MA KA JA WAN LODGE 40 EXAMPLES
The Example Tradition:
At the Christmas Banquet, December 12, 1932, the Lodge
established a fine tradition of the Example. This was to honor a Scout of the Brotherhood
honor who had best exemplified Cheerful Service, to take the ordeal along with
the new candidates. In 1960, the only addition was to have two examples, one
from each camp. -40th Anniversary Lodge History
1969
The tradition of the Example is one of the oldest and finest in
the Ma-Ka-Ja-Wan Lodge. The notion of having a BROTHERHOOD
or VIGIL member take the Ordeal along with the Candidates is in the
finest tradition of Brotherhood, Cheerfulness, and Service. Because of this, it
is considered to be a great honor to be selected to represent the Lodge in this
way.
The selection of the Examples is the power of the Chief alone.
No One is to be Example more than once. If
someone is called out to be Example but can not serve
as one, he shall be considered to have been Example at his first opportunity.
