‘Get the Philalethes for your lodge’

    

The Philalethes Society announces a way for Masonic groups to benefit their members by subscribing to its quarterly journal. No, not a copy of the printed edition that gets torn to pieces in the melee over who gets it first, but a PDF for your lodge (or chapter, etc.) to disseminate by email. From the publicity in the current issue:

Lodge and Appendant Bodies

Subscription Program

A New Program of Masonic Education for Every Lodge and Masonic Group

Since its founding in 1928, the Philalethes Society has been devoted to the promotion of the highest quality Masonic education and research. Eager to extend our mission of promoting quality Masonic education, the Executive Board of the Society is offering a Lodge Subscription Program.

As many Masons prefer electronic dissemination of materials, we would like to put the Philalethes journal into the hands of your lodge brothers or masonic group brothers who want to continue their quest for further Light in Masonry. For a nominal annual fee, every lodge can send out an electronic copy of the Philalethes four times a year via an email attachment of our journal in PDF format.

All we need is some basic contact information and payment made on a lodge or Masonic organization’s check. Here is a great opportunity to help your members be better informed and grow in their Masonic knowledge.

1. Distribution of Philalethes to your members via the Lodge Subscription Program may require the permission of your Grand Lodge or Appendant Body.

2. Recipients of Philalethes via electronic delivery will be considered “subscribers” rather than members of the Society, and may not use the initials MPS nor vote.

3. Only members of your lodge/body are entitled to this PDF copy of Philalethes.

4. A subscription is for one year (four issues) of Philalethes, which comes out quarterly.

5. All subscriptions to this program must be made on a lodge or appendant body check.

6. We invite your members to submit thoughtful and well-researched articles to our Editor for consideration.

7. This program is open to all lodges, research lodges, and appendant or concordant bodies of Freemasonry.

8. For further questions, please contact the Philalethes Society’s Secretary here.

     

    

I haven’t been able to interest The ALR in reviving Knickerbocker Chapter, so maybe this could be the way to involve the lodge in the Philalethes Society. We’ll see.
