The wearing of the Square and Compasses carries with it those demands which distinguish the Mason from others in the community.
It is an emblem of honor. It stands for stability of purpose. It speaks the words: "My trust is in God."
It means respect for womanhood.
It means loyalty to country, both in time of peace and in time of war.
It means obedience to law and opposition to all forms of violence and hate.
It means that the wearer is trustworthy.
It means that the wearer's honor and reputation are concerned in supporting with dignity the character he bears, the emblem he displays and the Fraternity he represents.
Let us wear the Square and Compasses proudly.
