Is it ok to put a square and compass on my wifes car? I would like to know that if she was in trouble on side of road that a brother might stop and assist her. The blue slipper decals have been more difficult to find than s and c. What are your thoughts?:confused:

If you call the GLOTX, they have them. To answer your question: I don't know.

You saying they've been more difficult to procure or you're afraid they're harder to spot on a car? I agree with both, hah. I've found a couple places that have blue slipper medallions/decals.

The GLoTX has the Blue Slipper decals, you can get them from the merchandise committee. They have them in two sizes, and either gold or silver background.


As to the other question, not to break any "laws or edicts"... Do you drive the car yourself from time to time?? If yes, put the S&C's on it. If not, do it anyway... I hardly doubt that anyone would say anything. Seriously.

Look at it this way, I have Texas Mason tags on my Mustang. Being our only real "personal" automobile, my wife drives it... Get the idea?

I do drive it from time to time. I get what your getting at. I guess since it is her main transportation i should let her decide. Thank you brother for the imput

There is definitely more variety when it comes to s and c than the slipper.:cool:

Thanks for bringing this topic to light. On Thursday this past week my wife had a tire blow on the her way shopping. Her and my two daughters were stuck on the side of the highway for 3 hours waiting for help to arrive. Not one person stopped in those 3 hours to offer any kind of assistance. The first thing i thought of was "what if i had put a S&C sticker on the back of her car"... Would someone have stopped to help her then?

I have avoided putting the stickers on her vehicle (which is also my main vehicle) because i think when you do, you are representing the order and my wife's driving skills are not exactly perfect. But i think there will be a S&C sticker going on there in the next few days. - just in case.

Im from Chicago brothers. I have a S & C on my vehicle & from time to time my wife drives it. She has said that while driving or at stop lights she has glanced over after feeling someone looking at her & was frightened as different brothers wanted to see who was driving. She is now a little more at ease when it happens because she understands its a brother 9 times out if 10. She did say its took a little getting use to. I don't have a S & C on her car although I think I will put one on it if she feels comfortable.

Brother SlyGC59. Buy her one of those blue slipper magnets to put on the back of her car to let the brethren know she is connected with the brotherhood by relationship. The name of the emblem escapes me at the moment but it is a signal to all members of the craft that the lady in possession of it is one of our own and that she is entitled to any support or assistance she may require at any time.

My wife, sister, sister-in-law and nieces all carry them on their luggage and purses. Just a thought.

It's called the blue slipper and you can get it from the Grand Lodge of Texas.

Does anyone have a picture of this "blue slipper" that is being referred to? I've not heard of this and amazon doesn't come up with anything....

I have them on the back of my vehicles, quick story here according to what my wife told me. My wife was entering the hwy when a car behind her swerved onto the side of the road and drove past kicking up rocks. It then proceeded to brake check her several times... my kids were in the car. All of a sudden this big F350, the rancher ones with a fuel tank for a tool box, pulls up next to this guy who is harassing my wife and proceeds to push him onto the shoulder. The a$$hole car driver got the point and sped off. The F350 slowed down to ensure my wife was fine and then drove off.

The F350 had a square and compass on the back window. Do not know who this old country boy was but thank you brother.

The blue slipper is only part of some lodges although the slipper itself is a part of freemason history and teachings.
