Erie (Pa.) Lodge Raising Fund to Save Perry's Flagship

Erie (Pa.) Lodge, No. 67, cooperating with various organizations of the city, has launched a campaign to keep the Niagara, Perry's old flagship, in Erie and to provide funds for its care and maintenance. The story of the Battle of Lake Erie and of Perry and his ship is known to every school child in the land. The old ship is on the verge of ruin and a considerable sum of money is necessary to save it. Working with Erie Lodge in this highly patriotic work are the Rotary and Lions Clubs, the Chamber of Commerce, the Woman's Club and the Daughters of the Revolution. A series of special entertainments are being conducted by Erie Lodge for the benefit of the Niagara Fund.
