this report and the Kansas Masonic Foundation. Carried M.' W.. Bill Brown remarked upon the Room Refiirbishing Appeal. He then presented a Certificate of Merit to the Grand Master for the Grand Lodge of Kansas' second donation of 14 of one room. He also presented a commerative belt buckle numbered 121 to Jeff Sowder. The Grand Master called upon Martin Donaldson for the report of the Perpetual Life Membership Committee. REPORT OF PERPETUAL LIFE MEMBERSHIP PUN FUND. Inc. To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: This has been a very busy year for the Executive Council. Due to the fact that Martin Donaldson was elected in March 1996, Charles McClain was elected in March 1997, and Marvin Stovall was appointed by the Grand Master in April 1997, to replace the resigned William Updegrove, three of the five members of the Executive Council had very little knowledge of the operation of our Plan. Our first Special Meeting on May 13, 1997, was an educational session in which we studied the By-Laws, investments and administration procedures. We also had a Special Meeting on July 22, 1997, and Special Telephone Meetings on October 8, 1997, October 27, 1997, and December 31, 1997. As a result of these meetings, we reorganized and amended our By-Laws, developed and printed a brochure, revised our computer program and made investment decisions. One copy of the amended By-Laws and ten copies of the new brochure have been mailed to each Lodge Secretary which we hope will answer most of the questions the Secretaries and Craft may have about our Plan. We request that the Lodge Secretaries make these brochures available to their members and encourage them to participate in our Plan. This Plan is a major benefit to the Lodge, as well as, the participant.

The Executive Council will conduct an audit of the records of the Plan in February and also will develop a formal investment policy as soon as possible. Membership in our Plan is comprised of three types (1) Prepaid Perpetual Membership, (2) Prepaid Perpetual Membership-Deceased and (3) Prepaid Perpetual Membership-Memorial and from October 31,1996 to October 31, 1997, the total membership had grown by 69 new members for a grand total of 237 members. These members represent 83 Lodges. From October 31,1996 to October 31,1997, net assets increased by $40,713.27, from $108,359.18 to $149,072.45. This increase is from new member fees and the increase in market value of the investments. We wish to remind all Secretaries to notify the Grand Lodge office, using the 3-page application form, of any change of status of any Prepaid Perpetual Member; such as, dimit, death, suspension/expulsion or reinstatement. It has been a privilege to serve the Grand Lodge as members of the Executive Council of this Plan. Fraternally submitted, Martin M. Donaldson, Chairman Don E. Robinett, PGM Grand Secretary F.

COMPACT BETWEEN The Most Worshipftil Grand Lodge, A. F. & A. M. of Kansas and The Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge, F. & A. M. of Kansas and its Jurisdiction Inclusive Preamble In order to establish, and implement, fiill and complete Masonic recognition; to provide for successful coexistence; to insure a continuing harmonious relationship; to promote Masonry in general; having a mutual regard for the right of each Grand Lodge to retain its absolute and supreme sovereignty regarding legislative, executive, and judicial power over its own lodges, members, rituals and activities; having the legitimate light of each to continue to exist and operate within the geographical bounds of the stale of Kansas; and to secure the blessings of The Grand Architect of the Universe; the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge, A. F. and A. M. of Kansas and the M.-. W.-. Prince Hall Grand Lodge, F. and A. M. of Kansas and its Jurisdiction inclusive, mutually agree to the following: 1 That each of the above named Grand Lodges will remain autonomous within, and unto, itself operating heretofore, each with its ovm Grand Master, constitution, laws, rules, and regulations. II That each extends full and complete fraternal recognition to the other, and grants to the respective members of each, all the rights of a Master Mason, and of fraternal relations and associations granted to any other Grand Jurisdiction with which it presently has fraternal relations; limited only by restrictions imposed by the respective laws, rules, and regulations of each, as they relate to members of other Jurisdictions.

III Established, herewith, is a permanent joint commission to be named The Joint Masonic Fraternal Relations Commission (JMFRC). The commission shall be composed of four (4) members from each Grand Lodge, selected as follows: the Grand Master of each Grand Lodge shall appoint a Commission Chairman and each Chairman shall select three Grand Lodge members to serve with him, who are knowledgeable concerning the history and problems that may arise in implementing and sustaining this compact. These selections must be submitted to their respective Grand Masters for approval. During the even numbered years, the Prince Hall Chairman shall preside over the Commission and during the odd numbered years the A. F. & A. M. Chairman shall preside. A. Formal communication, concerning the work of the Commission, shall be between the respective Commission Chairman and his own Grand Master or between the Grand Masters themselves. B. The Commission shall meet upon the call of its presiding Chairman, and will consider and make recommendations to each Grand Lodge; through its respective Grand Master, conceming issues, conflicts, disputes, or questions. IV This compact is not intended to, and specifically does not, abrogate the Supreme Masonic authority - legislative, executive, and judicial - of the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas or the M.-. W.-. Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas and it Jurisdiction inclusive. Rather, it constitutes a compact between the respective Grand Lodges in which the autonomy of each is guaranteed, while, at the same time, the right to reside and work together in Peace, Harmony, and Brotherly Love is assured. V Changes, additions, deletions, corrections or amendments to this compact will not be effective until the same shall have been reduced to writing, signed by each Grand Master, and ratified or approved by each of the respective Grand Lodges. VI This Compact shall be in effect only when it has been approved by the Grand Masters of both Grand lodges, and not then, until it shall have also been submitted to, and ratified or approved by, each of the respective Grand Lodges according to the terms of its organic law. This Compact signed in good faith by the Grand Masters of each Grand Lodge on January 17, 1998. It is subject to the ratification of both Grand Lodges.
Most Worshipful Grand Master, Past Grand Masters, and Brethren all: In March of 1994 this Grand Lodge passed a resolution stating that we recognize the Prince Hall Charter as regular and legitimate. This resolution applied to all Prince Hall Grand Lodges who operate under that original Prince Hall Charter. In June of 1994 Prince Hall Grand Lodge F & AM of Kansas passed a resolution that recognized the Charter of this Grand Lodge. We have now formulated a Compact between our Grand Lodges and that Compact has been distributed to you for your information and knowledge. This Compact is tried and true and is the same basic document used by Colorado, Nebraska and Massachusetts and conforms to the basic agreements in the other twenty eight Grand Lodges that have recognized Prince Hall. This has been a lenghthy and slow process. Slow because not all of our members think the same. Racial prejudice is a highly emotional charged feeling. In 1994 I had one of our good brothers say to me, "Haggard you b do you really believe that a n can think well enough to be a Mason?" That man made many errors in that statement. He is a Past Master and a member of an honorable and active family in our Fraternity. But he failed a basic test of both intelligence and Freemasonry! We needed to take the time to educate and teach both morality and ethics, as well as basic human understandings. We have not been hurried nor pushy but now the time has come to do this Compact. The members of this Grand Jurisdiction have been very vocal in their desire to recognize our Brothers of Prince Hall Affiliation. There is no difference in recognizing Prince Hall and any other foreign Grand Jurisdiction such as the York Grand Lodge of Mexico or any other Grand Lodge in the worid. The key difference is that we both occupy the same geographical territory. You ask how we will woric with Prince Hall. The answer is that we will do exactly as we do a Grand Lodge in Brazil or a Grand Lodge in Canada or a Grand Lodge in Africa. We set up our visitations according to the same courtesies and procedures that we follow when we visit a foreign Grand Lodge. I recall the rage of a Grand Master of this Grand Jurisiction who, visiting a foreign land, knocked on the door of a Lodge and was refused admittance. He had no credentials, he had not made any pre-arrangement, he didn't even have his apron nor Masonic clothing with him. He made no provision to make the visit in an appropriate manner. In the Grand Lodge Magazine of New York a member posed the question "Can an Alien be a Master Mason?" The
84
Annual Proceedings of The
March
answer by the grand lecturer was: "Alien: in this connection oiu- Consititution states possessing all the other necessary qualifications an alien may be a Master Mason. Alien is unknown in Freemasonry." Such is the background of this Compact. It is a very workable instrument designed for two Grand Lodges who occupy the same territory. It is a situation that is recognized by the Commission on Information of the Conference of Grand Masters and is legal and proper. More important it is the RIGHT AND MASONIC THING TO DO. Most Worshipful Grand Master, on behalf of the Fraternal Relations Committee I'd like to move the adoption of the Compact as stated. Forrest D.

Motion approved. The Grand Master then outlined what would happen now. M.-.W.-. Steven Munsinger, Grand Master of Masons in Colorado, brought greetings. M.-.W.-. Ralph Livermore, Grand Master of Masons in Iowa, brought greetings. The Grand Master called for the Jurisprudence Committee Report. He then requested that the Proposition #7 be read first. To The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas; The Report of the Committee on Jurisprudence is a condensed account of the more and significant items addressed by the committee during the last year. Some matters considered by the committee are not of general interest to the Craft, only to those parties involved. Since our last Grand Lodge Annual Communication we have had one formal meetingof our committee. Most of the work of this committee has been handled by telephone calls and discussion with members of the committee who responded orally and not in writing. The first item is the report of the Secretary of the Council of Administration. The committee has reviewed the report made by the secretary of the Council of Administration and we find that no part of the report requires our comment or action. Accordingly, 1 move that the report of the Secretary of the Council of Administration be approved. Seconded and Carried. The next item on my report is the rulings of the Grand Master. The committee has reviewed the rulings, edicts, and orders of our M.-.W.-. Grand Master Jeffrey L. Sowder as reported in the Advanced Proceedings. It is our opinion that all of said rulings were in conformity with the powers and prerogatives of the Grand Master and that they were issued with the best interest of the Craft in mind. I therefore move that the rulings, edicts, and orders of the Grand Master be approved. Seconded and Carried. Now to the Proposed Amendments to the Kansas Laws of Masonry. The following proposed amendment to the Constitution was submitted to the Grand Secretary's Office by January 15, 1998. If it is ^proved by a two-thirds majority, the Proposition will be discussed at Area Meetings as currently provided for in Article 11 Section 7 of the Amendments to the Constitution and will be balloted upon at the Armual Communication in 1999. Remember that your vote today on this proposal only approves it to be brought before you in 1999 for discussion and ballot. Now, the Article 11 Section 7 dealing with Amendments to the Constitution you have printed there in the Advanced Reports, I understand that there is a proposed revision to this. The Grand Master proposed that the Area Meetings be taken out of the By-Laws and simply make the Lodges ftilly aware of all legislation. Seconded and Carried. M.-.W.-. Don E. Robinett, PGM proposed to add at the very end where there is a period, change that to a comma and add the words "at which time the Grand Secretary will have notified each constituent lodge, all Area Deputy Grand Masters, District Deputy Grand Masters, Grand Officers, all Past Grand Masters, and all Grand Lodge Committee Chairman of all newly enacted legislation concerning this Constitution and By-Laws." Seconded and Carried. Clifford Trax proposed that the sentence "Upon approval, the proposition shall then be forwarded to the Grand Master for his approval wdth a majority consent of the Council of Administration, agreeing thereto." be deleted. Seconded and Carried. Propwsition #7 ARTICLE XI Sec. 7. Amendments to Constitutionâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; This Constitution or any Article or Section or any By-Law or any sub heading, may be amended, repealed or added thereto in the following manner: Every such proposition shall be submitted to the Grand Secretary's office by November 1. The proposition shall then be forwarded to the Committee on Jurisprudence for review as to its proper form. If then approved, the proposition will be mailed to all lodges by December 15 and will be printed in the Advanced Report for presentation at the Aimual Communication. If approved by two-thirds majority at said Annual Communication, it will become law with the printing of the Annual Proceedings or 120 days after the Annual Communication whichever event comes first, at
86
Annual Proceedings of The
March
which time the Grand Secretary will have notified each constituent lodge, all Area Deputy Grand Masters, District Deputy Grand Masters, Grand Officers, all Past Grand Masters, and all Grand Lodge Committee Chairman of all newly enacted legislation concerning this Constitution and By-Laws. Rationale: we have not had area meetings in all areas since 1991 where new legislation was to be discussed. This would take out the year layover and the second vote which was confusing, but would require new legislation to be submitted by November 1 and sent to all lodges by December 15. Recommended by Don E. Robinett PGM, Grand Secretary M--W.'- Grand Master I move the adoption of this amended amendment to Article XI Section 7 of the Constition as amended. Seconded and Carried. When acted on next year, the procedure will change. Proposition # 1 Submitted By: R.-.W--. Jeffrey L. Sowder, Deputy Grand Master. The first proposal would amend Sec. 3-403 of the By-Laws to read as follows: "All business of a Lodge, other than voting on proficiency of candidates, must be transacted at a Stated Communication, and while the Lodge is open on the First. Second, or Third Degree." The effect of the amendment would be to permit lodges to conduct their business in any degree. Motion made and seconded. Carried. Proposition #2 The second proposal would amend Sec. 3-407 of the By-Laws to read as follows: "At the time and place prescribed in the By-Laws for holding a Stated Communication, the Master shall assemble the members and if a quorum is present, he shall open the Lodge on the First. Second, or Third Degree of Masonrv." The effect of the amendment would be to permit lodges to open and conduct business on any degree. Motion made and seconded. Carried. Proposition #3 The third proposal would amend Sec. 3-412 of the By-Laws to read as follows: "The Lodge must be regularly opened on each Degree in which work is to be done. For all public ceremonies, OMCopt including funerals, it shall be opened on the First, Second or Third Degree ÂŤal^. It shall be sufficient to close the lodge on the highest degree on which it has been opened." The effect of these amendments is explained in the following rationale presented by the Deputy Grand Master. "Allowing a lodge to open and conduct business on any degree would allow Entered Apprentices and Fellowcrafts to attend, see the workings of the lodge, work on lodge committees, ect. This would allow these new Masons to immediately become active in the lodge and hopefully will stimulate them to complete their degrees. It will also utilize more officers in the opening allowing for more participation by lodge officers." Motion made and seconded. David Eckert, Master of Hugoton #406, questioned does this mean that a First or Second Degree receive a Masonic funeral? Question suspended until the next Proposition. Motion Carried. Proposition #4 Submitted by: Jim Stone, Masonic Education Committee. This proposal would amend Sec. 3-417 of the By-Laws to read as follows: "A Lodge may publicly celebrate St. John's Day in June and December in each year, and may conduct the public funeral Ceremonies upon the death of any affiliated Entered Apprentice. Fellow Craft, and Master Mason, or may attend such funeral without obtaining special authority therefor."

