ITEMS OF INTEREST

with contributions from Ellin Dize

ON SATURDAY, September 27, 2008, a resolution recognizing The Christian Science Monitor's Centennial was passed unanimously by the US House of Representatives. It was sponsored by Congressman Lamar Smith (R) of Texas who once served on the Monitor staff. It was co-sponsored by 40 other members of Congress.

As the Monitor celebrates its Centennial year, this resolution speaks to the fact that the Monitor has been and continues to be an important resource on Capitol Hill and for people of all walks of life around the world.

Mr. Smith of Texas: . . . This resolution recognizes the 100th anniversary of The Christian Science Monitor newspaper on November 25, 2008. Thanks go to Congressman Mike Capuano (MA), who agreed to be an original co-sponsor of this bipartisan resolution and whose district includes the Boston headquarters of The Christian Science Monitor. . . .
