Wood Running out onto the pavement from behind a parked car on Saturday morning, Jim Hamilton, young son of Mr. and Mrs. W. Hamilton of town, was struck by a car, owned and driv- en by Mr. F. W. Duncan, but fortun- ately escaped with only a few bruises. Mr. Duncan was proceeding at a slow rate of .speed at the time and stopped wjthin ten feet, but struck the lad with the fender and tossed him to the pavement. Jim had only a small cut on his arm and .some bruises to reoiind him to look and see what is coming before he steps onto the roadway. The Duncan car had a slight dent in the fender. How the youngster es- caped so easily is hard to explain, even though the driver was travelling slowly and watching the road.
