The two animals in the picture
are owned by Hiram Stevens,
Jennysville, Wyoming County.
The cow is a grade Holstein, born
October 17, 1939. This animal is
the oldest daughter of Piebe Ger-
ben Creamelle, one of the sires
used at NEPA Artificial Breeding
Coop., Tunkhannock, Pa.
The heifer calf was the first test
tube calf, or the first artificially
bred offspring. It was born October
31, 1945, and was sired by King
Arrow Aaggie. This sire is also used
at NEPA Artificial Breeding * Co-
operative.
Lady, barn mame of the above
cow, has completed four lactations
.
THE POST, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 1946
First Test Tube Calf
with a total of 48, 463 lbs. milk and
1,789.9 lbs. butterfat. In her fifth
lactation in the first three months
of the D.H.I.LA. report, she has pro-
duced 214.9 lbs. butterfat and
5,296 lbs. milk. The average cow
in the state produces about 200
pounds of butterfat in a year’s time.
By proper breeding, feeding, and
care, this animal has equaled that
production in three months’ time.
Hiram Stevens and his son, Rich-
ard, operate the farm. They have
a herd of grade Holsteins. Mr.
Stevens has made a practice of
using purebred Holstein herd sires
for the past ten generations and
has developed a high . producing
herd of cattle.

Shavertown Teen-Age
Center Is One Year Old
(Continued from Page One)
Shavertown to help organize and
set up a Teen-Age Center. At this
meeting a committee was appoint-
ed to wait on the school board to
petition them for the use of ithe
abandoned grade school annex of
the Shavertown school. At a meet-
ing a week later an organization
was effected, officers elected and a
report filed on the prospects of ob-
taining a suitable location for the
Center. Tt was mot until a month
later, however, there was any as-
surance of obtaining the desirable
site, in the grade school annex and
that work could be started on ren-
ovating this abandoned building.
Funds were solicited by the teen-
age youth of the community from
their parents and friends and a
total of approximately $300 was
raised by this means. Most o fthis
money was spent in making the
building habitable, installing water
lines, toilet fixtures, wash basins,
and in repairing and painting old
furniture, which was donated by
parents and friends. A separate
power line had to be run to the
building and separate service had
formerly been run from the main
grade school building.
Opened Last Easter .
The Center was officially opened
on the Wednesday after Easter, and
the youth who had not helped with
the arduous jobs of renovating the
building, and their parents found,
to their surprise, a delightful Cen-
ter with ping-pong table, pool table,
card table, snack-bar, dance floor,
juke box and brightly colored
chairs and tables.
A youth organization was per-
fected, complete with constitution,
by-laws, officers and committees.
Membership cards were donated by
the father of one of ‘the members
and approximately 140 members—
teen-age boys and girls began to
assure Shavertown
enjoy a clean, healthful recreation
center in the heart of their own!
community, operated under their |
own rules; financed by their own
efforts, and destined to succeed or
fail by their own whims and de-
sires. The fact that this Center is
functioning successfully at the end
of its first and perhaps most diffi-
cut year, indicates that the youth
of this community are interested
in clean, healthful recreation if it
is made available to them.
The Adult Committee and the
officers have on a number of acca-
sions left discouraged and at times
have wondered if the results were
worth the-effort; what, with lack of
funds to meet necessary bills, nu-
merous parents unwilling to act as
hosts and hostesses when called
upon; refusal of the Community
Welfare Federation to assist the
project financially, and the specter
of other nearby Youth Centers fold-
ing up, apparently for the same rea-
sons. This Adult Committee, how-
ever, is made of sterner stuff and
refused to admit defeat. Their ap-
peals, locally, for assistance met
with more favorable response; the
Junior Women’s Club is now op-
erating the snack bar with one or
more of their members on hand |
each evening the (Center is open
by the Adult Committee in setting
up a recreation center which is pro-
viding clean sanitary recreational
facilities for more than 140 teen-
age youth of the community, they
find themselves faced with a debt
of about $350 which must be met
or financed at this time. Many of
the parents and friends of the Cen-
ter met the plea for funds for this
project in a most generous manner;
some promised but never paid while
others, all too many, just ignored
the plea. It would certainly make
the job of those responsible for
what success has been achieved
much easier if those 'of the parents
and friends who have mot contrib-
uted to date would dig down and
come up with a few dollars to as-
sure the continued success of this
worthy undertaking.
Your presence at the meeting on
Sunday afternoon; your participa-
tion ins the election of officers for
the next year; your ideas and sug-
gestions for improving the Center,
and your active support of ithe of-
ficers and committee by taking your
place when called upon to help, will
of the best
Youth Center possible.
Legion To Hear
Insurance Talk
Lt. George Turn
Will Be Speaker
George Turn, former lieutenant
in the insurance department of the
Navy and now member of the Nav-
al Reserve, has been invited by
Commander Frank Ferry to speak
on government - insurance at the
meeting of Daddow-Isaacs . Post
American Legion next Wednesday
night in Back Mountain Memorial
Library.
Commander Ferry invitees all
veterans whether members of the
Legion or not to attend the meeting
and present any questions they may
have on veteran’s insurance to Mr.
Turn.
There will also be a discussion
of the Legion’s plans for organizing
a baseball team this spring and
further discussion on the selection
of a lot for a new Legion Home.
The Legion now has 106 members.

“STORE TALK”
Watch us: for Govern-
ment surplus items, in the
near future. We can’t tell
you what kind, how much
or how many yet, but we
can assure you that you'll
do well to see them.
Power log saws are here!
with the result that the snack bar
is beginning to show a profit which!
together with income from the |
juke-box is paying for the light and!
heat.
The several women of the com-
munity who have taken on the task
of ‘securing hosts and hostesses have
done an exceptional job in securing
adult supervision for the Center on
the evenings when it is open; their
job has not been made as easy as
it might have been because many
parents seem to feel that the re-
sponsibility for operating ithe Cen-
ter is not theirs, but is the job of
the Adult Committee or anyone else
that will do it. Nevertheless, the
job has been done and it is the
feeling of those responsible that
more and more of the parents are
beginning to realize that they can
and should assume this little duty
one evening every several months.
There are over one hundred fam-
ilies represented in ‘the member-
ship of the Shavertown Tee-Age
Center; two couples are needed to
provide adequate supervision on the
evenings the Center is open,’ and if
every mother and father would co-
operate by taking their turn they
would be called upon once in five
months or approximately twice a
year.
Install $1,000 Improvements
Last fall with the coming of cold
weather a heating plant was in-
stalled at a cost of $600 to keep
the Center comfortable. This was
the second and last major expendi-
ture needed to make the Center
a complete and adequate recreation
center for the youth of this com-
munity. * The total investment in
the Center, including ‘the installa-
tion of water and toilet- facilities,
recreation facilities including a full
size pool table, two full size ping-
pong ' tables, snack-bar, new card
tables, juke-box ,well sanded and
waxed dance floor, small pool table,
and magazine rack had cost the
comnunity less than $1,000. Not-
Come in and see them.
