they perform more unNasonically than the same number of NIasons do many times in their lives. but when a fellow gets a red fez atop his head piece he has sort of hoisted a signal for all the world to take a look at what he is doing.
 Therefore. and because member ship in the Order of the Mystic Shrine is limited to York and Scot tish Rite Masons, we must maiuta in the traditions of Masonry in our con tact with the outside world.
 Shrinedom is just a place for York Rite and Scottish Rite Nasons to relax after receiving the solemn and very sacred assignment to world duty imposed by either Of those bodies. After man comes through either Of those rites he is apt to step around the world for a few months making a much noise as a cat on a Brussels carpet He is attending q funeral within his brain and soul. and he is buryfng a lot of habits and prgCon- ceived notions. The shrine is there to help him back to normalcy-that is all.
 In other respects Shriuedom ren- ders a most valuable aid to Masonry One of them is its breaking down of the social barriers, and the doing away with the formality of iutruduC- tions between Shriners. A Shriner Is a Shriner anywhere. and all the time.

Every detail for mal- ing of the celebration an occasion to be long remembered is being worked out. Recorder H. B.

with 4o5 members. and a treasury that was useful in name only.
 How Medinah Temple ever got out to Atcliison. Kansas, or why the boys at New Haven. Connecticut. ever let them move Mohammed Tempe to Peoria. Illinois. we know not. But the record seems to show that those temples were once upon time living elsewhere than at Chicago and Pe- oria. Maybe 1t is a misprint in the records, as where the historians of the order in one place credits Past Imperial Potentate Alderman to Al Nader Temple of Portland. If he ever belonged with that bunch he got away before he was elected Imperial Potentate. Incidentally that record is as near as Al Nader ever come to have a Noble in the Imperial line.
 Since the organization of the Im- perial Council in June. 1876, it has elected 90 Imperial Potentates. of whom II have died. IS are Past Im- perial Potentates, and one, the pres- ept incumbent, is on his way.
 The oldest living Past Imperial Potentate. in point of service, is Noble William B. Melish of Syrian Temple. Cincinnati. Ohio. who was elected in August, 1892, and again in
  next oldest i Harrison Dingman, elected in 1S9c, the next Albert B. McGaffey, elected in 1897.
 Great Temples
 One hundred and thirty-seven of the temples are located in the United States. in Canada. and one each in Canal Zone. Hawaii, Nova Scotia and City of Mexico.
 The five largest temples. on Jan uary 1, 1921, were: AIedinah. Chicago. with 19S16 members; Syria. Pitts burg, 14,747 members: Lu Lu, Phila- delphia, with 14.024 members; Alep- DO, Boston, 11,50S members: Mecca, New York, with 10,291 members.
 The five smallest temples were Anezeh. City Of Mexico with. S5I members: lillian. Ashland. Oregon, 47g members: Luxor. St. John. N. E.. 49O members; Aloha, Honolulu. 534 members; and Philae. Halifax, V. S.. with 574 members.
 There are IS temples with less than OO0 members each.
 The four oldest temples arc: Mecca. New York, founded in Sep tembev. 1872; Damascus. Rochester. N. Y, June 1876: Mount Sinai, Mont pelier. vt. October. 1876. and Al Ko- ran. Cleveland. Ohio. November, 1876.
 The oldest Shriner in years Of membership is Noble James oGee. who has been member of Mecca Temple since 1872. He is an Emeritus member of the Imperial Council and is the only one living of the original founders of Mecca Temple.
 Amongst the Past Imperial Poten- tates. Noble Albert B. AfcGaffev holds the record for attendance. as he has not missed an Imperial Council ses- sion in 31 years.
 Noble William F. Nelish is the only living Past Imperial Poteutat0 that has served more than one term, he having served two.

PLANS FOR RELIEF IF WIDOWS GIVEN
 WITH FULL DETAIL

Fl Zaribah temple has organized a widows benefit fund for the purpose of handing a sum of money to the beneficiary in the case of the death of a Noble
 This is an emergency fund and is paid on the notice of q death without the formaity of red tape and at the time when most needed. There are no delays occasioned by administer ing on an estate or getting @ court order to secure funds sufficient to de- fray immediate expenses. No waiting for the insurance company to settle. This plan obviates these delays and the money is paid at once to the bene- ficiary. The plan is fully explained in the following sections:
 Section 1. 4 benefit fund is created under the auspices of this temple, to which all Nobles under 60 years of ,age, in good health and in good stand ing in Fl Zaribah temple, are eligible to membership.
 Sec. 2, A Noble becoming a mem bcr Of the benefit fund shall pay S2.20 and shall fill out an application desig- mating the beneficiary of the fund. | Upon the death of q member each member of the fund shall pay S1-10.
 Sec. 8 All assessments must be paid within 30 days from date of call, and members Of the fund not paying within that time shall be droppe

Shrine Mobility Has Commanding Place in
 World Of Fraternity

With 456,968 Nobles on the roster on January l, 1921 the Ancient Arabic Order Nobles of the Mystic Shrine takes commanding position among the frater- nal stars, and its devotees may we'll hold their heads
 little higher because of its tremendous accomplishments in relation to its sef-appointed task of making the way of life to bloom with happiness.
 Since that year 1876, which witnessed the Phila- dephia Centennial the robbery of the Saltwater Mnn Bank by the Younger brothers and the organization of the Imperial Council of the Ancient Arabic Order Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, twelve months cycle has been fraught with greater accomplishments for the human
 We have started the most magnificent charity the world has looked upon in the Shriners Hospital for Crippled Children, plan that was proposed last June, and for the building of which the Imperial Treasurer now has S913,936 in real cash. We say he has the money because the law required that should be paid in by February l. and we suppose it was. Things are not done by the Imperial Council as they were in the days of 1879 when the Imperial POtentate com- pained that he could not have the proceedings of the Imperial body printed, could he pay his stenog rapher, because the temples would not pay their per capita taxes and their fees for diplomas.
 It requires great stretch of imagination to see that hospital as finished structure, and at work It is an inspiring picture.

PLACE IF SHRINE INMASONRY MADE
 CLEAR ID NOVICE

At a time when so many Sons of the Desert are being brought under the protection of Allah, it is probably doing the right thing to repeat the trfte remark that "Shrinedom is not a part of Masonry" and at the same time to warn all our new and un- fledgeI dealers in sacred carpets that if is the easiest thing in the world for Shriner to bring reproach on Masonry. Nobles Of the Mystic shrine realize that in the eyes of the profaue world we are looked upon as a part of the Great Brotherhood. and ii is probably true that many Of inc newer Nobles are not careful enough in making statements defin- fne, the relations of the. Shrine and Masonry. as they sometimes are sort of careless like. in their conduct. Shriners arc not any worse. nor do

Work Eor CrippIes

We see the Lolita Armours of the poor coming on their crutches. in their wheel chairs. some of them be- ing carried by their parents: we see them admitted to the clinic and we cannot hear a question asked as to their religion: no one cares whether they are white, brown. black or blue and we see the vast majority of them passing out into the world again with straightened limbs and backs and sound bodies. to become useful members of society.
 Just a few years ago the news papers carried the story of the action of the great Chicago packer sending to Germany for Q specialist to set the joints of his crippled daughter. In March of this year the newspapers carried the story of the engagement of that little girl, now grown to womanhood and a vigorous specimen of her sex. Every reader of that story must have rejoiced with the happiness and the fulness of life that has come to the little Armour cripple.
 There are hundreds like her in America, but their dads cannot send for a German specialist.
 The Mobility of the Mystic Shrine proposes to give them their chance.
