The North Central Shrine Club a few weeks ago gave people a chance to bash a car and help a good cause as part of a Brawl of the Wild tailgate party. The Shriners painted a van, half in University of Montana Grizzly colors and half in Montana State University Bobcat colors, and Nov. 23 - the day of the annual Cat-Griz game - people paid to bash the car on the side of the team they were not supporting. Shriner Kelly Brandon said the event is a usual Shriner fundraiser, and is a...

The last two seasons, the Montana State University-Northern Skylights have experienced a lot of heartache during Frontier Conference play. And yet, they weren't about to let the 2019-2020 Frontier season start the same way. Thursday night in the Armory Gymnasium, the No. 14 Skylights opened the new Frontier slate with a 58-51 win over defending NAIA and Frontier champion Montana Western. And while it's just one win, it was obvious, the victory meant a lot. "It's exciting,...
In the rivalry between the Montana State University-Northern Lights and Montana Western Bulldogs, it's rare that a game doesn't go down to the wire. So it should have been to no one's surprise that the 2019-2020 Frontier Conference opener between the Lights and Dawgs was no different. Thursday night in the Armory Gymnasium, the No. 17 Lights held off a charging Western team in a 67-65 nail biter that saw Northern lead big midway through both the first and second halves, only...
The Havre High wrestling team hits the mat once again. This year, the cycle continues, with the team bringing in some new faces, returning familiar ones and, as always, graduating some, too. But, the constant cycle of new wrestlers has never hindered the Blue Ponies much. Many of the Havre wrestlers throughout Pony history have made their mark on Class A. Now, the legacy will look to continue, but with lower numbers. Under second-year head coach Beau LaSalle, the Ponies will...
The Montana Grizzlies haven't been here in four years. The Montana State Bobcats haven't been here in 365 days. And while the two bitter rivals FCS playoff time lines are a little different, it doesn't change the fact that Saturday is a big, big day for NCAA football in the Treasure State. The No. 5 Bobcats (9-3), after a week off, host 25th-ranked Albany in an FCS second-round game Saturday in Bozeman. On the other side of the Divide, the No. 6 Grizzlies play un-ranked...

By Emily Mayer Because The Havre Plaindealer’s issues abruptly ended November 8, 1919, and won’t resume until March of 1920, the Hill County Democrat will be used for the next few months. At one time, coal was king in Montana, including Havre. Hill County had several coal mines, and it was coal that presumably brought my great-grandfather, Frank Bunton, to the area as he owned a coal mine somewhere in Hill County. He later became a homesteader near Simpson. One hundred years ago, several mine workers were striking thr...
Out our way, God has many ways to teach those willing to learn. And He uses a great variety of teachers. Sometimes it is in reading the inspired scriptures, sometimes it is to be discovered in an inspiring sermon by a gifted preacher; sometimes it is in the sage advice of a good friend - and sometimes God speaks and teaches us without words. No one gets through life without trials and tears - and as many of you know, I have faced a great many in the past few years. The Book...
You know, Lord, sometimes we just seem to get stressed out, and doesn't please You, right? "Marsha" shared how she stays on top of things and is relaxed amid the holiday rush. She called them the "Four Big C's" and recommended them for a happier holiday season. Here's how she Capitalizes on the Big C's. CHRISTMAS CARDS: Write short notes in your cards in late November - or at least during the first week in December. Convey caring as you write, communicating that good feeling t...
It’s not the Christmas season. Liturgically speaking, anyway. For much of the Western Christian tradition, the beginning of December marked the beginning of the season of Advent. As my “high church” minded friends are inclined to remind with meme after meme this time of year, Christmas doesn’t begin until Dec. 25 and “Christmas season” continues on until Jan. 6. Now, admittedly, being “LC” (liturgically correct) will drive some bonkers. While I question the validity of a “War on Christmas,” I feel like I have witnessed an i...
This journey’s hard, we’re struggling on since our dear one has left. To come to terms with this life change — it’s hard, we do our best. To suffer is just part of life; it helps build strength and hope; Plus character and endurance, it helps us all to cope. And we who grieve, we carry on and trust our Lord above. Though we’re tearful, we know God cares and sends us down His love. Each one of us handles our grief in our own unique way. We share with friends — this common ground, that helps us through our day. When we cou...
