Masonic Lodge 216 Child ID at Breakfast with Santa

Newton Masonic Lodge to Host Events

On Saturday December 11th the lodge has been invited to
participate in the Jr Women’s Club Christmas Event held in the St.
Thomas Community Building on West Washington Street from 7:30
A M until 11:30 AM to offer their child Identification program. Each
will receive:
COLOR PHOTO that records an image and height and is
digitized on a convenient USB drive.
• RECORDED INTERVIEW captures the appearance,
speech patterns, personal characteristics, and mannerisms
for easy media distribution.
• A DNA SAMPLE taken through a saliva cheek swab is the
latest tool in the scientific arsenal to make positive ID’s of
lost children.
• FINGERPRINTS are the oldest form of positive
identification since they are unique to every person.
The chairman for the Masons, Nathan Lambird, stressed
that
ALL information collected is given to the family and is entirely
free of charge. Also that the program has been expanded to
include any family member regardless of age.
