I think the Masons, Eastern Stars, Rainbow Girls, Jobs daughter, etc. are just a bunch of folks who want to feel like they are part of an exclusive club. Basically, a way for losers to feel important.

What is their purpose? I know they like the circus and they like to drive little cars but those are the big wigs and why do they wear those funny hats? Do they like pretending to be Turks or something? What do the little people do besides carry around those secrets and feel like they are somehow connected to something mysterious and extremely important.

When the Rainbow girls or Jobs Daughters in my school were ready for initiation, they liked to let everyone know but they wouldn't tell us what it was all about. I don't think they actually knew. I figured it was something like a debutante ball for middle class schmucks.
