BIOGRAPHICAL P. VINCENT KINKEAD Grand Master 1986-1987 At the close of the 165th Annual Communication of the Grand Lodge of Missouri September 30, 1986, P. Vincent Kinkead of Rt. 2, Farmington, was installed as Most Worshipful Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Missouri for 1986-87. MoW Bro. P. Vincent Kinkead was born October 20, 1921, at Libertyville, Missouri, the son of the late Gladden N. and Frances Ashburn Kinkead.

The three sons are all Masons, Willard being Past Master of Hickory Hill Lodge No. 211 at Eugene; David is Worshipful Master of St. Francois Lodge; and Nicholas is State Deputy Master Councilor of DeMolay.

He is also a certified lay speaker in the denomination. He also has an interest in history and has served as President of the St. Francois County Historical Society. Brother Kinkead served as District Deputy Grand Master of the 48th District from 1973-78, being appointed Senior Grand Marshal of the Grand Lodge in the latter year. He is a Past High Priest of Uel-Midian Chapter No. 129, and served as Grand High Priest of Missouri in 1980-81. He has been illustrious Master of Bonne 'Thrre Council No. 43, Cryptic Masons, and is a Past Commander of DeSoto Commandery. He has been a member and officer of Missouri Priory No. 17, Knights of the York Cross of Honour.

1987

Address of the Grand Master To the Grand Lodge of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons of the State of Missouri: My BRETHREN AND MANY FRIENDS: It is an honor and a privilege as well as a pleasure for me to extend to you a warm welcome to the one hundred sixtysixth annual communication of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Missouri. Th our visitors from other Grand Jurisdictions we extend a special welcome and hope that each of you may glean some useful information from our communication that will prove helpful in the future. Many of you, attending as members of this Grand Lodge, are also members of other Masonic Bodies, who share the Jurisdiction of Missouri. A close and active partnership has continued between the Grand Lodge and the many related organizations. We take pride in welcoming the leaders of these fine concordant Masonic Bodies. I have reserved, until last, my welcome to the members of this Grand Lodge, it is a very private and personal welcome. I accepted the office of Grand Master with humility and pride, and started the year with a purpose to lead a great team of officers and committee members. Much has been accomplished, more is to be done. I am grateful for the honor and trust you reposed in me. So, to you, the members of this Grand Lodge I welcome you with friendship and Brotherly love. This is your session, what we do here is yours to decide. May God grant us wisdom as we deliberate on the business of this annual communication. GRAND LODGE OFFICERS The officers of your Grand Lodge who have served you this past year are an exceptional group of men. I t is not often that someone has the opportunity to choose two brothers to serve in an advancing Grand Lodge Officer line. I t is my sincere belief that both R.W Bro. Dale C. Motter, and RW. Bro. Gordon E. Hopkins will serve the Grand Lodge adequately. The officers represent the length and breadth of this state, each one a dedicated Mason, and each one chosen for a special reason. Their support and willingness to help have made my time in this office go much smoother and faster than I expected. Their ladies have contributed much to the good times we shared together. I wish to say a special word about the Grand Secretary, R.W. Bro. Thrry C. Alexander, who has now a full year of experience and an expanded knowledge of the Grand Lodge system. It has been a year of learning for him, he has always had the best interest of the fraternity in mind as he performed the duties of the office. These fine officers have worked with me as a team, sharing a wealth of brotherhood and unity of purpose which may never be equalled. These officers are truly my brothers. ORDER OF THE EASTERN STAR My visit to the Grand Chapter of The Order of The Eastern Star in St. Louis was enjoyed by both Mrs. Kinkead and myself. Sister Edith Burnett, Worthy Grand Matron, and Brother Ray Osborn, Worthy Grand Patron, were both very gracious during our m~y times together.

1987

GRAND LODGE OF MISSOURI

I have been with Sister Opal Schultz, Worthy Grand Matron, and Brother Leon Leirer, Worthy Grand Patron. many times since mid-October when their terms began. Our association has been most enjoyable. Sisters Geraldine Molander, Lonnie Stadler, and Georgia Beason who represent The Order of the Eastern Star as Advisors to the Massonic Home Board of Directors have made a valuable contribution to the Masonic Home. Without their input the Western Unit would not be the beautiful facility it is today. Only they know how much they contributed in time, money and effort. The bond between the Grand Lodge and the Grand Chapter, Order of The Eastern Star has strengthened during the past few years. Both organizations have benefited from a more harmonious association. NECROLOGY "Thou hast promised to be with us in time of need. We are again impressed with our weakness and tum to Thee whose power endureth forever:' In thy infinite wisdom 2,225 of our brothers have been taken from our band to meet with us no more. The only Grand Lodge Officer to answer the call of the Supreme Architect was R.w. Bro. Willis D. Williams, District Deputy Grand Master, 28th District. As we remember our departed Brethren, our spirits are bowed low, bringing us to a blissful reunion with departed friends and brothers in the house not made with hands. Please give your attention to the Chairman of the Grand Lodge Necrology Committee, M.W. Bro. J.e. Montgomery, Jr., as he conducts a brief memorial service in honor of all departed Brethren. MASONIC HOME OF MISSOURI During the five years as a member of the Masonic Home of Missouri Board of Directors, I have seen many changes. The Western Unit has become a reality, with nearly one-third occupancy. The Western Home is a beautiful structure, well managed, with contented residents, that is a joy to visit. In addition to the Western Unit more than five million dollars have been spent on improvements on the Eastern Unit in those five years. The needs of the over 300 residents of the home is continuous, therefore fund raising is a never ending process. Records show that when lodges contact their members and describe the need, our brothers respond generously for the cause. I have many happy memories of my association with residents, staff, the Board of Directors, and The Order of the Eastern Star Advisory Board. We can be proud of 98 years of service our Masonic Home has rendered. It requires our continuing support, both moral and financial. MASONIC SERVICE HOSPITAL VISITATION PROGRAM M.W. Bro. Harry S. Truman expressed his support of the Masonic Service Association when he addressed the Brethren in 1941. A vital part of the Masonic Service Association is the Veterans Hospital visitation program. I have visited each of the five Veterans Administration Hospitals in Missouri. On December 23, 1986, Bro. James Pepper and his staff conducted a tour of the Popular Bluff Hospital. I visited with several patients including Worshipful Brother Clifford Cox, a long time friend. W. Bro. Wayne Hill and his staff showed me through the Truman Veterans Ad-

ministration Hospital in Columbia on Jan. 28, 1987. The Junior Grand Marshal R.W. Bro. Charles Warren Ohrvall, the Hospital Visitor at the Kansas City Hospital, and I toured the hospital on March 20, 1987. August 18, 1987 was a first for the entire Masonic Service Hospital Visitation Program. The Director of the program, M.W. Bro. Thomas R. Daugherty, Past Grand Master of New Jersey, visited the Jefferson Barracks Hospital, where Worshipful Brother William House is in charge of the program. He also visited John Cochran Hospital where R.W Bro. Edward Gilmore is Chief Visitor. Brothers Pepper, Hill and Ohrvall were also present. This was the first time all the Visitors in a Grand Jurisdiction, the Director of the program, and a Grand Master have been together. These Brethren are congratulated for their good works. AREA MEETINGS During the past year a total of seventeen area meetings were held. Due to a new Grand Secretary who needed time to become established in his office, the area meetings were held in the early spring. A total of 346 lodges met the requirement of attendance at area meetings to help qualify their lodge for the achievement award. R.W. Bro. Stanton Brown and others presented a skit, demonstrating the proper procedure to follow when investigating a petitioner. The Masonic Education Committee emphasized the new leadership training program. The Public Relations Committee introduced a roadside sign, a public relations handbook, and a Missouri Masonic lapel pin. The Grand Master emphasized Masonic Management, encouraging all to show pride of membership and pride of ownership. A panel of four selected brothers and anyone present who cared to comment considered four questions: 1. Should our Masonic 'Thmples be open to the public? Especially if the lodge does not have liability insurance? 2. How do we answer those who are critical of Masonry? 3. What is "improper solicitation"? 4. How would a member of a recognized lodge who is of non-white color be received in your lodge? Most who attended these area meetings left the meeting stimulated and ready to lead their lodges to greater attainments. GRAND MASTER'S BREAKFASTS

Weston Lodge No. 53 sponsored a breakfast to honor the Grand Master at Ararat Shrine 'Thmple in Kansas City, Oct. 12, 1986. Perseverence Lodge No. 92, Louisiana held.the 29th Annual Grand Master's breakfast October 18, 1986. This is one of the largest gatherings of Masons in Northeast Missouri. This occasion gives the Grand Master an opportunity to meet many Masonic leaders. Each year a free will donation is taken for the benefit of the Masonic Home. On Sunday, Oct. 26, 1986, a large group of Masons assembled at Freedom Lodge No. 636, Mehlville, for the annual breakfast to honor the Grand Master. The largest assembly of Master Masons in Missouri is the St. Louis Grand

The expressions of appreciation from those receiving help was most gratifying. I am optimistic that our fraternity will be in a position to do much more in the way of disaster relief in the future. MASONIC YOUTH ORGANIZATIONS AND GRAND MASTER'S MASONIC YOUTH AWARD The Masonic Youth Organizations continue to need our recognition and support. I know of no reason why we as individuals and lodges should not attend and promote the Bethels of Job's Daughters, Assemblies of Rainbow Girls, and Chapters of the Order of DeMolay. 1b be associated with the young ladies of Job's Daughters, Rainbow for Girls, and the young men of DeMolay is a real thrill. Excitement is at its peak when awards for various accomplishments are being made at many of the youth gatherings. It was my pleasure to recognize Mitchell Cross who has exemplified those principles professed by DeMolay in an outstanding manner on May 25, 1987 in Jefferson City, when he received the Grand Master's Masonic Youth Award. Miss Gina M. Manzo, who has exemplified those principles proclaimed by Job's Daughters in an outstanding manner, received the Grand Master's Masonic Youth

Award on June 27, 1987 in Jefferson City. Receiving the Grand Master's Masonic Youth Award for exemplifying those principles professed by Rainbow Girls was Miss Shelley R. Newman, in St. Louis on July 6, 1987. Worshipful Brother Richard A. Holmes, Missouri's Associate Grand Guardian, Order of Job's Daughters is giving able guidance to the Jobbies. Miss Jeanne Mueller, long time Supreme Deputy in Missouri, Order of Rainbow for Girls, continues her good work. The Order of DeMolay has a new Executive Officer in Missouri, Bro. Ronald L. Zumalt, a past State Master Councilor. He was selected by the Grand Master of DeMolay to succeed R.W. Bro. Ronald M. Compton. DeMolay is now being revitalized in Missouri. Brethren, the Executive Officer and the DeMolay Officers need your help. Our future is with the youth, they need our help, let's help them. SPECIAL EVENTS November 8, 1986. St. Francois Lodge No. 234 with assistance of many members of Memorial United Methodist Church in Farmington hosted a reception for the Grand Master. 250 were present, my "Thanks" to all who made the evening most enjoyable. November 9, 1986. Present for the installation of Bro. Nicholas E. Kinkead as State Master Councilor of Missouri, Order of DeMolay. November 13, 1986. Guest of International Order of DeMolay in Kansas City for the First Annual Hall of Fame Banquet and Induction Ceremonies. I welcomed all present to Missouri on behalf of all Missouri Master Masons. It was my pleasure to see R.W Bro. Walter C. Ploeser, one of fourteen, inaugurated into the International DeMolay Hall of Fame. November 1-'1,1986. Th have a part in the Cornerstone Ceremony for the International DeMolay Service and Leadership Center in Kansas City was a "once in a lifetime" occurrence for only a very few Grand Masters. The officers of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Missouri performed the ceremony in the presence of most of the countries' Masonic Leaders. The event was well attended. There were fourteen State Master Councilors present. December 27, 1986. Installed the officers of St. Francois Lodge No. 234, assisted by Brother Nicholas Kinkead as Installing Marshal, and R.W. Bro. Bill Wood as Installing Chaplain. Officers installed included David V. Kinkead, Worshipful Master; Nicholas E. Kinkead, Junior Steward; Installed as Secretary. March 1-'1, 1987. Many of the Past Grand Masters of Missouri gathered in the Grand Lodge Office in Columbia for the second Past Grand Masters Conference. The main subject for discussion was the merits of such a conference, and what might be the function of an organization of Past Grand Masters. May 1-'1, 1987. I accepted the invitation and was initiated into Lord of Lords Tabernacle Holy Royal Arch Knight Thmplar Priests in St. Louis. July 1,1987. The signing of the Masonic Day Proclamation by Governor John Ashcroft, proclaiming Sunday, September 20, 1987 as Masonic Day in Missouri. CORNERSTONES AND DEDICATIONS During the Grand Lodge year there were eleven ceremonies of laying cornerstones and/or dedications.

GRAND LODGE OF MISSOURI

I conducted: the cornerstone ceremony - DeMolay Leadership and Service Center Building, Kansas City, Nov. 14, 1986; the cornerstone ceremony Pythagoras Lodge No. 383, Cassville, Nov. 23, 1986; the cornerstone ceremony - Warren Lodge No. 74, Keytesville, Mar. 29, 1987; the re-dedication ceremony - Moberly Lodge No. 344, Moberly, July 26, 1987; the cornerstone and dedication ceremonies - Hermitage Lodge No. 288, Hermitage, Sept. 12, 1987; the cornerstone ceremony - new public school, Seneca, Sept. 13, 1987; the cornerstone and dedication ceremonies - Blackwell Lodge No. 535, Blackwell, Sept. 20, 1987. M.W. Bro. J. Edward Blinn, P.G.M., conducted the cornerstone ceremony for the United Methodist Church of Ava, Oct. 5,1986. R.W. Bro. Frank A. Arnold conducted the cornerstone ceremonies for Meramec R-I I I Elementary School in Pacific, Oct. 19, 1986 and the United States Post Office Building in Powersville, December 20,1986. R.W Bro. Thomas K. McGuire, Jr., conducted the cornerstone ceremony of the Moore-Few Nursing Home in Nevada, Sept. 19, 1987. The four lodges that have constructed new temples are to be congratulated. Warren Lodge in Keytesville is unique in that their building is a combination Masonic Thmple and Community Center. Moberly Thmple was extensively damaged by fire. After repairs the Brethren wanted the Thmple re-dedicated. The request for Masonic Ceremonies for new schools, and other buildings is an indication of favorable visibility of Freemasonry in these communities. CONFERENCES AND GRAND LODGE VISITS The Grand Lodge of Georgia held their 200th Anniversary Communication in Macon Oct. 26, 27 and 28, 1986. Mrs. Kinkead and I were treated to the best southern hospitality and a display of brotherly love. Accompanied by the Senior Grand Warden Robert D. Jenkins; the Senior Grand Steward Frank A. Arnold; and Past Grand Master William J. Hill and their ladies, Mrs. Kinkead and I attended the Conference of Grand Masters of North America at Calgary, Alberta, Canada Feb. 15 through 18, 1987. The conference provided an opportunity to share ideas and concerns with leaders from other jurisdictions. Emphasis was put on the special occasion of the 200th Anniversary of the adoption of our United States Constitution. All Grand Masters signed a proclamation, proclaiming September 1987 as Constitution Month. It was my pleasure to serve on the Time and Place Committee that selected the place for the 1991 Conference. The 250th Annual Communication of the Grand Lodge of South Carolina was held in Charleston Apr. 22, 23 and 24, 1987. It was my good fortune to be present. I witnessed the unveiling of a plaque at the site of Freemasonry's beginning in South Carolina This was also the birthplace of Scottish Rite Freemasonry for the Southern Jurisdiction. It was also my pleasure to attend the annual communications of the Grand Lodges of the following jurisdictions: Kentucky; Arkansas; Thnnessee; Oklahoma and Iowa. R.W. Bro. Robert D. Jenkins, Senior Grand Warden, represented Missouri at the annual communication of the Grand Lodge of Kansas. R.W. Bro. Frank A. Arnold, Senior Grand Steward, represented Missouri at the annual communication of the Grand Lodge of Nebraska. IMPERIAL SHRINE SESSION Late in June I attended the Imperial Shrine Session in Las Vegas, Nevada