The following rationale is offered by the proponent: "The present By-Law is in conflict with Sec. 3-418 which extends the right to Masonic burial to "Every Affiliated Entered Apprentice, Fellow Craft, and Master Mason. The proposed amendment would eliminate that conflict." Motion made and seconded. The Grand Master addressed the question asked. Jeff Chamber, North Star #168, asked if an Entered Apprentice that has been on the book for a while was still entitled to a Masonic Funeral. M.-. W.-. Sowder said that the family probably wouldn't know he was entitled if it had been that long and even if they did, does that make the promise made invalid? Motion Carried. Proposition #5 Submitted by: Albert O. Arnold, Jr., GSE, and Conrad F. Johnson, PGM. The first proposal would amend a portion of Sec. 2-302 of the By-Laws to read as follows: "PROVIDED, that when the Charity Fund including bonds at market value and cash on hand shall exceed a total of ji7Q.QOO.O0ÂŁ 140.000.00 at the close of any annual accounting period there shall be no additional fund other than interest placed in the Charity Fund unless it falls below S7Q.O0Q.QO S140.000.00. When the Charity Fund reaches $80,000.00 $160.000.00 all over that amount shall be transferred to the General Fund of the Grand Lodge." The effect of this amendment would be to increase the Charity Fund from $70,000.00 to $140,000.00 to compensate for inflation. The following rationale for the amendment is submitted by the proponents: "Charitable needs are on the increase. Although there are fewer Masons actually asking for assistance, those that do are confronted with enormous amounts. All costs are continually increasing, especially medical expenses. Where one hundred dollars would do a few years ago, we are now finding a thousand or more dollars needed. This will also regenerate through income interest, a larger sum." Motion made and seconded. Mike Butterfield, Past Master Auburn #32, asked if it could be changed to the Endowment Fund instead of the General fund and was told that it was not possible to do charity out of the Endowment Fund.
Don E. Robinett, PGM and Grand Secretary, offered discussion that this amendment would not change the amount of charity that Grand Lodge does, only take money from a higher yielding account and put it into a lower yielding account. He urged to consider this carefiilly. Jim Kingsford, JW Valley Center #364, stated that this bill would lock money into charity use that could be, if necessary, allocated from the General Fund. He also stated that if Grand Lodge needed this money, it could not be taken back from the charity fund. Albert 0. Arnold, JR, Past Master Rosedale #333, stated By-Law 2-302 provides for the first 5% of per capita tax to go to charity. He proposed that they use this money to build up to the $140,000 not just take a lump sum. He also stated that the Charity fund could be invaded by the Council of Administration at will. He pointed out times are not as good for all the brothers that have been suspended and stated that the Grand Lodge could be able to help them out. Mike Porter, Valley Center #364, pointed out that the Council of Administration has at it's disposal up to one half of its General Fund if needed for charity. He also pointed out that they are receiving a higher interest rate by keeping their money where it is. M.-.W.-. F. Warren Stams, Wallace #318, also stated that any excess could be taken out of the General Fund.

Aimual Proceedings of The
March

I replied to them that I had a lot of faith in the Masons of this state and you have proven me right.

Being Grand Master is a great exjjerience, however some nights are better that others. The night in Manhattan was the most difficult night I have spent as Grand Master. I guess that is what they pay the GM the big money for. I would first like for each of you to know that I did not just randomly walk into Manhattan Lodge and take action. 1 was invited to the lodge by the Master on behalf of his officers and a large majority of his members. They were seeing what he termed as a huge injustice taking place in his lodge and asked for my assistance in the matter. An excellent candidate for FreeMasonry - highly recommended by two distinguished members of the lodge - one a Past Master, and having passed with "glovmig reports" from three separate Investigating Committees, was being repeatedly rejected at the ballot box. There was no question in the mind of the Master, from comments that had been made to him by individuals, that this was a clear case of racial discrimination. I want to be very clear that the Master committed NO violation of any Masonic law in coming to this conclusion- and I commend him for asking the GL for assistance. I went to the lodge that evening evening with R.-.W.-. T. Michael Fegan - Deputy Grand Master and the Investigating Committee again reported highly favorable for the candidate. The ballot was spread and was declared "dark". The Master declared the petition rejected. I then asked to assume the East and permission was granted. I put the lodge at ease and asked all to leave the room and to come back into the lodge individually to meet with R.-.W.'. Brother Mike and myself. During these visits with each member - at NO time did I ask anyone how they voted NOR did I question their ballot. I simply asked if they knew of any reason why this man should not become a member of our Fraternity. I did this because if a member had a reason and did not want to tell the Investigating committee, I wanted to give him the opportunity to tell me. Did I walk a fine line in visiting with each member Probably - however I was very careftil NOT to question the ballot. Following my conversation with each member, I asked all to return back into the room. I then visited with each of them about how it was was our duty and responsibility to inform the Investigating Committee of any reason why a person should not become a member, how it is the internal and not the external qualification that make a man a candidate for Masonry, how our Masonic lessons teach us that we should always vote without prejudice and how the Great Light sits on our altar and teaches us that we are the Brotherhood of Man under the Fatherhood of God. I then called the lodge back to labor, waived the 6 month waiting period nomially required to ballot on a petition, and spread the ballot. Once again there was one black cube. I informed the lodge they had rejected the petition and then informed them I was declaring the man elected to receive the degrees. I then turned the meeting back to the Master. Once the meeting was over, Mike and I were sincerely thanked by nearly everyone in the lodge for helping them to overcome this "cancer" that was in their lodge. I felt very low that night. However Mike Fegan said something to me as I prepared to get into my car and go home - He said, "As low as you feel right now, how would you feel tomorrow morning if you had let racism, prejudice and bigotry prevail in that lodge tonight." Those words have stuck with me since that night. I have read many time our Grand Lodge By-Law 4-103 - Secrecy of the Ballot. There are many significant points of importance in this By-law - however I believe that no part of this by-law has more emphasis than any other part - and the last part of that by-law says ...and in the exercise of this right, he should not be controUed by prejudice, but should vote for the good of Masonry. To me, this is just as important as the rest of that by-law. We, as Masons, are also reminded in our Masonic Lessons "that with privileges, come responsibilities." I believe that these privileges were abused in this matter. I would liken this to the fact that we as American citizens all "have the right to bear arms," however that does not mean that we can do anything that we wish with these weapons. We must be responsible for our actions. I have been told by many that 1 could have remedied this situation by making this individual a Mason on sight however I believe that would have accomplished very little except to allow him to be a Mason. He would have missed the opportunity to experience our degrees and would not have understood why 1 took the action. To me, it was not a good option to consider - however 1 do agree that we should take greater opportunity of this Grand Master prerogative. I have been asked by some how I as Grand Master feel that I have the power to overturn the ballot. I can assure you that I feel without question that 1 do have this authority. In our Constitution under Article VI - Section 5 Duties and Powers of the Grand Master; It states he (the Grand Master) shall have the power: *'(a) to preside over assembly of the Craft; (I) To interpret the laws and require their observance; and (I) To superintend the transactions of the Crafty to interfere in all congregations of Masons and prevent the commission of wrong, ...'* It is my feeling and interpretation that a "commission of wrong" was being done in the lodge in question and that not just prejudice - but racial prejudice was the reason behind that "wrong".

There are many other factors that enter into this situation and we would be here until quite late discussing everything. I have not attempted to hide anything that Ihave done - but have tried to communicate to the lodges exactly what did occur - HOWEVER to sum it up - you just had to be there to know everything. Sometimes extremely difficult situations require extremely difjiculi actions. Itwouldhavebeen very easy for me to just turn away and do nothing- however I would not have been able to live with myself and 1 would not have upheld the Masonic principles that 1 have been taught. I know that those of you that know me well - would know that 1 would never act on a situation such as this without a great deal of thought and prayer. To me this was not a "black and white" issue, it was a "right and wrong" issue. I did what I believed to be right. I sincerely hope that another Grand Master is never put in this situation. M.-. W.-. Bill Brown responded to this by saying the standing applause the Grand Master received was a good indication that the Craft agreed with his decision. Worshipful Master Hugh Thompson was recognized as Master of Lafayette # 16. W.'. Kenneth Bebe, Grand Junior Deacon of Nebraska, brought greetings. The Grand Master thanked his Grand Representatives. The Grand Master thanked Brother Don Hamilton for all of his help. R.-. W.-. T. Michael Fegan spoke of the condition of the Grand Lodge Building. The Grand Master spoke of the All Membership Banquet. He then commended the Craft for their efforts. The Grand Lodge was put to refreshment until the next morning. The Grand Lodge was called from refreshment to labor. The Grand Master recognized Brother Fred Sturm and his constant companion. M.'.P.'. Orville Wessler, General Grand Master of the General Grand Council of Cryptic Masons International, brought greetings. W.-. Brother Fred Armitage. Nova Scotia, brought greetings. M.-.W.-. Ron Johnson, PGM of Oklahoma, brought greetings. M.'.W.'. Bill Brown presented the Past Grand Master's jewel and emblem. The Grand Master annoimced that the Grand Sword Bearer's father passed away and asked that everyone keep his family in their thoughts. The Grand Master called Damon Grimes for the Necrology ceremony. The Grand Master thanked Dee D. Duttweiler for his musical talents and Mark Nelson for his song. M.-.W.-. Sowder called for the final Credentials Report.

Jeffrey Sowder again thanked everyone for everything. The Grand Master called for the Grand Chaplain. The 142nd Annual Communication of the Most Worshipfiil Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas was closed in ample form. GRAND MASTER'S REPORT 1 have approved three consolidations of lodges this year - LaCrosse #330 with Walnut #215 on 7/1/97; Stafford #252 with Ionic #254 on 12/1/97; and Oak Hill #334 with Wakefield #396 on 12/1/97. I have approved the following One Day Conferrals: Shawnee Lodge #54 on 4/5/97; 4/26/97; 6/7/97; 6/12/97 Ensign #413 on 4/5/07 Topeka #17 on 4/12/97 Ida #38 on 4/19/97 St. Thomas #306 on 4/19/97 Golden Rule #90 on 5/2/97 Albert Pike #303 on 5/3/97; 7/19/97; 11/08/97 Great Bend #15 on 5/10/97 Wakarusa #402 on 5/17/97 Seabrook #385 on 8/9/97 Marysville#91 on 8/9/97 Union #7 on 9/27/97 Lenexa#135on 10/4/97 Hoxie#348on 1/31/98 Ben Hur #322 on 2/7/98 Mayetta #393 on 2/21/98 St. Bernard #222 on 2/21/98 Many other "routine" special dispensations were issued during the year. Other Proclamations or Rulings I issued a "blanket dispensation" allowing all lodges in Kansas to open and conduct business in the Entered Apprentice, Fellowcraft, or Master Mason degree. Stipulations were attached" to Entered Apprentices and Fellowcrafts for their participation and for allowing them to serve on various lodge committees and for the purpose of voting on any lodge decision. I declared the month of May as "Mile of Food" month and encouraged all lodges to have projects to support the Kansas Food Bank Warehouse or a local food pantry. I issued a proclamation declaring June 24 to be St. John's Day and asking all lodges to be in observance of this on the Sunday closest to this date. I approved an election of a lodge officer at irregular times due to death or resignation in Topeka Lodge # 17, Ben Hur Lodge #322, and Roger E. Sherman Lodge #369. I approved a modification ofthe dates that appear on the Masonic record of Billy Ray Hall, nowamember of a Texas lodge, so that he could be reinstated to his lodge in Texas and receive his 50-year pin. This was to correct an error in the entering of this information many years ago in our Grand Lodge office.

