Grand Chapter
  “A ‘Traveling Star’ was started by the Instructor in each of the twenty-five districts.  Chapters were requested to prepare programs to be offerend as entertainment as they presented the Star to another Chapter.  Silver offerings taken at these meetings created a fund used in bringing added comfort and furnishings to our Eastern Star Home at Boone which could not be provided otherwise.”
