The Kress Building 2
S. H. Kress & Co. was the trading name of a chain of "five and dime" retail department stores in the United States, which operated from 1896 to 1981.
Samuel H. Kress opened his first "stationery and notions" store in Nanticoke, Pennsylvania in 1887. The chain of S. H. Kress & Co. 5-10-25 Cent Stores was established in 1896.
Throughout the first half of the twentieth century Kress stores were a familiar sight on "Main Street" in hundreds of cities and towns.
In 1964 Genesco, Inc. acquired ownership of Kress. The company abandoned its center-city stores and moved to the shopping malls. Genesco began liquidating Kress and closing down the Kress stores in 1980.

Built in 1898 as the original home of a prestigious furniture company, the Emporium Building housed a wholesale goods distributor and later became a textile manufacturing facility that fulfilled military contracts. The two adjacent buildings and the vacant lot were the location of the “Parthenon of Country Music,” which served as the home of the WNOX Mid-day Merry-Go-Round.

The Torchbearer
The classes of 1928 through 1932 gave $1,000 to be used as a prize for a sculpture that would capture "the spirit of University youth and its ideal of service." The contest winner who was announced on May 12, 1931, was a Yale School of Fine Arts student, Theodore Andre Beck. Complaints from faculty and students caused the design to be modified. The middle--aged man was made younger-looking; the Grecian hairstyle and tunic were changed to something of more indeterminate character so as to avoid relating the figure to any particular culture; instead of a lamp in his right hand he held aloft a torch representing the maxim "One that beareth a torch standeth in shadow to give light to others"; on his left side, partially hidden, hung a "sword of protection"; and in his left hand was held the Goddess of Winged Victory, the symbol of success. Later, the design was modified to include a globe upon which Winged Victory rested--to suggest that victory over the challenges of the world, in times of both war and peace, lay in the individual's own hands. The depression and World War II prevented the statue from being cast and placed on campus, although the design was adopted as the official symbol of the University, copyrighted in 1932, and began appearing on some official stationery, class rings, commencement programs, The Volunteer and The Torch. In 1937, the senior class gave a silver-plated model of the torchbearer to the outstanding member of the junior class; the first recipient was John Fisher. For the occasion sculptor Beck prepared a three-foot high plaster version complete with built-in flame which, on its first use, malfunctioned and completely destroyed the outstretched hand. With the physical expansion of the University in the 1960s, there were ample sites for a large statue. The class of 1967 spearheaded a project and raised the necessary funds to cast a nine-foot-tall Volunteer. The trustees allocated money from grounds maintenance for a broad stairway, walk, and landscaping to complement the statue. There was again controversy about the design of the statue which delayed its expected 1967 Homecoming dedication. Again modified, the statue was finally cast, placed in Circle Park, and unveiled on April 19, 1968. In attendance were two members of the classes of 1930 and 1931, the president of the class of 1967, and the 1967 Volunteer of the Year. In 1987, the Torchbearer was again chosen for its symbolism when the UT Knoxville Chancellor's Office had a twelve-inch-high version cast and awarded to a distinguished alumnus at the annual meeting of the Chancellor's Associates. The 1988 honoree was the same John Fisher who had fifty years earlier received the first Torchbearer. (cited from the UT page http://web.utk.edu/~mklein/uttrads.html)

White Lily 2
The White Lily brand was founded in 1883 in Knoxville, TN as the Knoxville Milling Company (KMC) OR as the Knoxville City Mills.
In 1887, James Allen Smith purchased KMC and renamed the mill the J. Allen Smith Co.
During World War II, war rations were that only straight grade could
be sold, so the White Lily brand was taken off the market, because only
the best flour could be White Lily.
In 1994 J. Allen Smith & Company is combined with Great Western.
In 1972 White Lily was acquired by Dixie Portland Flour Mills.
In 1991, White Lily was acquired by Windmill Corporation.
In 1995, C.H. Guenther & Son, Inc. acquired White Lily.
In 2003, White Lily entered the frozen dough category with four
varieties of Frozen Biscuits, and introduced White Lily Quick Grits.
In 2005, Two additional frozen biscuit varieties were introduced.
In October 2006, The J.M. Smucker Company (NYSE: SJM) announced it
had acquired the White Lily brand from C.H. Guenther & Son, Inc.,
parent company of The White Lily Foods Company. This acquisition did not
include the Knoxville, TN mill, which was closed in 2008.
In 2008, White Lily flour production was moved to Ohio, the number one producer of soft winter red wheat. It is also where The J.M. Smucker Company
is headquartered. The Ohio milling facility is a fifth generation
family milling operation which has served as a secondary miller of White
Lily flour for generations.
