The merchants do not want any OF
their neighbors to get the idea that
these are trade "sandbagging trips
as one man expressed it. The local
merchants are not trying to srao
legitimate trade from the merchants
In the othe rtowns. What goes out
of that town, they would be glad to
get naturally, bit they are not trying
to sandbag apy of the business away
from the town merchants.
All of the proposed trips or the

purpose of getting better acquainted
with their neighbors, meeting the
business men and the people in other
towns, and generally promoting the
friendly spirit among the neishoor-
ing places.

and become stiff necked and stubborn.
The average age of the Roman youth
who married at his fathers behest

gave all her possessions to the groom.
and the other. without "manus." in
