                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 4, 1999

  Mr. SCHAFFER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay humble tribute to the 
students, teachers and parents of Preston Junior High School in 
Colorado for their efforts to help the needy during the holidays. I 
commend the facility of the school as well as all the students, parents 
and individuals who contributed to their special canned food drive. 
Their selfless dedication has provided warmth, comfort and happiness to 
families in Colorado. That the school produced so much for Santa Cops 
for the benefit of the needy is testament to the true meaning of the 
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 school's example during the holidays be a beacon to us 
all throughout the year.
