Annual Athletic Fete At The Boys' School.
ANNUAL ATHLETIC FETE AT THE BOYS' SCHOOL .
IT is doubtless well known to the readers of the FREE - MASON ' S CHRONICLE that on the occasion of the Annual Visit of Stewards to the School " Our Boys " engage in a Series of athletic competitions , and , as usual on such occasions , prizes have to be provided . Now , there is no
fund—of a permanent description—from which prizes can be furnished , and therefore an annual struggle ensues to raise the sura needed for the purpose . There are always a few , we may say a very few , who contribute something , but their number is not sufficient to satisfy tbe cravings of
the " growing generation , ' or the honours their rulers consider them entitled to . As a consequence , the " Prize Fund Subscription List" has to be worked upon by its
few supporters for a very extended period . Indeed , we have only just received l ^ t year's balance sheet , and this , too , when the coming season is all bnt commenced , and a start shonld have been made with a list for next June ' s
assemblage . Bro . Rev . Dr . Morris , the Head Master of the School , we know will be pleased to receive contributions for the 1884 Prize Fund , or , should our friends desire it , they may be sent through us . The following is a statement of last year ' s account .

TT must be a matter of very-great gratification to the - * - Committees of the three Institutions to hear of any tresh means being devised to add to the sums raised , year DJ year , by the brethren of England for the purposes of Masonic Charitv , and when these means are nf a rihavani-cr
likel y to make the increase of no inconsiderable extent , and also pf no short duration , the gratification must be greatly intensified . Such is the case with the Third City Masonic benevolent Association , the first meeting of which was th 9 a * Railway Tavern , Fenchurch Street , E . G ., on one 28 th nit ., when a most successful start was made , 81
u » res oeing taken up on that occasion , with a fair prosit -r ? fnrfclier additions ere long . It is the ambition of ™ e Hon . Sec . ( Bro . Hugh M . Hobbs ) to have 115 or 120 members from the commencement , as it is then expected that a clear one hundred will continue to the finishand
, a otal of 1 , 000 guineas thus emanate from the Association nrmg the four years it is customary for these organizations to run . We understand that two or three brethren i . . --- •"" uuuw » ' » uu uua" - < " '•' « "i im-BB ureuiren

gmneas desired , the Committee will be glad to receive tew names of brethren , either in London or the Provinces , wno Tvill join the Association . We may add , we are Personall y interested in the matter , and if any of our readers s ^ f * ° join shall be pleased to receive their names and nbscriptions ;—one shilling per share per week .

The Grand Lodge of Quebec , and its subordinate Lodges , have met with a moat serious rebuff at the hands of the Provincial Parliament , which , at its meeting held on the 17 th ult ., rejected , on tho second reading , a Bill , introduced by Mr . White , to relieve the brethren of the Quebec
Constitution from tho operation of the laws directed against Secret Societies . The Quebec brethren thus find themselves unable to hold a meeting unless they choose to violate the laws of the country in which they reside—a step which would hardly be consistent with the teachings of Freemasonry or the dictates of common prudence .
Percy Lodge of Instruction , No . 198 . —At the Jolly Farmers , Southgate-rcad , N ., on Saturday , 26 th nit . Present—Bros . Cross W . M ., and a numerous assemblage of the brethren .

Brethren desirous of
becoming Life Governors or Life Subscribers of one or other of the Institutions are reminded of this easy method of doing so . This Association presents an especial feature , inasmuch , as not having been long started , the arrears are small . A meeting of brethren in . terested in the testimonial to the late Preceptor , Bro . Pearcy , will take place on Saturday next , 4 th May , at the Jolly Farmers , Southgate-road , N .
