Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1916-08-25

Ackley's fourteenth annual combina-
ton auction sale of real estate was held
at the beach baseball park Monday and
Tuesday. There was a good attend
ance at the Monday sale that manifest
ed a greater interest in the bidding than
for two years past, according to a state
ment made by Auctioneer John A.
Ackley. The Tuesday sale was slimly
attended, yet some good sales were
made that encouraged Mr.. Ackley to
announce that another auction sale
would be held on Labor Day. Both
sessions of the sale lasted from 1870
until nearly time for the ball game at
8 o'clock without any intermission for
lunch. Mr.. Ackley, the king of auc-
tioneers, entertained his audience with
one of his characteristic preliminary
talks in which he stated that he had
provided some Il CHI, commonly called
doggies and hoped that he would not
be accused of copfiscating one of the
dogs that took part in the recent dog
parade to help out. He claimed that
he had not intended to hold a sale this
year as he had felt there was q greater
demand for automobiles than for real
estate, but as so many had insisted on
him holding the sale he had done so
and was glad he did as the interest
show n indicated a better market than
he anticipated.
