INSTITUTED NOVEMBER 24, 1922     Enthusiasm, "That’s Us"   STATED MEETINGS FIRST, THIRD AND FIFTH FRIDAYS OF EACH MONTH MASONIC TEMPLE STAPLETON, STATEN ISLAND, NEW YORK           "Hail guest". We ask not what thou art; If friend, we greet thee hand and heart If stranger, such no longer be; If foe, our love shall conquer thee. If there is any place in the world where cordiality and good fellowship should reign supreme it is at our Chapter Meetings. If you are not acquainted with those who sit beside you then the true spirit of the Eastern Star is not present. "Get busy." Wear a smile, and say "Sister my name is ....... What is yours?" The happiness derived from doing deeds of kindness is the highest the purest, and the most lasting of human enjoyments.   Officers for 1931 May L.
