Others brought greetings to the assembly. M.-.W.-.AIlan L. Huriburt asked the Grand Orator, Dennis Roberts, to deliver an oration. His oration spoke of how deeply rooted Masonry is in our lives and the lives of all the world. It was called "Freemasonry and Patriotism". THE MORE THINGS CHANGE THE MORE THEY STAY THE SAME FREEMASONRY AND PATRIOTISM Freemasonry is as up-to-date as the morning newspaper, for it deals with human nature and that has not changed much in centuries. What seems to change is the organizations, tools, and the other ways of going about doing things. Every baby bom of civilized, educated, religious parents has to be taught to use the tools that civilization has developed across the centuries. Freemasonry has played a large part in their growth and development. Freemasonry is a fraternity, however, it is not shallow, thin veneer wholly on the outside of society. It has depth and quality about it. Freemasonry is broadminded but not to the extent of accepting all men on an equal basis. Men are different and Freemasonry accepts this difference and examines all candidates for membership admitting only those who measure up to Its high standards. Not equality so much as quality is what counts In Freemasonry. Nor is Freemasonry a school. We leave that to the state but to be a good Mason one need only to study the wonderful history, symbolism laws and landmarks of Masonry. The more one knows about the order the more one loves it. The high purposes and ideals of the order cast, as they are in beautiful symbolism, challenge every Masonic student. Freemasonry is a science that applies science to character building. Its symbolism's, for the most part, are borrowed from the builder's science. In fact. Freemasonry is the outgrowth of the science of architecture. Freemasonry is religious but is not a religion nor is it a church. The fact that Freemasonry requires a belief in God, the bible and the hereafter makes it religious. Religion as viewed and practiced by Freemasons is of a high character and is too broad for petty doctrines and cheap religious customs. And, lastly Freemasonry is patriotic. Very much so. But it is not a political party in any sense of the term. It takes no part, as a lodge, in partisan politics. Masons belong to and support whatever parties they prefer. However, loyalty to one's country and its institutions has always been practiced by Masons. This is particularly true of American Freemasonry. From the introduction of Freemasonry into the American colonies in 1723, Masons were out in front in every effort and in every sacrifice to liberate the colonies in the first place and then to set up a "pattern of government" for the nations of the world to copy. Their charge finally was to maintain that liberty for which our forefathers of colonial days suffered and died. Freemasonry will ever stand for, fight for and defend the American way of life. We first note the activities of Masons in the revolutionary war. Some of the leaders in the movement that led up to that war were active Masons, such as Paul Revere who spread the alarm based on the signal given by Robert Newton from the Old North Church. We note William Dawes who gave the alarm in Roxbury as Revere did to Charleston. Who among us cannot recall studying Patrick Henry whose eloquence set the Virginia House of Burgesses on fire in the name of liberty. Samuel Adams, Josiah Quincy, Joseph Warren who assisted in laying the plans for the revolution were all Masons. On the evening of the Boston Tea Party Paul Revere was the Junior Warden of his lodge, lead a small group of colonial soldiers who guarded the "Indians" at the Boston Harbor as they dumped the tea into the bay.

The Declaration of Independence, so tradition says, was written on a white leather apron and signed on a Masonic alter. It was thus further signed by John Hancock, who was #50 of 56 signers that were Masons. A convention of great purposefulness assembled at Charlotte, North Carolina in 1775 and prepared the so-called Mechlenburg Declaration of Independence. This was of Masonic origin. Of the 55 men who sat in the Constitutional Convention 50 were Masons. Before the revolutionary war was half over, ten military lodges had been organized under command of George Washington. Night after night when Washington and the continental army were in dire straits, the word was sent down to the line: "no one on duty tonight but Masons"!! Of the 29 major generals under Washington, 20 were Masons. Of the sixty brigadier generals 59 were Masons. When Washington was elected president of the small group of colonies he called the governors of the colonies together. There were 14 men around the table. Washington and the governors. All were Masons. This has been the spirit of Masons from that time to the present. In war and peace Masons have been the leaders in every constructive movement in the advancement of the United States to it's present place of power in the world. In peace men such as William Clark and Meriwether Lewis, both Masons, opened the trail into the northwest in 1804. In times of war leaders were Masons. Major conflicts such as the war of 1812 Brother Andrew Jackson brought the victory home and later was elected president of the United States. General Samuel Houston, a Mason, led the successful campaign in the independence of Texas. Masons were in the forefront in the war with Mexico. 3 major generals, one rear admiral and Commodore Matthew C. Perry opened the world trade with Japan. The civil war saw countless military leaders on both sides of the issue excel in their efforts to defend their respective constitutions. Colonel Theodore Roosevelt along with several Masons saw victory in many campaigns associated with the Spanish American War. In the First World War such men as General John J. Pershing, Rear Admiral Henry T. Mayo and Major General John A. Le Juene of the marines were all members of the Fraternity. The Second World War was no exception. Brothers General Douglas Mac Arthur, General George C. Marshall to name a few saw that campaign to its logical conclusion. Last but definitely not least, the host of men. Brothers, In the service of their country below the ranks of general and admiral. What Is to be said about them? Masons are scattered throughout the many commands fighting on scores of fronts and bringing honor and glory to the already glorious United States. Today, as in the past freedom for all is threatened by the darker side of war The enemy is invisible and ruthless. They are the most cowardly of enemies that prefer to strike and harm unsuspecting women and children who are mourning in funerals and worshiping in mosques and churches. This enemy has long since forgotten why they pursue this mindless destruction. It is basically driven by the whims of one man who is driven to run and hide knowing that the long hand of justice will someday deal a final blow to his lunacy. That final blow will most likely be dealt by a Mason. Brothers, I will now read directly from the source of this oratory and if you will bear with me I will offer explanation when I am finished. Today, America and the liberty loving democracies of the world face a global war, a war that will determine whether men are to be slaves and pawns in the hands of cruel, pagan rulers under a Tojo or a Hitler. The issues are well and plainly drawn. No quarters are to be asked and no peace overtures are to be accepted, nothing less than unconditional surrender. Hitler's Europe is being surrounded on every side by men determined to crush Hitlerism once and for all time. Then, waves of planes will fly over Japan, literally burning that island of wooden houses from off the map. This is to be a war to end war once and for all time. War is to be outlawed, banned among nations, stopped as a means of settling world affairs. Peace plans, as aggressive as war plans, will be set up to enforce right and justice among the peoples of the world. Gangster nations, like gangs anywhere else, are to leam that war is brutal and is the result of hate, love of power, and the silly prating of people who think they are the super-men of the earth. There are no such people. We will join forces with England, China, Russia and many smaller nations of liberty loving people to lead mankind into peaceful ways of living together, for this world, by airplanes and

wireless, has become too small for hate and other un-neighborly customs that have been a curse to man from the beginning. And, whether in war or peace. Masons will do their part. Freemasonry is now and has ever been the friend of every movement of a constructive nature, of whatever sort, but an enemy of everything that would limit the divine rights of men and hinder man's development. This purpose has cost Masons much, but they have always been willing to pay the price and today and today's crisis are no exceptions. Then, peace will come, and America will return to peacetime pursuits, and Masons will have a large place in the reconstruction of those years. The golden years of our great nation are not in the past, but In the future. We will be a greater nation in years to come than ever before. So, let us then set the pattern of our national life high, constructive and noble. As to us has been thrown the torch of liberty, so may we hand it down to those who are to follow us. The challenge is ours, may we measure up. The Grand Master introduced Brother Fred W. Condit of Parsons Lodge #117 who delivered this oration. He told everyone that it was given, for the most part, just as I have given it, excepting only the obvious references to the more current events, at the Grand Lodge session in February of 1943. In my opinion, it is as relevant and timeless today as it was then. Following the oration M.-.W.-. Grand Master Allan L. Hurlburt asked that all members of our armed forces stand and be recognized. M.-.W.. Allan L. Hurlburt asked that the Grand Senior and Junior Warden join the Deputy Grand Master in the East. M..W.-. Richard Fletcher, Past Master of Vermont, also the Executive Secretary of Masonic Service Association was also asked to join them. He explained that the Masonic Service Association has many programs that are introduced to the Masons of the United States, one in particular that is appealing to the Masons of Kansas. M.-.W.. Fletcher explained the "Operation Phone Home" program for veterans. Aprogram in partnership with the USO and AT&T, developed a phone card that shows the logo of AT&T, the USO and on the left the square and compass and the words "Compliments of America's Freemasons". We have been purchasing 100-minute international phone cards for the use of our troops overseas. $140,000 has been sent to the USO donated by Masons across the country. $4,500 of which came from the Kansas Masons, the Council of Administration. M.-.W.. Allan L. Hurlburt asked that M. W.. Glenn E. Kohr, Past Grand Master, join him in the East. M.-.W.-. Kohr spoke of a young man from Missouri, a dedicated Mason that wanted to make a remembrance to the State of Kansas. His uncle was present to make a presentation of a sculpture of a gavel representing the Grand Lodge of both Missouri and Kansas to M.-.W.. Allan. An accompanying letter was read with the presentation. This concluded the public portion of the opening. After a short break. Grand Master M..W.. Allan L. Hurlburt opened the 149th Annual Communication of Grand Lodge in the Third Degree of Masonry for such business as may regularly come before it. M.-.W.. Allan L. Hurlburt asked the Grand Senior Deacon to present in the East all Past Grand Masters and all other reigning Grand Masters for introductions and private Grand Honors of Masonry. M..W.. Allan L. Hurlburt asked the Grand Secretary, R..W.. Robert B. Pfuetze, if there was a quorum assembled, and the Grand Secretary assured him that there was. The Grand Master then officially introduced his Grand Lodge Officers.

FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT Most Worshipful Grand Master and Brother Masons: We wish to report that during the calendar year 2004, total current assets increased $300,000 or nearly 10% to 3,335,000 and total net assets increased $262,000 or nearly 8% to $3,645,000. Our total investments increased from $2,947,000 to $3,217,000, and our total investment income for the year was $154,000 for a return of nearly 6%. In comparing this performance to the three principle indexes, the Dow Industrials gained 9%, the S & P 500 gained 3% and the NASDAQ gained 10%, with the average of the three being 7%. Thus, we performed pretty well in line with the equity market. The committee expresses its appreciation to be able to serve the Grand Lodge during this 2004 to 2005 year. The Finance Committe Report is on page 46 of the Advanced Reports, and I move its adoption. It was moved and seconded that the report be adopted, the motion carried. The Report on the Audit was given by Brother Brad Koehn, CPA, a representative of Berberich Trahan and Company, Topeka, Kansas. He gave a report on the audit of the Grand Lodge, Perpetual Life Membership Plan, The Grand Master's Charity Fund and the Kansas Masonic Endowment Fund. The Financial Statements are available for review at the Grand Lodge in Topeka.
FINANCE COMMITTEE (from the Advanced Reportl To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: The members of the Finance Committee are pleased to report that during the year 2004/ 2005 the financial position of the Grand Lodge of Kansas has been maintained. Our investments are up approximately 6% for the year and have performed in line with the Dow Jones, S & P 500 and Nasdaq indexes. Over the last two years the investments are up an average of 28.8% per year. Our Grand Master has kept the Grand Lodge expenses within budget limits during 2004/ 2005, and the budget will again be in a surplus position. The addition to the Grand Lodge Endowment Fund this year exceeded $25,000. It is obvious, however, due to escalating membership losses, that an increase in per capita tax is needed or we will soon commence using our accumulated savings to pay operating expenses. During the year, the Finance Committee regulariy reviewed Grand Lodge accounts and regulariy compared revenues and expenses with the projected budget amounts to that date. Additionally, the Committee reviewed all investments of the Grand Lodge, seeing that all income was collected and 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 Allan L. Huriburt for his leadership, cooperation and assistance. We are most appreciative for the opportunity to serve the Grand Lodge of Kansas during 2004/2005. Fraternally submitted, Adiey E. Johnson, Chainnan Clifford D. Knauss, PGM

To the Council of Administration Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position of Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas and affiliates (the Grand Lodge) as of December 31, 2004, and the related consohdated statements of activities and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Grand Lodge's management. Our responsibihty is to express an opinion on thesefinancialstatements based on our audit. The consolidated financial statements of Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. ofKansas and affiliates for the year ended December 31,2003 were audited by other auditors whose report, dated January 23, 2004, expressed an imqualified opinion on those statements. The prior year summarized comparative information has been derived from those December 31,2003 auditedfinancialstatements. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements arefi'eeof 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. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consohdated financial position of Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas and affiliates as of December 31, 2004 and the changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. The schedule of expenses on page 10 is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic consolidated financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic consolidated fmancial statements taken as a whole.

Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
2004-2005
M.-.W.-. Brother Ivan Vrtiska, Grand Master of Nebraska was asked by M.-.W.-. Allan L. Hurlburt to bring greetings and remarks from the Grand Lodge Nebraska. M.-.W.-. Vrtiska spoke on programs Nebraska has to increase membership and to put more public awareness on the Masonic Order GRAND MASTER'S ADDRESS In this Grand Master's address to the 149°'Annual Communication held at Salina, Kansas, I will reflect upon several things; the State of our World, the State of our Nation, the State of our Grand Lodge and the State of the Craft. The State of Our World At this time in our history, our nation is involved in a conflict which we originated, on foreign soil, with a few loyal, democratic allies in a struggle that has overtones of potentially establishing a democratic form of government in a part of the world which has previously been ruled by fear and terrorists for many generations. The recent election held in Iraq in January, 2005 reflected people hungry for self determination and self government. It is reported that the voter turnout was as high or higher there than in any recent American election, despite the negative American press which predicted that the election in Iraq would be premature, voter turnout would be low due to the threats of terrorists and due to the alleged low support for American presence in their country. It is gratifying that the press was wrong in their predictions, just as they were wrong in their 1948 Presidential election winner. Some of our Masonic Brothers, including one of my District Deputy Grand Masters (DDGM), Tony French, is serving our Nation currently in Iraq. We pray for his safe return and God's blessing upon all involved with this war on terrorism and quest for freedom. We pray for Divine guidance for the leadership of our Nation and of the international community and for peace among the Nations. May some of the Masonic Grand Lodges, which are currently in exile in the United States from their Middle Eastern countries, be able to return to a peaceful region some day. Masons have always taken their patriotic duties seriously and also have been supportive of our veterans in any way possible. This year the Council of Administration has worked with and answered the appeal of the Masonic Service Association (to the Grand Lodges) and voted to donate from the Grand Master's charity fund approximately $4,000.00 to the Masonic phone home program. This allows for prepaid phone cards to be distributed, free of charge, to our servicemen and women who are overseas so they can phone home to their families and loved ones during this time of conflict and when they are thousands of miles away. This is a wonderful program which the Masons nationwide have been supporting for several years. The State of our Nation At this time in our history, we have not had a Masonic President for over a generation, which is disturbing to me as Masonic values and influence appear to be on the decline. Masonic influence is evident in our nation, however, through the new state quarters which are being minted for each State, but only if one is aware of our Nation's Masonic history. As an example, Lewis & Clark, John Glenn, Orville and Wilbur Wright, the Statute of Liberty and similar persons, places or events are depicted on our coins which are cun-ently being minted and many have Masonic meaning or connections. Three of the last four men who have served as Governors of Kansas have been Masons, but the actual number of Masons serving our government in Washington and Topeka are probably at an all time low. This past year, the state of Florida was ravaged by several tomados. The damage to communities there and to the Masonic Lodges as well as to our Masonic brothers and their families was astronomical. The Council of Administration voted to send several thousand dollars from the Grand Master's charity fund to the Masonic Service Association in answer to their appeal for assistance to be fonwarded to the Masons of Florida. Kansas has been on the receiving end of that charity from the Masonic Service association in recent years when we had disasters and this year it was our turn to step up to reciprocate and help other Masonic jurisdictions with Masonic charity.

Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas The State of our Grand Lodge
Under a very able and supportive Council of Administration, I am pleased to report that we ventured into the 21" Century with a few improvements this year which have been received with many favorable responses. The fonnat of The Kansas Mason was updated to more of a magazine format like our neighboring Grand Lodge jurisdictions. In the spirit of Masonic symbolism, the silhouettes of Masonic explorers, Lewis and Clark who led the Corps of Discovery across the Louisiana Purchase 200 years ago, have appeared on the front page of The Kansas Mason this year and seem to be pointing us in the right direction. Additionally, with the able assistance of our Grand Secretary Robert B. Pfuetze, each of us can now browse the Grand Lodge Store for Masonic items for ourselves and our ladies on the Grand Lodge Website at www.gl-ks.org. I have found that the Craft and the public are eager to learn about our Masonic traditions, values and about our forefathers. They are also eager to learn about our Masonic roots and heritage. Fortunately several books and movies are currently popular in America which cast Masonry on a favorable light for a change. Following a trail blazed by several Past Grand Masters, this year, the Grand Lodge Book program has been received very well. Not only are Kansas Masons searching for Masonic light, but we sold two sets of books in Wisconsin and one in Wyoming. I am pleased that the actual number of books placed in the hands of the Craft this year has exceeded my expectations and the Grand Secretary has had to reorder several times as the books sold through Grand Lodge this year number in the hundreds. The books selected for the book program this year include: Freemasonry at the Top, The Craft & its Symbols, The Clergy and the Craft, Foreign Countries, Cornerstones of Freedom, Masonic Trivia and Facts, and The Heart of a Leader. Collectively, they have sold as a set for $89.00 and those who have acquired them have frequently kept them for their personal libraries. They are good, basic Masonic reading which, hopefully, whets the appetite of the reader to seek further light in Masonry. There are more of these books still available through the Grand Lodge office and website as well as other Masonic books. I am pleased that Deputy Grand Master, Larry Mersberg, intends to offer a similar Grand Master's Book Program in the ISO"" year celebration of Masonry as a means of helping Brothers gain more light in Masonry. The Grand Lodge officers and I have distributed literally hundreds of free Masonic brochures to the Craft and public. There are many available through Grand Lodge at a nominal fee. One of the latest and most popular is from the Masonic Service Association concerning Masonic Cornerstones. This new brochure was made available under the guidance and direction of M.-.W.. PGM of Vermont, and Executive Secretary, Richard Fletcher, who is in attendance at this Grand Lodge Session and will be addressing us at the all Masonic Banquet. It has been widely distributed across Kansas this year, especially at cornerstone dedications. Your Grand Lodge Officers performed the following public dedications this year: 1. Towanda-100 year rededication of lodge / public museum building 2. Yates Center-100 year rededication of Christian Church 3. Yates Center- dedication of new volunteer Fire Station Building 4. Lawrence- dedication of new Federal Farm Service Agency Building 5. Madison- dedication of new school athletic complex 6. Madison- dedication of new community senior center building 7. Wyandotte Lodge-150 year lodge rededication 8. Hoxie- dedication of their new lodge building 9. Johnson City- dedication of new county senior living center 10. Mankato- dedication of new Federal Farm Service Agency Building 11. Mayetta- dedication of their new lodge building 12. Oakley- dedication of new Buffalo "Bill" Cody monument Additionally, the Grand Lodge convened at Little River, Kansas to dedicate the gravemart^er for Past Grand Master, Art Hodgson, whose column was so untimely broken. We also mourn the loss of Past Grand Master Bill Brown and his lady, Jesse Marie. The fraternal relations with our Kansas Prince Hall Brothers were enhanced this year. In addition to our traditional meetings, we jointly conducted two public dedication ceremonies (Lawrence and Mankato) with them and we also shared with our Ladies in a joint Table

Lodge of Affection. A s Masons, we can be proud of the wonderful bridge which was initiated during the tenm of PGM Jeffrey Sowder and which has been growing ever since between our two Grand Lodge Jurisdictions. On the National level, there are now approximately 37 Grand Lodge jurisdictions which have fraternal relations with their Prince Hall counterparts. W e each have very much to learn and share about our wonderful fraternity. The State of the Craft The continuing decline of some of the rural and smaller communities across our State due to economic conditions has again resulted in a few more consolidations of Lodges this year. I trust that these Brothers will avail themselves of the good fraternal relations that can result from combining forces when we can no longer go alone. On the other hand, there was a new Lodge under dispensation in Kansas City formed this year and new lodge buildings were built and formally dedicated this year at Hoxie and Mayetta. As lodges relocate from outdated second story locations to modern first floor locations, it enhance their ability to improve their community image as well as accessibility and enhance their ability to grow in the future and meet the needs of the citizens who reside nearby. The State of the Craft at those locations is cleariy alive and progressive in their communities. Unfortunately, due to increased pressure from outside influences, the Craft as well as prospective members question the relevance of our fraternity in today's society. As Masons, we can point with pride to the philanthropy of our Shrine, York Rite and Scottish Rite Bodies; we as Kansas Masons can also be proud of our partnership with the University of Kansas in connection with the Kansas Masonic Cancer Research Institute. On a more local level, I am pleased that approximately three (3) dozen Kansas Lodges participated in the Masonic Teddy Program this year, thereby malting early childhood development education (as well as Masonic Teddy Bears) available to infant children and their parents. This is the first year for this program and despite growing pains and delays in some deliveries, the doctors, nurses and medical community have welcomed the program on the local levels as a very relevant and worthwhile endeavor Those Lodges which participated benefited from the good relations and positive image for Masonry. The program is being continued next year by Deputy Grand Master, Larry Mersberg, and it is expected to get even better. This program mal<es Masonry relevant for each Lodge on a local level. On behalf of the hundreds of infants helped by this program, I wish to express my personal thanks to those of you who believed in the program and I encourage you to continue the program into the future as there will be children born every day somewhere in Kansas. Grand Lodge Family My heartfelt thanks is extended to those elected and appointed Grand Lodge Officers, who traveled far and wide with Mary Lou and myself. W e are both proud of you and the Craft have been well served due to the generosity of your time, talents and financial sacrifices. You have had to take personal time away from your families, businesses and your Lodges to travel on behalf of Grand Lodge and I will be eternally grateful to each of you. How pleasant it was to always know that you would be wherever we were going, always ready to lend your support and presence. You each were willing to fill in at anytime to do the task at hand. It was especially gratifying to have you and your Ladies at the public dedications and emblem presentations to make things go smoothly. Our happiness and joys will be memories which we will cherish as a Grand Lodge Family forever. Grand Lodge Committees My thanks to the Grand Lodge Committees as they have served the craft well this year My personal thanks to the Jurisprudence Committee for their prompt and sound advice is very much in order The advice and support and timely counsel of the Past Grand Masters has been very uplifting and a wealth of excellent advice. It was also good to know that there is also an inexhaustible source of power and knovtrtedge through prayers.

Family It is fitting to express to my family a debt of gratitude and thanks for their support and understanding in our frequent absences from the usual family holidays and gatherings. Mary Lou has been my constant companion and has helped guide me on many occasions when I needed advice. I trust she enjoys the several new dresses which she has acquired this year due to my frequent oversight of introducing her My Grand Lodge Officers have helped me several times in avoiding this oversight, othenwise my wife's closet would have had even more new additions! Grand Lodge Staff The Grand Lodge Staff have carried the weight again this year for the behind the scene and day to day operation of the Grand Lodge Office and responsibilities associated therewith. My thanks go out to Bob, Jan, Nancy, Chuck and Clarence for the fine work that they have done. (Thanks also to Nancy for the Saturday meal when Mary Lou and I were passing through town one weekend.) In our travels, I have heard nothing but good comments on the in-today out-today work ethic at the Grand Lodge office. On one occasion a brother asked how it was possible that he could order an item off the Grand Lodge website one afternoon and it was in his mailbox the next morning! You make me proud when we hear these type of accolades about your service to the Craft! General Comments If you have never taken the time to read the farewell address of Brother George Washington, I encourage you to do so. That address has many Masonic overtones and it is good to read from time to time. He was wise and noted morality cannot prevail without religion. He stated that men need to look to God for Patriotism and human happiness. He noted that "...it is essential that you should...bear in mind that towards the payment of debts there must be Revenue; that to have Revenue there must be taxes...which the public exigencies may at anytime dictate." To that end, I feel compelled to note that the expenses of operating and maintaining the Grand Lodge operations and Building each year cannot continue to be met when the primary source of income (per capita tax) diminishes by $20$25,000.00 dollars each year due to the increasing number of deaths and suspensions of our members who had previously paid them the preceding year. As a society and as a fraternity, we cannot continue to live off our forefathers inheritance. The cost of building our Grand Lodge Building and each of our local Lodges was at some great sacrifice to our earlier generations. They loved the fraternity, just as we do today, and they gave generously to support and preserve it for future generations (us). The Craft today are not being asked to build anew but only to maintain at a time when there are fewer in the ranks than the year before. I firmly believe that we have been selling Masonry too cheap! In my travels out of state recently, I met and broke bread with a Mason who indicated that he was paying $10.00 a month for dues at his lodge for a total of $120.00 per year and was proud to do so for the honor of belonging to the world's greatest fraternity! Just a few years ago, men would give a week or more of their pay as a fee to become a Mason. Even today, we pay more to attend a sports events or belong to a country club than our Masonic dues amount to for ten (10) years. What is wrong with our value system? We expose our children to sporting events where they are taught to worship multi-million dollar athletes, some of whom use illegal drugs to achieve fame or engage in bar room type of brawls on the playing field and basketball court. Is this what Washington and Franklin had in mind for America? Is this teaching solid values and morals for the younger generations? I encourage the Brothers to support the per capita tax increase being considered at this annual communication as an expression of putting our money where our morals and values truly ought to be.

Recommendations Looking to the future, the wisdom of continuing to furnish the Grand Master with a new vehicle is a thing of the past. Although for many years, our Past Grand Masters drove new Mercury Grand Marquis or similar autos, the last Grand Master to do so was in 2001. Since then, every Grand Master has opted for a used vehicle. You should know that my Deputy Grand Master is going to try to recycle the vehicle which I have driven, (now two years old with approximately 65,000 miles) for another year and which will likely have far in excess of 100,000 miles on it by this time next year. The Grand Lodges in most all other states in our region reimburse the Grand Master for his travel expenses or establish a vehicle allowance rather than furnish the Grand Master with a vehicle. I encourage the Council of Administration to look seriously at driving their own vehicles and avoid the unwarranted criticism from a few of the Craft who erroneously believe that the Grand Master of Kansas still drives a new automobile each year. Along the line of Grand Master's travel, I drove, on average, almost a 1,000 miles a week in addition to trying to maintain some semblance of a family life and a law practice. I was away from home an average of over 40 hours a week, frequently staying overnight 2 to 3 nights a week with friends or family. I can't help but notice that the attendance at Grand Lodge Is down each year and wonder if it might be because the Grand Masters have been so accessible, been so many places and seen so many of the Craft that the Craft do not feel the need to go to Grand Lodge, since they have had the pleasure of having the Grand Lodge officers in their lodge or community, sometimes, several times in one year. It seems the office of the Grand Master no longer is held in as high esteem as it was perhaps thirty or forty years ago. In the Kansas Masonic history book, it relates that one brother decline the opportunity to serve as a candidate for Governor because he wanted to serve the Craft as Grand Master instead. Even Past Grand Master, Harry S. Truman, is quoted that it was a greater honor for him to be selected to be the Grand Master of Missouri than to be President. The same cannot be said today. To better utilize the Grand Lodge travel budget and Grand Master's time, I believe that the Grand Master should be encouraging Lodges in each District to invite surrounding lodges to jointly host the Grand Master when he travels to their area. It is not an effective use of the Grand Master's time and resources when he travels to a lodge or event and sometimes he has almost as many in his entourage as the local lodge has at the event, only to travel back to the same general area a week or two later to a neighboring lodge or community. The Grand Lodge Officers should be accessible to the craft, however, by the Grand Master being requested to be at so many events, is it any wonder that the positions of the DDGM and ADGM have greatly diminished in importance and desirability in the eyes of the Craft. Who wants to talk with or see a DDGM or ADGM when you can go directly to the Grand Master? I believe that the importance of the positions of the DDGMs and ADGMs are underrated and that they deserve more recognition and praise. I encourage future Council of Administrations to look at the whole picture and do what they perceive to be in the best interest of ancient craft masonry. The number of the Craft in our jurisdiction continued to decline in numbers this year despite the efforts of a professional and dedicated Grand Lodge membership committee and numerous one-day conferrals. Our deaths and suspensions have again exceeded the number of new brothers raised this year. I am pleased to report that some one-day conferrals were held in Wichita on a weekday evening designed for the businessman who traditionally works on Saturdays has met with some surprising success. The Craft were hungry for Masonic Light this year and we have tried to provide resources that were accurate and informative to meet those needs. The annual Warden's seminar and Secretary classes were well attended and have been very beneficial. I recommend that they continue to be offered and commend R.-.W.-. Steve Molstad for his courage to consider condensing the Warden's seminar to a one day event for the warden's and their ladies. I hope that the workshop sessions at Grand Lodge will be equally beneficial and educational to the Craft this year at this Grand Lodge session and I urge the Council of Administration to continue to be Innovative in reviving Masonry and making it relevant and vibrant in our communities again. GOOD DEEDS and GOOD WORKS attract Good Members. Ask not what Masonry can do for you, ask what you can do for Masonry!

It has been an honor and most humbling experience this year being allowed to serve as your Grand Master. May we always look to the future but not be afraid to appreciate and learn from our past. Fraternally, Allan L. Hurlburt During the Grand Master's speech, he asked that the Grand Chaplain come to the altar to pray on behalf of District Deputy Grand Master Tony French, currently serving our nation in Iraq. It is our prayer that Tony be returned to us. God's blessing be upon all whom are involved with this war on terrorism and the quest for freedom. Right Worshipful Ron Triggs from Wyoming was next to bring greetings and information from his jurisdiction. He spoke on bringing "quality" men into the Fraternity. M.-.W.-. Allan L. Hurlburt then turned over the proceedings to Deputy Grand Master Larry Mersberg, who requested Brother Grand Senior Warden, J. Steven Molstad and Grand Junior Warden, Jimmie L. Grassi, Sr., to assist in the presentation of awards.

Hurlburt asked the Deputy Grand Master to see that the District Deputies distribute the ballots to the delegates that are eligible to vote. The election will be open until 2:00. He stated that ballot boxes were available at the back of the Lodge, and to vote in the best interest of Ancient Craft Masonry.
Grand Secretary Robert 8. Pfuetze moved that the reading of any other reports already printed in the Advanced Reports, except for those on the Grand Master's agenda, be dispensed with. Those reports being the Masonic Home Report, the Grand Treasurer's Report, as well as the Jurisprudence Report. If there are any objections to those reports in the Advanced Report that they be put in writing and on the Grand Secretary's desk prior to 4:00. The motion was seconded and carried without discussion.

Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
KANSAS MASONIC HOME 2004 ANNUAL REPORT FROM THE ADVANCED REPORT To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: 2004 was an exciting time at the Kansas Masonic Home. There has been a change in the overall leadership of KMH along with a reorganization of the Board of Directors. Asynopsis of the events that have occurred at the Kansas Masonic Home the past year demonstrates that we continue to focus on the Mission of the Kansas Masonic Home addressing our resident's family, health, social and spiritual needs with dignity and continuing to be the pride of every Kansas Mason and every member of the Order of Eastern Star in Kansas. Fraternally Numerous special fraternal functions were hosted by KMH during 2004 which included: the District #26 annual Banquet, Past Patrons and Matrons potluck dinners, the Ladies Table Lodge, Job's Daughters luncheon and meetings. North Star Lodge meetings, Albert Pike Trustee meetings, Guild Hall Lodge meetings, Kiwanis weekly luncheons. Masonic Home Lodge #450 bi-weekly meetings. Masonic Towers Christmas Wine & Cheese Reception hosted by Thomas C. Raum, Jr., Amaranth monthly meetings. Keystone High 12 Club Luncheons, Grand Chapter meetings, and the annual Grand Chapter visit in November. Financial Turn-around During my first year as your Chief Executive Officer I was fortunate to be able to lead an extraordinary senior staff in developing new ways of looking at the way we operate. We changed our way of thinking from "not-for-profit" to one of "not-for-tax" because without a black-ink bottom line, no organization can hope to keep its doors open very long. With numerous cost saving Initiatives and an emphasis on attaining a "full house" in all of our facilities, we were able to reduce the overall operating loss from 2003 by $787,000 and post a fully annualized, year end black-ink bottom line of $255,000. This was not accomplished by any one person and I must give credit to the entire staff for looking "outside the box" for new and innovative ways of doing business. Additionally, I would like to note that this was accomplished without any reduction in nursing staff. We still have one of the highest ratios of staff-to-residents in the state which means more personal 'hands on' care for our residents and a golden reputation with our referral sources. Administration The Board of Directors was very active meeting bi-monthly with the annual meeting held in March. The Board of Directors for 2004: Terry Carter, President; Allen Hale, Vice President; M.-.W.-. T. Michael Fegan; Mary Bolton; Dewaine Geiger; Ray Scadden; Tom Griffith; and M.-.W.-. Thomas C. Raum, Jr. as Secretary/Treasurer. Isabel Adams, Associate Grand Conductress, was the Grand Chapter representative on the KMH Board of Directors for 2004 and Jimmie Grassi, Sr, Grand Junior Warden, was the Grand Lodge representative on the Board for 2004. In October 2004, Tom Griffith resigned from the Board of Directors. He was replaced on the Board by Dennis Johnson. The Board of Trustees of the Kansas Masonic Home meets twice a year. They are: Merie Talbott, Chainnan; Carl McFadden, Vice Chairman; Trudy Riddle, Secretary/Treasurer; Joyce Book, Mike Carnes, Claude Carpenter, Shiriey Davis, Mary Janet Douglass, Eunice Duttweiler, Keith Evans, John Golden, Mel Graves, Carol Hamblln, Elaine Jung, Gary McCarty, Michael R. Milleson, Carveth Neer, Bill Sellen, RoxieThomburg, Fred Trombley, Nola Vice and Wayne L. White. The following was the organizational structure of the Kansas Masonic Home for 2004: James R. Falkner, CEO; Carolyn Haefele, Executive Assistant; Bob Bethel, Interim Administrator of the Pavilion; Maria Camjth,Director of Assisted Living Manor; Teme Lewis, Director of Housing/Marketing; MelanieCook, Director of Finance; Angela Casper, Director of Human Resources; David Shuman, Director of Building Services; John Killeen, Director of Dining Services; Judy Quick, Director of Development; Jeremy McKlbban, Director of Information Technology; and Len Fennewald, Chaplain. In November 2004, John Killeen

turned in his resignation to return to his home state of Florida. He was replaced by Gary Bradford with HDS Services. Facility-Wide Functions KMH hosted several events throughout the year with various organizations, which included the Kansas Health Ethics Educational Wort<shop, EMS Board meetings. Hospice Care of Kansas luncheon, HCIS Seminar, Air Capital Choir, Melody Hi-Life, Kansas Adult Care Executive meetings, and a Veterans Day Celebration was held honoring residents. In March, 2004, KMH hosted the Miss Wichita Pageant in the Auditorium. The young lady who won the Miss Wichita title here on our stage went on to be Miss Kansas and competed in the Miss USA contest. Several people attended this event that was well publicized. Our residents were given free ticl<ets and had reserved seating in the front 3 rows. In April, KMH held the 2"^ annual Fine Arts Festival. We had an increased number of exhibitors and attendees from the previous year. The Art Festival has proven to be an effective way to familiarize the South Central Kansas Community with KMH and the sen/ices that we offer. KMH hosted a Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon for our volunteers in April 2004. KMH Volunteers were recognized for their many hours of service with a certificate, a pin with the numberof hours volunteered, and a luncheon. The Worthy Grand Matron, Kathy Johnson, was the guest speal^er for the day. Kenny Hughes, Volunteer, was recognized with a plaque by the other volunteers who have named him "Mr. Wonderful". Working with the field survey arm of the Kansas Department of Health & Environment, KMH again demonstrated the excellence in resident care in the annual survey of the Nursing Facility (Medical Pavilion). In summary, it has been a very good year. Your Kansas Masonic Home reached a financial turn around point and new initiatives have already been put in place that will yield even greater rewards in 2005. The entire staff is excited about our new direction, what it will mean for them personally, for "The Home" and for Kansas Masonry. I feel blessed to have been selected to lead this historic organization and I am every grateful for your continued encouragement and support. Fraternally, Bro. Jim Falkner, Chief Executive Officer R.-.W.-. Terry W. Carter, President of the Board of Directors
Grand Secretary Robert B. Pfuetze moved that the reading of any other reports already printed in the Advanced Reports, except for those on the Grand Master's agenda, be dispensed with. Those reports being the Masonic Home Report, the Grand Treasurer's Report, as well as the Jurisprudence Report. If there are any objections to those reports in the Advanced Report that they be put in writing and on the Grand Secretary's desk prior to 4:00. The motion was seconded and carried without discussion. REPORT OF THE GRAND SECRETARY FROM THE ADVANCED REPORTS This year, as most others have been In the past, is one of attempting to pay the bills while still remaining within the budget set out by the Grand Master and approved by the finance committee and the Council of Administration. Declining revenues from loss of membership makes this more difficult each year. I am sure you all realize that the price of heating your house is much higher this year. The cost of heating the Grand Lodge building is also much higher. It costs an average of 20 times my home-heating bill to heat the Grand Lodge building. The cost of electricity is higher this year because a lot of electricity is generated with natural gas. There has been an increase in water rates. Essentially all utilities are considerably higher than in prior years.
2004-2005
Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
The huge increase in the price of gasoline has affected our budgeted amounts for the Grand Master's and Grand Lodge officer's travel. By the way, we used to pay for travel for a lot more Grand Lodge officers, committeemen, and Lodge representatives than we do now. Today the only persons paid for travel in an "official capacity" are the Grand Master, the elected Grand Lodge officers, the Grand Senior Deacon, and the Grand Lecturers. We now have about 31,000 members, which is less that 1/3 of the members we had at one time. I expect that number will decline by another 1,000 members this coming year. I sincerely believe that by the end of 10 years our membership will be half of what it is today. Clearly inflation takes a toll on our budget each year, but it is really the membership loss that takes the greatest toll. This last year, we lost about 1,000 members, which means we had $17,000 less income than the year before. Realistically the loss of 1,000 members doesn't lessen the expenses of Grand Lodge significantly, just the income. My Brothers, I have said for some time that our critical number is 30,000 members. Once we drop below that number, our per-capita tax will no longer be sufficient to fund the operations of your Grand Lodge. I am sure that sometime this year we will reach that 30,000-member mark. Currently the per-capita tax is $17.00, but $3.00 of that is earmarked for the Kansas Masonic Home, $2.00 is earmarked for the Kansas Mason Magazine, and 50-cents is for the George Washington National Masonic Memorial. That leaves $11.50 that Grand Lodge can actually use to pay its expenses. Therefore the per-capita tax will fund a budget of only $345,000. Typically our expenses have been anywhere for $175,000 to $225,000 more than that. I have found ways to cut costs in many areas, but it is not possible to cut costs that much. This leaves only three options: 1) Begin using our savings or our investment income to pay the routine bills, 2) Raise per-capita tax, or 3) Have the Grand Master order a special assessment on the membership. The first option is similar to what our government has done for years... borrow against future generations and leave our children and grandchildren with the bills. The second option is at least voluntary. I guess I didn't mention another option: we could just close down Grand Lodge, and see how long the local Lodges could operate without the assistance of the Grand Lodge office and staff. You will find in the proceedings a copy of the Grand Master's budget he and I have prepared for 2005-2006, which will help to show our projected income and expenses for the coming year Also following these comments you will find a report of income and expense for the year to date, along with a comparison to the budget prepared by our current Grand Master. I would be remiss if I didn't express my appreciation to all of the Lodge Secretaries who do their job day after day and get reports to me on time. They make my life much easier. I also want to thank all of the employees who work so diligently at the Grand Lodge office: Clarence, our print shop operator; Chuck, our custodian, maintenance man, researcher, and just about anything else we can find for him to do; and of course Jan and Nancy, two of the hardest working secretaries I know. All of these people deserve my appreciation as well as yours for keeping the office running so efficiently. Fraternally submitted, Robert B. Pfuetze, Grand Secretary

CHURCH-LODGE RELATIONS COMMITTEE In light of the fact that the Christian view of life is under attack from many sources, we believe that we need reminders in our lodge activities to strengthen our basic belief as Masons. Cooperation with our churches in many ways are helpful. This committee suggests that a renewed dedication to our St. John's Days, backing them with research into their background and uses, will be a valuable asset. Dr. Joseph Fort Newton in his book Short Talks on Masonry, Allen Robert's small book. The Craft and Its Symbols, and Colin Dyer's book entitled Symbolism are good starting points. We all need to know more of our gentle craft and this committee suggests the study of St. John the Baptist and St. John the Divine are worthy of our efforts. Arris Johnson, PGM
CORRESPONDENCE COMMITTEE While words do little to mitigate the grief of those who have survived them, I am sure they will each gain a measure of strength and comfort from the knowledge that everyone of the following will long live in the memory of all who knew them. Who worked with them, who loved and who now miss them. These are the fallen pillars of Masonry. Brethren, who because of them, our world is a better place. Our beloved Fraternity has benefited from their dedication and devotion their labors and contributions. May they rest in peace. Delaware M..W..

