UK Masons tend to be more quiet than US Masons.
Whereas in America they are fine with putting up flags, decals, sticks, bow ties, what have you, in UK there is still something of a stigma associated with being a Mason.


Is this the book you are talking about?
The History of Freemasonry
By Robert Freke Gould

Never mind, it is.

Anyway, there are a few Masons here that are in the UK, may know more about what the apron signifies.

First of all, welcome to ATS. I think you'll find that there is a great deal of information here and the information about Freemasonry is abundant.

You need to be able to be very discerning, however. Because information can be true or false and you'll find plenty of both. And even the true information can be subject to interpretation, so bear that in mind.

I highly recommend you open a dialogue with your dad and tell him you would really like to have an earnest discussion with him. My guess is he'll be able to answer most of what you'd like to know as long as he knows it's a serious inquiry.

And to everyone else, please be mindful you're likely talking to a 16 year old about his father. Anyone incapable of respecting the situation is strongly advised to visit a different thread.

It appears that your dads lodge wears ceremonial aprons. Our lodge uses plain white aprons except for the officers. The officers have colorful aprons that are stored at the lodge. We also dress very casual. Come as you are so to speak. I am under the impression that Prince Hall masonry in NC use gloves and dress in suits even for a regular meeting, but I am not sure. Does your dad ware a suit to the meetings?

I asked him if he knew of the NWO and he said "of course I do" but I know that he doesn't look on these forums or take any special intrest in it.


In most lodges it's a joke.. we often joke about conspiracy theories. Especially when dues come around, we wonder when we get our allowances of virgins, beer and gold.

*sigh* .. never got that allowance.


Thanks for listening and any help would be appreciated


You did not ask a question my friend.. And he would be a 3rd degree Master Mason, the highest degree in all lodges throughout the world.

I was raised to wear a suit to lodge (ha, raised joke, funny me) lol .. "Respect for the institution" .. even in a casual lodge I'll be the one nerd in a suit.