Annual Proceedings of The
March
I allowed Kevin Wayne Hoffman, an Entered Apprentice in Mystic Tie Lodge #74 in Augusta, to submit a petition to complete his degrees in Sunflower Lodge #86 in Wichita. This was allowed because of lack of response from the Secretary of Mystic Tie Lodge #74. I allowed Daniel E. Crockett, a dual member of Ottawa Lodge # 18 in Kansas and Arizona Lodge #2 in Phoenix to hold a third membership in Hiram Daylight Lodge #73 in Arizona. This was done because of his enthusiasm for Masonry and his desire to be an officer in Hiram Daylight Lodge #73. I allowed the Scottish Rite Bodies of Northeast Kansas to confer the Scottish Rite degrees on a Sunday afiemcon. This was done to accommodate Brothers who were unable to be present on any other day because of work schedules. 1 upheld the decision of M.-.W.-. Morris Fisher, Past Grand Master, to declare the degrees of James E. Pemberton as "null and void" in Wellsville Lodge #356. This was done originally by M.-.W.-.Brother Fisher when he was Grand Master, but due to complications, the subject had to be re-visited. 1 allowed the Master of Delaware Lodge #96 to change the stated meeting nights of the lodge on a trial basis. This was to find out if attendance would increase and allow the lodge the opportunity to try the new night before a change in their by-laws was voted upon. 1 declared the degiees as "null and void" on three men who attended a One Day Conferral in Wichita, Kansas. This was necessary because the men all had legal residence in Arkansas and the Kansas lodge failed to request a waiver of jurisdiction from the Grand Lodge of Arkansas. 1 declared the ballot "null and void" on two separate candidates and declared each "elected" to receive the degrees of Masonry. These two incidents occurred in Lafayette Lodge #16 and Edna Lodge #345. The assistance to the lodges was given at the request of the Masters of these respective lodges to correct an injustice in the balloting procedure. It was my interpretation that a commission of wrong was occurring and that prejudice was the reason for this injustice. 1 approved allowing Unity Lodge #273 to pursue the purchase of property adjoining the lodge hall property already owned by the lodge. If a purchase is to be made, they will again need to write to the appropriate Grand Lodge committee. 1 allowed the Moonlight Degree Team to travel to Phoenix, Arizona to perform degree work on a Kansas OR an Arizona candidate. This was issued at the special invitation of the Grand Lodge of Arizona. 1 issued a letter to all Kansas lodges that effectively "closed the borders" between Kansas and Missouri. This was done in support of the Grand Master of Missouri and because many Missouri residents were coming to Kansas to take Masonic degrees at the One Day Conferrals in Kansas. This letter was eventually rescinded and the "borders are now open" for all transactions with the exception of candidates coming to Kansas to receive degrees in any method other that the traditional manner. I believe that I have made every decision with the best interest of our Fraternity in mind. Respectfully submined, Jeffrey L. Sowder Grand Master FOREIGN RELA TIONS REPORT To The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of KANSAS The Report of the Fratemal Relations Committee January 1998 Our appreciation to our Grand Master and the Grand Lodge officers for this appointment and to the Office Staff of the Grand Lodge for their aid and assistance in providing us with copies of the correspondence from our Sister Grand Lodges. We submit the following report for your consideration: BRAZIL: There are at least 30 'Grand Lodges' in Brazil. Some of them extremely tiny with only two or three constituent lodges. They seem to be in constant rotation or change. Bahia: changed name to the Grande Loja Maconica do Estado da Bahia.

Roraima: We recommend the recognition of and exchange of representatives with the Grande Loja Maconica Do Estado De Roraima. Grand Orient of Brazil: Anticipates full acceptance by the Grand Master's Conference in 1998. We will keep on hold until our 1998 Grand Lodge. Rio de Janeriro- Sent a list of expelled Brothers who had questioned the authority of the Grand Master. UNITED GRAND LODGE OF ENGLAND In October the then Grand Secretary sent word that he had been released from his appointment but not of his choice. He had planned to continue until at least 2001. The United Grand Lodge now recognizes two Grand Lodges (mainstream and Prince Hall) within California, Colorado, Connecticut, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Ohio, Oregon Pennsylvania, Washington and Wisconsin as well as the Grand Lodge of Russia and of Madagascar. HAWAII: Grand Secretary was 'removed' and a new one appointed. ISRAEL: We congratulate Bro Woolf Kamor installed at the M.-. W.-. Grand Master. We commend Grand Lodge of the State of Israel for hosting a reception for the Grand Representatives of various Grand Lodges Abroad ard for publishing a booklet listing the historical background of and guidelines for Grand Representatatives. ITALY: Grand Orient of Italy which we recognize provided a program for the International Symposium "Freedom and Freemasonry in a Changing World" which they hosted November 1997. It seemed to our committee that this was an excellent idea. Regular Grand Lodge of Italy which we do not recognize has had serious problems between their Board of General Purposes and their Grand Master resulting in there being no Grand Master. The Grand Lodge of England which politically tied itself to the Regular Grand Lodge and cut the ties with the Grand Orient has tried to intervene. Actually, in oiu- opinion, the Grand Lodge of England has been self serving and not Fraternity serving in their relationships with both of these Grand Lodges. MEXICO: York Grand Lodge: Request for materials on One Day Classes Campeche: Listing a new address: We, as well as several other Grand lodges, do communicate with this Grand Lodge but they are not on the 'list' NETHERLANDS: The Grand Secretary was elected Grand Master and a provisional Grand Secretary was installed. NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR: This newly formed Grand Lodge was formed November 1,1997. It has received the recognition from all fomial sources and we recommend recognition of this Grand lodge and formal exchange of Grand Representatives. NORTH CAROLINA: An editorial in the North Carolina Mason points out the forward progress of their Grand Lodge in condemning racism and forbidding it within their Grand Jurisdiction and then starting to do mutual activiti es with the Prince Hall Masons and hopes for future full recognition. The statement "While the final answer to all questions of bigotry and hate will be in the heart and final judgment of each individual it is the job of leadership to point us in the correct direction. Oiu" leadership has finally taken on that responsibility.'" OREGON: The Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Oregon has voted to Grant Full recognition including privileges of visitation and affiliation to the Grand Lodge A.F.&A.M. of KANSAS . This resolution will be in full force and effective after the Grand Lodge of Kansas has adopted a similar resolution. We recommend no action on this matter until we have come to full compact with the Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Kansas concerning visitation affiliation and other points to ponder. PORTUGAL: An attempted takeover of the Grand Lodge has occupied most of the energy and life of Masons in Portugal for this past year. The takeover did not succeed and the Grand Lodge is gradiially recovering. PRINCE HALL GRAND LODGE OF KANSAS: The Grand Master and the Grand lodge Officers are in the process of working out a Compact with F. & A M. of KANSAS PRINCE HALL AFFILLIATION. At the time of this writing (Janimry 9, 1997) that Compact is still in process but a meeting planned for January 17, 1998 between the two sets of Grand Lodge Officers may produce a document to be presented at this Grand Lodge Session. As of November 1997 the M.S.A. announced the following: States who recognize Prince Hall are ALASKA, ARIZONA, CALIFORNIA, COLORADO. CONNECTICUT HAWAII, IDAHO, ILLINOIS, KANSAS, MAINE, MASSACHUSETTS, MICHIGAN, MINNESOTA

This year the Grand Lodge of Kansas had but one assignment for the activity committee and that was to get Masonry out in front of the public. This was done by continuing the yearly Masons family night at the Kansas City Royals. This was the fourth year of this event and has always been a great success. The Grand Master, Most Worshipfiil Jeffrey L. Sowder. this year as in past years, when other Grand Masters threw out the first ball, was the person on the pitchers mound to throw out the first ball. As in the past there has always been a special person to catch the first ball, and this year was no different, the catcher this year was a young man of 16 years. Matt McNitt, the son of the Master of Woodson Lodge #121 in the town of Toronto. While all of this activity was going on, some good words about Masonry and how Kansas Masonry got started and what are charities are was being said over the public address system and shown on the on the large screens in the outfield. When the National Anthem was sung the Masonic color guard were on the field in fiill Masonic dress, Burgimdy jackets and black slacks with Grand Lodge apron and jewels. Our National Anthem was sung by Worshipftil Mark E. Nelson,Grand Senior Deacon, from St. John's Lodge #113 in Concordia, Ks. The Grand Lodge color guard were. Worshipful Victor J. Olsen, Grand Flag bearer from Corinthian Lodge #79 in Burlingame, and Dwight Lodge #374 in Dwight, Ks., carrying the American Flag, accompany him were, Worshipful N.

Each of the issues contained eight pages except the October issue which was 12 pages. The Kansas Mason was instituted by PGM Ben Gray bill in 1961. I have been the editor for the past three years. Thanks to the many secretaries and members we are now receiving more stories than ever. I thank Most Worshipful Sowder for this singular honor. Glenn R. German, Editor THE KANSAS MASON RITUALISTIC COMMITTEE To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: The committee met in Wichita on August 8, 1997 immediately proceeding the Annual Grand Lecturers meeting August 9, 1997 at Clearwater, Ks. The Chairman reported that several Districts had requested to combine their meetings into one meeting. The Committee then determined that other meetings would also be combined. The Secretary was instructed to notify the District Deputies involved. A total of six (6) combined meetings were scheduled. The format for the District Meetings was decided upon and the Lecturer assignments made. Each Lecturer was assigned to three Meetings. With only two exceptions all assignments were made within same day driving distance from the Lecturer's home. This eliminated overnight lodgings and provided a saving to the Grand Lodge Budget. All members of the committee agreed that a recommendation be sent to the Grand Master that R.-.W.-. Russell Schwilling and R.-.W.-. Ronald Atkins be granted Emeritus status. A school for the Grand Lecturers was held at Unity Lodge 273 in Clearwater, Ks on August 9, 1997. The Ritual and Floor Plans were carefully studied and reviewed.

The outstanding and unusual feature was the reception of two York Rite Collars and Jewels from Companion David Sage in Essex England. Companion Sage has been elevated to a higher level of York Rite Masonry and contributed his collars to the Kansas Grand Lodge for preservation. The Green collar with jewel denotes Allied Division Rank, and the Crimson Collar with jewel denotes Cryptic Divisional Rank. They will be placed in the museiun next year. My thanks to Most Worshipful Sowder for allowing me to be the Chairman of the Grand Lodge Library Committee. Charles Baldry COMMmEE

Arranged meeting with radio and newspaper were well received. In addition, our Grand Master made personal interviews and appearances when requested. In conclusion, the Grand Masonic Order was well received by the urban/rural brothers and friends and an enthusiastic effort to provide support to the needs of the community was established. OPERATION "KAN" A few years ago a gentlemen from Iowa fell on a chain saw, cutting off an arm and damaging his face. Plastic surgeons were able to repair his face. A few months after the accident he asked me about getting an artificial arm. I took a few moments to think about what I had gone through, then gave him this reply: "Get one, you will not satisified until you have tried one, but you will not wear it." A few years later we were visiting and he made this remark: " You were right." I'm glad that I was honest with him, he is an active Lay-Minister. Fraternally Submitted, Glenn L.

Informative sessions were held in several of the areas and the response was positive. Hopefully this effort will continue. I wish to Thank M.-. W.-. Jeffery L. Sowder, Grand Master, The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Kansas and the KS. Masonic Univ./KS Masonic Educ. Committee for their continued support. Having served this cormnittee for 5 years it is time to step down. Thank you My Brothers. Respectfully, Sincerely, and Fraternally, Paul A. Lockwood, Chairman CORRESPONDENCE COMMITTEE It is the sad duty of this Committee, on behalf of the Grand Master, to reply to those Grand Jurisdictions who during the past year have reported deaths of their Grand Masters or Past Grand Masters. To this date 23 of these distinguished brethren have laid down their Working tools and transferred their membership to that Grand Lodge above. It was my original intent to individualize each reply. However, in reviewing these responses I find myself getting quite repetitive. I also discovered that there are just so many ways you can extend condolences and sympathy. Once again on behalf of M.-.W.-. Jeffrey Sowder and the Grand Jurisdiction of Kansas, I extend to the immediate families of these distinguished leaders, to their Grand Masters and to their Grand Jurisdictions our most sincere sympathy. One sitting Grand Master made the transition from time to eternity this past year. M.-.W.-. Sever Freniu of Romania. Funeral services were held at the Belu Catholic Cemetery in Bucharest on Thursday, November 13, 1997 at 2:00 PM. Brother Freniu was an instrumental figure in the establishment of regular Freemasonry in Romania, and his continued efforts and determination on the international front earned him the respect of many Grand Masters throughout the world. His loss will be felt for many years to come. The brethren of Romania owe it to his memory to continue building upon the foundations which he laid. Besides his remarkable Masonic accomplishments, Brother Freniu was an avid fighter for democratic values and human rights. The entire Country of Romania will sorely miss him. On March 21,1997, the Grand Lodge of Vermont announced the accidental deaths of M.-. W.-. Raymond F. Sutton and his wife Mary, on March 17th, M.-.W.-. Sutton served the Grand Lodge of Vermont as Grand Master in 198788. M.-.W.. Brother Sutton was quite active in Scottish Rite Masonry and was coroneted a 33-degree Honorary member of the Supreme Council of the Northern Jurisdiction on September 25,1990.

Without fail all were successful in their chosen professions, the judicial, law, medicine, engineering, industry and merchandizing.

CHARTERED LODGES ^ LODGES UNDER DISPENSATION
& TEMPLE BUILDING AND REMODELING To the M-W.-Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas; The committee had one communication relative to Temple Building and Remodeling which is as follows: June 5, 1997, Ridgeway Lodge No. 62, Overbrook, Kansas, requested approval to build a new Lodge and Community building as a community Project with donations from Lodge members and the community. The Overbrook Fair Board would own the building and ground and the Lodge would have a long term or perpetual lease.

