While returning from Hutchinson
one day this week in an automobile,
Albert Watkins of this city, as careful
driver as there is, had the mis-.
fortune to strike five year old child
at Sterling, causing some injury. 1t
seems that the little one had started
across the street, but seeing the auto
attempted to turn back, getting close
enough to the machine for one of
the lamps to strike his head. At last
reports he was getting along very
we'll. Mr.. Watkins was driving along
very slow at the time the accident
happened. Too much care can not
be exercised by either drivers or
parents of children in regard to the
little ones being on the street. They
have many narrow escapes in thi.
city. As matter of fact there is too
much fast going by the autos on the
streets of Great Bend.
