  Mr. SMITH of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 
100th birthday of Haline Julian.
   On Wednesday, February 28, 2018, Haline Julian of Kennett, Missouri 
celebrated her 100th birthday with friends, family, and the staff at 
Kennett OAKS Senior Nutrition Center.
   Haline met her husband for the first time in 1942. H.M. Julian was 
twenty-one and had just entered the military when he was set-up with 
Haline Overall. They drove to Kennett for their first date, and it was 
on this date that a romance started that would last well over seventy 
years.
   Haline attended beauty school and after she graduated, opened her 
own beauty salon. H.M. went to college on the GI bill and received a 
degree in Vocational Agriculture. Their family began to grow in 1952 
with the birth of their first son Chip, and in 1957 with their daughter 
Judy. Both children were born at Presnell Hospital in Kennett. The 
Julian family moved all across Missouri over the years, but Haline has 
always considered Kennett to be their true home.
   It is with great appreciation and respect I recognize the 100th 
birthday of Haline Julian today before the United States House of 
Representatives.