Addendum to Report of Chartered Lodges & Lodges Under Dispensation & Temple Building & Remodeling The committee had one additional communication relative to Temple Building and Remodeling since our report was submitted on January 15, 1998, for the Advance Reports. January 23,1998, Unity Lodge No. 273, Clearwater, Kansas, informed this committee that they were considering the purchase of some property to the west of the Lodge building for a parking lot. The committee recomended to the Grand Master that Unity Lodge No. 273 be permitted to proceed with this project and they notify the Grand Lodge, through this committee, of the fmal disposition. Grand Master approved on January 28, 1998 Fraternally submitted, R.-.W.-. Martin M. Donaldson, Chairman REPORT OF THE PA TRIOTISM COMMITTER To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: In 1997 the committee took part in seven Masonic activities, with an audience of more than 2,000 Masons and members of Masonic Appendant Bodies, their families and friends. We were proud to be invited to post the Colors at the opening ceremonies of the Grand Lodge Annual Communication on March 21. Our other activites included posting the Colors at Lodge, and Scottish Rite fianctions, as well as our "Building The Flag" and "Folding The Flag" programs. We have also shown some video tapes on patriotic themes which have been extremely well received. In addition to our Masonic activities, the committee presented programs at 15 non-Masonic ftmctions. They were viewed by audiences totalling more than 2,200 persons. These programs were presented to schools, churches, fraternal, civic and youth groups. We are still gratified by the response we get from school and scouting groups, and feel the programs have a very positive influence on our young audiences, both from a patriotic and fraternal point of view. We are still told that we have introduced many in our audience to material they had never previously learned about the origins of our country and our flag. One of our primary concerns at this time is the lack of knowledge of the Pledge of Allegiance among students in the public school system. Again, we urge each Lodge to establish a Patriotism Committee and an ongoing Patriotic program. The committee will assist in preparing such a program on request. Fraternally submitted, Donald S. Nisbett, Chairman Albert O. Arnold, Jr. Delbert Berry Gerald Butcher REPORT OF THE CHURCH^LODGE RELA TIONS COMMITTEE We have heard our Grand Master say this year that Masonry in Kansas is "alive and well" and we heartily agree with him. Many of our Lodges have made gains in membership this year. But there are those in our society who, for whatever reason, choose to attack Masonry. These attacks are generally based upon insufficient knowledge, ignorance, bias, or just plain lies. We are aware of the admonition to the Entered Apprentice in his Charge that "neither are you to suffer your zeal for the institution to lead you into argument with those who through ignorance, may ridicule it." This good advice prevents us from two possible problems: involving ourselves in arguments when we may not haveftiUknowledge of the subject and thereby making ourselves more vulnerable, and, to avoid the strong possibility of emotionality which creates more heat than light. We suggest that each
1997-1998
Grand Lodge of Kansas
101
lodge become more involved in activities in our Communities with works which will speak for themselves by benefitting others. We agree with the motto. "Actions speak Louder than words" thereby avoiding both of the abovementioned possibilities, and at the same time, providing new possibilities for good men to identify with and perhaps becoming Masons. We again suggest that in performing a most important function which involves our communities by presenting the graveside lectures at funerals, we do so in the best way possible, preferably from memory. It also provides the opportunity to work with clergy in preparing for the service. We have among us, those whose first acquaintance with Masonry was at a Masonic funeral, and were impressed. We suggest that each Lodge take advantage of every opportunity to work with your local churches. St. John's days, funerals. Masonic groups meeting in your communities on Sundays, and such other opportunities to attend as a group, can all be of benefit. We recommend for the reading of lodges and brother Masons the book entitled "A Pilgrim's Path" by Brother John J. Robinson. We believe you will find it appropriate not only for Church-Lodge relations, but as a source of further Light. PUBLIC SCHOOLS/TOTAL YOUTH COMMITTEE All standing committees of the Grand Lodge are required to submit a report for the annual communication. The law further states this committee shall guide and advise the Grand Lodge in supporting and strengthening the free public school system and develop programs for that purpose. It is also charged with the responsibility to encourage and support the work of the DeMolay, Order of Rainbow for Girls and Job's Daughters as well as supervise and promote the Grand Lodge Essay Contest, In compliance we submit the following: The Public School/Total Youth Committee conducted the statewide Public School Scholarship Essay Contest for junior and senior high school students. We received 93 essays from the local lodges who sent their winning essay, from the locally sponsored contest, to be judged on the state level. The 1997 Scholarship Fund allocated $5,000 from Grand Lodge. It was divided as follows: 1 St prize $2,000 2nd prize 1,500 3rd prize 1.000 4th prize 500 Three honorable mention. The topic for the 1997 Public School Essay Contest was, "How will computers affect your education by the year 2000?" The winners of the contest were: First place Eric Moon - Corinthian Lodge #79 - Burlingame KS Second place Julie Johnson - Ancient Form Lodge #34 - Shawnee KS Third place Alisha S. Heyen - St Bernard Lodge #222 - Dodge City KS Fourth place Sheila Smith - Naphtali Lodge #310 - Almena KS Three Honorable Mention - Renae Finley - Winfield Lodge #110-Winfield KS Diana Salmon - Ensign Lodge #413-Ensign KS Kristan Hammond - Neosho Lodge #27-LeRoy KS The contest judges were Royal B. Brown, Eldon Thomasson, and Robert L. Tomlinson, JR. In behalf of the Free Public Education section of our committee we sent letters to each local lodge and furnished suggestions for programs for the month of February to honor American Heritage Month of Grand Lodge. The committee has endeavored to support the three youth organizations of the state as well as the local groups. Some members of our committee have attended each state meeting and visited several local groups. On Saturday, May 9, 1997 the Total Youth/Committee met with slate youth leaders and members of DeMolay, Rainbow, and Job's Daughters to discuss ways to assist and support each other. Because this committee is composed of active Masons, working In many Masonic organization, their church, and community organizations we feel time has not given us the opportunity to visit the youth organizations like we have desired. RECOMMENDATIONS: We conclude our report by again encouraging the Masons and their lodges to do all they can for the progress and good of our youth groups. They are the fiature of Masonry. Support them in all their activities, membership

drives and attend their meetings. Use them for your lodge programs. We mitst include them in our Masonic family as part of a unified family. To support the youth in accordance to the above recommendation, the corrmiittee recommends the Total Youth Committee be a separate committee devoted strictly to the youth. We recommend the Total Youth be separated from the Public School Committee. The committee again recommends the Scholarship Fimd be increased to six thousand dollars, thereby giving more scholarships to deserving students. Respectfully submitted, Conrad F.

REPORT OF THE COUNCII. OF ADMINISTRATION To the M.-.W.. Grand Lodge of AF&AM of Kansas: The Council of Administration held a meeting on March 22, 1997 at which Jeffrey L. Sowder was elected President, T. Michael Fegan Vice President and Stanley D. Browning Secretary for the ensuing year. Additional meetings of the Council were held on April 12, May 31, July 26, August 26, September 20, November 8 and December 13, 1997 and February 5, 1998. Some of the highlights of the several meetings of the Council were as follows: The Grand Lodge Endowment Fund was formally incorporated with the state of Kansas and a set of By-Laws adopted. The 49 districts of the Grand Lodge were reorganized and the number reduced to 42. Two informal meetings were held with the Prince Hall Grand Lodge of F&AM of Kansas. These meetings were cordial and harmony prevailed. The meetings resulted in the drafting of a 'Compact" between the two Grand Lodges recognizing each as a separate but equal entity in the state of Kansas. The Compact was signed by M.-. W.-. Jeffrey L. Sowder, Grand Master of AF&AM of Kansas and M..W.-. Roy Althouse, Grand Master of F&AM of Kansas. The two Grand Masters will present the Compact to their respective Grand Lodges for ratification. These meetings were the first ever between these two Grand Lodges. Major repairs to the Grand Lodge building was discussed on numerous occasions and it was determined that some action must be taken in the near future to maintain the building in good repair.

All meetings of the Council were cordial and harmony prevailed at all times as the members of the Council labored together in unity Fraternally Submitted. Stanley D. Browning, Grand Junior Warden Secretary for the Council of Administration NECROLOGY To the M-W.-. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas Most Worshipful Sir: For this opportunity and challenge to be a builder, I give you Thanks. The pleasure and rewards have far exceeded all expectations. M..W.. Sir, Our Grand Secretary has received the roll of the Workman, and on roll call 1261 of distinguished Labors entered into that eternal house not made with hands there to receive their highest tribute-that of being in audience with The Supreme Architect of the Universe. Selecting appropriate words and structuring them into meaningful and comforting sentences and phrases in which not only to pay proper respect to, but to demonstrate our sincere Love and appreciation of their many talents in the promotion of this great fraternity of Masons. Regardless of where we call home, regardless of how we are accepted by others, regardless of our sensitivity to the down trodden and regardless to our established belief in our ovm private "Deity". Yet with all standing virtues we have those same umelenting traits that binds us into a society that we know not how to properly {if there be that way} address and accept loss. It has never been or will it ever become easy to experience or to adjust to loss. For we are bonded together by that common denominator "Love", and in the midst of our search for that perfect comfort we are like falling leaves in an autumn breeze, and find ourselves challenging those designs inscribed on that Trestle Board; yet while stumbling through this veil of tears we are often reminded that sometimes remembering is the only way to heal. All of our lives have been troubled by loss and some of it in a very personal relationship. Yet while sifting through those sands in the hour glass of life we find the footprints of our Brothers who were the inestimable "Builders" of our yesterdays, our today's and our tomorrows, giving of themselves unselfishly for those monumental gifts that we have inheirited which will forever be in remembrance of them. For they labored not for glory but for living buildings which encloses our thoughts, words and actions. For they knew there is a tomorrow and a beginning and though those doors may be closed-windows will be opened and a new Light will shine in. There is always some degree of confiasion in our Lodges and our lives when the working tools of a builder have been laid to rest, so let us be in remembrance of our Great and Dedicated Leader M.-.W.-. S. Allan Daugherty PGM who was not only a Great man and a Great Mason, but the greatest tribute of all comes in saying "A GREAT FRIEND". Once again shadows seem to surround us and darkness forms a canopy in our Temple. And the working tools of a life are laid silent, and the Designs upon that Trestle Board are now but a memory. So should it be with our dignity and Respect for a beloved Leader, Mason and Friend-M.-. W.-. Morris Fisher PGM who left us with His legacy to fulfill. That whenever doors are shut in our lives, God will open windowS""And there shall be Light." So the long and challenging journey has come to an end, and the final chapter is being read-and a legacy has been left-yet while thumbing through those pages of time, we cannot without some reservations as to what the next page may hold in store. We anxiously and curiously anticipate new and glorious horizons-not only for us to challenge but to accept-not to destroy but to build, not to hide those ideas but to strenghthen their ideals. Not to diminish in darkness but to cast shadows in Light. So let us not erect monuments of only the past but to dedicate our purpose for the future.

Farewell to those who have climbed that high mountain and have found their rest. You have inscribed upon our lives the greatest of treasures-"Memories, and to those who have experienced their loss, may we with profound sincerity say "THANKS" for sharing your Mason. For this has surely made our cup runneth over. To you our dedicated and departed Craftsmen, you truly are "The Wind Beneath Our Wings" which has kept our inspirations untamished and our visions and vitality challenging. Fraternally Submitted, Damon Grimes REPORT OF THE GRAND SECRETARY To the M W.-. Grand Lodge of AF&AM of Kansas: Another year has passed and we are still busy doing the things we like to do, working for the good of Masonry. We still have the same staff as we did last year and they are all doing outstanding work in their various assignments. Brother Charles Hoffmeister still picks up after everyone and keeps the whole building looking great. After all of this he still pitches in and helps wherever needed. The Grand Master and 1 have signed over 1,500 fifty year certificates along with several sixty and seventy year certificates. The crown jewel is there were twelve seventy five year certificates and we had to order more pins. This goes to show that we are getting older and we need more young men to take our place. As of the printing of this report we have 1,161 new members for the year and a loss of 2,601 members for a net loss of 1,039. We have a total membership of 40,739. Fraternally submitted, Don E.

GRAND MASTER'S ACCEPTANCE SPEECH I would like to first begin by expressing my sincere thanks to everyone on your attendance at our 143rd Annual Installation of the Grand Lodge Officers of Kansas. It is indeed the greatest honor that I could ever receive to have the opportunity to serve as Grand Master of Masons in Kansas and to have each of you present today. 1 will sincerely endeavor to serve the laudable undertakings of this great fraternity to the best of my ability with the help of the Grand Architect of the Universe. A very special thanks to M.-.W.-. E. Dean Osbom and all the other distinguished Past Grand Masters and Worshipfiil brothers for the outstanding performance that they did with the Installation Ceremony. 1 can only begin to imagine all the work that goes into the planning and preparation of this Installation and I do truly appreciate all your efforts. Most especially to M.-.W.-. E. Dean 1 wish to thank you very much for giving me the opportimity of a lifetime, selecting me as your Grand Senior Deacon. You have bestowed the greatest honor I could ever hope to receive. I only hope that I can be deserving of your confidence. I also would like to extend a very hearty congratulations to M.-.W.-. Brother Jeffrey L. Sowder on a very successftjl year as Grand Master of Masons in Kansas. M.-.W.-. Jeff has worked extremely hard during his year as he has done throughout his Masonic career and the fruits of his labors are blossoming with abundance across this jurisdiction. Congratulations M.-.W.-. Jeff!! Job Well done!! We are going to continue to take advantage of his talents and leadership, one of my first acts as Grand Master of Masons in Kansas will be to appoint M.-.W.-. Jeff Sowder to the Board of Trustees of the Kansas Masonic Foundation. I would be remiss if I did not also recognize the Honor Guard from the Scottish Rite, the York Rite, and the Shrine for their assistance in the Installation ceremony. Your participation made this ceremony even more impressive and more memorable to me. The Area and District Deputies were commissioned. I shall not take lightly the responsibilities of the Office of Grand Master. Brethren, at each moment we are standing between the past and the future.

