ADVENTUREOF
THE TWINS
BY Olive Barton Roberts

Off to MixUp Land flew Nancy
and Nick with the Magical Mush-
room between them.
They crossed desert and an
ocean and an island and about .
dozen mountains and at last thew
came to country where, instead OF
the sun, the moon and stars were
shining, although it was Broad day
light everywhere else.
"There is Mix-Up Land" pointed
the Mushroom. even the days and
nights are mixed up, and you'll find
that the seasons are, too. When it
is winter in other places, it is sum
mer in Mix-Up Land, and 'tothcr way
round. Here we are. We'd better
get down to the ground before some
CT the Mix-uppers think we are some
queer sort of bird and shoot u.s.
The Green Shoes set the Twins
down ever so gently and the Magical
Mushroom also landed without a
bump, with his parachute hat.
The Twins looked around curious
ly. But before they had time to take
in the sights, someone approached.
1t was a lady ina satin dress with a
long train behind. In her hand she
carried tin pail. As she came near
she made a little curtsy
"How do you do?" she asked po-
litely. at is fine morning this
evening. When did you leave?"
"Oh,r cried Nancy in astonish-
ment. 1--WE didn't leave. We just
came. And it isn't either morning
or evening, It's noon everywhere
for we heard the dinner-bells ring
ing as we passed through the
towns"
"l--I beg your pardon" said the
lady in the satin dress. "Then it is
just the right time for milking. III
have to hurry, for if the servants
get down to their breakfast before

this land the mistress does the milk

many disappointments since the
armistice, but he need not cOnfine
his Bible reading to the Lamenta-
tons of jeremiah.
For the last four years the
writer's of the Liberal Radica
school have been filling books an /
periodicals with prophesies OF
calamity. BY all logic and reckon
ing Europe should today be in
starving anarchy. and America
only a little better off. 1t Is now
history. and not opinion to say that
between 1918 and 1923 this terrible
thing has not come TO pass.
The truth surely is that while
the financial factors are Still sriev
Gus. what are far more important
the human factors have come back.
A sound currency and buOyant
foreign trade are the health OF
every nation, but men can carry on
without them The human stock is
tougher, the common sense of the
people is greater than many fore
casters of stark ruin were WILLING
to admit. The recovery has not
been even: agricultural nations
have gained far more rapidly than
industrial but every step of prog
rcss is so much to the general adj
vantage.
What is the situation among the
European nations?
In Holland and the scandinavian
lands, neutrals in the war, condi
tions on the whole already seem
ito he reasonably normal.
Russia this year will probably
be able to export a little grain.
This means that the starvation and
agony are largely over, while Ito
quote Mr.. Hoover) "the relics of
SOvietism and Communism are
slowly boiling away" Poland,
which has been especially selected
for disaster by the pessimists, is
carrying bravely on. and her agri-
ulture reviving, even if her rather
small indutrial district is far from
prosperous. CZecho-Slovakia seems
in a distinctly hopeful condition.
TIE same is true of Jugo-Slavia
and Rumania. both preponderantly
agricultural countries. Hungary
is more afflicted seemingly by the
loss of territories than by any in
ternal element of disaster.
France sorely needs the German
indemnity, but her normal internal
life is largely restored. In Bel
GUM it is practically the same.
Italy probably has now the most eff
fective government possessed for
many years, and the danger of a
great social upheaval seems rapid
ly passing. OF course no one can
pretend the state of Austria and of
Germany is happy. but even there
the chances of Bolshevist revolu-
lions Uhe last resource of the des-
perate) seems ever less and less.
1t is going to be a slow hard
process to get the world back
where it was in 1914, but there are
swallows suggesting the summer.
There are other tests for progress
than the rate Of exchange.-Minne-

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

Cfapangers are routed by the news that pig iron
was made in January than any month since October
Pass the word aong-"the best in 81 months"
The pig IRON output in January the largest

then the production less that per above the first

A CAREFUL OF MOODS

A street car full of people is a
complex thing defined in terms OF
moods. There are as many moods
as there are people.
One man has awakened an hour
late to begin with. He has cut
himself while shaving. and in his
haste has taken his coffee much too
hot. His face has about as much
cheerfulness. as there is in morn
ing when the fog rolls in thick
from Lake Michigan. He comes in,
sits down-and adds nothing to the
Car except another negative
mood.
Another man is going down to
the office feeling that he has more
work for the day than any one per.
son can get through with. He
feels the strained expectancy Of
the next eight hours. His contri.
button is negative also.

able at once. 1t may be the stenog-
rapher who is happy in her work,
the business man who is confident
and successful. The influence Of
the newcomer spreads to those
around and then on in widening
circles.
We once knew a man who under
stood the psychology of this thing
He made it point to say Good
morning" to the conductor loud
enough for all to hear. AS he took
his seat his face radiated happiness.
Perhaps he merely took out his
paper and read contentedly. He
need do no more for he had struck
the keynote for those around him.
