As your Commander-in-Chief, I have done my very best to spread awareness of New Hampshire Consistory, both within our Rite, and throughout the appendant bodies. Here s a brief summary of my recent activities: Attended the Order of Rainbow for Girls, Grand Assembly Presented at the New Hampshire Grand Chapter, Order of Eastern Star Spoke at the Rainbow Grand Officers Reception Masonic Restoration Foundation Symposium event sponsor Sponsored the purchase of polo shirts for New Hampshire DeMolay Conclave Hosted Honorary and Active Members of Supreme Council and their guests in Washington, DC Attended the annual DeMolay Chevalier ceremony Attended Degrees in the Valleys of Concord, Nashua and Portsmouth-Dover In August 2013 the annual Supreme Council Session was held in Washington, DC. My wife Tammy and I hosted New Hampshire based Honorary and Active Members of Supreme Council and their guests. We also welcomed Illustrious brothers Becker, Larson, Lobdell and Porter along with their wives as these distinguished brethren were coroneted as Honorary Members of Supreme Council, 33. This was a highly enjoyable event, and truth be told, all credit goes to Tammy for her tremendous organizational and catering skills. Our Fall 2013 season culminated with our Reunion held on Saturday, November 2, 2013 at Merrimack Valley High School in Penacook, NH. Seventeen candidates witnessed the exemplification of the 25, and sixteen received the 31 and 32 Degrees. On behalf of the candidates, dignitaries, guests and myself, I extend a sincere thanks to the cast, stage crew, lighting team, musician, costume, makeup, directors, secretaries and everyone associated with this wonderful day. Now it is time to look to the future. Planning for the Spring 2014 Reunion has already begun. But in the meantime, let us cherish our time in our great Fraternity. I wish you and your families a very safe and Happy Holiday season and thank you for your continued support to New Hampshire Consistory. Fraternally, Ken Clay Kenneth A. Clay, Jr., 33 Commander-in-Chief Whuddaya Mean, I m A Member of Nashua? Why am I getting information from Nashua? I m a member of the Valley of (pick one) Concord, Keene, Lancaster-Littleton, Portsmouth-Dover. That s a question the office is continually asked. As a 32 Scottish Rite Mason, you are a member of the. Why? First, let s review how Scottish Rite is organized. In the U.S. there are two Supreme Councils, the governing bodies for Scottish Rite. You are part of the Northern Masonic Jurisdiction which is headquartered in Lexington, MA. There are fifteen states that make up the Jurisdiction. States are governed by a Council of Deliberation. Within the state, there are regional groups called Valleys. Continued on Page 3
3 Page 3 Volume 3, Issue 4 I Belong to Nashua, Too? Your Home Valley is the Valley that has your Lodge of Perfection. That s important because, in addition to the dues, your Home Valley s Lodge of Perfection collects your assessment for Supreme Council. That means even if you decided to belong to all five Lodges of Perfection in the state, you only pay the assessment to Supreme Council once, through your Home Valley. Now to your membership. With the Bookend Concept of Scottish Rite, any member who has witnessed the 4 is a Scottish Rite Mason. After seeing three more degrees that have one of our Core Values, he may see the 32, when he becomes a Thirty-second Degree Scottish Rite Mason. That means that when you ve seen the 4, you ve joined the Lodge of Perfection, responsible for the 4-14 ; the Council of Princes of Jerusalem for the ; the Chapter of Rose Croix, covering the 17 and 18 ; and the Consistory, for the If your Home Valley doesn t have a Chapter or a Consistory, you join one in a nearby Valley. We have only one Consistory in the state of New Hampshire, New Hampshire Consistory, which is chartered in the. So if you are a member of any New Hampshire Valley, you are also a member of the for New Hampshire Consistory as either a Scottish Rite Mason, or as a 32 Scottish Rite Mason. Core Values Subject of November Valley Stated Continu e d f ro m Page 2 At the Valley s Nov 19 Stated Business Meeting, Thrice Potent Master, John W. Jackson, paused the usual agenda, for the members to see the new screen version of the 6, Master of the Brazen Serpent. Even members who aren t convinced about the use of a video format for our degrees commented, How do you think they did that? to a special effect, and, Wow, no prompting. Following the presentation, a discussion took place about our degrees, the Core Values within them, and the need to explain to our cast members, our current members, and our candidates, what