 While the Order was originally designed as an inquisition to wreak swift punishment on the criminal classes and secure justice to the oppressed, yet in a country like the United States, where justice is denied to TO one who has a just cause, an organization which as sumed the exercise of such powers would notonly be unlawful, nut con- .trary to the spirit Of American in stitutions; hence as practicei in North America, everything >avor- ing of judicial or ;nquisitiun&l pow CTS has been eliminated but the splendor and magnifcance of it's Oriental rites and ceremonies are strictly adhered to.

SHRINE CLUB
 PLANNING INTERIOR TRIP

The Anchorage Shrine Club is contemplating making a pilgrimage to Nenana and Fairbanks sometime during the coming summer, for which arrangements are now being made. The excursion will number many Anchorage Shriners and will include a full set of officers of Nile Temple, Order of the Mystic Shrine, of Seattle, who are making the trip North for the purpose of initiating classes in Anchorage and Fairbanks, the latter class includ- ing -Masons of Nenana in its ranks. The definite date of the excursion will be made known later on.
 In this connection. the following sketch of the origin of the Ancient Arabic Order Of the Mystic Shrine IS published for the benefit of read CTS of The News:
 The Order of the Mobiles of the Mystic Shrine was founded by the Mohammedan Kalif Alec. the son. in-law of the prophet Mohammed, in the City of Mecca, Arabia. in the year Hejira 25 GA. D. 656).
 It was originally organized as an inquisition for the purpose of sup pressing lawlessness and violence and the disregard of human rights, which at that time ran riot in Arabia, threatening to undermine and destroy civil society. and with which the laws and courts as then administered were unable to cope. These conditions were brought ab"ut by and due to the hatreds engender- ed, thirst for revenge. and general decentralization incident to the re- hgious wars with which the country ha dso long been distracted. .......
 To protect the weak and the op- pressed and enforce obedience to the laws, was the mission of the Order. In doing this, jt would ap- prehend, judge and punish criminals even within the hour. and thus strike terror to the hearts of evil doers. .... -~
 The fundamental tenets to which the Order is devoted are Truth, Justice, Religious Federation and Charity ... .:......
 The Order spread very rapidly, and it's temples were soon estab- hshed in all the great centers Of population in the countries of the Far East. It numbered among it's members many of the most emi- nent men of learning and of social and political influence. and thus be- came a great power for good wher- ever 1t was established.