PROCEEDINGS OF THE

1987

through the courtesy of the four Shrine Thmples in Missouri. Forty-four Grand Masters were present. Again the Grand Masters had an opportunity to discuss matters of interest. I, along with all of the Grand Masters present, was disappointed at the action taken by the Imperial Shrine. The delegates at the Imperial Session voted two to one, to allow a Noble who loses his membership in a prerequisite body for any reason other than non-payment of dues, to remain a Shriner under certain circumstances. The Shrine took similar action in 1978. The following September the Missouri Grand Lodge adopted a resolution: "That this Grand Lodge Session reaffirm the supremacy of the Grand Lodge of Missouri over all organizations and activities Masonic in Missouri. That the lodges, severally under the jurisdiction of the Grand Lodge exercise exclusive jurisdiction over the membership of our Blue Lodges. And that membership in a Blue Lodge is a prerequisite in any appendant body within the State of Missouri" PROCLAMATIONS I proclaimed the month of March, 1987, as Masonic Education Month within the jurisdiction of Missouri. Masonic Education is a subject that teaches the principles, practices, history and philosophy of Freemasonry. Each lodge was requested to hold a communication with the presentation ofa well-planned program or an interesting subject of Masonic Education. May, 1987 was proclaimed Masonic Service Month in Missouri. Our fraternity was founded centuries ago to care for those brothers, their widows, and their orphans who were less fortunate than themselves. Missouri Masons pay special attention to opportunities to excel by letting their light shine in their communities. During May the officers and members of each lodge were requested to show pride of membership by rendering service which would bring favorable visibility in their communities. Numerous Cerrtificates of Merit have been awarded to those lodges who demonstrated leadership and devotion by participation in both projects. During 1787 fifty-five statesmen framed the Constitution of the United States to produce a fundamental law of union, justice, tranquility, safety, welfare, and liberty between people and states. Among the 39 who signed the Constitution on September 17, 1787 were thir路 teen known Masons, seven others may have had Masonic connections. These Freemasons were instrumental in framing the most historic document ever penned by human hands. I t bears the hallmarks of the ancient charges of Freemasonry. The Honorable Governor of the State of Missouri, John Ashcroft, proclaimed Sept. 20,1987 as Masonic Day in Missouri. I proclaimed Sunday, September 20, 1987 to also be known as Federal Constitution Day. The officers and members were petitioned to observe the Bicentennial of the Constitution of the United States with an appropriate program that would stimulate an appreciation and understanding of our national heritage on Sunday, Sept. 20, 1987. SPECIAL RECOGNITIONS The following Brethren deserve special mention for their contribution to the Grand Lodge the past several months. Not one of these Brethren were a part of the team when this Grand Lodge year started Their labors for the fraternity will long be remembered and their efforts will be the spark that will make a difference in years to come.

GRAND LODGE OF MISSOURI

Those who were instrumental in creating the Leadership 1hrining Program were: Bm Gary LaBranch~ Frank S. Land Lodge u.n.; Bm David Leininger, II, Ivanhoe Lodge No. 446; Bm Ronald M. Hickey, Independence No. 76; Bm Gary McLallen, Christian Lodge No. 392; Bm Howard L. Adkins, Country Club Lodge No. 656; Bro. Russell BetheL Liberty Lodge No. 31. 'IWo brothers who have been most helpful to the Public Relations Committee are: Bm Daniel S. Lucas, Hope Lodge No. 251 and Bm Thd E. Grimminger, Lewis and Clark Lodge u.n. and Berkeley Lodge No. 667. These hard working Brethren deserve special recognition for their good work. Each will be acknowledged at the Awards Banquet tonight. TRIAL COMMISSION I t was my unpleasant duty to appoint three trial commissions. Fellowship Lodge No. 345 requested. on~ and Bridgeton Lodge No. 80 requested two. Others are pending. 1b those Brethren who were requested to perform the unpleasant duty of serving on the trial commissions goes an expression of gratitude on behalf of our Fraternity. It is unfortunate that such actions become necessary, but we must police our craft if we are to maintain integrity and honor in the Fraternity. DECISIONS There has been a disputed point with Jasper Lodge No. 398 and the Grand Secretary for a number of years. R.W. Bm Thrry C. Alexander asked for a decision that would hopefully resolve the case. For a number of years Jasper Lodge No. 398 paid Grand Lodge dues on two deceased brothers. During the those several years neither the lodge Secretary, the Worshipful Master nor the lodge auditing committee discovered the error. When the error was reported to the Grand Lodge in the annual returns in 1983 the lodge claimed a reduction of $122.00 from the total amount due the Grand Lodge. The Grand Secretary disapproved the "claim of reduction in the amount due Grand Lodge." Jasper Lodge No. 398 has continued to reduce the amount due Grand Lodge in succeeding years by either $122.00 or $130.00. The Grand Secretary has likewise disapproved the reduction each succeeding year. Having examined the facts and figures entered by Jasper Lodge No. 398 in the questioned annual returns and having considered the contents of correspondence written on the matter of the "claim of reduction of the amount due the Grand Lod~" I determine that Jasper Lodge No. 398 has been at fault and is therefore not entitled to claim the reduction. I do rule that a constituent lodge under the jurisdiction of the Grand Lodge of Missouri may submit information which would correct facts and figures entered in the annual returns, submitted to the Grand Secretary in those annual returns, of June 30 of any year for a period of ninety (90) days following the installation of the succeeding Worshipful Master. After ninety (90) days following the installation of the succeeding Worshipful Master, The Most Worshipful Grand Master of Masons of Missouri must approve of any adjustments of the facts and figures reported in the preceding annual returns. Explanation - Section 9.035 Audit Committee: Instructs the Master immediately upon installation to appoint an audit committee. If the audit commit-

PROCEEDINGS OF THE

1987

tee finds any errors in the annual returns submitted to the Grand Secretary, there would be a period of ninety (90) days following the appointment of that commit-

tee for adjustments to be made in the annual returns. Calculations prepared by the past and present Grand Secretaries indicates that Jasper Lodge No. 398 owes the Grand Lodge of Missouri $110.50. It is my ruling that Jasper Lodge No. 398 owes the Grand Lodge of Missouri $110.50. In March 1987 I received a letter which reads: I need your help in clarifying when. if at all, and under what circumstances alcoholic beverages may be consumed (sold or otherwise) in and around our temple on East Ohio Street in Clinton, Mo. I herewith formally request a ruling from you in order that we may be assured that we are acting lawfully.

The letter was from Kenneth F. Scott, Jr., M.D., Worshipful Master of Clinton Lodge No. 548, Clinton, Missouri My reply referred to rulings in Section 9.140 of the Constitution and By-laws, Grand Lodge of Missouri. "Any activity that does not include drinking, gambling, or other illegal activity is permitted in the lodge building other than the lodge room, preparation room or tiler's room, or area for the tiler." 1974-96. Ray V. Denslow's definition of Halls, Masonic was cited. Halls, Masonic: A Masonic Lodge meets in a building called a Masonic Hall by the uninitiated, but a Masonic Thmple by the Freemason. Grand Lodges often have requirements for the occupancy of buildings.

My ruling was: with the exception of the officially adopted ritual for the conferral of work and of the ceremonial Masonic occasions of the Grand Lodge, my ruling is that alcoholic beverages are forbidden in a Masonic Thmple, and extends further to include the area near a Masonic Thmple that is owned and/or controlled by a Masonic .Lodge, a Masonic Thmple Association or a Building Association as defined in Section 9.070. A letter dated June 25, 1987 from Right Worshipful Brother Keith Wilkinson, Sr., District Deputy Grand Master of the 59th Masonic District, stated that it had come to his attention that Raytown Lodge No. 391 had conferred a first degree on Granville Lynn McCarty whose left hand is missing. Mr. McCarty uses an artificial appliance as a left hand. The Secretary of Raytown Lodge No. 391 consulted the Grand Secretary, who suggested that the District Deputy Grand Master should get the Grand Lecturer's opinion. R.W. Bro. Stanton Brown thought Brother McCarty would need healing, due to an irregular conferral of the first degree. The District Deputy Grand Master requested a healing order. I studied Section 13.100 of the Grand Lodge By-laws and determined that Raytown Lodge No. 391 had not committed an error in conferring the Entered Apprentice Degree on Granville Lynn McCarty. Therefore there was no reason for a healing order. The Secretary of Granite Lodge No. 272 A.F. & A.M., Sedalia, Missouri, Bro. Ray Hendricks, sent a copy of a message from the Sedalia Horse Racing Association suggesting a fund-raising method whereby an organization would sell tickets to the horse races and receive one-half the sale price of the tickets. The question was asked if I would give permission for a member or members of the lodge to take part in this medium to raise funds for the charity and welfare account. In the letter from the Sedalia Horse Racing Association it was stated that announcements would be made over the public address system recognizing the fund raising organization. The Secretary in this letter, stated that Granite Lodge would

1987

GRAND LODGE OF MISSOURI

in no way allow any announcements to be made designating Granite Lodge or the mention of Masons. My response, "It is my opinion that in the best interest of Freemasonry that a lodge should in no way become involved in such a project." "Reference was made in your letter that a Brother who is involved in various honest enterprises would be willing to become associated with this endeavor. There would be no problem if he or others used this method of fund raising and donated the income to the Granite Lodge Charity and Welfare Fund." DISPENSATIONS Included in the Grand Secretary's Report. CONSENTS OR PERMISSIONS Included in the Grand Secretary's Report. HEALINGS Included in the Grand Secretary's Report. STATE OF THE CRAFT There are always reasons to be excited and reasons to be depressed. Our fraternity is growing older. It was 40 years ago when 7,000 were raised to the degree of Master Mason. Many lodges are doing great work: having educational programs; practicing charity; and making a favorable impression in the community. Other lodges barely exist. Any outstanding lodge has a Master and Officers with enthusiasm, who are hard working and encourage the brethren "The Working 100is of Leadership" is designed to help the officers of a lodge develop into an outstanding lodge. The interest and enthusiasm of those who attended the eight Lodge Education Officers Workshops was an indication that the Brethren were ready for leadership training. "The Working Thols of Leadership" was developed by a group of young Masons who are conveying the message "There are other ways than the way many lodges have been doing things, give these ideas a try." Response to the commemorative Bicentennial of the United States Constitution coin; the Missouri Masonic lapel pin, and the roadside sign indicate the Brethren are willing to use these methods of informing the non-Masonic community about Freemasonry. The District Deputy Grand Masters reports are more optimistic than in recent years. This is an indication of renewed interest and attendance in many lodges, due to ideas and programs introduced by past leaders. A new venture for Missouri Freemasonry is the organ donor program, to benefit mankind. More will be presented concerning this program later in the session. The development of this program is being watched. The director of the National Transplant Association has indicated that the Missouri Organ Donor Program may be a pilot plan that will be used to encourage other fraternal and service groups to become involved in such a venture. Harmony prevails between the Blue Lodge and all appendant Masonic groups. All are cooperating in an effort to make Masonry a viable part of modern society. The semi-annual Masonic Roundtable has been responsible for giving all bodies of Masonry an opportunity to come together and strengthen each other by sharing ideas.

I am enthused! Freemasonry has a future in our state. The most hean-warming statement I have heard this past year was, "I have been a Mason for many years, served on a Grand Lodge committee for nearly 15 years and for the first time I am doing what I think Masons should be doing." RECOMMENDATIONS The by-laws directs the Grand Master's address to contain recommendations for such measures as he considers expedient and necessary. My recommendations: 1. That the Public Relations Committee which is now a special committee, become a standing committee. 2. The creation of a suggested memorial service to be presented when there is not a body present. There are many who will their bodies to science. They are deserving of an appropriate memorial service. 3. Guard the portals! If errors in judgement are made, and an unworthy man is accepted, Brethren, initiate the proper procedures as described in the trial code. 4. Present and past Grand Lodge Officers know more about the Fraternity, the local lodges and the Brethren who compose those lodges than any other group. There must be a way to put that knowledge to good use. I recommend that there be a continued effort made to put this knowledge to good use. Continue the effort to form more Right Worshipful Clubs and improve those that are now functioning. 5. Support those endeavors that are designed to bring favorable visibility to the Fraternity. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Th you my Brethren and so many more who are not present, I thank you for the courtesies and kindness extended to me during the past year. I am grateful for the confidence you placed in me and for the cooperation you have accorded me throughout the year. Th M.W. Bro. John C. Montgomery, Jr., my deep appreciation for the appointment to the advancing Grand Lodge line. He has been a continuing source of support. I am grateful for his advice and his friendship. The District Deputy Grand Masters are a group of dedicated and hard working Masons whom I wish to thank. They have represented the Grand Master in each lodge. Many have worked on special assignments without hesitation. This has been very helpful to the Grand Master when decisions were required. Much of the Grand Lodge activities are in the committee system. There are three committees that have performed extraordinarily this past year: The Masonic Education; Public Relations; and Youth Committee. My special thanks' to two new special committees that have fulfilled their assignment: the Insurance Study and Life Membership Study Committees. A special word of thanks goes to the members of St. Francois Lodge No. 234, for the very special reception and gift of luggage. Also thanks to those members who accompanied me on so many trips. Many Brethren from the 48th District have been especially helpful. R.W. Bro. Dennis McGuire, District Deputy Grand Master, and RW. Bro. Harold J. Richardson, District Deputy Grand Lecturer deserve special mention for their helpfulness. Th R.W. Bro. Frank Ames Arnold for his work on special assignments, a heartfelt "thank you." Brother Arnold worked on several projects as a help to both

GRAND LODGE OF MISSOURI

the Grand Master and Grand Secretary. The three proclamation mailings were handled by Brother Arnold. Several other projects were completed by him. Only half of the amount budgeted for this special service was used to compensate him for these efforts. I am indebted to R.W Bro. Alfred E. Spencer and R.W. Bra. Duane Eiserman; both are students of Masonry and both have provided helpful information which was used by me several times. Particular acknowledgements: to the Bonne 'Thrre York Rite Bodies for the Grand Master's Class; to the Valley of Kansas City Scottish Rite for the Grand Master's Class; to the St. Louis Square Club for the apron case; to Moolah Shrine 'Thmple for the beautiful Grand Master's Fez and case; to the many lodges and other groups who presented me with gifts; to the Entertainment of Distinguished Guests Committee for the many hours of work preparing for Grand Lodge. The Grand Lodge is indebted to the St. Louis Valley Scottish Rite for the privilege of using this beautiful Cathedral for this one hundred sixty-sixth annual communication. CONCLUSION I am overwhelmed by all the great things that happened to Freemasonry in Missouri and to your Grand Master this past twelve months. It was an experience that can occur only once in a lifetime. There has been a tremendous team of Grand Lodge Officers and Committees all working together to cause these many accomplishments to take place. My wholehearted "thanks" to all. 1b Bud and Louise Bohling for looking after the farmstead when the Kinkeads were away, we are indebted to you. Sons David and Nick I appreciate all your help. 1b Mrs. Kinkead who has been so helpful, supportive and understanding there is no way to repay her. I often say nothing can replace that eight letter phrase "Thank you:' Evelyn. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote: "Great is the art of beginning, but greater is the art of ending." "Thank you" Brethren, let each one of us be committed to quality as we move forward as a team. May the light of the Supreme Architect's countenance shrine upon everyone. Fraternally submitted, ~

Deputy Grand Master Thomas K. McGwre, Jr.: "Brethren, the Grand Master's Address will be received and referred to the Grand Lodge Committee on the Grand

Master's Address, M.W. Brother Charles E. Scheurich, Chairman."

