 We Were Raised on Country Sunshine ... And those are the ones on which seed was sown on good ground; and they ... bear fruit, some thirty, some sixty, and some a hundredfold. Nestled between the verdant Couteau Hills and Big Stone Lake lies a fertile valley that nurtures a wealth of produce: com, wheat, oats, alfalfa, milk, cheese, pork, beef, granite. The eyes of the inhabitants on a warm summer day rest peacefully on a herd of grazing cattle. A delighted little calf frolics beside his mother. The open sky arches a brilliant blue overhead with cream puff clouds to taunt the imagination. The speckled pleasure of a shade tree overhead invites one to stop and dwell on his own thoughts. On winter evenings, the expanse of pure white is broken by stark trees and fenceposts. Friendly yard- lights beside houses and barn sparkle a welcome to pass- ers-by. In the myriad simple pleasures of country sunshine, the students of MHS have their roots. About half of the stu- dents of MHS live on farms and ride the bus down the country roads to and from school each day. Many other families find their roots in service to the farming commu- nity. No child in downtown Milbank is too far from his rural roots but that he can find a stream to fish in or a rabbit to chase in the country sunshine. To these students with roots in the simple pleasures, the parents, the administrators, and faculty have sown the seeds of knowledge and enlightenment. The seeds have been watered with raindrops of courage, challenged by the fresh air of hope, and nourished by the warm pressence of country sunshine. This year, 1978, will see the harvest of a major sowing in Milbank. The new high school building will be ready for occupancy. On the eastern edge of our small city, its windows look out to the wide sky and the fence rows and fields of neighboring farms. The new facilities herald an expanded course of study. The law of the harvest demands that what one sows one shall also reap. The seeds of education have been sown and nurtured at MHS. The sunshine of harvest can- not be far away. And so with you, the students of MHS, we look to the harvest. As freshmen sprout upward, sophomores blos- som and bloom, and juniors ripen before harvest, we turn to the seniors for our harvest brought home in the secure warmth of country sunshine. Theme Page
