Who are the “pillar officers” of a Lodge?

This is a terminology that is not formally a part of our system of Masonry in the Grand Lodge of New York, but is used in other jurisdictions and may be heard from time to time. They are the same as our “principal officers” of the Lodge, namely the Worshipful Master, Senior Warden, and Junior Warden. They can be called “pillar officers” due to the section of the First Degree Historical Lecture on the Supports of a Lodge, which explains that the three great pillars that support a Lodge are represented by the three principal officers: the pillar Wisdom by the Master, the pillar Strength by the Senior Warden, and the pillar Beauty by the Junior Warden.
