As most of you know, W.B. Errol Hawksley has moved back to Pennsylvania. While he was here, he
played many important parts in this Lodge. There was a going away party for him a few days before
he left, however, I was not able to attend and, therefore, did not get to say good bye to him. One of
the parts he played in this Lodge was taking care of our Masonic Education before our Stated Meet-
ings and it is in that spirit that I present you with this article. When I read it, I was reminded of Errol
and this is my farewell to him. May he enjoy his time in Pennsylvania, and I, as well as most of you,
will miss him.
We have heard a great deal about the wages of a Fellowcraft. It is, as Master Masons, that we labor
as Masons. Then, why are we taught nothing about the wages of a Master Mason?
The reason we do not find wages of a Master Mason described is undoubtedly the same reason that
explains lack of interpretation of our Symbols. As each Brother must find his own interpretation for
a Symbol, so must each find for himself his wages of a Master Mason. One Brother may not be paid
in the same wages as another. One may receive wages in the gratitude of one for whom he has per-
formed an act of charity. Another may receive wages in the joy that comes from having brought
cheer into a sick room. Another may receive wages in the appreciation of Brethren to whom he has
imparted something of Masonic knowledge. Another may receive wages in the gratitude of a Broth-
er’s family to whom he has been a mainstay during their hour of grief. Another may receive wages
in honors conferred upon him by Brethren he has faithfully served. Another may receive wages in
the friendships that have come to him through his Masonry. Another may receive wages in the satis-
faction he derives from service to others. Another may receive wages that to him seem sufficient
when he is privileged to coach someone in the lectures, or when he is given a part in the degree
work.
Wages of a Master Mason are not paid in silver or gold, or any articles of commerce and trade that
may be stolen or may deteriorate and molder through the passage of years. They are paid in those things that are secure in the hearts of his Brethren and his friends. The wages of a Master Mason have no extrinsic value. They cannot be measured by any standard by which the value of extrinsic
things are measured. Wages of a Master Mason are intrinsic, and measured only by the value placed upon them by the one who has received them.

ON THE LEVEL
We are always listening to, or involved in the conversation about new member growth and retention.
And everyone of course has their own ideas on the subject, if their even interested. From the Grand Lodge all the way to our latest initiate.
Not one person ever joined Masonry because George Washington was a mason.
Not one person ever joined Masonry because John Wayne was a Mason. (well maybe)
Not one person ever joined because of any of our great Masonic heroes.
Joining doesn’t make you any of those people.
Not one person ever joined in order to give a million dollars a day to charity, or homes or crippled children, you don’t have to be a member
to give money.
Not one person ever joined because our ritual is outstanding, or our lodge minutes are accurate, or a hundred other things we worry
about, they don’t know about our ritual or our monthly business dealings.
They joined because someone they knew and admired was a mason. It could have been a father a friend a man down the street, or some
one a thousand miles away. Who, it didn’t matter.
They admired him and wanted to do the things he did, and they did it by the millions.
In my case, it was worshipful brother Errol Hawksley, My mentor, brother and friend.
He moved back to Pennsylvania, to be close to his daughters and grandkids, he will be missed.
God bless him.
Want to help our growth?
Be the kind of man someone admires. Someone will notice.
I hope to see you all in lodge
Sincerely and Fraternally,
Bob Cole

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was twenty-eight years of age when, in the autumn of 1784, he joined a Masonic Lodge. As a pianist, little Wolfgang had been an infant prodigy, exhibited by his father throughout Europe, but he was now a recognized and admired composer living in Vienna. The very year of his initiation his first great opera, The Marriage of Figaro, had been produced in Paris. This was, however, before the days of copyright law and the earnings of genius were meager.
During the eighteenth century, Freemasonry in Vienna had a political as well as a benevolent side. It counted as its members many highly placed politicians and ecclesiastics whose ideal was the regeneration of humanity by moral means. It was hated by the Catholic Church and certain despotic political authorities who deemed it dangerous, both to religion and the well being of the state. The Church, however, even as today in certain Latin countries, did not consider it expedient to challenge high-placed per sons nominally its members but also of the Fraternity. The Empress Maria Theresa had been one who was opposed to Masonry and, in 1743, had ordered a Viennese Lodge raided, forcing its Master and her husband, Francis I, to make his escape by a secret staircase. The Emperor Joseph II (1780-90) was favorably inclined to the
Fraternity, although the clergy did their best to get the Lodges suppressed. Such was the Masonic milieu when Wolfgang Mozart became a Master Mason. He must have been greatly moved and inspired by his ex-perience. Almost immediately he composed his Freemasons Funeral Music and his music for the opening and closing of a Lodge. He now composed his opera, Don Giovanni, and his three great symphonies - the E flat, the G minor and the C major, as well as a great number of concertos and chamber-music works. His last great opera, The Magic Flute, opened in Vienna on the evening of September 30, 1791. Mozart conducted the first two perfor-mances, when he was overtaken by his last illness. He lingered on while the opera had an unprecedented run of more than one hundred consecutive performances. It is said that in his sick bed, watch in hand, he would follow in imagination the performance of The Magic Flute in the theatre. Then he died after its 67th performance. The Magic Flute makes no mention of Freemasonry as such, but it has always been accepted as a Masonic opera. Musicians assert that even the music has much Craft significance, beginning in the overture with its three solemn chords in the brass. In keeping with the fashion of the time, the plot is half-serious, half-comic, a fantasy of magic and mystery laid in a never-never land called Egypt. It depicts the ancient mysteries and presents much Craft symbolism. To the Viennese of that day, The Queen of the, Night was clearly the unfriendly Empress Maria Theresa; the good Sarasto was Ignas von Born, an eminent scientist and Masonic leader; the hero Tamino was the good Emperor Joseph and the heroine Pamina, the Austrian people themselves. The first program credited the libretto to the actor-producer, Schikaneder, but it is now thought that it was written by Giesceke, the friend and intimate of Goethe and Schiller, who probably desired to remain anonymous for political reasons. The opera has remained popular through the years and is included in the present repertoire of the Metropolitan Opera Company.
Sincerely and Fraternally,

