Wednesday, November 16, 1994 Wednesday, November 16, 1994 The Castlegar Sun ON THE MOVE: Kids & Tobacco it's a crime. PICTURE YOUR CAR, TRUCK, RV, BOAT ETC. in ON THE MOVE for 3 weeks! Car Alarms Car theft is on the rise. One motor vehicle is stolen every 20 seconds, 22 percent of all thefts are items taken from motor vehicles, and another 15.6 percent are theft of motor vehicle parts and acces- sories such as Cassette and CD players, CB radios and cellular phones. However, installing a security sys- tem in your vehicle can offer some protection from theft and may even deter would-be thieves. Ike Braga would like to ‘ invite all his customers PAST-PRESENT-FUTURE to stop in and see him at TYPES OF SECURITY SYSTEMS There are many different types of car security devices. Here are some examples: - A blinking light on the dash or the doors lets thieves know that you have set an alarm (just knowing a securi- ty device is in use discour- ages many thieves), + an electric hood lock foils thieves who try to disable your alarm by disconnecting your battery cables; photo description DEADLINE: Friday, 10 am NO DEALERS, NO REFUNDS 465 Columbia Avenue, Castlegar 365-5266 Dennis Bedin Lome Ashman 367-7187 364-2909 693-2254 VILLAGER @ Cancun @ Bermuda (@ Orlando @ Ft.

COST Some fully accessorized systems cost as much as $1000. Other simple, active systems cost less than $100. Less-expensive options are: locks for the steering wheel, accelerator and brake pedals, wheels, sunroof and T-tops; kits for etching your vehicle identification number on car WE DO CUSTOM WORK Mon. - Fri. ¢ 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. Sat. ° 9 a.m. - 1 p.m. ON THE MOVE windows and other parts (making it harder for a thief to sell them); and devices to lock your cassette or CD receiver into the dash or remove it when you leave the vehicle. It’s a good idea to match the system to the value of your vehicle, its contents, the degree to which vehicles like yours are known to be stolen, and the likelihood of crime in the area in which you park your vehicle. Bot- tom line — protect yourself and your car — the initial investment can save you money and grief by protect- ing you from theft. Extend the life of quality outerwear with proper care Today’s well-equipped out- doorsman gives just as much consideration to his outer- wear as he does to his other hunting and fishing equip- ment. It’s not unusual to spend $1,000 on top-of-the- line coats, pants, boots, hats, gloves and other garments, all in the name of comfort in cold, wet weather. The money is well-spent when it’s invested in high- value, weatherproof apparel. But to maximize that invest- ment and maintain perfor- mance, it’s wise to make the effort to care for today’s high-tech outerwear. GORE-TEX® outerwear, the industry standard for waterproof/breathables, uses a wide variety of fabrics. W.L. Gore & Associates, Inc. offers the following easy tips for the care of high-tech outerwear: « Follow the manufacturer’s care instructions.on the sewn- ifflabel!'

You might eventually need to use a commercially- available water-repellent product to treat the fabric. + If you often wear your GORE-TEX outerwear around saltwater, occasionally rinse or wash it. This will pre- vent the damp or clammy feeling when salt accumulates. With proper care, a GORE-TEX® garment will last years longer than less expensive products, making it one of the outdoorsman’s best investments.

NOBODY BUT NOBODY HAS LOW PAYMENTS LIKE CASTLEGAR MAZDA ‘94 MAZDA 323 Money available for small communities (NC) - People with disabili- ties who live in small commu- nities often have a difficult time getting around. Many don’t enjoy the kind of acces- sible services that their big city counter-parts have. In an effort to make travel for per- bus systems offering scheduled pickup and drop-off services, can apply for funding to cover the cost of purchasing new vehicles or converting existing ones. Grants of up to $50,000 are available. Public or private groups sons with disabilities easier, Transport Canada, as part of a five-year strategy, is making money available to communi- ties with populations under 10,000 so that they can make their transportation systems accessible to everyone, dis- abled and non-disabled. Under the Accessible Vehi- cle Acquisition Program (AVAP), funding to cover 75 per cent of the costs of con- verting new mini-vans will be made available. The pur- chase of new “purpose-built” vehicles will be subsidized by 50 per cent, up to a maxi- mum of $20,000. Fully accessible ity g to provid ib) transport in communities of less than 10,000 will be eligi- ble for funding.
