“WHO controls the British crown? Who keeps the metric system down? We do, we do!”So sing the Stonecutters, an underground brotherhood devised by Simpsons creator Matt Groening.
It’s not hard to tell who they’re based on.
Freemasons wince at their Secret Society tag.
At Great Lakes Daylight Lodge’s open day, the preferred term is ‘society with secrets’. Unfortunately, no-one’s shown up.
“We’re trying to create interest because it’s been flagging lately, but we weren’t very successful,” secretary Ron Woodward says.
“No-one new is joining up around here, and that’s one of our problems. At the Daylight Lodge it’s hard for young people to come along.”
The organisation is opening itself up. Freemasons are sick of the public’s whispers and sniggers; the open day’s press release pre-emptively denies claims of secrecy.
