Why Your Friend Asked You To Read This
     Your friend is proud of Freemasonry and the fine 
character of its members.  He believes that you have the qualities for membership 
and that you deserve the opportunity to know more about it.
     These texts will explain what Freemasonry is, who Freemasons are, what they believe 
in and what they do. It is important for you to know that those who desire 
membership must seek it on their own.  Unfortunately, without this 
understanding, many qualified men have not enjoyed the special rewards of membership 
and fellowship in Freemasonry.  If after reading these texts, you have any questions 
or desire to know more about Freemasonry, your friend will be pleased to answer your 
questions or obtain the answers for you.
     Whether or not you decide to seek membership in Freemasonry, you can be certain that 
you have a special friend within the Masonic Fraternity who thinks very highly of 
you.  It is a message of kindness...from FRIEND TO FRIEND!
