Fifty Years
of Masonry
Chapter 80.

Chapter 49,
The appointment of the Grand
Lodge to hold its meeting of 1912 in
the city of Lincoln, Nebraska, offered
a fine pleasure outing as well as a
business occupation to the large mum.
Der OF representatives who attended
Brother Richard Young, master Of the
local lodge, was in charge of the en-.
tertainment end of the meeting and
proved to be a great success in that
capacity.
Richard Young is one of the finest
examples Of that high order of Ma
sonry and citizenship which maintains
the dignity of the craft and the honor
of the race He is open, frank, posi-.
tive and honest in all things and ell
joys the confidence and esteem OF
both races in the city Of Lincoln.

the previous annual communication.
Among other things he had gone

Masters at least once during the three
years tenure, and had been wined and
dined by the hospitable brethren of
the Rockies and the Pacific. Observa-
tions upon these visits led to some
very practical suggestions to the
brethren along general lines and a
very bright picture was presented.
showing the Masonic and material
prosperity existing among the brethren
of the west.
Indebtedness upon the Masonic
Home had been reduced and the lodges
of Kansas City had given a big joint
entertainment which netted a neat
sum for the benefit of the institution
While foreign relations we're in good
shape there were still some specks

embarrassment to the Grand Master

be discussed by the historian, but may
be referred to and remembered by

nished an arena for some sharp action
among the Grand Lodge jurists and
brought forth some classic utterances
from the committee on complaints
formed ostly of lawyers. In all we'll
regulated bodies soothing must happen
once in a while in order to keep the
members sharpened up. If things
move along in al even tenor all the
time there is apt to be produced d
state of lethargy and inaction which
forbodes evil. The two cases referred
to gave an outlet for the pent up ener-
giles of the brethren and the judicious
manner in which each was settled
shows that the wisdom of many is far
safer than the wisdom of one. In the
settlement of the Stevens EAST the
action of the Grand Lodge was some,
what drastic but it placed the body
squarely upon record as opposed to all
forms of dishonesty and perhaps
Stevens was made to pay the penalty
of other offenders along with his own
The Eastern Star controversy hav-
ing died out through the friendly of
fees of the Grand Lodge, the Scot
fish Rites brethren had brought their
troubles to the parent body for review
and Indication. That is ,one faction
had come forward and had asked that
the other be put out of business. That
was the amer in which the Eastern
Star agitation had started and the
Grand Lodge, ever o~bliging, promptly
granted the request without spending
much time celebrating upon the equi'
ties in the controversy. 1t was a sort
of ASK first and We shall receive
policy just as the biggest piece of pie
is dealt out among a long of clamorous
youngsters. Both cases are now set,
tied whether they were settled right
or not and all the Masonic family in
Missouri is at least quiet and tranquil.

rivalries in these factions as more
due to the ambitions of opposing lead
ers than to matters Of legitimate
rights and in order to settle such con
tests it were perhaps as well to put
the weaker out of its misery by swift
d~ecapitation and allow the mo"2 'u&.y
a better chance to grow.
During the session a resolution was
offered by Brother HEREFORD and
passed that ffty-dollar scholarship be
annually maintained for the benefit
of the daughter of any deceased
Mason. This benefit, strangely
enough, has seldom if aver been
claimed.
IT. should be said here that the vote
of the Grand Lodge which elevated
Geo. w. K. Love to the office of Grand
Secretary was amply justified in the
lne order of service which he render
ed. He brought the affairs of the gen
eral department under the most per
feet system and in this way increased
the actual revenue of the Grand Lodge
