                                 Preliminary Note


                      The Legion is a system which can be thrown out of
                    balance by sup pres s ing or altering any of its parts. Of it,
                    could the following verse have been written:-

                      “Pluck one thread, and the web ye mar;
                      Break but one
                      Of a thousand keys, and the paining jar
                      Through all will run.”
                                                          (Whittier)

                      So, if unprepared to work the system exactly as described
                    in these pages, please do not start the Legion at all. In this
                    connection read carefully chapter 20 “The Legion System
                    Invariable”.

                      Without affiliation to the Legion (through one of its
                    approved Councils) there is no Legionary membership.
                      If past experience is an indication, no branch of the
                    Legion which is worked faithfully according to rule will
                    fail.
