Although the use OF trailers or
semi-trailers is feasible and profit
able under many conditions. the
truck owner always should consult
the truck maker before installing
such equipment. Adverse operating
conditions sometimes would make
the use Of trailers ruinous, accord
ing 20 Fred q. Wendell, local Pierce
Arrow representative.
Given proper conditions. however,
the trailer or semi-trailer fills a
definite need. Some OF the many
things that trailers can do are: Cd
Reduce load-handling delays. by en-
aiding the operator TO load or un-
load one trailer while the truck is
hauling another; CD haul units too
heavy for a single truck but which
can be moved with the power OF a
single engine. such as boilers. heavy
machinery. etc; CD carry bulky but
light articles which would utilize
only half the power Of the engine
If loaded on TO a single truck Bar

BEN JAMIN G. WATKINS

Benjamin G. Watkins, who passed
awayfat his home on Central street
on Tuesday, was born in Leeds, P. O.,
on March 25, 1848, in which town he
passed his early boyhood and recelv-
I'd his early education. He moved at
the age of seven to Inverness, P. O.,
and resided there until 20 years of
age. From there, he entered the
United States and lived in North
Concord, Vt, pursuing the occupa-
ion of a sawyer in a mill there. He
married Betsy Amandy Rice of North
Concord while there, and moved when
the mill in which he was employed
shut down, to Lyndonville There he
entered the employ of the Boston and
Maine railroad, for which he worked
43 years, 9 months, and some few
days.
After six years of service in Lyn-
donville, he moved to Newport and
was employed in the railroad yards
here until his death. About two
years ago, he retired on account of
failing health, and was pensioned by
the railroad.
Mr.. Watkins was man of great
popularity in Newport, where his even
nature and his generosity were wide
ly known. He was very large man.
and his unusual feats of physical
strength were the source of consid
cradle admiration on the part of his
many associates. He was a Mast:r
Mason, had reached the Commandery
and his LOYALTY to Masonry was a
source of great pride to him.
Mr. Watkins is survived by his
wife, by his daughter, Mrs. Lou

CHARGE SEWER RUINS TUNNEL
Auto officials Complaint Is InVesti-
gated BY Council.

Detroit.-An investigation of COM
plant filed by officers of the Hudson
and Essex Motor Car companies that
completion OF the Connor's Creek
sewer under present tentative plans
will virtually ruin a new 1,500-foot
tunnel, was under way by Public
Works Commissioner Martin and City
Engineer Hubbell. The tunnel con-
meets the two plants and was con-
structed recently at cost Of $250,000.
To carry through present plans,
council members say, the city will be
forced to construct new tunnel for
the motor companies. Changing the
course of the sewer to avoid collision
with the tunnel would cost approx
mately $2,000,00O.
The complaint was made before the
council by ex-Judge William F. Con-
molly, attorney for the Hudson Motor
Car Co.. and Fred II. Currie, plant
superintendent.
The council gave the Hudson COM
pany permission to build the tunnel
almost year ago.
