The subjects most suitable for discussion here are those which have a bearing, direct or indirect, on the practice of the Craft in N.S.W.
A careful perusal of the Book of Constitutions, the By-laws and the Ritual will suggest a great many subjects, all of considerable interest, and on most of which there is room for differences of opinion and scope for different lines of thought and investigation.
These subjects may be treated in all or any of the following ways :-
1. DESCRIPTIVE.—Describing what is done in Lodges working under the U.G.L. N.S.W., and pointing out differences of practice which are known to exist. This will afford an opportunity for other brethren, especially those who have done much visiting or acted as I. of W., to give instances from their experience.
2. COMPARATIVE.—Comparing the practice in N.S.W. with what is, or has been, done in Lodges working under other constitutions.
3. HISTORICAL. — Showing how the practice arose.
4. CRITICAL. Dealing with any objections that may be urged against our present practice.
