1 THE RITE RECORDER Valley of Cincinnati October 2010 I.C.E. Helps Programs Reach New Heights Degree Event with Special Q&A New Deputy for Ohio Calls Cincinnati Home News from Supreme Council Session Christmas Cathedral Hour is Reinvented Report from the 32º Learning Centers

2 2 Degree Program Features Q&A with Judges Special session will follow lesson about truth, justice, and mercy When was the last time you had the chance to pose challenging questions to a group of judges about their work or about our country s justice system? For most, that opportunity never comes. But the Valley of Cincinnati is tipping the scales in favor of its members and candidates, so to speak, by hosting a Q&A session for those who participate in a special degree presentation at the Cincinnati Masonic Center on October 21, Registration opens at 6:00 p.m. The program will begin in the Scottish Rite Auditorium at 7:00 p.m. with the showing of the new 4 DVD produced and issued by the Supreme Council, N.M.J. Candidates and members will then experience the portrayal of the 7, Provost and Judge. This degree focuses on the importance of fairness, honesty, integrity, and compassion. The Valley of Cincinnati continues its long-standing tradition of inviting actual judges who are members of our fraternity to play key roles in the degree. The cast of judges for this exemplification of the 7 includes Visiting Judge Robert H. Gorman, 33, 1st District Court of Appeals (Ret.); Visiting Judge Jack Rosen, Hamilton County Municipal Court (Ret.); Judge Herman J. Weber, 33, U.S. District Court, Southern District of Ohio; and Judge Robert C. Winkler, Hamilton County Court of Common Pleas. Weber s participation marks the first time a federal judge has taken a role in this degree. The judges have generously agreed to spend time fielding questions from the audience about their responsibilities, the inner workings of the courts, and other related topics. Certain types of questions are off limits, including those about political candidates, pending or upcoming cases, and polarizing issues that would disrupt the harmony of the event. Do you have questions for the judges? Acceptable questions submitted in advance will be given priority at the Q&A. Please all questions to Bill Frank, Deputy Master, Gibulum Lodge of Perfection, at billfrank30@gmail.com.

3 3 Powers Elected Deputy for Ohio New role recognizes a lifetime of leadership Illustrious Brother William R. Powers, Jr., 33 The recent election of Illustrious Brother William R. Powers, Jr., 33, to the position of Deputy for the State of Ohio marks just the fourth time in Supreme Council history that an Active Member from the Valley of Cincinnati has been elevated to this station of prominence. Ill. Bro. Powers was elected and installed at the Supreme Council session held August 28-31, 2010 in Philadelphia, PA. This significant position was previously held by Cincinnati s E.T. Carson, 33 ( ); John A. Lloyd, 33 (1977); and Alfred E. Rice, 33 ( ). As Deputy for the State of Ohio, Ill. Bro. Powers is also Commander-in-Chief of Ohio Council of Deliberation. Ill. Bro. Powers is a member of Western Hills-Cheviot Lodge No. 140 and has served the Grand Lodge of Ohio as a D.E.O. and D.D.G.M. He also served on the Board of the Ohio Masonic Home. He joined the Scottish Rite in the spring of 1970, served as Commander-in-Chief of Ohio Consistory in , and was chairman of the Valley s Board of Trustees in He has tended to our members, supported Valley officers and administrators, and ensured the success of our fraternal endeavors as Active Member of the Supreme Council. His long-term goal is to increase stability in membership. We must work to be more involved with young men s groups to attract their membership when they become of age, Powers says. We have a unique opportunity to provide an avenue that most look for in society today: our core values. Powers in Pictures: A Brief Look Back A young officer of the Valley of Cincinnati Dressing in the robing room with help from Harvey Lowry (right) Commander-in-Chief, Ohio Consistory Where were you first prepared to be made a Mason? At a Shrine dance! The story of how Ill. Bro. Powers joined Masonry is a charming one. He married the vivacious Vicki L. Shepard, as he describes her, and being newlyweds looking for fun nights out, Bill and Vicki would attend Shrine dances with Vicki s uncle. After several trips to Syrian Temple for dances, Vicki asked Bill about joining the Shrine. He thought that made sense, so Bill informed Vicki s uncle that he wanted to join the Shrine. His response was, You can t. You have to join the Scottish Rite first. Bill said, OK, I ll join the Scottish Rite. Vicki s uncle responded, You can t! You have to join Blue Lodge first. Bill finally asked Vicki s uncle to join Blue Lodge, and the saga began. Now, after enduring decades of green beans and roast beef at Masonic functions, Bill Powers gets his just desserts.

