                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 7, 1998

  Mr. BAESLER. Mr. Speaker, I am once again pleased and honored to 
welcome to our Capital City the eighth grade class from East Jessamine 
Middle School. These bright and ambitious students have traveled to 
Washington from the heart of the Bluegrass State, Nicholasville, 
Kentucky. Nathaniel Hawthorne, the great American poet once wrote, ``It 
is natural enough to suppose that the center and heart of America is 
the Capitol, and certainly, in its outward aspect, the world has not 
many a statelier or more beautiful edifices.'' I join with these 
students in their excitement to explore and learn more about the 
history and origin of the Capitol. I am proud of these eighth graders 
and thankful to their teachers for bringing history alive for them. I 
wish them the best for a most memorable trip in Washington, D.C.
