Masons
Class Of 500.

Committees have been named among
the members of the Masonic frater-
nifty who are soldiers at Camp Lee
to consider a suitable place at which
TO have convocation for giving the
Consistory and the Shrine to a class
of at least 500 soldiers. Last week
a meeting was held at the athletic
field at Camp Lee. under arrange
ments made by Major Eccies- AT this
meeting II was decided that the Blue
Lodge Masons who are in the army
would be willing to pay as much as
$50 for the entire work. This is much
less than the usual dues. OF course,
but would be fair average of the
dues charged soldiers for other de-
grees
A number OF places were considered
at which the convocation might be
held. Richmond, Washington, Alex
andria. Pittsburg. Philadelphia and
New York were among those discussed.
II was generally considered however
that Richmond. owing to its location
In regard to Camp Lee. and It's hotel
accommodations. would be preferable,
with Alexandria the second choice.
Represe natives from various sections
were named as committees to get in
formation from their home town
lodges. and will report at a meeting
to be held nj another date. The time
Of this meeting will be announced
through the columns of this paper
when Major Eccies finds arrangements

The German Ritual.


Grand Sire Cloudy has issued cirou-
lar letter No. 2, asking that all lodges
conducting their proceedings in the
German language voluntarily sur
render the privilege heretofore grant
ed to them and in the future to con-
duct all their work in the English Lam
guage as the language OF his coun-
try.
A large number of lodges have al
ready taken this step. or the thirteen
lodges in Chicago which formerly
used the German language. eight have
already voluntarily discontinued it's
use. while some OF the lodges have
not only discontinued the use OF the
German language hut have changed
the German names Of such lodges At
a recent meeting OF Koerner lodge. of
Rochester a resolution was adopted
changing the constitution and work OF
the lodge from the German to the
English language in accordance with
the request OF the grand sire.
Grand Sir Cloudy says:
My Investigations on this subject.
and the reports l have received, con-
vince me that. besides the question Of
patriotism involved. this change will
be very helpful to these lodges and win
add materially to their growth and
prosperity.
Il am convinced that loyalty to our
respective governments and good faith
with our boys who have gone across
the waters to lay down their lives, II
need be. for the perpetuation Of those
principles OF civil. religious and in
dustrial liberty which have made pos
sible the great self-governing nations
in which Odd Fellowship and kindred
fraternal organizations have 30 won
derfuily grown and prospered, re-
quires this step.
4 shall be very proud and happy
Ii am able to report to the sovereign
grand lodge next September that all
OF our lodges which have been work
ing in the German language have
voluntarily relinQuished that privilege.

working in any other foreign language
should do the same
