��BY BRO. HENRY O. KENT.

��(Written as a sentiment at a public banquet of North Star and visiting Lodges, at Lancaster, on the Festival ot St John the Evangelist, A. l. 5s»0.)

��There's mony a badge that's unco braw,

Wi' ribbon, lace or tape on ; Let Kings and Princes wear them a', Gi'e me the Master's Apron !

The honest Craftsman's apron. The joUjr Free Mason's apron. Bide he at hame or i-oam afar. Before its touch fa's bolt and bar. The gates of Fortune fly ajar, 'Gin he but wears the apron !

��For wealth and honor, pride and power.

Are crumbling stanes to base on. Fraternity suld rule the liour, Amang all wortby Masons, All Free Accepted Masons, All Ancient Crafted Masons. Then Britiiers let a halesome sang, Arise your friendly ranks alang, Gudewives and Bairnies blithely sing To the ancient badge wi' the apron string. That is worn by the master mason.
