idvanoed to hatchery manager
in which capacity he has served
for many years.
Mr. Logan, on behalf of the
Logans, who operate the hatch- .
ery as a partnership, presented
Mr. Keiter with a check for his
faithful service.
| Mr Logan remarked that the
output of baby chicks for the
year 1931, in which Mr. Keiter
was-first employed was 150,000,
That was thought at that time
to be an important production
in the hatchery world. Yet to
day, the Logan Hatchery hatches
that many chicks each two week
periods.
| Mrs. Logan presented a gift
to Mrs. Keiter, who soon.leaves
with their two childien, Alvin,
Jr. and Malcolm, on a trip to.
England to visit her mother.
The Keiters met and married
while in England- during his stay
|in England while in military
service.
I Pictures were shown to the
group showing hatchery activi
ties going back many years in
which Mr. Keiter had a part.
Mian Bowen, London, Eng
land, who is presently visiting
with the Logans gave interesting
remarks from an Englishman's
point of view, since Mrs. Keiter
lis a native of England: Pictures
I were also shown of the Logan’s
visit to Europe in 1951 which
included pictures at the Bowen
home in Streatham, London. "
