MAKING IMPROVEMENTS
For long time teamsters who have oc-
casion TO haul freight TO and from the
freight yard I'm this city have complained
because OF the difficult wheeling and
within few days work has been started
which will greatly remedy the trouble.
Three drives with hard macadam sur
face are being built the length OF the
yard and when completed the difficulties
heretofore experienced will be overcome.
This OF itself is quite satisfactory TO the
teamsters but IL seems like an indication
that the railroad company had given up
all hope OF an early abolishment OF grade
crossings In Pawtucket because when
that is done these freight yards will prob
ably go elsewhere.
