By Emily Mayer In finalizing the big Nov. 8, 1919, edition of The Havre Plaindealer, I will share some of the information found within the various society news throughout the newspaper. This is the part I enjoy the most, because there can be a lot of news in one or two short paragraphs. The dancing class for children under the supervision of Mrs. F. E. Carleton which meets Saturday afternoon at the High School gymnasium will hereafter meet from 1:30 to 3 on Saturday. Mrs. F. E. Carleton was the former Margaret Davenport of...
Traditionally, I shy away from anything that reeks of studied analysis of my psyche, but I was recently tricked into taking a three-question quiz because I thought it was just a funny thing. I mean, three little questions delivered by a comedian, how serious can that be? Then the person said noted father of psychoanalysis Sigmund Freud came up with this quiz. That’s unconfirmed. Either way, it’s simple. It’s three questions. How painful can that be? You have been forew...

There's never been a time when the stakes aren't high when the Montana Grizzlies and Montana State Bobcats get together.

Just look at what's...
After Thursday night's dual against Warner Pacific, the Montana State University-Northern Lights weren't going to be back in the Armory Gymnasium until February.

With the win, MSU-N improved to...

You know, Lord, November is a thankful time. A friend remembered when she was growing up how her grandma always set a huge table for her dear family. "J.L." recalled that Grandma would tell them that this was the perfect time to start cheerleading on paper. Grandma had a stack of paper and had each person write their name on the top, then all the slips of paper were dropped into a basket. After a most delicious meal, everyone drew a name from the basket. "J.L." remembered...
Gratitude is an attitude that comes out of the habit of giving thanks. All through the Psalms, no matter what circumstances David was facing, we read his outpouring of gratitude to God — “Give thanks to the Lord, for He is Good; his love endures forever.” As he encountered good times and bad times, David always turned back to the truth of God’s goodness. This attitude often carried him through the hardest of situations. For us, too, gratitude is a habit that is learned through practice. Just as we teach little childre...
Out our way, winter comes hard and fast. I do not envy those ranchers who have to go out in minus-40 degree blizzards during calving season to check the cows. Even with a good heater in the pick up, it is a miserable business. I kept Doc in his paddock with his girlfriend Babe all winter - and Charlie kept Jet and Freckles in theirs - while we both stayed inside as much as we could. We were just the cowboys and not the owners. Yet even so, winter on the Hi Line can be harsh...
