Object History
This pin's bar commemorates the work of the wearer during World War I. The Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire (I.O.D.E.) is a woman's charitable organization based in Canada. The first chapter "Federation of the Daughters of the Empire" was formed in Fredericton, New Brunswick in 1900 and the Federation was incorporated as "Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire and and Children of the Junior Branch" in 1901. The IODE was incorporated as Canadian women's organization by a special act of parliament of Canada in 1917. The IODE actively promoted military training in schools.

Collected by editorial for use in a May 2001 issue of the Burnaby NewsLeader
Caption from metadata: "Dan Pederson takes a closer look at some of the 3,000 pins in his collection, at the Pacific Pin Club's first public show and sale at the Capitol Hill Community Centre. Pederson says he started collecting pins in 1984, at the Los Angeles Olympics and he's travelled to various competitions like the Commonwealth, Pan Am and Canada Games to amass his collection. "I like to trade with the actual athletes," he says. "Every pin has a story." The Pin Club has about 44 members from Vancouver Island to Alberta. It started when collectors, who started accumulating pins during Expo 86, started getting together to compare and trade their finds. The club meets monthly."