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON NECROLOGY M.W. Brother J.C. Montgomery, Jr., Chairman, moved that the Report of the Committee on Necrology be received and printed in the PROCEEDINGS. The motion was seconded and approved by vote of the Grand Lodge. To the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of the State of Missouri:

Among the gracious words of the Lodge Funeral Service are these addressed to those near and dear to the departed Brother: "We owe a grateful acknowledgment to you for his social companionship and service, and mingle our sorrows at parting with yours, his near and dear relations." Even beyond the sorrow which touches our hearts afresh in the renewed memory of those "loved long since and lost a while," our mood ought to be much more than sadness. It ought to go beyond grief to gratitude and through tears to thanksgiving. It is a belief that "death is swallowed up in victory:' I t is strengthened by the faith that even though this earthy tabernacle be destroyed, there is a building of God, "an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens." There are many fine tributes we could pay to those who are no longer with us; but the finest is that they shared with us in this Fraternity, that they were our Brothers. In this is a blessing which the world does not have, and yet through it the members of the Craft are enabled to be a blessing to the world as well as to one another. No better description of Freemasonry and of Freemasons could be spoken or written than that of our own late Most Worshipful Brother Ray V. Denslow, Past Grand Master of Missouri, 1931-32. His words read in part: "By signs and symbols 1 teach the lessons of life and death, and the relationship of man with God and of man with man. My arms are widespread to receive those of lawful age and good report who seek me of their own free will 1 accept them and teach them to use my tools in the building of men, and thereby, find direction for their own quest for perfection so much desired and so difficult to attain..

But Fremasonary does not live for itself alone, as M.W Brother Denslow so eloquently wrote: "I lift up the fallen and shelter the sick. 1 hark to the orphan's cry, the widow's tears, the pain of the old and destitute"

Likewise Freemasons recognize their civic and spiritual duties: .....my sons bear a full share of responsibility to God, to country, to neighbor, and to themselves."

Freemasonry recognizes that life is not earth-bound alone and that our Masonic

1987

GRAND LODGE OF MISSOURI

pilgrimage is filled with hope of dawns beyond the sunset. "At the end I commit them as each one undertakes the journey beyond the vale into the glory of everlasting life. I ponder the sand within the glass and think how small is a single life in the eternal Universe. Always have I taught immortality, and even as I raise men from darkness into Light, I am a way of life. I am Freemasonry."

This is what drew our departed companions into the Fraternity even as it beckoned us to join in a journey similar to theirs. Our gratitude must rest in these simple but profound truths: - these were our teachers, exemplars, and guides in the mysteries of Freemasonry: - but, beyond that, they were our Brethren.

Thanks be to God for these gifts. Our Grand Secretary tells us that from the reports of the constituent lodges of his office, some 2,225 Brethren have answered the summons to celestial labors in the year past. Although all of these should have been memorialized in our local lodges, a number served the Grand Lodge in particular capacities. We lift up their memory and service before you at this time. R.W.

REPORT OF THE GRAND LECTURER RW. Brother Stanton 'f. Brown moved that the Report of the Grand Lecturer, as printed in the Booklet, "Reports of Officers and Committees" be accepted and printed in the PROCEEDINGS. The motion was seconded. By vote of the Grand Lodge, the Report of the Grand Lecturer was accepted. 1b the Grand Lodge, A.R & A.M. of the State of Missouri: BRETHREN: Herewith is submitted my fifteenth annual report as your Grand Lecturer. Divine Providence has again smiled upon me and has permitted me to visit officially each of the Masonic districts once, several a second time, and on occasions when the presence of the Grand Lecturer was needed, a third time. The intent of this report is to advise you of the condition of the ritualistic work throughout this Grand Jurisdiction and inform the Grand Lodge of the work performed during this past year as your Grand Lecturer. Generally speaking, the condition of the ritual over the state is excellent. There are many of the lodges that I have visited this year who are doing their work with a degree of excellence and pride that has not been seen in the recent past. However, we do have some districts in which that pride is lacking and there is need to stimulate a renewed interest in perfecting the work. Perhaps the new interest would be more degree work, but quantity is not the answer if sloppily executed and the listening ear hardly understands the mumbled words. Even the routine opening and closing of the lodge are impressive if the brethren speak out with confidence and the floor work is executed with a degree of perfection that would be an inspiration to members in all areas of their lodge work. Enthusiasm begets enthusiasm - apathy begets apathy. We have a beautiful ritual; let us demonstrate it in our lodge rooms and stimulate an upsurge in petitions presented by good men seeking more light. One thing I have noticed over the years is that the ones who most need help in perfecting their work are the ones who never come to a practice; it could be that the reason they won't come to my schools, or those held by the District Deputy Grand Lecturers, is that they don't know their work at all and do not want to be embarrassed. I will never belittle someone who doesn't know his work and I'm sure that the Deputies will not allow jest or laughter toward a brother who is trying to learn. Come out and try us. In addition to the official visits to the 57 districts, we again held 20 sectional meetings, primarily for the District Deputy Grand Lecturers in five locations in the state: Northeast, Northwest, Southeast, Southwest and Central The cities hosting these schools were Cameron, Poplar Bluff, Sedalia, Springfield, Monroe City, Chillicothe, Washington, St. J ~ph, Sikeston, Kansas City, and Bowling Green, to whom we express our appreciation for the use of their fine facilities and the delicious meals. These schools were well attended with attendance showing more strength in the fall and winter than at other times. The schools are extremely important to the deputy system as they allow a deputy to sharpen his ritualistic skills. It permits the observer to become a better ritualist and in tum help his lodge. We have an opportunity to try out new men who are aspiring to become deputies. Without

the schools, our ritual would soon lOse some of its sharpness. After the conclusion of the area meetings and after most districts had been visited, I once again held 20 joint meetings for from two to four districts where we were able to do some of the degree work that we were unable to cover in the district meetings. Because the officers who took part were well into their year, they seemed more at ease and able to execute their work with the increased confidence that only experience can give. I was invited to participate in the area meeting by our Grand Master M.W Bro. P. Vincent Kinkead, and appreciated the demonstrations given by our select cast of Grand Lodge officers. The demonstration was a role play covering what was obviously the wrong way and then we suggested ways to handle an investigation of a new petitioner. It was an enjoyable time for all. I am unable to phrase the words to express the appreciation I have and the obligation I feel for the District Deputy Grand Lecturers who have given of their money, time and talents along with travel to become an extension of your Grand Lecturer and bring light and instruction to every lodge room in this state. Because of their efforts in their own and adj oining districts, the work is performed in the same way all over the state. Some of these brethren have asked to be relieved of their duties at the close of this year. Although there will be other brethren assuming those responsibilities, we know they will maintain a keen interest in the ritual and give assistance where needed. Hundreds of hours of teaching and thousands of miles of travel are but outward indications of the combined efforts of both District Deputy Grand Lecturers and District Deputy Grand Masters to share with their fellow Master Masons the truths and tenets of Freemasonry; those same truths and tenets that have inspired patriot and diplomat, commoner and king to be the best that he can be and to be an inspiration to his fellow man along the way. For the fourth successive year, the Grand Lodge officers have traveled to a different part of the state and conferred the Master Mason degree on a proficient Fellow Craft. This year the occasion took place in the beautiful Masonic 'Thmple at Kirksville in the 2nd Masonic District. The conferral was conducted in a most impressive manner by our Grand Lodge officers. The dress again was formal attire which added to the dignity of the work. I want to express my thanks to the Grand Master and Grand Lodge officers for their part in this fine degree. We could not have asked for a finer group of brethren than the officers and members of the two lodges, Kirksville No. 105 and Adair No. 366, along with our District Deputy Grand Master and Lecturer of the 2nd Masonic District, and Past Grand Master MW. Bro. Bruce H. Hunt for their handling the details in connection with this affair. A new program was initiated this past year. A statewide round robin happened for the first time in Missouri They were held in 5 areas of the state; March 7 in Springfield, March 14 in Boonville, March 28 in Chillicohte, April 4 in Kirksville, and April 11 in Sikeston. The winners in those areas were RW. Bro. Arthur R Zellmer, RW. Bro. Billie Pollard, Bro. Thny L. Ray, R.W. Bro. John E. Reece and Bro. Donald G. Ferrell, in that order. These fine brethren came to Columbia to the Grand Lodge office on April 18 and once more competed, with RW. Bro. John E. Reece of Seaman Lodge No. 126, Milan being declared the winner. In each area there were from 12 to 16 contestants with a number of spectators. Each of the area winners was presented with a trophy. The state winner received a handsome trophy which had his name, lodge and year engraved upon it and will be a travel-

ing trophy passed along each year. There seemed to be a great deal of mterest and we have plans for another one next year; plan to enter. 'Ib MW Bro. P. Vincent Kinkead, I want to express a special thanks for the confidence he reposed in me in reappointing me as your Grand Lecturer. Most Worshipful Brother Vincent and his Evelyn have a very special place in my and Johnnie's heart because of our long and close relationship; for their love and concern which they expressed to us over the years and whenever and wherever our paths met. The opportunity to have served under his leadership has been most rewarding and enlightening to me as he has related to the grassroots of our Fraternity. He has exhibited a unique ability to reach into the hearts of all of his brethren. I want to thank the entire line of Grand Lodge officers for the support and encouragement they have given me. This Grand Lodge body owes the Grand Lodge officers a debt of gratitude as they give of their time and talents, each in his own unique way. Finally, my brethren, I want to thank you all for the way that you have accepted my correction whenever necessary. I truly hope none have been offended. I thank you all and particularly the Great Architect of Heaven and Earth for the opportunity to serve as your Grand Lecturer for the years 1986, 1987. God bless you all. Fraternally submitted, Stanton T. Brown, Grand Lecturer REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON RITUAL R.W. Brother Stanton T. Brown, Chairman, moved that the Report of the Committee on Ritual presented in the Booklet, "Reports of Officers and Committees" be accepted and printed in the PROCEEDINGS. The motion was seconded and the Report of the Committee on Ritual was accepted. To the Grand Lodge, A ..F. & A.M. of the State of Missouri: BRETHREN: Your committee on Ritual met in Kirksville, Mo. on May 23,1987. All members present except Dale Ludwig. Your committee on Ritual wishes to submit the following report. Several fine points of the Ritual were discussed for clarification and to assure that all members of the committee are in agreement. There have been no requests for Ritual changes. It is our feeling that the Ritual should remain as it is now unless compelling reasons appear to indicate a change that would enhance the quality of the work. The committee realizes that its chief function is "to conserve and preserve the work" and it will be constantly on guard to see that nothing prevents it from discharging that obligation in full. The matter of the setting maul disposal by the 300 and 2nd Ruffians was discussed. It was agreed that the maul would be placed on the second step in line with the Master's pedestal by each person respectively. The committee members have been kept quite busy handling the matters dealing with the Certificate plans. We wish to express our apprciation to R.W. Bro. 'Thrry C. Alexander and his office staff for their valuable assistance in handling the detailed work which goes through the Grand Lodge office with regard to the Certificate plan.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE

1987

To the Grand Lodge of the State of Missouri A ..F. & A.M. MOST WORSHIPFUL GRAND MASTER: 1Wo principles dear to Missouri Masons are (1) that state and church shall be separate and (2) that public schools should be open to all and treat all alike without regard to race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. In the last two decades or so both principles have been under attack. It seems unlikely that these attacks will cease any time soon. Not every critic of one is necessarily a critic of the other. However, both criticisms often come from the same quarters. We have on occasion read comments made by several persons, which illustrate the relationship between criticism of public schools and undermining of churchstate separation. These critics tend, it seems to us, to blame public schools for the many ills, real or imagined. We list some of the major criticisms simply for the purpose of illustrating what some allege against public schools: Aid to Dependent Children, atheism, busing for non-educational purposes, absence of culture, catering to immigrants whose values are foreign to "our Christian heritage," drug abuse, integration of blacks who cannot live up to the "white man's principles," advocacy of "one world government," poor educational performance (as to reading, grammar, spelling, math, science, etc.), removal of prayer, labor union tactics, high salaries for teachers, low salaries for teachers, loss of traditional values (including the work ethic). Some, but not all, of these critics attached separation of church and state, called for public aid to go equally to public and private schools, favored tuition vouchers as a way to aid private schools, and proposed shared-time programs under which teachers of subjects like science and math would serve in both public and private schools. Some suggested that persons without children should be exempt from school taxes, implying, it seems to us, that public schools should be supported by "users' fees," not taxes. Criticisms of public schools come from persons situated all across the social and political spectrum, but they tend to congregate on the right wing. The same is true of those who attack church-state separation. Public education remains the function of government that directly touches the greatest number of people and that has the respect and support of the largest percentage of the populace. Of course, improvement is both desirable and possible. It will take the cooperation of school patrons and public-spirited citizens to make public schools better. This generation of 'School-age children deserves our best efforts. Future generations will suffer if we fail to preserve a strong public school system. The Non-Establishment Clause of the First Amendment, from which we derive the principle of church-state separation, means at least these things; That it is no business of government (including public schools) to sponsor religion, that government is not to use its taxing power to benefit religion, and that there should be no on-going, entangling relationship between government and religious institutions. Separation of church and state serves the best interest of both public and church schools. It prevents public schools from serving the particular interests of any church or religion and from becoming arms of the churches. It protects church schools' right to exist, while guarding them against the temptation to dilute their religious character in order to obtain and keep public aid. We Freemasons should be more committed to church-state separation and public schools now than when we entered this brotherhood. Urge your Legislators to respect

"Be it resolved that this Grand Lodge accept the proposal submitted by Thompkins and Company for the purchase from 'fravelers Insurance Companies, a blanket insurance, insuring the Grand Lodge and each of its subordinate lodges, and be it further resolved, that in accordance with the power conferred upon it in Section 1 (4) of Article V of the Constitution, this Grand Lodge assess and collect from the subordinate lodges under its jurisdiction the amounts necessary to pay the premium required for the maintenance of said blanket insurance and be it further resolved, that the appropriate officers and committees of this Grand Lodge are hereby directed and authorized to make any and all--- take any and all action on behalf of and in the name of this Grand Lodge which may be necessary or appropriate to implement the forgoing resolution."

