"To preserve the reputation of the Fraternity unsullied" is the constant responsibility of the Master Mason, for he is Freemasonry to many people in the circle of influence which surrounds every life. An exemplary life is the best means by which we can discharge our individual responsibility to our own Lodge in particular and to Freemasonry in general. The conduct of each Master Mason is strictly his own responsibility; he should choose the course which will bring credit to himself and honor to the Fraternity.
