When in doubt, always call a physician. What may be a minor cut, b uise or burn to you may be serious enough to cause complications FLYING SAFER Here's a recipe for safer kite flying: Mix one careful boy or girl with one kite and dry, nonmetallic string; pour into outdoors away from power lines. Not following this recipe, says University of Illinois farm and home safety specialist Gordon McCleary, may mean serious injury or death to your child. It's up to parents to see that youngsters have safe kite string and a good set of simple rules to help them avoid accidents. Good kite string is sturdy and will not conduct electricity. But don't let it get soaking wet, because the water may make the string an electrical conductor. If the kite does tangle with power lines, leave it there. Kites can be replaced easily; a child cannot. Try to keep children out of fields where there are stones, stumps, ditches or other obstacles, McCleary says. Getting that kite into the air takes all the flyer's attention, and he doesn't have time to look out for tripping hazards. it-: Farmers know the peace of mind an assured financial fature can bring.
