UPSIDE DOWN By Mary Graham Bonner

we'll stop in here for some re- treatments" the Little Black Clock told the children.
 What a very queer house." Peg gy remarked.
 Just an idea of the owner" the Little Black Clock said. The own CT decided that so many more oi his friends came from the air and landed their planes on his roof, he would have his front door steps up there.
 That's why you sec he has the chimneys down where the cellar used to be.
 There's an opening down here so we can get in from the ground Our taxi driver went little be- yond, or rather a little below, the place he should have gone. He could have left us on the roof.
 Then we could have gone in the front door"
 What a very, very funny idea, ; Peggy laughed They went inside and it was just the strangest place they had ever seen.
 The owner did not seem to be around. At any rate, they wan dered about.
 At the top of the house was the front hall, and the living room was there, too.
 The bedrooms were all down stairs Peggy particularly enjoyed 1 wandering about. She adored houses and keeping house and play ing house and everything that hac to do with such places. The refreshments they had were quite delicious, but they got then in such an odd fashion. The Little Black Clock pressed bells here ane there and food on plates came right out of openings in the walls.
 "The owner said we must make ourselves at home" he explained.

During .iie year St. Thomas which had complained o1 oe- cline in the number of visiting ships, saw more Tn the port than in any previons year Eght thousand tons of sugar exported; exports and imports increased and the deposits in the local banks were three times the total of 1917 The inhabitants, most of them speaking English, welcomed the flag of the United States and after some dull years are now better employed and have more or the comforts of life

ONE THING IS ASSURED.

paoent events have disclosed that, notWitnstanu- inp the misunderstanding coming from the failure of the late Geneva naval conference, perilaieiO peace among the Anglo-Saxon Nations IS as heai y assured as anything in life. It IS very pAiii " everybody now that never again VIII there pe "iiou conflict between English speaking peoples 1ie Si'i' of Premier Macdonald has emphasized ths asSur ance.
 Commenting upon this situation the ManchesIei Guardian one of the most powerful ol Ehehsi papers, on the date of MT MacDonaos aiiN" in the United States, sad
 Englishmen-and doubt Americans-oi
 all parties and opinions are willing to assert
 their belief that whatever wars there may
 vet be in the world again can there
 be an Anglo American war. II that IS noV
 only the fact but is known and felt to pc
 the fact just as the inhabitants or surrey
 know it to be the fact that they will never be called upon to take up arms against the
 inhabitants of Sussex IL "aS of course to enable MT Macdonald to make
 the best possible of this national sen
 timent of goodwill that the King has hao
 the happy inspiration of sending him
 message of good wishes on the eve of his
 departure. That is an unusual course ana
 would be an impossible one if MT. Mac
 Donald were setting out on an ordinary
 mission as to the purpose of which the
 least breath of doubt or criticism could
 come from any quarter.
 To have eliminated the possibility Of war
 between the British Empire and the United
 States of America is to have eliminated It
 from large part of the world
 It is certain that the events of the British Pre- miers visit in America added to that assuranc and made clearer its existence, but American an British relations rest upon a firmer foundatio than the advent in power of any man or party either America Britain, or upon what any ma or group or party have done could do. Reall there has been practically danger of war be tween English speaking nations for half cen tury. There has been angry talk at times, an there may be again, but the peoples understan each other too well and both are too fairly dis posed for differences to bring about war. The grea benefit therefore of recent manifestations is not much their guaranty of peace among Anglo Saxor but the fine effect the conversations have had o other peoples It has been valuable, too, becaus it has served to mobilize the peaceful intention and purposes of English speaking peoples in beha of the cause of peace everywhere.

INSURGENTS ARE NOT FEARFUL.

New York newspapers say the Insurgent Repub-
 lican Senators scoff at the suggestion of danger that the Republican organization will attempt to read them out of the party or to over-tax itself to defeat them for renomination. They ironically call attention to the fact that most of them were read out of the Republican Party early in the Harding Administration, but the time quickly came when the regulars glad to have their help in the organization of Congress. They believe the
