Organizational Structure
There were at one time believed to be at least three grades to the Order, although the progression was unknown. These were: Shieks, Fiars and Picklemen. This was, however, a mischevious prank pulled by Stimes Addisson on Ahmed Capra, who foolishly published the information in the Dallas Dumpling. For his pains Capra later received a mysterious letter, authenticated by various means, which said:
"We had, in fact, two grades: Dungarians and Chinamen, so named because of the pants, i.e. jeans or chinos, each member was allowed to wear during the initiation rituals. Have you read The Outiders, Mr. Capra? I can tell you only this: the strange dynamic dualism which forms the plot propellor of Miss Hinton's novel, "Greasers" vs. "Socials," is the very same which formed the serio-comic mystery drama of our Order.

The letter was postmarked in Berlin and the return adress turned out to be a cemetery in Jerusalem.