KANSAS MASONIC UNIVERSITY To The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: The Committee continues to make changes in the courses to reflect updated information regarding Masonry, and to remain current with any by-law changes. Some of the text in the courses, some of the questions, and some of the answers have been changed or updated. The Ladies Course changes are complete, and the other changes will be completed by Grand Lodge, 2005. A new member of the Committee, K. Tyler Curtis, has been instrumental this past year. Brother Curtis updated the Ladies Course, and has spent countless hours in grading and returning course work. We look forward to having his expertise in helping to complete the updates for the rest of the University's courses. The Committee extends our great appreciation to Most Worshipful Allan L. Hurlburt for the opportunity to serve the Grand Lodge and the Masons of Kansas. W.-. Vernon Ball K. Tyler Curtis W.-. Don Jensen
W.. Melvin L. Luttrell W.-. David C. Voss, Chairman
LIBRARY COMMITTEE REPORT The Library Committee is proud to announce that we have joined the Masonic Library and Museum Association. We will be able to explore all of the other Masonic Libraries via the Internet once we have converted our card index system to an electronic Index system. The Library Committee has been converting the card index into a computer index over the last year. We are hoping to find duplications within our library so we can trade with Masonic Libraries. This is one method by which we will be able to expand the number of books we have on our shelves. Mark Clanton, a volunteer for the Library Committee, has been sorting the vast assortment of material trying to find space to display more items. Paul R. Oldham, Chainman
MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and accepted Mason of Kansas 2004 has been a productive year for the Membership Committee. There were 36 requests for a Friends of Masons Night from 33 Lodges. Of the 36 requests, 25 Lodges returned the Friends of Masons Night Report. 93 Prospects were at these 25 reported Friends of Masons Night. 13 of these reports indicated that they had received Petitions as a result of the Friends of Masons Night. 52 prospects attended these 13 presentations and 35 Petitions were received, that Is a 67 percent success or 4 petitions at each presentation. This seems like a lot of figures, but it points out that our Friends of Masons Nights are successful, but only when used. There are 263 Lodges in our Grand Jurisdiction. If only 33 Lodges used the Membership Committee this year, that means that 230 Lodges did not If these 230 would have had a successful Friends of Masons Night, we would introduced 920 potential members to what a great Fraternity we have. Most Worshipful Jeffery L. Sowder, PGM, made 28 Friends of Mason presentations in the Wichita area to 149 prospects with 107 presenting Petitions for the Mysteries. The Membership Committee would like to thank him for his dedication to the Craft. I urge every Brother to thank him for his dedication and hard work for our Fraternity. He definitely sets a high standard for the rest the Craft. Thank You M.-. W.-. Jeff!

I urge each of you to study the Annual Report Summary by Lodge at the back of the Advance Report and then in the Annual Proceedings, The numbers for each Lodge and for our Grand Lodge are self-explanatory. We have no control over the number of our Brothers that are called to that Grand Lodge Above, but we can work to reduce the number of suspensions for non-payment of dues, and we can increase the number of men that we Initiate into our Lodge. There are many tools available to increase membership. It is a proven fact that the Friends of Masons Night is one of the best tools that we have. This program can only work with a strong dedication from each Lodge to successful plan a Friends of Masons Night. The Membership Committee is composed of dedicated Brothers who continue to offer their services without compensation for time or mileage. We continue to encourage all Lodges and other Masonic groups to call upon us to assist in presenting positive programs about the benefits of becoming a member of the Greatest Fratemity in the World. The Application for a Friends of Masons presentation has been modified with the following additions: " We understand that in the case that we have three, or less, prospects and do not contact the presenter for that evening, that we will reimburse him $25.00 or mileage at the rate of 40 Vi cents per mile, which ever Is greater. At the time that we inform him that we do not have the at least three prospects, we will reschedule the presentation." This change is made NOT to deter any application, but to motivate all Lodges to diligently plan their Friends of Masons program as well as to compensate Grand Lodge presenters for meetings not properly attended. The members of the committee enjoy the opportunity to come, visit your Lodge, and make their presentations. Each memberof this committee wishes to thank M.-.W.-. Allan L. Hurlburtand the Brethren of this great Fraternity for the opportunity to serve the Grand Lodge of Kansas. Respectfully submitted, Mervin E. "Butch" Buchenau, Membership Committee Chairman PATRIOTISM COMMITTEE To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: In 2004 the committee took part in Masonic activities, with an audience of more than 800 Masons and members of Masonic Appendant Bodies, theirfamilies and friends. We were proud to be invited to post the Colors at the opening ceremonies of the Grand Lodge Annual Communication on March 19 and at the installation of Grand Officers on March 20. Our other activities included posting the Colors at Lodge functions, as well as our "Building The Flag" and "Folding The Flag" programs. We have also shown some video tapes and given some talks on patriotic themes which have been extremely well received. In addition to our Masonic activities, the committee presented similar programs for nonMasonic audiences, insuring that they were aware that we are Masons. They were viewed by approximately 1,800 persons, consisting of school, church, fraternal, civic and youth groups. We are still gratified by the response we get from school and other youth 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 have never previously learned about the early history of our country and the origin of our flag. We urge each Lodge to establish a Patriotism Committee and an ongoing Patriotism program. The committee will assist in preparing such a program on request. Fraternally submitted, Donald 3.

Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
We conclude our report by 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. We must include them in our Masonic family as part of a unified family. To support the youth in accordance as per the above recommendation, the committee strongly urges that Grand Lodge divide this committee into two wholly autonomous bodies. Respectfully submitted, Harold F. Lister, Chairman RITUALISTIC COMMITTEE ADVANCED REPORT My thanks to M.-.W.-. Allan L. Huriburt for my appointment to serve as chairman of the Ritualistic Committee. The Ritualistic Committee met on June 19*" at Carbondale Lodge to discuss several topics that arose between our meeting last August and then. Two Grand Lecturers were selected to be recommended to the Grand Master for Emeritus status, a notice was developed for the Kansas Mason emphasizing the 1998 book of suggested floor movements is our most current approved publication, and for the 2005 district meetings to make the conferring of the first section of the 3'^ degree optional. The annual meeting of the Ritualistic committee was held in Emporia on June 13" and the district meeting assignments were finalized for distribution to the Grand Lecturers the following day. W. Brother Harry Pendleton was recommended to be appointed as an Assistant Grand Lecturer. The Ritualistic meeting was held August 14"^ at Emporia Lodge with thirteen Grand Lecturers and three interested Brothers in attendance. The work to be exemplified at the district meetings was reviewed in detail. Thirty - nine district meetings were held in January and February of this year bringing instruction to all forty - two of our districts. Eleven Grand Lecturers were involved. My sincere thanks and appreciation to our Grand Lecturers who give so abundantly of their time and talents to maintain and teach our ritual. Fraternally and Respectfully submitted Terry W. Carter, Chairman Worshipful Steven Crane joined M.-.W.-. Allan L. Huriburt in the East to give a report on the status of DeMolay in Kansas. DEMOLAY STATE OF THE CRAFT M.-.W.-. Grand Master Allan Huriburt, Grand Lodge Officers, visiting dignitaries and Brethren all. I am very pleased once again to come before this Grand Lodge and provide the annual update on the State of the Craft In Kansas DeMolay. The outlook is very bright, and we are very pleased to inform this Grand Lodge that once again Kansas DeMolay has shown growth in the preceding year This constitutes the second consecutive year of real growth in membership. As you may recall from last years report, we ended up the year 2003 with more new members than we lost to majorities. In 2003 we had an unusually high number (neariy 20%) of DeMolay who reached majority age of 21 years old and were removed from the membership list. In a typical year 11% of DeMolay will reach age 21 and no longer be active members. 2004 proved to be a more typical year with 13% of our members reaching age 21 and falling off the rolls. By October of 2004 we had already replaced all of the majorities we would encounter for the entire year. By October we were bringing in new members at a rate 32% higher than 2003. At various times during the year Kansas DeMolay ranked as high as 3"^ place for achieving overall growth among 62 jurisdictions around the worid.

So how did we finish out the year? We brought In 21 % new members for 2005, ending the year with real growth of 8.4% over 2003 after accounting for all the young men who turned age 21 during 2004. Kansas moved from 24*^ place among 62 jurisdictions to 2 1 " place in temris of overall total membership. Kansas ended the year in 10*" place out of 62 jurisdictions around the worid for membership growth. Three new Chapters were created in Paola, Anma and Garden City. We are currently in the process of exploring new Chapters in several new locations around the state. I expect that we will succeed in at least half of these and by this time next year I hope we will have opened at least 5 more new Chapters around the state. Among all the good news there are certainly failures. One of my greatest hopes was that as we opened new Chapters In various places around the state we would be able to generate enough DeMolay Chapter Sweethearts to co-generate a new giris group - either Job's or Rainbow. While that dream is still unfulfilled. It is of primary importance. None of the youth groups can achieve maximum potential without a close relationship with the others. I know from experience and also from vague memory of being a teen age boy, there is nothing a teenage boy is more interested in, than a pretty teen age girl. Having raised four daughters of my own, I can unfortunately assure you that this is definitely a two way street. What inhibits this process is a lack of willing adult advisors, specifically female advisors, willing to start up a new Job's or Rainbow group. I urge each of your to talk to your wives, daughters or any other female that would be willing to spend a few hours a month as an adult advisor for either Job's or Rainbow. We need their help if the youth groups are going to be successful. Last year I spoke about the advantages of a DeMolay Chapter as a membership tool for the blue Lodges. Sometimes examples can be more enlightening. In June of last year a young man in Arma Kansas noticed the Lodge members doing some remodeling on the local Lodge as he passed by on his way home from school. Being a typical curious teenager he stopped by on occasion to inquire about what went on in that building. Worshipful Master Gayle Prettyman finally succumbed to this young man's questions by calling RW Grand Secretary Robert Pfuetze who referred him on to me. We found a way to get the young man to Emporia for the State Congress meeting in July and got him initiated. Unfortunately he was not able to stay for the DeMolay degree. We decided to go on a road trip to Anma and put on the DeMolay degree for this young man in his home Lodge of Arma. We arrived the night before, unloaded the DeMolay Mini Big Rig and the fun began. By 7 PM we had 15 young kids and some parents in the Lodge eating pizza and learning what DeMolay was all about. The following day we initiated 8 new young men and Arma Chapter was on a roll. The Lodge room was filled to capacity the night we put on the DeMolay degree. One consequence of this activity is that Arma Lodge has received petitions from two men wfiose sons joined the Arma Chapter. In addition to all the other things that Anma Lodge is doing within the community, DeMolay has added one more group of individuals within the community who know what the Lodge is, and what they are doing. People in the town of Anma that had never previously ventured into the building, were exposed to the Craft. A great deal of thanks is due to WM Gayle Prettyman, Rick Cummings and the other members of Arma Lodge vtrho agreed to move forward with DeMolay in Arma. It is our primary objective to make every Kansas DeMolay know, without any doubt in his mind that he is expected - not required of course - but expected, to join a local Lodge when he tums 18. I want to take just a moment at extend my sincere thanks to Topeka, Kansas City, Ft. Scott, and Leavenworth Scottish Rites for their willingness to step fonward and support strong Ritual development in Kansas. These Scottish Rites Valleys agreed to sponsor one or more young man's attendance at the annual DeMolay National Ritual competition. Last year we instituted an annual Kansas DeMolay Ritual competition - the winners from that competition joumey to Dallas, Texas to compete against the very best ritualists DeMolay has to offer from around the country. In late March of 2004 we sent the 10 young men who had won the Kansas state competition to Dallas. I was greatly concerned. Would these young men get their heads handed to them and retum utterty dejected? Would our endeavor to increase the positive aspects of Ritual back-fire on us? I anxiously awaited the results and was very pleased to hear that
2004-2005
Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
the young men from Kansas acquitted themselves quite well and came back with much increased enthusiasm for working more diligently on the Ritual. This past February 19* we once again held our annual Kansas State Ritual competition and thanks primarily to the financial support from Topeka, Ft. Scott, Kansas City and Leavenworth Valleys, these young men will again this year compete in Dallas on April 9". These young men who develop a love for the DeMolay Ritual today will be your future ritualists, - in your Lodge. Your support of the Ritual competitions and activities is greatly appreciated. We all read the newspapers and listen to the TV news. We often drive down the streets of our communities and observe teenagers standing on street comers or wandering aimlessly. It will come as no surprise to any of you that todays teenagers are confronted with more problems than we ever saw in our teen age years. Like many of you, the biggest concern I had as teenager was making sure I beat the bull to the gate when I crossed the pasture to the bus stop. I graduated from high school in 1969.1 never knew anyone that smoked a joint. I certainly never heard of crack cocaine or methamphetamine labs. Teen age pregnancy, drug abuse and alcohol binge parties were simply not part of the everyday life I was exposed to. More than likely if you are my age (53) or older you never experienced these things either and certainly not at the level and intensity that young kids experience them today. Today methamphetamine labs, pregnancy, alcohol binge parties, and smoking dope are so common that any high school kid can point out kids in their own school that are playing those games. Worse than this - most kids in JUNIOR high school could do the same. There is nothing in a teenager's life that has more influence than peer pressure. It is a time of rebellion and a time when they begin the perfectly normal process of separating themselves from the parental strings so that one day, they themselves, may become adults in few more years. Negative peer pressure exists in the everyday life of a teenager. If a teenager associates with individuals who exert negative peer pressure and has no place to go where positive peer pressure opposes the negative, the results can be catastrophic. If all the teenagers' peers are into drugs and burglary, the consequences are inevitable. DeMolay, Job's and Rainbow offer a deep-well source of positive peer pressure that can counterbalance the negative. Just as we Brothers choose to associate among ourselves in the Craft. By doing so we surround ourselves with men of good morals and tenets and we provide support to one another that helps us each become better men and able to walk the plumb line of life with rectitude. These young men and women desperately need the same support mechanism, they need to have the ability to surround themselves with a peer group that elevates the positive and rebukes the negative. Your community is no different than any other, the need exists is every community in Kansas. Some years ago the Grand Lodge of Texas completed a major survey among its younger members. One of the most noticeable facts was that over 35% of these younger members were Senior DeMolay. If you don't have a DeMolay Chapter in your Lodge, you are giving up on at least one third of your future members. If this loss is unacceptable to you and your Lodge, and if you have the desire to generate future members for your Lodge, then you need make the commitment to getting a DeMolay Chapter operating in your Lodge. So what do we know? We know that teenagers need your help, we know your community can benefit from a positive peer group active within the community, we know a youth group in your Lodge wrill generate new Lodge members today from their parents, and tomorrow from the young people themselves. We know that the surest road to new young members in your Lodge is the sponsorship of a DeMolay Chapter. At the urging of concerned Executive officers like myself with rural communities and a rural environment, DeMolay International has granted Kansas and 11 other jurisdictions dispensation to form DeMolay Leadership Chapters anywhere and anytime. The requirements are simple and easy to fulfill. It requires two adults and five young men to start a Chapter. The total cost for materials and adult registration is $321, which includes lifetime membership for the five young men, adult registration, and the issuance of a Charter along with startup materials. Any Lodge can easily start a DeMolay Leadership Chapter if they wish to do so. The new process makes it simple and fast. Kansas State DeMolay stands ready to assist any Lodge who would like to step forward and make a difference In their community by providing a

safe and secure place and establish some positive peer pressure among young men and women. With your permission, M.-.W.-. Grand Master, I would like to call the Brothers of Paola, Arma and Garden City west of the Altar, and if you would be willing to assist me in presenting them with the Charters they have earned for their new DeMolay Chapters. In closing I want to once again sincerely thank all the Brethren and especially all the adult advisors who have been so critical in making DeMolay such a success this past year. I also want to extend my sincere appreciation to the Grand Master and all the Grand Lodge Officers for their active Involvement and assistance. M.-.W.-. Allan L. Hurlburt thanked the members of these Lodges for the contributions they made on behalf of DeMolay growth in Kansas. M.-.W.-. Allan L. Hurlburt brought the session from labor to refreshment for the purpose of attending Educational Workshops. The order was communicated to the Craft. Without further ceremony he declared this Grand Lodge at refreshment. At one hour past High Twelve M.-.W.-. Allan L. Hurlburt declared Grand Lodge be called from refreshment to labor, for the purpose of resuming labor on the 3"' degree. It was communicated to the Craft, so that they, having due notice thereof, may govern themselves accordingly. Without further ceremony he declared this Grand Lodge at labor on the 3"* degree and the Tyler was informed. M.-.W.-. Allan L. Hurlburt asked for a show of hands of those that participated in the Workshops and stated he would encourage the Grand Master elect to continue with these sessions. He stated that the Council of Administration has strived this year to improve delivery of service, delivery of information and we applaud the members for their participation. M.-. W.-. Allan L. Hurlburt then asked Right Worshipful Tom Cox for remarks from Colorado. Right Worshipful Cox told that his grandfather, Thomas Han/ey Cox, Past Grand Master of Colorado, addressed the Grand Lodge session sixty years ago. Right Worshipful Kent Callahan from Oklahoma brought remarks. He brought greetings from M.-.W.-. William E. Owen, Grand Master of Masons of Oklahoma, and the 30,000 plus Masons of Oklahoma. He thanked everyone in Kansas for their hospitality. M.-.W.-. Richard Fletcher provided inspiring information from the Masonic Service Association and the Masonic Information Center. He again thanked the members for their support of the "Operation Phone Home" program, the program partnering with the USD on behalf of Americas Freemasons to send phone cards overseas to our troops. He also touched on the Disaster Relief Program. There has been an appeal on behalf of Florida and Alabama, and they are looking at what might be done for the tsunami relief and reconstruction. He touched on the other programs supported by the Masonic Service Association, and Masonic Information Center. He then presented M.-.W.-. Allan L. Hurlburt with a certificate of sincere appreciation of his abiding interest in and strong support for the Masonic Service Association's programs. Brother George Seghers, from the George Washington Masonic National Memorial, Alexandria, Virginia, was introduced by M.-.W.-. Allan L. Hurlburt. He told that Brother Seghers has developed innovative programs to encouraged Masons, youth organizations and members of appendant bodies to come for a visit to the Memorial and put items on display at the Memorial. During M.-.W.-. Glenn Kohr's year as Grand Master, a trip was made to the Memorial and Brother Seghers personally chauffeured everyone to the 250"" Commemoration of George Washington being made President, at Fredericksburg, Virginia. A check was also presented from the Council of Administration to Brother Seghers. The monies for the check came from the .50 assessed to each Kansas Mason as part of their per capita. Brother Seghers thanked M .-.W.-. Allan L. Hurlburt for the introduction and the support the Masons of Kansas have given the Memorial. He explained that the Memorial was erected

to honor the memory of our greatest citizen and Freemason, George Washington. It belongs to the Grand Lodges of the United States and to all the Freemasons of the United States. It was erected and maintained by the combined efforts of the Masons and Friends of the Memorial, as an everlasting tribute to the memory of George Washington. Brother Seghers also explained the program called the Grand Lodge a Month Program. Each state is assigned a month where they can display items from their Grand Lodge. He then gave M.. W.. Allan L. Hurlburt a Certificate of Appreciation from the George Washington Masonic National Memorial for the interest in and support of the Memorial. The Grand Treasurer, Clifford D. Knauss, gave this report: Our financial report starts on page 55 of your advance proceedings. You have heard the report of our Finance Committee and realize our income from investments is down considerably from what was earned last year.

REPORT OF THE GRAND TREASURER FROM THE ADVANCED REPORT To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of AF&AM of Kansas Once again it has been my pleasure to represent our Grand Lodge as your Grand Treasurer. It has been a rewarding year with many activities with our Grand Master, M..W.-. Allan L. Huriburt, and his Grand Lodge officers. Considering the number of Grand Lodge activities throughout the year, some unscheduled, your Grand Master and his officers have operated within budget and should be commended for a job well done. Our investments have returned a reasonable level of interest, however, at a lesser rate than last year but higher than the S&P 500. Of course, our continuing area of concern is the rising cost of doing business. This is compounded by a sharp loss of income from percapita tax received. Our loss of membership (percentage wise) is compounded each year by a smaller total membership and a continuing increase in loss by death. Our average age of membership continues to rise and unfortunately will do so for the foreseeable future. As your Grand Treasurer it is my opinion that some form of increase in per-capita tax is necessary to keep your Grand Lodge fiscally sound for the future. Our Council of Administration is continually cutting costs, where possible, while furnishing membership services as expected. They are doing a good job, under difficult circumstances, and deserve our support. Respectfully submitted, Clifford D. Knauss, PGM, Grand Treasurer It was moved and seconded that the report be accepted. The motion passed and the report was accepted.

JURISPRUDENCE COMMITTEE REPORT Most Worshipful Grand Master. On behalf of the Jurispnjdence Committee, I wish to bring the report to the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas. This report of the Jurisprudence Committee is a condensed version of the more important and significant items addressed by the committee in the preceding Grand Lodge year. Many of these items considered by the Committee were not of general interest to the Craft, only to the parties involved. Since the last Grand Lodge Annual Communicaton we had one formal meeting of the Committee. Most of the work of the Committee has been handled by correspondence, telecommunication and discussions with individual members of the Committee, who responded orally and not in writing. Report of the Secretary of the Council of Administration: The Committee has reviewed the report submitted and we find that no part of the report requires comment or action. Most Worshipful Grand Master, I move the report of the Secretary of the Council of Administration be approved. Rulinos Bv Our Grand Master: The Committee has reviewed in detail all of the Rulings, Edicts and Orders of our Most Worshipful Grand Master, Allan L. Huriburt, as reported in the advanced proceedings. It is our unanimous opinion that all of said mlings were cleariy within the powers and prerogatives of the office of Grand Master, and that they were all issued with the best interest of the Craft in mind. I, therefore, move that the Rulings, Edicts and Orders of our Grand Master be approved. The proposed By-Laws were then brought to the floor of the Grand Lodge by the Jurisprudence Committee with an explanation of the process of voting on them. Each ByLaw will be brought before the Brothers, read, the rational given, and the author of the proposed By-Law named. M.-.W.-. T. Michael Fegan, Past Grand Master, will then move for their acceptance. That is then the time for discussion of each proposal, before voting takes place. PROPOSED CONSTITUTION AND BY-LAW CHANGES FOR 2005 Note that wording to be removed has been struck out, thoeo wordc for oxampio, and any additions are underilned, these words for example. Proposal #1 3-408. Minutes of Lodge Communicationsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;The minutes of each Communication of a Lodge shall be read, corrected if necessary, and approved, at the next Stated Communication. With the consent of the Lodge, minutes of the previous Communication may be printed and distributed for each member in attendance to read, and minutes so distributed may then be approved as printed, or corrected if necessary. Similariv. a list of the bills may also be printed, distributed, and approved as printed or amended. Each Lodge has authority to alter or amend its minutes to make them speak the truth, but it cannot expunge any part of the correct records. Rationale: Allowing the printing and distribution of minutes and bills in advance would streamline a meeting, and eliminate a part of the meeting that proves to be boring in most Lodges. Respectfully submitted, Robert B. Pfuetze Past Master, St. Johns Lodge #113 Grand Secretary This proposed By-Law was Passed.

Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas Proposal #2
2-301. Grand Lodge Per Capita Tax and Special Assessment- Every Lodge Working under a Warrant of Constitution shall pay annually to the Grand Lodge a total Per Capita Tax of $17.00 equal to last years per capita tax plus 7% of the same rounded off to the nearest 10"' of a dollar on the roll of membership for the preceding year, commencing January 1,2004 2006, and ending with year. 2010. and remaining at the amount collected for 2010. unless changed by approval of the Craft. $2.00 of which will be used for the Kansas Mason only and $3.00 of which shall go to the Kansas Masonic Home, and with further provision that the portion allocated to the Kansas Masonic Home shall never be less than $1.50 per capita. Furthermore $0.50 per year shall go to the George Washington Masonic Memorial. Provided, That any increase in the per capita tax shall become effective on the Lodge roll of membership determined on December 31*', the S I ^ T the following year. (Amended 1974, 1978, 1982, 1988, 1991, 1993, 1996, 2003) The per-capita tax shall not be assessed against the members, but shall be included in the amount for annual dues, and paid out of the General Fund to the Lodge. Any Lodge which neglects or refuses to pay all its annual per-capita tax or any special assessments on or before the 10"" day of January in each year, or which shall fail or neglect to transmit to the Grand Secretary its Annual Report on or before the 10th day of January of each year shall not be entitled to representation in the Grand Lodge at the Annual Communication following such failure. The postmark on the envelope shall be accepted as evidence of the date of transmittal; and in all such cases shall not issue credentials to such Lodge. (Amended 1955. 1962. 1967. 1992} (Provided, That no per-capita tax shall be paid by the Masonic Home Lodge for any members who are also members ofthe Masonic Home. (Adopted 1975) Cross-Reference: Constitution, Art. IV; Art. IX, Sec. 9: By-Laws, Sec. 4-306. Rationale: The need for this Annual Membership Loss Adjustment is because for the past several years Grand Lodge has had a decrease in membership of between 1,500 to 1800 members and with this decrease there has been a monetary loss of approximately $25,000.00 per year. Expenses, such as taxes, insurance, building maintenance, salaries, utilities, equipment replacement, and office supplies continue without concern for the number of members we have and they, too, increase in cost each year.. For 2003 it expected that per capita tax to be received will be $472,500.00 of which $346,500.00 will be useable by the Grand Lodge because the rest is earmarked by the By-Laws, hereafter referred to as "useable". With our per capita tax set at $17.00 for 2004 the income will be approx. $504,900.00 of which $341,550.00 is "useable" and already it is evident that we have less money than last year even with the per capita increase. Each year the amount of loss adds to the deficit and in fact proves that we must take steps now that will insure that we do not find ourselves in a few short years in need of a large per capita tax increase to remain solvent. Increasing our Per Capita Tax by the proposed 7% each year will enable us to receive the approx. amount of income that we will be receiving in 2004 through 2007. But then, as shown below, we would need to raise the percentage for 2008 to maintain the same amount of income.

This proposal of a 7% increase is only applied to the amount each lodge pays to the Grand Lodge in per capita which is currently $17.00. This 7% increase for the 5 year period amounts to only $6.80 ($1.36 a year) We are the only Master Masons that are responsible for maintaining our fratemlty in Kansas keeping it as a viable and fruitful organization and if we do not do it we all know what the answer will be. We say on other personal matters that we do not want our grandchildren to be saddled with our debt but if we do not take and accept this responsibility now isn't that just what we are doing? We cannot adopt the archaic and selfish attitude that it will last as long as I am alive. Fraternally submitted, Robert L. Tomlinson, Jr. Past Master Shawnee Lodge No. 54 & Arthur H. Strickland Daylight Lodge No. 452 This proposed By-Law was Defeated. Proposal #3 2-301. Grand Lodge Per Capita Tax and Special Assessment- Every Lodge Working under a Warrant of Constitution shall pay annually to the Grand Lodge a total Per Capita Tax of $17.00 on the roll of membership for the preceding year, commencing January 1, 2004, 2006. and with an annual increase of $1.00 per year per capita tax in perpetuity, with a review of further needs due after 5 years. $2.00 of which will be used for the Kansas Mason only and $3.00 of which shall go to the Kansas Masonic Home and with a further provision that the portion allocated to the Kansas Masonic Homo shall novor bo less than $1.50 per capita. Furthermore $0.50 per year shall go to the George Washington Masonic Memorial. Provided, That any increase in the per capita tax shall become effective on the Lodge roll of membership determined on December 31", the 31^7 the following year. (Amended 1974, 1978, 1982,1988, 1991, 1993, 1996, 2003) The per-capita tax shall not be assessed against the members, but shall be included in the amounl for annual dues, and paid out of the General Fund to the Lodge. Any Lodge which neglects or refuses to pay all its annual per-capita tax or any special assessments on or before the 10" day of January in each year, or which shall fail or neglect to transmit to the Grand Secretary its Annual Report on or before the 10th day of January of each year shall not be entitled to representation in the Grand Lodge at the Annual Communication following such failure. The postmark on the envelope shall be accepted as evidence of the date of transmittal; and In all such cases shall not issue credentials to such Lodge. (Amended 1955. 1962. 1967.1992} (Provided, That no per-capita tax shall be paid by the Masonic Home Lodge for any members who are also members ofthe Masonic Home. (Adopted 1975) Cross-Reference: Constitution, Art. IV; Art. IX, Sec. 9: By-Laws, Sec. 4-306. Rationale: It has beenIO years (1995) since the membership addressed the per-capita tax assessment for the operations of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Kansas. At that time our per-capita tax assessment was $10.00 and the increase of $5.00 voted by the membership raised the per capita tax contribution to $15.00. To be dispensed as follows: Grand Lodge Operations $12.00, The Kansas Mason $1.00, and the Kansas Masonic Home, $3.00, and with the future provision that the portion allocated to the Kansas Masonic Home shall never be less than $1.50 per capita. It's a matter of record that the membership did approve in 2003 a $2.00 increase to the per capita assessment, however that Increase did not relieve the pressure on the rising cost of operations. It actually decreased the per capita allowance for these operations by $0.50 cents, bringing our operating funds to approximately $11.50 per member. The balance

being used as before, the Kansas Masonic Home ($3.00), Kansas Mason Publication,($2.00) and The George Washington Masonic National Memorial. ($0.50). Brethren, it is time for use to recognize the need and step up and face our responsibilities, and vote to approve this much needed increase. Fraternally submitted, R..W.-. Paul A. Lockwood, Gr. Rep This proposed By-Law was Defeated. The Report of the Jurisprudence Committee, in its entirety, was accepted. The Tellers gave their report on the elections. District Deputy Vernon Butt reported 291 ballots cast: Deputy Grand Master, Steven Molstad - 290 ballots, one scattered Grand Senior Warden, JImmie L.

161 Lodges out of 264 were represented. It was moved and seconded that the Attendance Report by the Credentials Committee be accepted. The motion carried. M.-.W.-. Michael Lintner, Grand Master, Nevada and Perpetual Life Member of Norton Lodge #199, Norton, Kansas came forward to bring greetings from the 4800 plus members of Nevada. He invited everyone to their Grand Lodge session in November in Mesquite, Nevada. He told that one hundred years ago, 1905, Past Grand Master Thomas G Fitch, Grand Master of Kansas, was known as the "silver tongued orator from the silver state of Nevada." M.-.W.-. came to Kansas by way of Reno Lodge #13, Reno, Nevada. Now he is the Grand Master of Nevada, by way of Norton Lodge #199. He addressed the Brothers on the importance of thoroughly investigating candidates, with the underlying message that quality is as much or more important as quantity. Brian Cotter "Digger", from Pueblo, Colorado was Invited to the Grand East to bring his words of wisdom. As a Funeral Director, he said that he feels the Masonic Funeral is a perfect opportunity to display to the public what the Fraternity believes. Colorado has developed a brochure for all of their funeral homes that briefly explains the funeral service and how to contact the local Lodge through the Grand Lodge officers. He stated that the Masonic Funeral should be done, and done well, so as to convey what Masonry is all about.

