CHICAGO, Oct. 17,—Evelyn Ditsrun may be a little girl but she will get along in this little old world.
A hit and run driver struck and demolished her little red wagon Saturday morning and narrowly hit her. Though but six years of age the youngster had the presence of mind to note the number of the auto. She tearfully told about her wagon wreck to a neighborhood officer.
The driver was soon picked up; the judge told he could have his choice, a prison cell or purchase a new wagon for Evelyn. He readily chose the latter.
