Order of Business
At stated communications:
First. Reading the minutes.
Second. Considering unfinished business.
Third. Receiving and referring petitions.
Fourth. Receiving report of committees.
Fifth. Balloting for candidates.
Sixth. Receiving and considering resolutions.
Seventh. Conferring degrees.
At called meetings no business should be taken up except that for which the meeting was called.
The 24th of June and 27th of December are regular meetings, but it is not best to take up routine business. Let it be a celebration, and not a business session.