Annual Proceedings of The
March
One of my goals this year is that we strive to look to the new Millennium as one family of Masons. We can always best meet the challenges before us through a committed sense of fraternal "Unity in our Masonic Community". With our Symbolic Blue Lodges, Scottish and York Rite Bodies, the Shrine, our Youth Organizations (DeMolay, Job's Daughters and Rainbow Girls), and all the other appendance organizations laboring together in a sincere sense of the true spirit of what FreeMasonry represents, we can collectively make an important public statement about our aims, dreams, values and contributions. We can open the doors of opportunity for the whole fraternity in the 21 st Century. By working together to solve common problems, by focusing our efforts and talents on the few goals which are important to our progress, by speaking kindly of each other and reinforcing the good which is in appreciating ourselves, our heritage and our rightness in what we represent to the world, we can become a beacon for right thinking and right action in our own time. The worid listens to right example. My Brethren, let us maintain the proud affection we have for our traditions and heritage, but let us adapt ourselves to the reality of the rapid pace of tomorrow's society and the intense demands that this new era will place on ourselves, our family and community. If we are to grow, we must move with our times. We should never forget that Masonry is always in the process of achieving greamess. It is our legacy. We need only to decide how boldly we want to carry the torch from this generation to the next. By working as one family in Masonry, we can together achieve important goals of leadership development, membership development, community participation and family involvement; all of which are so important to our overall success. We know these things are essential in order to attract and keep members. And we have to include all of them in our efforts to be the total organization we can be. When we give our own time and talents to our favorite Masonic Body, when we do things to become better known in our communities, when we involve our families in a variety of fun activities, when we teach what the words of our rituals mean, when we take care of our brothers and sisters, we will indeed make a differenceâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;to ourselves, to others, and our world. My Brethren, tomorrow is the most important thing in life. The future is not a giftâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;it is an achievementâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;let's begin now to work together as one family of Masons so we can be together in Unity as we approach the new Millennium. Fraternal Unity in the Masonic Community. The Grand Master introduced his family. The Grand Master then introduced his Officers and asked them to introduce their families. The Grand Master then introduced his Grand Senior Deacon. M.-. W.-. Fegan thanked his Lodge, Union Lodge #7, for the support he has received. First Lady Lois was presented with the golden pendant of her office. M.-.W'. E. Dean Osbom presented the Grand Master with personal gifts of luggage tags, K-State stone, Gold Square and Compass, miniature suitcase card case, as well as a wooden desk set with the seal of the Grand Lodge of Kansas from the installing officers. Illustrious Carol Kelley presented the Grand Master's fez. Ken Hall, Master of Union #7, presented the Grand Master with an Altar Bible and top hat. From the Union Lodge #7 Junction City Shrine Club and JC Mini Wheels a gavel plaque. M.--W.-. Carveth K. Neer presented a Wood engraved box pen. The First Lady presented a new Stetson hat. The Grand Master's father and step-mother presented him with a briefcase. M-'.W.-. Jeffrey L. Sowder presented a gavel on behalf of M.-.W.-. Paul C. Bush, PGM of Arkansas. W.-.

MISSION (The reason we exist) The mission of Kansas Masonry is to provide for its members opportunities for personal growth through fellowship, education, and leadership experience; and the opportunity to give something back to his community. The mission outside of the Fraternity is to fulfill charitable needs, display positive family values and offer leadership to the community. By fulfiUing this mission, the Fraternity will grow and prosper as good men seek to join and remain associated with men of high principle and character, as taught by Freemasonry.

He was a member of Topeka High Twelve Club No. 17. Brother Radford passed away some time ago. In his will he left $10,000 in trust to Topeka High Twelve. When his Lady Goldie passed away that sum then passed to the High Twelve. The plaque noting these facts will be permanently affixed to the Temple building. The Grand Master called upon the GSE to further explain the use of this bequest. Brother Arnold explained these funds were placed in our Kansas Masonic Foundation and that only the accrued interest would be used.. There they are used to first reduce our High Twelve dues from $25.00 to 15.00. Secondly all eighty year olds are exempted from dues. As explained, this is a bit too early to make any claims, although there have already been increases. It is hoped this might be a pattern for other Masonic groups and small Lodges.

Later the family moved to Missouri where Ben went to Smith Cotton High School at Sedalia. He graduated from Park College of Parkville Missouri with a B.A. Degree in Mathematics. After college, our Grand Master worked at the Commerce Bank of Kansas City Missouri and the Brotherhood State Bank of Kansas City, Kansas. Next he states, "I went to work for the government." He served as a Lt. JG in the Amphibious Corps in the Pacific imtil the conclusion of World War 11.
/ For a while, Ben and his brother Bob, owned and operated a bowling alley in CofTeyville. In 1950 Bob returned to Kansas City and Ben entered into private business. At the present time he is Comptroller for Adventure Line Manufacturing Company of Parsons, Kansas. Most Worshipful Ben was elected to receive the degrees in Cornerstone Lodge No. 102 Coffeyville on January 5, 1966. He was initiated on January 7, 1966, passed on February 9, and raised to the sublime degree of a Master Mason on March 18, 1966. Records will show that he was installed as the Grand Master of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas almost 15 years later to the date. Our Grand Master served as District Deputy Grand Master ofthe 25th District in 1973 and 1974. Hewasamember of the Jurisprudence Committee in 1975, Grand Marshall in 1976, and Grand Senior Deacon in 1977. I

He is a member ofthe Methodist Church in Coffeyville, a life member ofthe VFW and a member ofthe American Legion. In 1950 Ben married Betty Doty. Their beautiful years of married life were severed in January of this year when Betty passes away after a lingering illness. The main interests of our newly installed Grand Master, outside of Masonry, are sports and reading. He's a raconteur of no small ability of sports stories and has a wealth of fact of history at his finger tips. Our Grand Master is a purely dedicated Mason, and Masonry under his tuteledge will travel far. But he admonished the craft in his address, "Although I am your new Grand Master, I can't carry the load by myself I'm dep)ending on each one of you to help make this a most memorable year in Kansas Masonry."

John has occupied a place of primary importance in the activity of every Craft Lodge NOW THEREFORE, I, T.

JOHN THE BAPTIST BY THE LODGES OF THIS JURISDICTION ON SUNDAY, JUNE 21, 1998, 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 festival day. It is understood that a church must first extent an invitation, and that the acceptance of this 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 Masons to join with Masonic Brethren and participate with their Lodge in the act of Divine Worship so rich in Masonic Tradition. As Grand Master, I will be attending services at Abdallah Shrine Temple, Overland Park, Kansas, where the complete program will take place. Grand Lodge will be opened at 8:00 am, and the service starts at 9:00 am. However, I am asking the officers of your Grand Lodge, Area Deputies, and District Deputies to open Grand Lodge in the Temples where requested. GIVEN UNDER THE HAND AND SEAL OF THE M.. W..

GRAND MASTER^S ADDRESS To our distinguished Most Worshipful Past Grand Masters, Right Worshipfuis, and Brethren of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas: It is with a great deal of pleasure and honor thai I welcome each of you to the One Hundred and Forty-third Annua! Communication of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas. 1 want to extend a special welcome to all of the distinguished visitors from other jurisdictions with thanks for taking time to share ideas and programs with the Brethren of Kansas, and we look forward to hearing from you during this session. A special salute to our Past Grand Masters. We are indeed honored by your presence and inspired by all you have contributed to this Grand Jurisdiction and by all you continue to do. Words alone cannot describe how "swiftly the sands of time flow". It seems like only yesterday I was sworn in as Grand Senior Deacon. Now we stand at the conclusion of a journey that transversed the state many times from St. Francis to Pittsburg and Hiawatha to Hugoton and points in between. I thank each and every one of the Brethren along the way for your outstanding support and dedication to the cause and ideals of Freemasonry that we have attempted to advance. You have made that joumey one that is filled with fond memories, inspiration, faith and hope. TTiis is indeed the highest honor! could ever hope to achieve, and from the bottom of my heart, I want to thank you for providing me this great privilege and allowing me the opportunity to serve this great Fraternity. SPECIAL DISPENSATIONS Even before I became Grand Master 1 felt very strongly that I wanted to be an enabler; that is, to help empower lodges and their officers across this jurisdiction with the ability to accomplish their respective endeavors for the best interest of Masonry. Having said that, I believe I have complied with every request for Special Dispensations that were properly submitted by the several lodges. In a changing society we need to adapt to those changes as we approach the new millennium. A complete listing of these Special Dispensations appears in the Advance Report. COUNCIL OF ADMINISTRATION From time to time, the Council of Administration met to consider the several concerns and, on some occasions, problems that confronted this jurisdiction. Open discussion as well as spirited debate often ensued. Al! decisions were made in "peace and harmony" with the best interests of the Craft and the future of Freemasonry at heart. I wish to thank R.. W.-. John E. Mowen, R.-.W.-. Stanley D. Browning, R.-.W.-. Mark E. Nelson, and W.-. Glenn E. Kohr for their support and wise counsel in the several decisions rendered during the year. GRAND LODGE STAFF The Grand Jurisdiction of Kansas is indeed blessed with an outstanding office staff They are all very competent and committed to providing the highest degree of professional and efficient service to our constituent lodges as well as to Grand Lodge. This office receives an enormous volume of requests daily for informational assistance and orders for supplies. All are handled in a most expeditious and efficient manner. I want to extend a special thanks to Jean E. Rader, Office Manager, Tanya L. Artzer, Administrative Assistant; and Jennifer D. Boize, Receptionist/Data Entry Clerk. They all have lightened my load and have been of great help throughout the year. You are sincerely appreciated. To Charles H. Hoffmeister, Building Services Manager, you have been a tremendous asset to the future of our Grand Lodge building and have shown your steadfast support of our Grand Lodge staff. To Ernest S. "Bud" Horton, Grand Lodge Printer, we extend many thanks for your long hours and meticulous attention to all the in-house print jobs you have completed for Grand Lodge over the past several years. Jean Rader, our Grand Lodge Office Manager, will be retiring in two weeks. We all want to thank her for all her many years of dedicated service to the Grand Lodge of Kansas. She is indeed a treasure and will be sincerely missed. May the Grand Architect be with her and Wayne in all their future travels. PAST GRAND MASTERS I would like to take this opportunity to extend my sincere appreciation and extreme respect to all our Past Grand Masters for extending so much dedicated service to this Grand Lodge. During my term of office as Grand Master they have been a constant source of inspiration and guidance in the several decisions that I have been required to consider. In the years to come I would certainly encourage all Grand Masters to recognize this valuable resource and take advantage of the Past Grand Masters' knowledge and wisdom.

I would like to give special thanks to M.-. W.-. E. Dean Osbom for providing me with the opportunity of a lifetime as he appointed me his Grand Senior Deacon. Thanks are due as well to M.-. W.-. Don E. Robinelt for all his support. Both of them gave me the benefit of their wisdom and their vast wealth of Masonic knowledge not only of Grand Lodge, but also of other appendant bodies as well. Early on in my administration I had mentioned that it was my hope and prayer that we would not lose any Past Grands during my term of office. However this was not to be, and it saddens me to say that M.-. W.-. Ben B. Boyles was called to the Grand Lodge above on February 12, 1999. Even though he was small of stature, his size did not mirror his accomplishments as Grand Master, and his passing leaves a huge void in Kansas Freemasonry. UNION LODGE NO. 7 I began my Masonic travels in Union Lodge No. 7, Junction City, Kansas. The lodge in which my family has been associated for three generations. I have had the honor and pleasure to enjoy a unique level of support from Union Lodge No. 7 from the time I was a junior officer to the time I served as Master and during my passage through the Grand Lodge line. At any time, whenever I requested their assistance, they were always ready, willing and able to provide the same. I would like to extend special recognition to my Worshipful Master, Kenneth L. Hall, and his lodge officers for their attentive support during my year as Grand Master. As I have noted on numerous occasions during my term as Grand Master, I acknowledge the fact that Union Lodge No. 7 in Junction City, Kansas, is the finest lodge of its size in this Grand Jurisdiction. AREA AND DISTRICT DEPUTY GRAND MASTERS To all Area and District Deputy Grand Masters: you are indeed the workhorses of this Grand Jurisdiction. You serve as the eyes and ears of the Grand Master in your several Areas and Districts, and you have completed your mission with great distinction. It is you who carry the Grand Master's message and programs to the lodges for implementation. It requires a willingness to take over extremely important and sometimes difficult positions in Grand Lodge, but guarantees the continued success of this Grand Jurisdiction through your responsible efforts. GRAND LODGE LECTURERS This Grand Jurisdiction will be forever indebted to the unique skill and knowledge of the Grand Lodge Lecturers and Assistant Grand lodge Lecturers who unselfishly give of their time and talent to maintain the highest level of ritualistic knowledge in the lodges across the state. While some have said that ritual is not the most important part of Freemasonry, it is indeed a huge part of the "glue" that holds the Fraternity together. Were it not for your unique ability to master our ritual, and transmit it unimpaired to others, our lodges may well lack the ability to transmit these "wise and serious truths" from one generation to the next. APPENDANT BODIES We have enjoyed a unique partnership with all our appendant organizations throughout our Masonic family that has allowed our Jurisdiction to continue to develop in a positive way with a clear view of the future. The spirit of unity in our Masonic community is indeed alive and well across the state. How good and pleasant this bond of fellowship is that connects our common ideals, concepts and traditional values. Throughout my travel this past year, I have been honored by the warm and hospitable reception I received at the many appendant functions, and I sincerely thank you for your kind and generous support. YOUTH ORDERS This jurisdiction is indeed blessed with some very outstanding youth participating in our several youth organizations. These young people in our DeMolay, Rainbow and Job's Daughters are some of the brightest and most talented individuals with which I have ever had the pleasure to be associated. As I have traveled around this state over the past few years, I was pleasantly impressed with the energy, enthusiasm and level of character exhibited in our youth orders. It would be appropriate to point out that JeffR. English, who served Kansas as State Master Councilor last year, is now serving as International Master Councilor. Jeff is also a member of Bestor G. Brown Lodge No. 433. I commend the adult leaders of these orders and encourage all of our lodges to support the very important mission of each of the outstanding youth organizations. The future of Freemasonry in Kansas, or wherever in the world, may well rest in our youth. By sponsoring one or more of these very positive youth organizations in your lodges we will be introducing a whole new generation of young people to what we have to offer.

