                         Tuesday, May 18, 1999

  Mr. SCHAFFER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Flat Stanley who 
showed up today in my office here in Washington, D.C. Mr. Stanley was 
introduced to me by Jessika Fretwell, a Student from Laurel Elementary 
School in Ft. Collins, Colorado.
  Together, Mr. Stanley and Miss Fretwell are trying to see how far and 
wide Flat Stanley can travel in a short period of time. This 
experiment, I understand, is being conducted as part of a classroom 
activity in Miss Cooper's Class.
  I hereby certify, Mr. Speaker, that Flat Stanley arrived in 
Washington, D.C. today. Should any of our colleagues wish to meet him, 
they may inquire about his status at my office. There, Mr. Stanley will 
be resting for most of Wednesday.