REPORT OF MEDICAL DIRECTOR Medical care at the Masonic Home of Missouri (East and West) continued to be delivered at a high level of quality. This is brought about by the efforts of numerous personnel working together for the same goal. This includes nurses, nurse assistants, dieticians, physical therapists, the staff physicians, and numerous specialists outside of the Masonic Home who see patients on a consulting basis. Our ophthalmologists hold eye clinics at the home weekly. X-rays, laboratory studies, and EKG's are obtained from a mobile unit who come to the Home when needed. Our director of Social Services also provides numerous activities and encourages the members to participate. Those members of the Home who require treatment in a hospital setting are transferred to Deaconess Hospital where such care is received. We average about ten patients daily in Deaconess Hospital. Many times diagnostic tests are performed at the hospital on an out-patient basis. We also have a dentist who conducts a clinic at the home weekly. Dr. Lane, chiropodist, continues to provide foot and toenail care to those needing such treatment. We have passed all of the monthly inspections of the Missouri Division of Aging. Sincerely, HAROLD E. WALTERS, M.D., Medical Director. GIFTS FROM ORDER OF EASTERN STAR July 1, 1986-June 30, 1987

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS Board of Directors Masonic Home of Missouri St. Louis, Missouri We have examined the balance sheet of Masonic Home of Missouri as of June 30, 1987, and the related statement of income, expenses and changes in fund balances for the year then ended. Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and, accordingly, included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to present fairly the financial position of Masonic Home of Missouri as of June 30, 1987, and the results of its operations and changes in fund balances for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE

1987

MASONIC HOME OF MISSOURI NarE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1987 NOTE 1. Organization and summary of significant accounting policies: Description of funds: Current fund: Unrestricted - generaL' General fund unrestricted income includes all income from residents of the Masonic Home of Missouri (the "Home"), dividends and interest from the reserve and endowment funds, per capita taxes from the Grand Lodge and Grand Chapter Order of the Eastern Star and other general fund contributions. This income is used to fund the operations of the Home. Unrestricted - reserve: Unrestricted reserve fund income includes undesignated gifts and bequests and Grand Lodge initiation fees which, according to Board policy, are transferrable to the general fund and expendable for operations only upon approval of the Board of Directors. Dividend and interest income from reserve fund investments is directly recorded in the general fund except for funds to pay agency management fees. Realized gains and losses from reserve fund security transactions are recorded in the reserve fund. Endowments: Certain gifts and bequests of the Home are in the form of endowments which contain legal restrictions as to the use of such funds. Generally, the restrictions provide that the income from the investment of the gifts and bequests is available for operations of the general fund while the principal amounts are to remain invested and are not available for current operations. Accordingly, interest and dividend income from the investment of endowment funds is recorded as transfers to the general fund except for funds to pay agency management fees. Realized gains and losses from endowment fund security transactions are recognized in the endowment funds. Building fund: Contributions for the improvement of buildings and grounds and future construction and the related expenses have been recorded in the building fund. Contributions for the design and construction of the Masonic Home of Missouri Western Unit have been recorded in the building fund Interest income from these monies and expenditures for design and construction of the Western Unit have also been recorded in the building fund. Investments in marketable securities; Marketable securities donated i:.o the Home are recorded at their fair market value as of the date the gift is received; securities purchased by the Home are recorded at cost. Interest and dividend income from these investments is recognized as income when received. Gains and losses from the sale of securities are recognized at the time of sale, and represent the difference between the proceeds received and the carrying value of the securities determined on an average basis. Fixed assets: Expenditures for furniture, equipment, buildings and building improvements are expensed as incurred. Repairs and maintenance, equipment purchases, and furniture and fixtures purchases include expenditures for projects that were funded by specified donations. Home family, pension income and C&A fund: Upon admission to the Home, residents are required to assign and transfer all personal assets to the Home. Nonmonetary assets transferred to the Home are sold as soon a practicable, and the proceeds are recorded at the time of sale. Monetary assets, except fully-

funded insurance policies, are recorded at fair market value at the date of receipt. It is the Home's policy to not recognize the cash surrender value of.fully-funded life insurance policies at the time of entrance in the Home but to recognize the proceeds upon death of the resident. Pension and social security retirement income funds available to residents are assets of the Home. The Home provides each resident a monthly allowance of $25 plus additional amounts for birthdays and holidays. The unexpended portion of these allowances. $136,708 at June 30, 1987, is held in custody by the Home in accounts segregated from Home assets. Remaining balances at the time of the death of the resident revert to the general fund. The following is a summary of the assets and liabilities (unaudited) of the C&A fund as of June 30, 1987: Thtal assets (investments including cash) Unexpended allowances Payable to General Fund Thtal liabilities

$153,544 $136.708 16,836 $153,544

Income taxes: The Home is exempt from Federal income taxes under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3). The Home is taxed as a private operating foundation in accordance with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code Section 4947(A)(l). Accordingly, the net investment income of the Home is subject to a two percent Federal excise tax. The Home requested exempt status through a private letter ruling during the year ended June 30, 1987 to eliminate the payment of the Federal excise tax. As of the report date, approval has not been received for this exemption from the Internal Revenue Service.

BRETHREN: It is my pleasure, as well as duty, to bring you this report of the Masonic Home for the year 1986-1987. As "brevity is the soul of inspiration," so shall this report endeavor to inspire. While I believe that our brethren are primarily interested in statistics and financial reports; yet we cannot, and must not lose sight of the fact that the most important element of our opeation is our residents; secondly, our many volunteers who give unselfishly of their time and talents; and of equal status, our Board of Directors who contribute many many hours of devoted and valuable service to the cause of our Home program and do so without remuneration or compensation. The Board members are listed on page two of this report. Space does not permit the listing of the army of volunteers who serve so faithfully. They truly epitomize the Masonic concept of brotherly love, relief, and truth.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE

1987

WESTERN UNIT Our Western Unit has now been in operation for fifteen months, and like any new institution or operation, it has experienced some growing pains. I am happy to report, however, that these have nearly all been resolved and the Western Unit is well on its way. Ms. Judith Anders has recently been employed as the Administrator of this unit, and while she works directly under our Home Administrator, Bro. James Wilson, she has a firm grip on its operation and we can look forward to great progress in the future. There are now eleven residents at the Western Unit enjoying a home atmosphere that we feel is singularly unique and shared only by those fortunate enough to be a resident of the Masonic Home of Missouri. There is no question that our Western Unit will continue these great traditions that have made our Eastern Unit so outstanding in the past, and that both units will extend their greatness and traditions into the future. STAFF Both of our Units are very fortunate to be under the operation of very dedicated and devoted staff members who not only are indoctrinated with the concept "that the best interest of our residents is paramount," but who also put that concept into practice each day. Under the leadership of our Administrator, Bro. James Wilson, our Home Program is fully supervised, and the personal interest and needs of each resident receives top priority. COMPTROLLER W. Bro. Paul Thbias has continued in his capacity as Comptroller for the Home, and has induced numerous changes in our financial department that have not only made it more efficient, but have also resulted in economical savings as well. BOARD SECRETARY Brother Carl Stein, who has served the Masonic Home and Home Board for years, retired in December of this past year. His retirement left a void that the Board felt would be difficult to fill. His devotion, loyalty, and service to the Home over the years has been outstanding. His is the type of service that cannot be replaced; and he will be sorely missed in the future. Your Board of Directors began a search early to find a capable successor to Brother Stein, and we feel very fortunate that W. Bro. Stephen Givens, Past Master of Charity Lodge in St. Joseph, MO, and who was currently serving as Lodge Secretary; was not only available, but interested in the position of Board Secretary. Brother Givens has been serving as Board Secretary since December, taking over the reins on Brother Stein's retirement. In doing so, he has continued to maintain the tradition of efficient service to the Board and to the Home. We of the Board, of the Home, and of the Fraternity, are very fortunate that we have one such as Brother Givens to conduct the myriad of activities and responsibilities necessary to the successful cooperation between each of these groups. COORDINATOR OF FRATERNAL RELATIONS One would be remiss if he did not mention and commend our Coordinator of

1987

GRAND LODGE OF MISSOURI

Fraternal Relations, M.W. Bro. Fielding Poe, for the many varied duties and activities that he has conducted in a stalwart manner in support of our Masonic Home. Space and brevity do not permit a listing of all these activities; however, it should be noted that he is your liaison to the Home. If you have questions, concerns, or need help regarding wills, contributions, planned giving, Home programs, or Lodge programs about the Home; he is the one to contact. Past experience alone speaks of his willingness to work with you to promote our Masonic Home. Do not hesitate to contact him whenever the need arises. CONTRIBUTIONS Several years ago the list of contributors to the Home was deleted from this report. The Board believes these groups and individuals should be recognized. Contributors to the Masonic Home, beginning November 1, 1987, will appear in the report for 1987-1988. ECONOMICS With the present economic conditions: reduced interest rates coupled with declining membership; the financial status of the Home, while not alarming, does present need for study and consideration. Increased expenses, along with the operation of our Western Unit being added to our budget, necessitates, quite naturally, budget increases that are becoming difficult to fund. Future Boards may well find this to be a perplexing problem if present trends continue. Brethren, your Home may well be facing serious problems in the not too distant future. Consequently, your support and contributions are more imperative than ever before. Recognizing these needs, I have appointed two committees of which you may hear more in the future. The Long Range Planning committee under the cochairmanship of R.W. Bros. Gordon E. Hopkins and D. Robert Downey, and the Fund Raising committee under the chairmanship of R.W. Bro. Dan Cole, have a momentous task before them. Their future recommendations could well have a vital effect upon the future of our Masonic Home and its program of help and aid to our elderly and less fortunate members. ORDER OF EASTERN STAR While a number of our residents are composed of those with Eastern Star Membership, one must also remember the many volunteers, strong support, and sizeable contributions are made by the o.E.S. to our Masonic Home programs. The Eastern Star Advisory Board consisting of Mrs. Geraldine Molander, President; Mrs. Georgia Beason, Treasurer; and Mrs. Lonnie Stalder, Secretary; attend the quarterly Board meetings and render constructive suggestions and service in a variety of ways. Their representation of the Star is outstanding and their service to the Home is invaluable. Without the support of the Advisory Board and the Order of the Eastern Star, many of the services to our residents that make our Home so unique, would be greatly curtailed, if not completely abolished. Brethren, the Masonic Home is your Masonic Home. You may never need its services, but if you do, it is here to serve you. Yes, to serve you in a manner that would be most difficult to duplicate anywhere else; and to serve you in a stage of life where you might be most in need. I t is the one and only place we can really fulfill that obligation of providing relief for a worthy Brother Master Mason, his

PROCEEDINGS OF THE

1987

wife, or widow. It has for over 98 years provided relief for those of our brotherhood, their wives, or widows who were in need and had nowhere else to go. I ts record is unblemished, its service is unequalled. Its program is unexcelled; its purpose is the paragon of virtue. It, and it alone represents to the world the practice and observance of those Masonic tenants of Brotherly love and relief. It is vitally important in these days of changing times and unsettled conditions, as we approach the end of our first 100 years, that we do not let this one representation to the world of Masonry's ability to take care of its own, diminish in any way. In closing, I not only ask, but implore you to join with me in making it number one in our hearts, in its promotion, and in our support that we might put into practice that adage that truly charity does begin at home - The Masonic Home of Missouri. Fraternally submitted, Thomas K. McGUIRE. JR., President. R.W. Brother McGuire moved that the Report of the Masonic Home be accepted and printed in the PROCEEDINGS. The motion was seconded. By the vote of the Grand Lodge, the Report of the Missouri Home was ACCEPTED. ANNOUNCEMENT BY R.W. DEPUTY GRAND MASTER THOMAS K. McGUIRE, JR.

R.W. Brother Thomas K. McGuire, Jr. announced that the Masonic Home Board had approved the motion to print the list of contributors to the Masonic Home in the Report of the Masonic Home. Contributions made after November I, 1987 will appear in the report beginning with the 1987路1988 Booklet. REPORT ON MASONIC FLAG RW. Junior Grand Deacon D. Robert Downey presented a written resolution which called for the adoption of a Missouri Masonic Flag. The resolution was read as follows: RESOLUTION Th the Grand Lodge of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons of the State of Missouri.

To the Most Worshipful Grand Master and Brethren: The Committee on the Grand Master's Address makes the following Report. The Grand Jurisdiction of the State of Missouri has experienced another year with a very dedicated Mason and Grand Master. Our Grand Master has continued the Cooperation with the Masonic Family of Missouri. We commend the Grand Master on his progress of Masonic Education, Public Relations and Masonic Management. These ingredients can only build a stronger fraternity. Most Worshipful Brother Kinkead has shown his interest in the youth organizations by recognizing that our youth of today are our leaders of tomorrow. The proclamations made by the Grand Master reflects his patriotism and recognition of the part Masonry played in the writing of the United States Constitution. Our Grand Masters' belief in the Great Architect of the Universe is shown by the Compassion he has for his fellowman and is illustrated in the difficult decisions he has made. It is the recommendation of this committee that the Decisions, Dispensations and Healings be referred to the Jurisprudence Committee for their report. Our Grand Master has made excellent recommendations for the future of this fraternity and it is the recommendation they be referred to appropriate Grand

These projects included: 1. Publication of a manual to assist officers of subordinate Lodges to design and implement a public relations program at that level 2. A visitation program accompanied by the design and distribution of special Missouri Masonic lapel pins featuring the Square and Compasses within the outline of the State of Missouri. 3.

Design of a portable display for use in the State Fair, and other suitable places, to tell the story of Masonry to the public. 6. Design of the Missouri Masonic decal for distribution at the One Hundred Sixty-Sixth Annual Grand Lodge Communication. 7. Initial implementation of the Organ Donor Program to encourage all Masons, their personal and fraternal families, to help relieve the distress of fellow human beings by holding family conferences and signing organ donor cards. FUTURE PROJECTS

The Committee has completed preliminary planning for the next twelve months and has established four projects which will be added to continuation of existing activities. The four are: 1. Preparation of an insert for the Public Relations Manual to provide suggestions on how to hold a press conference attended by television crews. 2. Intensify efforts to establish a suitable Masonic historical marker on the grounds of the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial (Gateway Arch Grounds) in St. Louis to mark the location of the original Lodge of Brothers Lewis and Clark. 3. Preparation of a feasibility study of placing of billboards along major interstate highways, coming into the state, containing a Masonic related message. 4. Continue efforts in obtaining a suitable booth at the State Fair to provide appropriate Masonic information to the general public. SUMMARY

The Committee held meetings on a quarterly basis in the months of November, February, May and August. In addition, Special Project Committees met frequently by call of the Chairman. Members of this Committee participated in all of the area meetings. Given this opportunity by our Grand Master, M.W Bro. ~ Vincent Kinkead, we were able to outline most of our projects to the Brethren there assembled. A packet containing the Public Relations Manual, information on suggested programs, the availability of the Missouri Masonic lapel pins and the community road signs was mailed in mid-December to all subordinate Lodges and the D.D.G.M. of each district. Demand has continued to exceed the supply of the Missouri Masonic pins. Thousands of these pins have been sold throughout this state as well as to Brethren in California, New York, Florida, Maine and GeQrgia. The slogan "Buy One For Yourself and Another For a Brother" has caught on and pins have been presented to Brethren in the Masonic Home, VA Hospitals and many who are shut-ins at home. A special thanks to R.W Bro. Roger Huffmaster D.D.G.L. - 61st Masonic District for his assistance in the design, manufacture and shipping of the community road signs. These signs are being erected throughout the state by individual Lodges and to date there are signs displayed in all but ten districts. Subcommittees in the areas of St. Louis, Kansas City, Springfield, Columbia and Bowling Green have done a tremendous job of assisting Lodges in coordinating special activities and events. 1Ypical projects include assisting in the formulation and publicizing of both public and Lodge oriented fund raisers as a Masonic

activity and promoting Masonic information booths in local and county fairs. Our plans for a Masonic information booth at the State Fair this year was set aside due to lack of appropriate space. Our thanks to the many Brethren who assisted this Committee in this project. If we do not succeed at first we will try, try again. Decals in the same design as that of the Missouri Masonic lapel pin are now available. This logo says it all "I'm Proud 1b Be a Missouri Mason." The Organ Donor Program is under the direction of a Special Project Commit路 tee. Members assigned to this committee are Richard Ramage, L. Wayne Hill, Howard Adkins and an ad hoc member, Dan Lucas, who originally proposed the program. The action plan of this program is divided into two phases and consists of several components here stated in brief. 1. Publication of an article in the Freemason Magazine informing the Brethren of the programs existence and urging them to take part. 2. Creation and publication of information sheets to answer questions which may arise during family conferences. 3. Establishment of a network of Masonic volunteers to coordinate presentations of the program in different areas of the state 4. Creation of an audiovisual presentation for use by aforesaid volunteers. PHASE II

1. Extend the program, with its network of volunteers, using audiovisual and other educational materials to other civic, social and fraternal organizations. This would both broaden support for a needed program and demonstrate to many tile value of our fraternity and its dedication to charity and caring for others. 2. Based on experience of Phase I and Phase II, revise the project as required so it can serve as a pilot program for other Grand Lodges. Our thanks to the Committee on Masonic Education and especially to M.W. Bro. J.c. Montgomery, Jr., Editor of the Freemason Magazine, for giving us space for our article in the September issue of the Freemason. Phase I is off to a good start. This committee would like to express our sincere appreciation to all of the Grand Lodge Officers and especially to our Grand Master, M.W. Bro. P. Vincent Kinkead, for the overwhelming support we received this year. Active leadership seems to be the key to progress. Although the sun did shine on us throughout most of the year there was one dark cloud that remains very strong in mind. The passing of Rt. Wor. Bro. Edwin C. Carpenter on November 22, 1986 deeply saddened members of this Committee. His presence is greatly missed by each of us. Respectfully submitted, HOWARD AKINS, NORMAN K. ATKINSON, ROBERT J. CREDE, L.

