In the design, the cross and square are so intertwined as to be inseparable. This is the finest illustration of the idea of Kinsmenship, for Kin is a word of relationship. It suggests the intercrossing and interlacing of the lives and tasks of Kinsmen. Kinsmen recognize the interpretation of one life with another and this design stands as a protest against isolation and separation as between Kinsmen, said a Kinsmen spokesman. This part of the emblem stands for integrity or character. The maple leaves and the name scroll are emblematic of the 10 Canadian provinces, denoting the national scope of the organization.

• A spirit of fellowship, a genuine willingness to accept differences between human beings, to see their points of view and to become better acquainted with fellow members. This is Kinship.
• Regular attendance to the best of your ability. You will be expected to contribute as much time as you can afford to the Club's work and social functions. Our club meets once a month.
