Our symbol's meaning as written by Jeanne Davies, Colorado, 1970:
A perfect circle forms the foundation: Like the foundation; God's creation: A cycle of generation unending, eternal;A Father's care and guidance and a love maternal.
Engraved on the round are heads of wheat. Symbol of home and farm and harmony complete.
The center, a Roman's lamp with fire and light. Symbols of a home's hearth, and life that's bright.
There's a notch on the circle's top but that's not odd. For it shows room for improvement as we reach for God.
All of this we wear proudly on our Homemaker's pin. It tells on the outside what we feel within.
