The Return From Kannecott
 Stock

The return to- the Kennecott Cooperation by reason of the doubled Utah Copper dividend is close to one dollar on all out standing Kennecott stock. In other words, almost one-third of Kennecott's present dividend rate will be covered by dividends from the Utah corpor ration. Ken npCott holdings of 616. 5O4 Utah were carried on the books, as of DECEMBER, 31, 1921. at around $70 a share, or total of $43, ,295 209. At one time the book value of these holdings was in excess of $50, 100000.
 ORIGINAL exchange of Kenne colt for Utah, effected in 1915, was on a basis of 112 shares of Kennecott for one of Utah.
 By this transaction Kennecott acquired 4O4,5O4 shares for 6O6; 756 shares of it's own stock. It has since increased it's holdings materially by purchase in the

A recent article written by col lage professor amply illustrates the modern trend of a college education, in one paragraph, when he states that only 3O% of the students have the mental equipment necessary to absorb anything from modern college courses.
 Guess the remaining 70% merely lick the sugar coating off the pill.

 If Delegate Sutherland's fisheries charges are mere political maneau- yer, why were the regulations amended, why is Senator Jones coming north to investigate ard why doesn't the Dept. of Commerce refute the charges more specifically instead of dealing in gen. eralities?
