                        Thursday, March 4, 1999

  Mr. SCHAFFER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay humble tribute to the 
students, teachers and parents of Lincoln Junior High School in 
Colorado for their efforts to help the needy during the holidays. I 
commend the faculty of the school as well as all the students, parents 
and individuals who contributed to their special benefit. Their 
selfless dedication has provided warmth, comfort and happiness to the 
needy families in Colorado. That the school produced so much from their 
giving tree, toy drive and Basket-of-Books program is testament to the 
true meaning and spirit of Christmas and Hanukkah. Let us remember, as 
these good people have, that the holiday season is one of giving, one 
of joy, and one of hope. Let the children's example during the holidays 
be a beacon to us all throughout the year.
