  • Phi Beta Delta and Rituals' Rewards
    International Research and Review, Journal of Phi Beta Delta Honor Society Volume 9, Number 1, Fall 2019 for International Scholars Editor's Note: The following article is reprinted (with updated format and editing) from the archives of the Phi Beta Delta International Review, Volume VII, Spring 1998, pp. 75-86. The International Review is the predecessor of the current publication. It is re-printed here to provide international educators with an historical view of scholarship on honor societies. Phi Beta Delta and Rituals’ Rewards Guillermo De Los Reyes University of Houston Paul Rich Policy Studies Organization The growth of Phi Beta Delta cannot be attributed to any one cause. World interest in globalization and in cultural and education exchanges, along with the happy coincidence of a number of enthusiastic leaders, is certainly part of the explanation. However, it was the decision that it should be a Greek honorary society with the accompanying rituals of the Greek tradition which was a fateful for its success.1 Injunctions to chapters to have a meaningful induction ceremony take on more weight when Phi Beta Delta is put into historic perspective as an organization with ritual - not an enormous amount, but then, like garlic, a little goes a long way. Although Greek academic societies are not nearly as concerned with ritual as are other ritualistic organizations such as, the Freemans, the Shriners, or the DeMolay, their success owes something to the medals, mottos and shields. What would Phi Beta Kappa be without its key? Organizations with ritual often fare better than those without. It is an unpleasant corollary, but makes the point, to recall that the segregationist White Citizens’ Councils members with their business suits never achieved the success of the Ku Klux Klan with its hoods and flowing robes.

  • Masonic and Odd Fellows Halls (Left) on Main Street, Southwest Harbor, C
    Masonic and Odd Fellows Halls (left) on Main Street, Southwest Harbor, c. 1911 Knights ofPythias Hall, West Tremont Eden Parish Hall in Salisbury Cove, which may have been a Grange Hall 36 Fraternal Organizations on Mount Desert Island William J. Skocpol The pictures at the left are examples of halls that once served as centers of associational life for various communities on Mount Desert Island. Although built by private organizations, they could also be used for town meetings or other civic events. This article surveys four differ­ ent types of organizations on Mount Desert Island that built such halls - the Masons, Odd Fellows, Grange, and Knights of Pythias - plus one, the Independent Order of Good Templars, that didn't. The Ancient Free & Accepted Masons The Masons were the first, and highest status, of the "secret societies" present in Colonial America. The medieval guilds of masons, such as those who built the great cathedrals, were organized around a functional craft but also sometimes had "Accepted" members who shared their ide­ als and perhaps contributed to their wealth. As the functional work de­ clined, a few clusters of ''Accepted" masons carried on the organization. From these sprang hundreds of lodges throughout the British Isles, well documented by the early 1700s. The first lodge in Massachusetts (of which Maine was then a part) was founded at Boston in 1733, and the ensuing Provincial Grand Lodge chartered the Falmouth Lodge in 1769. Another Grand Lodge in Boston with roots in Scotland chartered the second Maine Lodge, War­ ren Lodge in Machias, in 1778. Its charter was signed by Paul Revere.

  • Symbolic Expressions of the Masons and Odd Fellows from the American Folk Art Museum
    Mysteryand Benevolence Symbolic Expressions of the Masons and Odd Fellows from the American Folk Art Museum TRAVELING EXHIBITION SERVICE Mysteryand Benevolence Masonic and Odd Fellows Folk Art The enigmatic objects on view assume a profound and affecting sincerity, even as their highly charged imagery fascinates, puzzles, and compels. ystical, evocative, and sometimes simply strange, the art of M fraternal practice is rich in symbols that are oddly familiar yet strikingly uncommon. Through arcane and alluring artifacts, Mystery and Benevolence brings to light the histories of the Freemasons and the Independent Order of the Odd Fellows, two fraternal secret societies with deep roots in American history. The almost two hundred carvings, textiles, sculptures, and adornments that constitute this exhibition were used from the late eighteenth through mid-twentieth centuries, and retain their clandestine allure to this day. Whether regarded as “secret societies” or “societies with secrets,” American fraternal groups arouse endless curiosity about their ceremonies, ritualized performances, and recitations. These practices, many borrowed and adapted from ancient Egypt and biblical Christianity, are kept hidden from outsiders, and lend an aura of exclusivity and brotherhood to its members. The “mystery and privilege” of these brotherhoods are also transmitted through secret systems of hand grips, gestures, and passwords that are thought to originate in the Middle Ages. Cryptic symbols, hieroglyphs, rituals, and vows of secrecy cloak fraternal orders

The oldest African American fraternal organization is the Prince Hall Masonic Order which was founded in 1787 as African Lodge No. 459 .
