PAGE 2 From The East I must now ask you what are we as a lodge doing to make the good men in our lodge better? Fraternally James M. Burris W.M. burrisjm1979@sbcglobal.net James Burris, WM 2010 Greetings from the East Brethren, FREEMASONRY DEFINED: What is the definition of Freemasonry? In old England, it was defined as a system of morality, veiled in allegory (or a story) and illustrated by symbols. It is a course of moral instruction which uses both allegories and symbols to teach its lessons. Our symbols of the Entered Apprentice Mason Degree are the 24" Gauge and the Common Gavel. The modern definition is Freemasonry is an organized society of men, symbolically applying the principles of Operative Masonry and architecture to the science and art of character building. In other words, we are trying to use the old methods to make good men better. I like to see a man proud of the place in which he lives. I like to see a man live so that his place will be proud of him. -Abraham Lincoln- Always a Brother, Never a Stranger

The request may be made by the brother prior to death or by a family member after death. Call 317.356.0591 Some men see things as they are and ask why, I dream of things that never were and ask why not. - Ted Kennedy- death of any Brother by calling 317.356.0591 To be called for Masonic Services contact our funeral committee chairman Please keep the families of those who have answered the Master s call In your prayers. Please notify the Lodge of the Funeral And Good Cheer Committee Funeral & Good Cheer Robert DeRolf PM and Chairman W.H.
