The Bishop of Mashonalancl , in an address delivered recently at a Masonic service held in St . John the Baptist Church , Bulawayo , concludes with the following eloquent tribute to patriotism of the Brotherhood : — " Brethren , our
Order is not without splendid examples of true patriotism . Men known and men nameless have again and again done honour to the Craft by their glorious devotion to God and country .

attended the Masonic lodge in Bloemfontein and showed that true Brotherhood which underlies all differences of nationality and religion in the principles of Freemasonry , and it should be a subject of loyal and Masonic congratulation that during the whole siege of Mafeking our brethren did not fail to hold lodge under the presidency of its Worshipful Master . The
Temple riddled with the shells of the enemy resounded with the eternal principles of the brotherhood of man and the fatherhood of God—principles which are at once the sanction and the substance of all true patriotism , the justification of our Order , and its highest and deepest , its first and final inspiration , summed up in the words of the text , '' Honour all Men , Love the Brotherhood , Fear God , Honour the King .

Bro . Fred W . Robinson , whose portrait we give , is one of the many active Masons to be found at such Military and Naval stations as Gibraltar and Malta , who , should they be fortunate to remain there for any considerable time , almost invariably take advantage of their opportunities , and make

Chapter of the same name , while in the Scottish Constitution he occupies the chair of D . D . M . in Al Mogbred Lodge , is a member of St .
