And that’s just what burglars like. While nothing can make a home completely safe, a few extra steps can make things difficult for the burglar. For instance, nothing makes a burglar's work easier than an open or unlocked garage door. . * Check the identification of any unkown person before admitting him or her into your home. More titan one thief has “ cased” a house for a break-in later on by pretending to collect for a worthwhile cause or to deliver packages ♦Arrange for a neighbor to collect Christmas cards and other mail if you plan to be out of town during the holiday season. •Lock your home and garage Community Calendar Dec. 8 - Christmas Tea, 2:30 p.m..

Suggestions for securing your home while you arc away include: •Automatic garage door openers, not only convenient on cold winter nights but effective security devices. •Cane bolts made of steel should be .placed on. both .edges of the garage door so that they cannot be pulled back to one side to allow a forced entry. •Padlocks, if used should have the following features: A heel-and- toe locking mechanism; a five-pin tumbler, a lock that must be closed before the key can be removed; a shackle made of hardened steel at least 9/23 inch thick. •Locks should be used on items in the garage such as food freezers, tool boxes, bicycles and lawn mowers if the garage door cannot be locked •Dead-bolt locks should be in stalled on doors connecting the garage with the house. •Anti-slide mechanisms or key- operated devices should be used to secure garage windows. •Covers should be placed over garage windows to keep persons from seeing inside. An empty garage signals a thief that no one is home. CHRISTMAS NEWS!

BTGS MUSICIANS GET READY FOR DECEMBER 45TH The Big Timber Grade School Christmas musical will be per formed for the general public on Thursday, December 15 at 2:00 pun. and 8:00 pim. There will be no charge for admissioa The play, an annual production, is called Three Wee Kings. It is an adaptation of thewclHoved story of the Magi who followed the star to find the King This musical fantasy brings to gether all the human and animal characters (plus a few heretofore unknown characters) from the Christmas story: kings, shepherds, angels, camels, goats, donkeys, lambs, lions, and even talking stars. As the story unfolds, each group of characters discusses who is to be the King wondering if one from their group will be chosea The journey of the kings and the animals ends at the manger, where the angels show them all that the King is a human baby who bears the titles “ King of kings’’, \Bright and Morn ing Star’’, \Good Shepherd\ “ Lion of Judah\ and \ Lamb of God\. This year’s production is truly a school play, with nearly all of the students and stafT involved in some way. As a part of a learning unit on music drama, the eighth grade music class is doing a large portion of the work backstage, the lighting and scenery, publicity, and makeup The idea of using older students as stage hands is new this year and has been working out very well for all involved, music teacher Jim Brat vold said. “ This play has something for everyone - drama, humor, wit, wis dom, allegory, and music both old and nc\v - all in a package designed to showcase the talents of the actors in kindergarten through fourth grade.
