UOSP was a side order of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows that existed only for a very short time, about 1924-1925, which it morphed into the AMOS (Ancient Mystical Order of Samaritans), which is still in existence. Originally, this would have hung from a ribbon, probably yellow and red, attached to a pin-back attachment.</p><p><br /></p><p>Symbols of the UOSP included the volcano, the cross of St. Andrew (or in any case, an X-shaped mark: I don&#039;t know the significance/association of the symbol), and the motto &quot;We Never Sleep.&quot; </p><p><br /></p><p>Asmie would be the name of the Sanctorum (the local operating body, equivalent to a Lodge), and apparently Asmie was the 186th registered Sanctorum of the order. </p><p><br /></p><p>A little more info on the UOSP can be found <a href="http://fezmuseum.com/fraternal/odd-fellows/uosp/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://fezmuseum.com/fraternal/odd-fellows/uosp/" rel="nofollow">here</a>.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