tation concerned with the Missouri Masonic Organ Donor Project. REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON MASONIC BOARDS OF RELIEF M.W Grand Master P. Vincent Kinkead asked for the Report of the Committee on Masonic Boards of Relief. The Report is as follows:

To the Most Worshtpful Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Missouri: ST. LOUIS AND ST. LOUIS COUNTY MASONIC BOARD OF RELIEF: The St. Louis and St. Louis County Masonic Board of Relief held 2 meetings during the past year. The Annual Meeting on October I, 1986 and the Semi-Annual Meeting on May 6, 1987. At the Annual Meeting on October 1,1986 it was agreed to retain the same officers for the coming year. They are: Gerald W Burnworth, 636, President (also performing the secretarial duties); James. C. Easton, 578, Vic~ President; and James H. Miller, 655, 'Ireasurer. In case of an emergency, the Board can now make up a team to perform a Masonic Funeral Service, with very short notice. We now have 50 white linen aprons, and through the generosity of West Gate Lodge No. 445, who donated a complete set of officers jewels. There were no direct requests for financial assistance during the past year. The board did donate $300.00 to the family needs of our late Brother Milton Jordan (520). A donation of $40.00 was conveyed to Mrs. Loretta Graham. The Board has been quite active during the past year. Many pieces of equipment have been loaned to many who have been disabled. The Board has been called on for several Masonic Funerals: Request by Irondale Lodge No. 143 (MO) - Service by Jennings Lodge No. 460. Request by Trowel Lodge No. 440 (MO) - Service by Lambskin Lodge No. 450. Request by Elvins Lodge No. 599 (MO) - Service by Freedom Lodge No. 636. Request by Wm. H. Upton Lodge No. 206 (WA) - Service by Ferguson No. 542. Request by Staunton Lodge No. 13, (VA) - Service by Ferguson No. 542. Request by Anthony Doherty Lodge No. 111 (lL) - Service by Forest Park Lodge No. 578. A request was had for a Masonic Service for a member of Algabil Lodge No. 544 (MOl. The Brother had lived and passed away in Arlington, 'Thxas. This occurred on a week-end when all Grand Lodge offices are closed. The Board contacted Rt. Wor. Bm Harvey C. Byrd, Grand Secretary of Thxas, at his home. Rt. Wor. Bro. Byrd contacted Arlington Lodge No. 438 (TXI, and all arrangements were made and everything handled in the most efficient manner. This was definitely Freemasonry in action. Request by St. Clair Lodge No. 24 (lL) - Service by Good Hope Lodge No. 218. Request by Belgrade Lodge No. 632 (MO) - Service by Freedom Lodge No. 636. Request by Irving Lodge No. 1218 (TXI - Service by Algabil Lodge No. 544. Request by Brentwood Lodge No. 616 (MOl for Masonic Service for a departed brother at Dexter, MO. - Service performed by Dexter Lodge No. 532. Request for a Memorial Service by Salem Lodge No. 225 (MO) - Service by Bro. Gerald W. Burnworth Through the persistence of Rt. Wor. Bro. Frank Ames Arnold, Grand Secretary Emeritus, the Board received a check for $700.00 from Waverly Lodge No. 152 (MD). This reimbursed the Board for a burial expense which was incurred in 1985. The Board has available for handicapped or disabled people several real nice wheelchairs, walkers, quad canes, and crutches. It is the policy of the Board to loan these out on a 90 day basis, but should an emergency arise, the loan can be extended for another 90 days. Due to some very unpleasant experiences, we will not permit our equipment to be taken to a nursing home or hospital.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON LIFE MEMBERSHIP R.W. Brother Dr. Gene M. Zinn presented the Report of the Special Committee on Life Membership. To the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Missouri: Your Life Membership Committee contacted fourteen grand jurisdictions for information pertaining to their life membership programs. Replies were received from twelve of these grand jurisdictions, and the response ranged from noncommittal to very positive. Your committee selected the best features of these various life membership programs and incorporated them into a resolution to add Article 22, Perpetual Membership, to the Constitution and By-Laws. Fraternally submitted. DONALD TREECE RONALD BIELBY GENE M. ZINN, Chairman RW. Brother Zinn moved that the Report of the Committee on Life Membership be received and printing in the proceedings and that the proposed addition to Article 22 of the By-Laws be received and referred to the appropriate committee for action. The motion was seconded and by vote of the Grand Lodge the report was received and the proposed addition to Article 22 was referred to the Jurisprudence Committee.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON MASONIC EDUCATION R.W. Brother John W. Siscel, Chairman, presented the report of the Committee on Masonic Education. To the Grand Lodge, A.F&A.M. of Missouri: BRETHREN: The activities of your Committee on Masonic Education have followed the achievements of the Grand Lodge Program on Masonic Education over the past twelve years with an eye toward improving our posture in three major areas. Those areas were Leadership Training, Officer Development and Marketing Development. This report to you will catalog your committee's progress in these areas. The first area, Leadership Training, is one which can only be judged as an unqualified success. Under the tutelage of WB. Thomas H. McCully, an "action team" of eight Kansas City area Brethren developed a program combining video taping and instruction coupled with feedback. I t was made so that it could be shown anywhere that had a VCR and television. The Action 'learn began their work after ten areas were delineated for study with the Committee on Masonic Education. Those areas of study are: (1) shared leadership; (2) the Action 'learn; (3) goal setting; (4) motivation; (5) time management, (6) planning for progress; (7) leadership styles; (8) the next man; (9) Communication; and (10) the Lodge and the community. The Committee on Masonic Education divided these ten areas into four years of development. Your Chairman met with the next officers in the Grand Lodge advancing line so that they knew exactly what the committee was proposing in terms of subject matter. We are most proud of the commitment of these brethren to this program. The members of the Action 'learn worked long hours to develop what is now known as "The Working Tools of Leadership I," and we all owe the following

100

brethren a debt of gratitude. They are: W.B. Thomas H. McCully, Chairman; Bro. Gary LaBranche; Bro. David Leininger II; Bro. Jim Pyland; W.B. Ron Hickey; Bro. Gary McLallen; W.B. Howard L. Adkins and Bro. Russell Bethel. This program was presented at eight seminars in the early part of 1987 in the following locations: Kansas City, Brookfield, Hannibal, Jefferson City, Houston, Joplin. St. Louis and Cape Girardeau. The success, however, of the program is in the numbers and what numbers they are, 280 lodges out of 510 were represented. A total of 750 Brethren were in attendance. Th encourage participation in this project, it was added as a requirement to the Achievement Award. The percentage of attendance for the first year cannot be overemphasized. Over 50% of our lodges availed themselves of this oportunity at Leadership Training. The key man in the Leadership Training program is the District Deputy Grand Master. As key, he has visited his lodges and has their leadership development close at heart. What have the attending Brethren said? In a written evaluation conducted at the end of each session a total of 94% said it was very much worth their time and 93% indicated their lodge would benefit. These are numbers of which anyone can be proud! The second area of development this year is Officer Development. We set, as a committee goal, the development and sale of a Lodge Officer Manual by September, 1987. That goal has been met. It has been met because of the dedication and ability of Bro. Dick Nelms, Junior Warden of Gate of the Thmple Lodge No. 422, in Springfield. This activity will be updated and revised annually and sold at the Grand Lodge Communication. Our third area of development is Marketing Development. Your committee believes that no matter how good a product you have unless you market it effectively it will not be received well. Th this end, R.W. Bro. Dick Smith was appointed to develop ways and means on a continuing basis to generate these ideas. One goal is to increase successful achievement award participation up to 50% of lodges in Missouri. Another is to significantly increase the number of ten-year award winners. The third is to generate an annual activity at Grand Lodge where Achievement Award Masters can meet and exchange ideas. Additional areas of pride include the Lodge Education Officer Program, now in its third year. LEO's continue to receive from the Committee the Short Talk Bulletin, as well as selected information additionally provided. The Achievement Award, long the bulwark and foundation of your Committee's successful program, is in its second decade of continued service to the Grand Lodge. Thgether with the Leadership Training Series and the LEO program these three form an unbeateable trio of programs for the future of our Grand Lodge. The Achievement Award program has been successful in great measure because of the leadership of R.W. Bro. Dan Cole. The Freemason magazine continues to be one of our greatest success stories. M.W. Bro. J.C. Montgomery, Jr. has this committee's unfaltering support for a magazine of the first rank. Your Committee continues to be involved positively with the Midwest Conference on Masonic Education. Your Chairman was appointed to the Program Committee, at our most recent involvement in May of 1987 at Fargo, North Dakota. Your Chairman and Brother Nelms attended with our Grand Master. Your Committee's program was highlighted at the session I quote Bro. Glenn Opp. eo-Chairman of the Ohio Committee on Masonic Education, as to the overall effect of our pro-

gram at the Conference. "I must admit that you really shook my whole thinking and 1 will leave here thinking it was all worthwhile with what you have just said. You started your presentation by allowing us to be recognized as adults, away from the framework of little children....You do not surprise me in anyway with your improvement of statistics. When you treat a man as a man you will always come out the best benefitted." Your Chairman was invited to attend the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Nebraska at Kearney as the Guest Speaker. I must tell you what a great feeling of pride I had when, on your behalf, I was able to describe our exceptional program to them. The success of a program such as this is dependent on many people. First is our exceptional Committee. Secondly, R.W. Bro. 'Ierry Alexander and his staff. In closing, and most importantly, to M.W Bro. P. Vincent Kinkead, who has been a great leader.

the PROCEEDINGS. The motion was seconded and approved by vote of the Grand Lodge. To the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. oJ Missouri: BRETHREN: Your Committee on Youth is pleased to report on its activities in support and promotion of our three Masonic Youth organizations: DeMolay, Job's Daughters, and Rainbow. The Grand Master's Masonic Youth Awards were again presented this year, with the following youth receiving the award: DeMolay - Mitchell B. Cross Job's Daughters - Gina M. Manzo Rainbow - Shelly R. Newman

The Committee continues to be impressed with the quality of the recipients of the Youth Award. With young men and women such as these involved in our Masonic Youth organizations it behooves us to lend our support to the causes of DeMolay, Rainbow, and Job's Daughters at every opportunity. Several new projects were undertaken by this year's committee: I. A section for the new Lodge Officer's Handbook (on sale at this Grand Lodge) was developed which discusses the three youth groups, suggests methods to support existing youth organizations, and describes in detail how to start a new chapter, bethel, or assembly. 2. Articles on the three youth groups are being prepared for publication in future issues of The Freemason. 3. Arrangements were made to distribute the pamphlet "Support of Our Masonic Youth" at the Grand Master's Breakfast in St. Louis. 4. Arrangements were also made to distribute the pamphlet "Freemasonry" at Grand Bethel, Grand Assembly, and State Conclave. 5. A list of assemblies, bethels, and chapters in Missouri was developed. This list, sorted by city, is to be included in the DDGM/DDGL packets for distribution at the DDGM/DDGL meeting. 6. A list of available educational loans and scholarships from the Masonic Family was also developed for inclusion in the DDGM/DDGL packets. 7. A slide program on Masonry for presentation to DeMolays is in development. This program, "Passing of the Trowel," will be modified later for general use by all three youth groups. H. Members of the Committee have arranged for a table at this Grand Lodge for members of the subordinate lodges to meet with representatives of the three youth groups to discuss how they might become involved in supporting our Masonic Youth. Sever'al items, while not implemented, are suggested for consideration by future Grand Lodge Youth Committees: I, That an "advisor procurement program" be developed which, in coordi-

nation with the Grand Secretary and lodge secretaries, would assist in obtaining advisors for the youth groups. 2. In the event that the Grand Lodge Office develops a computerized data base of members, that an inventory of members' careers and talents be included and that the youth groups be allowed access to this data base.

3. That a pamphlet on Masonry be developed for use by the youth groups. 4. That an achievement award granted by the Grand Lodge be developed that could be earned by any member of the youth groups. Such an award would be administered by the Youth Committee and could recognize service to Masonry, the community, school, etc. 5. That lodges be encouraged to appoint a "lodge youth officer," whose responsibility would be to promote the three youth groups. 6. That a pamphlet be developed that would be passed out to each Entered Apprentice. This pamphlet would describe the youth groups and advise the EA on how he could assist his children, relatives, or acquaintances in joining these groups. This year the Committee attempted to increase its working base by actually involving the youth group advisors and the young men and women who serve the youth groups as state officers. Our accomplishments would have been significantly less without the participation of those who were not actually members of the Committee. Special thanks go to Bob Cockerham, Terry Alexander, Vince Kinkead, Nick Kinkead, Jeanne Mueller, Ginny Goede, Nelda Kaeser, Ann Tisdale, Dick Holmes, Joleyne Thompson, Marcia Mueller, Raena Kraus, and others. The Committee is sorry to report that one of our members, Ronald M. Compton, passed away this year. Ron had previously served as chairman of this committee and was serving as Executive Officer of Missouri DeMolay at the time of his death. His contribution to our efforts will be sorely missed. Ron's successor on our committee and as Executive Officer is Ron Zumalt. Ron has already showed his abilities through his ideas and hard work. We know that Missouri DeMolay continues to be in capable hands. In closing the Committee would like to refer to a term coined in the program developed on leadership by the Masonic Education Committee. Our youth groups often must contend with members of lodges and other Masonic organizations who resist efforts to start or build the three organizations. We only ask that if you are one of these "Ancient Protectors," please consider the following from the script of the slide program "Passing of the Trowel" mentioned above: "You ... are the future of Masonry, and as [DeMolays, Rainbows, and Job's Daughters] you have already been exposed to, and expressed agreement with, many of the same goals and purposes lying at the foundation of Freemasonry. While [your youth groups] look to Freemasonry for [your] past, Freemasonry looks to [you] for its future. You are that future." WE!\:DELL BRL'!\:K LID!\: EL GOEDE DR. ALBERT HOWE JOH!\: WETZEL, JR.

