 June 1990 e.v. at Thelema Lodge with advance dates for July.....

    Thelema Lodge wishes to express thanks to David Jones for the good work
 that he did as Lodge Master of Thelema Lodge.  Brother David took charge at a
 difficult time and experienced the worst time, bar one, in the history of the
 Lodge.  Brother Mordecai is the new Master of Thelema Lodge.  He is known
 throughout the O.T.O., not least for his service as an officer of Grand Lodge.
 And now a word from 'is nibs:

                          INITIATION POLICY STATEMENT

    Thelema Lodge is instituting some new approaches in its initiations
 procedures. From now on we will be adhering strictly to the order-wide policy
 requiring applications for initiation to be submitted 40 days in advance of
 the proposed initiation.  Minerval applications will receive a little leeway,
 but waivers of the 40 day requirement will no longer be routinely granted for
 other initiations.  If there is a special reason then a waiver may still be
 granted by the National Supreme Council, but it will be the responsibility of
 the candidate and/or their initiator to obtain permission.  The lodge will no
 longer request waivers as a matter of course.  Applications for initiation are
 available at the lodge, by mail, or by calling me (your Initiations Clerk!) at
 [phone].  Please leave your name, address, and degree sought with the
 mechanical slave, and we'll mail you the appropriate form.
    A new series of Initiator Training classes, two Friday evenings each month,
 will begin in June.  See the Calendar for exact dates, and degrees, on which
 we will be working.  Because of the attitude of the Electoral College, O.T.O.
 members in the Bay Area must demonstrate special competence in order to be
 recommended by them for a charter to initiate.  Therefore the lodge is setting
 up these classes in order to enable members to familiarize themselves with the
 various officer roles, through Master Magician.  Members who perform well, in
 practices and at actual initiations, will be strenuously sponsored when they
 decide to apply for a charter to initiate.  All local members who are already
 chartered to do Man of Earth initiations are strongly urged to contact the
 Initiations Clerk and volunteer to help train new initiators.  Here is an
 opportunity to serve your brethren!

 FROM THE GRADY PROJECT

 (N.B.:  This issue we printed a sheet of music with lyrics by Grady McMurtry,
 Title: "The Combat Engineers".  It was originally published in "The Military
 Engineer, March 1944 e.v.  This is deleted from the Electronic Edition in as
 much as the musical notation doesn't work in ASCII and the lyrics don't work
 without the music.  Available from Thelema Lodge in the printed copy.)

   The entire universe in which most of us live is just one leaf in an immense
 forest, the Big View Eternal Park. Inhabiting this forest are well over ten
 times the largest conceivable number of fairies. These are fair
