A fledgling program at Fort Belknap Indian Reservation’s Aaniiih Nakoda College got a boost from the state Thursday.

The Hill County commissioners signed off on a support letter Thursday for the Montana Silver Jackets. Commissioner Michael Wendland said the letter is to give the group a “blessing to look at the (Milk River) levee.” The Montana Silver Jackets is a interagency group that works together to reduce flood risk at the state level. Through this program the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, additional federal, state and sometimes local and tribal agencies provide a unified approach to add...
With three breweries and distillery, Havre's locally produced alcohol market has grown in a big way in Havre in the past five years.

All of them are planning to grow their businesses in the next year. An evolving trend, evolving mar...

As we enter the third year of the Trump administration, we’re fortunate to have a president who understands the vital role women entrepreneurs play in our economy. The U.S. Small Business Administration supports the president’s business advocacy by nurturing the entrepreneurial spirit and making sure small business has a voice at the table in Washington, DC. During Women’s History Month, we salute women entrepreneurs who take a risk in pursuit of their passions and who see setbacks as steps towards something bigger and bette...
I feel like my whole education and employment history has come together today to bring you this column which celebrates liberal arts in the news. To start this list off, we’ll look at the headline I read titled “Punctuation Marks.” Grammar and punctuation are like candy to word nerds. Then I saw that the article was from Architectural Digest and I was all “Ooooooh, I do wish to see the myriad ways high-brow architects incorporated the comma into their buildings. Did they us...
At the Department of Public Health and Human Services, we are committed to providing direct services to Montanans that they rely on for their health and livelihoods. That’s why it’s disappointing to see Reps. Matt Regier and Carl Glimm imply in their March 19 editorial, “Republicans are working to trim fat from state agencies,” that vacant DPHHS FTEs must not be necessary. And it’s especially disappointing because the positions that have been left open for over a year are a direct result of managing complex budgetary pressure...

SIX HAVRE BOYS HAVE LANDED IN NEW YORK Sons of Well Known Citizens are Returning From Service Abroad John M. Kay, the local undertaker, has received word that his son John M. Jr., has landed in New York and with him are five other Havre boys returning from service overseas. The other boys are: Claude Darnell, son of Andy Darnell; John Diamond, son of R. C.

A year ago, it was frosty second-half shooting against Michigan that did in the Montana Grizzlies in the first round of the NCAA tournament. One year later, it was the first half. In a rematch with the No. 2 seeded Wolverines in the opening round of the 2019 NCAA tournament Thursday night in Des Moines, Iowa, 15th-seeded Montana made just one of its first nine shots and shot just 22 percent in the opening 20 minutes in a 74-55 loss inside the Wells Fargo Arena. It was the...
After months of cold, warm temperatures finally broke through in Havre over the last couple weeks and that's fitting because the Montana State University-Northern football team will hit the field for the start of spring ball next week. It will be the second set of spring practices under head coach Andrew Rolin and the Lights head coach is looking forward to seeing some growth. "We had a really good nine weeks of winter conditioning," Rolin said ahead of Monday's first practice...

You know, Lord, I’ll bet all of us pretty well remember when we were little kids our mama would sneak into our bedroom to check to see if we were asleep, or for sure, to check in on us when we were sick. That’s what parents do, right? Sometimes Ma or Pa would sit near us to pray for us, joining You, Lord, as they knew that You also were watching over us while we slept. An auntie shared that sometimes while in the act of checking on her little ones, she felt like she was bathing herself in the grace and wonder of Your lov...
Out our way, a common joke was the bumper sticker put out a few years ago for Montana that said, “There’s Nothing Here.” While supporting my ministry in Havre I worked the 4 a.m. to 1 p.m. shift at Walmart, and it was always fun to hear tourists talking with each other about the state and especially the Hi-Line. Many could hardly wait to get to the Rockies and west of the divide where there was “something to see.” We, who know the area — who have spent time in the Bear Paws, Beaver Creek, and on some of less traveled roads in...
Many of the ideas and Scriptures used in this article are from the book “Heaven” by Randy Alcorn. As we press on in our study of Heaven we should remember that Paul said that he desired to depart and be with Christ. That notion is foreign to many of us who say that we would miss our friends and family here on earth. However, if we really understood more of our future with Jesus we would be anxious to join Him after our time on earth concludes. It may be hard for some of us to say that we desire to depart and be with Chr...
