CAUGHT ON THE WING

Several men were standing
near the site of the high
school building admiring the
structure The roof was being
built and it was losing its
squatty appearance. "My, but
that is going to be an elegant
structure" remarked one, and
the other replied 'yes, one we
can be proud of. l am willing
to see new court house voted
on at the coming fall election,
and then Milbank will be an ideal
little city. The taxes are higher
to be sure, but the property is
that much more valuable. ]

SO many years without these i'm

building. one Of the finest in the
state and one that every citizen
may be very proud of. "
"And by the way" said one OF
the group. II don't believe there
is another school board in the
state that can get as good a
school house built for the same
amount of money as the Milbank
board of education is getting
this done for. I was talking
with man the other day who
spoke of the difference between
this building and the new coure
house to be built at Britton.
That building is smaller than
this and still costs more money.
The board deserves the thanks
of every citizen in Milbank for
the economical way they are
handling the proposition"
And this brings to mind the
remark the stroller heard a man
make the other day. The speak
