Installation Meeting Of The Barnato Lodge, No. 2265.
Installation Meeting of the Barnato Lodge , No . 2265 .
THE annual installation meeting of this lodge , named after the well known financier , the late Bro . "Barney" Barnato being amongst the founders , was held on Tuesday , the 17 th May , at the International Hall of the Cafe iMonico , Piccadilly . The crest of the lodge consists of a diamond—a sample of those to be found in the group of South African mines
controlled by the famous firm whose name the lodge bears . The principal business of the evening , namely , the installation of Bro . J . B . Joel as Worshipful Master , having been successfully accomplished , a vote of 20 guineas to the Royal Masonic Institution for Girls was passed . A resolution of sympathy with the relatives of the late Bro . Morris Abrahams was also placed o ' n the
minutes . Bro . Abrahams had been an enthusiastic supporter of the lodge from its formation . As President of the Omabas Benevolent Association , the late brother's good work was continued outside the Craft .
The joviality for which the Barnato Lodge is well known characterised the subsequent proceedings , presided over by Bro . J . B . Joel , W . M ., and participated in by some 150 brethren . The customary loyal and Masonic toasts having been honoured , Bro . Joel , W . M ., gave "The Health of the Grand Officers , "
coupled with the names of Bros . G . Everett , F . G . T ., and P . Colville Smith , P . G . D . Bro . Everett responded to the toast . The way in which it was always honoured at such gatherings as those could not fail to be very gratifying to the Grand Officers . The brethren had left nothing undone to show their appreciation of them . He was
personally very glad to see in the chair of the lodge one so well fitted to fill it as Bro . Joel . Under his genial sway he prophesied they would have a very happy and a very prosperous year . He would say for himself and his brother Grand Officers that they would carry away very pleasant recollections of the installation meeting of the Barnato Lodge .
The I P . M ., Bro . Isaacs , next proposed "The Health of the Worshipful Master . " They should honour him during his year of office , and would do all they could to contribute to its
prosperity . The W . M ., Bro . J . B . Joel , in reply , did not , he said , feel that he deserved so much regard as they had shown him that evening . He was painfully aware of the fact that he had for a long time forsaken their lodge . He should do his utmost to make up for his past neglect of them , and if at the end of the
year he had done sufficiently well to earn their forgiveness , he should have done well indeed . The W . M . then proceeded to the proposal of " The Health of the Initiate . " The initiate had expressed himself well pleased with his first experience of Freemasonry . Bro . M . J . Jessop , P . M ., Treas ., gave the toast of "The Visitors , " of whom there were over sixty present . It was

Charities , " with which he would connect the name of Bro . P . Colville Smith , P . G . D ., Sec . R . M . B . Inst . The Barnato Lodge lists at each of the three Festivals were not , he was glad to say , the least .

The lodge had selected the R . M . I . G . for a contribution that night . He understood that next year the institution he had the honour of representing would be the one fixed on for their support .
The toast of "The I . P . M " was next given by Bro . Townend who descanted on the merits of that brother's work . In response , Bro . Isaacs expressed his pleasure at having done well enough to merit their approbation . In giving the toast of "The Past Masters , " Bro . Joel , W . M ., asked Bro . Honey to respond . That brother replied with further compliments to the W . M . The
toast of " The Officers of the Lodge " called forth a brief and business-like speech from Bro . Jessop , P M ., the Treasurer . The Senior and Junior Wardens having also replied , Bro . Humphrey Phillips , P . M ., Secretary , concluded the response . It stimulated those who did work for the lodge of which the major part of the brethren could not well be aware , to be received so
