THE BISHOP OF RIPON ON MASONRY .
rp ^ HE Brethren of the Provincial Grand Lodge of Mark X Masons of West Yorkshire held their half-yearly meeting at-Ripon , on Wednesday , 12 th inst , in the Town Hall , under the banner of the Prince Leopold Ledge , No . 352 .
The ladies included in the part ) - —which numbered nearly 200—were received by the Mayoress ( Mrs . R . Wilkinson ) in the Mayor ' s Parlour , and during the transaction of business visited the cathedral , where Dr . Crow gave an organ recital .
Luncheon was served at the- Unicorn Hotel , under the presidency of the Provincial Grand Master Bro . C . L . Mason . There were also present the Bishop of Ripon and Mrs . Boyd
Carpenter , the Hon . and Very Rev . the Dean of Ripon , the Mayor and Mayoress of Ripon ( Bro . and Mrs . Wilkinson ) , and others . After the Queen , the Provincial Grand Master gave the toast of the Visitors .
The Bishop of Ripon , in reply , said that he could not address them as " Brethren , " as he had not made any degrees in Masonry , and could not even claim to be a " step-brother ; " but at the best he might be a "brother-in-law . " He had wondered why the Provincial Grand Master invited him to
the gathering , and the only reason he could discover was that no good Mason could ever do without a Carpenter . At any rate , he was sure that the spirit of co-operation , which , after all , was the underlying power of almost all charitable and noble endeavour , animated both those who , like himself ,
stood outside , as well as those who were members of that illustrious body , and it was a co-operation which might be used for the real regeneration of humanity . And if the mason and the carpenter co-operated in building the house ,
those who belonged to his profession and calling , and those who were united in that noble Brotherhood , might claim to share some portion of the same great work , for all they had in view was the welfare , the dignity , and the progress of the human race .
The Dean of Ripon also responded , and said he was certain that if they could penetrate the mysteries of Freemasonry , they would find nothing but was good and pleasant and beneficent .

INSTALLATION AT THE UPTON LODGE .
BRO . WALTER JAMES CARROLL ,
WORSHIPFUL IYIASTER OF THE UPTON LODGE , NO . 1227 . THE installation meeting of the popular Upton Lodge took place on Thursday , and is fully reported elsewhere in this issue . The new Master—Brother W . J . Carroll— -was initiated in the Lodge of which he is now the Presiding Officer , in November 1893 , and has worked through each of
its Offices with the exception of that of Junior Warden . He is also a member of the Earl of Warwick Lodge , No . 2504 , and of the Doric Chapter , No . 933 , and enjoys the distinction of being the youngest Master ever installed in the Upton Lodge . He is a warm supporter of the Charities , having
already served two Stewardships—for the Boys , at its Centenary Festival ; and for the Girls last year ; he has also consented to act as a Steward on behalf of the Benevolent Institution next February , and is looking forward to a good
list on that occasion . We wish him every success in his high Office , plenty of work , and the hearty support of his fellow members—three things he is as certain of as any Master can be at the earliest stage of his presidency .
The ceremony of installation will be worked on Thursday evening next , at the Great City Lodge of Instruction , held at the Red Cross Tavern and Resaurant , Paternoster Fquare , by the popular Preceptor of the Lodge Bro . J . K . Gwyn P . M . 1426 .