All checks issued were examined in support of the disbursements. I found to be correct the per capita tax received and the amount paid to the Masonic Home. Approved invoices were examined for substantially all items. Payroll records and tax returns were also inspected. The bank balances shown in the report were confirmed directly by the dispositaries. The net transfer from the Agency Account of $70,000 was due to printing proceedings for three years during the current year and to decreased income. Respectfully submitted, ROBERT H. ASBURY.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE

1987

REMARKS OF MOST EXCELLENT GRAND HIGH PRIEST OF THE GRAND

CHAPTER OF ROYAL ARCH MASONS OF MISSOURI MOST EXCELLENT COMPANION RICHARD D. CARROLL REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON CHARTERED LODGES R.W. Brother Gerald W. Burnworth, Chairman, presented the Report of the Committee on Chartered Lodges as printed in the Booklet, "Reports of Officers and Committees." He moved the acceptance of the Report for printing in the PROCEEDINGS. The Motion being seconded, the Grand Lodge voted that the Report of the Committee on Chartered Lodges be accepted. To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Missouri: Your Committee on Chartered Lodges submits the following report after careful consideration of the 465 annual returns which were in the office of the Grand Secretary on August 20, 1987. There were 42 lodges whose reports had not been received at that time. They were: 14, 15, 16, 17,25,29,34,41,44,65,66,112,142,163,195,239,257,259, 278, 284, 291, 295, 324, 368, 383, 399, 411, 433, 459, 479, 486, 533, 569, 590, 598,625,626,641,645,671,673 and 674. Checking back over previous reports, we find many of the same lodges are delinquent year after year. It is the hope of this committee that the amendment to Section 10.050 in our By-Laws will be approved at this session of Grand Lodge. It is impossible for the committee to prepare a true report when all annual returns are not in the Grand Secretary's office. It is also a great inconvenience for the Grand Secretary. New Lodges: The Committee was pleased to find one new lodge has been formed during the past year. Lewis and Clark Lodge un was issued a dispensation on January 10, 1987 and set to work on January 26, 1987. This lodge meets in Bridgeton Thmple at Bridgeton, Mo. The Committee on lodges un. will give a complete report on this lodge. Consolidations: There were 512 lodges in the report last year. Since that time, the committee finds 6 lodges have consolidated with others. They are: Everton No. 405 consolidated with Washington No. 87; Chilhowee No. 487 consolidated with Corinthian No. 265; Competition No. 432 consolidated with Laclede No. 83; Rural No. 316 consolidated with Thmple No. 299; Elvins No. 599 consolidated with Ionic No. 154; and Lockwood No. 521 consolidated with Washington No. 87. Research: Some research has been made. We find 95 lodges have closed their doors since 1960. A total of 43 of these lodges have closed since 1980. Seven of the 95 lodges merely surrendered their Charter and ceased to exist. Since 1960 there have been only 8 new lodges Chartered. Membership: The reports of the 465 lodges show a total membership of 74,235 Master Masons. Seventy lodges showed a gain of 234 members. Three hundred fifteen lodges raised 818 Master Masons during the past year. Seventy-nine lodges report 140 mulitple members. Three hundred fifty-four lodges report a loss of 2,418 members. Three hundred thirty-seven lodges report 1,682 suspended for non-payment of dues. One hundred seventy six lodges reported that they did not have a committee for delinquent dues. (Section 9.160) 'IWenty-six Master Masons were suspended for failure to pass the proficiency in the Master Mason degree. Brethren, our percentage of members is getting older. Four-hundred twenty-

GRAND LODGE OF MISSOURI

two lodges report 3,858 "fifty-year" members. The pathway from the lodge room to the graveyard is still frequently traveled. During the past year 407 lodges report 2,199 deaths. Attendance: This is a problem which faces all lodges, whether they are large or small One hundred forty-seven lodges reported an attendance of ten or less. Two hundred twenty-four lodges reported attendance of eleven through twenty. This leaves only 94 lodges with above twenty in attendance. It is noted that two hundred twenty-four lodges, outside the metropolitan areas, do not send any type of notice to their members. The question arises, how do these members know what is happening in their lodges? This two hundred twentyfour lodges that do not send any type of notice to their members, represents a total of 23,477 Master Masons who do not receive any information about the activities of their lodges. This might account for much of our poor attendance. District Deputy Grand Master Reports: On August 20, there were 28 District Deputy Grand Master reports which were not in the office. They were: District 1 District 19 St. Francisville No. 588 Mendon No. 628 District 5 District 21 Cainsville No. 328 Adelphi No. 355 District 6 Platte City No. 504 McFall-Gentryville No. 125 District 22-B Ancient Craft No. 377 Westport No. 340 Grant City No. 66 District 38 Stanberry No. 109 Linn Creek No. 152 Jacoby No. 447 Macks Creek No. 433 District 8 District 41 Northwest No. 358 Fair Play No. 44 District 9 District 50 Helena No. 117 Bloomfield No. 153 District 12 Sikeston No. 310 Dawn No. 539 District 55 District 13 M t. Vernon No. 99 Jackson No. 82 Barry No. 367 Brookfield No. 86 Decatur No. 400 Marceline No. 481 Comfort No. 533 District 14 Central Crossing No. 674 Shelbina No. 228 Budgets: While checking the 479 reports which were in the office, we found 191 lodges were still not preparing a yearly budget. There were 113 lodges with expenses over their income. It is noted that many lodges have raised their dues recently in order to meet inflation costs. There were 34 lodges who did not know when the books were last audited. All the rest were very recent with their audit. Errors: The Grand Secretary sends complete step by step instructions along with the Annual Report forms. Still many reports come to the office with numerous erros. In many cases the report has to be returned to the lodge secretary for correction. All this creates additional problems and added work for several people. By following the instructions and referring to the previous year's report, many errors could be eliminated.

116

PROCEEDINGS OF THE

1987

Recommendations: The District Deputy Grand Master's Reports should be typewritten or filled in with a black ball point pen. They should be filled in with sufficient pressure to transmit through all copies. The committee recommends that all lodges send out MONTHLY MAILINGS to all the members, advising them of Stated and Special Communications, as well as any other activities of the lodge. I t appears that some of the District Deputy Grand Masters are giving their forms to the secretaries in advance of their Official Visit. The committee recommends that the District Deputy Grand Master fill out the form with the assistance of the lodge secretary. Conclusion: Your Committee on Chartered Lodges regrets that it cannot give a more favorable report. Statistics are statistics. We are pleased to read several comments by the District Deputy Grand Masters in which they tell of a certain amount of enthusiasm being displayed in several of the lodges. They also mention that several lodges have some young officers in line. Once again, the committee would ask the District Deputy Grand Masters to discuss with their lodges, Sections 10.050, 9.160, 9.050, and 7.030. Most Worshipful Grand Master, your Committee appreciates the opportunity of serving you and this Grand Lodge. We also want to extend sincere thanks to R.W. Bro. lerry C. Alexander, our most competent Grand Secretary, along with his most efficient office staff. The splendid cooperation they all give the Committee makes our duties most pleasant. Fraternally submitted, WILBUR M. DAUGHTREY, MORRIS E. CARTER, CHARLES C. LONG HOWARD J. GWINN NEAL J. DONALDSON GERALD W. BURNSWORTH, Chairman.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON JURISPRUDENCE R.W. Brother Warren R. Maichel, Chairman, presented the Report of the Committee on Jurisprudence. To the Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of the State of Missouri: Your Committee on Jurisprudence respectfully reports as follows: Dispensations We have examined the dispensations issued by Order of the Grand Master as set forth in the report of the Grand Secretary and we approve the same as within the discretion of the Grand Master. Consents, Permissions and Healing Orders We have examined the consents, permissions and healing orders pertaining to the activities and operations of the surbordinate Lodges granted by the Grand Master as set forth in the report of the Grand Secretary and we approve the same as within the discretion of the Grand Master. I move the adoption of this portion of the Committee's report. The motion was seconded and by vote of the Grand Lodge adopted. Decisions

1987

GRAND LODGE OF MISSOURI

117

1. In reply to an inquiry from the Worshipful Master of Clinton Lodge No. 548, the Grand Master ruled that the use of alcoholic beverages is not only forbidden in the Masonic Temple, but such prohibition also extends to an area near a Masonic Temple that is owned or controlled by a Masonic Lodge, Masonic Temple Association or a Masonic Building Association. (See Section 25.160 of the Grand Lodge By-Laws.)

The Committee approves this decision. 2. In response to an inquiry regarding the conferral of the degrees by Raytown Lodge No. 391 upon a candidate who, by the aid of an artificial appliance possessed and used by him, was able to conform to the necessary ceremonies, the Grand Master ruled that Section 13.100 of the Grand Lodge By-Laws clearly sanctions conferral of the degrees under those circumstances. The Committee approves this decision. 3. In reply to an inquiry from Granite Lodge No. 272, the Grand Master ruled that it would tend to impair the good of the Masonic institution or its usefulness for a lodge to participate in the sale of tickets to horse races in order to raise money for its charity or welfare fund, but it would not be improper for others to make donations to the fund of moneys raised in this way so long as the lodge was in no way involved. (See Section 28.030 of the Grand Lodge By-Laws.) The Committee approves this decision. 4. Jasper Lodge No. 398 discovered that for a number of years it had inadvertently been remitting Grand Lodge dues with respect to two deceased members. It claimed the total cumulative amount of the overpayment as an offset against its total remittance to the Grand Lodge in the year the error was discovered. The Grand Master ruled: (a) that ninety days is a reasonable period of time for the Audit Committee of the lodge appointed by each Master upon his installation in accordance with Grand Lodge By-Law 9.035 to determine any errors in the most recently filed annual return of the lodge to the Grand Lodge; (b) that, accordingly, any errors with respect to the most recently filed annual return of the lodge may be corrected if communicated to the Grand Secretary within ninety days of the installation of the Worshipful Master but that any errors could be corrected thereafter only with the permission of the Grand Master; and (c) that Jasper Lodge was not entitled to reduce its current remittance to the Grand Lodge on account of errors committed over a period of preceding years. The Committee approves this decision. I move the adoption of this portion of the Committee's report. The motion was recorded and by vote of the Grand Lodge this portion of the Report of the Committee on Jurisprudence was adopted. BY-LAW AMENDMENTS The following proposed changes to the Grand Lodge By-Laws were submitted to the 165th Annual Communication to be acted upon at this Annual Communication. 1. A proposal to amend Section 3.110 by adding thereto the following has been submitted: " Provided, that the Grand Master with the consent of any two of the other aforementioned officers may delegate to one or more such persons or organizations as he shall determine the power to spend up to $2,000 for

118

PROCEEDINGS OF THE

1987

any of the foregoing purposes without the further consent of any of the foregoing officers." Thus, the By-Law as amended would read in its entirety as follows: "Section 3.110. DISASTER RELIEF. Grand Lodge funds may be expended for relief from floods, tornadoes, enemy attack, and similar disasters on order of the Grand Master. with the consent of the Deputy Grand Master, the Senior Grand Warden, and the Junior Grand Warden. or any two of them; Provided, that the Grand Master with the consent of any two of the other aforementioned officers may delegate to one or more such persons or organizations as he shall determine the power to spend up to $2,000 for any of the foregoing purposes without the further consent of any of the foregoing officers." The proposed amendment was not accompanied by a statement of purpose as required by Section 35.020. However, since this proposed amendment was drafted by the current chairman of the Committee on Jurisprudence at the request of the current Grand Master its purpose is obvious. Disaster relief must usually, if not always, be furnished promptly. I t will frequently be difficult, if not impossible, for three of the four most senior Grand Lodge officers to personally oversee the prompt expenditure required. Accordingly the amendment would enable these officers to delegate to persons functioning at the disaster site the actual use of a limited amount of funds. These might be local Freemasons or another organization such as the Salvation Army or Red Cross or a local official, such as the sheriff. The Jurisprudence Committee approves this resolution as to form. I move its adoption. The motion was seconded and by vote of the Grand Lodge the resolution was adopted.

2. A proposal to amend Section 4.020 to read as follows has been submitted: "Section 4.020. DISTRICT DEPUTY GRAND MASTERS. The Grand Master appoints and commissions for each district a District Deputy Grand Master who must be a past or present Master of a Missouri Lodge, and a member of a lodge in the district. In the discretion of the Grand Master, districts containing twenty to thirty lodges may have one additional District Deputy Grand Master and districts containing more than thirty lodges may have two additional District Deputy Grand Masters. of equal rank with jurisdiction over separate divisions of the district. No District Deputy Grand Master may serve for more than two consecutive years." Statement of Purpose:

1b reduce the number of consecutive years that a District Deputy Grand Master may serve, from five to two. The only effect of this amendment is as set out in the Statement of Purpose. The Jurisprudence Committee approves the resolution as to form. I move its adoption. The motion was seconded and by vote of the Grand Lodge the resolution was adopted.

3. A proposal to amend Section 4.040 to read as follows has been submitted: "Section 4.040. DISTRICT DEPUTY GRAND LECTURERS. The Grand Master appoints and commissions, with the advice and consent of the Grand Lecturer. for each district. a District Deputy Grand Lecturer, who must be a past or present master of a Missouri Lodge. who is competent to teach Missouri work. and who holds a current certificate of proficiency issued by the Grand Lodge. He holds office until the next annual conununication following his appointment unless removed by the Grand

1987

GRAND LODGE OF MISSOURI

119

Master, with the advice and consent of the Grand Lecturer. A District Deputy Grand Master may hold the office of District Deputy Grand Lecturer. In the discretion of the Grand Master, with the advice and consent of the Grand Lecturer, districts containing twenty to thirty lodges may have one additional District Deputy Grand Lecturer, and districts containing more than thirty lodges may have two additional District Deputy Grand Lecturers of equal rank, with jurisdiction over separate divisions of the district." Statement of Purpose: This amendment changes the appointment of District Deputy Grand Lecturers from the Grand Lecturer to the Grand Master, and gives the Grand Master authority to appoint District Deputy Grand Lecturers and remove them from office with the advice and consent of the Grand Lecturer.

As indicated in the Statement of Purpose, this amendment would eliminate the power of the Grand Lecturer to appoint the deputies solely in his own discretion and require the joint concurrence of the Grand Master and the Grand Lecturer with respect to the appointment. The Jurisprudence Committee assumes that in the event of a deadlock between the Grand Master and the Grand Lecturer the Grand Master could make "itermim" appointments under his general power to do whatever is necessary for the welfare of the Fraternity. Since the change in the By-Laws would become effective at the close of this communication, it would initially be effective with respect to appointments to be made in 1988. The Jurisprudence Committee approves this amendment as to form. I move its adoption. The motion was seconded and after discussion by vote of the Grand Lodge the amendment was DEFEATED. 4. A proposal to amend Section 4.050(c) to read as follows has been submitted: Section 4.050: DISTRICT DEPUTY GRAND LECTURER - POWERS AND DUTIES. The District Deputy Grand Lecturer (c) Reports to the Grand Master and the Grand Lecturer thirty days prior to the annual communication, giving detailed accounts of the work done by him, with a statement of the condition of the lodges in his district with reference to work. The report is not published with the proceedings. Statement of Purpose: This amendment change requires the District Deputy Grand Lecturer to report to the Grand Master in addition to the Grand Lecturer.

The Jurisprudence Committee approves this resolution as to form. I move its adoption. The motion was seconded and by vote of the Grand Lodge the resolution was DEFEATED. 5. A proposal to amend Section 4.060 to read substantially as follows has been submitted: "Section 4.060. LODGES OF INSTRUCTION. In districts containing 40 or more Lodges the District Deputy Grand Masters and District Deputy Grand Lecturers with three other members selected by the District Deputy Grand Lecturers from three separate lodges in the district constitute a committee on Masonic Instruction. It adopts rules for its own government and may hold one or more Lodges of Instruction as deemed necessary. The District Deputy Grand Lecturers may appoint assistant instructors as they consider necessary. Lodges voluntarily participating may contribute sums necessary to pay actual expenses." Statement of Purpose: Attendance of subordinate lodge officers and members is less than 1 from each

120

PROCEEDINGS OF THE

1987

lodge and many lodges have not participated at all District Deputy Grand Lecturers deem it necessary to change the lodge rigid mode and to hold ritual schools in each lodge or temple to improve the Ritual.

The effect of this amendment would be to eliminate the requirement that in a District with 40 or more lodges, a single Lodge of Instruction be held at least once a week for at least four months each year and to provide instead that one or more Lodges of Instruction be held as deemed necessary. The proposed amendment, as read and hereby submitted by me on behalf of the Jurisprudence Committee, substitutes the words "one or more" for the word "a" in the proposal as originally submitted in order to carry out the intent to attain needed flexibility indicated in the Statement of Purpose. I move the adoption of the foregoing amendment as read and hereby submitted by me. The motion was seconded and by vote of the Grand Lodge was DEFEATED. 6. The following proposed addition to the By-Laws was tabled at the 165th Annual Communication for consideration at this Communication: Amend Article 4 by adding a new Section 4.070 to read: "The Grand Master appoints and commissions for each district a Master Mason to act as District Education Officer who shall supervise the activities of the Lodge Education Officers and of the Masonic Home information representatives of each lodge in said district." Statement of Purpose: 1b coordinate and enhance the activities of the Lodge Education Officers and Masonic Home information Representatives.