RECOMMENDATIONS To the Grand Lodge I submit the following recommendations: 1.
Continued cooperation between the Rile Bodies. In particular, the Scottish Rite, York Rite, and Shrine. Perhaps a task force or committee could be formed to explore the idea of developing programs that are of mutual interest and benefit.
2.
Develop a plan to identify the needs of our members (present and fumre), and implement a plan to meet those needs.
3.
Continue the program for NPDs reinstating by paying only current year's dues and perhaps making this a permanent program.
4.
The Fees for Degrees (By-law 4-301) have not been adjusted since 1969 when the fees were changed from $45.00 to $50.00 and an adjustment, due to inflation, should be given some consideration. Consider raising the minimum petition fees to reflect the value of our degrees. We need to underscore and emphasize to initiates the value of our Fraternity.
5.
Consider having our Convention Chairman handle ALL aspects of the Annual Communication and expand this committee to assist him.
6.
For the Grand Master's car, explore new options; i.e., paying for mileage and the usual expenses on privately owned vehicles rather than buying a car. Leasing a car on a multi-year contract. Grand Lodge buying a car and using it for more than one year.
7.
Per Capita Tax. I believe that with the establishment of a cash management system in the Grand Lodge office we should consider retuming a portion of the Per Capita Tax to the lodges for their own self-improvement or use as they see fit, reducing the Per Capita Tax to be not more than $12.50 a member, the net effect being a return of $2.50 per member to each lodge. HIGHLIGHTS
I would like to draw particular attention to some of Grand Lodge's special achievements this past year, including the dedication ceremony of the Kenneth L. Caldwell Assisted Living Manor and Wellness Center setting the capstone to complete the continuum of care at the Kansas Masonic Home. We also conducted dedication ceremonies for the new home of Bestor G. Brown Lodge No. 433 lodge hall in Wichita, the new lodge hall for Pittsburg Lodge No. 187, in Pittsburg, dedicated the Masonic Memorial Monument in Hugoton Cemetery, Hugoton, Kansas, and the Old Oak Tree Park in Little River. Finally, and of preeminent Fraternal importance, we completed the formalization of the Prince Hall Compact thereby establishing visiting criteria between our jurisdictions. DISTINGUISHED SERVICE AWARDS I had the honor to present a Distinguished Service Award to two people who were both equally qualified: Clifford A. Johnson, Lindsborg Lodge No. 397, Lindsborg, and Robert George Frederick, Salina Lodge No. 60, Salina. At alt times, when they were called upon to perform any task, they both stood ready, willing and able to complete everything they were requested to do. I thank them very much. TO MY WIFE LOIS I owe a deep debt of gratitude to my wife Lois for the sacrifices she made during my progression through the Grand Lodge line. As her husband, and as Grand Master, I would like to recognize her willingness to take on, in addition to the heavy demands of her nursing career, the majority of the responsibility of our family life. Particularly since I was gone ninety per cent of the time. CONCLUSION In conclusion, I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely and fraternally thank the Craft for providing me the greatest opportunity of a lifetime. It will be an honor that I will forever cherish. Thank you, my brethren, for allowing me to serve Kansas Freemasonry. Like many other Grand Masters before me, it has been my hope and prayer that at the conclusion of my term as Grand Master I would leave the Craft and this great fraternity enriched by our collective efforts. I hope my endeavors have accomplished this goal to the benefit and best interest of Ancient Craft Masonry. Thank you. Fraternally submitted, T. Michael Fegan, Grand Master

FINANCE COMMITTEE To the Most Worshipftil Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: The members of the Finance Committee are glad to report that 1998 was a very good year for the Grand Lodge of Kansas. $587,763.00 for expenses, $687,145.00 for revenues resulting in a Surplus of $102,382.00 was budgeted for the fiscal year 1998. (January 1, 1998 through December 31, 1998). At the end of the fiscal year we had a Budget Surplus of approximately $225,000.00. Credit for the surplus of funds should go to the Grand Master, members of the Council of Administration and the Finance Committee for their efforts. Our Grand Master and his Coimcil of Administration made a dedicated effort to manage Grand Lodge expenses during 1998 to keep them well within budget limits. As a result we were able to make a significant addition to the Grand Lodge Endowment Fund, and once again roll over substantial ftinds to 1999's budget. Hopefully this begins a trend that will continue in future years. Cash Management and Investment decisions made in 1997 by the Most Worshipful Jeffrey L. Sowder and his Council of Administration resulted in significant improvement in the performance of Grand Lodge monetary assets during 1998. These improvements coupled with the budget performance of 1998 include an increase of over $240,000.00, and an increase in Grand Lodge Assets, an increase in over $20,000.00 in Grand Lodge Investment Income, an increase in Grand Lodge Financial Investments of approximately $239,000.00, and an increase in Grand Lodge Endowment Fund Assets of $132,560.00. During the year of 1998 the Finance Committee conferred with the Grand Lodge's licensed public accountant at which time the accounts of the Grand Lodge were reviewed and compared with the budget. Further, the Committee met quarterly with the Grand Master and the members of the Council of Administration to review revenues, expenses and investment performance to date and compared them with the projected budget amounts. The Committee also initiated monthly cash management reports for the Grand Master, Council of Administration and the Public Accountant. Additionally, the committee reviewed all investments of the Grand Lodge seeing that all coupons were collected and accrued interest reinvested or transferred to general funds as needed. A general survey of Grand Lodge property was made and determined to be in relatively satisfactory condition. The members of the Grand Lodge Finance Committee thank Most Worshipful Fegan for his leadership cooperation and assistance. We are most appreciative for the opportunity to serve the Grand Lodge of Kansas during 1998. Fraternally Submitted, Tom Griffith, Chairman Ray Hopson Victor Olson F. Warren Stams Moved and Seconded to accept. Motion passed. GRAND TREASURER'S REPORT To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas I am very pleased to report to the Craft that 1998 was an exceptionally good year financially for the Grand Lodge of Kansas. We had a total revenue of over $750,000.00, well above what was budgeted and the total operating expense was below the figures set forth in the budget. The fine work and dedication of the Council of Administration, the Finance Committee and the Office Personnel are the big reasons for the good year. Respectfully submitted, F. Warren Stams Grand Treasurer Moved and Seconded to accept. Motion carried.

Michael Fegan, Grand Master, Grand Lodge Finance Committee and the Council of Administration for the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas Topeka, Kansas Dear Sir: I have audited the statement of assets, liabilities and fund balances of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas as of December 31, 1998, and the related statements of revenues and expenses and changes in fund balances, and cash flow for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Grand Lodge Finance Committee and Council of Administration. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on m y audit. I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion. My audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying schedules arc presented as supplementary information and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied to the basic financial statements and, in my opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas at December 31, 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash flow for the year ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

GRAND SECRETARY'S REPORT To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: Another year has passed and we are still busy doing the things we Hke to do, worl^ing for the good of Masonry. We have added one to our staff as Brother Tom Hewitt was brought on board at the first of October. Tanya and Jennifer are still doing the excellent work that we have come to expect from them and they are a much appreciated asset to this office. When Jean retires on March 31, Tanya will be taking over as Office Manager. There will be a big adjustment to makeâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;for when you lose twenty plus years of experience from the staff it will be noticed. However 1 am confident we will still be in very capable hands. Brother Charles Hofimeister still takes care of all maintenance around the building and now has a new toy in that we installed a new boiler this year. After taking care of everything he still pitches in and helps out wherever needed. Ernest Horton still runs the printing press and does virtually all of our printing. The year 2000 is almost upon us and we are looking to change our data base soft ware and financial soft ware so we won't crash when that event happens. As of the printing of this report we have 1,465 new members for the year and a loss of 2,630 members for a net loss of 1,165. We have a total membership of 38,957. Fraternally submitted, Don E.

Called from refreshment to labor. R . W.-. John Mowen invited everyone to attend his reception. Jim Walker gave the Necrology Report. NECROLOGY To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas In preparing this necrology service 1 took time to go back through some of the old Grand lodge proceedings and read what others had presented in previous years. 1 don't think that you would want me to present some of the lengthy services, however 1 think you would find it very interesting some of the history that was presented. The most outstanding year that 1 came across was 1897. It was entitled "Memorial Service" and was 12 pages in length and presented by three Brothers. 1 suspect it took at least one hour to present. That is not to be with this service. As we come today to honor the 1,219 brethren who have gone before us to "That House Not Made With Hands Eternal In The Heavens" let us be reminded of each one of them and the many contributions that they made to their Nation, their Church, their family and to the Craft. Many may wonder what some of these Brothers gave because they may not have been in Lodge in the last 20 years or more. How could we make a statement against any of these Brothers when we don't know what each one has contributed? Some of the Brethren have been very visible in their Lodge, community, state or national life, and are very respected for their services rendered. Others may be almost invisible as far as the Lodge or community is concerned, but that does not mean they did not render any services or that they are any less important. Some people work in quiet ways that only The Great Architect of The Universe knows about. On March 14, 1998, just before Grand Lodge last year, a special communication of this Grand Lodge was held in Derby, Kansas for the purpose of attending the funeral of M.-.W.-. Morris L. Fisher, Past Grand Master 1995. MORRIS LEROY FISHER PGM 1995-1996 Morris L. Fisher, the 140th Grand Master of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas was bom October 27,1932 at Comstock, Custer Coimty, Nebraska. He moved to Wichita and went to work for the Boeing Airplane Co., served in the military and returned to Wichita and continued working for Boeing imtil 1970. In 1972 he started his insurance agency and was active managing it until his death March 1998. Morris's Masonic career began in 1964 when he was initiated into Derby Lodge #365 at Derby, Kansas. He served as Master ofthe Lodge in 1974, 1978, and 1989. He held a perpetual life membership in Derby Lodge. He served as District Deputy Grand Master of District #37 in 1985 and as Area Deputy Grand Master of Area Five in 1989 and 1990. He was appointed as Grand Senior Deacon of The Most Worshipfiil Grand Lodge of Kansas in 1991 by M.-.W.-. Conrad Johnson. Morris was intensely proud of our great Masonic Fratemity, often quoting that it is "the oldest, largest and certainly the most respected fraternal organization the world has ever knovm." He felt that Masonry and the great moral and ethical teachings it brings forth, is in greater need than ever before. That our greatest challenge of today was to attract good men and make them better men in the Fratemity as well as good leaders for the future. Morris was married to Irene Snyder in 1952 at Atwood, Kansas. From this marriage came three children, Michael, Steven and Cynthia and six grandchildren. Right Worshipful Mark Nelson Grand Junior Warden will now present its with a song titled "How Great Thou Art." In preparing for our closing I would like to present a poem that has a great deal to say. I would like to give credit to the person who wrote it, but 1 can't. 1 don't know who that person is. THE DASH I read of a man who stood to speak at the funeral of a friend. He referred to the.dates on her tombstone from the beginning to the end. He noted that first came the date of her birth
1997-1998

and spoke of the following date with tears, but he said what mattered most of all was the dash between those years. For that dash represents all the time that she spend alive on earth . . . And now only those who loved her know what that little line is worth. For it matters not, how much we own; the cars .. .the house .. .the cash. What matters is how we live and love and how we spend our dash. So think about this long and hard . . . Are there things you'd like to change? For you never know how much time is left. You could be at "dash mid range". If we could just slow down enough to consider what's true and real, and always try to understand the way other people feel, and be less quick to anger, and show appreciation more and love the people in our lives like we've never loved before. If we treat each other with respect, and more often wear a smile . . . Remembering that this special dash might only last a while. So, when your eulogy's being read with your life's actions to rehash . . . Would you be proud of the things they say about how you spent your dash. Grand Architect Of The Universe - Giver of all things, we give thanks unto you today as we gather here to pay tribute and homage to those of our Brethren who have gone to be with you. For we know that as they gather with you in that "House not made with hands" you will provide comfort for each of them. Allow us to remember the many things that each one gave and we enjoyed while we had the opportunity to fellowship with them. Bless each of them and their families, for they are sorely missed. We give thanks for the many blessings you have bestowed upon each of us this past year and look forward to serving you again this year. All these things we ask in your name. Amen. James Walker, Chairman Moved and seconded to accept. Carried. The ballot was declared closed. The Perpetual Life Membership Committee election, Max Bennett to replace Martin Donaldson, and Victor Olson re-elected. The Grand Master called for the Kansas Masonic Foundation Report. 1998 REPORT OF THE KANSAS MASONIC FOUNDATION, Inc. To the M..W.. Grand Lodge of AF&AM of Kansas: Thanks to generous support from Kansas Masons and their families, the Kansas Masonic Foundation, Inc., enjoyed a good year. The Foundation's newest project is speech pathology for stroke victims at Fort Hays State University. Also, the Foundation moved closer to meeting its $1 million commitment of supporting the Kansas Masonic Oncology Chair of Research at KU Medical Center. We also continued to promote several educational, charitable and scientific programs through the membership's generous contributions. The Foundation broadened its support to rural Kansans by forming a partnership with FHSU. The Foundation's Board of Directors approved a $50,000.00 grant to help support clinical instruction within the Department of Communication Disorders and its Hemdon Speech-Language-Hearing Clinic. The grant, renewable for an additional four years, will fund a clinical instructor position and a graduate assistantship, thus creating greater service opportunities by the Hemdon Clinic.

