            SALUTING 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF BELLWOOD, ILLINOIS

  (Mr. DAVIS of Illinois asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DAVIS of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to salute the 
village of Bellwood, Illinois, which is celebrating its 100th year 
anniversary. It is a quiet,

 quaint little village made up of some of the finest people in this 
country.
  One of the ways that they decided to celebrate their 100th year 
anniversary was to give away 100 appreciation slips to individuals who 
had performed acts of kindness. And so, anybody who wanted to submit a 
person who performed an act of kindness in the village of Bellwood, all 
they had to do was submit to the mayor.
  So I commend Mayor Donald T. Lemm, all of the members of the board of 
trustees, and wish them another great 100 years.