The Committee on Masonic Education has reviewed the proposal for a District Education Officer, which was tabled for action at this year's Grand Lodge, and proposes the following substitute: PROPOSED ADDITION TO SECTION 4.030 OF By..LAWS DISTRICT DEPUTY GRAND MASTER - POWERS AND DUTIES: "(h) Assists the Lodge Education Officer and Masonic Home Representative of each lodge in his district by directing, coordinating, and implementing as necessary those programs developed for the promotion of Masonic Education and the Masonic Home." Statement of Purpose: 1b coordinate and enhance the activities of the Lodge Education Officers and Masonic Home Information Representatives.

The Jurisprudence Committee approves both the original proposal and the proposed substitute as to form. The basic choices before the Grand Lodge are to: (a) Adopt the original proposal for an entirely new officer at the District level, i.e., a Masonic Education Officer; or (b) 1b instead add to the duties of the District Deputy Grand Masters the specific tasks of assisting the Lodge Education Officers and the Lodge Masonic Home Representatives, or (c) 1b reject both proposals.

For the purpose of presenting the matter for debate and a vote, I move that the proposal to add Section 4.030(h) pertaining to the duties of the District Deputy Grand Masters to the By-Laws be adopted and that the proposal to add Section

1987

GRAND LODGE OF MISSOURI

121

4.070 pertaining to District Education Officers to the By-Laws be simultaneously rejected. The motion was seconded and by vote of the Grand Lodge was adopted. 7. The following proposed addition to the By-Laws was tabled at the 165th Annual Communication for consideration at this Communication: Amend Article 5 by adding a new Section 5.192 to read: "Section 5.192. Long Range Planning. a. The Long Range Planning Committee shall consist of nine (9) members, who shall be divided into three (3) classes: (1) Class I shall be composed of the Grand Master, who shall be Chairman of the committee, the Deputy Grand Master, who shall be Vice Chairman of the committee, and the Senior Grand Warden. (2) Classes II shall be composed of the three members who shall have filled one or more of the Grand Lodge offices described in Section 2.140 other than a person then serving in any Grand Lodge office. (3) Class III shall be composed of three members of the Craft, who have never filled any Grand Lodge office described in Section 2.140. b. Each member of Class II and Class III shall serve for three (3) years, subject to the following provisions: The Grand Master elected in 1986 shall appoint one (1) member for each of the said two (2) classes for one (1) year, one (1) member for each of the said two (2) classes for two (2) years, and one (1) member for each of the said two (2) classes for three (3) years. Successors shall be appointed for terms of three (3) years, provided that when a vacancy occurs the appointment shall be an unexpired term. A vacancy shall be deemed to occur if any member of Class II or Class III shall be appointed or elected to fill any Grand Lodge office described in Section 2.140. A member of either of the said classes may be reappointed for one additional term. c. The committee is authorized to create such advisory subcommittees as it may deem necessary, the members of which may be any Master Masons belonging to Missouri lodges. Such subcommittees shall report to the Long Range Planning Committee. d. I t shall be the duty of the committee to examine all aspects of Freemasonry in Missouri from a long range perspective and to report its conclusions and recommendations to the Grand Lodge. It shall have no authority with respect to the operation of any other Grand Lodge Committee. Except as directed by the Grand Lodge, its recommendations shall be of an advisory nature and shall not be binding upon any incumbent or future Grand Master. e. The committee shall meet at least two times during each Grand Lodge year at the call of the chairman, and may be convened more than two times, if he deems it necessary. The Grand Secretary shall serve as secretary of the committee." Statement of Purpose: It is believed that the Grand Lodge like any other major organization should give careful consideration to long range planning. In particular, such planning should take into account such subjects as membership, financing, charitable and service activities and improvement of the image of the fraternity. The proposed amendment would not interfere with the ongoing operation of other Grand Lodge committees and, except to the extent that the Grand Lodge might so direct, no current Grand Master would be required to adopt the recommendation of the Long Range Planning Committee. Such recommendation would be of an advisory nature.

Certain of the Grand Lodge officers propose the following substitute for the proposed new Section 5.192 tabled for action at this year's Grand Lodge: PROPOSAL TO AMEND THE BY-LAWS OF THE GRAND LODGE BY THE ADDITION OF A NEW SECTION. "Section 5.192. Long Range Planning. a. The Long Range Planning Committee shall consist of twelve (12) members, who

122

PROCEEDINGS OF THE

1987

shall be divided into two (2) groups: 1. The Grand Master, Deputy Grand Master, Senior Grand Warden, Junior Grand Warden, Senior Grand Deacon, Junior Grand Deacon, Senior Grand Steward, Junior Grand Steward, and Senior Grand Marshal 2. Three members of the Craft who have never filled any of the Grand Lodge offices listed in Paragraph 5.192.l. b. The Grand Master shall be Chairman of the committee, and the Deputy Grand Master shall be Vice Chairman. The Grand Secretary shall serve as Secretary for the committee. c. Members of Group 2 shall be appointed by the Grand Master for a term of one year. Members of Group 2 may be reappointed for one additional term. d. The commiteee is authorized to create such advisory subcommittees as it may deem necessary, the members of which are Master Masons belonging to Missouri lodges. Such subcommittees shall report to the Long Range Planning Committee. e. It shall be the responsibility of the committee to examine all aspects of Freemasonry in Missouri from a long range perspective and report its conclusions and recommendations to the Grand Lodge, along with any proposed legislation. It shall have no authority with respect to the operation of any other Grand Lodge Committee. Except as directed by the Grand Lodge, its recommendations shall be of an advisory nature and shall not be binding upon any incumbent or future Grand Master. f. The committee shall meet at least two times during each Grand Lodge year at the call of the chairman, and may be convened more than two times, if he deems necessary." Statement of Purpose: I t is believed that the Grand Lodge like any other major organization should give careful consideration to long range planning. In particular, such planning should take into account such subjects as membership, financing, charitable and service activities, and improvement of the image of the Fraternity. The proposed amendment would not interfere with the ongoing operation of the other Grand Lodge committees, except to the extent that the Grand Lodge might so direct. Grand Masters would not be required to adopt the recommendations of the Long Range Planning Committee. Such .recommendation would be of an advisory nature.

In conjunction with the substitute proposed new Section 5.192, said Grand Lodge officers propose the following addition to the By-Laws adding to the authority of the Grand Master: Amend Section 2.010 by adding thereto the following subsection: "Section 2.010. Grand Master. (p) He develops long range goals for the Grand Lodge and actions necessary to reach such goals. He may use the Long RangE; Planning Committee and any other Grand Lodge permanent or select committees to assist him in development of such goals and plans." Statement of Purpose: This section would require Grand Masters to consider planning on a long term basis through establishment of goals and methods to reach those goals. Assistance would be available through other Grand Lodge Committees.

The Jurisprudence Committee approves both the original proposed new Section 5.192 and the proposed substitution therefor as to form and also approves the proposed new Sub-section 2.010 (p) as to form. The basic choices before the Grand Lodge are to: (a) Adopt the original proposal for a Long Range Planning Committee which consists of the three senior Grand Lodge officers plus three former senior Grand Lodge

1987

GRAND LODGE OF MISSOURI

123

officers plus three persons who have not served as senior Grand Lodge officers, the latter two classes each serving alternating three year terms when fully phased in, or (bJ To instead adopt the substitute proposal for a Long Range Planning Committee which consists of the nine Grand Lodge officers in the advancing line plus three members who have never served in the advancing line, the latter serving one year terms subject to one reappointment, or (c) 1b reject both proposals.

For the purpose of presenting the matter for debate and a vote. I move that the proposed substitute for the original proposal to add a new Section 5.192 to the By-Laws be adopted and that the original proposal to add a new Section 5.192 to the By-Laws be simultaneously rejected. The motion was seconded and by vote of the Grand Lodge adopted. 8. I move that the proposal to add Subsection 2.010 (p) to the By-Laws be adopted. The motion was seconded and by vote of the Grand Lodge adopted. 9. In order to add the newly created Long Range Planning Committee to the list of standing committees of the Grand Lodge, I hereby moved that as originally proposed at the 165th Annual Communication Section 5.010 be amended by adding thereto the words "(u) Long Range Planning" so that as amended the first sentence thereof will read as follows: "The standing committees are (a) Credentials, (b) Grand Master's Address, (c) Lodges under Dispensation, (d) Chartered Lodges, (e) Appeals and Grievances, (f) Jurisprudence, (g) Ways and Means, (h) Relief and Charity, (i) Masonic Boards of Relief, (j) Necrology, (k) Ritual, (I) Forms and Ceremonies, (m) Mileage and Per Diem, (n) Correspondence, (0) Masonic Education. (p) Building Supervisory Board, (q) Entertainment of Distinguished Guests, (r) By-Laws, (s) Grand Lodge Office Building, (t) Youth, lu) Long Range Planning:'

The motion was seconded and by vote of the Grand Lodge adopted. 10. A proposal to amend Section 10.050 to read as follows has been submitted: "Section 10.050. ANNUAL RETURNS. Each Lodge makes an annual return to the Grand Lodge as of June 30. The return is sent to the Grand Secretary on or before August 1. The return is in duplicate, contains list of the officers; of those who have been initiated, passed. raised. and affiliated; and of deaths, dimissions, suspensions, expulsions, rejections. and restorations since the last annual return with respective dates opposite each name and it is signed by the Master and Secretary under the seal. The return is forwarded with the dues required by Section 10.040 with the fees required by Section 10.020 and 10.030. A Lodge which fails to make proper returns with proper remittance is fined ten dollars ($10.00) per each week or fraction thereof of delay. Statement of Purpose: This amendment change increases the frequency of fines from monthly to weekly. It is anticipated that this change will improve the promptness of filing of the returns.

The only effect of this amendment is as set out in the Statement of Purpose. The Jurisprudence Committee approves the resolution as to form. I move its adoption. The motion was seconded and by vote of the Grand Lodge adopted. 11. A proposed amendment to Section 28.020 reading as follows has been

PROCEEDINGS OF THE

124

1987

submitted: "Amend Section 28.020. WILLFUL VIOLATION OF LAW. (Add new paragraph): A freemason convicted of a felony shall receive automatic expulsion." Statement of Purpose: The purpose of this proposed By-Law change is to relieve a lodge the expense and responsibility of a masonic trial when a freemason has been convicted of a felony, because Grand Lodge would not accept any sentence less than expulsion. The following substitute therefor has been offered: Be It Resolved that the By-Laws be amended by adding thereto a new section reading as follows: "Section 28.025. AUTOMATIC EXPULSION. A freemason who is convicted of, or who pleads guilty to, or who receives a suspended imposition of sentence for, a felony shall, upon any of the foregoing becoming final, be automatically expelled without the necessity of a Masonic trial.

It shall be the duty of the secretary of each lodge to report to the Grand Master any member of the lodge to whom the foregoing applies. The Grand Master shall effect the expulsion of any member to whom the foregoing applies regardless of how he becomes aware thereof." The Jurisprudence Committee believes these proposals require further study because of various technical questions involved and therefore does not offer them for consideration at this time. 12. A resolution to amend by adding a proposed Article 22 entitled Perpetual Membership to both the Constitution and the By-Laws, has been received. It appears that this should properly be regarded as a proposed amendment to the ByLaws and thus could be considered at this Communication. The Jurisprudence Committee will not offer it for consideration at this time. The amendment is quite lengthy, consisting of three single spaced typewritten pages. Therefore the Brethren should have an opportunity to see the amendment in print and the Jurisprudence Committee requires greater time for study. No Statement of Purpose accompanied the copy which was furnished to the Jurisprudence Committee. 13. A proposal to amend the By-Laws by adding thereto a new Section 3.035 providing for an Endowment Fund reading as follows has been proposed: "Section 3.035. ENDOWMENT FUND. The Endowment Fund consists of all gifts and bequests designated as made to it by the donor or testator and such assets as may be added to it by order of the Grand Lodge. The purpose of the Endowment Fund is to assure the financial stability of the Grand Lodge regardless of changing business conditions. No part of the principal of the Endowment Fund may be expended for any purpose. The income of the Endowment Fund accrues to the General Fund. Statement of Purpose: The purpose is to provide for a fund, the principal of which can never be spent, so that the income thereof will be available to the Grand Lodge in perpetuity. It is believed that donations and bequests can be attracted to such a fund which might otherwise not be made to the Grand Lodge at all. It is also proposed that a conforming amendment be made to Section 3.010 by adding the words: "(4) the Endowment Fund."

The Jurisprudence Committee approves the proposed amendment as to form.

1987

GRAND LODGE OF MISSOURI

125

I move the simultaneous adoption of new Section 3.035 and the conforming amendment to Section 3.010. The motion was seconded and by vote of the Grand Lodge the amendments were adopted.

14. A proposal to amend the By-Laws by adding thereto a new Section 5.193 providing for a Public Relations Committee as a standing committee has been proposed. Said proposal was accompanied by amendments which among other things would amend the By-Laws to cause said Committee to be entitled to mileage and per diem. Although the proposal to add a new Section 5.193 is technically a proposal to add an additional section which might be adopted at this Communication by twothirds vote: In the opinion of the Jurisprudence Committee: (a) Said proposal has various technical flaws which must be considered and addressed after an opportunity for reflection so that the Committee can offer changes for additions which deal with such flaws and, (b) The accompanying changes dealing with entitlement to mileage and per diem are amendments rather than additions. Therefore, the Committee on Jurisprudence declines to present the proposals.

RESOLUTIONS 1. The following resolution has been submitted in writing:

Be It Resolved, That the following Resolution adopted in 1869 at page 102 of the Proceedings, be abolished as a Standing Resolution:

WORK AND LECTURES ADOPTED The work and lectures as exemplified by the Grand Lecturer are adopted as the work and lectures of the Grand Lodge, Res. 1869, 102. Statement of Purpose: The Proceedings of 1869 set out that there was confusion between various areas of the State of Missouri between the District Deputy Grand Master and District Deputy Grand Lecturer systems, and in order to resolve this conflict at that time, adopted the above Resolution and required that it be practiced in every subordinate Lodge in an effort to standardize the ritual The above Resolution is subject to misinterpretation and was designed to resolve a local problem over 100 years ago.

The Jurisprudence Committee approves this resolution as to form and I move its adoption. The motion was seconded and by vote of the Grand Lodge the resolution was DEFEATED. 2. The following resolution has been submitted: Be it Resolved that all profits now on hand and hereafter received from the sale of Commemorative coins be added to the Endowment Fund.

The Jurisprudence Committee approves the resolution as to form and I move its adoption. The motion was seconded and by vote of the Grand Lodge the resolution was adopted. Respectfully submitted,

the PROCEEDINGS. The motion was seconded and by vote of the Grand Lodge the Report of the COmmittee on Recognition of Foreign Grand Lodges with recommendations was adopted. To the Grand Lodge, A ..F. & A.M. of Missouri: BRETHREN: In 1952 the Conference of Grand Masters of Masons in North America provided for a Commission of Information for Recognition, whose duty should be to assemble the information necessary for the Officers and Members of Grand Lodges to intelligently consider the applications for recognition by Grand Lodges from all over the world. The standards for recognition laid down by the Commission - guidelines which indicate whether or not the applying Grand Lodge is "regular" and therefore worthy of recognition - are: 1. Legitimacy of origin; 2. Exclusive territorial jurisdiction; 3. Adherence to the ancient landmarks, specifically a belief in God, the Volume of the Sacred Law as an indispensable part of the furniture, and the prohibition of politics and religion. The Committee on Recognition of Foreign Grand Lodges has relied on the advice written in the Annual Report of the Commission when considering the requests for the establishment of fraternal relations and the consequent exchange of Grand Representatives. The Grand Lodge of Missouri has received requests for recognition from Grand Lodges of other countries. GRAND ORIENT D'HAITI (GRAND ORIENT OF HAITI)

The Grand Orient of Haiti of 1824 now consists of 36 lodges with over 2,000 members. The Grand Orient is a member of the Inter-American Masonic Confederation and maintains good fraternal relations with 56 Grand Lodges, including the Grand Lodge of New York. The correspondence of request for recognition contains the relevant points of the Constitution of the Grand Orient of Haiti, which conform to the standards set by the Grand Masters Conference Commission. The Committee on Recognition of Foreign Grand Lodges recommends that recognition be extended to the Grand Orient of Haiti (Grand Orient D'Haiti) and that the incoming Grand Master proceed with the exchange of Grand Representatives. GRAND LOJA DO ESTADO DO RIO GRANDE DO NORTE (GRAND LODGE OF THE STATE OF RIO GRANDE DO NORTE - BRAZIL)

The Grand Lodge of the State of Rio Grande do Norte, founded on June 23, 1974, is a regular member of the recognized Confederation of Symbolic Grand Lodges in Brazil. The "Declaration of Principles," transmitted with the communication of the Grand Secretary of Foreign Relations offering the exchange of Grand Representatives and the reciprocal recognition as a Regular Masonic Power, complies with the guidelines of the Grand Masters Conference Commission. The Grand Lodge of Missouri having recognized many of the State Grand Lodges of Brazil, the Committee on Recognition of Foreign Grand Lodges recommends that recognition be extended to the Grand Lodge of the State of Rio Grande do Norte (Brazil) and that the incoming Grand Master proceed with the exchange of Grand Representatives.

