AERIAL STREET SIGNS NEXT.
Germany Planning To Light It's
ThoroughfRres In the sky.

Berlin, Dec. 17.-Germany is now con-
sidering the question OF lighting aerial
thoroughfares. Experiments at Johannis-
tai. near Berlin. have shown that small
captive balloons can be used TO provide
airmen with light. Street lamps afford
terrestrial lightships and buoys regulate
maritime traffic. For this reason il is
figured that the airmen should have
lights.
The balloons used in the experiments
varied in size The largest had a diane
ter of eight feet and the smallest three
and half feet They were lighted by
electricity, which was conducted by a wire
communicating with the earth. These
lights were visible for six miles. The
Introduction OF the system in Germany,
it is stated. may be regarded as certain.
