Four years ago Jesse E. Rector pur
chased from Roy B. Tabor, Trustee, lot
27 bf Platteview Subdivision for 5250
and he has just now sold this lot to L.
F. Simon for $725 cash. No improve
ments were added to thi3 lot and this
instance is pointed to by the owners of
the lots, advertised for sale on the first
page of this issue, as an illustration of
the value of these lots' as an invest
ment. Saturday it wps very evident that tho
people of our city are realizing what a
great sacrifice is really being made nt
the Dixon auction sale. The store Was
packed to its capacity and many were
standing in the street trying to gain,
admission, so eager were the people for
a chance to buy from this fine stock at
really sacrifico prices. Tho sale will
, continue every afternoon and evening
of this week and the indication is that
this will be the'big week of the sale.
' Mr. Dixon says positively the sale will
close Saturday of this week.
