Is A Hidden Key Your Worst-Kept Secret? If you hide a spare key at your front door, where is it? Under the door mat, a flower pot or in the mailbox? Those are just the first places any prowler will check!!!! Or suppose you’ve got a better hiding place. Can anyone see you from the street? (How about that man sitting in his car? Was he really a door to door salesman9 Or a burglar "casing” your home?' Write down the license numbers of vehicles used by suspicious persons or jot down descriptions of suspicious people around your home. WHEN WERE YOUR LOCKS LAST CHANGED? When you moved in? Or will the former tenants key still open your door? And how about the tenant before him? Or his friends? Were they and are they now- all upright, honest people? Why take a chance when a locksmith can probably re-key all your locks for only a few dollars-and check on their security,too? Also, we will do a crime survey to determine the effectiveness of your home or business security. Call 669-8072 for appointment. Babies tend to toe out to some degree when they begin to walk and then gradually bring the front part of the feet in as they progress. “How the glow of Christmas is in the air, dismissing every care. May your holiday season be bright, always lit with candlelight.” WNC SHOPPING CENTER Black Mountain Hardware Kristy’s Chicken The Beauty Center Ward’s Drug Store Martin’s Shoe Store Ike’s International Drive In Sears Catalog Store Pegg’s Fashions WNC Coin Laundry & Dry Cleaners Black Mountain Hardware Dollar Store Deaths And Funerals J.

Learning where the pain can be felt and how it is felt and what to do about it can save almost twice as many lives.
