3 The Masonry You Make Carl H. Claudy "Well, I know you'll be glad to hear I am through learning the Work!" announced a young brother to the Old Past Master, "One more lesson and I'll know all about Masonry!" "That's fine, son. I congratulate you!" answered the Old Past Master. "Some conceit!" murmured another brother, as the satisfied young brother moved away. "I've been studying Masonry many years and I don't think I know all about it, by a long chalk!" "Of course you don't, and neither does he. But we all have to learn of the Masonry we make for ourselves." "Oh, do you think so? I thought we learned of the Masonry our ancient brethren had made for us!" "That, too, of course. But the Masonry they made for us is the Masonry which can be written down, or put in symbols, or taught by word of mouth. It is a concrete thing; a thing of words and phrases, of symbols and figures, of stone and wood and temple and rough ashlar and square and compasses. But the inner Masonry... that we make for ourselves." "Do you ever read Ingersoll? Somewhere he says 'an honest God is the noblest work of man' and thousands of people have shuddered away from the sentence and called it blasphemy. But they fail to understand what the great agnostic meant. Our modern conception of the Great Architect of course falls infinitely short of reality, but at least we do not do him the injustice of con- (Continued on page 4) Not all readers are leaders, but all leaders are readers. Harry S. Truman 3
4 (Continued from page 3) fining Him within the limits of our human frailties. But up through the ages man has limited his gods and his God, according to himself. The gods of Greece and Rome (to go no further back) were gods and goddesses who felt jealousy, anger, revenge. They interfered in the affairs of men for their own pleasures. They were made in the image of men who made them! Later, God was a cruel tyrant, who sanctioned the torments of the Inquisition and loved those who were wicked in his name... at least, such was the middle ages' conception of Deity. Only within a few hundred years has the world as a whole come to consider God as the all-wise, all-loving, all-merciful, all-tender Father of us all. This was what Ingersoll meant when he spoke of the honest God as the noblest work of men; and honest conception of a God infinitely wonderful and beautiful, is a noble conception. "Masonry is a conception. After one gets through learning the ritual, the mere words and phrases, he begins to absorb the philosophy and moral system of Masonry. Still later he begins to carry Masonry in his daily life and live by it. Later on... but wait a minute. We have word Masons to whom the ritual is the whole. We have Masons to whom the symbolism is the whole thing, and who see nothing beyond the inner meanings to squares and compasses and stones and angles. We have others who add to this, philosophy of Masonry, but to whom Masonry is yet a perfect system which can be learned in its entirety by those who apply themselves. "But there are others... more every year, thank God!... who make their own Masonry, beyond that of the books and the lodge, the word and the symbol. To these, Ingersoll might have said that 'an honest Masonry is the noblest work of the Craft' with no more irreverence than he intended in his famous epigram. "Masonry, to such thinking men, is illimitable. It has no end. It is as infinite as space, as unending as time, as distant in boundary as the faintest nebula. It is not a thing of earth only; it encompasses the universe, and joins man's hands with God. This is the Masonry we make for ourselves, and, could what we make be measured, its proportions would be exactly the proportions which are our own. For the hidden Masonry we make is large or small, wide or cramped, beautiful or ugly, grave or gay, useful or ornamental, fine or doss, exactly as are we. (Continued on page 5) 4
5 (Continued from page 4) "In each of us is an idea conception of all we would attain. We have our ideal man, our ideal woman, our ideal job, our ideal position, our ideal happiness. Some of us are so inarticulate we cannot express them; some of us are so inchoate in our thinking we cannot clearly visualize them, but they are there, these ideals, each and every one a measure of what we are. "And we have, also our ideal of Masonry, the hidden Masonry we make, each man for himself. Your inner temple is not like mine and mine is not like yours, though each may be beautiful and perfect; two faces may be equally lovely, you know, yet totally unlike. "To my way of thinking, we are better Masons as we grow our inner Masonry for ourselves, as we perfect it and polish it, and raise it higher and higher. It is sadly true that no man may teach another how to build this hidden temple, but it is beautifully true that all of us may build the better by getting for ourselves better working tools. And the working tools with which we as Craftsmen build our own inner, hidden temple of Masonry, into which none may ever step but ourselves and God; the rough and perfect ashlars, square and plumb, trowel and compasses, by which we build this edifice, are available for us all. Our young friend has one, when he secures a perfect working knowledge of the ritual. The student has another, when he has mastered most of the symbolism. The doctor has a third, when he understands and can formulate the philosophy of Masonry, and all of us get a new edge to our tools as we live according to Masonic light and gain in Masonic experience." The Old Past Master stopped and looked off, as if he saw a vision. The brother to whom he spoke sighed. "I wish," he said, "I might have the inspiration of looking at your temple of Masonry, that I might make mine better." Brethren, look well to your Inner Temples. Treat one and other with the love and compassion we deserve as we grow together in Brotherhood. Fraternally, Dale 5
6 Adapted and edited from: A Far-Fetched Etymology That Seems a Little Cockamamie, by Ben Zimmer, January 13, 2015 (for the Visual Thesaurus at E tymology can take some peculiar turns as a word criss-crosses different cultures. Take, for example, the word cockamamie, whose history might seem stranger than fiction. Improbably enough, the journey begins in Paris in News was emanating from the city about a brand-new fad for ornamentation by means of "transfer pictures," going by the name decalcomania. By the following year, Anglicized as decalcomania, the fad had spread to Britain and Ireland, and in another year, the ornamental fad had crossed the Atlantic, even in the midst of the Civil War. Originally, decalcomanie referred to the fad itself: it was a "mania" (manie) for transferring pictures by means of a process called decalquer, literally "tracing (as with tracing paper)." The name for the fad then became the name for the process, and in English, the transfer pictures used in the ornamentation could themselves be called decalcomanias. That's a mouthful, and over time, beginning in American trade journals, decalcomania got shortened to the two-syllable decal. But in the meantime, another shortening of decalcomania developed on the streets of New York, where the transfer pictures became popular in the form of cheap temporary tattoos that children would put on their skin. Decalcomania lost its first syllable, and the remaining calcomania then ended up getting pronounced (and spelled) as cockamanie or, you guessed it, cockamamie. There were many variant spellings of the word that the children were using. But however it was spelled, these temporary tattoos gave rise to a new meaning of cockamamie, originally a noun referring to something of little value or even fraudulent. The actress Shelly Winters, raised in Brooklyn, self-deprecatingly likened most of her movies to cockamamies. The word could also be used for an odd or frivolous person, as in Sidney Kingsley's 1935 play, Dead End. The first known use of cockamamie as an adjective comes from the 1942 film Woman of the Year, the first to pair Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn. In the (Continued on page 7) 6
7 (Continued from page 6) film, bar owner Pinkie Peters (played by the great character actor William Bendix) ensures that Tracy & Hepburn s characters are served the good stuff by instructing the bartender to not "give 'em none of that cockamamie bar stock. In that usage, cockamamie still means something like "low-quality" or "knock-off," but subsequently, the adjective got extended to all manner of nutty, hare-brained or untrustworthy things. At first glance, even this etymology might appear cockamamie, but the historical record supports all the crazy twists and turns. A room without books is like a body without a soul. (Marcus Tullius) Cicero 7