4 4 Cincinnati Stands Out at Supreme Council Read on to find out about what happened in Philadelphia Top row, left to right: John Wm. McNaughton, 33, Sovereign Grand Commander, N.M.J., with William R. Powers, Jr., 33, Deputy for the State of Ohio; Richard A Graeter II, 33 ; William T. Woodruff, 33. Bottom row, left to right: Richard F. Manifold, Sr.; Barry K. Teegarden; Robert L. Wade, M.S.A. The 198th annual meeting of the Supreme Council, Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite, Northern Masonic Jurisdiction, was held on August in Philadelphia, PA. The Valley of Cincinnati was pleased to have two of our members receive the 33º: William T. Woodruff, Past Most Wise Master, Cincinnati Chapter of Rose Croix; and Richard A. Graeter II, Past Commander-in-Chief, Ohio Consistory. Ill. Bro. Graeter also served as the exemplar for the class. Ill. Bro. William R. Powers, Jr., 33º, was named Deputy for the State of Ohio. He replaces Ill. Bro. Neal M. Smalley, 33º. Ill. Bro. Powers now oversees the activities of the ten Scottish Rite Valleys in the state and remains the Active Member of the Supreme Council for the Valley of Cincinnati. Some important changes were made in the Supreme Council Constitution to require that only the presiding officer, secretary, and treasurer of each Valley be elected. The remaining officers may be elected or appointed as determined by each Valley. In addition, the Ritual Committee has replaced the existing 19º, Grand Pontiff, with a new degree, Brothers of the Trail. The new 19º is based on a journey on the Oregon Trail. It is written for a very limited number of roles. The Ritual Committee also plans to make changes to the 8º, 10º, and 28º to ensure that each of these degrees is aligned to the core values of the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite. The 2011 Supreme Council session will be held August in Chicago, IL. Three members of the Valley of Cincinnati were elected to receive the 33º at next year s Supreme Council session. They are Richard F. Manifold, Sr., Thrice Potent Master, Gibulum Lodge of Perfection; Barry K. Teegarden, Sovereign Prince, Dalcho Council, Princes of Jerusalem; and Robert L. Wade, M.S.A., longtime stalwart of the Valley of Cincinnati in Lawrence County. The Valley congratulates these dedicated Masons. VALLEY VOICES JASON A. MICHAELS, 32 What is Freemasonry? To most, it is a fraternity with a history that dates to the ancient stonebuilders who, over time, allowed admittance to aristocrats and royalty who showed interest in the ancient knowledge of geometry. To add to it, some believe that the Templars, after being suppressed by Philip the Fair, hid amongst the builders and influenced them with their fraternal bonds and initiation ceremonies. To others, Masons are an intricate piece of a new world order, just waiting for the time to begin their global takeover. So, what is Freemasonry? A handshake? A hug? Or is it a smile telling a Brother who is in tears that things will be OK, even though he just lost the love of his life? Is it a grown man comforting a little child whose body is covered in burns? For me, Freemasonry is a place where a young man, covered in tattoos or sporting a crazy haircut, can sit across the dinner table from a man three times his age and hold a meaningful conversation because both believe the measure of a man is the internal and not the external. For me, Freemasonry is earning the apron the badge of a Mason and doing everything possible to leave the record of my actions on earth as pure and spotless as the surface of that emblem. Freemasonry has changed me forever. I ve met men I care for as much as blood relatives men I truly would aid and assist as far as my cabletow would reach. Brethren, we cannot forget what Masonry is, because every man who becomes a Mason has his own ideas about the meaning of the greatest fraternity ever established on earth.