M.-.W.-. Allan then asked the Worshipful Master of Salina Lodge #60, Andrew (Andy) Steirwalt to join him. He thanked him for the help and support and asked that all the Brothers present to give him a warm round of applause in appreciation for all he's done. The private portion of the Grand Lodge was then brought to a close when M.-.W.-. Allan L. Hurlburt brought the proceedings from labor to refreshment for the purpose of having a Necrology Report. M.-.W.-. Allan took the opportunity, on the behalf of he and his lady, Mary Lou, and all of his officers he traveled with this year, to tip his hat to the Brothers and extend his sincere thanks and appreciation. He thanked the Grand Secretary for his assistance, and Grand Treasurer for his guidance with the Council of Administration. He encouraged everyone to be present for the Installation of the incoming Grand Master, Larry Mersberg, The proceedings were then closed in ample form. Sterling P. Hornbuckle, Jr., Grand Senior Deacon, began the Necrology Report by addressing the Grand Master, brethren and ladies present, and paying tribute to the 993 Brothers that have had their names called by the Creator. Among those M.-.W.-. William J. Brown, Past Grand Master, 1993, 1994, his wife, Jesse Marie Brown, John Wolf, of the Kansas Masonic Foundation, Jerry Cole, Kansas Masonic Foundation. M.-.W.-.Jeffrey Sowder, Past Grand Master then gave the Eulogy for M.-.W.-. Bill Brown. TRIBUTE TO BILL BROWN This year we were saddened to learn of the passing of Most Worshipful William J. Brown, Past Grand Master of Kansas, on October 28, 2004. The news of Bill's death came just one week after the sudden passing of his wife, Jessie Marie. Bill Brown became an Entered Apprentice on November 2,1956, a Fellowcraft on January 1, 1957, and a Master Mason on February 23, 1957 in Kincaid Lodge #338, in Kincaid, Kansas. Upon moving to Wichita, Bill became a member of Unity Lodge #273 in Clean/vater. At the time of his death, he also belonged to Masonic Home Lodge #450 and Community Daylight Lodge #453. He sen/ed as Master of Unity Lodge #273 in 1974. Bill was also the Grand Representative to Tennessee, served on the Board of the Kansas Masonic Foundation for 14 years, was the Chairman of several Grand Lodge committees, was a dedicated fundraiser for the Kansas Masonic Home, and worked in all the lodges where he was a member. Most importantly - Bill was a wonderful Ambassador for the Masonic Fratemity and Kansas Masonry. I first really got to know Bill in 1987 when M.-.W.-. Clifford Knauss appointed Bill as his Grand Chaplain. Bill had to replace a legend in the Grand Lodge, as Conrad Johnson had served in that capacity for many years. Yet he was more than up to the task, and did a magnificent job. His prayers were articulate and moving, and always added dignity to the occasion. Others were quick to note his love and dedication to the Masonic Fratemity, and in 1989 M.-.W.-. Robert Nease appointed Bill as Grand Senior Deacon, where he started his ascent up the Grand Lodge Line to serve as Grand Master in 1993. He was one of the best to ever serve as Grand Master of Kansas. Each of us who knew Bill had our favorite memory about him. Bill and I enjoyed many great times together and I have many wonderful memories of those experiences. Bill had a way wflth words that many of us have experienced first hand. I remember the time that a Grand Lodge dedication was about to take place, and the Grand Lodge officers were going to do the traditional com, wine, and oil ceremony. Bill was the new Grand Junior Warden, and this was his first dedication ceremony with a major speaking part. He had dutifully learned the part about the "oil" as is written in the Grand Lodge Officers handbook. Yet, just as the Grand Lodge officers were preparing to enter the lodge room, Conrad Johnson, Deputy Grand Master, informed Bill that they never went by that book that it was indeed HIS job to do the part on oil, and that Bill was to do the part on CORNII With that, Conrad put the vessel of com In Bill's hand, and Into the lodge room they went. The Grand Lodge officers marched around the room with Bill muttering to himself. He actually had very little time to do anything, as his part was the first one to be said. Yet

when he stepped fonward to do the part, while it bore little similarity to the part written in the handbook, it was delivered with great eloquence and dignity, and no one in the crowd knew the difference. That was vintage Bill Brown. There is a poem that goes like this: Isn't it strange that Princes and Kings And Clowns that caper in sawdust rings And common folks like you and me Are builders of eternity? Each is given a bag of tools A shapeless mass and a book of rules And each must make, ere Life has flown A stumbling block, or a stepping stone. This poem, by an unknown author, must have had Bill Brown in mind. Bill wasn't a Prince or a King - although to a lot of us he had that stature, and within the Masonic Fraternity he had the respect of everyone he came in contact with. In fact. Bill was common folk just like you and me. But what made Bill different from all of us was his bag of tools. Bill's bag of tools must have been very big, because he was always willing to reach into it and share its contents with those he cae into contact with. Bill was blessed with the skills, an understanding, and an ability to take people and get them to accomplish more for themselves than they ever thought possible. A small suggestion here, a kind compliment there, a word of encouragement when necessary, and yes, even a stern talking to when warranted. Bill took many "a shapeless mass" and made that person into something, so they could then be a stepping stone with everyone they then came in contact with. Bill Brown truly made a difference in the lives of many, many people. He will be missed, but our memories of him and his dedication to this Fraternity make us all continue to work. This Grand Lodge session is very different without Bill being present, but I am certain he is looking down from that Grand Lodge Above saying to each of us, "Well done, my good and faithful servants." Roger Walls, Grand Chaplain, read "Gods' Petition". "Have you ever wondered what might happen if God showed up at the door of your Lodge seeking admission. I have. It might seem strange to you that a fraternity based on the word and the ways of the Lord might question the admittance of the very one we base our values on. After all, shouldn't we automatically allow His admission? It might not be as easy as it seems. We ask and expect a certain manner of deportment from our members. We ask and we expect a level of behavior in us all. Would God measure up to our standards? Who in our Craft would be so bold as to serve on the investigating committee? Would you? Could you even with a clear conscious sign His petition? Do you know Him well enough? Now lets examine some of these questions. First, two of us must feel knowledgeable enough about the petitioner to be able sign his petition. How well do you feel you have to know a prospect to recommend him for admittance? Is your relationship with God that strong? Are you able to stand before, not only the Lodge, but also the world and recommend Him for inclusion into the things that you hold dear to your heart? I certainly hope so. How long and how well have you really known God? Second, let's look at the petition itself. We ask many questions about any prospective member. Although the questions and qualifications differ from jurisdictions, the basic principles remain the same everywhere and have for centuries. Many revisions have been made to petitions over the generations, but we have never lost sight of the basic reason for this minor inquisition. That is to gather the information, the basic information, the name, the age, the occupation, the residency, the assets that a subscriber has and qualifications for admission. Most of us in this room tonight, or this afternoon, have been asked these questions, and therefore, know what to look for in a petitioner.

Allow me to remind you, for those that may have forgotten, and expand for those who still wonder. We would expect God to tell us where and when he was born. It would be a very interesting response to this question. We would expect God to tell us what he does for a living. Also an interesting question, does the maker, ruler of the worlds qualify? We would expect God to tell us where he has lived in the past year. Now that's an easy one Heaven. Although His presence is everywhere. We would need to know if there are any physical, legal, or moral reasons that would prevent Him from joining. We would also like to know if He has been obeying the laws of the land where He lives. Now this answer could prove to be very difficult if God is everywhere, surely He can't obey all the laws in all of the lands simultaneously. For instance, does He drive on the left or does He drive on the right? I would want to know that before I got on the highway with Him. I don't want to be the first person to have to sue God's insurance company following an accident. Now after the collection of all this information, the Worshipful Master of the Lodge would be obligated to refer the petition to an investigating committee. This would prove to be a very delicate proposition. The questions get tougher. Who in the Lodge would be able to ask such things of God? Do you send the most diplomatic member or the one with the most inquisitive mind? Those with the best speaking skills or the best listening skills. The most aggressive Mason or the least? I really don't think it matters. God knows what's coming and lets hope He approves. Do you want to go and visit with Him? Is your relationship with Him strong enough to withstand this question. Furthermore, is your relationship with and confidence in Freemasonry strong enough to recommend the maker and ruler of all the worlds for admission? If so, answering God's inevitable questions about the Craft will go easy for you. Discussing the benefits of belonging to the worlds oldest and largest fraternity does not pose any problem for the well informed. A Brother, who knows, believes, and lives the tenets of the doctrines of Freemasonry, has no trouble discussing them with anyone. It would be a great joy having this discussion with one who was present when King Solomon's temple was built. Imagine the things we could learn. The questions we could have answered in our minds. But wait, this is a discussion investigating God and His qualifications, not ours. This interviewer would have to ask several more questions, much like the ones on the petition. Some of which would inquire into some of God's personal habits. Depending upon the jurisdiction He applied in. He might be asked about His involvement with intoxicating liquors, immoral habits. Indecent language, gambling, education and intelligence. These answers, much like the previous ones, might prove to be very interesting. As maker and ruler of all the world God is positively involved in the manufacture and distribution of intoxicating liquors. In fact every day, somewhere, strong drink is taken In His name. This could be a tough call. Immoral habits. I doubt it. He has allowed enough in His subjects to rid Himself of the desires of man, I'm sure. Indecent language. If there were subjects under my direction who behaved the way we sometimes do, I am certain I could develop a very nasty vocabulary under my breath. As far as the gambling thing goes, I feel God has taken the greatest gamble in the world and continues to do so every day. Placing us in this world and letting us find our way with only the direction of the written word Is one of the most tremendous gambles. Sometimes it pays big dividends, sometimes it is completely devastating. Of this I am certain. Since God knows all and sees all, I feel sure His education and Intelligence is sufficient to understand the value the doctrines and tenets of Ancient Craft Masonry. Based on these answers and knowing what we know about the Brethren in the Lodge do you think God would be recommended for admission? How would you report back to your Lodge? What would the ballot result? There are always, in every Lodge, those who interpret loosely, and those that go by the letter of the law. Strictly by the book. I feel that even though we use the word of God as the word and guide of our faith, we tum to Him for guidance before
2004-2005
Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
each and every undertaking and we use His written guide as a piece of furniture, necessary to hold a meeting of our Fratemity. God may not get in. Maybe we need to take a closer look at ourselves to be certain that we lead a Fraternity that is worthy of having God as a member. For if we don't go into the world and better it we aren't deserving of His membership. Maybe we expect too much of ourselves. Are our standards too high? Is the task of making good men better enough? We must see ourselves as significant enough in our own lives and in our own communities to be worthy of God's petition.
Above all else we must be absolutely certain that the wortÂŤ we do always brings honor to God's holy name. And if we do this relentlessly do we even need God in the Lodge? You bet your sweet potatoes we do. So how do we accomplish this if we won't let him in? You don't need to let Him through the door, He's already here. Proverbs 3 verse 15 tells us the eyes of the Lord are in every place. Beholding the evil and the good. We bring in Him with each and every one of us Psalms 118 verse 22 says, the stone, which the builders refused, has become the new cornerstone. This is the Lord's doing and it is marvelous. Our spiritual cornerstone is this very stone. We bring the Lord into our Lodges and our lives through ourfaith. We must make this conscious effort everyday, everywhere, God provides us the direction, He lights the path. It is the choice we make, not only in our Lodges, but in our lives, also, that proves that God is with us. Bring Him, God wants to help you. Let Him. Bring Him into your Lodges, your home, your families and your lives.
The many rhetorical questions posed here are simply provided for introspection and find out for yourself if when making the decisions that direct your actions do you let God's wisdom, strength, and beauty be your guide. Open your heart and let God help in your life, after all, I don't really think He's going to come knocking. In His holy name. Amen." Alas, our Brothers, we cherished their memory here. We commend their spirit to God who gave tt. As they enjoy the unending and unceasing felicity allotted the souls of just men made perfect, we lay you in the hands of our Father. For you may worship Him face to face throughout eternity. And as we travel this veil of tears that we travel here below, may we be worthy of to be accepted and here the most excellent words "well done, good and faithful servant, enter now into thy into the joys of thy Lord". Amen, So Mote It Be

GRAND MASTERS ADDRESS As the 151='Annual Communication of the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas is beginning to unfold, I want to welcome every one of you to this very special celebration of Freemasonry in our state. I thank everyone for taking time to travel to participate and enjoy the sessions and activities that we have planned for you. We have many proposals for change for Kansas Masonry to consider and it is very pleasing to the Grand Lodge Officers that we have so many active members working to keep our great Fraternity in step with our present and future. I could have never dreamed the scenario that placed me here at this time in my life. Being the Grand Master of Kansas was a long time dream of mine, but the trail to get here has been one that I was not sure that I could endure. I stand here alone as Grand Master, but the support of the Grand Lodge officers, their ladies and you, the Craft of the best jurisdiction in the entire world have made this journey possible, both physically and emotionally. I have not been able to fulfill all of the appointed dates that I could have done under normal
2006-2007
Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
43
circumstances. I have not been able to complete some of the ideas that I had planned to do as I ascended up the elective line. For this, I am regretful. However, I did the best that I could and still be the best Dad that I could be for my son, Kyle. Many of you have heard me say that if I can serve for five years and Kyle retains his admiration and respect for Masons and Masonry, I will consider my service a success. Because of you, your caring and outward display of affection, I am assured that Kyle still thinks that Masons are an alright group. In facL many places that he traveled with me, he received as much attention or more than I and he thought that was just fine. Several times I had to ask him who some persons were because he became acquainted with some that I had not had the privilege of knowing as well as him. FINANCES There is good news and there is bad news with regard to your Grand Lodge finances. First, I will report the good news. Under the direction of your Grand Lodge Finance Committee, the net worth of Kansas Grand Lodge has grown. I am pleased to announce that the donations received from the address return label program brought the Grand Lodge Endowment Fund to over $1 million. I thank you for your participation in that promotion. We expect that the new credit card offered by Grand Lodge will bring in additional funds. Beginning this year we will enjoy the additional income from the increase in per capita tax that was approved by the Craft at our last Annual Communication. Our continuing trend of membership decline requires the remainder of us to not only maintain the status quo, but attempt to increase the programs, charity and good will of Kansas Masons. Again, I thank the Craft for seeing the need and approving the passage of this additional revenue. All accounts have been prudently invested and are bringing returns that are much higher than ordinarily expected. This brings me to the bad news. We have been privileged to enjoy the expertise of Bro. Mark Morris and his exceptional investment capabilities. He has been very active on the Finance Committee and because of him; we were able to realize very pleasing growth of our investments. Bro. Morris was called to the Grand Lodge Above unexpectedly on January 14, 2007 in Topeka. Rest assured that there has always been a back-up plan in place and it is currently functioning as expected. COUNCIL OF ADMINISTRATION I would like to make a statement that will explain this subject. The Grand Lodge of Kansas is being managed by an extremely devoted, dedicated and very capable group of Masons that will serve you well for many years to come. Not only will they serve you well, they have been my support and encouragement this past year. There are literally hundreds of Masonic meetings in Kansas each year and they have been responsive to be in attendance at every one that they could when I could not be there in person. I cannot thank them enough and I am eternally indebted to each of them. PAST GRAND MASTERS I have always had and will always have the utmost respect for the Past Grand Masters. I know what they sacrificed and understand the commitment that they made in years past. My thanks to those of you that counseled me and offered words of encouragement when I needed them. Several are still serving on various committees and they make presentations to Kansas Masons when current Grand Lodge officers cannot be present. M.-.W.-. Glenn E. Kohr had the confidence in me to select me as his Grand Senior Deacon. I hope that I have lived up to his expectations. I am very proud to be counted in the line of Grand Masters that is led by M.-.W.-.Forrest D. Haggard. APPOINTIVE GRAND LODGE OFFICERS At virtually every Grand Lodge opening and presentation date across the state, I was pleasantly surprised by the attendance of the appointive officers. These Masons and ladies arrived from all comers of Kansas to represent your Grand Lodge and show support for the Grand Master. Thank you does not seem adequate. Each of you were invited to serve because of a special relationship that we have. Brotherly love and respect for each other has grown
44
Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
2006-2007
even stronger this year and I will remember your devotion, kindnesses and commitment to me and Kansas Masonry forever. My brother, David Molstad, served me as a representative of St. Thomas Lodge in Colby, KS, but also a member of my family and I was honored to have him as Grand Tyler this year. L. Kent Needham was and is my first choice as my replacement in the Grand Lodge line. Those of you that know him understand that he is a man of great values, family devotion and great intelligence. I could not be more proud of a Masonic son and I know the Grand Lodge of Kansas will enjoy the benefits of his abilities. Additionally, we need to continue the line of Grand Masters that are called by their middle name. ADGM'S, DOOM'S, GRAND LECTURERS, COMMITTEEMEN Each of you were selected by your peers and appointed by me to serve in your capacity this year. Naturally, it is easy to decline the honor. Yet, you stepped up and volunteered your time, not only in the Lodges, but behind the windshield. You gave of your talents and expected nothing in return except the satisfaction of knowing that you had done your job. No job is complete until the paper work is finished and I thank you for your dedication to see that the job was done. It is especially pleasing that we have Brothers seeking proficiency cards and are preparing to become our next generation of Ritualists and Lecturers. Congratulations to each of you. GRAND LODGE OFFICE AND STAFF Our Grand Secretary, Robert B. Pfuetze, is and has been one of my very best friends these past few years. He frequently reminded me that he could keep a Grand Master from looking like a fool as long as we were friends and communicated frequently. I like Bob and I called him every day. Seriously, he is one of the most knowledgeable and accommodating men that I know and he has been instrumental in taking care of the business of the Grand Lodge. We are a business and we impact not only the Topeka economy, but all over the State of Kansas. I feel very privileged to have been able to work with and alongside my Brother Bob Pfuetze. Jan Nelson knows more about Masonry than many Masons and she is an important link to every Lodge in Kansas as well as other jurisdictions. She is around Masonry all day and she understands how Masons think. I thank her for her dedication and ability to get the work of the Grand Lodge performed in a professional and timely manner. Nancy Johnston's voice is known by virtually every Lodge Secretary. She greets and usually is able to handle the requests of the Lodges. Chuck Hoffmeister does it all. If it needs fixed, he can do it. I cannot express how appreciative I am for all of their efforts and I commend them for their service and loyalty. We now have a newly decorated Lodge room in the Grand Lodge building and I invite each of you to come and view this nice Masonic Lodge that is being used every month. APPENDANT BODIES Being a member of several appendant organizations has always been a source of pride and pleasure for me personally. I have been bestowed with honors from these organizations and I have given my time to these groups in the past whenever possible. The honor and respect shown to me this year from the Shrine, Scottish Rite, York Rite and Order of the Eastern Star, all of which I hold memberships, was appreciated and will be always remembered. I hope that we can all continue to work in the same direction and make this a better Fraternity. Our charities need our cooperation. RULINGS AND SPECIAL DISPENSATIONS After the fact, I regret that I gave as many special dispensations that I was requested to provide. I believe that we need to make every effort to provide the services of our Lodges according to our by-laws. Bending the rules, creating short-cuts and loosening of ritual requirements have become somewhat of a norm instead of the special situation that we have provisions for. I would hope that we all reconsider our priorities and work to make
2006-2007

45
Masons and rule and govern our Lodges with regularity. Lodges need to continue to do the good work of Freemasonry as it has been designed. MEMBERSHIP As in any business or organization, things change. Our numbers are declining and the age of our members is changing. Masons expect much from their membership, but our members must be willing to give as much or more as they receive. Many of our members reside outside of the state. Many of our members are to the point in life that they cannot participate as they would like to. That leaves few of us to provide services and charity for many and I know that we can accept this responsibility. The time has come to forgive and forget, forever, any wrongdoings that a Brother Mason may have done to you, knowingly or unknowingly and work for the best interest of Masonry. Sometimes that may not agree with your ideas, wills or pleasures, but we must agree to work in unity to achieve a common good. Please take this to heart and you will feel better and enjoy our Fraternity as it is meant to be enjoyed. PERPETUAL LIFE MEMBERSHIP What a great report this is! I choose to believe that many of you heard me talk about this program this past year and you were so excited about what I explained to you that you couldn't wait to write a check. I thank you for your enthusiasm and willingness. Kansas Masons invested in 679 Lifetime Perpetual Memberships this year. Additionally, there were 72 Memorial Memberships purchased. CONGRATULATIONS! These contributions totaled $488,000.00, bringing the total amount in the fund to $1,708,952.98. These funds will endow our Grand Lodge and your Lodge in perpetuity and we thank you for your investment in the future of Kansas Masonry. STATE OF KANSAS MASONRY My Brothers, we are all aware of the fact that our numbers are declining. What are we doing wrong or what is it that we are not doing correctly that we lose over 1,000 members each year to lack of interest? Grand Lodge programs and training sessions are designed to make better leaders of our officers. If these Lodge officers do not take the initiative to involve other Masons and utilize the tools that they have, our members lose their enthusiasm and find other functions and venues to spend their time and efforts. The local Lodge must create and perpetuate activities that involve every member that they can. Kansas is a very diverse State and something that is successful in western Kansas may not be effective in other parts of our jurisdiction. Change meeting nights or change Lodge opening times to accommodate your particular membership. The Grand Lodge of Kansas stands poised to assist any Lodge in restructuring their organization to meet the will and pleasure of its membership. Lodge leadership must be able to identify changes that should be made and plan accordingly. We can resurrect our presence and importance to society and we need to proceed immediately. HIGHLIGHTS Several items come to mind when I think of the highlights of this past year. I have been presented with some very nice mementos of various occasions that I have been privileged to attend. The lambskin and gavel from the Oak Tree gathering is a very prized possession and I will always remember that night. Walking at the lead of the Shrine Bowl parade in Pittsburg with Imperial Potentate Nick Thomas was a terrific thrill. Thanks to the generosity of the five Kansas Shrine Temples, Kyle and I were able to join the Potentates and Divans in Tampa, Florida for the Imperial Shrine session. I learned a great deal about Shrinedom and was very proud to wear my ISIS fez. The Kansas Masonic Home has provided me with a very nice apartment to stay at free of charge whenever I was in Wichita. This saved many dollars. The Board and staff of the KMH provided a stone in memory of my departed wife in the Bill and Jessie Brown memorial garden. What a beautiful tribute! W.-.Bob Wydra hosted Kyle and me in Missouri for a very enjoyable fishing trip. Rounds of golf with Brother Masons, hunting trips with Brother Masons and spending time with our older Masons and learning about Kansas Masonry back in the good old days are memories that I will enjoy forever.

The Kansas Masonic Foundation has honored me several times this past year and I am very proud to be a member of the Board of Directors of that outstanding Masonic philanthropy. Kansas Masons are being recognized by the good works of the Kansas Masonic Foundation. Hosting the Midwest Conference of Grand Lodges this past August was a rare honor and privilege. Wichita was the city of choice and 11 Grand Masters and their delegations were welcomed and treated to the very best that Kansas has to offer. The Grand Lodge Officers and Ladies of Kansas were the perfect hosts to this conference which has not been held in Kansas for many, many years. Illustrious James Tresner of Oklahoma was our guest speaker. Leaders of every jurisdiction from Kansas to Canada shared information of successes in their Grand Lodges. The Masons of Kansas can be very proud of their Grand Lodge Officers and the conference in Kansas."
FAMILY If it were not for my family, I would not have been able to serve as Grand Master of Kansas. My Dad introduced me to Masonry at an early age as he served as Potentate of ISIS Shrine. He then brought me to the world of Masonry when I turned 21 years of age and encouraged me to get involved. I guess I did just that. Nineteen months ago, my life took another turn when my wife, Karen, died. Being Grand Master is challenging enough in a normal situation. Being a single parent, a partner in a family business and looking at devoting a year to Kansas Masonry was a challenge that I could not have considered without the unfaltering support of my two Brothers and business partners, David and Stan. My Mother and sisters have been very helpful around our house and my sister-in-law and nieces have been actual sisters to Kyle and treated him as a younger brother. My one and only son, Kyle, has been a great traveling partner for me when he was able to go. He recently became an Eagle Scout and has been active in school, the high school basketball team and the golf team. I have attended almost all of his activities and he has been very understanding of the functions that I missed when I was needed elsewhere. Since 1978, M.-.W.-. Chester L. and Rachael Gilbert have been very close friends and Masonic mentors. I have to mention them in the same breath and sentence, as they are that close to one another and to me. They have hosted me in their home countless times and we have shared many happy and sad moments. I treasure their friendship and loving support. I love you all very much and I always will.
CLOSING This is the end of an era in Kansas Masonry. I thank you all for the opportunity to have served as the Grand Master of Kansas. The many honors and kindnesses will never be forgotten. You will soon have a new Grand Master and the Council of Administration is ready to lead the Masons of Kansas into better and exciting times ahead. I wish them the very best and applaud their leadership and devotion. I hope that I have been able to touch each of you in some small way so that you will remember J. Steven Molstad of Colby, Kansas, Grand Master of Kansas Masons 2006-07.

FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT (from the Advanced Report) The members of the Finance Committee are pleased to report that during the year 2006/2007 the financial position of the Grand Lodge of Kansas has again been maintained. Our investments are up approximately 17% for the year and have again out-performed the U.S. markets. Our Grand Master has kept the Grand Lodge expenses within budget limits. The addition to the Grand Lodge Endowment Fund this year exceeded $26,000. During the year, the Finance Committee has regularly reviewed Grand Lodge accounts and regularly compared revenues and expenses with the projected budget amounts to that date. Additionally, the Committee reviewed all investments of the Grand Lodge, seeing that all income was collected and reinvested or transferred to general funds as needed. Ageneral survey of Grand Lodge property was made and it was determined to be in satisfactory condition. The members of the Grand Lodge Finance Committee thank Most Worshipful J. Steven Molstad for his leadership, cooperation and assistance. We are most appreciative for the opportunity to serve the Grand Lodge of Kansas during 2006/2007.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Council of Administralion Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position of Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas and affiliates (the Grand Lodge) as of December 31, 2006, and the related consolidated statements of activities and cash flows for the year then ended. These fmancial statements are the responsibility of the Grand Lodge's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these fmancial statements based on our audit. The prior year summarized comparative information has been derived from the Grand Lodge's 2005 financial statements and, in our report dated January 25, 2006, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements arefi^eeof 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. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consohdated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas and affiUates as of December 31, 2006, and the changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. The schedule of expenses on page 11 is presented for purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic consohdated financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

Organization and Summair of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Investments Investments in marketable securities are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses are included in the change in net assets in the consolidated statement of activities. Inventory Inventories of Masonic merchandise are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost determined by the first-in, first-out method. Property and Equipment Purchased property and equipment are carried at cost. Donated property and equipment are carried at the approximate fair value at the date of donation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the useful life of the asset, between 5 and 40 years. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accoimts, and any resulting gain or loss is included in income for the period. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred; signiiicant renewals and betterments are capitalized. Contributions The Grand Lodge reports gifts of cash and other assets as restricted support if they are received with donor stipulations that limit the use of the donated assets. When a donor restriction expires, that is, when a stipulated time restriction ends or purpose restriction is accomplished, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and reported in the statement of activities as net assets released fi-om restrictions. Contributions whose use is limited by donorimposed stipulations that neither expire by passage of time nor can be fulfilled or otherwise removed by actions of the Grand Lodge are recorded as permanently restricted net assets.

Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassifications Certain items fi^om the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
REPORT OF THE GRAND TREASURER Grand Treasurer, Clifford D. Knauss, thanked the Grand Secretary for the work he does in accumulating and preparing the finances each month. He handles all of those items and his knowledge and assistance is very valuable. He went on to say that after the loss of Brother Mark Morris a replacement, Mr. Mark Young, will be handling some of our investments. Mr. Young worked very closely with Brother Morris. He then thanked the Grand Master for the opportunity to serve. A motion was made and seconded that the report be accepted.
REPORT OF THE GRAND TREASURER (from the Advanced Report> To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: In the opinion of your Grand Treasurer, 2006 has been a good year for our Grand Lodge. The increase in Per Capita passed at our last Grand Lodge session should give needed relief over the next several years for our operating budget. Thank you. Brothers, for supporting this legislative item. Again this year our investments have done well. Earned income on investments continue to be above the S & P 500 index. Our Finance Committee is doing a good job for our membership. The future of numerous of our lodges has been some what more secured by the increase of Perpetual Life and Memorial Memberships purchased this year. It is great to know that so many Brothers have decided to take advantage of this option. A review of our financials over the past year again confirms, in my opinion, that the Council of Administration and the elected and appointed Grand Lodge officers take their responsibilities seriously and should be acknowledged for their good work. Your continued support is appreciated. Respectfully submitted, Clifford D. Knauss, PGM, Grand Treasurer

2006 Report of the Kansas Masonic Foundation, Inc. (from the Advanced Report) To the M..W.. Grand Lodge of AF&AM of Kansas: Your Kansas Masonic Foundation was established in 1966 as a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization for the purpose of expanding Masonic Philanthropy in the fields of charitable, educational and scientific programs. The Foundation continues to tal<e that to a new level due to a $15 million pledge that led to the re-naming of the University of Kansas Medical Center's Kansas Cancer Institute to the Kansas Masonic Cancer Research Institute in January 2004. The gift will help the institute in its effort to achieve designation as a National Cancer Institute Comprehensive Cancer Center a designation that will not only benefit Kansas residents but everyone in the region. NCI designation will bring new research, new resources for determining and providing more effective treatments, and greater opportunities for Institute staff to collaborate with the finest researchers across the state and the world. The Foundation continued a successful cancer screening outreach program in which doctors and nurses from KU conducted free one-day clinics and seminars. These clinics were scheduled on different days at six various Lodges across the state. The host sites for 2006-07 included Garden City, Goodland, Salina, Emporia, Yates Center and Ottawa. 2007-08 host Lodges will be announced in the spring of 2007. If your Lodge is interested in being a host, please contact the Foundation office during business hours. The C-Club continues to be an important part of the Foundation. As always we invite Brother Masons and their families to come and view the Wall of Honor that is located at the Foundation office on the second floor of the Grand Lodge Building in Topeka. The Foundation welcomed two new Board of Trustees in 2006. They are Nick Roach of Topeka and R:.W:. Roy T Sullivan, Jr. of Topeka. Brother Roach was raised to the Sublime Degree of a Master Mason in 1984 with Siloam Lodge #225, AF&AM. He also holds memberships in the Topeka Scottish Rite and Arab Shrine Temple, where he currently serves as Treasurer. Brother Sullivan is the current Grand Junior Warden for the M:.W:. Grand Lodge of Kansas, AF&AM. A 33-year Kansas Mason, Sullivan is a member of Topeka Lodge #17, AF&AM where he was Master in 2002. The Foundation's Board is led by M.-.W.-.Jeffrey L. Sowder, PGM (Toronto), who is the President. The Foundation's Board of Directors include: President Sowder; James L. Morton, Executive Vice-President, of Kansas City; Leiand G.

The Partnership for Life Campaign: In November of 2003, the Foundation pledged to increase their fundraising four-fold by pledging $15 million in support of the KU Cancer Center as It seeks to attain National Cancer Institute (NCI) Designation as a Comprehensive Cancer Center. The NCI designation will ensure its status as one of the leading cancer research and treatment centers in the country, alongside of other institutions such as the Mayo Clinic and M.D. Anderson. This resulted in the re-naming of the research center as the Kansas Masonic Cancer Research Institute, bringing outward and highly visible recognition

of the long-time support that Kansas IVIasons have made to the fight against cancer. As of December 31, 2006, $9,670,455.59 has been raised towards the Campaign total. The Foundation has launched Community Action Teams across the state of Kansas to take the message of the campaign, and assist in fund raising, in various Kansas communities. Kansas Masonic Cancer Research Institute: Through generous contributions from the IVIasons of Kansas, and KMF endowment proceeds, the grant to the Kansas Masonic Cancer Research Institute for the 2006-07 fiscal year is $510,000.00. Since 1974, the gifting total is more than the $14 million mark. When the Partnership for Life Campaign is completed, total giving will surpass more than $20 million through the Kansas Masonic Foundation. C-Club: This recognition group of Masonic philanthropists began in 1981. Donors who have made cumulative gifts 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 ($1,000.00-plus); Platinum ($5,000.00-plus); and Philanthropist ($10,000.00-plus). An updated C-Club plaque listing through December 31, 2006, was sent to the Lodges in February, 2007. There is also a Ladies C-Club. Heritage Club: The Heritage Club recognizes the special group of Masons who have chosen to include the Kansas Masonic Foundation in their estate plans. Planned gifts include will bequests, charitable remainder trusts, gift annuities, insurance gifts and other gift vehicles, many of which can have favorable tax implications to the donor. As planned gifts have counting value to the Partnership for Life Campaign, efforts are under way to promote sound estate planning to Kansas Masons and encourage planned gifts to the Foundation. Kansas Masonic All-State Marching Band: Pittsburg State University was host to 230 of Kansas' finest musicians for the 23'" Annual Kansas Masonic All-State High School Marching Band Camp held July 25-29, 2006. We thank the many Blue Lodges and affiliated bodies who sponsored students. We encourage these Masonic-affiliated groups to sponsor a student for the 2007 camp so that we can inform more young people about Masonry. The 2007 camp will be July 24"'-28"' at Fort Hays State University. Student Loan and Scholarship Program: A total of 22 new loans were granted in 2006 and 14 loans were paid in full, bringing the total of outstanding loans to 187. As of December 31, 2006 the amount of the remaining loans is $866,361.95. 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 2007-08 school year is April 16,2007. 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. Sixty seven students have received a total of $184,250.00 in non-solicitable scholarships since 1995. If any Lodges are interested in sponsoring a non-solicitable scholarship through the Foundation, please contact our office. The Cynthia Ruth Russell Memorial Grants for the physically challenged continued this year and two students were the recipients of those grants, bringing the total amount of scholarships/grants to $216,750.00. More information about the loans/grants is available from the Foundation office or any member of the Board of Trustees. Endowment Fund: This permanent fund ensures the Foundation's ability to continue our programs in the future. Only a portion of the income from this fund is used each year and the principal may never be invaded. The fund consists of Living Memorials and Will Bequests from the Masons of Kansas and their families. Living Memorials are gifts from family, friends and Masonic bodies in honor of a departed Brother. Personnel: Our staff includes: Marilyn Walters, who is our Administrative Secretary; Janel DeLeye, our Accountant; Nancy Lindberg, our Development Director; and M.-.W.-.Mark E. Nelson, PGM, our Executive Director, and Brother Gary Van Cleave, our Assistant Director.

MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE REPORT Butch Buchenau, Benevolent Lodge #98, Abilene, reported on the Membership committee. The report was adopted as printed In the advance reports. MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE REPORT (from the Advanced Report) To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and accepted Mason of Kansas 2006 has been a productive year for the Membership Committee. The Friends of Masons presentations continue to be a successful means of explaining our Fraternity to the uninitiated. We have seen great success stories this year. Lodges in smaller communities, which were apprehensive about the attendance at their presentation, were greatly surprised. There have been presentations with 20 to 75 people in attendance. This was the result of good planning and good promotion. These Lodges have followed the suggested guidelines in the Plan for Success. I urge each of you to study the Annual Report Summary by Lodge at the back of the Advance Report and then In the Annual Proceedings. The numbers for each Lodge and for our Grand Lodge are self-explanatory. We have no control over the number of our Brothers that are called to that Grand Lodge Above, but we can work to reduce the number of suspensions for non-payment of dues, and we can Increase the number of men that we Initiate Into our Lodge. There are many tools available to Increase membership. It Is a proven fact that the Friends of Masons Night Is one of the best tools that we have. This program can only work with a strong dedication from each Lodge to successful plan a Friends of Masons Night. The Membership Committee is composed of dedicated Brothers who continue to offer their services without compensation for time or mileage. We continue to encourage all Lodges and other Masonic groups to call upon us to assist In presenting positive programs about the benefits of becoming a member of the Greatest Fraternity In the World. The Membership Committee would like to thank R.-.W.-. Robert Pfuetze, and the Grand Lodge Staff, Jan Nelson, Nancy Johnston and Chuck Hoffmeister for their assistance this past year. They are a tremendous resource for the Grand Lodge of Kansas. Each member of this committee wishes to thank M.-.W.-. J. Steven Molstad and the Brethren of this great Fraternity for the opportunity to serve the Grand Lodge of Kansas. Respectfully submitted, M.-.W.-. Lawrence J. Mersberg, PGM and Mervin E. Buchenau Membership Committee Co-Chalrmen Brother Brian Cotter, Colorado, brought greetings from the Grand Master John J. Henington. He said there Is lots of activity In the Lodges In Colorado. They have a successful Child ID program, as well as a Band Camp program that they stole from Kansas and Nebraska continues to grow. The 150* anniversary for Colorado Is coming up In a few years and he Invited everyone to attend. Also the Conference of Grand Master's of North America will be hosted by the jurisdiction of Colorado In February 2011. It is the largest gathering of Grand Master's on the face of the planet. He said that Masons have to be their own cheerieaders, to get out there and be proud of their Fraternity. PRESENTATIONS M.-.W.-. Steve asked for the Grand Tyler, David B. Molstad, to be brought to the altar for a special presentation. He Is now the Kansas Grand Representative to Finland. The certificate from Finland was presented.

Mr. Tabbert has a book, American Freemasons, Three Centuries of Building Communities, that is on sale during the session and he will be available to autograph the books. Sales of the book will go to benefit the Grand Lodge of Kansas. He then explained a project that is in the works to digitize all of the proceedings of all of the Grand Lodges so anyone doing research on the history of the fraternity can search those proceedings. It will be a national database of every Mason in the history of the United States. This database will be a way to honor every Mason in the United States going back to the 1730's. The Memorial is also working on a project with Mount Vernon, local Masons, and Grand Lodges that will provide a framed portrait of George Washington for public buildings and schools. Other projects going on at the Memorial: they are getting ready for the Joint Session of the Supreme Council of Scottish Rite, the International Conference of Grand Master's in 2008 and in 2010 the Grand Master's Conference of North America will be held at the Memorial.

