Away from Electric Lines !
Kite flying is great fun but danger lurks when kites
are flown near electric lines. Many a child has lost
his life using wire for a kite string or climbing a
pole to get a tangled kite. Play safe by following
these rules:
1. Use only dry, cotton string to fly your
kite.
2. Do not use metal or wire on kites.
THE
THE NOCONA NEWS, Nocona, Tex. March 19,1948
3. Do not climb a pole to get a tangled
kite.
4. Fly your kite only in open fields away
from power lines or busy highways.
If your kite becomes entangled in electric wires,
don't risk injury by trying to get it down yourself.
Call our office ana we'll send a man to remove it
for you safely.
