I made Eagle with gold palm in 1968. Was also an OA with vigil honor.

I would talk to your Dad and uncles first. As stated above, let them be as involved as they possibly can. One of the best moments in my journey was when my son was initiated and I was the SD in both his EA and FC degrees. I have also been involved in seeing a young man go through the degrees...

I would talk to the WM and SW. the SW is who will appoint the junior officers chairs next year.

I have the square and compass in a Texas map on my back. However, the artist was not very good and really disappointed in his work. I now have a great artist and he is going to do a repair job on it and I will post pictures after it is done.

Well, I for one will be in a cowboy hat. Hard not to since I've been one most of my life.

I found out after I was raised that my grandfather had been a Mason for most of his adult life. He passed away when I was 9 years old. When my mother found out that I had become a Mason, she had me come to her house and presented me with my grand fathers ring. It is now at least 60 years old and...

I have only worn mine at funerals. However, I am an officer and required to wear the officers apron anyway.

I have one but did not get it until after all of my profficencies were completed. The older I get, I realize my memory does not retain information as well so I revert to the code book from time to time as a refresher.

The ages of 18-21 are impressionable years. I would think that at 18, they can have what it takes to be a Mason but could also be swayed by peer pressure toward the dark side so to speak. If they have become Masons at 18, they have surrounded themselves with some of the finest men around and...

I was stating as you said in the original post that it was an EA and FC that didn't have the funds to move forward.

As you go through the degrees, you wll learn of the differences in the Square and Compasses. They are different in each degree.

Our stated meeting is the 1st Tuesday but we are there almost every Wednesday night (our study night). Yes, we rent from Mike H. Thomas Lodge until we can get another building.

If they are a FC or EA, have the WM open in a Masters lodge, bring it to a vote to assist them, then close the Masters lodge and open in a lower lodge. This way they are not in the room and have no idea what is being voted on so as not to embarrass them.

I have caps, rings, shirts and even a leather vest. I guess that means I advertise.

I wear mine to funerals.

Currently we are at $80.00 but looks like we will be going to $100.00 this year. Our endowment is $500.00 and will remain that.

My Grandfather was a mason but he died when I was 8 and never really knew my father. However, my son is now a mason and maybe a start of things to come.

A few months ago I had the pleasure to work the Master Masons degree for a young man in our lodge. Don't get me wrong, I have worked several masters degrees. But this was special and I may never see anything like it again. This young man was the latest in a long line of Masons in his family...

Congradulations. I am the SD of our lodge now. Make sure you know the work as it is a big part of this chair.
