Editor, It was disappointing to read in the Feb. 3 edition of Havre Daily News of the commissioners limiting the processes for public and county officials to participate and comment on county business. Though it is understandable that some comments and interactions can be counterproductive, cutting the opportunities across the board is not an effective way to manage the problem. Had the published agenda for the commissioners Feb. 2, business meeting included an item to change public and officials opportunity to participate...
The Boy Scouts of America was founded Feb. 8, 1910, thus in 2023 we are celebrating 113 years. I would like to take this time to say thank you to all who have supported the various BSA programs over the past year. There have been many individuals, families, businesses, organizations in Havre and along the Hi-Line that have assisted this past year and without all of your support we could not survive. I would specifically like to thank First Lutheran Church, St. Jude Thaddeus Catholic Church and Community Alliance Church:...
Valentine’s Day is one of the oddest holidays of the year. I can remember back in grade school being required to fill out little Valentine’s cards for all my classmates and thinking that this was one of the stupidest, most awkward things I ever had to do. I asked my mom when I was in first grade why I had to give cards to all the kids, including the kids I didn’t know, the ones who were mean and the ones I had no thoughts on at all. Navigating social norms is difficult enoug...
Some say confession is good for the soul, and growing up Catholic, I’m a believer. Here is something I seldom talk about. First, though, the catalyst. For the past week, on my sunrise walk with Lola, I’ve been singing. Here is what you need to understand. I don’t sing. Ever. I love music. Songs weave through my days, mostly in my head. Silently. I don’t allow the songs to exit my mouth. Unlike bad words which squeak through frequently and often appropriately. My fear of bein...

Out our way, I have to confess as a greenhorn cowhand, the grazing land all looks pretty much alike. I ride up over one ridge or cross one arroyo and it looks the same on the other side. No wonder I got lost so often - for I had not yet developed "trail eyes" - the ability to see the sign that pointed me in the direction I needed to go. One trick seasoned wranglers have sought to teach me in developing "trail eyes" was simply to look behind every few hundred yards and check...
Those who say, "I love God," and hate their brothers or sisters, are liars; for those who do not love a brother or sister whom they have seen, cannot love God whom they have not seen (1 John 4:20 NRSV). Why do people hate each other? God is love, that is what scripture tells us (1 John 4:8). This world that God created, He created it out of love. God then made man and He also did this out of love. God created this large universe and all of His creation out of love. Yet, there...
You know, Lord, sometimes one sees Love being shared. One day, while waiting for an appointment, an older lady was checking out, a gentleman came in, greeted the guy at the desk, who greeted him, "Hey, Joe - I'll be just a moment." The manager asked the older lady if he should help her out to her car. Joe spoke up, "It's icy out there. My grandson said to be careful, so I'll walk her out, I know where the ice is." The lady prepared to go, took Joe's arm, and whispered, "He's...