they are and how they are relevant in our daily lives. One member said he got more out of the discussion, than he had being an actively involved member of the degrees. Ill Robert G. Bianchi, 33 Deputy s Representative for the, said that going forward, discussions with members and candidates will be an important part of our degree work and our Reunions. CORE VALUES At its 2010 Annual Session, the Supreme Council adopted, as the Core Values of the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite, N. M. J.: Reverence for God Integrity Devotion to Country Justice Tolerance Service to Humanity Support Your Blue Lodges They re why we exist! Ill Robert E. Hansen, 33 speaks to candidates and members at New Hampshire Consistory Fall Reunion. Photo Bud Durling
4 Page 4 Scottish Rite News Scholarships Open to Members, Children, and Grandchildren 2014 marks the third year of the William E. Bryant Scholarship Program. Named for the late Commander-in-Chief of New Hampshire Consistory, the scholarships may be awarded to Scottish Rite Masons, their children or grandchildren, and to Masonic youth. To be eligible for a Bryant Scholarship, an applicant must meet the following requirements: Supreme Council & NH Consistory s Scholarship Process Starts January 1 Be currently enrolled as a freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior at an accredited college or university. Have a minimum Grade Point Average of 2.75 on a 4.0 scale. Be one of the following: Scottish Rite Mason in the Northern Masonic Jurisdiction, or The child or grandchild of a Scottish Rite Mason in the N.M.J. A member of a Masonic sponsored youth organization of the N.M.J. The Supreme Council s Abbot Scholarship requirements are similar to those of the Bryant Scholarship. However, grandchildren of Scottish Rite Masons are not eligible. The other requirements for an Abbott Scholarship match those for a Bryant Scholarship. Applications for both scholarships can be filled out online, then printed and signed. Go to click on Charities, and choose the Scholarships link on the left side of the page, for links to both scholarship applications. Children s Dyslexia Centers Creating Brighter Futures Called from Labor In Memoriam Robert H Bascom Elmer Clyde Boutwell Kenneth F Cegelski David Richard Crockett Kenneth M Cunliffe Nathan Winslow Driscoll Clarence L Grant Clifton Edward Hayes John B Nay Loren D Noland Robert S Ordway Leslie T Reed Owen Richard Sponagle George Louis Whitcraft Dyslexia affects one out of every five people, but until Scottish Rite Masons took action, no other national charity had addressed the issue and its cost to individuals and society in a systematic way. Dyslexia is an inherited neurological disorder that affects the way people learn to read and speak as well as how they process things mathematically. Famous dyslexics include Thomas Edison, Winston Churchill, Leonardo DaVinci, Walt Disney, Tom Cruise and Whoopi Goldberg. It affects boy and girls equally. Children left with untreated dyslexia often suffer devastating personal consequences. It is the number one reason teenagers drop out of school, and is a primary factor in juvenile delinquency. Research reveals that children with untreated dyslexia can become underachieving adults unable to contribute to society at their fullest capacity. Dyslexia is, however, a treatable condition. Working with the world-renowned Massachusetts General Hospital, the Northern Masonic Jurisdiction of Scottish Rite saw the critical need and launched the Children's Dyslexia Centers, providing tutoring at no charge to children from early elementary through high school who have been diagnosed as dyslexic. The goal of our Centers are: To help children with dyslexia learn to read and to reach their full potential; To help their families end the frustration, guilt and disruption caused by dyslexia; To help communities by developing Children s Dyslexia Centers to help youngsters succeed in and out of school. Since 1994, over 50 Dyslexia Centers have opened in 13 states. New Hampshire has two centers, located in Nashua and Rochester. The Centers not only help children with dyslexia, but also train tutors in the Orton-Gillingham approach to teaching, so they become certified to teach children in the school systems. The Centers also provide research information, to continually improve their methods. How can you help? Donate your time or your money to a Children s Dyslexia Center Walk or Golf Tournament; become a Center Volunteer; or donate through the Supreme Council s Blue Envelope Appeal or mail a check payable to Children's Dyslexia Centers, Inc. to: Children's Dyslexia Centers, Inc., Attn: William G.

