When it comes to coaching in the Frontier Conference, things can go a variety of ways. Oftentimes, the league can be a stepping stone to jobs up the ladder, and that was certainly the case this past year. Other times, coaches can find a home and spend their entire careers there, and the Frontier has those, too. No matter the direction, the coaching landscape certainly changed in the Frontier after the 2015 season, as both Rocky Mountain College (Brian Armstrong) and...

If you dropped off a payment or came in the office looking for an end roll, I was probably the one who assisted you. Over the years, I got to know by name many of our regular customers especially those who came in monthly to pay for their Havre Daily News...
Back in the dark ages when I was young and the internet wasn’t even a twinkle in Al Gore’s eye, my contemporaries and I would imagine what it would be like to read people’s minds. We were convinced it would be awesome to the nth power, even though many smart people who studied human behavior — like psychologists, sociologists, secret service interrogators and moms — all said that knowing what people are truly thinking is really not a good thing. We dismissed their warnings....
Editor, Please help me thank our local law enforcement on Sept. 17 — National Tell a Police Officer Thank You Day. The initiative has been started by the Whole Truth Project and Wives Behind the Badge, an organization with a mission to promote a pro-police message every year on the third Saturday of September, just like Havre's Festival Days.

I want to introduce myself, and my goals, to the readers of the Havre Daily News. Some of you already know me. My name is Tim Leeds, a former reporter and assistant editor at the Havre Daily, and I took over as the head of the news department Aug. 5.

His dedication and hard work...

Windy Boy, 62, a Cree, is not just a spectator, he is a longtime grass dancer, drummer and singer. To him it is more than an activity or entertainment. "It's, it's everything, almost," he said. "It's our life. It helps us. When we dance it...

Jeremiah 33:2-3 This is what the Lord says, he who made the earth, the Lord who formed it and established it-the Lord is his name: Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know. Change is a difficult concept for many of us to embrace. God changes not. The rest of us seem to be confronted with change fairly often in our lives. With the new school year approaching many kids will begin this fall with a new teacher in a new classroom. They will be learning new concepts and possibly ma...
Mark 7:1-13 Out our way, nearly every cowboy carries a rope on his saddle. Those who follow this column know I do, and it has come in handy ... especially the time I left my boot in the mud and had to have Goliath help me haul it out. Tying my rope to the boot, taking a few turns around the horn, and then backing up "old Doc" in my stocking feet while my pard Charlie watched and laughed, I got that boot out and eventually back on. But cowboys carry ropes for other reasons...
