This will be the tenth time Mr. Wink has worked the sale sponsored by the lone United Church of Christ. He remarked the first time he came to lone for the event, his son, Eddie was just tall enough to reach his belt buckle. Now, Eddie is nineteen years old and tall enough to look Dad in the eye. Don Wink has been an auctioneer since he was seven teen years old. His father was an auctioneer and Don served as his helper. One night his father became ill during a sale and could not continue. Young Don was told to take over. This was his start and auctioneering has been his work for the 39 years that have followed. It is the opportunity to meet people and to work with livestock that keeps the sales ring interesting to Don.

It takes training to be able to do this without suffering ill effects. Don says he doesn't have trouble with hoarseness but that he is always careful not to hurt his voice either. He states the loud speaker systems available now do much to make the auction eer's job easier. According to Don there is something amusing or unusual that happens at every sale. He Northwestern Livestock Com mission Co. in Hermiston, The Dalles Auction Yard, both, in partnership with E. P. Snyder. He has been in Hermiston since 1954 and lived in The Dalles before then. The old-time auctioneers re ferred to their chanting as "crying". Don prefers the term "working". An old-timer might say he "cried the auction". Don would say he "worked the sale". There is a certain protocol observed in working a sale. The auctioneer is always ready and alert to receive a higher bid but he never asks it. Mr. Wink says he doesn't even like to use the term "give me". The chant he uses is merely a repetition of the highest bid he has received. He uses a change of pace, a different pitch of voice, and a variety of tactics to keep the crowd interested and the sale from becoming humdrum. An auctioneer may use his voice steady as much as 7 to interrupting every program constantly with commercials. Isabelle was a delightful girl and everyone there enjoyed the opportunity to meet her and hear her speak. There was also a report from Gene Majeske on the last meeting of Rodeo Board con cerning the choosing of rodeo princesses. 7 . i T ffl Boys interested in pre- Masons are senting a scholarship to the senior boys here and in a number of other places.

Don Wink, Auctioneer cited as examples a horse, that had just been advertised as a kid's horse, suddenly threw his rider and a milk cow, suppos edly gentle, lowered her head and put the arena workers on the fence.
