thing within reason If she would
give the beret away and never
put it on again. At the moment,

WARN THE CHILDREN

Now is the time for flying kites and what kid is
there who does not like to fly kite In factt it the
flying OF kite in the hands of Benjaman Franklin that
caused us to write this article. Flying kites in and
around high voltage power lines is decidedly danger
Gus, not only to the flying the kite but also to peo-
pie perhaps in entirely different part of town, for
instance, some in a hospital dental chair who
might suffer greatly the electric power should fail
and the power line would be likely to fail if a kite
should lodge into the wires
Ben Jarratt local manager of the Arizona Edison
Co., Inc pointed this to us the other day and asks
the children and their parents to cooperate with the
various electric companies in dscouragng the practice
of flying kites where there is possibility of it going
into power line For he says if doubt the dang
er of this we only have to read in the Phoenix Republic
of week to where child there eectrocut
ed while playing with his kite accidently flew into
a-high voltage power line.
