apathetic support from the general Masonic body . Take the associations formed for the purpose of securing life governorships to subcribers by payment of the small sum of one shilling per week . Most of them are
languishing for want of co-operation , some , it is true , are prosperous , but that is owing to the steady industry and activity of the managers , for if tlie collecting of the weekly subscriptions was left to the members , total collapse would speedily result .
We may safely take it for granted that every brother would be glad to contribute to the extent of his power towards the institutions , and the question to determine is , how can these small amounts be effectively and inexpensively
collected . I do not know whether what I am about to suggest is practicable , but to mention it can do harm , namely , that the Grand Lodge should enact a regulation to make it imperative for every subscribing member to
pay , besides his lodge dues , an additional tive shillings for and towards the charities , the same to be optional to life Governors and life and annual subscribers , I am sure no member of any lodge would object to so trifling an extra charge .
I would also suggest that the notices for the festivals should be distributed at least a couple of months prior to the event , to allow ample time for intending Stewards to visit lodges and chapters , to enable them to secure subscriptions .
I heartily join Bro . Coates in his demand " Will some distinguished brother take the lead ? " An authoritative appeal to the brethren cannot fail to succeed . 1 have never found unwillingness on the part of any individual member
to support the charities , and with rare exceptions have I ever asked in vain . Some weeks ago I visited a lodge where an appeal to support the private Benevolent Fund was at once responded to by subscriptions amounting to £ 26 Js .
Therefore we may conclude that were opportunity given , the claims of the charities made conspicuous , and kindred measures adopted , brethren might display their glittering jewels and participate in the joys of the banquetting
table , and yet assist in making Masonry , pure and simple , a living reality . Like many others , Bro . Coates has some idea that love of display and a good appetite are incompatable with a sympathetic heart and
benevolent spirit . Those who observe know well the contrary to be the case . Bro . Coates ' s letter will have done good seivice , if it only provokes discussion upon this important question . Yours fraternally , E . GoTTiiKiL , P . M . and P . Z .
To the Editor of the Freemason . Dear Sir and Brother , The following extract may be interesting to some of your readers , It is taken from an
article in " Macmillan ' s Magazine" for February , 1870 , on the "Constitution , " promulgated by Pius IX at the beginning of the twenty-first CEcumenical Council . Speaking of the Bulla Coenae , the writer ( Emanuel Deutsch ) says
;" Then came Clement XIV , who abrogated it , and then—exactly a hundred years later-Pius IX , who renewed it in the shape now before us . We can but briefly g lance at the rest of the edict , which embodies what obsolete
"extra" cases it has been deemed proper thus solemnly to revive , referring such of our readers as are eager for some details to Mansi , Phillips , Hefele , Lc Bret , Hausmann , Raumer , and the acts and histories of the Church
generally Cursed are , fuither , all Freemasons and Carbonari . It was at the Council of Avignon , in 1325 , that all secret societies were first condemned . But Freemasons , as such , of whose existence Clement XII . had heard a
rumour , " were especially anathematized by him in a Bull . And the Inquisitors received strict orders to look after the orthodoxy of the supposed brethren . Benedict XIV renewed this " Constitution , " giving six reasons for so doing , and its
last Papal confirmation dates 1 S 46 , and is signed Pius IX . " The date of the latest allocution against secret societies ( Freemasons , Fenians , & c . ) is , I believe , Sept . 25 , 1865 .

It appears then that Father Cuff ; , in refusing to bury a deceased Freemason , was justified by the laws of his church . However much , therefore , we deplore the continued hostility of the Roman Catholic Hierarchy to a society founded on the great principles of brotherly love , relief
and truth—objects which tbe Church itself professes to aim at—we must not too hastily , ourselves failing for a moment in . that Christian , charity which thinketh no evil , condemn as unwarrantable the conduct of a priest , who is bound to obey his ecclesiastical superiors . His practice
is simply in accordance with the preaching of the Roman Catholic Church . We can onl y confess with regret , that , to apply the concluding words of the article above referred to , " they are both signs of the times as singular as they are humiliating . " Yours faithfully and fiaternally , H . C . L .
