The operator at the reel must permit the
wire to unwind somewhat. in case The
wind Is very, strong. so that the STRAIN,
which is then apt TO be very great IL me

the unwlndng of the wire. Skill and judg-

landing line he must gauge his position

the pulley will have run up TO the extreme

THE successful landing Of the kite in

breaking of the kite itself or the parting

must be so light in weight, and there

factor Of safety Is possible, and, for this
reason. a certain degree OF caution must
be exercised against undue strains when
the wind is unusually high. When the
