Meetings:

September 7th, Tuesday,
6:30 to 9:30 pm. Special Fellowship Night Dinner for the brothers and their ladies
followed by an open meeting with the Masonic Families Organization. We are back on our regular
schedule of two meetings per month on the
second and third Tuesday. Our new Worshipful Master Dewey Goering is pictured here.
As always, a Masters' table of savory and
sweet treats is available after each meeting for the refreshment and
enjoyment of all the Brothers.

Euclid Coffee and Donut Hour:
Every
Saturday at 9:00 am.
Refresh yourselves with America's favorite pastry and beverage, followed
by a game of pool,
good fellowship, interesting and lively conversations on a variety of
timely topics. Men interested in Masonry and visiting Brothers are
welcome to attend.
Euclid's Geezer
Coffee Hour at the Lodge. Every Tuesday
at
9:00 am. Brothers who were
around when God created
light gather for coffee, donuts, gossip and laughs.
Scottish Rite Coffee and Donut
Hour. Every Thursday at 8:00
am in the Scottish Rite Temple
dining room. Regrettably, their coffee isn't as good as ours. They are
Masters of nearly every mystery except the mystery of how to make good
coffee. It still eludes them. Fortunately, their donuts are pretty good.

Masonic Friends of Whittier Library.
Whittier library has an annual budget of 1,100.00. From that
amount, they must pay for internet service for the library computers,
web subscriptions to school district required websites, any magazine
subscriptions, paper and office supplies and finally, what is left over,
goes to books. Last year 1/10th of their entire yearly budget went to a
required purchase just five large type books on sports for special needs
children. The librarian tells us when new books do come in, the kids
actually fight over them. They plead with her to get books they want to
read. Unlike other children, it is not a situation where parents can
afford to buy books for these kids. She said, for most of them, just
providing food and shelter is a major concern for their families. Buying and
owning a book is an unattainable luxury. The Masonic Friends of Whittier
Library has pledged to give $2,000.00 for books to the Library this
year. In addition, we will (as we did this year) have a drawing for
books in conjunction with our Masonic Bike for Books program. You
are invited to join in this worthy cause by becoming a friend for a
$25.00 donation. A book will be donated either in your name, or as a
memorial to a loved one, or in the name of the Lodge. It is your choice.
All books will be chosen by the Librarian and Whittier teaching staff
for age appropriate books. The good news is an unnamed brother has
pledged to match our every donation dollar for dollar up to $1,000.
Which will give us our $2,000 goal. We can do this. This is a noble
calling. As Freemasons we are charged with raising men from darkness to
light. Which is one of the reasons why we are great believers in and
supporters of public education for the common man and for the common
good. What many do not know, is that Freemasons were the driving force
behind the foundation of public education in this country. We believe in
raising all of mankind from the darkness and tyranny of ignorance, to
the light of reason and understanding. Irrespective of one’s beliefs,
the fact remains that public education in this country has been slowly
beggared and outright assaulted for a number of years. We are now seeing
the very sad fruits of this. The state of the Whittier Library is a
sobering example. We have a choice in this thing, and we should do the
right thing. As our Brother Thomas Jefferson once said, an educated
citizenry is the greatest safeguard for our democracy and a
bulwark against tyranny. To see one reason why this is important to our
country, CLICK HERE

Anthony Kelson.
