The currency is chiefly cigarettes, like any other continental black market. But there is not a black market like this anywhere else in Europe. The Americans appear to accept black market deals between their soldiers and control commission personnel and the Germans as inevitable. Instead they try to discourage SCOTTISH GIRL TO WED HERE Prince Rupert will be journey's end for a prospective overseas brido on Sunday morning when Miss Mary Murray of Glasgow, Scotland, steps down the gang plank of the coast vessel Princess Norah to be greeted by her fiance.

The barter centre has been doing a roaring business for five months and seems to grow in popularity both with the Germans and Americans. British and Canadians in Berlin also patronize it. Allied personnel go in one entrance to the big hut where the market is located, with cigarettes, coffee, canned goods or chocolate and trade them for barter points. The goods accepted must be imported privately and articles sold In army and control commission canteens are not acceptable. TRADING ALSO IN HOUSEHOLD GOODS At the other end of the sprawling hut, Germans shuffle in with household and personal articles they want to trade. They also receive barter points for 'cigarettes, food and other goods turned in by the Allies. The hut looks like a small town general store, with German goods heaped on wooden shelves, attended by German clerks.

Several thousand Germans daily haul goods to this centre to swap for precious points. Late last year there was a scare that the centre would be closed when a special American investigating committee recommended the private importation of cigarettes be banned. But Lt.-Gen. Lucius D.

As the royal barber. Bob has loo many close shaves with thf temper of Louis XV and the latter, in a lather of rage, causes j Bob almost to lose his head. Disguised as a nobleman, Bob escapes to Spain but, even In Madrid, he is forced to continue his masquerade, that of one of France's most deadly swordsmen and greatest lovers. This situation provides the master comedian with all he nerds to dispense his hilarious brand of tomfoolery. Joan Caulfickt is cast as a scullery maid in the palace who is loved by Beaucaire but who is ambitious to become one cf the court's favorites. She incurs the displeasure of the Queen and is exiled to Spain where Hope wins her in an ending that is uproarious as it is unpredictable.
