Hertford Phone directory to be completed soon ELIZABETH CITY, NC-Prepara tion of forthcoming Albemarle area ? telephone directory is nearly com ! pleted. T.F. Daniels, District Com ; mercial Manager for Caroline Tele ? phone, said today that April 24, 1987 ? is the last day for requesting changes [ in the new directory. ; Caution i urged ! With the onset of pleasant weather, ? North Carolina Power is reminding residents to take extra care in out side activities, such as kite flying and yard work. I Since kites need so much room to I maneuver, fly them only in open fields, meadows or parks where they will not become entangled in power lines. If a kite begins to fall toward a power line, release the string imme diately. If the kite becomes caught in a power line, make no attempt to free it. Instead, call the local North Caro lina Power office and explain what . has happened. Since working with * power lines requires special equip * ment, a qualified service employee I will be sent to remove the kite safely. * Also during this time of year, many people will be planting gardens and ? performing routine yard work. Check I for underground electric wires be ' fore digging and planting. * - Take care that trees will not hit * power lines or utility poles. If a tree ' near a power line needs to be re ; moved, contact your local North Car olina Power office for guidance. Because all electric power lines are potentially hazardous, keep lad ders and tools away from lines dur ing spring cleaning and home im provements. In addition, a metal television or citizens band radio antenna touching an electric line for even a fraction of a second can be deadly. For this rea son, use extreme caution when instal ling or removing any antenna.
