TO KEEP HIS MASONIC OFFICE?

London, Feb. 23.

Will King Edward resign bis masonic office as Provincial Grand Master for Surrey now that he has ascended the throne?

His resignation is in no zense automatic as King he can do as

be pleases.

It is possible that he may follow the precedent of King Edward VII, who resigned from the position of Grand Master of the United Lodge in 1901, but then became Protec- tor of the Order.

*

The King is also the Worshipful Master of the Lodge of Friendship and Harmony at Esher. It was in July last that he accepted the Mastership, but he has been a re- gular subscribing member to that Lodge since he became Provincial Grand Master of Burrey nearly twelve years agú

Last year he was also elected Grand Master Mason of Scotland, and it was then arranged that he should be installed at Edinburgh in November. That arrangement was altered, and it is not expected that the Installation will now take place, Whether or not the King realgns from these offices, he will still be long to the Order, for once a Mason always a Mason:
