Trestleboard April 2008
FROM THE EAST
At the March Stated meeting RW Bro. James Kincheloe, Jr. the immediate past Potentate of Kena Temple was our guest speaker.
We had a very good turnout for our meeting. Bro Jim is the Iris Grand Lodge Ambassador to the Grand Lodge of Virginia and spoke of his travels in Ireland and his several visits to the Iris Grand Lodge and other Iris Lodges. He stated that Ireland is the second oldest Grand Lodge on record. Jim also showed an interesting film on Iris Masonry.
For the April Communication Wor. Bro Harry Shaffer who was the last WM of Skidmore Daytime Lodge #237. He served as Worshipful Master in 2004 and 2006. His address is titled:
“HOW ONE MASON CAN INSPIRE OTHERS”
RW Jack Riddell, Wor. Dude Walters and Wor. Bro. John Pearson’s wife Alice

HOW TRUE!
Oh, yes, we are all Craftsmen and very proud to be;
We wear our pins and rings for everyone to see.
But let us pose the question, even though the thought may sting
Would you know me for a Mason, if you did not see the ring?
True me show Tenets of our ancient hallowed Creed.
Not just on coat and finger, but by words and deeds.
There’s one thing to remember, if I’ve learned my lessons well
My deeds do more convincing than my finger or lapel.
