COAL so CHEAP 1T
CAN'T FALL MUCH.
DEALERS ARE TOLD

Boston, March 24.-The cost of ocal
is not likely to come down for an
other year, Theodore T. Hardwood
of Lowell said in an address to the
New England Coal Dealers Associa-
ton today He gave four reasons for
his statement:
THAT coal having advanced only
$40 per cent. in the four years to
December 1920, has not attained the
dizzy heights reached by other COM
modities from which to drop; 2-the
increase in freight rates; 3-the
agreement between mine operators
and miners that has until March 1922
to run, and 4-that figures compiled
by New England retailers show con-
siderable additions to the cost of do
ing business.

At college we had a professor OF

of his pet theories was the nter-re-
lation between nature and correct de-

has been only one designer who never
made a mistake, and the more we
study His work the better machines
we will build.

And again, in speaking of general