24 Another Dinner & DVD Night Jointly sponsored by Collingswood-Cloud and Rising Sun Lodges HOW DID HE DO IT? The dome that crowns Florence s great cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore the Duomo is a towering masterpiece of Renaissance ingenuity and an enduring source of mystery. Still the largest masonry dome on earth after more than six centuries, it is taller than the Statue of Liberty and weighs as much as an average cruise ship. Historians and engineers have long debated how its secretive architect, Filippo Brunelleschi, managed to keep the dome perfectly aligned and symmetrical as the sides rose and converged toward the center, 40 stories above the cathedral floor. His laborers toiled without safety nets, applying novel, untried methods. Over 4 million bricks might collapse at any moment and we still don t understand how Brunelleschi prevented it. To test the latest theories, a team of U.S. master bricklayers will help build a unique experimental model Duomo using period techniques. Will it stay intact during the final precarious stages of closing over the top of the dome? JOIN US! OPEN TO ALL MASONS, FRIENDS & FAMILY Monday, March 30 6:00pm at Collingswood Masonic Temple

26 In the Entered Apprentice Degree mention was made of building King Solomon s Temple. In the Fellowcraft Degree you were a worker in King Solomon s Temple. In the Master Mason Degree some impatient workers building King Solomon s Temple do something bad to Hiram Abiff, delaying completion of the Temple. In the Mark Master Mason Degree what happened to Hiram Abiff causes a further delay in completing the Temple. When will the Temple be complete and dedicated? There is only one degree symbolically depicting the dedication of King Solomon s Temple-- the Most Excellent Master, a York Rite degree. (A degree in the Scottish Rite takes place the day of the dedication, but does not actually depict it.) In the Master Mason Degree, three people knew the Secret Word of Master Mason. None of them would give it unless all three were present (and other conditions were met). One of the three died, so neither of the other two would ever utter it again. Yet King Solomon expected future generations to discover the True Word. How could this be possible? Why did King Solomon think such a thing was possible? And what is so important, so special about the True Word anyway? The Royal Arch Degree, the second half of the Master Mason Degree, the completion of the story, has the answer. York Rite is an extension, not a competition, of the three Symbolic Degrees. Learn more about it on May 11 in Haddonfield Temple at a barbecue hosted by Van Hook Council No. 8, Royal and Select Masters. The evening starts at 6:30 p.m. and will cost nothing for non-york Rite Masons. Raymond C. Thorne Recorder Van Hook Council #8, R. & S.M. rct21880@yahoo.com

31 Brethren, There is a great variety of events this month: Official Visits, DLI, degrees, and social events to include family and friends. Cook some chili (or just eat the entries of others), see a Murder Mystery, go Bowling, or enjoy Dinner and an informative DVD with your brothers. See an Entered Apprentice Degree conferred on St. Patrick s Day, or see a Master Mason Degree in the magnificent Corinthian room of the Pennsylvania Grand Lodge building in Philadelphia. Choose one, choose several, but be sure to visit the other lodges in our district, meet your brethren, and have a great time doing it! THE TRAVELING GAVEL Possession of the Traveling Gavel is the 18 th District s reward to Lodges that demonstrate the true spirit of Masonic Travel. The Gavel resides with the Lodge last able to capture it, and remains there until another Lodge captures it away by visiting a Regular or Emergent Communication with at least Twelve Brethren (symbolic of the Twelve Craftsmen) meeting the following criteria: The Worshipful Master Senior Warden Junior Warden Senior OR Junior Deacon Three Additional Officers Two Past Masters Three Additional Brethren Look for the gavel on the Communications page to see which Lodge presently holds it.
