                      Thursday, February 25, 2016

  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Mr. Speaker, I ask for the House's attention 
today to recognize the birthday of Sallie Pauline Naugher Putnam of 
Piedmont, Alabama. She will turn 100 on March 28th.
  Pauline was born to Jennie Elizabeth Warren Naugher and William 
Morris Naugher. She had two brothers, both World War II Veterans, and 
one sister who married a World War II Veteran. She married Volyer C. 
Putnam (deceased), also a World War II Veteran, on March 2, 1940. She 
is the proud aunt of her nephew Michael Naugher and niece Susan Ponder.
  Pauline attended school in Oxford, Alabama until 7th grade and then 
finished 8th-12th grades at Piedmont High School. She was Salutatorian 
in 1934. She attended a year and a half at Jacksonville State 
University.
  After her time at JSU, she worked at Standard Coosa Thatcher, a 
cotton mill in Piedmont. There she worked as a spinner, in the lab and 
in the payroll department before retiring.
  She attends First Baptist Church of Piedmont where she has been a 
member since 1955.
  In the fall, she cheers on the Piedmont Bulldogs and Alabama Crimson 
Tide. She still drives and goes to the beauty shop each week.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in recognizing the life and achievements 
of Sallie Pauline Naugher Putnam and wishing her a happy 100th 
birthday.
