The Platform Of Freemasonry.
THE PLATFORM OF FREEMASONRY .
THE cardinal virtues of Masonry are Temperance , Fortitude , Prudence , and Justice . Each one of these constitutes a plank of equal importance in the Masonic platform . Securely dovetailed together after the plan of a wise architect and builder , and strengthened with the cement of love and unity , they form a structure not only strong , but enduring . With its corners resting upon four imperishable stones , Brotherly
Love , Belief , Truth , and Charity , firmly planted upon the solid rock of Fatherhood of God and Brotherhood of man , it forms a foundation for the institution of Freemasonry that has stood the test of many centuries past , and will endure till time shall be no more . It has needed no repairs in the past ; does not need
any in the present , and will never need any in the future . Time adds but to its strength , and years to its durability . The wavea of fanaticism break harmlessly over it , the wind of bigotry cannot shake it , nor the fires of intolerance destroy it . All these elements of discord and dissolution are powerless to accomplish its destruction . Freemasonry has nothing to fear from its
enemies without , so long as Masons are true to the noble principles which constitute its foundation , and which are found in every stone in this beautiful Mystic Temple , even up to the capstone itself . To be true to them they must have a thorough knowledge of their import , and this information is essential to a proper discharge of their duties as Masons . In Operative Masonry no one can become a skilful workman who does not
apply himself diligently * during the term of his apprenticeship , and the same is equally true in Speculative Masonry . Masons must learn Masonry before they properly practice it themselves or teach it to others . This cannot be done in a day , a month , or a year ; but years of study are necessary . Some learn the ritual quickly and think that is all there is of it . Others go through without learning anything at all . A few only ever become well-informed Masons . In this lack of Masonic
knowledge among so large a portion of the membership lies the greatest daDger to the Institution itself . They are in a position to do it much greater harm than those who assail it from without . Once inside they become an element of weakness , for they are just as liable to go wrong as right . They have never learned how to observe the cardinal virtues of Masonry , or to practice the tenets of their profession . They are apt to think the platform needs some changes or repairs , and imagine
themselves competent to furnish the plans . Some seem to think the Temperance plank of mors iixiportance than all the rest , and are ready to sacrifice Prudence and Justice in their efforts to enlarge its dimensions . Brotherly Love and Charity are rolled
out from under it , leaving it to topple and break in pieces . The beautiful structure , contrived by Wisdom , constructed by Strength , and adorned by Beauty , in their hands becomes a shapeless mass , with scarcely a trace of its former grandeur . Let the platform remain with air the planks as originally placed
in it . Let it continue to rest upon the four corner-stones firml y planted upon the bed rock of Masonry . Then shall Masons everywhere continue to enjoy the rich blessings that have so long been their portion , and continue to show the world how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity . — " Masonic Advocate .
