By Emily Mayer The people of Hill County were certainly proud this week 100 years ago. The Hill County Courthouse was complete and the various offices were making their new space home. The Hill County Democrat ran the following column in its Feb. 5, 1916 issue. It is rather lengthy, but I think readers of this column will enjoy reading what the Democrat had to say: New Court House The Best Court House in the State It was mingled feelings of pleasure and pride that we strolled...
Pamville News editors have meticulously scoured world news sources to bring readers highlights of importance. The nerds of India Yahoo News reported this week that Tata Motors Ltd., a car manufacturer in India, will be changing the name of its new Zica car before it is sold to the public because the name sounds like the new Zika virus that is gearing up to be the new pandemic to sweep the world, wreak havoc and endanger lives. Even corporations like to make healthy choices....
Ai-yi-yi, but I had a difficult day. My theory is that misery is contagious. My neighbor Ted from Edmonton was griping about the rock bottom value of the Canadian dollar, which has been on a steady decline for weeks. Frank on the other side of my door kept up a steady whine (steady decline-steady whine —t hat’s called internal rhyme) about the plunging value of his investments. Both of them moaned about the rising cost of living in Mazatlan. I stood in my doorway and lis...
Laurel — The tiny town of Turner has a fighting spirit. Turner has seen a dramatic loss in population in recent years. Some small, rural towns have died out, but don’t count Turner out. The residents of this northern Blaine County community are fighting to stay alive. They have vibrant support for their high school basketball team as shown in a Havre Daily News story Wednesday. In the past, when the market wouldn’t support a privately owned grocery store, the community opened up a non-profit store. It’s a town full of spir...

The Montana State University-Northern Skylights have been in the position they were in Thursday night several times this season: needing to win a game after a tough loss their last time out. But, on the road in the Frontier Conference, that task isn’t easy to accomplish. And that’s what makes No. 20 Northern’s 77-55 win over the Montana Tech Orediggers Thursday night in Butte so impressive. From beginning to end, Northern was spectacular on both ends of the floor, and, along...

HHS was victorious in the first go-around 37-33. The Ponies, who will be playing on...

Tonight, the No. 2 Lights begin a three-dual stretch to finish the regular season when they take on the Embry-Riddle Eagles in a special dual at the Havre High gymnasium. Th...
For years, the Havre High wrestling team has dominated in divisional wrestling tournaments. But, that tournament was the Central A divisional, and now, the Blue Ponies will be competing in the Eastern A Divisional, which is something altogether different. The Eastern A tournament, which will be hosted by Havre inside the HHS gymnasium Saturday starting at 9 a.m., is essentially a combination of the old Eastern A and Central A divisional tournaments. Instead of having five or s...
The Havre High girls basketball team might not have put its best foot forward against the Conrad Cowgirls Thursday night inside the HHS gymnasium. But, when you win, you never have to complain and the Blue Ponies shouldn't after their triumph over the Cowgirls. For the second straight meeting between the interclass opponents, the Havre defense dominated. And even though the offense wasn't necessarily hitting on all cylinders, the Ponies were good enough to win their ninth...
