A Close Call for Joe.

Little Joe Armitage had narrow
escape from serious injury or death
last Friday afternoon. He had
started across Oak street, south of
his home, then suddenly wheeled
around and ran right in front of W.
S. Fosters automobile. Mr.. Foster
brought the machine to a standstill
in almost a moments time, but not
before Joe had been knocked down
and thrown under the auto. Joe
was dragged from under the machine
and found to have suffered no serious
injury. Mr.. Foster was not to blame
in the matter. Joe, who is only
four years old, is one of the brightest
and best-liked boys in Princeton, and
his legion Of friends rejoice that he
escaped unscathed.
