  Mr. GARCIA of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the 
150th Anniversary of the Village of Hinsdale, Illinois. A place that 
has been a pillar of Cook and DuPage counties for nearly two centuries.
  Hinsdaleans have long played an important role in shaping the 
community. It was thanks to Hinsdaleans that the village undertook 
numerous civic improvements that were ahead of their time. In the 1890s 
civic projects such as a water pumping station, a sewage system, 
electric street lights, street paving, and sidewalks contributed to the 
village's appeal.
  I am honored to represent the Village of Hinsdale and thousands of 
Hinsdaleans in Congress.
  Happy Sesquicentennial, Hinsdale. Here's to the next 150 years.
