  A Fraternal History of Marin County California - Woodmen of the World
There is a small (now neglected) section of Mira Monte Camp's member's graves in the Tamalpais Cemetery (San Rafael) which are marked with cement tree stumps decorated with various symbols of the Woodmen of the World; sadly, many of these are toppled and/or overgrown.
Woodmen of the World provided funeral benefits to members: Tomb stones in the shape of a tree stump, split with a wedge, decorated with beetle, axe and sledge, and bearing the motto "Dum Tacet Clamat" ("though silent he speaks") can be found in most cemeteries.
The emblems associated with the Woodmen are: The axe, wedge and beetle (Modern Woodmen's working tools signifying industry, power and progress); the log and maple leaf (Modern Woodmen's shield of protection and brotherhood); a palm, five stars and a shield (representing peace, light and safety); and the Modern Woodmen goat.

 Cruising World - Bountiful Belize
Life’s been good to the buddy woodsmen, and they’ve abandoned plans to live like outlaws and chop down the rain forest.
Their new, more eco-friendly scheme, hatched on the charter, is to start a venture called Belize Knees, which would let them wander the forest and search for unions of limb and trunk that yield perfect angles—natural knees—for boatbuilding.
In Belize, the size of New Hampshire, the only time anyone cares whether you’re in or you’re out is when you’re talking about the barrier reef, a jagged mass of coral about 15 miles off the coast that runs south from the north tip of Ambergris Cay to the Gulf of Honduras.
