Kenyon has had the advantage of an excf'llent schooling.<br />
He attended the Moses Brown School, the Gordon<br />
School, and the Providence Country Day School· -all<br />
located in Providence, Rhode Island. He then went on<br />
to Deerfield Acade'my for further preparatory work<br />
before entering business school. Since he has always<br />
planned on entering the' Production and Sales divisions<br />
of the silver industry, Kenyon desired to complete his<br />
education with training in a business school. This being<br />
the casc J<br />
he began to look around, after he graduated<br />
from Deerheld Academy, with the hope of entering the<br />
school where he felt he could receive the most complete,<br />
thorough, and practical business training. After investigating<br />
the various schools, he rinally decided on <strong>Babson</strong><br />
Institutf'.<br />

survey on the production of Silver in the enited<br />
States over the pe'riod of the last ten years. He also did<br />
special work in regard to the probkm of government<br />
farm aid in relation to the farmer.<br />
