The history of Shriners International is the story of individuals who came together in the spirit of fun and fellowship, who would lay the foundation for a worldwide fraternity and establish a globally recognized pediatric specialty health care system.

To any aspiring Mason or any brother currently within the fraternity, for that matter, Freemasonry’s additional degrees are something of an allure. They are intriguing because they offer an insight into Freemasonry that is not shared by all brothers. While Craft Masonry is a Brotherhood, Royal Arch Masonry is better described as a Companionship. "It refers, most probably, to the companionship in exile and captivity of the ancient Jews, from the destruction of the Temple by Nebuchadnezzar to its restoration by Zerubbabel, under the auspices of Cyrus. In using this title in a higher degree, the Masons who adopted it seem to have intimated that there was a shade of difference between its meaning and that of brother."
