  Mr. SKELTON. Mr. Speaker, it has come to my attention that the City 
of Lebanon, Missouri, celebrated ``Dr. J.M. Saeger Appreciation Day'' 
on June 16, 1999.
  Dr. Saeger was honored by the City of Lebanon for his 30 years of 
service on the Board of Commissioners of the Housing Authority, where 
he also served as board president for many years. Dr. Saeger has a long 
history of public service. A veteran of World War II, he faithfully 
served his country in the military. He also served as the official 
Lebanon weather observer for the National Weather Service for 26 years. 
Dr. Saeger, who holds a doctorate in chiropractic medicine, continues 
to practice.
  Mr. Speaker, I know the Members of the House will join me in paying 
tribute to Dr. Saeger for his dedication to his community and selfless 
public service.
