    Tim Leeds|Updated Nov 10, 2023

A release from GoFundMe said Mary Wagner, who retired in 2016 after 37 years of teaching math at Havre High, is in St. Vincent's Hospital in Billings as doctors try to treat what appears to be the rare immune system disorder Guillain-Barre Syndrome, which leads to nerve damage and muscle weakness.

  • Looking out my Backdoor: There is a hole in our lives

    Sondra Ashton|Updated Nov 10, 2023

    There aren’t many of us here on the rancho. Not all of our houses have their people. But the last several days, we who are here, me, Nancie, Julie, Lani and Ariel, Tom and Janet, frequently found ourselves running up against, no, not a wall, but a hole. This hole has a specific size and shape, exactly the size and shape of Leo. Leo helps all of us with gardening, planting, pruning, mowing, cutting, watering. But Leo is more than a gardener. He has helped all of us, at one t...

  • The Freedom to Vote Act secures Montana's democratic legacy and builds a path forward

    Updated Nov 10, 2023

    In Montana, our strength lies in our sense of community. As a child, I learned this at my kitchen table, where my father instilled the significance of our democracy and the values that every Montanan holds dear. These lessons drove me to a life of public service and allowed me to form lasting relationships with people throughout our state. Honesty, respect, and altruism are the foundation of Montana, and they bind us together. While individualism is vital to Montana, it does not define us. Instead, our democratic values stem...

  • Out Our Way: Head for the barn

    Updated Nov 10, 2023

    Hebrews 12:1 - "With perseverance let us run the race marked for us" Out our way, the long days can be a real test of strength and endurance. Most of you have heard my old joke - at least 10 times, no doubt - of how when Charlie asked me to come cowboy with him I said, "Sure! What can it hurt?" Boy, did I find out! Anyway, those of you who have worked cattle know it can be a long, hard and, sometimes, painful day. The heat of the sun all day, right in your face - even the...

  • Pastor's Corner: Have you checked your oil?

    Updated Nov 10, 2023

    This coming Sunday's gospel reading is the Parable of the Ten Bridesmaids found in Matthew 25:1-13. Here's the takeaway: What can one do to avoid being embarrassed like the five bridesmaids whose lamps ran out of oil, or - to use a modern metaphor - whose smartphone batteries were deader than disco? To fully understand the power of this parable, it's necessary to review how Matthew arranges Jesus' red-letter words of the two previous chapters: 23 and 24. Chapter 23 is full of...

J.: "My grandma's having a hard time trying to remember her cellphone number, but when her phone rings, even in her old age, she's smart enough to answer it." Chuckles. Taylor said, "My dad reminded us that we should remember our house number, P.O. Box number, our area code, probably what size shoe or shirt we wear as well as today's date." Sally laughed about that. Eddie added, "...

  • Lights look to end the season on a high note

    George Ferguson|Updated Nov 10, 2023

    The Montana State University-Northern football team started the season with a rousing win over Mayville State. Now, the Lights hope to end 2023 the same way. The Lights (0-9, 1-9) will close out the fall with a Frontier Conferencece road game Saturday at Rocky Mountain College.

  • From the Fringe... What a season, and now, we're just one game away

    George Ferguson|Updated Nov 10, 2023

    I just can't believe it, but it's true, we're one game away from the Brawl of the Wild. And yet, the games the Montana Grizzlies and Montana State Bobcats play this weekend could have a drastic impact on just how huge next Saturday's Cat-Griz game will be. Let's be honest, no-one thought that, on Nov. 11, the Montana Grizzlies would be playing at Portland State as the No. 3 team in the FCS, and ranked two spots ahead of the Bobcats in the national polls. But thanks to three...
