LONDON, Nov. 13. Princes
Maud, niece of King George, was
married to Lord Carnegie this morn

Wellington Barracks, at which the
bridegroom is stationed as an of
ficer of the king’s guards. The
wedd'ng which was celebrated in
the presence of the king and queen
other members of the royal fam

xv guests was the second royal
event of its kind in London this
month, following closely upon the
marriage of the king's cousin,
Lady Mountbatten, to the crown
prince of Sweden.
The streets leading to the chapel
were lined with people. The par
ents of the bridegroom, the Earl
and Countess of Southesk, stood in
side the altar rail with the mem
bers of the royal family during the
ceremony.
Lord Carnegie ranks as a com
moner, since his title is one es
courtesy, owing to the fact that he
is the heir of the Earl of Sotath
esk. He is 30 years old and his
bride is of the same age. Her moth
er, the Princess Royal Louise, is

BERLIN TOURIST TRAVEL
SHOWS MARKED DECREASE
BERLIN, Nov. 13. (By As
sociated Press) —Berlin attracted
88,850 visitors during September,
retd of these 9, 354 were foreign
ers. America furnished 1,215 of
these visitors, but showed a larger
number than any other foreign
country. Sweden was second with
944, Austria supplied 870 tourists
and Russia 859. There were only
112 from France and Belgium to
gether.
These figures are the lowest
monthly record which hap been re
ported for several years, and they
spell disaster for hotelkeepers.
Many of the larger hotels now
have entire floors closed up, and
hotel employes are finding it dif
ficult to get positions.
The number of visitors to Berlin
in Augusta was 112,290, which was
a great decline over August < f
last year. Increased railway fares
have undoubtedly done much to
discourage Germans from travel
ing. Trains all seem to be crowd
ed, but the number of trains has
been greatly reduced.
The sad part about these one
piece bathing suits is they are not
big enough for winter underwear.