Moved and seconded to accept. Motion carried. The tellers gave the report of advancement. All Officers accepted the positions. The Grand Master called for the report of the Perpetual Life Membership Committee. PERPETUAL LIFE MEMBERSHIP To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: The Executive Council has been very active this year in managing the Plan. The Aimual Meeting and election ofOfficers was held at the Red Coach Inn in Salina on March 19, 1998. Wealso had Special Meetings on February 27,1998, May 21,1998, and August 25,1998, and a Special Telephone Meeting on December 18, 1998. At the Special Meeting on February 27, 1998, the Statement of Investment Policy was approved and the 1997 Annual audit of the records by the Executive Council was conducted. The Executive Council will conduct the 1998 annual audit in February 1999, after Grand Lode receives all the Armual Reports back from the Lodges. At the Special Meeting on August 25,1998, it was approved to designate Everen Securities, Inc. As the Investment Broker for all funds of the Perpetual Life Membership Plan Fimd, Inc. Charles W. McClain resigned on April 2,1998, and the Grand Master appointed Victor J. Olson to fill the position on April 28, 1998. In addition to a copy of the By-Laws being mailed to all Lodge Secretaries in January 1998, a letter with attached explanation of how the computer program works and a sample copy of the Armual Membership Report for all three types of membership was mailed to all Lodge Secretaries on April 6, 1998. The Executive Council wishes to address a question that has been raised concerning the operation of the Plan. The concern is that a Lodge would have no money to pay their monthly bills if all the members of the Lodge were Perpetual Life Members because no actual money is returned to the Lodge on Perpetual Life Members, only a credit against the per capita tax owed to Grand Lodge on the Annual Report. First, it is erroneous to believe that the Lodge would not receive any money if all the Lodge members were Perpetual Life Members. The fact is, if the net earnings for a Lodge exceed the total calculated per capita tax assessment for the Lodge, the difference will be returned to the Lodge by warrant along with the Annua! Report sent out by Grand Lodge. Second, under present circumstances it would be necessary for over 30% of the members of a Lodge to be Perpetiml Life Members before the net earnings for a Lodge would exceed the total per capita tax owed Grand Lodge. At this time, no Lodge is even close to having 30% of their members as Perpettial Life Members. Membership in the Plan has increased from November 1, 1997, through October 31,1998, by a total of 29 new members for a grand total of 266 members. These members represent 89 Lodges. From November 1, 1997, through October 31, 1998, net assets increased by $28,687.60, from $149,072.45 to $177,760.05. This increase is from new members fees and the increase in market value of the investments. The Executive Council would like for every Master Mason in Kansas to seriously consider becoming a Perpetual life Member which would not only help themselves but their Lodge as well. It has been a privilege to serve the Grand Lodge as members of the Executive Council of this Plan. Fraternally Submitted Martin Donaldson, Chairman Don E. Robinett, PGM, Grand Secretary F.

JURISPRUDENCE REPORT The report of the Committee on Jurisprudence is a condensed version of the most important and significant items addressed by the committee during the last year. Most matters considered by the committee are not of general interest to the Craft and are important only to the parties involved. Since our last Grand Lodge Annual Communication we have had one formal meeting of our committee. Most work of the committee has been handled by correspondence, telephone calls and discussion with members of the committee who responded orally or in writing. Report of the Secretary of the Council of Administration The committee has reviewed the report made by the Secretary of the Council of Administration. We find that no part of the report requires our comment or action. Most Worshipfiil Grand Master, I move that the report of the Secretary of the Council of Administration be approved. Rulings by our Grand Master The committee has reviewed the Rulings, Edicts, and Orders of our Most Worshipful Grand Master, T. Michael Fegan, as reported in the Advance Proceedings. It is our opinion that all of said rulings were within the powers and prerogatives of the Grand master and that they were issued with the best interests of the Craft in mind. I move that the Rulings, Edicts, and Orders of the Grand Master be approved. Proposed Amendment to the Laws of Kansas Masonry At the 1998 Annual Communication the Grand Lodge took action to amend Article XI, Sec. 7 of the Constitution to read as follows: ARTICLE XI, Sec. 7. Amendments to Constitution â&#x20AC;&#x201D; This Constitution or any Article or Section or any By-Law or any sub heading, may be amended, repealed or added thereto in the following manner: Every such proposition shall be submitted to the Grand Secretary's office by November 1. The proposition shall then be forwarded to the Committee on Jurisprudence for review as to its proper form. If then approved, the proposition will be mailed to all lodges by December 15 and will be printed in the Advanced Report for presentation at the Annual Communication. If approved by two-thirds majority at said Annual Communication, it will become law with the printing of the Annual Proceedings or 120 days after the Annual Communication whichever event comes first, at which time the Grand Secretary will have notified each constituent lodge, all Area Deputy Grand Masters, District Deputy Grand Masters, Grand Officers, all Past Grand Masters, and all Grand Lodge Committee Chairmen of all newly enacted legislation concerning this Constitution and By-Laws. The foregoing amendment of Article XI, Sec. 7 makes the following changes: 1.
Changes the date for submission of proposed amendments of the Constitution or By-laws to the Grand Secretary's office from January 15 to November 1.
2.
Deletes the provision that upon approval of the Committee on Jurisprudence as to proper form, "the proposifion shall then be forwarded to the Grand Master for his approval with a majority consent of the Coimcil of Administration, agreeing thereto."
3.
Adds the provision that "If then approved (by the Committee on Jurisprudence as to proper form) the proposition will be mailed to all lodges by December 15 and will be printed in the Advanced Report for Presentation at the Annual Communication."
4.
Deletes the provision that "If approved by two-thirds majority at said Annual Communication, the proposition will be placed in the hands of the Deputy Grand Master or his appointed representative, for discussion at the Area meetings."

Grand Lodge Committee Chairmen of all newly enacted legislation concerning this Constitution and ByLaws." Most Worshipful Grand Master, in order to place this proposal before the Grand Lodge for consideration, I move theadoptionof the amendment of Article XI, Sec. 7 of the Constitution as set forth in Proposition #1. Moved and seconded to put this amendment before the Grand Lodge. Motion carried. In addition, the following Resolution for communicating lost pass word in second and third degree is submitted by the Grand Secretary for your consideration. M.'.W.-. Don E. Robinelt was called to present this resolution. RESOLUTION FOR COMMUNICATING LOST PASS WORD IN SECOND AND THIRD DEGREE . Whereas all members present in the lodge have just been vouched for by the Deacons when they purge the lodge and someone forgets the pass word it is announced to all present by the Deacon involved when he says "The word is lost". Whereas this embarrasses and humiliates the brother involved when he has to be vouched for the second time and is conducted to the center of the lodge where he is given the word. Whereas this writer has on two occasions seen one member drop his membership because of this and another swore he would never attend lodge again and kept his word. It is not the intention of Masonry to embarrass any member at any time. Whereas the Ritualistic Committee generally agree this should be changed but feel they do not have the authority as it is in the ritual. Therefore be it resolved that from this day forward in the Grand Jurisdiction of Kansas when the pass word is lost in the second or third degree the deacon involved shall, ( 1 ) communicate the word without an alarm on the sideline and (2) collect the pass from the brother to be sure he has received it. All of this to be done quietly so as not to embarrass anyone. Be it further resolved that gummed inserts be produced to be placed in the extended ciphers, wording to be provided by the Ritualistic Committee to reflect this action. Moved and seconded to adopt the resolution. Discussion. Resolution Carried. Moved and seconded to accept the Report of the Jurisprudence Committee. Motion carried. Thomas C. Raum Jr, Chairman E. Dean Osbom Robert L. Tomlinson, Jr Called from Labor to Refreshment. Called from Refreshment to Labor. A moment of prayer for Brother Lou and Brother Dale, who were in an automobile accident, was held. M..W.. Don E. Robinett moved that the rest of the reports be approved as printed. Motion carried.

GRAND LODGE LIBRARY The Grand Lodge Library received two hard bound books during the year for library use. One entitled Masonry Defined and one entitled The History of Freemasomy in Virginia. The Library received a resolution of compact between the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Prince Hall, and the Most Worshipful Grand lodge of Kansas, recognizing and honoring each Grand Lodge. The Compact was dated January 17, 1998 and was signed in Manhattan, Kansas. A beautiful wooden gavel, constructed of two separate pieces of wood by a Master Craftsman, symbolized the unity consecrated into on the the two Grand Lodges. A beautiful wooden box contains the wooden gavel. A special area in the display cases in the Grand Lodge Museum will be prepared next year for this memborable exhibit. A Commandery sword belonging to Charles Jones, of Topeka Commandery No. 5 was presented to the Library in December 1998 by Mrs. Masel, the sister-in-law of Charles Jones. The Chairman thanks M.-.W.-. T. Michael Fegan for allowing him to be a part of the Grand Lodge Library. MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE To The M.'.W.-.Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas The Membership committee has continued to focus its efforts toward several aspects of membership this year, with the most popular still being the "Friends of Masons Night." We continue to find it to be the best tool, which a lodge can use to create not only a positive growth in membership, but also a positive and active atmosphere within the lodge. Several Masons across this Great State, who are dedicated and devoted to the advancement of Masonry, have given a great deal of their time to this cause. Plaiming is the key. The "Friends of Masons Night" can't and doesn't just happen on its own. It requires a little time, a little effort, and great amount of desire. Since my move and change of address during this past year, I have not received many applications or program reports and therefore caimot reflect any solid statistics or percentages. However, 1 am aware that there were programs scheduled and carried out with some success. A "Friends of Masons Night" plarming guide, along with several books and videos addressing membership management and membership development, may be obtained from the Grand Lodge office. As before, it is the consensus of the Membership Committee that all Lodges across the State diligently strive to find a method to increase their membership. If your lodge is interested in conducting a "Friends of Masons Night" I hope you will contact M-. W/. Jeffrey L. Sowder, PGM who is the 1999 Grand Lodge Membership Committee Chairman, or you may also contact the Grand Lodge office. A member of the committee will then contact you. The Membership Committee would like to thank Most Worshipful T. Michael Fegan for the opportunity to serve the Grand Lodge of Kansas. Respectfully and fraternally submitted, Mark E. Nelson Chairman PUBLIC INFORMATION/CONVENTION The importance of working with the Chamber of Commerce, media, Motels, and businesses in Salina in establishing a good working rapport will insure continued success in our fostering a brighter public image. Through the efforts of this committee, we have been able to open doors to the media and community which were not readily available and through these doors the image of the Grand Masonic Order and the mission to be accomplished once again becomes an important forerurmer in the public eye.

OPERATION "KAN" REACH OUT AND HELP SOMEONE We all have been given certain talents and abilities and sooner or later we will called on to use these GOD given gifts to help someone. I received a gift when I lost my arm. I'm able to communicate with the newly made amputee, to encourage them to lead a useftil and productive life. Whenever we see someone in need, what-ever the reasonâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;reach out and help. You will receive GOD'S BLESSING. Glenn L. Knapp, Chairman REPORT OF THE PATRIOTISM COMMITTEE To the M.'.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: In 1998 the committee took part in six Masonic activities, with an audience of more than 1,200 Masons and members of Masonic Appendant Bodies, their families and friends. We were proud to be invited to post the Colors at the opening ceremonies of the Grand Lodge Annual Communication on March 21. Our other activities included posting the Colors at Lodge, and Scottish Rite functions, as well as our "Building The Flag" and "Folding The Flag" programs. We have also shown some video tapes on patriotic themes which have been extremely well received. In addition to our Masonic activities, the committee presented programs at 27 non-Masonic functions. They were viewed by audiences totaling more than 2,200 persons. These programs were presented to schools, churches, fraternal, civic and youth groups. We are still gratified by the response we get from school and scouting groups, and feel4the programs have a very positive influence on our young audiences, both from a patriotic and fraternal point of view. We are still told that we have introduced many in our audience to material they had never previously learned about the origins of our country and our flag. A continuing area of concern at this time is the lack of knowledge of the Pledge of Allegiance among students in the public school system. It seems to vary from one school to another, with students either knowing exactly what to do and how to do it or indicating that they never heard of it. Again, we urge each Lodge to establish a Patriotism Committee and an ongoing Patriotic program. The committee will assist in preparing such a program on request. Fraternally submitted, Donald S. Nisbett, Chairman Albert O. Arnold, Jr. JCPoe CHURCH-LODGE RELATIONS We hope that there have been no problems in our Grand Jurisdiction between the churches and the lodges. Traditionally, when problems have arisen, they have stemmed from the conduct of funerals or from misunderstandings on the part of churches as to what the Masonic fraternity is all about. We all know there should be no conflict between the chiwches aind the Masonic fralemity. Since the problems which do arise are usually based upon misunderstandings or ignorance, we need to make ourselves more knowledgable about Masonry so that we can speak with assurance about it. With the "all the way in one day" classes, we need to spend some valuable time with instruction in our lodges so that our new Brothers may be provided with the information necessary to become knowledgeable Masons. We will all agree that a good Mason's actions speak much louder that words. Such actions should help to dispel some of the questions which arise about Masonry. For those who have not read the book, A Pilgrim's Path by John J. Robinson, we suggest that you will profit from it. It will help you to see what some of the sources of misunderstanding between our fraternity and the churches are. We encoiu^age each Mason to spend some serious time in the study of our gentle Craft.

