Charity Bazar - 1916

Charity Bazar for the War Sufferers in Germany, Austria and Hungary - May 15 to 20, 1916 - at the Auditorium along Main Street. Before America entered The Great War - we officially were supposed to be neutral - so this event was created as a community effort to help their friends and family back home. Even some very high ranking German officials came to Johnstown to lend their support and give speeches. The U.S. was never really neutral - just playing on both sides of the fence - until we fell off it in 1917.

My great-grandmother Rose (Baum) Lenz was one of the organizers.
