Bro. Edgar J Rutter, the Deputy Provincial Grand Master in the presence of R.W. Bro. The Rt. Hon. The Lord Swansea, who at the time was the Provincial Grand Master Designate. There were 26 Founder Members and </span><a href="3775.htm"><span style='font-family:Arial'>Cardiff Exchange Lodge No 3775</span></a><span style='font-family:Arial'> sponsored the Lodge.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p><span style='font-family:Arial'>The idea of a Lodge connected with youth organisations was first put forward by W. Bro. D E J Davies, who was a past Chairman of the Boys' Clubs of Wales. There were some tentative meetings leading after some months to a more general meeting to expand the original idea and to outline the aims of the proposed Lodge. Some of those attending had connections with the Boys' Clubs of Wales and the rest with Scouting affiliations.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p><span style='font-family:Arial'>Various names for the Lodge were proposed and eventually the name Pro Juventante was chosen, but as this was not grammatical Latin, the more simple title <i>"Juventus"</i> was agreed.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p><span style='font-family:Arial'>The Lodge Badge was created by a Founder member, W. Bro. John I Brown, and shows 'the torch of learning, held by a young hand, leading the way to enlightenment'. In other words the path to the future lit by the hand of youth. This symbolism was carried a stage further by the motto, in Welsh, <i>"Gwelediaeth Nid Breuddwyd"</i>, which is translated as <i>"Visions Not Dreams"</i>. Youth having a vision of what the future may be, not the dreams of those with their lives behind them*.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p><span style='font-family:Arial'>The Lodge was formed without any knowledge of the Kindred Lodges Association (an association of Lodges throughout the Craft who are connected with youth work and the youth movement). It was not until 1989 when they became aware that there was to be a Festival meeting hosted by </span><a href="8991.htm"><span style='font-family:Arial'>Sure and Steadfast Lodge No 8991</span></a><span style='font-family:Arial'> in Cardiff that enquiries were made and they were welcomed into the Association.