On behalf of my committee and their wives: Dee Ward & ReJean, T. F. Edmonds & IdaMae, Bill Mansfield & Reolla, Jim Walker & Lucy and my wife Jolene I would like to thank you for this honor. It is the duty of this committee to make each and everyones visit to Grand Lodge pleasant and socialable. We hope we have succeeded in this duty. Fraternally submitted for my entire committee. Larry C. Reeder REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON TRIALS AND PUNISHMENT To the M.:W.: Grand Lodge ofA.F.& A.M. of Kansas: During the past year, the committee received charges against seven Brothers as follows: ONE Charge against a Master Mason for being in violation of Article XI, Sec. 4 of the Constitution "By disregarding his Obligation and the Established usage of the Fraternity" and By-Law 5-104 "Which may consist of the commission of any act derogatory to the reputation of Masonry". This case was dismissed due to the untimely demise of the principal origin of contention. TWO and THREE Charges against two Master Masons for "acts derogatory to the reputation of Masonry". These two cases were personally handled by our Grand Master. He summoned the two antagonists to his office in the Grand Lodge building and there firmly, professionally, and diplomatically gave them the dressing down of their life and extracted a solemn promise from each that their future conduct would be a credit to the Fraternity. They have apologized to all parties concerned and, as of this date, the honor of their integrity seems to be firmly established. FOUR Charge against a Master Mason for being in violation of By-Law 5-104 "the commission of any act derogatory to the reputation of Masonry". This charge was prompted by a conviction of aggravated indecent solicitation of a child. A level 6 felony. The accused entered a plea of Nolo Contendere and was expelled. FIVE Charge against a Master Mason for being in violation of By-Law 5-104 "the commission of any act derogatory to the reputation of Masonry". This charge was prompted by a conviction of non-residence burglary, a level 7 nonperson felony and embezzlement in excess of $8,000.00, a level 9 non-person felony. The accused entered a plea of guilty and was expelled. SIX Charge against an Entered Apprentice for being in violation of By-Law 5-104 "the commission of any act derogatory to the reputation of Masonry". This charge was prompted by a conviction of criminal threat. A severity level 9 person felony. Masonic litigation is pending. SEVEN Charge against a Master Mason for being in violation of By-Law 5-104 "the commission of any act derogatory to the reputation of Masonry". This charge was prompted by convictions of sales of controlled substances, a severity level 8 non-person felony, sale of marijuana drug, a severity level 3 non-person felony, and sale of marijuana, a severity level 3 drug felony. Masonic litigation is pending. The committee is pleased to be of service to our Grand Master and to our Grand Lodge. Frankly the committee would be even more pleased if there were no violations of our Masonic Code. Fratemally submitted, E. Dean Osbom, Chairman Oren Patterson J. Steven Molstad

PUBLIC SCHOOL/TOTAL YOUTH All standing committees of the Grand Lodge are required to submit a report for the annual communication. The law further states this committee shall guide and advise the Grand Lodge in supporting and strengthening the free public school system and develop programs for that purpose. It is also charged with the responsibility to encourage and support the work of the DeMolay, Order of Rainbow for Girls and Job's Daughters as well as supervise and promote the Grand Lodge Essay Contest. In compliance we submit the following: The Public School/Total Youth Committee conducted the statewide Public School Scholarship Essay Contest for junior and senior high students. We received essays from the local lodges who sent their wiiming essay, from the locally sponsored contest, to be judged on the state level. The 1998 Scholarship Fund was allocated $5,000 from Grand Lodge. It was divided as follows: 1st prize $2,000 2nd prize $1,500 3rd prize $1,000 4th prize $ 500 Three honorable mention The topic for the 1998 Public School Essay Contest was, "Should the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution Be Changed?". The wirmers of the contest were; First Place Second Place Third Place Fourth Place Honorable Mention

The judges were Royal B. Brown, Eldon Thomasson, Robert L. Tomlinson Jr. In behalf of the Free Public Education section of our committee we sent letters to each local lodge and fiunished suggestions for programs for the month of February to honor American Heritage Month of the Grand Lodge. The committee has endeavored to support the threee youth organizations of the state as well as the local groups. Some members of our committee have attended each state meeting and visited several local groups. Because this committee is composed of active Masons, working in many Masonic organizations, their church, and conununity organizations, we feel time has not given us the opportunity to visit the youth organizations as we would have desired. RECOMMENDATIONS We conclude oiu- report by again encouraging the Masons and their lodges to do all they can for the progress and good of our youth groups. They are the future of Masonry. Support them in all their activities, membership drives, and attend their meetings. Use them foryora lodge programs. We must include them in oiu' Masonic family as part of a unified family. To support the youth in accordance as per the above recommendation, the committee strongly recommends the one committee, i.e.. Public Schools/Total Youth Committee be separated into two individual working committees. The committee further reconmiends the Scholarship Fund be increased to six thousand dollars, thereby giving more scholarships to deserving students. Respectfully submitted. Public School/Total Youth Committee 1999 Topic for Essays: "The Internet - a necessity or luxury in the Public School Classroom?"

RITUALISTIC COMMITTEE To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas The committee met in Wichita August 14, 1998 immediately preceeding the annual Grand Lectiu-er's Meeting, August 1998 at the Masonic Home Lodge in Wichita. The format for the District meetings was decided upon and the Lecturer assignments made within same day driving distance from the Lecturer's home if possible. This eliminated overnight lodging and provided a savings to the Grand Lodge Budget. A School for the Grand Lectuer's was held at the Masonic Home Lodge in Wichita on August 15, 1998. The floor plans and ritual were carefully studied and rev-.ewed. Under the leadership of Robert Schroeder, a revised booklet on floor rules and instructions was reviewed and all conflicts were resolved by the committee and the Grand Lecturers. A copy of the revised booklet was distributed at all schools of instruction in 1999. Thanks to this committee and all of the Grand Lecturers for their labors in getting this book ready. The attendance at District Schools was low this year although the work proficiency was well done. I would ask the incoming Area and District Deputies to promote these schools. They are very important. Thanks again to the committee and Lecturers for their work this year. To M.-.W.-. T. Michael Fegan a thank you for the opportunity to serve our Grand Lodge.
Respectfully Submitted, Carveth K. Neer, PGM, Chairman Clifford Trax Robert Schroeder Leland Salts Robert Shklar CORRESPONDENCE COMMITTEE It is with regret that this report is being written, not because it is required by our By-Laws, but because it represents the loss to Masonry of many of its most dedicated leaders. The following Past Grand Masters, who made the transition from time to eternity during the past year will long be remembered for their contributions, their dedication and above all their love of oiu- beloved fraternity. We can truly say of each of these distinguished brethren, as once was said of our Most Excellent Grand Master Hiram Abiff, your work was well done, seldom equaled and never excelled. ARIZONA M.-.W.-.

GRAND MASTER'S ACCEPTANCE SPEECH Our Masonic Brother Harry S. Truman was right when he said that there is no honor greater than to serve as Grand Master of the Craft. I shall endeavor to be worthy of that trust, and to serve the Masons of Kansas to the best of my ability in the year ahead. Thank you my brothers for the opportimity to serve you. Thanks also to each of you for being with us today to help us have a memorable event and add to it. 1 certainly appreciate that. There are three who could not be here with us today, and 1 dearly wish they could be. I'm sure they are watching from the Grand Lodge above looking down at this Annual Commimication. Two of these Brothers are well-known. Past Grand Masters of this Grand Jurisdiction. M.-.W.-. Durwood "Danny" Danielson, Brother Danny appointed me as an Area Deputy Grand Master during his term of office. That got me outside and visiting other lodges. I found that there was Masonry beyond the door of my own lodge. That was the first of several appointments to Masonic office that finally led to this. 1 certainly appreciate his trust.

The second Past Grand Master you all remember well is M.-.W.-. Morris L. Fisher. It was Brother Morris who appointed me Grand Senior Deacon, and started me in this line to Grand Master. I appreciate the faith and trust that he had in me. He had always planned to install me as Grand Master and looked forward to It. He was stricken down by the ruthless setting maul of Cancer. We all miss him. The third mason missing today many of you do not know. His name is Currie Waugh. He is Jean's father. My father in law. It was he who first introduced me to Masonry. He became a Mason later in life. As he progressed through his degrees he told me he thought it was something I would enjoy. He was right. I've said many times, even when my wife Jean was not present, that FreeMasonry was the second best thing that her father gave me. I'm sure he would be proud. Without these three brothers I would not be here. I hope they are sitting side by side looking down in approval at what I've done. Having said that, I would now like to address the Brethren of the Grand Lodge of Kansas. My Brothers, please be assured that FreeMasonry is alive and well in Kansas today. Your Grand Lodge and Council of Administrative have instigated and are supporting several excellent programs to attract, maintain, educate and advance our members and to serve our communities while promoting our Fraternity in the eyes of the world. Some of these programs you will be familiar with. Others might be worth a try in your lodge. Here's a partial list of what is going on in Kansas Masonry today: We have a Master Builder's Award, awarded to those brothers who are top line signers on 5, 10, or 25 new petitions. It is a worthy goal, and we need more men to win that award. Vision 2000 award is awarded to Lodges, earned by meeting specific requirements in the areas of leadership, membership development, as well as in community and family involvement. The Master's Achievement Award Is earned by the Master of the Lodge by leading his lodge and achieving specified requirements similar to those in Vision 2000 award. One of the best programs that we have in Kansas Masonry today is the "Friends of Masons" or "Prospect Night". It is a proven method to find, educate, and selectively invite good men to become masons in your lodge. Each Lodge should try this at least once, preferably twice, a year. Grand Lodge Membership Committee members are available to help put on the program, and all you need to do is get the Prospects there, and new petitions are pracfically guaranteed. Contact Past Grand Master Sowder, who is chairman of the membership committee this year, for details and scheduling events. The Perpetual Membership Program in Kansas is an excellent tool to help you to provide for your Lodge and your Grand Lodge in perpetuity. I encourage you to join this because after a one time fee, you never have to worry about paying dues again. And it avoids the possibility of ever being suspended for non-payment of dues, due to whatever circumstances. May is Masonic Mile of Food month. Each lodge in Kansas is encouraged to contribute to the Kansas Food Bank, or a local food pantry to help relieve the hunger for those less fortunate. Each Lodge should add that to their schedule of things to do. Now of course each Grand Master has his own particular (or peculiar) programs that he wishes to emphasize during his term of office. In my case that is Masonic Educafion. I've been involved with the Masonic Education Committee for a number of years. I believe it is something that is needed. It is vitally important that masons be well informed about their Fraternity, for their own benefit and to be able to educate non-masons and answer their questions intelligently. The Grand Lodge of Kansas has several educational tools available to make us wiser, better, and hopefully happier. The Kansas Masonic University correspondence course series, which includes a course for mason's ladies, is highly recommended. And when you think about it, the Friends of Masons/Prospect night is Masonic Education to non masons. There are two new educational programs being initiated this year for Kansas Masons. The first will help your lodge develop leadership in its' officers, and that is called the Grand Lodge Senior Wardens class. The first class will be held on the weekend of June 19-20 in Wichita. This is not the old "Warden's School" from years ago. This is a fresh new program and has much practical informafion on planning, calendars, preparing a budget, leadership, programs, sharing ideas, and fellowship. This is a two day event with four meals and includes a table lodge that is guaranteed you will not forget. The ladies are also invited and several special break-out sessions for the ladies are planned to help give them a better understanding of what Masonry is, why their husbands are involved, and how they can help him make his year as Master a great one. It is recommended that each lodge sponsor their senior warden and his lady to attend this class. You will be investing in the future of your lodge. Information is being mailed to the lodges and you can read about it in the next issue of the Kansas Mason. The other new program for 1999 is the Masonic Books Program. Now most Public Libraries in Kansas have very little information about Masonry. If they have any books at all, they are probably Anti-Masonic or published long before any of us were bom. Through this program, a local lodge will purchase a set often good Masonic books, or at least several books out of the set, and donate them to the local library. Books in this set

Annual Proceedings of The

have been carefully selected to give the genera] reader a nice blend of masonic history, philosophy, philanthropy, and general information about the fraternity. It's also important to have a couple of books in each public library which answer the most common Anti-Masonic claims made by those less informed about us. This set of ten books is available from the Grand Lodge Office for $ 160 including shipping anywhere in the state. You lodge might also be able to get some good publicity from your local newspaper for presenting these books. You'll be providing a service to the commimity, and your fraternity. Your Grand Lodge is preparing for the future. By fall a new computer software system will be operational replacing our old non-Y2K compatible system, increasing our capabilities to serve the lodges and the craft. This new system will allow direct commimication between local lodge computers and the Grand Lodge computers, streamlining our information transfer and readying i;s for the new milletmium. You'll hear more about this later. During 1999 and into the year 2000 the Grand Lodge of Kansas will continue to emphasize and support the unity of the masonic community. A continued spirit of cooperation will prevail with the Grand Lodge and appendant and concordant bodies in the state. In order to survive and prosper we must work together. This spirit of unity also extends to our masonic brothers of the Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Kansas F & AM as we continue to normalize relations between their Grand Lodge and ours. One day conferrals of the three degrees will continue this year on a selective basis. Permission to hold a one day conferral and approval of the date must be obtained well in advance from the Grand Master. Robert L. Tomlinson Jr, our Grand Senior Deacon, has been appointed to be coordinator and resource person for one day conferrals. He will provide copies of the Grand Lodge guidelines to any lodge requesting this option for presenting the degrees. Now let me tell you about some of the activities for the upcoming year: two receptions for the Grand Master will be held this year, one in Overland Park at the ABDALLAH Shrine Temple on April l?*, and one in Dodge City Lodge Hall on August 28*. You are all cordially invited to attend. Some other dates to note are May T^-Masons day at the University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City. Come see the showcase of work that the Kansas Masonic Foimdation is doing for cancer research prevention and treatment. You'll want to mark May 16* on your calendar, when the Grand Lodge of Kansas will dedicate the grave marker for PGM Morris Fisher. The Warden's class in Wichita on June 19-20th. In August on the weekend of the 14-15th we will be hosting a Five State Fellowship of Masons from four other states in Liberal. On Labor Day weekend the Annual Masonic Retreat at Rock Springs Ranch will happen. All of these are excellent activities to attend. Hope you can be there. My Brothers, we each owe a debt of gratitude to our Masonic forefathers who guided, guarded and preserved this fraternity over the centuries so that now we might enjoy the opportunity of membership in the Oldest, Largest, and Most Respected Fratemal Organization that the world has ever known. It is now in our hands. It is up to us to pass this great heritage on to the next generation. To be faithful to our trust we must not only believe in and live masonry, but actively promote it in our communities. FreeMasonry is not a secret society and should not be kept secret from society. I challenge you to put your lodge to work to improve your community. To make yoiu^elves known as men who care and serve. Show by example to those around you that FreeMasonry is the kind of organization that good men want to serve. Again, my brethren, 1 thank you for the opporttmity to serve as your Grand Master.
