The lighthouse tower and time ball on
this building, which were erected as
memorial to those who persisted with
the sinking of the Titanic, have already
been dedicated. In this Institute are
800 seamen's bedrooms, 355 of which
have been furnished by individuals or
associations in memory of some loved
one gone, and there still remain 35 rooms
to be so furnished. One hundred dollars
pays the cost of building and furnishing
one of these bedrooms, which will help
to give 100 sailors in year a clean bed
in the right surroundings and keep them
from the temptations and degradations
of Sailor.own. Over the door of each
room so furnished is placed a bronze
plate which bears either the name of the
donor or the name of the person whose
memory is honored in this way. The
