                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, April 12, 1999

  Mr. EVERETT. Mr. Speaker, this month marks the 50th anniversary of 
``Service Above Self'' for the Rotary Club of Luverne, AL, in my 
congressional district.
  Over the years since the establishment of the Luverne chapter of 
Rotary International, its Crenshaw County members have served their 
community and fellow man in the best tradition of Rotary: To Encourage 
and Foster the Ideal of Service as a Basis of Worth Enterprise.
  Luverne Rotarians continue to embody this noble tradition of 
community service through many local outreach projects including annual 
contributions to Operation Santa Claus to benefit local needy children; 
and, their annual fishing rodeo for young area honor students.
  In their golden anniversary year, I wish to congratulate club 
president William Bell, vice president Chris Johnson, treasurer Ann 
Tate, secretary Pat Folmar, and all the members of the Luverne Rotary 
Club. Their many positive contributions to our community and its youth 
are making a difference in south central Alabama.
