tinguiShed themselves as servants
Of the Most High God.
Before the Roman armies had
conquered the region in which the
German Confederation has been
formed. the Druils on St John 5 day
assembled, cladin white aprons, and
white gloves Of lambs skin, and cut
the sacred evergreen with golden
knife, keeping it sacred to Bladder
THEIR God of Light But we as
Free and Accepted Masoas are we'll
informed why those who were en-
lightened in ancient times did these
things, and also why we worship the
TRUE LIGuT.
Human nature consists in social
elements that find their highest
sphere blended and wrought out
through the medium Of associated
action, for good and benevolent pur-
poses. Any organization based
upon elements as indeStructable as
man $ nature must be asenduring as
fhe nature of man The principles
of Free and Accepted Masonrybeing
built upon such foundation, readi-
ly adapting itself to all the exigen-
cies of human life, answers every con-
dition of this argument. Untouched
by the ravagcs of time, Masonry
emerges out of the past, living and
mighty Order. 1t is not sectional
nor yet national. but universal. -
Like christianity it came from the
East, and spread throughout the
world. Its brotherhood numbers
those of every nation under the cam
opy Of heaven. Yet we violate our
principles if We offer any urgent en-
treaty, for any person to become
Mason. He who seeks admission
into the Sanctuary Of Masonry, must
come of his own free will and accord.
Should the institution of Free
masonry fail, there would be void
never to be filled. There is 10 other
institution to take its place. There
can no more be two systems of Ma
sonry, than of Mathematics. All
other societies attempting to build
themselves up by leaning against the
superstructure of Freemasonry, are
but mere attachments to the body of
a venerable edifce. Whilst they
crumble and fall as a thirst for
light and knowledge pervades .socie-
ty, the Ancient Masonic Edifice still
stands in its, gigantic proportions,
as firm as the day its checkered
pavement was spread, or it's jewels
were set up at the angles. Within

SHERMAN, blazing in FURNISHED
gold, and he who would enter there
must needs see unspeakable things
as was the case in that Temple which
represented all the truths Of heaven
and earth. Z,
