The DAR Insignia

The 0fficial Emblem was adopted May 26, 1891

"Our emblem is a golden wheel
Banded with deepest blue,
Each shining spoke tipped with a star,
The distaff shining through:
The only jewel in all the world
That money cannot buy,
Without proof of ancestry
As no one can deny."

THE HUB A daughter's loyal heart
EACH SPOKE A thought of those who part
THE RIM A noble life's bright round
EACH STAR A deed in Heaven profound
THE DISTAFF A guide that points above
EACH FLAXEN THREAD A cord of love
