Modern Sales Pavillion.
From Thursday'e Daily
The airdome on South Fifth

a place of entertainment for the
showing of the movies as well as
vaudeville, will soon resound with
the notes of the auctioneer's voice,

Mr. Vallery has long thought that
this community was in need of a
place of uis nature and the site of
the airdome was particularly pleas
ing as it is but a half block off the
main street of the city and within
easy reach of everyone. It is ample
to handle large sales or small ones
and is being well arranged for this
purpose.
Sheds are being arranged for the
storage of live stock, autos and other
articles that may be brought in for
sale and where they can be cared for
very easily and inspected by pros
pective purchasers. Mr. Vallery
states that he is ging to specialize
m the handling of new and second
hand autos and parts, with the use
of the pavillion when needed for
live stock sales, handling of large
and small articles of machinery and
any other line that may be desired to
offer for sale.
With Frank in charge of the pavil
lion there will be sure something
doing in the sales line and will satis
fy a long felt want in this commun
