This is especially true with open range cattle that populate the Beaver Creek area for a time each year. I was taking "Doc" to the Dumas homestead up in the Bear Paws which borders the Beaver Creek and the Rocky Boy's Indian/Chippewa Cree reservation. Various crews were working cattle and getting them out of the back...
OK, here is the deal. This Sunday provides us with options for our Sunday readings.

You know, Lord, the melody of that old hymn, "For The Beauty Of The Earth," brought to mind "Care of the Earth" and "Stewardship" and Psalms 24:1: "The earth is the Lord's and everything in it." If we go to checking out the hymn itself, which was written by Folliott S, Pierpoint (1835-1917), one finds that there are two additional verses seldom printed in any hymnals - probably no wonder, as which song leader ever leads to sing all four - or for that matter, all seven verses...

by Emily Mayer Recently, I had the privilege of addressing Mrs. Lindsey Ratliff’s local history students. What a great bunch of future leaders! I was present to let the class know of job opportunities at the Clack Museum and Buffalo Jump, but that quickly turned into a great question and answer session about our rich local history. One student asked how I became a historian, and the best answer I could give her — or anyone else — is that it’s a calling. Much like those in the medical field or clergy will tell you, one gets an...