7 Page 7 Volume 3, Issue 4 Toasting an Historic Pitcher Hilary Anderson Stelling, Scottish Rite Masonic Museum and Library In past centuries, American Masons socialized, celebrated and toasted together all activities that called for drinking punch, wine and other festive beverages. Brethren used pitchers, like this one, and other vessels to share libations in a convivial setting. One lodge historian noted that in the early 1800s, members of Saint Paul Lodge in Groton, Massachusetts, made a drink to the health of every candidate who was initiated, crafted or raised. Lodge inventories taken around the same time show that many lodges were well-prepared to offer hospitality. One Bostonarea lodge numbered three two-quart pitchers and six pint pitchers as well as a dozen punch glasses and sixty-three wine glasses among its possessions ample supplies for a lodge of about thirty members. English ceramics manufacturers, working in Staffordshire, Liverpool, Sunderland and other locations, crafted a dazzling variety of transfer-printed earthenware pitchers for the domestic and American markets. Among the thousands of vessels they produced and ornamented, they decorated many with images calculated to appeal to Freemasons, be they beautifying their lodges or their own homes. This pitcher, made around 1800 and colored with a bright, canary yellow glaze, featured two transfer-printed images that were likely interesting to Masonic consumers. On one side, makers ornamented the pitcher with figures representing a lodge Master and lodge Wardens, along with a selection of Masonic symbols and a variation of the arms of the Moderns surround by a fanciful border of flowers, elaborate curves and flowing ribbons. Beneath the figures and symbols, are lines from The Entered Apprentice s Song by Matthew Birkhead (d. ca. 1723): "The World is in pain the secret to gain for a Free and Accepted Mason that reminded brethren of their obligation. The image on the other side of the pitcher celebrated a feat of engineering and the accomplishment of a prominent Mason. This transfer print showed a bridge, noted as the Iron Bridge Over Wear near Sunderland, also known as the Wearmouth Bridge or the Sunderland Bridge. This all cast-iron bridge spanned, according to the notation on the pitcher, 236 feet and reached 100 feet in height. It linked two communities that had previously only been connected by ferry. When builders finished the bridge in 1796, it was the world s largest single-span cast iron bridge. With an unimpeded arch-shaped span, the bridge allowed tall masted ocean-going ships to travel freely on the river. These ships carried coal, an economically important product in the area, to London and other areas by sea. Local landowner, Member of Parliament and Mason, Rowland Burdon (ca ) supported the construction of the bridge financially and politically. He also participated in the Masonic ceremonies marking both the laying of the foundation stone of the bridge in 1793 and the opening of the bridge in The latter celebration took place before, what one newspaper of the time described as an immense concourse of people (computed at 50,000 persons). Pitcher, ca England. Scottish Rite Masonic Museum and Library, Special Acquisition Fund, Photograph by David Bohl. Detail, from pitcher, ca England. Scottish Rite Masonic Museum and Library, Special Acquisition Fund, Typically the artists who created transfer prints for ceramics manufacturers used published sources such as book illustrations and membership certificates as their inspiration. As a well-publicized engineering marvel and a source of regional pride, the Iron Bridge both captured the public s and many artists imaginations. Scholars have estimated that over twenty different illustrations of the bridge can be found on different ceramic forms produced in the early 1800s. The engraver who created this image seems to have signed his work with his initials, E. A. As yet, research has not identified this maker. Like all fashions, the vogue for transfer-printed pitcher for use in the lodge or at home, eventually faded. Not only did consumers seek new forms and novel kinds of decoration, but lodge sociability changed. By the early 1820s, many lodges decided to stop serving alcohol in deference to the emerging temperance movement. Many lodges once-prized transfer-print pitchers also fell victim to loss or damage during lodge closures in the anti-masonic era from Luckily, many of these intriguing pitchers escaped the scrap heap and, eventually, regained status as valued possessed in lodges and museum collections throughout the country. If you or your lodge have questions about a historic pitcher, please feel free to get in touch with the Scottish Rite Masonic Museum and Library at and we will be happy to tell you more about your lodge s treasures.
