  Mr. SHIMKUS. Madam Speaker, I rise to recognize the community of St. 
Rose, Illinois on the occasion of its 150th anniversary.
  The residents of St. Rose have displayed a great deal of dedication, 
energy, and time in preparation for her sesquicentennial celebration 
and have planned a diverse schedule of events guaranteed to entertain 
all who attend. The village and township of St. Rose have been an 
integral part of the state of Illinois for 150 years, and the citizens 
of St. Rose have played an important role in Illinois history, life, 
and government.
  In recognition of this background and St. Rose's celebration, the 
State of Illinois decreed that the weekend of October 7th be designated 
as St. Rose Sesquicentennial Weekend.
  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in acknowledging the 
hard work and dedication of the people of St. Rose, and I wish the 
community all the best in the future.

                          ____________________
