                        Thursday, March 4, 1999

  Mr. SCHAFFER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay humble tribute to the 
students, teachers, and parents of Bauder Elementary School in Colorado 
for their efforts to help the needy during the holidays. I commend the 
faculty of Bauder, as well as all the students, parents and individuals 
who contributed to this special canned food drive. Their selfless 
dedication has provided warmth, comfort, and happiness to families in 
Colorado. That the school produced 4,600 cans of food, books, gift 
certificates, and toys for the benefit of local families 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 this example during the 
holidays, be a beacon to us all throughout the year.
