III
ten distinguished guests, representing four jurisdictions in addition to our own. Annually the Grand Lodge of Missouri is pleased to extend honored guest recognition to those of its own brethren who have distinguished themselves by attaining the highest offices in the York and Scottish Rite bodies of this jurisdiction. Also, The Grand Lodge is pleased to include in its guest list such other representatives of affiliated Masonic groups as the Grand Master may designate. The committee has endeavored to extend a personal welcome to each, and to make the services of its members available to our guests at all times. We trust that our efforts have made their brief visit among us more pleasurable, and that each may have sensed in part the spirit of hospitality we hoped to convey. Fraternally submitted, BRUCE H.