6 Christmas Cathedral Hour This year s event represents an entirely new approach to the holiday celebration The Valley of Cincinnati is committed to working from innovative ideas and updating existing programs to please a growing and changing membership. Ronald W. Zemites, Most Wise Master of Cincinnati Chapter of Rose Croix, has applied this important and beneficial paradigm shift to the Christmas Cathedral Hour, an event the Valley has hosted for several decades. This year, the Christmas Cathedral Hour has the pleasure of promoting an expanded role for our choir, Zemites says. The Valley of Cincinnati has the finest choir in the entire Northern Masonic Jurisdiction. It is unique. Our choir features the dedicated voices of men and women who support the Valley s degree work and other great programs. The doors open at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, December 5, The program, which begins at 3:30 p.m., will showcase our choir in the performance of the cantata Sing Noel by Hal Hopson. Zemites explains that this Cathedral Hour will be a service of lessons and carols. The lessons shared will be ones of poetry rather than scripture. The work uses hymn texts as well as readings drawn from many centuries of sacred English poetry, representing some of the most beautiful Christmas literary gems of all time. This promises to be an exciting event and equally exciting season for the choir. We look forward to welcoming the Christmas Season with this program, he says. The choir looks forward to welcoming additional members as they prepare for this special program. Rehearsals are Monday evenings at 7:00 p.m. in the Cincinnati Masonic Center. They will begin September 23 and continue through the date of the Cathedral hour, except for Columbus Day. Members of the choir are deeply committed to the Valley and dedicate significant time to rehearsals and performances. Many are members for ten years or more and receive Meritorious Service Awards for their service. The Valley of Cincinnati has the finest choir in the entire Northern Masonic Jurisdiction. Ronald W. Zemites Most Wise Master, Cincinnati Chapter of Rose Croix

7 7 Norwood Learning Center Receives Grant Funds were used to produce an important summer program Teller Recognized for Service to the Valley The Board of Trustees for the Valley of Cincinnati hosted a special meal and award ceremony for John R. Teller, Jr., 33º, at its meeting on August 19, 2010 Ill. Bro. Teller was recognized that evening for his extraordinary service to the Valley as its executive secretary for the past three years. In recognition, the Board of Trustees voted unanimously to name Ill. Bro. Teller secretary emeritus. Board Chairman Charles A. Chip Brigham III, 33º, expressed his gratitude for Ill. Bro. Teller s contributions, and William R. Powers, Jr., 33º, Deputy for Ohio, presented Ill. Bro. Teller with a framed certificate to commemorate his election to secretary emeritus. The Norwood 32 Masonic Children s Learning Center received a $7,500 grant from the Charles H. Dater Foundation for the 2010 summer bridge program. Children in this summer program received tutoring lessons at no charge to their families to reinforce Orton- Gillingham reading practices. Tutors concentrated on Orton-Gillingham-based activities, skill review, grammar, and handwriting. This foundational framework is designed to help the back-to-school transition for these children. The Learning Centers have been recipients of Dater Grants for more than ten years. Hundreds of children enrolled in the Carl and Edyth Lindner 32 Masonic Children s Learning Centers have benefited from the Foundation s generosity. Please visit for more information about the Carl and Edyth Lindner 32º Masonic Children s Learning Centers. You can also follow the Learning Centers on Facebook by visiting The Charles H. Dater Foundation The Charles H.

The Foundation does not operate programs, but makes grants to private, non-profit organizations and public agencies for their programs and projects. The Foundation has made more than 1,900 grants totaling more than $31 million. Established to ensure that funding for worthwhile community programs would continue after his death, the Foundation preserves the memory and philanthropic commitment of Charles H. Dater ( ) and his ancestors, whose hard work and business acumen over four generations provided them with the opportunity to share their success with their community.
