the meats and beverages. RWB George Tilden and his wife Gloria
will provide dessert, which will be served after the meeting. You
are asked to bring a covered dish to share.
Victory Lodge will be sponsoring some baskets for Lady Linda's Wish
List. Lady Linda is the wife of the Grand Master of Ohio, Ronald
L. Winnett. The Wish List is her project to support the three
Masonic Homes in Ohio. After the dinner while the men are upstairs
for the Stated Meeting, the ladies will be discussing idea's for the
baskets that will be auctioned off at a dinner in Columbus, on September
13th 2008. to which all Masons and their wives are
welcome to attend.
May 2nd, we will be voting for and installing a new
Secretary. Please plan to attend and support him.

Did You Know?
The origin of
the term "Fellow Craft"?
The term "Fellow" has a long and distinguished history, most commonly
used to denote that one is of a higher status than just being a member
of some organization.
In the guilds from which we believe Masonry arose, a "Fellow of the
Craft" had roughly the same status as a journeyman would have today.
When Masonry had only one Degree there was a section, known as the
"Fellow's Part", which was conferred on those who had shown a mastery of
the material of the Apprentice Degree.
What is the
significance of the Northeast corner?
The symbolism of the Northeast corner is taken from the ancient custom
of laying the cornerstone in the Northeast corner. He who stands
there in the lodge, "a just and upright Mason," is the cornerstone of
the lodge that will be. A lodge is erected not only by but upon
her sons. The Entered Apprentice of today is the veteran Mason and
lodge member of tomorrow.
