many years of exnprionpo in Ma
sonic and Eastern Star .work, he
prepared a ritual along the lines
that would incorporate the teach
ings of those fralprniHne nnH
called it the Order of the Rainbow

In Oregon, the Martha Washing

For Girls
Assembly
77th assembly was formed in the
state. The assemblies are spon
sored by Eastern Star Chapters
Masonic Lodges or groups of in
dividua's from both of these
bodies. Any girl between the ages
of 12 and 18 who is the daughter
of a Master Mason or an Eastern
Star, or .the friend of a Rainbow
Girl may petition for membership
in the order. It is- based upon1
service to others and the assem
blies give much of their time' and
money to doing for others. Each
year they have a service project,
state wide, known as the Grand
Wrthy Advisor's project and each
assembly donates money to this.-'
' ;Carolyn Parson chose a three
way project this year: provide a
television' set at the Masanic and
Eastern Star Home of Oregon at
Forest Grove; contribute to the
"cast fund" at the Shriners' hos
pital; and give a Hi-Fi set to the
school for the Deaf, and if their
third is enough, a merry-go-round
for the pre school group at the
deaf school.
In addition to this annual project,
which varies each year, each
assembly has projects of its own
along the same line, which of it
in the way of entertainment for
the aged and ill. . They adopt
families less fortunate than them
selves at Thanksgiving and Christ
mas. -
They make doll clothes, tray
favors, stuffed toys and many
other things for the hospitals and
children's homes. Along with all
of this,' the girls have a lot of
activities including parties, over

the like..
