Copper Dividends Paid In First
Quarter of 1916

The unparalleled prosperity of
the copper industry is reflected by
dividends, as above distributed by
thirty-two strictly copper produc-
ing companies.
These dividends, though the
greatest to date in the history of the
industry, by no means reflect any
where near the extraordinary pro
fits Of the copper producers. They
are, in fact 500 less than the indi-
Gated earnings Of the companies in
question.
AS result copper shareholders
are receiving millions of dollars in
increased dividends, and they may
look for still larger disbursements.

What the Children Demand

What can we give children to
read?"
Parents, guardians, librarians and
teachers ask, and editors, publishers
and authors attempt to provide an
answer: but there Is general feeling
that the answer Is not satisfactory.
Every one has agreed that children
need literature of their own. which
presumably should be easier to sup
ply than the deeper demands OF the
adult public: plenty of chldren's lit
erature is provided. too; yet there is a
growing uneasiness as parents and
guardians realize that children de-
spise the watered edition OF adult food
that Is offered them.
What do children Ike a~~----
The old stories, of course. fairy
tales and folk tales and myths and
legends but, let us remember, thoss
were. never written for children only:
they represent the cream of the
stories told to all nations through
many centuries; they embody hu-
manity's aspirations. hopes. magma

born. moreover, in ages when people
did things rather than talked things.
and consequently are full of racy ac-