GRANDE LOJA DO ESTADO DO CEARA (GRAND LODGE OF THE STATE OF CEARA - BRAZIL)

Marcus Venicius Monteiro de Silva, 2nd Grande Vigilante (Junior Grand Warden), forwarded the recommendation of the Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Ceara that Brother Gilson Da Costa Moreira be appointed Grand Representative of the Grand Lodge of Missouri near the Grand Lodge of Ceara The Grand Lodge of Missouri granted recognition of the Grand Lodge of Ceara at the Annual Communication held in September 1955; notification of the action taken was written to the Grand Secretary of Ceara on March 20, 1956. However, research of appropriate records has revealed no recommendations and no appointments by Grand Masters of the two Grand Lodges prior to that dated February 4, 1987. The means having been properly established in 1955 for the exchange of Grand Representatives, Most Worshipful Grand Master P. Vincent Kinkead accepted the recommendation of the Grand Master of Ceara and appointed Brother Gilson Da Costa Moreira as Grand Representative of the Grand Lodge of Missouri near the Grand Lodge of the State of Ceara (Brazil).

OTHER BRAZILIAN STATE GRAND LODGES

The Commission on Information for Recognition of the Conference of the Grand Masters of Masons in North America considers twenty-five (25) State Grand Lodges of Brazil to be "regular" and worthy of recognition, with the consequent exchange of Grand Representatives. In order that the matter of recognized fraternal relations with the State Grand Lodges of Brazil may be accurate and complete, the Committee on Recognition of Foreign Grand Lodges recommends that the Grand Lodge of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons of the State of Missouri, assembled in the 166th Annual Communication (September 1987), take the action of recognition of the following Grand Lodges: Grande Grande Grande Grande Grande

Loja Loja Loja Loja Loja

The Grand Lodge of Missouri received the announcement of the formation of the National Grand Lodge of Greece and the petition for recognition. The Grand Lodge of Missouri, by the vote of the delegates at the 129th Annual Communication (September 1950), granted recognition to the Grand Lodge of Greece with the understanding that said Grand Lodge held "exclusive territorial jurisdiction:' We have read in the announcement and petition correspondence that both the recognized Grand Lodge of Greece and the newly formed National Grand Lodge of Greece exercise jurisdiction over Masons and Lodges.

The Committee on Recognition of Foreign Grand Lodges recommends that for tt'le time being the Grand Lodge of Missouri continue its recognition of the Grand Lodge of Greece and that no action be taken on the petition of the newly formed National Grand Lodge of Greece for recognition. 2. Grand Lodge of Colombia at Bogata - Grand Lodge Central of Colombia. The Grand Lodge of Missouri has received information relative to conflicts on the authority over the Craft degrees involving the two Colombian Grand Lodges. By vote of the delegates in attendance at the 1955 Annual Communication, the Grand Lodge of Missouri granted recognition to the Grand Lodge National of Colombia seated at Barranquilla, the Grand Lodge of Colombia seated at Bogota, and the Grand Lodge National of Colombia at Cartagena The Committee on Recognition of Foreign Grand Lodges recommends that the Grand Lodge of Missouri continue its fraternal relations with the three recognized Colombian Grand Lodges and that no consideration be given to any authority over the Craft degrees by the Grand Lodge Central of Colombia. GRANDE ORIENTE D'ITALIA (GRAND ORIENT OF ITALY)

The Grand Masters Conference Commission on Information for Recognition has covered the seriously disruptive situations and the confusions extant in the Grand Orient of Italy in the Annual report for a number of recent years: 1977路79, 1985路87. Because of the troubled and disturbed conditions, the Commission has recommended the withdrawal of recognition of the Grand Orient of I taly by the member Grand Lodges of the Grand Masters Conference. Six constituent Italian Lodges are English-speaking, the memberships composed largely of American citizens residing in Aviano, Naples, Rome, San Vito Del Normanni, Vicenza Several of the Grand Lodges of the United States have withdrawn recognition of the Grand Orient of I taly; however, all of the European Grand Lodges, including those of England and Ireland and Scotland, remain in good fraternal relations with the Grand Orient of Italy. The Committee on Recognition of Foreign Grand Lodges recommends that the proposition of withdrawal of recognition of the Grand Orient of Italy be tabled for action at the 167th Annual Communication of the Grand Lodge of Missouri to be held in September, 1988. Fraternally submitted, JAMES M. WILLIAMS, HERMAN A. ORLICK, P.G.M., FRANK AMES ARNOLD, Chairman.

GRAND LODGE OF MISSOURI

BRETHREN: Appropriately, the American people are presently celebrating the Bicentennial of the founding of Our Great Nation and the success of the great experiment of self-government. The beliefs of our Founding Fathers in Freedom from tyranny of a centralized government was so great that they boldly declared their independence and by revolution fought to defend their Freedom, not alone for themselves but for all future generations of Americans. The formation of the Confederation of States which followed, though devoid of tyranny, was also devoid of the strength inherent in a centralized government. Weaknesses of the Confederacy led to the great philosophical debate by the Constitutional Convention as to whether government should eminate from those w;ho govern or from those who are to be governed. The ultimate result was the Constitution of the United States, a document simplistic in form, but complex in substance; unique by what it says, but even more unique by what it does not say. Thus, the concept of Freedom, so essential to human dignity, as conceived in the minds of our Founding Fathers, was established on September 17, 1787. After 200 years, it is ironic that the youngest nation should have the oldest written constitution. This story is not new; it is or at least should be known to every school child in America. However, the Industrial Revolution, a product of the free enterprise system so much a part of Our American Heritage, has been replaced by the Information Revolution. The consequent inundation with information, requiring a ready need for disposition in a fast-moving technological society, sometimes permits our established principles and values to fade from sight. The principles of Freemasonry are as inseparable from the principles to those found in the Constitution of the United States as the sunshine is from the sun. It should come as no surprise to anyone, not informed of the fact, that George Washington, heroic in the Revolution, instrumental in forming a Constitutional Government, and serving as the Nation's First President, was an ardent practitioner of Freemasonry. Engrained in the principles of Freemasonry and Our American Heritage is the responsibility to carefully preserve and bequeath by loud and frequent extollment to each generation the true meaning of Our American Heritage and the need to be as a watchman in the night, constantly guarding it alertly with our very lives. It is, therefore, underrstandable that Freemasons, a Fraternity engaged in speculative masonry veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols, would engage in operative masonry to build the largest Masonic monument on the North American Continent to honor George Washington. It stands on Shooter's Hill overlooking Alexandria, Virginia, where some of the original thoughts surrounding the concept of Freedom and self-government were conceived and reduced to notes in such places as Gadby's Tavern, a bed-and-board type establishment. The Memorial is representative of all that is synonymous in the sacred principles of Our American Heritage and in the principles of Freemasonry. May this Monument ever stand as a visible reminder to all Freemasons, and all Americans who would come to visit and enjoy it, that human dignity can only exist in a free society through a successful system of self-government. As Missouri Masons, we can stand proud in our support of this great edifice. The Grand Lodge of Missouri is among the many Masonic jurisdictions which have adopted the plan of contributing $5 per initiate to support the Memorial. During the last year, two more Grand Lodges of Sister Jurisdictions joined in the adoption of the plan, leaving only eight Grand Lodges which have not yet

132

done so. The cost of maintaining and improving such a valuable Monument is substantial. During the last year alone, over $214,000 was spent in various improvement programs. Th illustrate the high cost, over $125,000 was spent for badly needed repairs in plastering and painting the ceiling of the beautiful auditorium located in the Memorial. This was only the first phase of renovating the auditorium. Seven rear windows in the auditorium, originally donated by the Grand Lodges of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Delaware, and the Grand Commendary of Virginia, were replaced by these same donors at a total cost of $21,000. The Board of Directors have initiated various programs to raise funds to meet the high cost of maintaining and improving the Memorial. One was a Caribbean cruise, which produced $20,000. A number of such cruises have been planned for the same purpose, which will be on a regional basis to maximize the opportunity for Freemasons, their families and friends, to enjoy the cruises and at the same time benefit the Memorial. The Chairman of your committee has just retired from a three-year term on the Board of Directors of the Memorial. Although all Grand Masters, and many members of the Missouri craft have visited the Memorial, the experience of serving on the Board of Directors has brought a deeper understanding and appreciation for the reason that the Memorial exists. It is also hoped that all who may read this report may receive a new insight into the importance of supporting this greatest Masonic Monument on the North American Continent. Inquiries concerning the various cruises, and Memorial contributions, whether annual sustaining pledges, or periodic memorials to loved ones, can be sent to The George Washington Masonic National Memorial Association, P.D.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON WAYS AND MEANS RW. Brother John E. Wetzel, Chairman presented the Report of the Committee on Ways and Means: The budget for the year October 15. 1987-0ctober 14. 1988. Comments of R.W. Bro. John E. Wetzel, Chairman: "First of all I do not wish to come across to you in any manner suggesting that we are in any way letting you think that we are the long. strong arm of the law or the judicial or administrative position at all. But we want to remind you that this committee has been charged to fulfill certain duties and we find it increasingly more difficult to discharge those duties due to certain circumstances. I'm merely pointing out a few of the problems that we have and offering some recommendations. They are recommendations. mind you. I hope you take them that way. I would direct my remarks perhaps more directly to certain individuals or committees that have budgeted amounts of money to expend, Now. the first thing that we find is as all those we are well aware there are certain provisions that have been provided for the use

of funds and the - - actually the overrun of some of the accounts is provided for but this committee feels that there --. Perhaps I could sum it up with one word - - Communication. We need to have better communication with all the committees! Now, we do not fault, certainly we don't fault the various projects that are in process now and I understand some that are coming up; they have been devised with good intent and to my knowledge as of now have been quite successful. They certainly have benefitted Masonry to no end. The problem is this! This committee has "X" number of dollars that's available to us to allocate for budgeting purposes and we must be informed in advance of what your project - - if you had something in mind you wanted to do with the approval of the Grand Master and the Grand Lodge to proceed with, we must also be brought into your confidence. We're not necessarily asking to be put in - - in the position that we want to approve what you're going to do. Here again I want to emphasize this is not what our problem is. The problem is we need to know how much money you intend to spend because if you don't tell us one of these days you're going to find yourself out in left field. Because, unless the Grand Master sees fit to remove me from this committee or some disaster befalls me, I intend to be on this committee one more year and if we don't get your attention this morning, I can assure you, come budget time next year, we'll get your attention! The first thing that we find is we're operating under perhaps, an antiquated bookkeeping system and in regard to that we have asked our accountant, Robert H. Asbury, to meet with this committee and perhaps make some suggestions how we might improve this system. With your permission (Grand Master) I will read the letter that I received from him. September 18, 1987 Mr. John Wetzel 116 N. 4th St. Louisiana, MO 63353 Dear Mr. Wetzel: The accounting method now used at the Grand Lodge is a single entry system. This cannot provide even the basic elements of control. In effect, the receipts and disbursements are formally accounted for only at the time of the annual audit. I would strongly suggest a double entry accounting system be installed This would not require additional personnel or equipment. After the new system is in place, further refinements can be accomplished concerning reports, internal control and budgeting. The annual audit report lists a number of "Funds': I would suggest that these "Funds" namely, Masonic Home Institution Fund, the George Washington Memorial Fund, Freemason Magazine and the Revolving Fund be included in the General Fund for reporting and budget purposes. The Freemason Magazine and Revolving Fund have separate bank accounts which could be closed. After this change there would be: General Fund Investment Funds General Permanent Disaster & Relief Fund Joseph S. Mcintyre Library Fund Recently there has been a Masonic Scholarship Fund established If need be there could be an Endowment Fund for special restrictive bequests. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me. Yours very truly, Robert H. Asbury I would strongly recommend that we follow his suggestions in making these changes. I have been assured by our Grand Secretary that with the assistance and perhaps guidance of our auditor and one of our committee members, R.W. Bro. Paul Thbias, has offered his assistance - - the Grand Secretary assured me there would be no problem in doing these things. Now you can see that the bookkeeping system that we h.we been operating under

PROCEEDINGS OF THE

134

1987

- - the inadvertent omission of perhaps contacting this committee before the fact as opposed to after the fact on spending money - - we have found it not only increasingly difficult, but actually impossible to even monitor our funds, much less control them. So, we have made a few suggestions, along which I might add that the Endowment Fund which has already been presented and I don't believe Bro. Warren expressed the difference between the Endowment and the Permanent. If he did I missed it. The Permanent Fund - the principal can be used as well as the interest or the income from it. The Endowment Fund differs from it in that the principal can never be used. This is hopeful that one day the income from this Endowment Fund will be such that we will not have the need for a per capita tax increase." R.W. Bro. Wetzel compared membership numbers and income; he pointed out the need for restraint in spending. Also, he noted that the idea for the profit of the sale of commemorative coins as the nucleus of the Endowment Fund was the idea of R.W. Bra. Stanton T. Brown. R.W. Bro. Wentzel continued: "We strongly recommend that you Committee Chairmen please be advised that we're not trying to be a - - taking the authority of any kind, whatso-ever, we merely wish to discharge those duties which we've been charged with and this has to be a group effort - we have to be totally committed Everybody must work together and if you'll just come to this committee prior to your projects and let us know what you have in mind, not necessarily what you want to do - that's not our bailiwick to say whether it's a good or bad project; we just want to know what it's going to cost and see if we can work it into the budget." 1b The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge, A. F: & A. M. of Missouri:

BRETHREN: The Ways and Means Committee met on the following dates: January 24 and November 22, 1986 and August 8, September 13 and 27, 1987.

Each degree must be conferred in its entirety at the same communication. The master shall be responsible for causing inquiry to be made of the candidate whether he has any physical condition requiring any caution or care in conferring the degrees. (Amended 1977-75) The Second Section of the Third Degree constitutes a most solemn and impressive portion of our ritualistic work. In it we are taught the ultimate lessons of Masonic philosophy - victory over death and the immortality of the soul. Nothing must be allowed to impair the deep impression which should be made upon the mind of the candidate. The Grand Lodge forbids any levity, roughness, horseplay, talking, audible laughter, or any other noise which could distract the attention of the candidate. Failure to comply with this resolution, or any action by any officer or member in violation or inconsistent with this resolution, shall constitute grounds for Masonic discipline. (Res. 1976-146) Statement of Purpose: The purpose of this proposed by-law change is to delete the requirement of the master or acting master of each lodge to read aloud the paragraph pertaining to the Second Section of the Third Degree.
