XXI Club Denison, Texas  The XXI Club's emblem,
seen on the 1897-98 club booklet, represented "the torch of
knowledge encircled by the laurel wreath of achievement, with a little
bow
thrown in at the bottom. The torch and the wreath are both commonly
used
symbols with origins in Greek and Roman mythology. The torch is on the
back of
the United States dime and in one hand of the Statue of Liberty, which
was
dedicated just four years prior to the organization of the XXI Club."  XXI Club History Susan Hawkins © 2024 If you find any of Grayson CountyTXGenWeb links inoperable, please send me a message. |
