Fortunately the AirBC crew did what they do best, making people feel totally com- fortable. “I saw the AirBC steward and he smiled and said hi. The pilot smiled as well. The steward talked to me about where I was going and how I was feeling and before I knew it we were landing.” The experience changed Nicole’s attitude about flying forever. “I love flying now, I can’t wait until the next time.” OUR AIRLINE 1S MORE THAN PLANES.

In fact she stayed close to home for about eighteen years. Her fiancé was doing a lot of travelling however, as he played for the Vancouver Canucks hockey farm team. A rendez-vous was set and she was given her tickets. “We so basically I had no choice except to fly.” airBC @& ) = ee ec MMe Ae ee Me ie PA A Oe he ee on vio- lence in society.

Sweeping the floor, folding dish towels and eye- -hand ¢ coordination, which is important for reading and writing.

ART SHOW & SALE & FUN by John J. Wycesany at Ward Street Gallery 536A Ward St., Nelson 354-1677 Works on display until Also on display a collection of CARNIVAL GLASS The Castlegar Sun Dear Ann Landers: | am in my late teens and very much concerned about my 12-year- old sister. I was looking for something in her desk and found a bunch of letters written to “Margie” from some man across the country on the on-line comput- er interactive network that my parents subscribe to. These let- ters are not merely suggestive. They are sexually explicit. This man is in college, and I'm sure he has no idea that my sister is 12 years old. It makes me sick to think that Margie's mind is being pol- luted by this scumbag. Should I tell my parents? If so, how? They know Margie communi- cates with several pen pals on this computer network through electronic mail, but I'm sure they have no idea that this sort of trash is being sent to her. My sister and I are close, and I wouldn't be comfortable con- fronting her. I am not able to sign my name or the city I live in. I need your help. — Wor- ried and Waiting for Guidance. Dear Worried: You don't need to be “close” to your sis- ter to tell her that you have become aware of her corre- spondence with an adult male and are worried about her. Explain that it is unhealthy. According to Chicago attor- ney Joan Hall, there is no fed- eral statute that prohibits sending pornography by com- puter. It's too bad the law hasn't caught up with technology.
