ment, the kite as q telephone wire-car-
rier, and the indications Of limtless
future are plain. Experiments with Kites
at Governors Island, in New York mar
Dor, have conclusively proven that 1t Is
possible to send up a camera from inside
the lines of one army--the camera being
attached TO a kite-and take an accurate
photograph of the Entertainments or posi-
ton Of the enemy thereby, and TO learn
in fairly accurate fashion Of their num-
ber ON several occasions this year In
New York photographs have been taken
Of parades in this fashion. and with the
very best possible results. To suggest
that this could be done fifteen months
ago would have provoked derision. There
is Just as much reason for not regarding
the telephone kite flying experiment vita
credulity as there would have been for
decrying the other. The results of the
English experiment, even though they
have lust become known, have already
created no little talk in United States
naval circles.
