    RECOGNIZING A CENTURY OF EXCELLENCE FOR CHI OMEGA CHAPTER OF AKA

  (Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize a 
century of excellence by the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated, 
Chi Omega Chapter located in Rocky Mount, North Carolina.
  The Chi Omega Chapter was chartered under the leadership of Anna 
Easter Brown, one of the original 16 founders of Alpha Kappa Alpha 
Sorority, Incorporated.
  The chapter is home to Ruth Anderson Smith, who has served as a 
member for over 75 years and is 103 years old. She is a Chi Omega 
Diamond. There are three Chi Omega Pearls who served for over 65 years 
in membership, with 12 over 50 years who are Golden Members.
  That is 100 years of membership, educational support, health 
advocacy, and steadfast commitment to our HBCUs and transforming lives 
and strengthening eastern North Carolina.
  Mr. Speaker, I congratulate everyone who came to celebrate this 
amazing celebration of 100 years.
