A Mason's Duty.

critics it is because he is a Mason , if he is successful in politics , or if he prospers in any undertaking whatever , it is from the same cause , although perhaps he may not be a Mason after all . If a particularly bad state of affairs exists or is brought about , the Masons have done it ; so that to their minds the Order is blamed for anythirg and everything that happens which does not meet with their approval .

If a man who is at all prominent in Masonic matters happens to make a mistake , or take a wrong step , they are ready to oondemn him much quicker than if he were not a Mason . There is still another class of intelligent people who have never becomo members of the Order , although they think well enough of it . who expect more from men because they are Masons , and think that all their acts should be entirely above reproach .

Placed in this situation with all these surroundings , should not the true Masou feel that he has a strong reason for the avoidance of anything that excites criticism , and a powerful incentive to good behaviour and upright conduct , " not only while in the Lodge , but also when abroad in the world . "

Is it not the bounden duty of all Masons to so conduct themselves in all matters , at all times , and under all circumstances , as not only to call down no criticism , but so that they may be held up as models of respectability and types of propriety for all men to pattern after ?

This is expected of him , and it is a duty he should perform and fulfil , with an interest and a zeal commensurate with the character which he sustains—that of a true Mason . I apprehend that many of us think that if they act squarely with a

brother Mason , if they maintain with each other the correct Masonic relations , they have done all that is expected of them as Masons ; that their obligations to do what is just and proper extends no further than to a Brother .

But when we look into the teachings of the Order we certainly must find that it transcends such a narrow line of duty by a very long and broad degree . The true Mason looks upon mankind as a brotherhood ; he looks upon life- as very much more than the narrow , selfish existence , bounded by a devotion to a small circle ; he feels that there is much more in this life

than the single me , or mine , much more than the comparatively small aggregation of a few who are congenial to him ; his existence and being must spread wider than this ; it must take an interest in all that are here , even those who do not live and act as he thinks they should ; onr teachings are that as Masons our charity should be as extensive as the world itself .

We claim to be broader than the church , and we are , inasmuch as our teachings , if properly followed , lead us to a comprehension of all , rich and poor , great and small , high and low , of whatever race , creed , or opinion . In following out and acting upon the teachings of Masonry thus broadly , we

shall not only carry out the true intent and doctrine of'the Order , that of benefiting the world at large , but shall conduce to our own happiness in knowing that we have performed our individual duty according to the best and broadest teachings , evolved from that book which is the basis and foundation on which the superstructure of Freemasonry is founded .

Such a line of conduct strengthens , broadens , and raises Freemasonry , and is an armour from which the shafts of criticism fall harmless to the ground . —Winthrop Messenger , in " Freemasons Bepository . "
