Maspns and Stars and Rainbow girls who attended all of the meet- ings;” said Mrs. Sweeney. She men- tion¢d that it was also shown'by the increased number of skits which wereé presented by the various as- somblies competing for awards and by the number of past grand offi- cers. who attended this meeting. During the past year there was an lincrease of 1,529 members, making a total of 10,179 girls who ; are active in Rainbow in this jur- isdigtion. This figure would have beer] larger were it not for the fact that each year about 800 girls reach their majority either through attaining their 20th birthday or by martiage. At that time they are taken off the active list and plac- ed bn the life-time honor list. Besides disposing of routine bus- iness and the reading of various reports, the Grand Officers initiated *a number of new candidates, con- ferved the majorily degree on eight or mine girls, and conferred the “Grand Cross of Color” honor on a very large class.
