First Sales Day a Big
Success.

The first Sales Day in Mans.
field was staged last Saturday,
and to say it. was a decided
success is putting it very mildly.
The streets were thronged with
hundreds of people and for the
most part they came to buy and
to take advantage of the many
bargains offered by our live
merchants and business men. 1t
is estimated by very conserva
tive men that something like 400
or 500 vehicles and cars were in
and out of Mansfield during the
day.
On the Auction Block several
hundred dollars worth of stock,
houeshcld goods and other stuff
was disposed of.
The merchants all reported
good business and busy day,
and it seemed that the purchas.
ers were satisfied with their
buy, and indicated that they ex.
pected to return to Mansfield
more often in the future.
Arrangements for the next
Sales Day, Saturday, May 28th,
are being arranged for and it is
hoped to make this a much bet