SCOTTISH RITE Hugh Gill was called to the podium to bring remarks from the Scottish Rite. He told M.-.W.-. Steve how much he appreciated being able to serve under him this year as the Deputy for the Supreme Council in Kansas. How everywhere he went he heard everyone say what a "pretty nice guy" M.-.W.-. Steve is. It speaks volumes for the kind of person and job that has been done as Grand Master representing Kansas this year. He then pledged to Right Worshipful Jimmie the support of the Scottish Rite in the coming year. GRAND SECRETARY'S REPORT It was moved and seconded that the report be accepted as printed. The motion carried. REPORT OF THE GRAND SECRETARY (from the Advanced Report> Once again we have had an interesting and busy year. What I enjoy most about the job, is that it changes constantly. This office exists to serve the craft, and all of us try diligently to keep that in mind with every phone call, letter, or request of any kind.
The Local Lodge Database We have added a number of new Lodges to the list of those using our database. Many of these were the result of new Secretaries being elected in our Lodges. At the writing of this report 112 Lodges use our membership database to help them keep information current between Grand Lodge and the Local Lodge. That is not quite half of all of our Lodges. Those Secretaries who use the database have found it to be a great benefit to the Local Lodge, and to themselves. It makes many of their reporting tasks much easier, and those of us at Grand Lodge find it easier to import records from a Lodge's database file than to make changes from a paper report.
Secretaries Seminars I have continued to hold Secretaries Seminars this year. We had five of them with a limited number in each this year. By limiting the number we can have better interaction and can answer more of the specific questions the Secretaries have. I will continue to have these seminars in the coming year, since I believe the Secretaries appreciate them and learn from them. The dates will be announced in a letter to the Lodge Secretaries.
Come and Visit We are extremely proud of our office and our building in Topeka, and would like everyone to see what we have and what we do here. If you are in Topeka, please do not hesitate to stop and visit. We are always glad to see visiting Brothers, and if I am in the office, I am always willing to give guided tours of the facility. If you know in advance that you will be visiting, call and I will be sure to be available. Since you are a part owner of the Grand Lodge building, we want you to be as proud of it as we are.
Reporting and Communication Reporting remains one of our biggest problems. We actually receive the required monthly activity reports from less than half of the Lodges in Kansas that do not report electronically. At the writing this report in mid February, there are still 28 Lodges that have not returned their Annual Reports, paid their per capita tax, or both. These reports were due on January 10th, and it makes my job of compiling.statistics for the advance report extremely difficult when one month after the deadline 11 % of the Lodges have still not reported. It also makes predicting the cash flow of Grand Lodge more difficult as well.
2006-2007
Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas Electronic Registration at the Annual Communication
We continue to improve the electronic registration system at the Grand Lodge session. I have made software changes that help insure fewer mistakes, and I have also personally selected the people who operate the computers. I wish to express my special thanks to Kelly Kraemer, Mark Stephenson, Mark Clanton, Chad Brewer and all the members of the Credentials Committee who worked with me on the electronic registration last year.
Appreciation Each year there are many people I appreciate. First, I appreciate the cooperation I have had from the Grand Master and the Council of Administration this year. Second, I appreciate myofflcestaffvery much. Jan and Nancy always give more than a 100% effort. No matter what you ask them to do, they will overcome every obstacle to see that the gets done in a timely manner. I continually hear praises from those who deal directly with the office staff about their efficiency, knowledge and courtesy. Finally, and certainly not the least important, I appreciate working with the majority of the Secretaries in Kansas. Most of the members really do not realize the amount of work these men do. Many of the Secretaries work for no pay or for only enough to partially cover their out of pocket expenses. The majority of them do their job accurately and on time, and without complaint. I sincerely thank those men for making my job much easier.
Finances The by-laws indicate that the Grand Secretary should make an estimate of revenues and expenses for the coming year. This year we have three enemies in the finances of Grand Lodge. First is declining membership, which will reduce our revenue by somewhere in the neighborhood of $25,000. Second, prices continue to increase for us, just as they have for you. We are no more exempt from inflation than any individual is. In addition some specific costs increased significantly, energy and travel for example. There is another postage rate increase planned for the near future. I provided assistance to the Deputy Grand Master and the Council of Administration in the preparation of the budget, and my best estimate of income and expenses are in agreement with those shown in the Deputy Grand Master's budget published in the Advance Reports. In addition to these estimates of income and expense, you will find a statement of income and expense from my bookkeeping system for the year 2006-2007, which is also part of the report of the Grand Secretary. I also want you to know that we never try to hide the finances from any of the Brethren. If you have specific questions, please ask. I will be happy to explain any income or expense item in our bookkeeping system to any Brother.
Fraternally submitted, Robert B. Pfuetze Grand Secretary

Right Worshipful Russ Reno, Grand Senior Warden from Nebraska brought greetings from the Grand Jurisdiction of Nebraska. On behalf of M.-.W.-. Grand Master, Dean Skokan of Nebraska, he thanked everyone for the hospitality he has received. He said Nebraska is about to celebrate their 1 SO"* anniversary and invited everyone up for that. The observance will culminate in a Masonic memorial service at the Nebraska capital in Lincoln for Brothers that are members of the Nebraska Hall of Fame. He then wished M.-. W.-. Steve continued success. Harry Oberg, III, Junior Grand Warden, Grand Jurisdiction of Wyoming, addressed the brethren. He said Wyoming is receiving more petitions, that they are developing more programs and have tnad great success with those. He said Masons need men who are dedicated to the fraternity, to bring Masonry to the community, bring out the education that has been lost, and teach it to the new members. He then presented the Grand Master a Wyoming Cannon from their Table Lodge ceremony. Donald Campbell, state of Washington - the "real" Washington - brought greetings from the Grand Master, M.-.W.-. Brother Charies McClary. Brother Campbell said membership in Washington is growing and that they attribute most of that growth to their web site. They have a long range plan that includes every Lodge having a web site. The Grand Lodge receives about 10 to 15 hits a month. Most from military people, the average age about 29, and the enthusiasm is growing throughout the state. Community involvement, the CHIPS program, a Bikes for Books program, has also brought attention and membership. A presentation of a likeness of Brother George Washington was made to M.-.W.-. Grand Master Steve from the State of Washington. PERPETUAL LIFE MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE REPORT Perpetual Life Membership Committee report was given by Brother Butch Buchenau. He moved that the report, as given in the advance proceedings be accepted. The motion passed. PERPETUAL LIFE MEMBERSHIP PLAN COMMITTEE (from the Advanced Report) The Executive Council of the Perpetual Life Membership Plan met on January 19, 2006 for the purpose of conducting the annual meeting for the plan year ending October 31, 2005. The Perpetual Life Membership Plan ended the fiscal year ending October 31, 2006 with a record increase in membership of 369, or 30%. 312 of the new members were regular members and 57 were memorials. Total membership is 1,626 consisting of 1,300 regular members and 326 memorials. Preliminary figure of the assets of the plan show an increase of the $376,006 after the pay out of $47,393 to Grand Lodge. Total assets at year end were $1,361,338. The Executive Council voted to continue the 7% return to member lodges. A total of $36,564 will be distributed to the lodges, $20,477 per capita tax, and $2,724 office expense will be issued to Grand Lodge for a total pay out for the year of $59,765. The Executive Council voted to approve this payment. The regular audit of the plan was completed and approved. The Executive Council voted to retain Mari< Morris as investment broker for the year of 2007. The acts of the Executive Council were ratified for the 2006 plan year. Victor Olson was reelected for another four year term on the Executive Council and Officers were elected for 2006 with W.-. Max Bennett as chairman and Victor Olson as Secretary. There was no old or new business to discuss and the meeting was adjourned. Fraternally, W.-. H. Max Bennett, Chaimnan M.-.W.-. Clifford Knauss, PGM, Grand Treasurer R.-.W.-.

M.-.W.-. Grand Master, Steve Molstad called the Grand Senior Deacon, L. Kent Needham, to the East to assist him in making several special presentations. Rick Reichert, Fred E. Miller, Tracy Bloom, James Owens, Gary Adams, David Blocher, Ed Hood, Tom Stevens gathered at the altar, all are either District Deputy Grand Masters or Area Deputy Grand Masters. They have all done outstanding work, and taken exemplary action above and beyond the call of duty on behalf or their district or area. M.-.W.-. Dick Fletcher, Past Grand Master of Vermont, and Executive Secretary Masonic Service Association, Silver Springs, Maryland came to the podium and was introduced by M.-.W.-. Grand Master Steve. He was there to bring everyone up to date on what the MSA is doing. First of all, to clarify what is happening at Walter Reed Medical Center. He and his wife have visited the hospital for over 20 years. What has recently been reported in the news regarding poor conditions is the exception rather than the rule. He wanted everyone to know that if they were going to have someone as a patient at the hospital they would receive outstanding medical care. He went on to talk about how Masonry is relevant in today's world. About how the only place in the Middle East where the Christian, the Jewish and the Muslim can come together in peace and harmony is in a Masonic Lodge. That makes the Fraternity very significant today. Masons should be proud. He then presented M.-.W.-. Steve with a Certificate of Appreciation for his abiding interest in and strong support of the Masonic Service Association Programs. M.-.W.-. Steve has given time to the National Hospital Visitation program by personally visiting hospitalized veterans and has provided encouragement to the MSA representatives of Kansas. Past Grand Master Kent Callahan from Oklahoma brought greetings from M.-. W.-. Charles Dick, Grand Master of Masons in Oklahoma. He thanked M.-.W.-.Steve for the invitation and hospitality. A very special presentation of the M.-.W.-. Chester L. Gilbert Traveling Trophy, given to the outstanding Lodge officer, was presented next. Names are submitted to the Grand Master by various people, some nominations are Grand Lodge officers, some are District Deputy Grand Masters. This is the last year for the trophy; the trophy will be placed into retirement in the library at the Grand Lodge building in Topeka. It contains names of very prestigious, very outstanding Masons. Brother Sheldon Lawrence, Worshipful Master of Albert Pike Lodge #303, was this year's recipient. He came highly recommended, and is very deserving. Congratulations to Brother Lawrence. JURISPRUDENCE COMMITTEE REPORT M.-.W.-. T Michael Fegan gave the report from the advance proceedings. He thanked M.-.W.-. Steve for the opportunity to serve the Grand Lodge. He moved that the report be approved as presented. The motion passed. It was then moved and properly seconded that all of the edicts and opinions of the Grand Master be accepted. The motion passed. PROPOSED CONSTITUTION AND BY-LAW CHANGES Note that wording to be removed has been struck out, those words for oxompic, and any additions are underlined, these words for example. The following two proposals were tabled at the 2006 Annual Communication. A Special Interim Committee was appointed to study the Issues involved, and report at the 2007 Annual Communication. 2006 Proposal #3 3-619. Serving of Alcoholic Beverages â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The serving or consumption of any bcvcrogc having o recognized or indicated alcoholic content at any communication or aocial function of any Lodge shall be deemed on offense against the Body of Mosonry. This docs not preclude lodges from renting their facilitioo, except Lodge rooms, to groups where alcoholic beverages are served, but not sold. Alcoholic beverages

2006-2007
(hereafter referred to simply as "alcohol") may be served and consumed within lodges in accordance with the following provisions: « The oermissible types of alcoholic beverages, if anv. can be established by each lodge « No alcohol to be stored, served, or consumed in the lodoe room proper (the room in which Masonic ceremonies are normally conducted) on anv occasion » Alcohol stored in the lodoe building must be stored locked UP » Alcohol may only be served to Masons and their invited guests » Alcohol cannot be sold or have any fee associated with the serving of alcohol » No alcohol can be served or consumed prior to the opening of a lodoe or anv other Masonic ritual « The only official Masonic meeting(s) during which alcohol may be served and consumed are Table Lodges and Festive Boards » Each lodoe that permits alcohol must be aware of. and operate in accordance with, all federal, state, and local laws « Each lodge that permits alcohol must submit to Grand Lodge copies of all local and municipal laws and ordinances that govern the serving and consumption of alcohol PRIOR TO the initial serving of alcohol « Each lodge that permits alcohol must relieve the Grand Lodge of anv and all legal liability » A lodoe must ballot to allow alcohol (see separate rules on this) « A lodoe can adopt its own rules to make the serving and consumption of alcohol more restrictive, but never more permissive than what's specified by the Grand Lodge of Kansas » Alcohol can not be served or consumed as part of anv function sponsored by a Masonic vouth organization « Temperance must be observed » Brotherly love and harmony must not be infringed Lodges mav rent their facilities, except Lodge rooms, to groups where alcoholic beverages are served but not sold. (Amended 1982, 2002, 2006). Cross Reference: By-Laws, Chapter 1, By-Law 3-622 Rationale: It would be really nice if we could have a celebration in the lodge building following a degree conferral with good food and wine and/or champagne. Each of us only goes through our own degree ceremony once — it's a very special occasion. Additionally, there are other special occasions as well, such as the anniversary of a lodge and annual installation of officers. There is nothing wrong with the idea of a group of brothers sharing a glass of wine after a meeting or degree conferral. Additionally, by-law 1-110 (Duties of Members of Organizations Predicated upon Masonic Affiliation) states that Masons are to be bound by the same standards of conduct while attending a function of a Masonic affiliated organization. Since many Masons regularty consume alcoholic beverages in Shrine temples, and perhaps other affiliated organizations, there Is an inconsistency between the current by-law which prohibits alcoholic beverages and the consumption of alcoholic beverages by Masons at Shrine functions.

Dardeau Member, Lenexa Lodge #135, Lenexa, Kansas This proposed By-Law was Withdrawn. 2006 Proposal #3A Proposed New By-Law — Predicated on Passage of Amended By-Law 3-619 622-622.

The balloting must take place on a regular, stated communication. The ballot to allow/ rescind must take place at least 45 days from the date that the motion passed. The proposal to allow/rescind alcohol must be distributed, in writing, to all members of the lodge at least 30 davs prior to the ballot on the stated communication. A simple maioritv of the ballot is required for the allow/rescind proposal to pass. Fraternally submitted, Paul J. Dardeau Member, Lenexa Lodge #135, Lenexa, Kansas This proposed By-Law was Withdrawn. The committee wishes to substitute the following proposal for the two above: 2007 Proposal #1 3-619. Serving of Alcoholic Beverages—The serving or consumption of any beverage having o recognized or indicotod alcoholic content at any communication or social function of any Lodge shall be doomed an offense against the Body of Masonry. This does not preclude lodges from renting their facilities, except Lodge rooms, to groups where alcoholic bcvcrogca are served, but not sold. No member shall serve or consume any beverage containing any alcohol in a Blue Lodge. EXCEPT, a^ for ritualistic purposes: or b) at a Table Lodge. Ladies Table Lodge of Affection ceremony or a Festive Board. (Amended 1982, 2002, 2007). Cross Reference: By-Laws, Chapter 1. The Rationale for the proposed change to this By-Law is to eliminate the concern of a double standard concerning a Mason serving alcohol or consuming alcohol and any apparent ambiguity of the current By-Law as it relates to the conduct of Masons while at concordant or appendant body functions. On behalf of the committee, we are honored to have been able to serve the most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Kansas with this Special assignment. Respectfully submitted, Special Interim Committee Allan L. Hurlburt; Paul Dardeau; Glenn E. Kohr; Doug Jessup; Roy Sullivan This proposed By-Law was Defeated.
Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
2006-2007
At the 2006 Annual Communication, the following Proposal was tabled, and the Trials and Punishments Committee was asked to study and address the issue raised in Proposal #5: Proposal #5-2006 5-106. Grand Master's Suspension/Expulsion of a Brother - If the Grand Master suspends or expels a brother, a specific reason and details of the offense must be given to the brother at the time of the suspension or expulsion. Within 60 davs of the suspension or expulsion, a trial by peer Master Masons must be held. This trial consists of 5 Master Masons who will hear the evidence and decide whether the suspension or expulsion will remain in effect. The Grand Lodge must provide 2 Master Masons for the trial, neither of which can be a Grand Lodge officer. The other 3 Master Masons are selected by the District Deputv Grand Master (DDGM) for the suspended/expelled brother's lodoe. All 3 Master Masons selected by the DDGM must belong to the same district as the brother who has been suspended/ expelled. At least 1 must belong to the same lodoe as the brother who has been suspended/ expelled and at least 1 must belong to a different lodae. The date and time for the trial must be established bv the DDGM. The DDGM must strive to make the date and time convenient for all. The trial must be held at the lodge building of the brother who is suspended/expelled. The DDGM will preside over the trial but cannot vote. The Grand Master (or a designee) must attend and provide his rationale for the suspension/ expulsion. The suspended/expelled brother mav attend and present his side of the storv if he chooses (he must be invited, and his schedule reouirements must be held with the same importance as the others). Once the GM (or his desianeel has made his presentation and the suspended brother has presented his rebuttal (if he chooses), the review panel of 5 Master Masons must vote on the validity of the suspension/expulsion. A simple majority (3 or more) will decide whether the suspension/expulsion remains in effect. If the trial is not held within 60 days, the suspension/expulsion will be automatically reversed. Rationale: A Grand Master's ability to suspend or expel a brother should not be unchecked. Suspensions and expulsions are very harsh punishments that should be reviewed for appropriateness. A timely trial by peer Master Masons would provide essential fairness and help to ensure justice. Fraternally submitted, Paul J. Dardeau Member, Lenexa Lodge #135, Lenexa, Kansas In response to that request, the Committee has submitted the following: There is no place in our laws that the Grand Master has the power or authority to suspend or expel any brother for any reason by himself. The only way to be suspended or expelled except for nonpayment of dues is for charges to be filed by a lodge and referred to the Trials and Punishment committee. This committee does its work and sends its recommendation to the Grand Master for his approval or disapproval. This Proposal #5 does not do away with the Trials and Punishment committee so there would then be two trials for the same offense and the possibility of two different results and the Grand Master would have to decide between them. This would cause much confusion among the craft and we recommend that this not be passed. Don E. Robinett, chairman Glenn E. Kohr, member Delton M. Gilliland, member Ron L. Call, member This proposed By-Law was Withdrawn.

PROPOSED CONSTITUTION AND BY-LAW CHANGES FOR 2007 Note that wording to be removed has been struck out, these words for example, and any additions are underlined, these words for example. Proposal #2 2-300.—Allewoneea to Areo/Dlstrict Deputy Grand Moaters—An Aroa/District Deputy Grand Master shall receive no compensation for his services.—But each Area/District Deputy Grand Master who attends the orientation conference of Area/District Deputy Grand Masters, and all sessions of the Annual Communication at the conclusion of his year as Area/District Deputy Grand Master shall receive the some mileage and per diem as a Lodge Representative unless he is entitled to mileage and expenses under some other provision of the law. An Area/District Deputy Grand Master shall receive no other compensation or rcimbufocment for his services. (Amended 1050, 1050, 1002, 2000.)— 2-309. Allowances to Area/District Deputv Grand Masters—Repealed 2007 Rationale: This is a "housekeeping" change. Since the allowance to Lodge Representatives was repealed in 2003, and this by-law refers to "the same mileage and per diem as a Lodge Representative" it is now meaningless and needs to be repealed. Fraternally submitted, Robert B. Pfuetze, Grand Secretary Past Master, St. Johns Lodge #113 This proposed By-Law was Passed. Proposal #3 3-503. Fees for Special Dispensations—Every application to the Grand Master for a Special Dispensation, except for performing ceremonies attending the laying of cornerstones and the dedication of halls, and for the election and installation of officers to fill vacancies, shall be accompanied by a fee of Five Fifteen Dollars. If the dispensation is granted, the fee shall be transmitted to the Grand Secretary as part of the revenue of the Grand Lodge; but if the dispensation is refused, the fee shall be returned to the Lodge or officer making the application; Provided, That the Grand Master may remit the fee when, in his judgement, the necessities of the case may require. (Amended 2006) Rationale: The charge for receiving a special dispensation has been $5 for as long as anyone can remember. Today the cost of writing a simple business letter has been estimated at about $12.50 considering the salary of the secretary, the paper, envelope, postage, etc. Since we not only must write a letter, complete and print a dispensation form, track the issuing and return of the dispensation, and sometimes write several letters reminding Lodges that the dispensation has not been returned, it is time for this special dispensation fee to be increased. Fraternally submitted. Council of Administration M.-.W.-. Mark E. Nelson, Past Grand Master, proposed an amendment to the above ByLaw in that there be no fee for a Special Dispensation; rather, instead, a fine be assessed for violating the law. This amendment was Defeated. This proposed By-Law was Defeated.

Proposal #4 3-622. Disposition of Records and Artifacts — Lodges or members shall retain, destroy, or dispose of materials of historical significance and retain or dispose of materials of Masonic significance only bv retainino them in a appropriate manner, surrendering them to another lawfully constituted lodge within the Grand Lodge of Kansas, or surrendering them to the custody of the Grand Lodge of Kansas for appropriate archiyino. Exceptions to this shall be bv consent of the Grand Master, or the Grand Treasurer, or another person empowered by the Council of Administration for this purpose. RATIONAL: The heritage and archives of Kansas masonry are too valuable and in-eplaceable to be squandered away, and need to be protected. A similar act was passed, without a single dissenting vote, this year at the Grand Lodge session in New York after there were concerns that lodges were selling their archives, and in one case, their charter! to the highest bidder. These records and materials were developed in an atmosphere of respect, confidentiality and gentlemanly repose and should be treated that way. Respectfully submitted, Joesphe G. Stiles, Union Lodge #7 Assistant Grand Secretary This proposed By-Law was Defeated. Proposal #5 4-410. Occasional Lodges— Lodges with memberships of 45 or less Master Masons members residing within 25 miles of the Lodge, and who are physically able to attend. may elect, by a majority of its membership present at a Stated Communication of the Lodge, to become an Occasional Lodge, thereby, operating and being governed under the following regulations: (no other changes in the by-law as it currently exists)
(Amended 2006)
Rationale: The total number of members in a Lodge is no indication of how many could attend Lodge. Many Lodges in Kansas have half or more of their members living so far from the Lodge that it would be unreasonable to expect them to attend. Therefore raw membership numbers should not be the sole criterion for becoming an Occasional Lodge. Fraternally submitted, Council of Administration This proposed By-Law was Passed. Proposal #8 4-206. Proficiency Examination—The examination of a candidate upon his proficiency may be conducted while the Lodge is open on the Degree previously attained by the candidate or at any time at the Lodge hall in the presence of a committee consisting of a minimum of three Master Masons appointed by the Master for the purpose of conducting the proficiency examination. This The minimum proficiency will be one of the following: 1} the memory work as contained in the candidate handbook and will include the first and second-degree proficiency. The third degree proficiency examination should be completed but shall be at the option of the candidate. 2) The oral presentation of a paper written bv the candidate explaining the meaning and symbolism of each degree, including an explanation of his understanding of the obligation in each degree. The Masonic Education Committee will report the score of the proficiency support program before the Lodge vote is taken. The vote of the Lodge upon the proficiency of the candidate shall be taken with the candidate excused. If the Proficiency was demonstrated to a committee, then the vote shall be taken in open Lodge only after a favorable recommendation has been made by a majority of the committee examining the candidate. At the time the Lodge Secretary reports the degreefs> to Grand Lodge, he will also certify fon a form provided bv Grand Lodge) that the proficiency was reouired. which form of proficiency the candidate used, and the date
2006-2007

it was completed. A candidate receiving a shortened version of the degree work, such as in a one-dav conferral, will not be exempt from this proficiency, and his completion of the proficiencv. unless specificallv waived bv the Grand Master, must also be certified bv the Lodge Secretarv. (Amended 1967,1988, 1991,1993, 2006). Cross-Reference: By-Laws, Sec. 3-403. Rationale: It is widely recognized that many Lodges do not require the proficiency as mandated by law. The new Brothers are the ones being hurt by the Lodges' not requiring proficiency. How can a Brother be held to his obligations if he doesn't even know what he promised? How can he hope to prove himself a Mason, so he can visit other Lodges, if he is never required to learn signs, grips, and words. This change gives an optional proficiency, but also requires the Secretary to certify the proficiency thus insuring that the Lodge is requiring the proficiency, as the law says it must. Fraternally submitted, Robert B. Pfuetze, Grand Secretary Past Master, St. Johns Lodge #113 This proposed By-Law was Defeated. Proposal #7 4-212. Work on Several Candidatesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;The Entered Apprentice Degree shall be conferred in a Lodge room setting and must be conferred individuallv on onlv one candidate at a time. All other portions of the work may be conferred on up to three candidates at the same time without special dispensation of the Grand Master. (Amended 1992, 1995, 2007.) CrossReference: By-Laws, Sec. 3-402. Rationale: Of all of the degrees, the first degree makes the single greatest impression on a candidate. Every candidate deserves the opportunity to have this be an individual experience. It should never be conferred in an auditorium setting or with multiple candidates either participating or simply watching. Respectfully submitted, Chad A. Brewer, Olathe Lodge #19 Paul J. Dardeau, Auburn Lodge #32 This proposed By-Law was Defeated. Proposal #8 1-11QA. Membership in Organizations Predicated upon Masonic Affiliationâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;No Master Mason shall be permitted to join another organization predicated upon Masonic affiliation until 180 davs after he receives his Third Degree. Rationale: A newly raised Master Mason needs time to study and reflect what has happened to him. The attempt to get a new Master Mason to rush to join other organizations, however well meaning, only serves to confuse him and make him feel pressured. Once he has been a Master Mason for a period of time he will have had the opportunity to visit with others and learn about the organizations he may be interested in joining. The probability that he will remain a member of those organizations for a long time is also greater if he joins them from a position of understanding of what they are rather than simply because he was handed a petition the night of his Third Degree and told that this is his next step. Respectfully submitted, Chad A. Brewer, Olathe Lodge #19 This proposed By-Law was Defeated.

CHURCH-LODGE RELATIONS COMMITTEE There is little to report for we have heard nothing of importance regarding church-lodge relations. It seems good to remind all members of Masonry that all mentions of Christianity, God prayer, etc. in our society today is under fire. We all know that faith in God is a first requirement to be a Mason. Could it be that we too may come under fire? Whatever you may think of Dr. James Dobson, his recent comment, "We're at a pivotal point in the history of this country. Be a participant. Don't sit on the sidelines while our basic freedoms are lost." Surely, on this point we have a like view as our churches. Arris Johnson, Chair
CORRESPONDENCE COMMITTEE It is with great sadness that we report on the passing of these pillars of World Wide Masonry. All, men of great integrity, these Brethren lived their lives in accordance with our Masonic Teachings. It can be said that each, by the regularity of their behavior, provided the best example for those who followed them. To each we render theaccolade. Well Done, Good and Faithful Servant.

Kent Needham. Invited guests were W.-. Adiey Johnson & Mark L. Morris of the Grand Lodge Finance Committee. Other meetings were held on April 21-22, May 6, June 3, June 25, July 29, September 16, November 13 & 17, and December 2, 2006, and January 17, 2007, at various locations throughout the state of Kansas as deemed necessary by the Most Worshipful Grand Master. Some of the highlights of these meetings are as follows: Masonic widows need to be more actively included in local Lodge activities, and lodges should keep them on their mailing lists. Widows can continue to receive "The Kansas Mason" for $7.00/year. Discussed & approved a bank affinity card that would pay the Grand Lodge $25 for each new card signed up for by members, as well as a percentage of purchases made. Hosted the Midwest Conference of Grand Lodges in August in Wichita, and had representatives from all 11 member Grand Lodge jurisdictions were in attendance. Conducted an address label fundraiser and a Masonic watch fundraiser that generated approximately $30, 000 in revenues needed to support Grand Lodge activities for 2006-7, as the per capita dues increase passed at Grand Lodge this year will not be received until remitted in 2008. The Grand Master issued an edict for Lodges to close "on the level", as a symbol of Masonic equality. Appointed a committee to examine & make recommendations on the tabled bylaw proposal re: alcohol in the local lodge buildings. Elected to participate, as the sponsoring body, in the Child Identification Program (ChiP) to help identify children with photos, fingerprints, etc., that will help & assist in locating them in the event of kidnapping or other disappearance.

FOREIGN RELATIONS COMMITTEE To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: We appreciate the confidence of the Grand Master and the appointment of this committee and the worl^ and support of the Staff of the Grand Lodge who assisted in many ways throughout the year. The following report is submitted for your consideration. GRAND APPOINTMENTS: The Grand Representatives listed have been recommended and are awaiting approval. These are near the Grand Lodge of Kansas: Joesphe G. Stiles, Yorl<, Mexico K. Tyler Curtis, Hungary
Frank L. Nettleton, Hawaii David B. Molstad, Finland
ANDORRA: The Grand Master of Andorra has given approval of the founding of an English speaking lodge under the jurisdiction of the Grand Lodge of Andorra. This lodge is being promoted by a Grand Lodge Officer of English speaking nationality with the intention that this lodge will have international appeal, and will be able to offer work in English speaking Masonic Lodges in Pyrenean region. The consecration was planned for the week ending June 3, 2006. BULGARIA: The Grand Lodge AF&AM Bulgaria has again petitioned The Commission on Recognition to support their claim of being the legitimate Grand Lodge in that country as opposed to the United Grand Lodge of Bulgaria. The controversy goes back to the contested election in November 2000, and the subsequent breakaway of several lodges to form a new Grand Lodge. It appears that both Grand Lodges use the same ritual and generally practice the same Masonry. Attempts to unify the two groups have been unsuccessful. Conflicting information from both groups has made it difficult to accurately assess the cause for this problem, but attempts are ongoing, and successful results are a possibility in the foreseeable future. It has been determined that the United Grand Lodge of Bulgaria meets the standard for recognition, and this Grand Lodge has been so recognized by most regular Grand Lodges worldwide. Until such time that these two Grand Lodges can unite, or agree by mutual consent to share the jurisdiction of Bulgaria, this situation will remain unstable.

Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
ENGLAND: Recently under the United Grand Lodge of England there was a 250"' anniversary celebratory meeting held for the "The Grand Master's Lodge No. 1", at the Mansion House, London. There have been 17 Lord MayorsoftheCity of London who have been members of the Lodge. The GM, HRH the Duke of Kent, the Provincial GM and other senior rulers of the UGLE attend. The festive board was held in the Egyptian Hall. The Lodge was founded in 1756, by English Freemasons who had objected to the "modernization" by the newly created 1717 Grand Lodge, and in reaction to the many Masonic exposures that followed. They styled themselves the "Antients" and the founding Secretary of the Lodge and the first Grand Secretary of the Grand Lodge of the Antients was Laurence Dermott, the author of Ahiman Rezon. The two Grand Lodges were then reconciled and united in 1813. There is a legend that the Grand Master's Lodge took the "No. 1" on the toss of a coin from the Lodge Antiquity (now N9, 2) that was a Time Immemorial (Tl) Lodge. Mauritis: The Grand Lodge of Maurtius was consecrated March 12, 2005 by the Grand Lodge of Nationale Francaise, and id comprised of eight lodges previously consecrated by the GLNF between 1992 and 2004, one Scottish Lodge dating back to 1864, one English Lodge dating to 1877 and one French Lodge dating back to 1778. The consecration date was the 37*' anniversary of the independence of Maurutius. The Commission on Recognition is of the opinion that this Grand Lodge meets the standards for recognition. Morocco: There continues to be two Grand Lodges in Morocco: The Grand Lodge Du Rouaume Du Maroc (GLRM), headed by Bouchaib El Kouhi: and the Grand Loge Reguliere Rouame du Maroc (GLRM), headed by Baud Lahrichi. There was an attempt by the founding Grand Master, Emile H. Ouaknine to unify these two bodies, and until this is accomplished, the Grande Loge Reguliere du Royaume du Maroc (GLRM) is still considered to be the recognized Grand Lodge in that country. Conference of Grand Masters PRINCE HALL CONFERENCE OF GRAND MASTERS A letter has been received from the Prince Hall Conference of Grand Masters requesting: 1. That all Prince Hall Grand Lodges be declared regular by the Conference of Grand Masters of North America. 2. The policy of Exclusive Territorial Jurisdiction be clearly defined so the Universal Masonry can prevail while keeping the Brotherhood of Man throughout the Fatherhood of God; a viable cause for Freemasonry as a whole. It has become generally accepted that Prince Hall Freemasonry is regular in form and practice. Prince Hall Grand Lodges derive their origin from African Grand Lodge Number 459, which received its charter from the Grand Lodge of England in 1784. There are approximately 40 member Grand Lodges in the Conference of Grand Masters of North America that have established a fraternal relationship with one or more Prince Hall Grand Lodges, Therefore, the question of regularity does not seem to be an issue any longer. The issue of exclusive territorial jurisdiction is one of the Standards for recognition that has been strictly observed by this Conference. It is held that only one legitimate Grand Lodge will be recognized in a particular state or country unless by mutual consent the two Grand Lodges agree to share the same jurisdiction. This is the mechanism by which the Grand Lodge can establish fraternal relationship with Prince Hall Grand Lodges. The terms of such an agreement are usually negotiated and ratified by the two Grand Lodges in question and no change in that process is recommended. We continue to be of the opinion that the establishment of fraternal relationships with Prince Hall Grand Lodges remains the prerogative of each individual Grand Lodge. Later in the report the Grand Master of New Mexico, M.-.W.-. Wayne Morrison, indulged the ears of the brothers in attendance. M.-.W.-. and R.-.W.'. Grand Masters, we have have not recognized Prince Hall Grand Lodges in this body, and almost 40 jurisdictions of this body do offer and recognize recognition, and whereas the have been asked for a chair in recognition, it is our duty to promote brotherly love, relief and truth. We should offer recognition to the Conference of Prince Hall Grand Masters and a seat in this Conference so that they could pursue their activities here, and I do so move. Motion seconded by Oregon. A vote was taken and it was approved to offer a seat in this Conference.

FOOTNOTE: Later that Tuesday afternoon following lunch, the Chairman of the Conference, M.-.W.-. Frederick L. Sorasabal, ruled that the motion concerning the Prince Hall Grand Lodge out of order and in violation of Rule No. 4 adopted our opening session, which states, "Any item which has not been previously scheduled in the agenda will be included if so desired by a majority vote of the Grand Masers or their respective representative present." The Motion violated that rule and if the subject matter is to come back it will have to go through the proper procedure under the business session of our Conference. ROMANIA: The Grand Lodge of Romania reported that the Grand Orient of France has invaded their jurisdiction and formed the Grand Orient of Romania, which is composed of six lodges previously formed by the Grand Lodge of France. These are not recognized Masonic Bodies. It should be noted that the Nationale Grand Lodge of Romania is the only independent sovereign Grand Lodge of Regular Freemasonry in Romania. They have some 5,500 members and work in strict observances of the ancient Landmarks and Old Charges of the Craft. In 170 active lodges. UKRAINE: The Grand Lodge of the Ukraine was consecrated on September 24, 2005 by the Grand Loge Nationale Francaise and the Grand Lodge of Austria. The first Lodge consecrated by the GLNF was named after the lodge of the same name created two centuries ago, and whose officers are working with the regalia worn by Simon Pethura, President of the Republic of Ukraine and Grand Master of Ukraine until 1922. It is the opinion that this Grand Lodge meets the standards for recognition. The following Grand Lodge Bodies are recommended to have fraternal recognition extended and to exchange fraternal representatives: Grand Lodge of Mauritius Grand Lodge of Croatia I now move the adoption and acceptance of this report as a whole. Fraternally, Robert L. Tomlinson, Jr., Chairman GRAND LODGE LIBRARY COMMITTEE - Report Not Available KANSAS MASONIC UNIVERSITY To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas: I bring fraternal greetings to the Masons of Kansas from your Kansas Masonic University. This year, the KMU has been quite active. Although we have not been enrolling a great number of new students, the students we have prove to be of the utmost quality. One of our students. Brother Kevin Glover, has completed all five courses this year while training for his mission in Iraq. Even after being relocated to Texas, he stayed on top of his Masonic studies. I have been revising and updating our current set of courses. I am proud to announce that as of the 2007 Annual Communication, all five courses will be revised and updated. These courses have not only been updated but also repackaged in a way that will prove to be more expedient when it comes to sending and grading courses. Further, I am working on essay based courses for each of the three Blue Lodge degrees. Thanks in large part to the Grand Lodge of California, F. & A.M., we have obtained a set of materials for each of these degrees. These courses are aimed at examining more closely Masonic symbolism and philosophy. I am excited to bring this kind of a study to the Craft. For the upcoming year we plan to continue our revision process and find ways to better serve our members. Thank you for your continued support. Fraternally Submitted, K. Tyler Curtis, KMU Chair

Robert (Bob) Riddle, Chair and Unity Lodge #273 NECROLOGY COMMITTEE It has long been said that Masonry teaches a man how to live and shows him how to die. These are the most important of lessons. It is also good that we know how to mourn. It is highly probable that each of us at this Annual Communication have had their lives touched by the grim hand of Death at least once since we last assembled. Whether it was a dear relative, a close friend or a Brother of the Mystic Tie that laid down the working tools of life, our lives are not the same without them. Our own Grand Lodge has lost many of our Brethren to the grim tyrant Death in the last year. But we are confident that they have passed into the Grand Lodge Above, where pain and sorrows cease and goodness reigns. We have heard that "Man that is born of woman is of few days, and full of trouble. He cometh forth as a flower, and is cut down; he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not." Yet the Mason is taught to look upon death from a more elevated point of view; to see in it the wise and necessary transition from the trials and imperfections of this world, to the perfect life for which our transient journey here has been the school and the preparation. Then, let us not only carry in our hearts fond memories of our departed Brethren, but also a desire to so live our lives so that when we have completed the designs set down on our trestle board and are stricken down by the ruthless setting maul of death, we too may hear the welcome words, "Well done, good and faithful servant. Enter thou into the joys of thy Lord." John E. Mowen, PGM, Chairman OPERATION "KAN" What came you here to do, each day we must make a decision, can we take a few moments to help someone or do we keep looking the other way. I'm glad that GRAND LODGE supports Operation "KAN" helping newly amputees to continue to enjoy life. Glenn L. Knapp, Chairman PATRIOTISM COMMITTEE To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF & AM of Kansas: In 2006 the committee took part in Masonic activities, with an audience of 74 Masons. We were proud to be invited to post the Colors at the opening ceremonies of the Grand Lodge Annual Communication on March 17. Our other activities included our "Building The Flag"
91

and "Folding The Flag" programs. We have also shown some video tapes and given some talks on patriotic themes which have been extremely well received. In addition to our Masonic activities, the committee presented similar programs for nonMasonic audiences, insuring that they were aware that we are Masons. They were viewed by an approximately 1.315 persons, consisting of school, church, fraternal, civic and youth groups. A highlight was when we were invited to participate in Junction City's Sundown Days activities. We are still gratified by the response we get from school and other youth 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 eariy history of our country and the origin of our flag. We urge each Lodge to establish a Patriotism Committee and an ongoing Patriotism program. The committee will assist in preparing such a program on request. Fraternally submitted, Donald S. Nisbett, Chairman

We conclude our report by 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. We must include them in our Masonic family as part of a unified family.

