The F1rSL Call or Autumn The summer filled with love and pain Holds promise in it's sweet refrain AS leafy wealth of many trees
 Times the contralto of the breeze A hyler snugly hid away
 Adde's shrill soprano to the lay, As crickets chirp and katydid
 Take softer tones that blend amid The frogs trombone that never lags Beside the pool, beneath the flags. Across the leaves soft fOotfall trips Like touch of keys by finger-tips, And as the brOOdy twilight falls Through silvery greyness Autumn
 calls:

It has been settled. so we are told, that producers of anthracite coal will endeavor to distribute to dealers dur ing the period from April 1, 1922, to April l, 1928. 60qo of the tonnage taken by the dealer during the F months previous. In effect. . if last year we bought 1000 tons of coal. we may hope to receive this year. 500 tons. We use the word hope" adVisedly. for absolutely nothing is guaranteed to us. State Fuel Commissions have been appointed. and we have already been requested to furnish to the Con neeticut State Fuel Administrator, fig ures regarding our tonnage taken last year and this. We have furnished the requested figures, and if a local Fuel Administrator is appointed. we shall follow their suggestions implic- itly. Meanwhile we shall pursue our own modest efforts to care for the needs of our customers as well as the present unfortunate situation permits.
 However. suggestions and instruc- lions for distribution are of little use when the coal is lacking. Since the miners returned to their duties. we have received from the D. & H. Com pany, the source of our normal and principal supply. pleasing promises and nothing more. Some day they mil oh hut nd how fast we do not know. Therefore, in order to expedite the delivery of coal immediately required by our cus- toners, we have bought and will re- ceive soon approximately 100 TONS EACH OF STOVE AND NUT COAL. This coal will cost us at the mines
 $12.5O Freight, 4.66 Cost per ton Gross ton F. O. B.
 cars here, 1715 Cost per Net ton F. O. B. cars
 here 15.32 We shall store this coal apart from our regular stock and offer it in any quantity not to exceed 6O% of your last seasons requirements. for imme- diate delivery upon arrival, at $500 per ton, less the usual cash discount The present advantage to you will be that you will get that much coal soon CT than we could otherwise give it to you. Our so called normal supply will be distributed when we get it, in lots of not more than two tons to a customer. The above price looks, and is high, but it would be useless to aDOligiZa for what iS havOnd our oou- troll If the opportunity appeals to you let us know at once We offer it only to our regular customers, and first come. first served
