We address this letter to all people of faith and of good will in our state of Montana. We are at a crucial time in our nation’s history, as well as that of our state, where racial, political and religious divisions have regrettably deepened. People on all sides have spent so much time fanning the flames of division that the higher callings of our religious traditions have been neglected. While we cannot speak for everyone from the various contexts of our siblings in faith, we also cannot remain silent. So we call out to y...
When I was a wee small human, among my prized family possessions were an impressive 6-inch thick Webster’s dictionary and the full, multi-volume faux-leather bound Encyclopedia Britannica. One day, after a second-grade class lesson on home safety, I pulled all these books out and stacked them into manageable piles, so that I could determine how many trips it would take me to save all that information from a fire. Six. It would’ve taken six trips. Still, rescuing those boo...

2 Corinthians 5:17-18 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation. Titus 3:5-6 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior. We are new...
Out our way, cattle trails tend to be pretty obvious and even a beginner like me got to become somewhat familiar with them. I knew where I was and where I was going most of the time on those familiar old trails. But sometimes those old familiar trails were no longer the right ones. When the reservoir and the creek overflows during the spring run off, a new trail has to be found. Now Charley, who had ridden the Tiger Ridge area for years, didn’t need a map to know where he was and where he was going even when the old trails w...
Horses were the means of transportation 80 years ago. A family with four girls had a big white horse named Daisy. These little girls loved all of their farm animals but especially Daisy, as she was their means to get to their rural school, 3 ½ miles north of their home. Picture them, youngest to oldest, astride Daisy. Occasionally baby sister Donna got to visit school, too, rider number one on Daisy’s back. Prairie scene, besides various grasses, flowers, birds, it might include coyotes, gophers, badgers, skunks, maybe ev...
Our memories are a loving thing, they last the longest day!. They can’t be spent or even lent, nor ever snatched away. Jesus, take care of our dear one and love her/him as we do. Because she/he was everything, so loving, kind and true. Dear one, you took my joy with you, the happiest hours of all. The tears I’ve shed since I lost you, continue now to fall. Our lives go on without you, dear, but nothing is the same. We have to hide our broken heart when someone speaks your name. Those special years will not return when we were...
Emily Mayer The Hill County Democrat had several stories throughout January 1920 regarding some statistics from the previous year, many of which would have lasting impacts for decades to come. The meteorological report for 1919 was dismal. In the 40 years since records had been kept in this area, starting in 1879 at the weather station at Fort Assinniboine, it was the driest one on record. Autumn 1919 was the coldest on record. The mean temperature was 42.4 degrees, 10 degrees above normal. The last killing frost was May 14,...

It has been a pretty good upward rise for the Havre High boys basketball when it comes to Northeast A conference play.

Now, Havre is facing off against another Northeast A opponent in the Sidney Eagles Saturday at 4 p.m. in the Havre High Gymnasium. The game versus the Eagles carries some weight with it, too, as...
Montana State University-Northern head coach Shawn Huse said recently, his team just needed some consistency, and some positive momentum. The Lights certainly may have checked that box Thursday night. After beating Montana Tech last Saturday in Havre, the Lights made it two Frontier Conference wins in a row for the first time this season when they edged the Montana Western Bulldogs 59-54 Thursday night in Dillon. The win pushed Northern to 4-7 in conference ahead of three...
Lights beat Embry-Riddle on the mat, but the dual featured a bizarre ending Montana State University-Northern wrestling fans waited a long time to see the Lights wrestle at home again. But, in their first chance to see the Lights since November, they didn't get a full dual. In one of those, "did that really happen" moments, the head coach of the Embry-Riddle University Eagles pulled his team together and decided to exit the dual with four matches left in the night. The...

With a combination of young and hungry grapplers to experienced, hardware-seeking veterans, the Blue Pony matmen have a lot of plans to end the season on a good note. Havre's first stop in the postseason is the Eastern A Divisional Tournament in Lewistown Saturday. After some ups and downs in the regular season, the Ponies will have even more intense...
There are moments when all seems lost, when it looks like the lowest point has been reached and it feels almost impossible to keep fighting. In sports, every team can have those tough times, where the strength to keep going seems to have run out. But, as they say, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, and when it comes to area girls basketball, there have been plenty of instances where teams have risen from the ashes. Perhaps no team better exemplifies that then the...