TRIALS AND PUNISHMENT COMMITTEE To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of A.F.&A.M. of Kansas. During the past year there were four cases referred to the committee on Trials and Punishment by the Grand Master as follows. The first case was from Thayer Lodge No. 149 charging a brother with raising marijuana and stating he had been sentenced to 24 months probation but did not submit any court records to back up these charges. After sending two letters to the lodge requesting this information and the Grand Secretary calling the lodge for this information and receiving no answer the case was dropped. The second case was from Masonic Home Lodge No. 450 charging a brother with selling child pornography over the Internet. The brother pleaded guilty in court and was sentenced to prison. This brother was expelled from Masonry. A third case was a brother from Haysville Lodge #112. He was charged with molesting a child under the age of 14. The brother pleaded guilty in court and was sentenced to prison. This brother was expelled from Masonry. In the fourth case the member belonged to Anthony Lodge and the charges were filed in Harper Lodge. He was charged with having relations with a brother Mason's wife. He asked for and received a demit from Anthony Lodge one day prior to the charges being filed in Harper Lodge and therefore escaped through a loophole in our law as you cannot charge a demitted Mason. This loophole will be closed with an amendment to our by-laws next year. The committee is pleased to be of service to our Grand Master and to our Grand Lodge and wished we had nothing to do for then Masonry would be working as it should. Don E. Robinett, PGM, Chairman Glenn E. Kohr, PGM

Grand Senior Warden, Sterling P. Hornbuckle, III then addressed the members on his proposal to adopt the CHIPS, child identification program. He explained the program, what it includes, the costs, and how it would be paid for. He stressed that no per-capita revenue would be spent on this program. All funding would come from voluntary donations. He moved that the Grand Lodge adopt the CHIP program. The motion carried. The final round of the Eureka Challenge was then played off. M.-.W.-. Past Grand Master Larry Mersberg, led the challenge between Topeka Lodge #17, St. Francis Lodge #404, Nickerson Lodge #43, Lawrence Lodge #6, and Delphian Lodge #44 out of 40 that took part. There were 21 districts that were represented, and 19 Lodges made it to the second round. Four Area District Deputy Grand Masters and Membership chairman and assistant Butch Buchenau helped with the judging. Each Brother that participates receives a Eureka Challenge pin. There will be 15 questions in the series test today, 15 minutes time, and the same rules that have applied all year long are used. St. Francis Lodge #404 won the State Championship.

Brother Grand Senior Deacon, L. Kent Needham was asked to escort Right Worshipful Brother Dale Cantrell west of the altar. M.-.W.-. Steve introduced Brother Dale and told of his many activities and accomplishments then presented him with, and placed around his neck, a medallion for being awarded, and very deserving of, the Gold Master Builder Award, the only one given this year.

"All Mighty God, Our Heavenly Father, we come today to remember and pay tribute to those that have gone before us, our Brothers and sisters and all those who have perished in the last year. Help us to remember them and to spend a few moments in their honor and in Your glory. We pray this Your Holy Name. Amen. We are going to begin by attempting to sing. Those of you who can sing, please sing louder than those of you who can't. Our first hymn is "God of our Fathers". The words are on the inside of your bulletin.

A reading by M.-.W.-. J. Steven Molstad from the Book of Deuteronomy: "Moses said to all Israel, this entire commandment that I command you today you must diligently observe so that you may live and increase and go in and occupy the land that the Lord promised on oath to your ancestors. Remember the long way that the Lord, your God, has led you these 40 years in the wilderness in order to humble you, testing you to know that what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep His commandments. He humbled you by letting you hunger, then by feeding you with manna which neither you nor your ancestors were acquainted, in order to make you understand that one does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord. Therefore, keep the commandments of the Lord your God by walking in His ways and by fearing Him. For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land, a land with flowing streams, with springs and underground waters welling up in the valleys and hills. A land of wheat and barley, of vines and fig trees and pomegranates. A land of olive trees and honey. A land where you may eat bread without scarcity, where you will lack nothing. A land whose stones are iron and from whose hills you may mine copper. You shall eat your fill and bless the Lord, your God for the good land He has given you. Do not say to yourself, my power and the might of my own hand have gotten me this wealth, but remember the Lord your God for it is He who gives you the power to get well so that He may confirm His covenant that He swore to your ancestors as He is doing today. If you do not forget the Lord your God and follow other Gods to serve and worship them I solemnly warn you today that you will surely perish, like the nations that the Lord is destroying before you so shall you perish because you would not obey the voice of the Lord your God." REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON NECROLOGY Grand Chaplain, Father Don Davidson, stated: the Grand IVIaster and I have a number of things in common of which he knows very little about. He should be thankful of that, probably, but one of the things is that we were both born into Masonic families. Now I think that is a really neat deal. I actually thought that for the longest time I would only know Masonic Temples and never really know any place else. I have been stuck in elevators, I have been forgotten in lobbies, there are a lot of stories about my presence from the age of zero up to my current age, in Masonic Temples. One of the memories that I have is standing in the kind of foyer of or Masonic Temple at home and looking at all of the pictures. One things Masonic Temples seem to have are pictures. Lots of them. Pictures of things that have happened years and years and years ago. My father used to stand and look up at those names on the walls and all those pictures and point out, "now that is a cousin, he is a great uncle, that is your great great grandfather and that is your grandfather" and on and on and on. The older I got the more that I looked at those pictures. I even found myself walking out here at the Scottish Rite classes of 1892, 1901 and looking at those men standing in those pictures and thinking to myself I wonder what they were thinking that day. What was it like? What was the degree work like? What was their understanding of what they were going through? Was it different than my own? I have a picture in our home of my Scottish Rite class. There were 600 in it. I know I am a blip in there somewhere. But with these pictures you can see into the eyes of these people and if you look closely you can actually start to feel their presence. Beckoning you, talking to you, speaking to you, right out of history. Saying to you, "don't forget me". "Don't forget me." Today is a different time I suppose and yet there is a lot of things we can hold true. One of them is to remember those who have gone before us. Not just in terms of "boy wasn't he a silly guy", or "he really liked chocolate pie", but remember something about them. Try to keep their memory alive so that we do not forget who they were and how they helped us in continuing the heritage of what Masonry is all about. It is after all a family And as we think about them, how do we keep their memory alive if we do not at least take time once in awhile to honor them. Along with that comes something that I think every Lodge should do and that is to honor those who have served our country. We seldom do it, but we need to. Especially with all of the young men and women who are now serving our country in harms way and they are going to be coming back and they are going to be looking for places to be. Associations to have. Fraternity. I hope we open our doors to them as well. So let me put my mouth in the same place as my words. Why don't you all, all of you in this room who have served at one time or another in one of our military forces, if you would please stand. All of you. Ladies and gentlemen, thank you. One more thing, when we see our veterans, when we see our men and women coming back, when we see them in our airports, on the streets or in the
Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
2006-2007
malls, it does not hurt to go up to them and say thank you. We will not forget what you have done. As most of you know I serve as the Command Chaplain for the Kansas National Guard. About 10,000 air and army soldiers who serve not only the state of Kansas and the governor of Kansas but are called, many many hundred of them, to serve in various places all over our country. And sadly not all of them come home. We simply have to stop in our every day world and take the time to say thank you. Like those pictures of Masons past, we must hear the words of our forbears, calling out to us, saying to us, don't forget me. Don't forget me. It is not that difficult a thing to do. It does not take a monumental amount of energy. In fact it can be done in the shortest of spaces and the quickest of times. If we don't do it, we do not take the time to remember those who have gone before we are missing a gigantic part of our heritage. The very foundation on which we walk. So I invite you, as we remember those who have gone before, as we mourn their passing, as we look in our Lodge rooms and see chairs no longer occupied, as we call the roll and no longer hear a voice, as we reach out and no longer feel that grasp of another man's hand. Let us not just simply walk away with our head bound shaking. Let us remember and put their thoughts and their thoughts and their inspiration, their dedication, their devotion, their hope into our actions. I conclude with a prayer that I think is quite fitting for today. It was actually written by a famous British explorer, which I believe was also a Master Mason, Sir Francis Drake. I'd like you all to stand for this prayer. Let us pray. Disturb us Lord, when we are too well pleased with ourselves, when our dreams have become true because we have dreamed too little, when we arrive safely because we have sailed too close to the shore. Disturb us Lord when with the abundance of things we posses we have lost our thirst for the waters of life, have fallen in love with life, we have ceased to dream of eternity. In our efforts to build a new earth we have allowed our vision of the new heaven to dim. Disturb us Lord to dare more boldly, to venture on wider seas where storms will show your mastery. Where losing sight of land we shall find the stars. We ask you to push back the horizon of our hopes and to push us into the future in strength, courage, hope and love. We ask this in the name of our Captain. Amen. Our closing hymn is one I think we all know - "America the Beautiful." May the Lord bless you and keep you, may the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you. May the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace this day and forever more. Amen. Thank you.

It is my honor to welcome you to the installation of the 2007 Grand Officers.

The First Lady of Masons, Janet Grassi, was thanked for her love and support over the years, without that understanding and assistance it would not have been possible to devote as much time to the Craft. She is truly a co-pilot. She was later presented with a necklace. Leadership and Service is the motto for this year. This includes leadership development in the Lodges, and service to the Brethren, to the widows and community. The future of the Craft will be determined by what begins today. A positive image must be projected to society to attract new members with the leadership qualities to move the Fratemity into new levels. M.-.W.-. Jimmie went on to explain his goals, programs and expectations for the coming year. The Grand Lodge Line officers then introduced the friends and family members they had in attendance. Presentations were given. The invitation to return to Salina in 2008 was issued and accepted. The closing prayer, given by the Grand Chaplain was given. The ceremony concluded.

In addition to this handbook, and at a small cost to the Brother, our Kansas Masonic University (KMU) courses have been updated, and the completion of these courses should be highly recommended to the brother. A ladies course is also part of the KMU courses.

FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT Most Worship Grand Master and Brother Masons: We wish to report that, during the calendar year 2007, total current assets increased $1,192,000, or over 22% to $6,557,000. Our total investments increased from $4,737,000 to $6,178,000 and our total investment income for the year was $1,125,000, for a return of over 23%. In comparing this performance to the three principle indexes, the Dow Industrials gained 6.4%, the S & P gained 3.5% and the NASDAQ gained 9.8%, with the average of the three being 6.57%. Again, we out-performed this year's equity market This year these amounts are based on unauditedfinancialstatements as it was impossible, due to the type of some of our investments, for our auditor to have his report completed by our Grand Lodge date. Again, I would like to emphasize that although we have a substantial amount of investments, we should not use these funds for current operating expenses.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
g g I % 'j
To the Council of Administration Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas:
s i
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position of Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas and Affiliates (the Grand Lodge) as of December 31, 2007, and the related consolidated statements of activities and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Grand Lodge's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. The prior year summarized comparative information has been derived from the Grand Lodge's 2006 financial statements and, in our report dated February 26,2007, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.
â&#x20AC;˘I g 5s S S a
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we 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. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Z 5 k g
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas and affiliates as of December 31, 2007, and the changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Ia ^ -^ ^ §
Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. The schedule of expenses on page 11 is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required pan of the basic consolidated financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Investments Investments are presented in the consolidated financial statements at fair market value based upon quoted market prices or at estimated fair value as reported by fimd managers. All investment income and changes in market value are reported on the statement of activities and classified as unrestricted unless restricted by the donor or applicable law. Investment income and gains restricted by donors are reported as increases in unrestricted net assets if the donor restrictions are met in the reporting period in which the income and gains are recognized. Inventory Inventories of Masonic merchandise are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost determined by the first-in, first-out method. Property and Equipment Purchased property and equipment with a useful life greater than one year are capitalized and carried at cost. Donated property and equipment are carried at the approximate fair value at the date of donation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the useful life of the asset, between 5 and 40 years. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed fi"om the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is included in income for the period. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred; significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. Contributions The Grand Lodge reports gifts of cash and other assets as restricted support if they are received with donor stipulations that limit the use of the donated assets. When a donor restriction expires, that is, when a stipulated time restriction ends or purpose restriction is accomplished, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and reported in the statement of activities as net assets releasedfix>mrestrictions. Contributions whose use is limited by donorimposed stipulations that neither expire by passage of time nor can be fulfilled or otherwise removed by actions of the Grand Lodge are recorded as permanently restricted net assets.

However, income from certain activities not directly related to the Organizations' tax-exempt purposes is subject to taxation as unrelated business income. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differfix)mthose estimates. Functional Expense Allocation The majority of expenses, including salaries, are specifically identified as member service or general and administrative. Other expenses have been allocated between member service and general and administrative based on either the percentage of member service salaries and general and administrative salaries to total salaries or allocated based upon the estimated percent of use by the respective expense category. Reclassifications Certain items from the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
2007-2008
GRAND MASTER'S ADDRESS Deputy Grand Master, Grand Lodge Officers, Past Grand Masters, visiting dignitaries, and brethren of the Grand Lodge of Kansas, I welcome you to the 152"^ Annual Communication of the M.-.W.-.Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas. Your attendance at this Grand Lodge Session is appreciated, and I thank you for your time and effort to attend this session and the activities we have planned for you. Your attendance and interest in our Grand Lodge is sincerely appreciated. To our visitors from other Grand Jurisdictions, we extend a hearty welcome and appreciate you taking time from your busy schedules to be with us and share your ideas and programs with the brethren of Kansas. We look forward to hearing from you during this session. We have been well received in your jurisdictions. We hope your stay with us is interesting, memorable and enjoyable. Following is an accounting of my term as Grand Master. COUNCIL OF ADMINISTRATION The Grand Lodge of Kansas is being managed by a dedicated, devoted and very capable Council of Administration. They have been my support and encouragement this year. I am confident that they will serve the Grand Lodge well for years to come. From time to time the Council met this year to discuss and decide the direction of your Grand Lodge. Our discussions were always open, and we always closed our meetings with peace and harmony prevailing. I wish to thank R.-.W.-. Sterling P. Hornbuckle, III; R.-.W.. Roy T. Sullivan, Jr.; R.-.W.-. L. Kent Needham; for their wise counsel in the decisions made this term. I would also thank R.-.W.-. Robert B. Pfuetze; M.-.W.-. Clifford D. Knauss; W.-. Tracy L. Bloom and W.-. Joesphe G. Stiles for their support and opinions in all decisions. All Council of Administration decisions were made with the Craft in mind. PAST GRAND MASTERS Three Past Grand Masters and one Past Grand Master's wife have passed this term leaving missing links in the fraternal chain that connects us together. These were M.-.W.-. William E. Bradford; M.-.W.-. Chester L. Gilbert; and M..W.-. Forrest D. Haggard and his wife Eleanor. They will all be sorely missed. Accepting the appointment as Grand Senior Deacon is a lifelong commitment for Kansas Masonry. The Grand Master, the Past Grand Masters and upcoming advancing line officers have accepted this commitment. Our Past Grand Masters have filled in for me on many occasions when my schedule did not permit me to be there in person for emblem presentations and dedications because of my schedule for other Grand Lodge events or Lodge presentations and my health issues. During my term, their counsel has been appreciated and their advice has always been timely and valuable. M..W.-. Robert L. Tomlinson, Jr. had the confidence to appoint me as Grand Senior Deacon. Being advanced further to the office of Grand Master was very meaningful because that advancement was by the Craft. I am proud to be in the Masonic family of Grand Masters that is led by M..W.. Thomas C. Raum, Jr. Time will tell how effective my leadership as Grand Master has been. GRAND LODGE OFFICERS Every Grand Master professes of having the best line of Officers. I am no different. This term has been a busy one, and I thank the Grand Lodge Officers and their Ladies for their dedication to Masonry, and for freely giving their time and resources to serve Masonry in Kansas. You have made me look good this year, and I am very proud of each one of you. You did everything I requested and more. I express my heartfelt thanks for your service and contribution to Masonry in 2007-2008.

ADGMS, DOGMS, GRAND LECTURERS, COMMITTEEMEN The eyes and ears of the Grand Master are our Area Deputy Grand Masters and District Deputy Grand Masters. They keep the fabric together for our Gentile Craft. Many problems are solved by these devoted brethren without input from the Grand Master They are a key to successful State wide operations, and are appreciated by the Grand Master and his Officers. The Grand Lodge Lecturers drive many miles to make our Schools of Instruction interesting and successful, and to keep our ritual up to date and consistent across the State. I apologize for any errors I have made in our special communications openings (which you have graciously overlooked) this year. This year we mourned the passing of Terry Carter, Chairman of the Ritualistic Committee and President of the Kansas Masonic Home Board. Terry was a great Mason and is sorely missed by our Fraternity.
GRAND LODGE OFFICE AND STAFF We have the best Grand Lodge office staff. Under the direction of our Grand Scoretary, R.-.W.. Robert B. Pfuetze, my word for them is awesome. Robert Pfuetze, Jan Nelson, Nancy Johnston, Assistant Grand Secretary Joey Stiles and Chuck Hoffmeister are engaged in our everyday activities at our Grand Lodge Office in Topeka. Answering your questions or filling your orders in the same day you ask for them is their goal. Accomplishing this goal daily has been the norm for them this term. With the Grand Master's extensive travels, his office is the State of Kansas. Every Grand Master counts on the Grand Lodge office to conduct the daily business of the Grand Lodge, handle daily correspondence, process orders to the constituent lodges and answer the daily questions. My hat is off to this devoted group.
CONCORDANT AND APPENDANT BODIES AND YOUTH GROUPS Again, Masonic unity has prevailed within the Jurisdiction. A special thanks to the Scottish Rite and Illustrious Hugh Gill, Sovereign Grand Inspector General in Kansas, to the York Rite and Right Eminent Grand Commander of Knights Templar T. Michael Regan, Most Excellent Grand High Priest of Royal Arch Masons C. David Williams, Most Illustrious Grand Master of Cryptic Masons Carral N. Roberts for the hospitality extended to me during my attendance at their meetings. I am a member of both of these organizations and this membership has always been a source of pride when I attend and participate in these organizations. To the five Potentates of the Shrines in Kansas, it has been a great experience working with each of you, and to be in your company during our Grand Lodge Opening held in Ft. Hays to honor you and your divans and the representative for the Imperial Potentate, Jerry G. Gantt, Imperial Marshal. I have worn my Grand Master's fez with pride and thank Abdallah Shrine for providing it for me. I have attended meetings of the Eastern Star, Daughters of the Nile, Social Order of the Beauceant and the Amaranth this term. I appreciate the hospitality and courtesies extended to me and the First Lady at these meetings. Their hard work in their philanthropies of Kansas is well known. I also attended state wide meetings of the Job's Daughters and Rainbow for Girls. My health issues did not allow me to attend the Demolay Conclave in Coffeyville, but I sent a substitute. I was impressed by the performance of all the youth groups this term. These youth groups of Kansas are our future.

RULINGS AND SPECIAL DISPENSATIONS We have processed many more special dispensations than we should. It seems that we need to do things differently for the convenience of Masonry in Kansas. I believe that we need to act according to the by-laws, but I granted all reasonable dispensations. The special dispensation folder is the thickest folder in my briefcase. We all need to work at Freemasonry according to the original design. PERPETUAL LIFE MEMBERSHIP We have set records in the last months with the sales of perpetual life memberships as more and more lodges recognize that the investment returns from these memberships will one day pay their per capita tax and provide the funds to perpetuate their lodges. Perpetual memorials are also being used to provide financial security to the lodges. STRATEGIC PLANNING As I look to the destiny of Masonry in Kansas, I realize that our future is in our hands. If we do not plan now, we will continue on without definite goals to direct Masonry in Kansas. I appointed a Strategic Planning committee this year to determine our future direction in Kansas Masonry. I have asked every Kansas Mason to participate in this effort by completing an initial questionnaire to determine the areas where work is needed. Once we determine these key areas, additional questionnaires may be issued to further refine the results, and determine where the process can best benefit our current operations. Each future Grand Master plans to address these areas where improvements are needed. STATE OF KANSAS MASONRY We are all aware that our membership is declining. As I traveled throughout the State, I have observed that some lodges are thriving, while others are not. The lodges that are excelling are those with strong leadership. Unfortunately, we find lodges that are not providing programs that enable new members to seek further light. Masonic education must be what we are about. We must understand our past to understand our needs. I started a mentoring program this year to assign a mentor to each new candidate when his petition is approved. This mentor will work with the new Masons for a period of one year or more. Mentoring is about a transfer of knowledge from our experienced Masons to our new Brothers. Far too often our Brothers pass on and take their Masonic knowledge with them. The handbook issued to each lodge with this program contains a lighthouse of knowledge and can be used with the books included in my book program and the Kansas Masonic University Courses to mentor our new members and set up a network of brethren that the new Brother can go to with questions in his search for light. Most of us have had a mentor that has been our guiding light throughout our Masonic journey. Now we need to train our new members to accept leadership in the lodge through mentoring. The mentoring material can also be used to provide Masonic education topics that can be presented in your lodge to bring life and attendance to your meetings. I appointed a Library Committee under the direction of M.-.W.-. Robert L. Tomlinson, Jr. to begin cataloging our library books with the goal that we will be able to check out books to those brethren who are searching for more light or doing research. We should consider walling off the library area soon with suitable climate control to protect our books from deterioration and dust. Routinely, we are loosing 1,000 members a year to suspensions for non-payment of dues. These are members who believe that Masonry no longer has a value to them. Many lodges do not have programs of interest for these members, and they are wondering why they should continue to pay dues loan organization that is giving them limited benefits. Masons are inactive because we are not meeting their expectations. We must plan better meetings with educational programs to increase our knowledge, our attendance, and maintain our membership. The Grand Lodge can help, act now.
2007-2008
Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
We at Grand Lodge travel and attend conferences in order to be up to date on programs that are working in other jurisdictions, and that are designed to promote Masonry in the lodge and the community. We do not propose programs in Kansas that have failed in other jurisdictions. However, the Grand Lodge cannot build your lodge for you. There are things that we can do to help, but the first spark to build a lodge must come from within the lodge. The programs proposed by Grand Lodge have little value if the local lodges do not adopt them. The Grand Lodge and the constituent lodges must work together to improve Masonry in Kansas. We must seek those potential members who are leaders in the community, and encourage them to join and work to help build our lodges. For lodges in weak communities, the lodge can become a focal point of that community, and both the lodge and community can excel. I asked all lodges to do a 5-year capital improvements program to proactively determine what improvements and maintenance is required for their facilities and when, and determine how to finance these projects in advance. Once the lodge has a 5-year plan, they must appoint trustees to monitor the plan and make sure that it is carried out. I am happy to report that many lodges now have adopted a plan. It is not good business for us to wait until our structures are in such bad shape that we cannot raise the money to do major improvements. We must have well maintained facilities if we hope to obtain quality members. HIGHLIGHTS Many items come to mind when I recall the highlights of the year. 1. The many mementos that I received and treasure. 2. The lamb skin and gavel I received at the District #29 Oak Tree will bring back memories of that evening for years to come. 3. The Grand Master's cane I received at Derby is a work of art. 4. The kaleidoscope and wall hanging I received at the Johnson Lodge #441 dedication. 5. The Grand Master's gavel made by Brother Harrison H. McCallop, and presented to me by M.-.W.-. Clarence Robinson at the Prince Hall Grand Lodge session. I have used this gavel at all my Grand Lodge openings this year. 6. The Grand Lodge opening at the Shrine Bowl at Ft. Hays, where we received the five Kansas Potentates and their Divans and Jerry G. Gantt, Imperial Grand Marshall, attending for the Imperial Potentate Bernard J. Lemieux, and my introduction at halftime at the East West Shrine Bowl Game. I also received a football autographed by all the members of the All-Masonic Band players. 7. The Introduction of the Grand Masters of North America at Scottish Rite Joint Session in Washington, D.C. 8. The York Rite monument inspection at Pike's Peak on Labor Day. 9. KU Mason's Day at Kansas University Masonic Cancer Research Institute. 10. The presentation of my Grand Master's Fez by Abdallah Shrine, and the Grand Master's Grotto Fez when I was made a prophet at sight of the Ankara Grotto. 11. The room that was provided for me by the Kansas Masonic Home in Wichita for my travels to that area. 12. My membership on the Board of Directors of the Kansas Masonic Foundation. 13. The attendance at other Grand Lodges in Oklahoma and Nebraska, the attendance at the Midwest Conference of Grand Lodges in Manitoba and the Midwest Conference on Masonic Education in Indiana. 14. My Grand Master's reception at Abdallah Shrine in Overland Park, Kansas. 15. My Grand Master's Breakfast at the Northeast Valley of the Scottish Rite in Overland Park, Kansas. 16. The metal square and compasses ceiling tile presented to me at Harper. 17. Eight Cornerstone or Plaque Dedications and a Ground Breaking for the new Wyandotte #3 Lodge construction site. 18. The Masonic wall clock that I received from King Solomon Lodge in Leavenworth.

FAMILY It is fitting for me to express a debt of gratitude to my family for the many occasions we missed during the five years we have devoted to the Grand Lodge. My wife, Jan, has been my constant companion to all the events we attended and has helped guide me on many occasions when I needed advice. I thank her for her involvement and support through the schedules and activities of the last five years. CLOSING Another milestone is completed in our Kansas Masonry. It has been a memorable and humbling experience to serve as your Grand Master and I thank the Masons of Kansas for the opportunity to serve them. Jimmie L. Grassi, Sr. Grand Master of Masons in Kansas 2007-08 GRAND TREASURER'S REPORT The Grand Treasurer's report was given by Robert L. Tomlinson, Jr., PGM. He called everyone's attention to the proposed budget. The report was accepted and approved. GRAND TREASURER'S REPORT (from the Advanced Report) To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: We as Masons are constantly reminded that change is inevitable and certain whether we like it or not. In early November, 2007, M.-.W.-. Clifford D. Knauss, Grand Treasurer and PGM, informed our Grand Master that it was necessary (for family obligations) that he resign his position as Grand Treasurer effective December 1, 2007. Our Grand Master accepted his resignation and I later received a call from our Grand Master asking me to fill the unexpired term as Grand Treasurer. I did accept his request to be of service to our Grand Lodge. First, I would compliment and express our sincere appreciation to M.-.W.-. Knauss for his dedication to the office of Grand Treasurer and to the Grand Lodge of Kansas these past 17 plus years. He has rightly earned the admiration and respect of all Masons in Kansas, having proved his devotion to service. Having had the opportunity to be witness to the dedication to service above and beyond the call of duty, I take this opportunity to call your attention to the many day to day duties our Grand Secretary, R.-.W.-. Robert B. Pfuetze, oversees that enables our Grand Lodge to function in a most efficient manner. I do express my sincere appreciation for his service rendered and defininitely recommend to you to express your appreciation also. The Council of Administration has, once again, endeavored to do everything possible to remain within the budget set one year ago and has been quite successful in their efforts. To maintain and protect the financial well being of our Grand Lodge of Kansas is their constant desire. The advance report you have received contains the Audited Report of our finances for the year just ended. We know that you have had only a short time to review it, but should you have any questions or suggestions, please make them known. We do make every effort to keep the brethren informed. I would draw the attention of all Lodges in the Grand Jurisdiction of Kansas to be vigilant in all your financial responsibilities having your eye on the future. "Vour fiscal responsibility depends on what you do today to ensure that your Lodge has a tomorrow. Respectfully submitted, Robert L. Tomlinson, Jr., PGM, Grand Treasurer

2007 Report of the Kansas Masonic Foundation, Inc. To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of AF&AM of Kansas: Your Kansas Masonic Foundation was established in 1966 as a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization for the purpose of expanding Masonic Philanthropy in the fields of charitable, educational and scientific programs.

The gift w\\\ help the institute in its effort to achieve designation as a National Cancer Institute (NCI) Comprehensive Cancer Center - a designation that will not only benefit Kansas residents but everyone in the region. NCI designation will bring new research, new resources for detennining and providing more effective treatments, and greater opportunities for Institute staff to collaborate with the finest researchers across the state and the world.

The Partnership for Life Campaign: In November of 2003, the Foundation pledged to increase their fundraising four-fold by pledging $15 million in support of the KU Cancer Center as it seeks to attain National Cancer Institute (NCI) Designation as a Comprehensive Cancer Center. The NCI designation virill ensure its status as one of the leading cancer research and treatment centers In the country, alongside of other institutions such as the Mayo Clinic and M.D. Anderson. This resulted in the re-naming of the research center as the Kansas Masonic Cancer Research Institute, bringing outward and highly visible recognition of the long-time support that Kansas Masons have made to the fight against cancer. As of December 31, 2007, Masons and friends had raised $13,232,097.29 towands the Campaign total. Since 1974, the gifting total is more than the $18 million mark. When the Partnership for Life Campaign is completed, total giving will surpass more than $20 million through the Kansas Masonic Foundation. As part of the Partnersfiip for Life Campaign this year and through the gifts of the Kansas Masonic Foundation and our friends, we have completed the funding for the John P. Wolf 33-degree Masonic Professorship in Urology, The Capitol Federal Masonic Distinguished Professorship in Cancer, The Franklin D. and Beveriy J. Gaines Professorship, and The Bob Dole Prostate Cancer Research Fund. The Foundation continues to wori< with Community Action Teams across the state to take the message of the campaign, and to assist in fund raising, into various Kansas communities. A lodge challenge was issued by KMF President Jeff Sowder, PGM, at the Grand Session on March 16, 2007. The challenge was for every Mason and every Lodge to make a gift or pledge to the Partnersfiip for Ufe Campaign this year. Recognitions for this "Capstone Phase" of the Campaign will be given at the 2008 Grand Session. C-Club: This recognition group of Masonic philanthropists began in 1981. Donors who have made cumulative gifts of $25 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 plus); Ruby ($500-plus); Diamond ($1,000-plus); Platinum ($5,000-plus); and Philanthropist ($10,000-plus). An updated "C-Club" plaque listing through December 31, 2007, was sent to the Lodges in February, 2008. There is also a Ladies "C-Club." Heritage Club: The Heritage Club recognizes the special group of Masons who have chosen to include the Kansas Masonic Foundation in their estate plans. Planned gifts include will bequests, charitable remainder trusts, gift annuities, insurance gifts and other gift vehicles, many of w/hich can have favorable tax implications to the donor. As planned gifts have counting value to the Partnership for Life Campaign, efforts are under way to promote sound estate planning to Kansas Masons and encourage planned gifts to the Foundation. Kansas Masonic All-State iVIarching Band: Fort Hays State University was host to 209 of Kansas' finest musicians for the 24"" Annual Kansas Masonic All-State High School Marching Band Camp held July 24-28, 2007.

Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
2007-2008
M.-.W.. David Brown, Grand Master of Prince Hall F&AM of Kansas, came forward and brought greetings from the Prince Hall. He presented M.-,W.-. Jimmie with an engraved ink pen, so that he may write his memoirs of this year, and said the Prince Hall Masons would be glad to help him in any way they could. He invited all the Brothers to their session in May. MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE REPORT R.-.W.-. Butch Buchenau gave the Membership Committee report. He thanked everyone on the Membership Committee for their efforts. The report was voted on and accepted as submitted. To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Mason of Kansas: 2007 has been a productive year for the Membership Committee. The Friends of Masons presentations continue to be a successful means of explaining our Fraternity to the uninitiated. We urge each of you to study the Annual Report Summary by Lodge at the back of the Advance Report and then in the Annual Proceedings when they are published. The numbers for each Lodge and for our Grand Lodge are self-explanatory. We have no control over the number of our Brothers who are called to that Grand Lodge Above, but we can work to reduce the number of suspensions for non-payment of dues, and we can increase the number of men that we Initiate into our Lodge. Membership can be broken down into 3 main areas, RECRUITMENT, RETENTION AND RESTORATION. RETENTION: We have brought in new good members. We need to keep them interested in the Fraternity. Make them feel a part of our Lodge; be on committees, start learning the ritual, be a part of the Masonic family The MENTORING program instituted by our Grand Master this year is a great start in retention. Also, how many Entered Apprentices and Fellow Crafts do we have who have not finished their Degrees? Visit with these Brothers and see what needs to be done to encourage them to finish their degrees. Have Programs for the entire Family. Retention is a means of maintaining the current membership. RESTORATION: We lose a large number of our Brothers each year because of Suspension for Non-Payment of dues. Are we doing all we can to reduce this number? The Master and Secretary need to work with their Lodge Membership Committee and determine who has not paid their dues and why. There are many reasons and many of these can be resolved by visiting with these Brothers. Restoration is a way to increase Membership by bringing Brothers back into the Fraternity. RECRUITMENT: It starts at the individual level. You don't join big. Recruitment cannot come from Topeka, Salina, Abilene or any other location in our Grand Jurisdiction. It has to start with you, the individual Mason. New Brothers are vital to the future of Freemasonry. There are many tools available to increase membership. It is a proven fact that the Friends of Masons Night is one of the best tools that we have. This program can only work with a strong dedication from each Lodge to successfully plan a Friends of Masons Night. Thirtyfive Kansas Lodges requested a Friends of Mason presentations with twenty-eight Lodges returning a report. We would like to remind the Lodges that it is the responsibility of the Lodge to submit a written application to the Membership Committee and then complete the Friends of Masons Night report. The Membership Committee is composed of dedicated Brothers who continue to offer their services without compensation for time or mileage. We continue to encourage all Lodges and other Masonic groups to call upon us to assist in presenting positive programs about the benefits of becoming a member of the Greatest Fraternity in the Worid.

STRATEGIC PLANNING COMMITTEE REPORT R.-.W.-. L. Kent Needham, Grand Junior Warden, came forward and gave a report and some highlights on Strategic Planning. He started by thanking Grand Master Jimmie for his vision and wisdom in establishing this committee. The report was accepted as submitted. STRATEGIC PLANNING COMMITTEE REPORT ffrom Advanced Reoortl In March 2007, M.-. W.-. Jimmie L. Grassi, Sr, appointed a strategic planning committee with the expressed purpose of developing a process to assist the Grand Lodge in establishing a long range plan that will meet the needs of ancient craft Masonry in Kansas for the next several years. R.-.W.-. Kent Needham was chosen to chair the committee with the following brothers agreeing to serve on the committee: M.-.W.. Allan L. Hurlburt, Bro. C. Mark Monnier, W.-. R. Scott Kailer, and W.-. Steven E. Crane. Formal meetings of the committee were held via phone conference on June 6, 2007 and November 14, 2007. In addition, many emails and phone conversations have taken place to move the committee process forward. The following represents the decisions made bv the committee: 1) Process - Questions would be developed and made available to the craft encouraging responses that would be assembled, organized and reviewed during a strategic planning session that included this committee and the Council of Administration. With the assistance of a facilitator, this group would condense the responses down to issues that need to be addressed and set goals. It would be up to future Grand Masters to select a goal or goals, assign a committee to develop and carry out a strategy to achieve said goal or goals or otherwise address the goals in a manner they deem appropriate. 2) Facilitator - Don Blake, a brother Mason, working at Spirit in Wichita, would act as a facilitator for this strategic planning process. He was the facilitator of the Scottish Rite strategic plan and has good knowledge in this area. 3) Questions - The process to develop the questions changed several times. It was finally determined that our facilitator, Don Blake, would assist in developing the questions with the committee reviewing them. In addition, it was suggested that a pre-questionnaire be sent to a select group of masons to assist in the formulation of the final questions. Once the final questions have been determined, they would be available on a web site for all Kansas Masons to access. It was determined that we would put an article in the Kansas Mason explaining the process and offering a web site for Kansas Masons to respond to the questions. In addition, they would be sent to the secretaries of each lodge with instructions encouraging individual responses from members of their lodge and suggest ways to get individual lodge members to respond to the survey rather than the secretary responding for the lodge as a whole. There will be a couple of questions regarding the demographics of the respondent in an effort to make sure we have a good representation from each generation within the craft. While it is our hope that the responses by the membership to this initial survey will provide clear direction, it is likely that a second set of questions will be necessary to help the committee drill down to more thoroughly understand issues important to the Craft.
4) Time Frame - Initially, the committee expected to have the process completed by early 2008 but as the committee researched other jurisdictions in an effort to avoid "reinventing the wheel", one common thread is that the process has taken two to three years to complete. It is the hope of the committee that we can shorten that time frame.

The committee will continue to move the process forward according to the will and pleasure of the Grand Master. All communications have been cordial, and harmony prevailed at all times as the members of the committee labored together in unity for the betterment of Freemasonry in Kansas.

The Benediction before lunch was given by the Grand Chaplain, W.. Donald Davidson. Mark A. Tabbert, Director of Collections at the George Washington National Memorial, where $.50 of each Brothers Per Capita is donated for support, was introduced by M.-. W.-. Jimmie. He showed a power point program that is available to the lodges explaining the Memorial and George Washington. After the power point presentation M..W.. Jimmie gave him a check from the Masons of Kansas in support of the Memorial. Mark further explained what is being done with the money provided by the Grand Lodge. M.-.W.. Bruce Austin, Grand Master of Missouri, was called for comments. He thanked everyone for the warm welcome he received and invited everyone to Missouri to visit the new Grand Lodge complex in Columbia, Missouri. He announced their Grand Lodge session will be September 22nd, 23"" in Columbia. M.-. W.. Bill Patterson, Past Grand Master and cun-ent representative to Japan, was brought forward for comments. R.. W.. Lloyd Davis, Deputy Grand Master, Utah, was called for comments. He addressed the Grand Lodge saying next year Utah will celebrate the 150"" anniversary of the dispensation of the Grand Lodge of Missouri for the first Lodge in the territory of Utah, in 1859, the Charter was in 1860. They will celebrate the heritages of the Grand Lodges from which the Grand Lodge of Utah was founded. The Grand Lodge of Kansas chartered their Mt. Moriah Lodge #2, October 21, 1868. He thanked M.-.W.. Jimmie for the reception he has received in Kansas and said he will be back. KANSAS MASONIC HOME REPORT M..W.-. T. Michael Fegan, Past Grand Master, gave the report on behalf of the Board and staff of the Home. M..W.. Thomas Raum, Past Grand Master, Secretary/Treasurer, gave the financial report of the Kansas Masonic Home. Both reports were accepted as submitted.

