THE MASONIC CALENDARS FOR 1889 . \\ e have not had sufficient time lately to do more than acknowledge the receipt of the following " handy-books " of information in respect of the organization of sundry Provincial Grand Lodges , and even now cannot do more than briefly review them .

Its lists of grand officers , past and present , or officers of private lodges , and even of members of the latter , are voluminous , and cannot fail to be of interest to every Freemason in the province .