As we come to the end of this Cryptic year, I want to thank all the Companions of Stewart Council for giving me the privilege of serving as the Illustrious
Master. I also want to thank all of the Companions who served as Officers in the Council this past year. This year has flown by rather quickly, we had a cou-
ple of projects that we worked on this past year. The raffle for the TV was successful; I want to thank the Companions who were out there selling the tick-
ets. We made a few bucks for the Council, and should be able to make a good donation to the CMMRF fund. The Table Council dinner was also a success,
and a lot of fun. I want to thank Pat Hayes for being the chef for the evening, it was a great meal. I also want to thank our most Illustrious Grand Master of
Cryptic Masons of Arizona, William Anderson Garrard Junior, for attending.
As you may know, we had our elections at our April meeting. Doug Robertson was elected Illustrious Master, Mark Nelson was elected Deputy Master,
Brian Turner was elected Principal Conductor of the work. Pat Hayes was elected Recorder, and Dave Miller as Treasurer. The installation of the officers
will be at our May meeting; this is due to Doug and Dave being out of town.
Thank you

At our April 4th meeting, we only had 1 star point thank goodness we had enough side-liners to fill the chairs for us. We even used one of our new members as Sentinel.
We honored Past Matrons and Past Patrons with a poem and rose. The friends of the chapter the last 2 meetings were Shery Goodman and Daina Montgomery for all they do for our chapter.
The main topic was our "Mad Hatters Tea" April 22. 1-3 pm. $12.00 donation. It is always a special fun day.

We were saddened at the loss of Ken Owens, our new member, Iris, husband.
Fiesta Day was again a great and fun day and thanks to anyone who helped in any way, especially Daina Montgomery the chair for such a successful event.

Peoria CHAPTER 59 ORDER OF THE EASTERN STAR
An enjoyable evening was had for those who attended the Farewell Dinner for our Worthy Matron and Worthy Patron, held at the Iron Works Restaurant on April 14th. A good time was had by all – lots of good food and plenty of fun and fellowship. We have had a very busy year under the leadership of Worthy Matron, Laura Arena and Worthy Patron, Paul Zimmerman. A big “Thank You” goes to them and congratulations on a job well done.
Our May 10th meeting will be a potluck dinner at 6pm followed by our 7:30pm meeting where we will have Election of Officers and honor Mothers. I am sure we will have a few annual reports from the various chairmen who like to be the early birds. Our Farewell meeting will be May 24th with all final reports due at that time. Peoria Chapter will have an open installation on May 27th at 2pm. All are welcome to join us as we turn over the gavel to a new regime of officers where we will celebrate Christmas all year long as Sister Lois has chosen for her theme “Jesus is the Reason; Santa is the Season”.
Sister Sandy Martin who was our Crisis Chair this year did a fantastic job for us in collect-ing the travel size shampoos, lotions, conditioners, etc to fill the 400 hygiene bags for A New Leaf Crisis Center. If you have extras that you don’t know what to do with, give us a call and we will take them off your hands!
Please continue to keep in your prayers Rosemary and John Bennet with Rosemary being in Rehab, Betty Osborne, Carol Jones, Karen Klus, Bob and Connie Townsend with various health issues. Also remember our military and first responders who are in harm’s way.
Love, trust, friendliness, and courage are some of life’s lessons taught by our Mothers. Happy Mother’s Day to all Mothers!