Air Capital Choir weekly practice and annual performance, Kansas Adult Care Executive meetings, K-State Peak Symposium, and a Veterans Day Celebration was held honoring residents. KMH hosted a Volunteer Appreciation Dinner for our volunteers in May, 2007. KMH Volunteers were recognized for their many hours of service with a certificate, a pin with the number of hours volunteered, a plaque and a dinner. The guest speaker for the Appreciation Dinner was M..W.'. Jeffrey Sowder. For the year of 2007 there were 4,406 volunteer hours recorded at the Kansas Masonic Home with the majority of hours volunteered in the KMH Beauty Shop every Tuesday doing the hair of residents from our Medical Pavilion who could not afford having their hair done otherwise. Also, KMH held their first annual Guns, Diamonds & Cash giveaway and made a net profit of roughly $12,000. We sold 590 out of 1000 tickets and gave away nine guns, two % carat diamonds and four $300 cash prizes. A Pancake & Sausage Day was held in April, 2007. We sold 247 tickets for this event and made $1,147.41. Fourteen volunteers worked this event We also had our 2"" annual Charity Golf Tournament in August, 2007. The tournament was successful in raising net proceeds of $16,640. We had 86 golfers play in the tournament, 137 sponsorships and 34 volunteers for the day. The 3'" annual Charity Golf Tournament will be held in August, 2008. Respectfully submitted, M.-.W.-. T Michael Fegan Vice President Kansas Masonic Home GRAND SECRETARY'S REPORT R.-.W.-.Pfuetze said his report is printed in the advanced proceedings and moved the adoption of the report as printed. It was accepted as submitted. GRAND SECRETARY'S REPORT (from the Advanced Report) I regret to begin this report on a negative note, but with about 90% of the annual reports turned in, we have almost equal numbers of deaths and suspensions for non-payment of dues. Both are very near the 900 level, and the suspensions are lagging slightly behind the deaths. If my memory serves me correctly, last year was the first year since I became Grand Secretary, that the deaths exceeded the suspensions. It is very disheartening to me to think that 900 of our members do not believe our fraternity is worth the cost of dues. I am convinced it is not the price of the dues, since most Lodges charge less than the price of a month's cable television for a year's worth of membership. It is my opinion that these members are leaving the fraternity because it has failed to give the members what they expected to receive when they joined. This year our Grand Master, through his Strategic Planning Committee, has attempted to find out exactly what our members want from the fraternity. Unfortunately, the number of members returning their survey has been disappointing, so at this time we still do not have a clear idea of the members' opinions. Over the years, a huge emphasis has been placed on recruitment of new members, which may be part of the problem. We believe a man must first be a Mason in his heart, but if

someone gives a "sales pitch" to a man whom otherwise has expressed no interest, or very limited interest, is this a man we really want? We need to realize that retention is always easier than recruitment, and we should concentrate our efforts more on keeping the members we already have, than we do on getting new ones. Secretary's Seminars Because of unavoidable conflicts in my schedule this year, we held only one Secretary's Seminar. It was held the Saturday after Thanksgiving, and I was very concerned that our attendance on a "holiday weekend" would be low. To my surprise, we had the largest number attending that I have ever had at one of these seminars. We used every available table w e have in the Grand Lodge building, and could just seat all of the attendees so that each had a place to take notes. We were fortunate this year to have a number of new incoming Secretaries attend. Shortly after the Annual Communication, I will announce the schedule of Secretary's Seminars for the coming year, and if my schedule permits, I want to have a least four of them again this year. I hope those Secretaries who have never attended one of my seminars will make an honest effort to attend one this year. Almost everyone who attends tells me it was well worth his time. Grand Lodge and Local Lodae Database Our database information continues to improve in accuracy. This is with the help of the Lodge Secretaries who continue to send updated information through our database exchange system. This has made reporting easier and more accurate for those who use the Local Lodge database provided by the Grand Lodge. Every Secretary who uses our database will tell you that reporting is much easier than it used to be, and the records are also more accurate. I am always trying to devise ways to make the Lodge Secretary's job easier, and so I add periodic changes to the database and the reports available through it. This year about 8 more Lodges were added to the list of those using the database. I am pleased to report that I have been doing most of the programming changes in both the Grand Lodge and Local Lodge databases myself, and as a result. Grand Lodge has saved about $5,000 per year in database maintenance contract fees. An Invitation To Our IVIembers Many people have told me that The Grand Lodge building in Topeka is the most beautiful building on capital square, except the Statehouse itself. You could not have a better location for the State headquarters of any organization than to be across the street from the Statehouse. I am always disappointed by the number of our members who have never seen our facility. If you are ever in Topeka, do not hesitate to stop and visit. We are always glad to see visiting Brothers, and if I am in the office, I am always willing to stop what I am doing and give "guided tours" of the facility. If you know in advance that you will be visiting, call and I will be sure to be available. Timelv Reportino The failure of many Secretaries to make timely reports adds an extra burden to the office staff. We cannot provide current information in our reports if the Lodges do not report to us. Reporting remains one of our biggest problems. We actually receive the required monthly activity reports from less than half of the Lodges in Kansas. I have never believed.you should have to send a report saying "no activity", but when there has been activity, then you should send a report. I received one annual report this year which listed two men who had been raised a year ago. Obviously, these men have never been on the Grand Lodge mailing list, and did not receive printed dues cards. There is absolutely no excuse for reporting membership changes a year late. As I write this report, there are still a number Lodges who have not returned their Annual Reports, paid their per capita tax, or both. These reports were due on January 10th, and it makes my job of compiling statistics for the advance report extremely difficult. I find it hard to understand why most of the Lodges who are the slowest to report are those with small memberships or few changes, but they just can't seem to get them done on time. Virtually any Lodge's annual report (unless yours is one of the four largest Lodges) will take less than an hour to complete.
2007-2008
Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
Somethino New Our Grand Master has started a new "Inlander Program", or mentoring program, for his year. It is my understanding that this program will continue for many years. If used properly, it will make a new member feel more comfortable in Lodge, as well as teach him many things about Masonry. According to the Grand Master's Edict, every new Mason must have a person assigned to him, who will mentor him for a year after he joins. This could well be one solution to our membership losses which occur because a man doesn't understand what he has joined, and doesn't feel a part of it. Appreciation I would like to thank my Grand Lodge office personnel for their excellent work and cooperation again this year. Jan, Nancy, and Chuck, you are all more appreciated than you know. It is truly wonderful to have a cooperative and hard-working staff, and they just seem to get better each year! I would be remiss if I didn't thank my Assistant Grand Secretary, Joey Stiles, for his work in the office too. He has been most helpful, and is always willing to take on almost any task I assign to him. Having a "working" Assistant Grand Secretary, rather than only a "ceremonial" one, is a real benefit to me, and to the office staff. I again have had the pleasure of working with a fine group of men in our Council of Administration. They have had the best interest of our fraternity in their hearts and minds at all times. No matter whether or not you agree with all of their decisions, I can assure you those decisions were always made with the Craft in mind. Finances Through our Grand Master's appeal, we have been able to increase our Endowment Fund again this year. It is still too small to be really effective in adding revenue to our budget, however. Only when our Grand Lodge Endowment Fund reaches about $10 million will we be able to receive enough investment income from that fund to be able to pay the bills, even without per-capita tax. Our decline in membership is currently at a rate of about 5% per year, and the average age of our members would indicate that this rate of decline will escalate sharply over the next ten years. Losses that great will make a huge difference in the income for both the local Lodge and the Grand Lodge, and like it or not, will require increases in dues at the local level and per-capita for Grand Lodge. No one likes to have higher dues, but your Masonic Lodge dues, compared to practically anything else you pay for, make them the greatest bargain in our lives. What else can you have that is of any value for less than a seventy cents a day? That is the amount of dues in our most expensive Lodge in the state. Most of our Lodges charge less than twenty-five cents a day, because that would be $91.25 a year. Until we get dues up to a level where we can afford to make our facilities attractive, and give true Masonic charity to our Brothers and those in need in our communities, we will never be the preeminent institution we once were. We all need to take a realistic look at what our membership in this Fraternity is worth. Many of our forefathers paid more than a day's wages to belong to a Lodge. Are we not as proud of our Fraternity as they were? If we do not increase our per-capita tax and our dues, we will have nothing to leave to our own children and grandchildren. The time has come to invest in our future so that we may make and keep our Fraternity the greatest in the world. Elsewhere in this book are the financial reports of the Grand Lodge, including a report of income and expenses compared to our Grand Master's budget (to date), and a projected budget for our Deputy Grand Master's year. I welcome any questions you may have, and will be happy to attempt to explain any item to your satisfaction. Fraternally submitted, Robert B. Pfuetze, Grand Secretary

MASONIC SERVICE ASSOCATION M..W.. Lanny Sanders, Past Grand Master of OI<lahoma, was brought forward to report on the Masonic Service Association. The Masonic Service Association works with the Veterans Administration to visit and take care of veterans in hospitals and homes. Our veterans are receiving the best care that the United States can give. No one does it better. It is because of the support to the MSA that we are able to do this. Here in Kansas the coordinator, Past Grand Master Stanley D. Browning, works with the MSA and Hospitals. $240,000 was donated to the Phone Home Program for service men and women. The MSA is also a clearinghouse for natural disasters. He thanked everyone for the opportunity to be part of this program. He made a presentation of a certificate from the MSA to M.-.W.-. Jimmie L. Grassi, Sr., in appreciation of his support. M..W.. Reggie Kuhn, Grand Master, Nebraska, came forward to bring greetings. He thanked everyone in Kansas for the opportunity to share in this Grand Lodge Annual Communication. He told of a documentary being done by a student at the University of Nebraska that shows the interest that generation has in the Masonic Fraternity. Masons must do what they can to support and develop that interest. He thanked M.-. W.-. Jimmie for the courtesy and opportunity to share fraternal brotherhood with the Masons of Kansas.
ELECTION OF OFFICERS M.-.W.-. Jimmie appointed Tellers and asked the Grand Secretary for instructions on balloting. After receiving instructions, balloting was held with the results being reported from the tellers as: Grand Master- Roy T. Sullivan, 301 votes, 6 scattered Grand Senior Warden - L. Kent Needham, 305 votes, 2 scattered Grand Junior Warden - Tracy Bloom, 307 votes Grand Treasurer - Robert L. Tomlinson, Jr., PGM, 304 votes, 3 scattered Grand Secretary - Robert B. Pfuetze, 277 votes, Larry Mersberg, PGM, 24 votes, 2 scattered Deputy Grand Master, R-W.-. Roy Sullivan accepted the appointment Grand Senior Warden, R..W.-. Kent Needham accepted the appointment Grand Junior Warden, R.-.W.-. Tracy Bloom accepted the appointment Grand Treasurer, M..W-. Robert L. Tomlinson, Jr., PGM, accepted the appointment Grand Secretary, R.-.W.-. Robert 8. Pfuetze accepted the appointment The Grand Lodge session was brought from labor to refreshment to close for the day. Past Grand Master Larry Mersberg was called forward as Chairman for the Eureka Challenge. He explained how the challenge worked. This year the topic was ritual and general Masonic knowledge. He announced that for 2008/2009 the topic will be drawn from the Masonic University courses. This year 48 lodges participated, of which the final four lodges are: Lafayette Lodge #16, Euclid Lodge #101, Nickerson Lodge #43, and St Francis Lodge #404, returning champions. For the final round there are 15 questions and 15 minutes to finish. These questions come from the most missed questions of the 100 sent out this year. The Championship trophy will be presented at the banquet. M..W.. Kent Callahan, PGM, Oklahoma was called for comments. He brought greetings from M..W.. Johnny Onkst, Grand Master, Oklahoma and the 28,000 members of Oklahoma. He encouraged everyone to be proud of their membership and talk about Masonry to friends and neighbors. He said they always receive the best hospitality and best fun coming to Kansas.

Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
LIBRARY COMMITTEE REPORT Past Grand Master Robert L. Tomlinson gave the report. He started by asking for a show of hands from people who have visited the Library in the Grand Lodge building. The Library is being cataloged, and recorded into the computer so that it will be easier to use, as well as the location of the books. There are roughly 6,000 volumes in the library. There will be an addendum to the report in the advanced proceedings, which he read. In part it talks about the plans for preserving the items in the collection. There are several By-Laws that support the preservation of the items in the Library. The report and addendum were received and approved as submitted. LIBRARY COMMITTEE REPORT (from the Advanced Report) To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: The opportunity to serve on this committee for the Grand Lodge and to work with the Staff of the Grand Lodge, who assisted in many ways throughout the year, has been a rewarding experience. Also, we have been assisted by Mrs. Robert H. Arnold, (Lou) this year and we are truly indebted to her for her dedication. The following report is submitted for your consideration: Our Grand Master has given us instructions to catalog and remove as many duplications of books, relegated to archives in the basement. It is not an easy task but is one accepted by your committee with great expectations. Once cataloged it is expected that locating books will be expeditious by virtue of each book being recorded in a computer library database by title, and specific location in our library. This process is most time consuming but will prove to be one that will bring us into the 21** Century. It is, also, just phase one (1) of a minimum of four (4) phases. Phase two (2) is to place in a classified system. Phase three (3) is to enclose the library shelves on both the first and second floors to enable us to have an enclosure that will allow us to maintain proper temperature and humidity to insure the preservation of the valuable books that we have in our collection. Phase four (4) is probably the most important and will require due diligence. Our books are disintegrating at a rapid rate and it is incumbent upon us to setup a restoration schedule to preserve all our books. This is and will be a continuing lengthy process and will require the expertise of those qualified to perform such a service. We are in search of any who qualify and we will promptly respond to any queries. We must be aware and expect that a project of this magnitude will require expenditures yearly to preserve the heritage that is now our responsibility to preserve for generations to come. All are invited to visit our library and to discover the wealth of knowledge that awaits those who are interested to learn of our historical antiquity. A true treasure-trove for those who research for the hidden and ambiguous mysteries of Freemasonry, will you partake? Respectfully submitted, Robert L. Tomlinson, Jr., PGM W.. Wayne H. Rollf W.. Aaron M. Shoemaker LIBRARY COMMITTEE REPORT ADDENDEM 2007 I believe that the following is important information and, as such, necessary to bring before this Grand Lodge for consideration of implementing a course of action to preserve our Library. As we have been in the process of cataloging the books in our Library this year, we have
87
88
Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
2007-2008
found that our books are in a self destruct mode, or should I say, that we have allowed them to deteriorate for want of action to prevent it. Some of our books are not even able to be picked up, let alone to be opened, without them coming apart. Many, if not all, are in need of some stage restoration and this will require experts to do the work. We have in our possession many valuable books dating back to the 1840's and, as such, give us great insight of Freemasonry in the earlier years. Unfortunately, information of this nature is valuable to anyone who is a researcher of our early history, and if we do not preserve these books, they will be gone forever. It is also necessary that we enclose these books in a room that will be sealed for the proper application of temperature and humidity, so that when once restored, we can maintain our Library for future generations of Masons. Probably most Masons of Kansas are not even aware that the room, which is a multi-function room and also houses our Grand Lodge Library and Museum, is not even air-conditioned. A project of this magnitude is not one that will have an immediate conclusion, but rather one that will enable our Grand Lodge to maintain our heritage for those who will succeed us. Our Council of Administration this year has taken it under advisement to seek answers to a solution and to seek financial aid to preserve that which has been placed in our charge. In order that the Craft is not left in the dark on this subject, this addendum is presented now, so that when recommendations are presented for your future consideration, you will be aware of their intentions. PROPOSED CONSTITUTION AND BY-LAW CHANGES Proposal #1 5-105â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Who May be Punished - A n y Mason under sentence of suspension, or anv demitted Mason if the offense occurred prior to the issue of the demit, as well as all other Masons, may be charged, tried and punished, if found guilty except that the accountability of Entered Apprentices and Fellow Crafts should be limited to the degree of light received. Offending Lodges may be charged, tried and punished if found guilty, as provided in this code. Rationale: As chairman of Trials and Punishment last year we had a case of a Master Mason having relations with another Master Masons wife. This Master Mason belonged to Lodge "A" and the other Master Mason belonged to Lodge "B". At a regular meeting of Lodge "A" this Master Mason ask for and received a demit as his dues were paid and no charges were pending against him. The very next night in Lodge "B" charges were filed against him and forwarded to the Grand Secretary and to the Grand Master, then to me. After reading all this information and the law book I called the Grand Master and we agreed that no charges could be brought against this man as he was outside of Masonry. He is now a Mason with a demit that shows him in good standing and can join any lodge he wishes. If this proposal is passed this demit could be revoked and he could be expelled from Masonry. (Amended 20081 Respectfully submitted, Don E. Robinett, St Johns Lodge No. 113 This by-law proposal Passed. Proposal #2 2-131.

JURISPRUDENCE COMMITTEE REPORT Most Worshipful Grand Master, on behalf of the Jurisprudence Committee, I wish to bring the report of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas. This report of the Jurisprudence Committee is a condensed version of the more important and significant items addressed by the committee in the preceding Grand Lodge year. Many of these items considered by the committee were not of general interest to the craft, only to the parties involved. Since the last Grand Lodge Annual Communication, we had one formal meeting of the committee. Most of the work of the committee has been handled by correspondence, telecommunication and discussions with individual members of the committee who responded orally and not in writing. Report of the Secretary of the Council of Administration The committee has reviewed the report submitted, and we find that no part of the report requires comment or action. Most Worshipful Grand Master, I move the report of the Secretary of the Council of Administration be approved. Rules by Our Grand Master The Committee has reviewed in detail all of the Rulings, Edicts, and Orders of our Most Worshipful Grand Master, Jimmie L. Grassi, Sr., as reported in the advanced proceedings, it is our unanimous opinion that all of said rulings were cleariy within the powers and prerogatives of the office of Grand Matser, and that they were all issued with the Craft in mind. I, therefore, move the Rulings, Edicts, and Orders of our Grand Master be approved. Fraternally, T.

CHURCH-LODGE RELATION COMMITTEE In light of today's societal standards which are dropping, it seems imperative that we, as Masons defending and supporting our belief in God, must be anxious and willing to support our churches in whatever ways we can agree upon. We know that there are churches who are not in agreement with us, largely because they do not know or understand our beliefs and values. There must be ways we can agree with our churches and grow together in open discussion. There are also many churches who have no problem with our traditions and values and a friendly and cooperative attitude with them can be to mutual benefit. An effort on our part to let our communities know what we are and what we stand for should be of benefit to us all. There are those in our society who would like to see any mention of God be eliminated so we do need to be alert. Arris Johnson, PGM, Chairman CORRESPONDENCE COMMITTEE REPORT (from Advanced Report) To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas: No column survives unbroken and time takes it's fee for that which must be, leaving us on this Earth to mourn that fate which we will all—and we know not when—face.

COUNCIL OF ADMINISTRATION REPORT (from the Advanced Reports The Council of Administration is comprised of Grand Lodge elected officers, charged with providing leadership and guidance to the Grand Lodge of Kansas on issues of management and assisting the Grand Master, when requested, on matters brought before him. As a result, the COA met on a regular basis throughout the year to discuss those matters important to the Grand Lodge and the Grand Master. The Council of Administration convened for the first time immediately following the Grand Lodge session on March 17, 2007 at the Marriott Courtyard in Salina, Kansas. The newly elected administration is M.-.W.-. Jimmie L. Grassi, Sr, Grand Master; R.-.W.. Sterling P. Hornbuckle, III, Deputy Grand Master; R..W.. RoyT. Sullivan, Jr., Grand Senior Warden; R. W.-. L. Kent Needham, Grand Junior Warden who acted as Secretary for the year. Also attending the meeting was: M.-.W.-. Clifford D. Knauss, PGM, Grand Treasurer; R.-.W.-. Robert B.

An issue regarding the Scottish Rite NASCAR vehicle and the potential for violation of Kansas IVIasonic Law was brought before the council. The matter was handled with respect and dignity by all parties involved. Participation in the annual communication of Prince Hall Grand Lodge F & AM was encouraged. A proposal from the Scottish Rite Journal to include "The Kansas IVIason" in each of their 6 annual publications at a cost savings to the Grand Lodge was discussed. It was determined that we would not participate in their generous offer at this time. Lindsborg Lodge #397 had a portion of the Lodge fapade fall and needed temporary financial assistance. The Grand Lodge assisted in providing a reasonable solution for all parties. It was determined that there was a need to draw new areas and districts due to the continued migration of the population throughout the state. This has been a very difficult issue to address and was on the agenda of several meetings. While the project has been completed for this year, it is expected that this issue will continue to be a concern in years to come as a result of population shifts which are expected to continue. There was an issue of a Kansas Mason, not currently residing in the state, making contact with other Grand Jurisdictions without the permission of the Grand Lodge of Kansas. It appeared as if he was using his IVIasonic affiliation for personal gain. The brother was advised that his actions were a breach of Masonic protocol and was asked to discontinue his activity. He did so and the Grand Secretary issued apologies to the Grand Jurisdictions that were affected. Several items of Grand Lodge maintenance were brought before the COA. The air conditioning unit needed to be replaced, a new floor polisher was authorized and the front door chime and alarm malfunctioned. As a result of its age and lack of replacement part, the system needed to be replaced. At the time of this writing, the cost and features of the new system have yet to be determined. The Mentoring Handbook was completed and sent to Lynn Carson, Chairman of the Committee on Education for review. The Plan is to assign a mentor when a petition is favorable balloted and have him begin interacting with the new member after the first degree. M.-.W.-. Clifford D. Knauss, Grand Treasurer resigned for personal reasons and M..W.-. Robert L. Tomlinson, Jr. was appointed by the Grand Master to fill the position until the next Grand Lodge session. The Council was updated several times on the progress of the Strategic Planning Committee and the CHIPS program. Other items received, discussed and acted upon, if not reported elsewhere in the proceedings of the Annual Communication of this Grand Lodge, may be read in the minutes of each meeting of the Council, a copy of which is on file in the Grand Lodge office in Topeka. All meetings of the Council were cordial and harmony prevailed at all times as the members of the Council labored together in unity for the betterment of Freemasonry in Kansas.

To try and improve their ritualistic work and government of each Lodge, an Annual Membership training seminar would be held.

In an effort to address this membership loss, the Grand Lodge recommended the use of open houses; establish Awards of Excellence to individual members and/or Lodges. The Grand Master stated that Masonry must adapt to changes in society to entice membership. A failure to do so could lead to the eventual loss of the fraternity. DELAWARE: At its 38"' Semi-Annual Communication celebrating the 200* year, the Grand Master dedicated this year to all Masons of Delaware for their pride, dedication, determination and devotion. GEORGIA: At its 220"'Annual Communication it was reported that they had a membership loss of 1167 and dissolution of one Lodge.

A pro-active measure to recognize the Prince Hall Grand Lodge was initiated. UTAH: In order to protect lodge legal records throughout the jurisdiction, a central file was established to allow lodges to store those records at the Grand Lodge. I now move the adoption and acceptance of this report as a whole. Fraternally, Robert L. Tomlinson, Jr., Chairman KANSAS MASONIC UNIVERSITY REPORT (from the Advanced Report) Once again, this year the Masons of Kansas proved that they want to improve their base of Masonic l<nowledge by supporting our Kansas Masonic University. The KMU continues to be quite active. Fifty-six men's courses were purchased this year and we continue to supply the annual warden's school with courses for the ladies. Plus, several courses were sent free of charge to Brother Masons who are serving our country overseas. We are proud to be able to remind our troops that their Brothers support their efforts. Further, while away from home and more than likely absent from a lodge setting, they can study different areas of our fraternity. I believe the revised courses that were finished last year are working quite well. As always, we continue our attempt to keep these courses current. Now that the Lodge Intender book has been updated, Course II is available. Further, I am still working on essay-based courses for each of the three Blue Lodge degrees. As noted last year, the Grand Lodge of California F. & A.M. has provided us access to their resources. Plus, the Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania A.F. & A.M. has a nice self-study model I am studying. These courses are aimed at examining more closely Masonic symbolism and philosophy through reading and writing.

RITUALISTIC COMMITTEE REPORT (from the Advanced Report) The Committee on Ritualistic Work was deeply saddened by the death of our committee chairman Terry Carter in June of 2007. He was a tireless worker for Ritualistic proficiency and will be greatly missed by all Masons in the State but particularly by the Grand Lecturers who have worked closely with him for the last few years. With his passing, Grand IVIaster Jimmie Grassi has asked me to fill out the year as chairman and I thank him for the honor of this appointment. I hope that we have been able to carry on the tasks as Terry would have wanted. I believe that Terry attended the orientation session for the DDGM's and ADGM's in Salina and assisted in the orientation in regard to district meetings. The annual meeting of the Committee was held in Wichita at the Masonic Home on August 1T^ with all of the committee members present. The assignments for the district meetings were made to be presented to the lecturers the following day. This was the second year for allowing schools to be scheduled in the fall rather than in January and February only. Several of the districts have taken advantage of that and it seems to be working well in most cases. It does help to ease up the problem of having enough lecturers to cover all of the schools requested for the January/February time period. During the year, we have lost one of our Emeritus members by death, R.-.W.. Hurlbut K. Graves from St Francis and another Emeritus member, R.-. W.. Joseph M. Ballew moved to Florida to be near family. Both of these brothers have served Masonry faithfully for many years and they will be missed. The Ritualistic meeting for the Grand Lecturers, Assistants, and interested ritualists was held on August 18"' at North Star Lodge in Wichita with nearly all of the Grand Lecturers in attendance. Assignments of Districts were handed out and a review of the work to be exemplified at the district meetings was conducted. Six district meetings were scheduled in Sept., Oct. and Nov. with one of them being rescheduled later. Thirty district meetings were scheduled in January and February. With some of the districts joining together for their meeting, all 42 districts have had meetings scheduled. I want to take this opportunity to thank all of the Grand Lecturers and Assistants who give their time and talent to the important job of preserving our ritual. I also want to thank North Star Lodge for the use of their facility for our meeting on Saturday. Most importantly, I want to thank Leiand Salts, the secretary of the committee, for his work on keeping us all in line and informed. His assistance is invaluable. Fraternally and respectfully submitted, David F. Snyder, Chairman TRIALS AND PUNISHMENT COMMITTEE REPORT To the M.-.W.. Grand Lodge AF and AM of Kansas. We have had only one case so far this year and this was against a brother in Oxford Lodge No. 165 and was filed by Wellington Lodge No. 150. The brother from Oxford Lodge was a worker in a Boy Scout camp in Oklahoma in 2002 and fondled one of the boy's genitals. The boy finally told his father, who is a member of Wellington Lodge. The brother from Oxford Lodge is now serving a two-year prison term in Oklahoma and has been expelled from Masonry. The committee is pleased to be of service to our Grand Master and to our Grand Lodge and wished we had nothing to do for that is the way it should be. Don E. Robinett, PGM, Chairnnan Glenn E.

The report was accepted as submitted. The 152nd Annual Communication of the Grand Lodge of Kansas was brought to a close in Ample Form. The Grand Tyler was informed. The ladies were invited into the Lodge Room for the Necrology Service, given by the Grand Chaplain, Brother Don Davidson. WHAT DO WE DO? Major Richards and I were called at 5:30 in the morning and told that we were being dispatched to Atchison, Kansas to tell Janet Wisdom that her husband, SSG Clint Wisdom, had been killed in Iraq. It has been over four years ago since that day, and I remember it as cleariy as if it were yesterday. We had a little difficulty finding Janet; we ended up having to go to her place of work. I remember thinking how strange it must have been for people driving by to see two Army officers in class A, or dress, uniforms standing on a residential street in Atchison, a stone's throw away from the mighty Missouri river. While waiting to find out where she was employed, we grabbed a cup of coffee at the downtown McDonald's restaurant. There, too, we got a few looks and stares. I doubt if anyone knew why we were there, at least I hope not. We drove out past Benedictine College to Valley Hope, a treatment facility for those who admit their addiction to alcohol and other drugs. When we arrived, we went directly to the office, and just by walking in, the receptionist knew. We later learned that her son was on active duty in the Navy, and she saw us and almost passed out from the shock. I asked if we could see Janet Wisdom in private, and shortly we were in a room together. Janet's first words were, "What do we do?" As you can all imagine, this was a time that was beyond overwhelming; there is no scripted response, tears do not automatically flow, and one simply is stunned into a kind of emotional silence. As the news makes its way from words into horrible reality, her response was so honest, so straight forward that it could not be questioned nor could it be adequately answered at that moment in time: "What do we do" she said, she pleaded..."Tell me, what do we do?" In the days and months that followed that morning in Atchison, Janet found that not only did she know what to do, but with God's help, and the presence of her friends, she overcame the crisis, the almost insurmountable horror of losing her husband by an lED thousands of miles away, and she survived. Janet later served as advisor to the Adjutant General in the area of family support and was instrumental in raising awareness of the needs of families after the death of a deployed service member. Masonry has no religious creed and, therefore, we never ask a Brother about doctrine or the intricacies of his own personal faith. As a group, we acknowledge our dependence on one God who we know has created and is still creating. Masonry is so much more than just another organization or club, and like many others in this room, the hair stands up on the back of my neck when someone compares Freemasonry to a civic club. Masonry is about forming rock solid values within the core of a person that God has created. Values

that answer the question that Janet Wisdom asl(ed, "What do we do?" We do the right thing, the Godly thing...that which is more important than want, more important than desire, more important than weaith or position, we do the right thing. That is why we gather this moming - to honor those who have graced us with their presence and delight us in our memory. We give thanks for those who have passed our way, especially three of our Past Grand Masters, and many others whose attention to the fabric of IVIasonry has the question, "What do we do?" in their lives with teaching of our beloved fratemity manifested by lives of temperance, fortitude and justice in every act and every decision. There is only one way to really honor the memory of those who have died, and that, my Brothers, is to render to others the oppomnity to become a part of this amazing Brothertiood. we honor them by sharing those time-tested values; we honor them by giving them the story of that wrtiich was lost but never forgotten. If the beauty of Masonry stays with us, it is like a flower that we pick, so that no one elsemay ever enjoy its fragrance. Next month I will be visiting with 15 or so Brothers of our fratemity \Nt)o are on active duty overseas, and I can guarantee you that when asked the question, "What do we do?", their answer will come right from the center of our teaching..."We will do vtfhat is right." Let us accept nothing less of ourselves. With prayer, Brother Don brought the Necrology Service to a close.
With no other presentations or business to come before the Grand Lodge, M.-. W.-. Jimmie L. Grassi, Sr. and his Lady, Jan, retired, bringing to a close his term as Grand Master for 2007-2008.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE M.'.W.-. GRAND LODGE OF ANCIENT FREE AND ACCEPTED MASONS OF KANSAS ONE HUNDRED FIFTY-THIRD ANNUAL COMMUNICATION
Salina, Kansas March 20, 2009 The Installing Grand Marshal, along with the assistance of the Grand Senior and Junior Deacons, were instructed to present the Grand Master, M.-.W.-. Sterling PHornbuckle III, in the Grand East. The M.-.W.-. Grand Master of the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas was introduced, he was saluted with public Grand Honors, and given a most hearty welcome. M..W.-. Sterling was presented with a Gavel of Authority for use during the Grand Lodge session. Grand Master Sterling P Hornbuckle III declared the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas Public Opening Session in order for the purpose of receiving and introducing guests. The Flag of our Country was brought fonward by the Heroes of 76. The Grand Chaplain was instructed by M.. W.-. Sterling P Hornbuckle III, Grand Master, to present the Bible to the altar along with the square and compasses. The Holy Bible is a rule and guide to our faith, by the square and compass we are taught to regulate our lives and actions and keep them in due balance with all mankind. The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of our Country was given. To everyone's enjoyment, the All-Masonic Choir sang "God Bless America" again this year. Everyone rose for the "National Anthem," which was also sang by the All Masonic Choir. A tribute to the flag was given by the R.-.W.-. Grand Flag Bearer, Vernon Butt. "Back in 1776 after all efforts had tailed for the colonists to convince Great Britain that we needed to have self government by good upright and just people, so we could choose our leadership for ourselves and educate our children and practice the principles and tenets that so many of them believed in it was necessary, that in order to convince them of that, having failed in other ways, the colonists declared their independence and prepared to battle for that freedom and liberty that they thought was so important. They found a need to have a banner to carry before their armies. The person they selected to lead those armies was George Washington. He was a great leader, but he needed help in the design. He wanted to show the separation for Great Britain. He wanted to show that it was divine guidance that made them believe that the liberty and freedom they were about to fight for was a true and just cause. He got with a friend of his, Francis Hopkinson, and they came up with the design that is the Stars and Stripes, very similar to what we see before us. Now then, neither one of these fellows knew how to sew. However, they would never have asked a woman to join in that fight with them. Had their plans been discovered and their leadership been unveiled, under certain circumstances it would have cost them their lives. But since they could not get the job done without a woman, as much as we can not get out jobs done today without our ladies, they turned to their friend, Mr. Ross, and asked if his wife, a well known seamstress, would put together that design that they had come up with. They were a bit concerned that perhaps the stars might be too difficult that were going to represent the thirteen colonies, to have on that flag and asked what she thought. She said if you will allow me to make five pointed stars I do not think it will be too difficult at all. They were curious why. With a simple demonstration, which I will repeat for you today, she took a piece of cloth, folded in half and continued to make four other folds, and with one stroke of her scissors, she was able to produce a perfect five pointed star, every time. That banner was carried in front of our armies and even the Continental Congress saw fit, on June 14*, 1777, to pass the first flag act. Unlike our modern legislation it was relatively simple. It said 'Resolve that the Flag of the United States be made of thirteen stripes, alternate red and white. That the Union be thirteen stars, white on a field of blue, representing a new constellation.' There were eight years of battles until the British were finally convinced and recognized our independence, and our new nation was born. We practiced, supported and promoted the liberty and freedom our flag represented and our nation grew, abundantly. The British did not like that very much. They did not like being whipped to start with, and
53
54
Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
2008-2009
they did not like the fact that we were prospering. So they tried to control our commerce. By 1812 we decided that it was time to teach them that we were going to have commerce with other nations and they were not going to rule our harbors and our ships that we did commerce with, but it involved more battles in the War of 1812 ensued. The British, still feeling a little down about the way the last war turned out, fought the fight pretty hard. They stormed Washington DC and burned our Capital, and our White House. They took prisoners of war. One of those prisoners was Dr. Beans, who was onboard ship in the Chesapeake Bay. There was a young author who was a practicing attorney, he aspired to be an author but had to make a living so he was an attorney, he went with one of the military officers, because of his ability to persuade, to get the release of Dr. Beans, to treat our wounded. While they were onboard ship in the harbor they garnered that release. However, they would not let him leave for fear they had discovered some of the plans. The plans soon unfolded. On September 13", ships moved into position and prepared for battle. They were after the port of Baltimore. More importunately. Fort McHenry. Fort McHenry was named after one of Washington's generals and there was a Major, Major Armistead, who was running that fort. He was what we call a flag waiver. Not just any flag, he wanted to make sure the British knew what country they were coming to. He had commissioned Mary Pickersgill to make a flag for his fort. He made sure the British didn't have any trouble seeing it. That flag was 30' high and 42' long. Each of the 15 stripes, eight red and seven white, were 2' in width. Each of the 15 stars were 26" from point to point. He flew that flag proudly. Maybe that is why the British choose that fort for their bombardment. The bombardment began that night and lasted throughout that night. It was not until early the next morning that the young attorney came onboard deck of that ship to see what had happened and by the 'dawn's earty light', yes his name was Francis Scott Key, he could see that those 'stars and stripes' were still flying over that fort. That freedom and liberty were still being fought for. He was so inspired that he wrote down in prose, words that were later set to music, byJohn Stafford Smith, and became our National Anthem. So we won those battles, as well. We continued to practice the liberty and freedom that so many fought for and In 1831 a young ships captain was getting ready to set sail out of Salem, Massachusetts. Some friends had brought him a flag for his ship, the SS Charles Doggett, and as Captain William Driver was getting ready to set sail they presented it to him and he told his hands to raise those colors. They got them attached to the mast and ran it up. Being a dutiful ships captain he stepped back to salute that flag, and as he did a breatti of wind from the ocean caught that fabric and brought out into full view. As it snapped back down to the mast, almost as if to return his salute, he declared, 'Oh, Glory' and during all of his travels as a seaman, whenever he called for that flag, his crew referred to it as 'Old Glory'. When he retired to Nashville, Tennessee, he loved to tell the stories of his travel, and he was a celebrated man in his community of Nashville. Every chance they had for a celebration he would get Old Glory, and he would run it up and have their celebrations. When the Civil War broke out, Tennessee was in the South. Confederates did not like that flag. Didn't like its reputation, and they came after it. Many searches were made of his home and his property looking for that flag, but they thought it must have been spirited away somewhere. When the 6" Ohio Regiment came and took Nashville, they went to run a Union flag up on the Capitol, it was rather small. Someone found Captain Driver and said 'wouldn't it be nice if Old Glory were still around so it could be up there'? He said 'come with me', they went to his home where he cut open his bed covers and there underneath the material was where he hid Old Glory. He got it out and even though he was 60 years old he climbed up the ladder to the top of the Capitol and helped them hoist that flag. The Star Spangled Banner which Francis Scott Key wrote his prose to and Old Glory that Captain Driver had, these are two particular flags that we have in our history. Both can be seen at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington DC. They have that particular name, otherwise, our flag is known as the Stars and Stripes. These are not the only tributes paid to it, because in 1892 they were celebrating the 400* anniversary of Christopher Columbus discovering the New Worid. Many celebrations were being held, just as we do today. They were having parades, and patriotism abounded. There was a Pastor in Pennsylvania, The Reverend Francis Bellamy who was very interested in education. He thought is was not important enough that we taught our children the history of our country and our flag, he thought that freedom and liberty was so important that they should make a daily Pledge of Allegiance to that flag and the freedom and liberty it represented. So he
2008-2009
Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
wrote The Pledge of Allegiance, had it published and distributed to the schools. On October 12,1892 it was recited before the children began their studies that day. That took hold and became a standard in our institutions of learning for many many years. In tribute to that flag, there were many who felt like we should have a day, a special holiday just to honor that flag. However, our country became occupied, unfortunately with other battles. World Wars were fought. Many other battles were fought. Many years passed, so many that it was August 3"", 1948 before our President, Harry Truman, signed into law that June 14" would from then forward be celebrated as Flag Day. No matter where you go in this world, when we see those Stars and Stripes it is universally recognized as a emblem of liberty and freedom. But it is not just this world, because on July 20'', 1969, a young man by the name of Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin planted in the Sea of Tranquility, on the moon, that emblem of liberty and freedom. He knew that that was the new frontier, and he wanted everyone that followed in his path to recognize that it was liberty and freedom and the individual rights we enjoy in this great nation that led the way I can think of no finer tribute to pay to our flag than for us, the Brothers of this great fraternity to follow our Brothers. You see, everyone I mentioned, who has had anything to do with the praise, song and pledge of this great emblem was a Brother Mason. Washington, Hopkinson, Scott Key, Don Stafford, and Bellamy, President Truman and Buzz Aldrin, so let us do that, let us continue the practice all of our principles and tenets that formed this great nation and pay tribute always to this wonderful emblem of liberty and freedom." M.-.W.-. Sterling P Hornbuckle III requested that the distinguished guests need to be in the West to be introduced. He then gave his thanks to M.-.W.-. Allan Hurlburt, his Masonic Father, for presiding in the East, Worshipful Barry Stuart, Master of Peace Lodge #243 and R.-.W.-. David Dellinger also of Peace Lodge #243.

