The " Old Masonians."
THE " OLD MASONIANS . "
A BRIEF , but interesting report of the doings of the " Old Boys' ? from our School at Wood Green has just been issued , and it is only due that we shonld congratulate the President , Bro . Frederick Binckes , and the Committee upon the very satisfactory position of affairs which they are able to announce . The Association was established just a year ago , the main object being to keep together
the pupils of the Boys Institution after they had left the School and thus to retain that eapirt de corps which is so essential amongst members of all similar communities . When the lads leave the hands of the Head Master , who has done his best to fortify them for the battle of life , they are by no means lost sight of . The
same kindly consideration which attended their early school days follows them after they have passed through their course of training and thus we find that they are brought together in frequent communication now that they are ranked with the seniors . It is almost impossible to expect that every boy on quitting the school should
become a member of the Association . By the accident of circumstances some are drawn away to distant parts of the country , or even abroad , while others may be placed in such a position as to render it inconvenient for them to become attached members . Nevertheless , we cannot but think the old pupils are all heartily in unison with the
aim of the Association so timely conceived and so assiduously promoted by Bro . Binckes , and that so many as seventy-four of the Old Boys have enrolled themselves as members is a most convincing proof that they desire its success , and the practical support given by several Freemasons on the occasion of the annual dinner augurs well
for the future of the Association . During the winter season social evenings have been held at Anderton's Hotel , Fleet Street , and these are pronounced in the report as having been " generally successful and satisfactory to all concerned ; " and thanks are tendered to those gentlemen who have always shown themselves willing to assist in
making those evenings so thoroughly enjoyable . The annual dinner , the proceedings at which were reported in our columns at the time , was not attended by as many members as was hoped , but the Com . mittee express their belief that the absence of many of the boys was not due to any lack of interest in the Association , but rather their
inabilit y to attend . The President , Bro . F . Binckes , was supported on the occasion by several Freemasons , who , at the close of the dinner , following the example set by the Chairman , contributed in all nineteen guineas to the funds . According to the balance-sheet , the Association is iu a fairly good financial position . The
preliminary expenses were of necessity heavy ; and , though the funds will benefit to this amount next year , the Committee point out that the increase of members correspondingly increases their ability to be practicall y useful . They , therefore , urge upon all members to make
known the existence of the Association , and thereby add to its numbers . Anyone interested in this movement—and it is one which should have tho cordial sympathy and support of the Craftinay learn particulars on application to the hon , sec , Mr . Alfred Watkins , 6 , Brussels Road , New Wandsworth , S . W .
The St . Cecilia Lodge gave a garden party on Tuesday tost , at the Royal Pavilion , Brighton , the western lawn and the lower rooms being devoted to the purpose . Invitations ¦ were sent out to all the leading Masons of the Province , at > a several hundreds were present . In the evening the grounds were brilliantly illuminated .
