History
The D.D. 40 Club was founded in Edmonton in 1928. The purpose of the club was to promote social activity among its membership, which was limited originally to unmarried women who were members of the Edmonton Public or High School teaching staff. The abbreviation D.D. stood for "Docendo Discimus", Latin for "By Teaching, We Learn", and the forty referred to the fact that the active membership was initially limited to forty people.