GRAND MASTER'S ADDRESS Right Worshipful Deputy Grand Master, Grand Lodge Officers, Past Grand Masters, Visiting Dignitaries, Members and Brethren of the Grand Lodge of Kansas, I welcome you to this 153rd Annual Communication of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Kansas. Your attendance is greatly appreciated.
To our visitors from other Grand Jurisdictions, we extend to you a hearty welcome. It has been five years since M.-.W.. Allan Hurlburt asked me if I wanted to be one of his Grand Officers. I thought a minute and agreed. I had no idea he wanted me to serve as his Senior Deacon. I said I would have to share this with Winona. After many thoughts she agreed, so we started our journey toward being your Grand Master. It seems only yesterday we started that journey.
To the ladies for the great meals they prepared for us at our emblem presentations and official visits, we thank each of you.
To my Masonic father, Allan and his lady, Mary Lou, who gave Winona and me an opportunity very few people get to receive, thank you. Each of you are the greatest.

As Chairman of the Finance Committee, Brother Adiey Johnson gave the report for the Finance Committee.
FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT (from the Advanced Report) The members of the Finance Committee wish to report that during the year 2008/2009 the financial position of the Grand Lodge of Kansas has been reduced, as our investments suffered losses of approximately 33%, or $1,600,000 for the year. We still out-performed the U.S. markets by approximately 3.5%, as the average of the losses sustained by the three principal indexes (Dow Industrials, S & P 500 and NASDAQ) was 36.5 for the year 2008. Our Grand Master has kept the Grand Lodge expenses within budget limit. The addition to the Grand Lodge Endowment Fund this year exceeded $18,900. During the year, the Finance Committee has regularly reviewed Grand Lodge accounts and regularly compared revenues and expenses with the projected budget amounts to that date. Additionally, the Committee reviewed all investments of the Grand Lodge, seeing that all income was collected and reinvested or transferred to general funds as needed. A general survey of Grand Lodge property was made and it was determined to be in satisfactory condition. The members of the Grand Lodge Finance Committee thank Most Worshipful Sterling P. Hornbuckle III for his leadership, cooperation and assistance. We are most appreciative for the opportunity to serve the Grand Lodge of Kansas during 2008/2009. Fraternally submitted, AdIey E. Johnson, Chairman Robert Tomlinson, Jr., PGM Jeff A. Breault Kyle Bell It was moved and seconded that the Finance Committee report be approved. Motion carried.

To the Council of Administration Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position of Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas and Affiliates (the Grand Lodge) as of December 31, 2008, and the related consolidated statements of activities and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Grand Lodge's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. The prior year summarized comparative information has been derived fi-om the Grand Lodge's 2007 consolidated financial statements and, in our report dated September 10, 2008, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.
a 2 g
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated 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. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
f" f g g
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas and Affiliates as of December 31, 2008, and the changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accoimting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
g C " 5 i 1
Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. The schedule of expenses on page 19 is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic consolidated financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continuedl Temporarily Restricted Temporarily restricted net assets include contributed net assets for which donor imposed time and purpose restrictions have not been met and the ultimate purpose of the contribution is not permanently restricted. Permanently Restricted Permanently restricted net assets include contributed net assets which require, by donor restriction, that the corpus be invested in perpetuity and only the income be made available for program operations in accordance with donor restrictions. Contributions The Grand Lodge reports gifts of cash and other assets as restricted support if they are received with donor stipulations that limit the use of the donated assets. When a donor restriction expires, that is, when a stipulated time restriction ends or purpose restriction is accomplished, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and reported in the statement of activities as net assets released from restrictions. Contributions whose use is limited by donorimposed stipulations that neither expire by passage of time nor can be fulfilled or otherwise removed by actions of the Grand Lodge are recorded as permanently restricted net assets. Income Tax Status The Most Worshipfiil Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Kansas, Perpetual Life Membership Plan Fund, Inc. and Kansas Masonic Grand Lodge Endowment Fund, Inc. are exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(10) of the Internal Revenue Code and have each been classified as other than a private foundation. The Grand Masters Charity Fund, Inc. is exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and has been classified as other than a private foundation. However, income from certain activities not directly related to the Organizations' tax-exempt purposes is subject to taxation as unrelated business income.

Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies TContinued) Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amoimts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Functional Expense Allocation The majority of expenses, including salaries, are specifically identified as member service or general and administrative. Other expenses have been allocated between member service and general and administrative based on either the percentage of member service salaries and general and administrative salaries to total salaries or allocated based upon the estimated percent of use by the respective expense category. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In July 2006, the Financial Accoimting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements in accordance with Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition of tax benefits, classification on the balance sheet, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. In December 2008, the FASB provided for a deferral of the effective date of FIN 48 for certain nonpublic enterprises to aimual financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 5, 2008. The Grand Lodge has elected this deferral and accordingly will be required to adopt FIN 48 in its 2009 annual financial statements. Prior to adoption of FIN 48, the Grand Lodge will continue to evaluate its uncertain tax positions and related income tax contingencies under Statement 5, Accounting for Contingencies. SFAS No. 5 requires the Grand Lodge accrue for the losses it believes are probable and can be reasonably estimated. While management has not yet completed its analysis, it does not anticipate that the adoption of FIN 48 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continuedl Statement of Financial Accounting Standard 157 (SFAS 157) is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The disclosure provisions of SFAS 157 establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under SFAS 157 are described below: Level 1
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
Level 2
Quoted prices, in markets that are not considered to be active or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly;
Level 3
Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to fair value measurement and unobservable.
Inputs are used in applying the various valuation techniques and broadly refer to the assumptions that market participants used to make valuation decisions, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may include market price information, volatility statistics, specific and broad credit data, liquidity statistics, and other factors. The classification of a financial asset within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. However, the determination of what constitutes "observable" requires significant judgment by management. Management considers observable data to be that market data which is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary and provided by multiple, independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market. The categorization of a fijnd within the hierarchy is based upon the pricing transparency of that fiind and does not necessarily correspond to management's perceived risk of that fund. SFAS 157 is effective for the Grand Lodge's year ended December 31, 2008 and subsequent years. Implementation of this SFAS had no effect on net assets of the Grand Lodge; however, new disclosures are required and are included in Note 3. There has been no change in the method of measurement of fair value between December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007.

Endowment (Continued) Interpretation of Relevant Law The Management of the Grand Lodge has interpreted the State Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act (SPMIFA) as requiring the preservation of the fair value of the original gift as of the gift date of the donor restricted endowment ftinds absent explicit donor stipulations to the contrary. As a result of the interpretation, the Grand Lodge classifies as permanently restricted net assets (a) the original value of gifts donated to the permanent endowment, (b) the original value of subsequent gifts to the permanent endowment, and (c) accumulations to the permanent endowment made in accordance with the direction of the applicable donor gift instrument at the time the accumulation is added to the fimd. The remaining portion of the donor-restricted endowment fund that is not classified in permanently restricted net assets is classified as temporarily restricted net assets until those amounts are appropriated for expenditure by the organization in a manner consistent with the standard of prudence prescribed by SPMIFA. In accordance with SPMIFA, the organization considers the following factors in making a determination to appropriate or accumulate donor-restricted endowment funds: (1) The duration and preservation of the fund (2) The purposes of the Grand Lodge and the donor-restricted endowment fund (3) General economic conditions (4) The possible effect of inflation and deflation (5) The expected total return from income and the appreciation of investments (6) Other resources of the Grand Lodge (7) The investment policies of the Grand Lodge Endowment net asset composition by type of fund as of December 31, 2008: Unrestricted

Endowment (Continued) Return Objectives and Risk Parameters The Grand Lodge has adopted investment policies for certain endowment assets that attempt to provide a predictable stream of funding to programs supported by its endowment while seeking to maintain the purchasing power of the endowment assets. These endowment assets include those assets of donor-restricted fiinds that the Grand Lodge must hold in perpetuity or for a donor-specified period as well as board-designated funds. Under these policies, as approved by the Council of Administration, these endowment assets are invested in a maimer that is intended to provide management strategies in a prudent approach and measured against an appropriate comparative benchmark. Strategies Employed for Achieving Objectives To satisfy its long-term rate-of-retum objectives, the Grand Lodge relies on a total return strategy in which investment returns are achieved through both capital appreciation (realized and unrealized) and current yield (interest and dividends). The Council of Administration has not formally adopted an asset allocation policy. Spending Policv and How the Investment Objectives Relate to Spending Policy The Grand Lodge has not yet adopted a formal spending policy. No appropriations have been made from its donor-restricted endowment assets as of December 31, 2008. In establishing this policy, the long-term expected return on its endowment will be considered. Accordingly, over the long term, the Grand Lodge expects such a spending strategy to allow its endowment to grow..
Retirement Plans The Grand Lodge has a defined contribution retirement plan covering all employees with at least one year of service who agree to make contributions to the plan. The Grand Lodge matches participants' contributions to the plan up to 3% of the individual participant's salary. The expense of this plan for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 was $ 4,105 and $ 3,907, respectively. The Grand Lodge also makes monthly payments to two retired employees under separate individual agreements. These payments amounted to $ 3,696 and $ 5,046 for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

THE REPORT OF THE GRAND TREASURER (from the Advanced Report) To the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Kansas: We as Masons are constantly reminded that change is inevitable and certain, whether we like it or not. This past year has been quite a rude awakening to say the least. It certainly tests the minds of our Finance Committee to keep our heads above the water. I take this opportunity to call your attention to the many day to day duties our Grand Secretary, R.-.W.-. Robert B. Pfuetze, oversees that enables our Grand Lodge to function in a most efficient manner In this day and age, it is imperative to be able act on a moments notice to ward off any approaching danger. I do express my sincere appreciation for his service rendered and defininitely recommend to you to express your appreciation also. The Council of Administration has, once again, endeavored to do everything possible to remain within the budget set one year ago and has been quite successful in their efforts, keeping a watchful eye on all facets of our finances. The financial downturn everyone experienced the past year has been effected in all financial matters and we were not immune to these ravages. To maintain and protect the financial well being of our Grand Lodge of Kansas is their constant desire. The advance report you have received contains the Audited Report of our finances for the year just ended. We know that you have had only a short time to review it, but should you have any questions or suggestions, please make them known. We do make every effort to keep the brethren informed. I would draw the attention of all Lodges in the Grand Jurisdiction of Kansas to be continually vigilant in all your financial responsibilities having your eye on the future. Your future responsibility depends on what you do today to ensure that your Lodge will be financially secure tomorrow. Respectfully submitted, Robert L. Tomlinson, Jr., PGM and Grand Treasurer

the Kansas Masonic Foundation, saying they have gone beyond 20 million dollars in donations from Kansas Masons to KU Cancer Center and their endeavors. Kansas Masons can be proud of that. He also explained new pilot programs the Foundation has started, as well as a new Endowment program that all Masons can participate in. 100 % of the donations given to the Foundation goes to what the individual stipulates. M.-. W.-. Jeff then introduced Dr. Jensen, who spoke on tfie progress, programs and achievements of the Kansas Masonic Cancer Research Institute. He thanked everyone for their support and said the Institute will do the Masons of Kansas proud. It was moved and seconded that the report of the Kansas Masonic Foundation be adopted. The motion carried. KANSAS MASONIC FOUNDATION. INC. - 2008 REPORT (from the Advanced Report) To the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge of AF&AM of Kansas: Your Kansas Masonic Foundation was established in 1966 as a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization for the purpose of expanding Masonic Philanthropy in the fields of charitable, educational and scientific programs. The Foundation took that to a new level over the past several years. Thanks to the generous donations from Kansas Masons and their friends and families, in April 2008 we completed a $15 million pledge to the University of Kansas Medical Center's Kansas Masonic Cancer Research Institute. This pledge was reached in just over four years. Our gifts will help the institute in its effort to achieve designation as a National Cancer Institute (NCI) Comprehensive Cancer Center - a designation that will not only benefit Kansas residents but everyone in the region. NCI designation will bring new research, new resources for determining and providing more effective treatments, and greater opportunities for Institute staff to collaborate with the finest researchers across the state and the world. Application for the NCI designation is planned for 2011. The Foundation continued a successful cancer screening outreach program in which doctors and nurses from KU conducted free one-day clinics and seminars. These clinics were scheduled at six Lodges across the state. The host sites for 2008 included Goodland, Liberal, Lenexa, Hutchinson, Topeka and Pittsburg (January 2009). The 2009 host Lodges will be announced in the spring of 2009. If your Lodge is interested in being a host, please contact the Foundation office during business hours. The "C-Club" continues to be an important part of the Foundation. As always we invite Brother Masons and their families to view the Wall of Honor that is located at the Foundation office on the second floor of the Grand Lodge Building in Topeka. The Foundation welcomed three new Board of Trustees in 2008. They were Robert E. Anderson of Lenexa, R.-. W.-. Tracy L. Bloom of Salina and Darrell J. Shanteau of St. John.

The Partnership for Life Campaign: In November of 2003, the Foundation pledged to increase their fundraising four-fold by pledging $15 million in support of the KU Cancer Center as it seeks to attain National Cancer Institute (NCI) Designation as a Comprehensive Cancer Center. The NCI designation will ensure its status as one of the leading cancer research and treatment centers in the country, alongside of other institutions such as the Mayo Clinic and M.D. Anderson. This resulted in the re-naming of the research center as the Kansas Masonic Cancer Research Institute, bringing outward and highly visible recognition of the long-time support that Kansas Masons have made to the fight against cancer. As of December 31, 2008, Masons and friends had raised $15,396,276.91, exceeding the Campaign goal. Since 1974, the gifting total is more than the $20 million. As part of the Partnership for Life Campaign this year and as the capstone gift, the Morris Family Foundation gave $2 million in April to establish the Mark and Bette Morris Family Chair in Cancer Prevention. The gift supports a physician scientist, specializing in breast cancer prevention at the University of Kansas Cancer Center. The gift was in memory of Mark Morris who served on the KMF Board until his death in 2007. Recognitions for this "Capstone Phase" of the Campaign were given at the 2008 Grand Session. During the one year Lodge Challenge 1,212 Masons from 210 Lodges participated. The Lodges recognized in each of the categories and listed in order of largest gifts were: The Lodge with the highest percent of members contributing at least $100: First Place: Atwood Lodge #164 and Hoxie Lodge #348 Second Place: Lenexa Lodge #135 Honorable Mentions: Woodson Lodge #121 Advance Lodge #114 Madison Lodge #196 Easton Lodge #45 Overland Park Lodge #436 Anthem Lodge #284 Farmers Lodge #166 Johnson Lodge #441 Derby Lodge #365 Halstead Lodge #46

With the Campaign goal being reached, in June the KMF Board decided to fund a new program tor the University of Kansas Cancer Center, a patient navigator program. The patient navigator, who will be located in Wichita, will be a social worker who functions as a guide to help cancer patients move through the complexities of the healthcare system getting them more timely treatment, more information about treatment options and preventive behaviors.
In September the Board approved allocating $350,000 over the next two years to fund the expansion of The University of Kansas Cancer Center's pilot project program, allowing KU to fund 10 additional pilot projects by 2011. Dr. Roy Jensen, Director of the Kansas Masonic Cancer Research Institute and a Kansas Mason, stated that the objective of the pilot project program is to create and expedite innovation in cancer research that enhances the potential for scientific and medical breakthroughs, and to create or expand research capabilities, which translates into answering important questions about cancer and more importantly, saving lives.
C-Club: This recognition group of Masonic philanthropists began in 1981. Donors who have made cumulative gifts of $25 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 "CClub" are: Gold ($100 plus); Ruby ($500-plus); Diamond ($1,000-plus); Platinum ($5,000plus); and Philanthropist ($10,000-plus). An updated "C-Club" plaque listing through December 31, 2008, was sent to the Lodges in early 2009. There is also a Ladies "CClub."
Heritage Club: The Heritage Club recognizes the special group of Masons who have chosen to include the Kansas Masonic Foundation in their estate plans. Planned gifts include will bequests, charitable remainder trusts, gift annuities, insurance gifts and other gift vehicles, many of which can have favorable tax implications to the donor. As planned gifts have counting value to the Partnership for Life Campaign, efforts are under way to promote sound estate planning to Kansas Masons and encourage planned gifts to the Foundation.
New Endowment Fund Created: President Jeff Sowder announced at the 2008 Mason's Day in Kansas City another opportunity for Kansas Masons when they make their gifts to the Kansas Masonic Foundation. The Foundation Board at their September meeting approved setting up a new fund at the Foundation called The Kansas Masonic Foundation Cancer Endowment Fund. This fund provides a unique opportunity for someone to make gifts to the Foundation. The guidelines for the new fund are available from the Foundation or can be found on the website at www.kmfonline.org.
Kansas Masonic All-State Marching Band: Emporia State University was host to 214 of Kansas' finest musicians for the 25* Annual Kansas Masonic All-State High School Marching Band Camp held July 22-26, 2008. We thank the many Blue Lodges and affiliated bodies who sponsored students. We encourage these Masonic-affiliated groups to sponsor a student for the 2009 camp so that we can inform more young people about Masonry. Band Camp XXVI will be July 21 "-25" at Wichita State University.

The representatives from the Kansas Masonic Home, Robert Roswurm, Director of Development, Shawn Sullivan, Executive Director, along with Past Grand Master T. Michael Fegan, President of the Kansas Masonic Home, gave the report for the Kansas Masonic Home. M.-.W.-. Fegan reported on new developments and highlights for the 2008 year: A memorial was held in honor of Past Board President R. W.-. Terry W. Carter on Sunday, November 23, 2008 at the Kansas Masonic Home. Carter passed away on June 7, 2007. He had been the Board President of the Kansas Masonic Home since 2002, and had dedicated his time and efforts to the success of the organization. A gazebo, purchased with funds received from Keystone Lodge #102 and from family and friends of Terry Carter, was placed in the Center Courtyeard for all the residents of the Kansas Masonic Home to enjoy. The gazebo was dedicated in his honor by M.-.W.-. Sterling Hornbuckle III, Grand Master, with several Masonic dignitaries in attendance to take part in the Dedication. On November 21, 2008 M.-.W.-. Thomas C Raum, Jr., Past Grand Master, announced his retirement from the Kansas Masonic Home Board of Directors. Judge Raum has given 42 years of dedicated service to the Kansas Masonic Home, serving as secretary/treasurer. His official retirement was December 31, 2008. During his tenure, the Kansas Masonic Home's Independent Living Community was dedicated, and in 1996 named the Thomas C. Raum, Jr. Masonic Towers in his honor. He gave selflessly for 42 years to the success of the Kansas Masonic Home, and should be an inspiration to all the Masons of Kansas. In 2008 KMH provided over 40,000 days of care to over 270 individuals. KMH staff has worked very hard to provide quality care to residents, even when some residents have exhausted all of their financial resources. For those residents who no longer have the ability to financially support themselves, KMH provided nearly $300,000 in charitable care. It is no secret that many Masons were the recipients of that care. And this is why we exist, to lend a hand to those in need. The Good Deeds Fund made it possible for struggling residents to have clothing, wheelchairs, walkers and other assistive devices that they could not otherwise provide for themselves. In all, 2008 was a memorable year at KMH. It was a year of which we can be proud. Brothers, we rest assured that our Kansas Masonic Home is presenting to all Kansas the great concern that we have for the need of our fellow Masons and our fellow man. KMH has provided quality care for over 112 years. The Home has a solid reputation for its great service to Masons, Chapter members, and our ancilliary bodies. With that being said, the Board of Directors of the KMH has realized that it is time to move in a new direction and reposition ourselves for the future. In January the stakeholders of KMH gathered and participated in a week-long planning process. If I can tell you one thing to sum up that week it would be, "We recognize that the days of institutional care are coming to a close, and it is our desire to provide an environment that is more like home for residents." We are now taking the first steps in the Master Planning Process. We view this crossroads as an opportunity to provide those we serve with what we all really want - a place to call home! I would invite Shawn Sullivan, KMH Executive Director, to now come and talk more about the plans and process KMH has in place to plan for the future. Since it's founding in 1896 as a home for orphans and elders, Kansas Masonic Home has survived a whole host of challenges. Kansas Masonic Home has successfully maneuvered these challenges and the waves of change as shown by the quality care and services thousands of residents have received in the last 112 years. However, the Board of Directors and leadership team recognize that Kansas Masonic Home now stands at a crossroads. We are in the planning process of moving from an institutional model of care to a place

that looks and feels as much like home as possible, where residents direct their own lives. This is a hard concept to visualize, and I would like to show a video clip from CBS News featuring a retirement community in Manhattan, Kansas that gives a better picture of the direction Kansas Masonic Home is going. This will be an exciting journey for Kansas Masonic Home, where our physical environment organizational culture is changed, so we have a community that truly looks and feels like home to our residents. I encourage you to learn more about this process and stay tuned for more details over the next few months. Shawn Sullivan's report from the afternoon session: It is my pleasure to serve as the Executive Director of Kansas Masonic Home. I would like to follow up briefly on what I spoke about this morning during the opening session. Over 90 stakeholders of Kansas Masonic Home helped develop a comprehensive strategic plan in January. A large part of that plan was devoted to the development of households. There are five household elements that will lay the foundation and the structural support for the physical and cultural manifestation of home. The first element is resident-directed service. Residents who reside within a household arise in the morning as they desire, eat what they want and when they want, and make individual and collective decisions that create home for all who live there. The second element is values driven, resource bearing leadership. During our strategic planning, 23 values were developed that guide who we are and what our purpose is as an organization. Our goal is to make everything we do individually and collectively reflect those beliefs. The third element is a change in organizational structure. In order for residents to control their daily lives, the structure of the organization must be changed to support de-centralized self led teams where frontline staff have the authority, competence and accountability to help residents direct their lives. The fourth element is that the physical environment reflects home. Households physically consist of 16-20 residents living in a physically separate unit with their own living room, dining room, kitchen, laundry facilities and private rooms where possible. The fifth element is financial sustainability. Studies have shown that operational costs are no more than in a traditional institutional environment. It will be very important that Kansas Masonic Home moves these five elements fonward in an integrated and comprehensive manner. Over the next four months, we will engage the help of consultants to complete an integrated business plan. By July, we will have a campus master plan, project scope, household footprints, phasing assumptions, culture assessment report, project budget, preliminary timeline, and financial projection. These tools will help us to create an active and vibrant community that Masons across Kanss will be proud to call their own. Speaking of financial sustainability, we recently received our audited financial statements. Like more organizations, we have been affected by the economy and have seen a significant decrease in our investments. However, the financial health of Kansas Masonic Home remains solid. Thank you for your continued support of your Kansas Masonic Home. -Shawn Sullivan

He had been board president of Kansas Masonic Home since 2002 and dedicated his time and efforts to the success of the organization. A gazebo purchased with funds received from Keystone Lodge #102, and family and friends of Terry Carter, was placed in the Center Courtyard for all residents of the Kansas Masonic Home to enjoy. The gazebo was dedicated in his honor by Most Worshipful Sterling Hornbuckle III, with several Masonic dignitaries in attendance to take part in the dedication. A wellness center and therapy room renovation was paid for by a generous $20,000 donation from the Valley Center Lodge after they consolidated with the Newton Lodge. The wellness center renovation included a face-lift and many new pieces of equipment. The new equipment and new wellness staff has led to a wellness program encouraging an active and lively lifestyle with three times as many participants. Numerous special fraternal functions were hosted by KMH during 2008 which included: the District #26 Annual Banquet; Past Patrons and Matrons potluck dinners; the MasonicHome Lodge and Albert Pike Ladies Table Lodge; Job's Daughters luncheon and meetings; North Star Lodge meetings and Bingo night; Albert Pike and Masonic Home Lodge installation of officers; Albert Pike meetings; Albert Pike teacher of the year banquet; Albert Pike oyster feed; Masonic Home Lodge #450 bi-weekly meetings; Masonic Home Lodge chili feed, steak fry and watermelon feed; Amaranth monthly meetings; Keystone High 12 Club Luncheons; Queen City Rebekah #521 meetings; the Grand Chapter Christmas in July and the Annual Grand Chapter visit in November.

Administration The Board of Directors for 2008 were: M.-.W.-. T. Michael Fegan, President; Allen Hale, Vice President; Mary Bolton; M.-.W.-. Thomas C. Raum, Jr., Secretary/Treasurer; M ..W.-. Sterling Hornbuckle III; Dennis Johnson, R.-.W.-. L. Kent Needham, Ray Scadden; and R.-. W.-. Dennis Johnson. Kathryn Johnson, Associate Grand Conductress, was the Grand Chapter representative on the KMH Board of Directors and R.-.W..Tracy Bloom, Grand Junior Warden, was the Grand Lodge representative on the Board for 2008. On Nov. 21, 2008, Most Worshipful Thomas C. Raum Jr., announced his retirement from the Kansas Masonic Home Board of Directors. Judge Raum has given 42 years of dedicated service to the Kansas Masonic Home, serving as secretary/treasurer. His official retirement was Dec. 31, 2008. During his tenure, Kansas Masonic Home's Independent Living Community was dedicated, and in 1996 named the Thomas C. Raum Jr. Masonic Towers in his honor. He gave selflessly for 42 years to the success of the Kansas Masonic Home and should be an inspiration to all the Masons of Kansas. The Board of Trustees meet twice a year and the members in 2008 were: Mel Graves, Chairman; Fred Miller, Vice Chairman; Elaine Jung, Secretary/Treasurer; Nola Vice, Joyce Book, Claude Carpenter, Shirley Davis, Eunice & Dee Duttweiler, John Golden, Carol & Buzz Hamblin, Carl McFadden, Grace Miller, Michael R. Milleson, Carveth Neer, Bill Sellen, Wayne L. White, Suzie Cawthorn, Maxine Holman, Rovilla Kerns, Terry Kerstine, Melvin Luttrell, Robert & Trudy Riddle, John Schultz, Merle Talbott, Fred Trombley & Elinor Whaley. The following was the organizational structure of the Kansas Masonic Home for 2008: Shawn Sullivan, Executive Director; Carolyn Haefele, Executive Assistant; Matthew Bogner, Administrator of the Pavilion; Stacey Trunecek, Director of the Towers and Manor; Charley Lewis, Director of Marketing: Tim Nikkei, Director of Finance; David Shuman, Director of Building Services; Connie atanek. Director of Dining Services; and Robert Roswurm, Director of Development. Community Highlights A new marketing plan was implemented in October that is aimed to better tell the Kansas Masonic Home story and highlight the services and amenities provided. In conjunction with the marketing plan, a new website at http://www.ksmasonic.ora was rolled out in February. In January, KMH began sending our monthly newsletters to every lodge in the state. We hope that this has been a helpful communication and keeps Masons across the state appraised of the programs and services KMH offers and of new projects. Please let us know if your lodge or district is interested in having us present an informational program about our community. Thirty KMH supervisors completed a thirty hour certificate In supervision through Wichita State University's Center for Management Development. The program included 10 three hour modules hosted on-site and has been a great learning experience for staff. A number of capital projects have been completed during the last year. Fifteen apartments in the independent living Towers were renovated and feature new appliances, countertops, carpet, lighting, paint, and storage. A major roofing project over a central service area was also replaced. In addition the wellness center and therapy room renovations, several smaller projects were also completed in 2008. Several surveys administered by governmental and third party organizations were completed with success in 2008. A new state survey inspection process named the quality improvement survey (QIS) came to the Medical Pavilion in September with positive results. Morrison Senior Dining completed a dining services satisfaction survey and the results were terrific. We are proud of quality of food and service we provide to our residents and

to those we cater to. Finally, a resident and family satisfaction survey was administered in December by a third party organization we contracted with. We are still analyzing the results and expect the survey to help identify the areas we need to make improvements on in the next year. KMH hosted a volunteer appreciation luncheon for our volunteers in June 2008. 56 of KMH's volunteers were recognized for their many hours of service with a certificate, gift, and a luncheon. For the year of 2008 there were 5,118 volunteer hours recorded at the Kansas Masonic Home. The Kansas Masonic Home Board of Trustees hosted the third annual charity golf tournament in August. Despite an unseasonably cool and rainy day, there was a great turnout for the event and we are grateful for the many volunteers that made the day a success. The next golf tournament will be held on August 11, 2009. The Future of Kansas Masonic Home The elders of today and the unheralded number in the generations to come have heightened expectations and the way in which we currently provide sen/ices will not be successful in the future. In order to successfully maneuver the waves of change, the board of directors, board of trustees, staff, residents, family members, and friends of Kansas Masonic Home participated in an exciting and groundbreaking strategic planning week from January 12 16, 2008. The following resolution statement was passed by all stakeholders present during the closing session of the strategic planning week: "We, ttie representative stakeholders of Kansas Masonic Home, solemnly publish and declare that this community shall serve as each resident's true home and sanctuary, committed to active living and wellness, individuality and choice, freedom and independence. It is in this new and vibrant community where lives are deeply enriched, spontaneity is encouraged and lasting relationships can flourish. Our community will be driven by our beliefs and values, constantly growing and learning and with profound conviction, ushering in the honor all elders deserve. In support of this strategic plan, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence and pulling from our rich and reaching heritage, we consanguineously vow to actualize the envisioned goals contained in this plan." We are grounded in the mission that has served us so well the last 112 years and look forward to developing, implementing and communicating our new vision and strategic plan to better serve the Masons and Eastern Star of Kansas. Thank you all for you continued support of Kansas Masonic Home. T. Michael Fegan, PGM Board of Directors President Kansas Masonic Home
Shawn Sullivan Executive Director Kansas Masonic Home
M.-. W.-. Grand Master Sterling P. Hornbuckle III made a presentation of $40,000 to Robert Roswurm, Director of Development for the Kansas Masonic Home. M.-.W.-. David Brown, Grand Master of Prince Hall Grand Lodge F&AM of Kansas came foro/ard to bring greetings. He spoke on how wonderful it was for Brothers to dwell together in unity. Kansas Masons should be proud of themselves as they are among a small group of states around the country that have dual membership. He thanked M.-.W.-. Sterling and the Masons of Kansas for the hospitality and friendship given to him. He invited everyone to the Prince Hall Grand Lodge session held June 4'' and 5*. Everyone is welcome to attend. M.-.W.-. Sterling presented M.-.W.-. Brown witfi an honorary Past Grand Master membership to the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas.

The Grand IVIaster of Colorado, M.-.W.-. Brian Cotter, was invited to bring greetings to Kansas from the great state of Colorado. He talked about the things that Masons do best, be community stewards. Society needs those basics. Everyone has the "gavel of authority" to act like and represent Masonry in the way we are taught at the altar. It is everyone's responsibility. He then invited everyone to Colorado on December lO"" to celebrate the 150" anniversary of the 1=' Entered Apprentice Degree in the territory of Colorado. The first lodge under dispensation in Colorado was chartered by the Grand Lodge of Kansas. He thanked everyone for the hospitality shown to him. M.-.W.-. Steriing then presented M.-.W.-. Brian with an honorary Past Grand Master membership in the M.-.W.-.Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas. The Grand Secretary, Robert Pfuetze, explained who was eligible to participate in the vote for advancement of Grand Lodge Officers and M .-.W.-. Steriing asked that District Deputy Grand Masters and Area Deputy Grand Masters present come forward to assist with handing out the ballots. They later collected and counted them. PERPETUAL LIFE MEMBERSHIP PLAN (from the Advanced Report) Most Worshipful Grand Master: The Executive Council of the Perpetual Life Membership Plan met on January 29, 2009 for the purpose of conducting the Annual meeting for the plan year ending September 30, 2008. The Perpetual Life Membership Plan ended the year with an increase in membership of 337. 275 of the new members were regular members and 62 were memorials. Total membership is 2526 consisting of 2060 regular members and 466 memorials members. A preliminary figure of the assets of the plan shows an increase of $ 81,764 after the payout of $ 96,125 to Grand Lodge. Total assets at year end were $ 2,032,413. The Executive Council, by previous mail vote, voted a 7% return to member Lodges. A total of $59,317 will be distributed to the Lodges, $36,365 per capita tax and $4,320 office expense will be issued to Grand Lodge for a total of $100,002. The Executive Council voted to approve this payment. Other business included accepting the resignation of R..W.-. Victor J. Olson from the Executive Council and Secretary of the Executive Council. W.-. Harold Lister was elected to fill the vacancy of R.-.W.-. Victor J. Olson The following slate of officers were elected for 2009: Mervin Buchenau, Chairman; Harold Lister, Secretary. All other Executive Council members were retained for the year. This was a very good year as far as the increase in membership, but the return on investments, unfortunately, followed the national trend. The Council urges all Brothers to use the Perpetual Life Membership Plan as a positive way to continue to support their Lodge. The Memorial Memberships are an excellent way to continue the remembrance of a Brother. The Executive Committee thanks the Craft for their continued support. Respectfully Submitted, Mervin "Butch" Buchenau, Chairman Robert L. Tomlinson, Jr. Gr. Treasurer Robert B. Pfuetze, Gr. Secretary
Harold Lister, Secretary H. Max Bennett, Member Douglas Dutton, Member
It was moved and seconded that the report be accepted. The motion carried. R.-.W.-.Robert Pfuetze, Grand Secretary, stated that the proposed 2009/2010 budget is developed in conjunction w/ith the Council of Administration, and the Grand Secretary based on what they anticipate the income to be, the membership to be and what the expenses are expected. He moved for the adoption of the report. It was voted on and accepted as proposed.

Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
THE REPORT OF THE GRAND SECRETARY The life of the Grand Secretary seems to remain as exciting and interesting as the day I arrived in this office. Many things change, but others remain the same. The office faces new challenges every day. I hope the changes are positive and in the best interest of the Craft, for it is my belief that this office exists to be of sen/ice to the 26,000 members of this great fraternity, the Local Lodges, and the Grand Lodge Officers. Grand Lodge and Local Lodge Database Our database information continues to improve in accuracy. This is with the help of the Lodge Secretaries who continue to send updated information through our database exchange system. This has made reporting easier and more accurate for those who use the Local Lodge database available from Grand Lodge. I believe any Secretary who uses our database will tell you that reporting is much easier than it used to be, and the records are also more accurate. With the introduction of Microsoft's Windows Vista operating system, we have encountered a problem with our database, in that many of the reports will not print. I haven't had time to resolve the issue, but I hope to get it resolved this year. I am pleased to report that I have been doing most of the programming changes in both the Grand Lodge and Local Lodge databases myself, and as a result. Grand Lodge has saved about $5,000 per year in database maintenance contract fees. Secretary's Seminars We held four Secretary's Seminars this year. All of them were held at the Grand Lodge office building in Topeka. We had an average attendance of 10 at each meeting. Needless to say, most of the time I was "preaching to the choir". Those who attended were for the most part the best Secretaries in Kansas, and those who did not attend were the ones who most needed to be there. Those who did attend were very complimentary, and said they enjoyed the meeting very much and really did learn some new things as well. We also tried something new this year. We held a Beginning Secretary's Seminar, which was exclusively for beginning Secretaries, and was taught mostly by my Assistant Grand Secretary, Joey Stiles. We also held an Annual Report Clinic, where we assisted Secretaries in completing their annual reports on time. Shortly after the Annual Communication, I will announce the schedule of Secretary's Seminars for the coming year. I hope those Secretaries who have never attended one of my seminars will make an honest effort to attend one this year. An Invitation To The Craft If you are in Topeka at any time, please do not hesitate to stop and visit. We are always glad to see visiting Brothers, and if I am in the office, I am always willing to give "guided tours" of the facility. If you know in advance that you will be visiting, call and I will be sure to be available. We have what I have been told is the most beautiful building on Capitol Square, other than the Statehouse itself. Every Mason should see, and be proud of, our Grand Lodge building. Timely Reporting The failure of many Secretaries to make timely reports adds an extra burden to the office staff. We cannot provide current information in our reports if the Lodges do not report to us. Reporting remains one of our biggest problems. We actually receive the required monthly activity reports from less than half of the Lodges in Kansas. I have never believed you should have to send a report saying "no activity", but when there has been activity, then you should send a report. As I write this report, there are still a number Lodges that have not returned their Annual Reports, paid their per capita tax, or both. These reports were due on January 10th, and it makes my job of compiling statistics for the advance
97
98
Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
2008-2009
report extremely difficult. I find it hard to understand why most of the Lodges who are the slowest to report are those with small memberships or few changes, but they just can't get them done on time. Virtually any Lodge's annual report (unless it is one of the five largest Lodges) will take less than an hour to complete. Appreciation I would like to thank my Grand Lodge office personnel for their excellent work and cooperation again this year. Jan, Nancy, and Chuck, you are all more appreciated than you know. It is truly wonderful to have a cooperative and hard-working staff, and you just seem to get better each year! I would be remiss if I didn't also thank my Assistant Grand Secretary, Joey Stiles, for all he does in the office. He helps with many of the office jobs, answers the phone, and has devised many interesting research projects. I again have had the pleasure of working with a fine group of men in our Council of Administration. They have had the best interest of our fraternity in their hearts and minds at all times. No matter whether or not you agree with all of their decisions, I can assure you those decisions were always made with the Craft in mind. Finances As with most of your personal investments, Grand Lodge has had a difficult year. We have done better than the National averages, however. If there is one bit of good news, we do not rely on our investment income to pad our budget. That means that even though our reserves are down, we have been able to continue operations as usual. Our declining membership is currently at about 5% per year, and the average age of our members would indicate that this rate of decline will escalate sharply over the next ten years. That is why we must realistically look at a per-capita increase again in the near future. No one likes to have higher dues, but your Masonic Lodge dues, compared to practically anything else you pay for, makes them the greatest bargain in our lives. What else can you have that is of any value for less than a sixty cents a day? That is the amount of dues in our most expensive Lodge in the state. Our second most expensive Lodge charges forty-one cents a day. All other Lodges charge less than twenty-five cents a day, because that would be $91.25 a year. Until we get dues up to a level where we can afford to make our facilities attractive, and give true Masonic charity to our Brothers and those in need in our communities, we will never be the preeminent institution we once were. All of us need to take a realistic look at what our membership in this fraternity is worth to us. Many of our forefathers paid more than a day's wages to belong to a Lodge. Are we not as proud of our fraternity as they were? If we do not increase our per-capita tax and our dues, we will have nothing to leave to our own children and grandchildren. The time has come to invest in our future so that we may make and keep our fraternity the greatest in the world.
As part of this report, the Grand Secretary is required to give an estimate of income and expense for the coming year. For that I would refer you to the 2009-2010 budget found elsewhere in these Advance Reports. That budget has been developed by the Council of Administration with my advice as to the estimated income and expenses. Fraternally submitted, Robert B. Pfuetze, Grand Secretary

Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
M.-.W.-. Jack Butler brought greetings from the great state of Iowa. He said that as he travels around the state of Iowa visiting Lodges he tells everyone that Masonry is the premier men's fraternal organizations in the country. The principles of Masonry give us the one of the best sets of guidelines with which to live our lives. He also said it was the obligation of the older members to teach new tricks to the young members, as in an old dog teaching a young dog the old tricks. The Mentoring Program is a wonderful way to do just that. M.-.W.-. Sterling P. Hornbuckle III then presented M.-.W.-. Butler with his honorary membership to the M.. W.. Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas. As he thanked M.-. W.-. Sterling for the honorary membership he told him that it has been discovered that Masons live longer than the average population and that Iowa took that and made a bumper sticker that reads "Iowa Masons do it Longer, Masonry is a way of Life". He then presented one of those bumper stickers to M .-.W.-. Sterling, the first person in Kansas to have one.
Loyd Davis, M.-.W.-. Grand Master from Utah, was invited to bring greetings. He said he has several connections to Kansas, one of them being that Kansas gave the Charter to his lodge, Mt. Moriah #2. He enjoys his friendships with Kansas Masons and that Kansas Masons are doing a great job and to keep it up. He was then presented with his honorary membership in the M.. W.-.Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas.
M.-.W.-. Russ Reno, Grand Master of Nebraska came forward to bring greetings. He also talked of the special relationships he has made with the Masons of Kansas and thanked everyone for the hospitality extended to them. He said he admired the money that has been raised for Cancer Research. That over the years Nebraska has "borrowed" many of the programs of Kansas, Band Camp, the Leadership Training Program, and made it theirs. He talked on the programs Nebraska has planned for his year as Grand Master. He said their main problem in Nebraska is not a lack of membership but a lack of activities. Active Lodges see an increase in membership. He has assigned an activity for each month to get the Lodges active. He concluded by saying that at the end of your life as others take stock in your life, you will not be honored by the possessions you have, but honored by having lived your life by the principles of the Masonic fraternity. M.-. W.-. Reno was presented an honorary membership to the M .-.W.-.Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas.
The Grand Master of Missouri, M.. W.-. Rocky Weaver, brought greetings from the 50,000 Missouri Masons. He said his program this year is Brothers Helping Others - a way to recognize how Masons do what should be done. Another program they have is the CHIPs Program, and they have identified nearly 75,000 children since 2004. He also said that in order for Masonry to grow, the younger brethren must be trusted that they love and respect the fraternity, and let them build Masonry to fit now and this time. M.-.W.-. Weaver was made an honorary member of the M.-.W..Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas. R.-. W.-. Grand Secretary Pfuetze gave the report from the tellers. There were 335 ballots cast. For Grand Master, who will serve one year as Deputy Grand Master, there were 335 ballots for Kent Needham, with 3 scattered. For the Grand Senior Warden, Tracy Bloom, there were 325 ballots cast and one scattered. For Grand Junior Warden, Don Newman, there were 335 ballots and one scattered. For Grand Treasurer, Robert Tomlinson, 335 ballots with 3 scattered. For Grand Secretary, Robert Pfuetze 309 ballots and 26 for Past Grand Master Larry Mersberg. All Grand Lodge officers accepted their election.

R.-.W.-. Grand Senior Warden, Kent Needhann, reported on Strategic Planning. In March 2007, M.-.W.-. Jimmie Grassi had the vision and wisdom to appoint a Strategic Planning committee with the purpose of developing a process to assist the Grand Lodge of Kansas to establish a long range plan that will mfeet the needs of Ancient Craft Masonry in Kansas for years to come. In 2007 and 2008 the committee accomplished the development of a process, chose a facilitator, reviewed the strategic plans of several jurisdictions, reviewed the survey responses from neighboring jurisdictions, developed a survey of our own, conducted that survey and established a time frame for completing their tasks. To date the committee is actively woriting to finalize their charge. They are close to having a final product to present for approval. There will be goals and strategies to accomplish those goals. When those challenges and goals have been accomplished the task force will be disbanded with the propercongratulatory sendoff of well done good and faithful servant. It was moved and seconded that the following Strategic Planning Committee report be accepted, and the motion earned. Most Worshipful Grand Master, Distinguished East, Right Worshipful Brothers, Worshipful Brothers and Brothers all. In March 2007, M.-.W.-. Jimmie L. Grassi, Sr. had the vision and wisdom to appoint a strategic planning committee with the expressed purpose of developing a process to assist the Grand Lodge of Kansas in establishing a long range plan that is aligned, consistent and will meet the needs of ancient craft Masonry in Kansas for the next several years. The following were chosen to serve on the committee: M.-.W.-. Allan L. Huriburt, W.-. C. Mari< Monnier, W.-. R. Scott Kailer, W.-. Steven E. Crane and R.-.W.-. Kent Needham. This Committee Irishes to publically thank M.-.W.-. Jimmie Grassi for his wisdom and vision and for the opportunity that he and M.-.W.-. Steriing has given to the committee to serve the Craft in this visionary endeavor. If you will recall from my report a year ago, through several communications, the committee met and accomplished the following in 2007-2008: > Developed a process • Chose a Facilitator • Reviewed the Strategic Plans from several Jurisdictions • Reviewed the survey responses from a neighboring Jurisdiction • Developed a survey • Conducted the survey • Established a Time Frame to complete our task. In 2008 and 2009 to date, the committee continues to actively wori< to finalize our charge. With the assistance and leadership of our facilitator, W.-. Don Blake, the assistance of the Grand Lodge office including R..W.. Robert Pfuetze and R..W.. Joey Stiles, the input, support and assistance of the Council of Administration and its advisors, the committee has worthed hard this year to accomplish the follov^ng: • • •
Drill down and fully analyze the results of the survey responses presented to Kansas Masons, Further review and analyze the results of the survey responses from our neighboring jurisdiction, Review all the information developed by our investigative process to date.
The Committee and Council of Administration, in a joint phone conference, determined that our committee had accomplished all we could accomplish in the information gathering process. It was now time to put it all together and worit toward a final pnsduct. As a result.

a Strategic planning work session was scheduled and held on February 28, 2009 at the Kansas Masonic Home training room. The following were invited to participate: • • • • • •
Council of Administration Grand Treasurer Grand Secretary Grand Senior Deacon Grand Senior Deacon designate Strategic Planning Committee.
Through a pre-work assignment sent to all potential participants, the ideas, perspectives, issues, concerns, thoughts and recommendations of our very diverse group that had been developed by our research, discussions during our meetings, discussion with other members of our fraternity in small groups or at stated meetings of our Craft were set to paper. We started early and worked hard. At this point, we are very close to having a final product ready to be presented for approval. Once a final product has been generated and approved, there will be a Vision Statement, a Mission Statement and several other items but more particularly, there will be several goals and strategies to accomplish those goals. Some of these goals and/or strategies will be able to be accomplished within a year. Others may take up to 5 years to be fully implemented and/or addressed. It would be our vision that this plan, if approved, be fully communicated to the Craft through as many avenues as possible so that you may understand and take ownership of the plan. After all, it was the input from the Craft, all of you, that is at the foundation of this strategic plan. If the Craft understands and embraces this plan, the Grand Lodge should be held accountable to addressing the issues and performing to the expectations of the Craft. Additionally, it is our hope that your elected grand line officers take ownership of the plan and the process. Should they fully do so, we envision each elected officer would adopt a goal or strategy that would correspond with their approximate tenure in their progression and that they would in turn, establish specific tasks forces, made up of brothers from across the state, whose charge will be to address and complete the task assigned to them. When their challenge has been met, that task force would disband with the proper congratulatory send off of "well done, good and faithful servant". We expect this strategic plan to be a living document that would be reworked, updated and changed if the occasion should call for it. At some point, another strategic planning committee should be assembled to re-evaluate and update the entire plan. M..W.. Grand Master, we, the strategic planning committee, are excited about the progress that has been made toward our goal and are very encouraged by the opportunities we envision coming from this effort. With your permission, the committee will continue to move the process forward. All communications have been cordial and harmony prevailed at all times as the members of the committee labored together in unity for the betterment of Freemasonry in Kansas.

The report of the Jurisprudence Committee was given by M.-.W.-. T. Michael Fegan, Past Grand Master. The members of the committee rose to be recognized and thanks was given to them for the work they have done over the past year. Their report was submitted and accepted as given. Furthermore, the rulings, edicts and orders of the M.-.W.-. Grand Master, Sterling P. Hornbuckle III ,as reported in the Advance Proceedings, were Issued with the best interest of the Craft in mind and it was the unanimous opinion of the Jurisprudence Committee that said rulings were within the power and prerogatives of the Grand Master and It was moved that all be approved. The motion passed. The rational for supporting the By-Law change is made by the proposer. The Jurisprudence Committee makes no opinion to the merit or rational of any proposal, only to see that It Is In it's proper form and does not conflict with another By-Law. It was moved and seconded that the report of the Jurisprudence Committee be accepted in its entirety. The motion passed. PROPOSED CONSTITUTION AND BY-LAW CHANGES FOR 2009 Note that wording to be removed has been struck out, these words for example, and any additions are boldfaced and underlined, these words for example. Proposal #1 2-130. Areas, Area Deputy Grand Masters, Masonic Districts and District Deputy Grand Mastersâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;This Grand Jurisdiction shall be divided Into not less than ten areas and forty Masonic Districts, the number and boundaries of which Areas and Districts shall be determined from time to time by the Council of Administration. This Grand Jurisdiction shall be divided into such Areas and Districts, the number and boundaries of which Areas and Districts shall be determined from time to time by the Council of Administration. The Deputy Grand Master shall, as soon as practicable after his Installation, appoint an Area Deputy Grand Master for each such Area and one District Deputy Grand Master for each sucfi District and each of whom shall be a Master or Past Master and resident of his Area or District unless otherwise approved by the Council of Administration. (Amended 1982, 1990 and 1991, 1992, 2009). Rationale: Last amended in 1992, many changes have taken place in our craft In the succeeding 16+ years, not the least of which are two factors: 1) Our craft has grown smaller in number to the present approximately 25,000 from nearly four times that number, and 2) Travel costs have increased so dramatically that many are not able to serve, due to the very significant out-of-pocket expenses that are not reimbursed. While it may seem that Incongruous that fewer Masons may, in fact, mean MORE Area & District Deputies, not fewer^ it Is a fact, and the COA should be able to take into consideration such factors and realign these boundaries In the best Interests of the Craft without being hamstrung by a requirement that no longer has the meaning it once did. Submitted by: RoyT. Sullivan, Jr., DGM L. Kent Needham, GSW Tracy L. Bloom, GJW

Proposal #2
4-212. Work on Several Candidatesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;All portions of the work may be conferred on up to three candidates at the same time without special dispensation of the Grand Master. Provided that no candidate or Brother may receive a degree by merely observing it being performed on an exemplar. Each candidate must receive the degrees in every respect as if he were the only candidate. (Amend-ed 1992, 1995, 2009.) CrossReference: By-Laws, Sec. 3-402. Rationale: We have lost 3 1 % of the members in 2003-2006 who came into Masonry through a oneday class either to non-payment of dues or by dimit. On the other hand, we have only lost 8% of members in the last 2 years from non-payment of dues, and/or by demit without one-day classes. In one lodge alone, they lost 50% of their members that came in through a one-day class, whereas they only lost 9% who came in the traditional way in the last two years. These numbers by themselves are staggering, and although it is understood what the "benefits" could be of a one-day class in getting members, the numbers show that we are not retaining these members and that is not beneficial to continue in this direction. Fraternally Submitted, Chad Allen Brewer Past Master, Mount Zion Lodge #266 This By-Law Proposal Failed.
Proposal #3 3-619. Serving of Alcoholic Beveragesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;The serving or consumption of any beverage having a recognized or indicated alcoholic content at any communication or social function of any Lodge shall be deemed an offense against the Body of Masonry. This does not preclude lodges from renting their facilities, except Lodge rooms, to groups where alcoholic beverages are served, but not sold. (Amended 1002, 2002). Cro33 Reference'. By-Laws, Chapter 1. Repealed 2009. Rationale: This by-law is already broken by certain degrees in other bodies of Masonry, and in certain social functions in the Fraternity. As by-law 1-110 states "Every Mason who is a member of any organization which predicates its membership upon Masonic affiliation, is bound by the same standards of conduct while present at any meeting or function held or sponsored by such organization, as he would be if such meeting or function were held or sponsored by his Lodge". It is time that we either adhere to our own by-laws, or remove this so that we are not breaking our own laws any longer. Fraternally Submitted, Chad Brewer Past Master, Mount Zion Lodge #266 This By-Law Proposal was Tabled.

This By-Law Proposal Passed.
The Grand Secretary, Robert Pfuetze, made it known that there are a number of other reports in the Advance Proceedings. He moved that those reports be approved as printed unless a written objection is placed on the Grand Secretary's desk by 9:00am Saturday. The motion to accept those reports was approved. They are as follows:
CHURCH-LODGE RELATIONS COMMITTEE (from the Advanced Report) To my knowledge, there have been no incidents reported to this committee during the past year, nor have there been any requests for information. We simply say that it is advisable to work with our churches in ways which are profitable to both the lodges and the churches. We do need to be aware that in this postmodern society with its apparent goal to eliminate all references to God and Christianity, it is a factor to be considered very seriously. Arris Johnson, PGM, Chairman

The Council discussed the importance, because of the rising gas prices, the need to make efficient trips. District and area emblem presentations will be encouraged to cut down on miles traveled. The George Washington National Memorial has asked for cooperation with their endeavors to digitize all of the annual proceedings from all Grand Lodges, which would centralize historical and statistical data. The Council was updated several times about progress with the Strategic Planning Committee, the continued success of the Chips program, and the Grand Lodge Publications Committee and their efforts to revitalize the Kansas Mason and the Grand Lodge web site. The Council was asked to address the expression of opinions published in the Kansas Mason. The Council took the following actions: 1) the Council addressed the concern to author of the article, 2) the Grand Master addressed the issue in the following edition of the Kansas Mason, 3) the decision is to appear in the COA recap of the annual report, 4) the COA will appoint an editor for the Kansas Mason. The Kansas Mason and the Grand Lodge web site will be undergoing changes to make both more informative and appealing to everyone and, with the addition of an editor, it should be a smooth transition. Other items received, discussed and acted upon, if not reported elsewhere in the proceedings of the Annual Communication of this Grand Lodge, may be read in the minutes of each meeting of the Council Of Administration, a copy of which is on file in the Grand Lodge Office in Topeka. All meetings of the Council were cordial, and harmony prevailed at all times as the members of the Council labored together in unity and for the betterment of Freemasonry in Kansas.

Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
Near the Grand Lodge of; Stuart M. Cowan, PGM - Hawaii Dragan marinkovic - Serbia Alberto Andre Lasch - Mato Grosso Alabama: At its 186 Annual communication it was reported that lectures for the Entered Apprentice and Master Masons Degrees and digital conriputer presentation are available. Still membership loss is prevalent. Alaska: At its 25* Annual Communication it was reported that they had a loss of 43 members for the year. To try and improve their ritualistic work and government of each Lodge, an Annual Membership training seminar would be held. Alberta: At its 101='Annual Communication a net loss of 82 members was reported. In an effort to address this membership loss, the Grand Lodge recommended the use of open houses; establish Awards of Excellence to individual members and or Lodges. The Grand Master stated that Masonry must adapt to changes in society to entice membership. A failure to do so could lead to the eventual loss of the fraternity. Baja California: A serious split exists in the Grand Lodge of Baja California. Two sets of Grand Lodge officers claim to be legitimate officials of this Grand Lodge. While the Grand Lodge of California is trying to affect a resolution in this situation, it is clear that additional work must be done to resolve this problem. The two sets of Officers must work toward a unification agreement for the good of Freemasonry in Baja California. Until that occurs, it is recommended that restraint in establishing further fraternal relations with this grand Lodge. Bulgaria: Freemasonry continues to function in two Grand Lodges in Bulgaria. The Commission Information For Recognition has recommended that the two Grand Lodges meet for a joint meeting within the next six months to work toward resolution of this problem. If this attempt is unsuccessful, a final course of action may be to recommend suspension of recognition of Bulgarian Freemasonry until a recognition is achieved. Delaware: At its 39* Semi Annual Communication celebrating the 202"° year. The Grand Secretary reported a net loss of membership through September 30, 2007. Georgia: At its 220* Annual Communication it was reported that they had a membership loss of 1,167, and dissolution of one Lodge. Their Lodge membership ranges from 18 for the smallest to 490 for the largest. Illinois: At its 167 Annual Communication it was reported that the net loss in membership for the year was 5,054 and 11 Lodges. To address this problem, the use of internet websites and presentations on membership at various Lodges in the state was implemented as well as several other programs to enable reversing the loss problem. Japan: At its 49* Annual Convocation there was a recommendation to recognize the Prince Hall Lodge of Washington. Maine: At its 187* Communication it was announced that their Grand Lodge is in the process of computerizing their Grand Lodge Database. Their net membership loss was 522. A proposed amendment was introduced to allow one day conferral of all three degrees. The Grand Master issued a decision to allow initiates to use the Koran or any other monotheist volume of literature sacred to his faith as long as the Holy Bible, Square and Compasses are displayed. Michigan: At its 180* Annual Communication a five year plan with the logo "Masons Live Better" was established. The Grand Lodge is also recommending advertising in the media. Continue using All Masonic Degree Days. They raised 210 Master Masons, yet they had a net loss for the year of 1,725.

York Grand Lodge of Mexico: A schism has developed in the York Grand Lodge of Mexico. A group that was separated from the York Grand Lodge, now call themselves the Very Respectful Grand Lodge of the York Rite in Mexico, AF&AM, and practice Masonry in Spanish only. There are indications they have some ties to the unrecognized United Grand Lodge of America. The dissidents had previously been expelled by the York Grand Lodge of Mexico for various infractions. At this point. The York Grand Lodge of Mexico still considered to be the recognized York Grand Lodge in Mexico. Montenegro: The Grand Lodge of Montenegro was legally consecrated on May 12, 2007 fro the three lodges that worked under the auspices of the Regular Grand Lodge Yugoslavia and was chartered by the United Grand Lodges of Germany, The ritual work of the consecration was performed by the United Grand Lodges of Germany, the Grand Lodge of Serbia, the Grand Orient of Italy, and the Grand Lodge of Austria. There are now four Lodges working under this obedience. This Grand Lodge meets the standards for recognition. The Grand Master is Novak Jouovic. Nebraska: At its ISO"" Annual Communication they reported 1042 losses in membership which netted the a total loss of (444). New Jersey: At its 21S"" Annual Convention had an increase in membership of 1,855 this year and they do allow dual membership. A recommendation that the term of office of all elected Grand Officers be increased to two years. Also, it was recommended that off site voting for Past Masters who could not attend Grand Lodge be allowed. Per capita remained at $7.50. New Mexico: At its 129" Annual Communication an annual All the Way in One Day event was established to be held the 3'" weekend of October. A pro-active measure to recognize the Prince Hall Grand Lodge was initiated. Paraguay: A split has developed in the Grand Lodge of Paraguay. A group of dissidents have now proclaimed themselves to be the Grand Lodge Symbolic of Paraguay. After a questionable investigation, the Interamerican Masonic Confederation has declared this group headed by Mendoza Unzain to be legitimate. This was an unusual act since the bylaws of the CMI prohibits the interference in the fraternal affairs of a Grand Lodge. This ruling is being contested by the existing Grand Lodge of Paraguay, but they have not allowed them to see the report of the investigation, or to offer a response. Nemecio Lichi was legally elected to be the Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Paraguay, and the Commission is of the opinion that this Grand Lodge is still the only Grand Lodge in Paraguay that meets the standards for recognition. In 1997 Paraguay was placed on our nonrecognition status and it is hereby recommend that the non-recognition status be revised to full recognition status at their request. Philippines: The Grand Lodge of the Philippines has provided additional clarification on the situation with Freemasonry in that country. Members in seven of the eighteen Lodges in the Cavite District formed Lodges with the same name, but different numbers, and formed what they call the independent Grand Lodge of the Philippine Islands, without a legitimate charter. All these members have been expelled from the Grand Lodge of the Philippines. As stated last year, the Grand Lodge of the Philippines is the only Grand Lodge in that country that meets the standards of recognition. Russia: The legitimate Grand Lodge of Russia continues to operate in the confusion of having a self-proclaimed group operate under the same name. This group, headed by Roman Gorodnitsky, has sent numerous letters to Grand Lodges around the world claiming legitimacy. It is still the opinion of the Commission that the Grand Lodge of Russia with Andrei Bogdanov as the Grand Master is the only Grand Lodge in Russia that meets the standards of recognition. It has been learned that Grand Master Bogdanov has announced himself as a candidate for the Presidency of Russia.

Utah: In order to protect lodge legal records throughout the jurisdiction, a central file was established to allow lodges to store those records at the Grand Lodge.
Other Information: 1. The Grand Lodge of the Czech Republic has filed a protest with the United Grand Lodges of Germany for a claimed invasion of their territory. During January of this year, a Lodge in Passau, Germany, initiated three candidates from Slovakia. After the Grand Lodge of the Czech Republic lodged their protest, the United Grand Lodges of Germany stated they will Initiate another class of candidates from Slovakia in February. The Grand Lodge of the Czech Republic is claiming Slovakia as their territory since they announced they planned to constitute the District Grand Lodge of Slovakia, which Is scheduled for March 8, 2008. Since this District Grand Lodge has yet been formed, and since Slovakia Is an independent country, The United Grand Lodges of Germany believe it to be open territory at the present time. This is an issue that must be resolved between these two Grand Lodges, and it is hoped that they will come to an agreement on territorial jurisdiction as practiced by all regular Grand Lodges. 2. Lodges and Grand Lodges continue to spring up around the world from unrecognized sources. A number of Lodges have been chartered in this country from foreign Grand Lodges of this nature. A new supreme council whose origin is unknown, has also been established in America, called the Supreme Council of North America, with bodies located in Virginia, North Carolina and Illinois. We need to be very diligent in examining dues cards when accepting visitors to your Lodge and in determining the legitimacy of a Lodge you may wish to visit.
Recommendations: In conclusion, we recommend the extending of fraternal recognition to and the exchange of fraternal representatives with the following:
Grand Lodge Montenegro Grand Lodge of Paraguay Grand Lodge of the Philippines
I now move the adoption and acceptance of this report as a whole. Fraternally, Robert L. Tomlinson, Jr., PGM, Chairman Joesphe G. Stiles

LIBRARY COMMITTEE REPORT To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge A.F. &A.M. of Kansas: The opportunity to serve on this committee for the Grand Lodge and to work with the Staff of the Grand Lodge, who assisted in many ways throughout the year, has been a rewarding experience. Also, we have been assisted by Mrs. Robert H. Arnold, (Lou) this year and we are truly indebted to her for her dedication. Also, appreciation is extended to our Assistant Grand Secretary, R.-. W.-. Josephe G. Stiles, for his valuable assistance to this committee. The following report is submitted for your consideration: We continue to follow the instructions of our Grand Master to catalog and remove as much duplication of books, moving them to the archives in the basement. It is not an easy task, but is one accepted by your committee with great expectations. We are still in search of a way to find financial means, whereby we will be able to start the process of restoring our many books to a condition that will make them useable. We must be aware and expect that a project of restoration of our aged books will require expenditures yearly to preserve the heritage that is now our responsibility to preserve for generations to come. All are invited to visit our library and to discover the wealth of knowledge that awaits those who are interested to learn of our historical antiquity - a true treasure-trove for those who research for the hidden and ambiguous mysteries of Freemasonry. Will you partake? Respectfully submitted, Robert L. Tomlinson, Jr., PGM; W.-. Wayne H. Rolf W.-. Aaron M. Shoemaker
MASONIC EDUCATION COMMITTEE To the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas: Greetings from the Masonic Education committee. During this last year, the Masonic Education Committee and the Kansas Masonic University Committee joined to form one committee, which is rightfully called the Masonic Education Committee. Hopefully this change allows us to streamline Masonic education in Kansas. Also, since I moved from Topeka to Atchison, we moved the KMU materials to my home. So far, this arrangement has worked out quite nicely for the Grand Lodge and me. Once again, this year the Masons of Kansas proved that they want to further their base of Masonic knowledge by supporting our Kansas Masonic University We sold 115 men's courses in 2008, which is more than double the number we sold in 2007. I credit most of the increase in sales to the fact that the Eureka Challenge questions all came from the KMU courses this year. I want to thank M.-. W.-. Lawrence "Larry" Mersberg for publicizing the KMU courses through the Eureka Challenge program. We continue to supply the annual warden's school with courses for the ladies. Plus, KMU Courses are still sent free of charge to Brother Masons who are serving our country overseas. We are proud to be able to remind our troops that their brothers support their efforts. Further, while away from home and more than likely absent from a lodge setting, they can study different areas of our fraternity A highlight of this past year was attending the 59"" Annual Midwest Conference on Masonic Education in Omaha, NE, over the weekend of April 25-27. The conference has made
2008-2009
Annual Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Kansas
several changes to its itinerary, and it was truly a magnificent experience. Kansas was well represented at the conference. If you want to attend a meeting dedicated to learning more about the past, present, and future of our Craft, then plan to attend the 60* Annual Midwest Conference on Masonic Education on April 24-26 in Springfield, IL. At the 2009 Grand Lodge session, we will begin offering three new courses. Each course is aimed at examining more closely Masonic symbolism and philosophy through reading and writing. There is a course for each of the symbolic degrees (Entered Apprentice, Fellow Craft, and Master Mason). We are using a Grand Lodge of Kansas publication entitled An Introduction to Freemasonry along with a booklet written by Bro. James Tresner entitled Further Light for the multiple-choice sections of the courses. Plus, students are required to do a book review assignment and an essay for each course. I am excited to bring this kind of a study to the Craft. Fraternally Submitted, R.-.W.-. K. Tyler Curtis, Chairman
MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Mason of Kansas: 2008 has been a productive year for the Membership Committee. The Friends Of Masons presentations continue to be a successful means of explaining our Fraternity to the uninitiated. We urge each of you to study the Annual Report Summary by Lodge at the back of the Advance Report and then in the Annual Proceedings, when they are published. The numbers for each Lodge and for our Grand Lodge are self-explanatory. We have no control over the number of our Brothers that are called to that Grand Lodge Above, but we can work to reduce the number of suspensions for non-payment of dues, and we can increase the number of men that we Initiate into our Lodge. Membership can be broken down into 3 main areas - RECRUITMENT, RETENTION AND RESTORATION. RETENTION: We have brought in new good members. We need to keep them interested in the Fraternity - make them feel a part of our Lodge; be on committees, start learning the ritual, be a part of the Masonic family. The MENTORING program instituted by our Grand Master this year is a great start in retention. Also, how many Entered Apprentices and Fellow Crafts do we have who have not finished their Degrees? Visit with these Brothers and see what needs to be done to encourage them to finish their degrees. Have programs for the entire family Retention is a means of maintaining the current membership. RESTORATION: We lose a large number of our Brothers each year because of Suspension for Non-Payment of dues. Are we doing all we can to reduce this number? The Master and Secretary need to work with their Lodge Membership Committee and determine who has not paid their dues and why. There are many reasons, and many of these can be resolved by visiting with these Brothers. Restoration is a way to increase Membership by bringing good Brothers back into the Fraternity. RECRUITMENT : It starts at the individual level. You don't join big. Recruitment cannot come from Topeka, Salina, Abilene or any other location in our Grand Jurisdiction. It has to start with you, the individual Mason. New Brothers are vital to the future of Freemasonry.

There are many tools available to increase membership. It is a proven fact that the Friends of Masons Night is one of the best tools that we have. In 2008 the Membership Committee presented 30 programs. Thiis program can only work with a strong dedication from each Lodge to successful plan a Friends of Masons Night. 30 Kansas Lodges requested a Friends of Mason presentation, with 22 Lodges returning a report. We would like to remind the Lodges that it is the responsibility of the Lodge to submit a written application to the Membership Committee and then complete the Friends of Masons Night report. The Membership Committee Is composed of dedicated Brothers who continue to offer their services without compensation for time or mileage. We continue to encourage all Lodges and other Masonic groups to call upon us to assist in presenting positive programs about the benefits of becoming a member of the Greatest Fraternity in the World. The Membership Committee would like to thank R.-.W.-. Robert "Bob" Pfuetze and the Grand Lodge Staff - Jan Nelson and Nancy Johnston - for their assistance this past year. They are a tremendous resource for the Grand Lodge of Kansas. M .-.W.-. Lawrence Mersberg, PGM, and R.-.W.-. Butch Buchenau have been Co-Chairmen of the Membership Committee for several years. They feel that it is time for new leadership for this committee to bring in new ideas and programs. R.-.W.-. Roy Sullivan will appoint R.-.W.-. David Kinzie as Chairman for the ensuing year. We urge all lodges to continue with this worthwhile program. It is a valuable tool to increase the visibility of our Fraternity. Each member of this committee wishes to thank M.. W.-. Sterling P. Hornbuckle III and the Brethren of this great Fraternity for the opportunity to serve the Grand Lodge of Kansas. Respectfully submitted, M.-.W.-. Lawrence J. Mersberg, PGM and R.-.W.-. Mervin E. "Butch" Buchenau Membership Committee Co-Chairmen

RITUALISTIC COMMITTEE The Committee on Ritualistic Work was deeply saddened by the death of two of our Grand Lecturers during the 2008 year, Clarence W. Sills and Joseph M. Ballew. Both of these brothers were Emeritus Grand Lecturers and will be missed by all Kansas Masons who knew them. I was unable to attend the orientation session for the DDGMs and ADGMs in Salina, but our committee was ably represented by our committee secretary R.. W.-. Leiand G. Salts. The annual meeting of the Committee was held in Wichita at the Bestor G Brown Lodge on August 1 " with all of the committee members present, including Ron Detweiler, who was appointed to the committee by our Grand Master to fill the vacancy created by the death of Terry Carter last year. The assignments for the district meetings were made, to be presented to the lecturers the following day. This was the third year for allowing schools to be scheduled in the fall rather than in January and February only. Several of the districts have taken advantage of that and it seems to be working well in most cases. It does help to ease up the problem of having enough lecturers to cover all of the schools requested for the January/February time period. Again this year several of the districts have indicated a desire to join with another district for the district meeting. All of these requests were accommodated; however, the attendance at a combined school is just about what each district probably would have had at a separate school. This does not seem to be the solution. The Ritualistic meeting for the Grand Lecturers, Assistants, and interested ritualists was held on August 2nd at Bestor G Brown Lodge in Wichita, with nearly all of the Grand Lecturers in attendance. Assignments of Districts were handed out and a review of the work to be exemplified at the district meetings was conducted. Five district meetings were scheduled in Oct. and Nov. Thirty district meetings were scheduled in January and February. With some of the districts joining together for their meeting, all 40 districts have had meetings scheduled. I want to take this opportunity to thank all of the Grand Lecturers and Assistants who give their time and talent to the important job of preserving our ritual. I also want to thank Bestor G. Brown Lodge for the use of their facility for our meeting on Friday and Saturday. Most importantly, I want to thank Leiand Salts, the secretary of the committee, for his work on keeping us all in line and informed. He has had an exceptionally hard job with the redistricting that was done this year, but he has managed to take it all in stride. His assistance is greatly appreciated Fraternally and respectfully submitted, David F. Snyder, Chairman of the Committee on Ritualistic Work. TRIALS AND PUNISHMENT COMMITTEE REPORT To the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge A.F. and A.M. of Kansas. We have had NO cases so far this year, and that means Masons are finally acting like Masons should. As of Christmas time 2008 we have had nothing to do and that is the way it should be. The committee is pleased to be of service to our Grand Master and to our Grand Lodge. Don E. Robinett, PGM, Chairman Glenn E. Kohr, PGM Vernon Butt

Sterling came to the podium and presented him with his gavel, which Sterling has used during this session. He said he was honored to have M.-.W.-. Sterling use his gavel.

INSTALLATION OF 2009-2010 GRAND LODGE OFFICERS
The installation of the 2009 - 2010 Grand Lodge Officers was conducted by Past Grand Master M.-.W.-. Larry Mersberg. All incoming Grand Lodge officers were brought to the Altar, instructed in the duties of their office, the importance of their responsibilities and obligations. They took the oath and were escorted to their proper station. The several officers of the Grand Lodge Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas were declared duly installed in Ample Form for the ensuing year. The Proclamation was made. M.-.W.-. Roy T. Sullivan, Jr., instructed the Grand Senior Deacon to present the Area Deputy Grand Masters and District Deputy Grand Masters for installation and commission west of the Altar. While they were being brought forward, M.-.W.-. Roy announced that Kansas has ten Area Deputy Grand Masters and 40 District Deputy Grand Masters stationed geographically throughout the state, and they represent the eyes and ears of the Grand Master and Grand Lodge. They were then commissioned and invested with the title of Right Worshipful, and instructed to keep the best interest of the Kansas Masonry foremost in their hearts. M.-.W.-. Roy T. Sullivan, Jr. requested that M .-.W.-. Sterling R Hornbuckle III, Past Grand Master, be brought to the Grand East. M.-.W.-. Roy then presented M.-.W.-. Sterling with his Past Grand Master's Jewel to wear with great pride. The Jewels are "recycled" in Kansas and this one was first given out in 1926, to M.-.W.-. John W. Neilson. M.-.W.-. Sterling had a lesson he wanted to leave with everyone, it came from the Past Grand Master of Colorado: Every Mason should do four things: Drink, Swear, Steal, and Lie. Drink from the loving cup of kindness. Swear that you will be a better person today than you were yesterday Steal a little time from your busy schedule to help someone else less fortunate. And when you lie down at night, thank that Lord above for those that protect your freedoms and that you live in the United States where you can enjoy those freedoms. It was announced that the 2010 Annual Communication of the M.-.W.-. Grand Lodge Ancient Free and Accepted N/lasons of Kansas will be held in Topeka, Kansas, March 19"^ and 20"" at the Ramada Inn. Other announcements were made. Worshipful Bill Baker gave the benediction. With that, the M.-.W.-.Grand Master, Roy T. Sullivan, Jr., declared the 154* Annual Communication and Installation of Officers of the M.-. W.-. Grand Lodge Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Kansas adjourned.
