                            HON. HERB KLEIN

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                      Tuesday, September 13, 1994

  Mr. KLEIN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the Adult School of 
Montclair, NJ on the distinguished occasion of its 60th anniversary 
celebration.
  The Adult School of Montclair was officially established during the 
Depression when the slogan ``Time is constant in moneyless days'' was 
used.
  Initially, the Adult School of Montclair responded to the changing 
interests, needs, and diversities of the times by providing an 
exceptionally well-rounded variety of options. During its first term in 
the spring of 1934, approximately 500 students were able to select from 
17 courses. Presently, the Adult School offers its 3,000 students more 
than 120 different courses each term. In addition, the Adult School 
provides an assortment of notable speakers, sponsored unique music and 
art lectures, and has presented many programs that have been both 
informative and inspirational.
  Through the years, the school has assisted many individuals in 
Montclair and has made many contributions to the community. It has been 
a constant source of renewed opportunity to those who are looking to 
work hard and better themselves.
  For these reasons, I take great pleasure in asking my colleagues to 
join me in commemorating the Adult School of Montclair for its 60 years 
of service and dedication.
