LOST CHANCE TO .,~. SELL SURPLUS COAL

Copenhagen, Aug. 4.--rThe United States lost a great opportunity to sell her surplus coal,'' a leading Danish knporter told the Associated Press correspondent here today, because 1n 1919 and 1920 when Amercian sellers had the European market at their mercy, they made the mistake of sending to Europe coal of very poor quality and charged eXorbitant prices For it.
 As result of this policy, he said, during the recent British coal strike, when practically no coal was obtain able from Great Britain, hardly any Scandinavian orders for coal were placed in America despite the fact that stocks on hand were nearly eX- hausted. Importers preferred to run the risk of running short to taking an inferior quality. eff American coal is to regain the reputation it has lost in European markets there must be an effective official guarantee of it's quality based on analysis says the Bureau of Mines.
 The Danish commercial adviser in New York recently reported that ''it Is difficult to blame any individual American exporter for the general conditions prevailing in the American coal export trade conditions for which America will pay by the loss of market of great importance to the nations coal industry"

HAD TO BE TIED UP. When Grandmother Dipped Candles On the Old Farm.

There was another event that took place one a year in the big kitchen so much more exciting than spinning that instead of being allowed to sit at liberty, with directions and eau lions, we had to be tied to the table legs with a clothes line. or we would have been covered with grease. It was a. mysterious proceeding, which began with my grandmother spread Ing a space on the floor with Albany Journals, and Ontario County Repos- ttories, and Waterbury Americans. Then she stirred the contents of a brass kettle that hung on the crane, and took up the Waterbury Amer1- eans cherished souvenirs of her na- live town, and replaced them with primary Repositories. Next she brought four kitchen chairs and set Ehen on the four corners of the rec angle of newspapers and connected them with two poles. Then she stir .ed the brass kettle again and looked It the clock. Then she proceeded to bring in a large number of rods, each ,f which was Iooped with six twisted Nicks, and laid the ends of the rods neatly on the poles- It was then that we were tied up with little Tree .ope allowed for limited range, before he brass kettle was emptied into the copper boiler.
 And now the fun began. when my randmother dipped tho first two rods If wicks into the boiler of melted tall nw' and we danced as much as the able legs would permit. It was two ods at & time and then two more. , yver and sover again until the full crown candles hung in rows. slender 1t the top and enlarging to a thick pointed end at the bottom. It took ,orne of the joy out of our young ives when the tin n1ou1ds came and 1ut and end to candle-dippping.
