THE FESTIVAL .

THE 113 th Anniversary Festival of the Royal Masonic Institution for Girls was held on Wednesday , at the Freemasons' Tavern , London , under the presidency of the Earl Amherst Pro G . M . of

England Prov . G . M . Kent , who was supported by a very large gathering of Brethren , the Board of Stewards numbering no less than 68 9 , so that it was quite impossible for all to be accommodated in the Great Hall , despite the capabilities of that well known establishment .

At the conclusion of the dinner the Chairman submitted the toasts in very brief terms . He felt no words were necessary on his part to introduce the first—that of King Edward , our Grand Protector . The mention of his Majesty ' s name called forth the heartiest applause .

In proposing the second toast—that of Her Majesty Queen Alexandra , and the other members of the Royal Family—the Chairman made special reference to the interest taken in the School bv Her Majesty at the time of its Centenary , the Hall erected to specially commemorate that event—and in which the Stewards had assembled at the prize distribution on Monday—being named the " Alexandra . "

Now came the toast of the M . W . the Grand Master . Earl Amherst said they knew His Royal Highness iliad filled many eminent Offices in Freemasonry , with benefit to the Order , and they looked forward to his installation 'as head of the Craft , in July next .

In proposing the health of the Deputy Grand Master and the rest of the Grand Officers present and past the President said the toast included those Brethren who had clone good service to the Craft in years gone by and those who were entrusted with the management of its affairs at the present .

Bro . F . S . W . Cornwalis J . G . W . responded . He had ' noticed in his daily paper that morning that the educational system of the country was shortly to be revolutionised , but the proposition would not apply to the work of the Royal Masonic Institution for Girls , as it was self contained and seemed to him to be near perfection .

He fe . lt it impossible for him to do justice to the toast in the presence of the many older and more distinguished Grand Officers lie saw standing around him at that table . He trusted they would all feel with him the great honour conferred on them in their appointment to Grand Lodge honours . For himself he would say thanks , and ever thanks .

The Chairman next approached the toast of the evening—Success to the Royal Masonic Institution for Girls . He said he had hitherto disposed of the toasts with considerable brevity , but this required something more at his hands . The Institution they had met to support that night boasted considerable antiquity , and although they could not say that King Solomon was consulted as to the design , or that Hiram Abiff drew the plans , yet they could

go back considerably over one hundred years and find it still doing a good work . During its first year ' s existence the income was ^ 471 . In 17 Q 5 new schools were found to be necessary , and the number of the inmates was increased to thirty . The work still progressed , until at the time of the jubilee of the Institution , in 1 S 3 S . about seventy girls were being educated , and the Jubilee Festival resulted in the then unparalleled sum of ^ 1 . 000 . He had JJU doubt the Brethren of that clay , who kept this light of Free *
