Main St., Mount Joy Phone 653-1861 Watch out when flying kites Many young people (and some older ones) like to fly kites during the warm months now beginning. Here are some tips about safe kiting: —never fly kites or model aiplanes near electric lines; —don’t use metal wire for a kite string or fly a kite in the rain. You or your child may be electrocuted by doing this. Everyone knows that Ben Franklin flew a kite in the rain to prove that lightning is electrical. But most people don’t know that Franklin wasn’t standing in the rain when he did it. Ben stood inside a shed door so that he would not be holding a wet string when the light- ning struck the kite. Franklin was the first man to succeed with this experi- ment because he was the first to survive it. A Russian man tried the same thing two weeks before Franklin's experiment and died. Incidentally, kites that contain metal frames or cloths are also unsafe, as they attract electricity.
