To left align items in an HTML table, you can use the "text-align" property in CSS and set it to "left" for the table cells or columns that you want to align to the left. Here's an example:

```
<table>
  <tr>
    <th>Header 1</th>
    <th>Header 2</th>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td style="text-align: left;">Left-aligned text</td>
    <td>Default-aligned text</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td style="text-align: left;">Another left-aligned text</td>
    <td>Default-aligned text</td>
  </tr>
</table>
```

In this example, the "style" attribute is used to set the "text-align" property to "left" for the first column of the table. This will left align the text within that column, while the second column will remain aligned to the default (which is left-aligned for text in LTR languages like English).

You can also apply the "text-align: left;" style to the entire column by adding it to the CSS selector for the table cells in that column. For example:

```
<style>
  td:first-child {
    text-align: left;
  }
</style>

<table>
  <tr>
    <th>Header 1</th>
    <th>Header 2</th>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Left-aligned text</td>
    <td>Default-aligned text</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Another left-aligned text</td>
    <td>Default-aligned text</td>
  </tr>
</table>
```

In this example, the "td:first-child" selector targets the first column of the table and applies the "text-align: left;" style to all cells in that column.
