  Mr. WEBSTER of Florida. Mr. Speaker, it is my pleasure to recognize 
the South Lake Press on its 100th anniversary of publication.
  The South Lake Press was founded in 1913 by Mr. W.E. Rorabaugh as the 
Clermont Clarion. In 1921, Mr. John Lochner purchased the Clarion and 
renamed it the South Lake Press to reflect its news coverage of south 
Lake County. Through changes in ownership and a quickly evolving 
community, the publication has remained an integral piece of life in 
Lake County.
  George and Ann Dupee bought the paper in 1968, and, after George 
passed away in 1986, Ann continued to lead its publication until 1992. 
A passionate journalist and photographer, Ann actively reported on 
local government, businesses, and the community at large. Ann's 
dedication to the news is apparent in her extensive work throughout 
south Lake County. To this day, she continues to write a weekly column 
showcasing the South Lake Press' rich history in Central Florida.
  It is with sincere appreciation that I thank my friend Ann Dupee for 
her commitment to our community and the South Lake Press for a century 
of service to south Lake County.
