HEALTH SNUFFED OUT BY

TOBACCO-RELATED ILLNESS?


 I. .

 -~
'. ,'


 A Florida jury has found that Tobacco companies engaged in extreme and
 outrageous conduct in the sale and marketing of cigarettes. Now, the
 Florida Supreme Court has held that the tobacco companies are liable for
 their conduct and individuals suffering from smoking related illnesses
 may pursue claims for compensatory and punitive damages.
 If you or a loved one developed a smoking related illness
between 1990 and 2000, call your Florida Consumer Justice Attorneys
 for a free consultation.

 CONSOLIDATION:

 TRADITIONS

 BECOME HISTORY


 No more high school in
 Blountstown
 No more high school in Altha
 (New high school will not be located
 in Blountstown or Altha. Mrs. Neves
has stated somewhere near Clarksville
on Highway 20...she has said in school
board meetings that it WILL NOT be
 located in either city's town limits.

 No more red and white
 "Tiger Pride"
 No more purple and gold
 "Wildcats Spirit"
 (A new school brings new mascots,
 new colors)


 Half the kids playing
 half the sports
 (Closing two high schools to open one
 eliminates many sports opportunities
 for many kids...after all, only 5 kids
 can play basketball at once!)

 Blountstown Football gone
 SLady Wildcat Volleyball gone
 (A new school means a new school
name, new school mascot, and years of
championships and traditions lost)

Business suffers in Blountstown
 Business suffers in Altha
 (A new school miles away from both
 cities will cause business in both
 towns to LOSE MONEY!!!


 CONSOLIDATION WILL
 BRING CHANGE
 to BLOUNTSTOWN and
 ALTHA...
 JUST NOT THE GOOD KIND


STOP


Consolidation!

 Save YOUR

Community School!
