Of these processes, "jgging" is of great import
ance Jigs are mechanical devices which separate
slate and rock from the coal as it passes through
the breaker. Water. forced constantly through tha
jig floats the coal above the refuse.
Anthracite is sprayed almost continuously with
water throughout the process of its manufacture.
Thus. by removing dirt and dust mine owners pro-
vide standards Of quality which guard consumers
against inferior coal. Dirty slate-fled coal would
cost less to produce. But the consumer would get
less for his money.
So the cost of mining" water must be added to
the cost of producing coal.

COLUMBIA CRAFONOLAS
BACK TO PRE-WAR PRICES

The Columbia Graphophone Com
pany has announced a radical read
justment in the prices of Columbia
Grafonolas. This is the first phono-
graph company to meet the present
trend of prices, and many presage
similar action on tho part of other
companies.
This readjustment 10 even more
sweeping than appears at first sight
1t has carried the average price of
Columbia Grafanolas below the pre-
war level, and these prices are for
models with all the latest improve
ments.
Officials OF the company state that
they are confident that this readjust-
ment in the prices OF their instru-
ments, together with the recent restor-
alton to pre-war prices of Columbia
phonograph records. will give a great
impetus to the sale OF both. March
has always been one OF the biggest
months for the sale of phonograph
records. and the sale of instruments
at tho new prices Is expected to in
crease steadily.

BAND OR BALL TEAM
SUBJECTS OF BALLOT

The Globe-Gazette, of Charles City.
Iowa, is conducting a referendum to
determine whether this lively town
is TO have a band or a baseball team
this summer.
Last year the citizens OF Charles
City put mp $4,000 for a band, which
gave concerts twice daily during the
summer months. The concerts were
very popular, people coming from as
far away as fifty miles to attend
them.
When IT was proposed to repeat the
experiment this summer the baseball
fans set up a counter demand for a
ba bali team.
As means Of arriving at q settle
ment OF the dispute the Globe-Gazette
inserted a ballot in its columns and
requested the people OF the town to
vote for music or baseball. The out
come is awaited with great interest.

CRITICS CALL CRIMI
CARUSO'S SUCCESSOR

"a wonderful new tenor takes Ca
ruso's place." Is what the press is
saying of Giulio Crimi "It is not so
easy for any tenor to slip into Ca
ruso's pompons in 'Pagliacci,'" writes
the critic Of the Evening Mail, "but
Giulio Crimi wore some of his own
last night, and was a Canio that the
big audience at the Metropolitan
seemed to like enormously. He sobbed
out the .Ridi Pagliacci with Latin
abandon. and was vivid in the second
act, where tragedy trips comedy's
heels"

Vocation, and the Vocation records

The Crimi records include an aria
from 'Favorite," the ''Miserere" from
''Trovatore," 'L'Ultima Canzone." the
novelty "Zaza," and an aria from
'T'Africana.' After Crimi's singing
OF the famous "Vesti la Giubba" in
"Pagliacci- he received six curtain
calls at the Metropolitan. a thing that
cannot happen unless an artist has

new COLUMBIA RECORDS
GIVE PLEASING VARIETY

An unusually well-rounded list OF
Columbia Records this month ushers
in the season of Easter music.
Besides the favorite sacred selec-
tions. there are seven popular dance
organizations, as many headliners in
their newest song hits and two wide
ly known instrumentalists.
The nrst of these is Toscha Seidel.
whose sympa thetic violin gives all
the sweetness and tenderness express
ed in Schubert's "Serenade" on q new
Columbia record. Pablo CasaIs, eel
list. lends new interest to Handers
Largo" with a beautiful interpreta-
ton, peculiarly appropriate TO Eas-
ter-tide.
The heart interest Of sacred hymns
finds rich expression in the baritone
Of Oscar Seagle. Nearer My God to
Thee" and 81 Love to Tell the Story"
by Seagle and the Columbia quartette,
will be generally welcomed.
The hit Of Nora Bayes' Broadway
success. ''Her Family Tree" from the
first night on was her optimistic lyric,
"Why Worry" just released on Co
lumbia record. Something about Nora
always puts you in a cheerful humor,
and this catchy song is no exception.
On the other side Of this Columbia
record is "Just Snap Your Fingers at
Care" from "The Greenwich Village
Follies, one Of the musical comedy
successes Of 1920-1921.
To the well-loved songs of the
Southland must now be added "a
Southern Lullaby" sung by the mezzo-
soprano, Barbara MaureL You'll en-
Joy Its sleepy clarinet accompani-
ment and the realistic humming Of
the bees. Nanny Dear" on the
other side Of this new Columbia rec
ord. reaches an unusual climax.
Marion Harris sings from the mn
sicial comedy Sally, Look For the
Silver Lining" with effect. "I'm
