Our Lodge Officers
By Anonymous
Worshipful Master
Leaps tall buildings in a single bound, is more powerful than a locomotive is
faster than a speeding bullet, and walks on water.
Senior Warden
Leaps short buildings in a single bound, is more powerful than a switch engine,
is just as fast as a speeding bullet, walks on water if the sea is calm, and
talks with God.
Junior Warden
Leaps short buildings with a running start and favorable winds, is almost as
powerful as a switch engine, is faster than a speeding BB, walks on water in an
indoor pool, and talks with God with special approval.
Deacons
Barely clear a Quonset hut, looses tug of war with a locomotive, can fire a
speeding bullet, passes water, and is occasionally addressed by God.
Treasurer
Makes high marks on the wall when trying to leap over buildings, is run over by
a locomotive, can sometimes handle a gun without inflicting self-injury, dog
paddles, and talks to animals.
Stewards
Fall over doorsteps when trying to enter buildings, says, “Look at the
choo-choo,” squirts self with water pistol, plays in mud puddles, and mutters to
self.
Tiler
Runs into buildings, recognizes locomotives two out of three times, is not
issued ammunition, can stay afloat with a life jacket, talks to walls.
Secretary
Lifts buildings and walks under them, kicks locomotives off the tracks, catches
speeding bullets with his teeth and eats them, freezes water with a single
glance, and answers only to God.
