Advocates say it's high time Fresno Reservoir be recognized and authorized as what it already is - a recreational body of water and fishery as well as an irrigation reservoir. This year's drought has diminished pool levels of the reservoir and, consequently, revived conversation about why, after decades of recreational and angler use, Fresno is still only federally recognized as an irrigation storage reservoir. Carolyn Anderson, a former member of the Fresno Chapter of...

Northern Montana Hospital officials would like people to know that telemarketers who appear to be calling from the hospital do not represent Northern Montana Hospital. Marketing and Public Relations Coordinator Julianne LaSmith said Havreites have told her that Northern Montana Hospital’s phone number is connected to a telemarketing scam. “We don’t want people to think it’s us calling. Those phone calls are not coming from our premises,” she said. LaSmith said the telemarketers have been able to get ahold of two of the hospi...
Nearly a year after the project started, the company with which Havre contracted to rehabilitate the Bullhook storm drainage creek under the city still hasn't finished the job, and told the company from which it was renting fencing to take it back to Billings, but the mayor of Havre said he is hopeful Kincaid Civll Construction will still be back to finish the job. "Kinkaid ordered them to come and get the fences they had rented," Havre Deputy Director of Public Works Jeff...

From ASSE International Student Exchange program ASSE International Student Exchange Programs, in cooperation with local high schools, is looking for local families to host boys and girls between the ages of 15 to 18 from a variety of countries: Norway, Denmark, Spain, Italy, Japan, to name a few.

Host families often welcome these students into their family, not as a guest, but...
By Emily Mayer A couple of weeks ago I had included a bizarre article about wife swapping. The parties involved refused to speak to local newspapers, but the mother of one of the women thought it appropriate to speak to the St. Paul Dispatch. A copy of that article was printed in the July 21, 1917 issue of The Havre Plaindealer: ST. PAUL PAPER AIRS TURCOTTE-JORDON CASE Underneath a double-column half-tone showing the women in the case draped artistically over the shoulders of their new husbands, and each woman resting a hand...
Congress is in crisis, and some members of the U.S. Senate suggest fundamental changes that would forever alter the future of that esteemed body. In one dramatic proposal, Montana’s own Sen. Steve Daines has proposed getting rid of the historic Senate filibuster rule: “These are archaic rules from the past that are creating, are going to create barriers for the Senate to act on behalf of the American people. It is time to blow up the filibuster. ... I was pleased to see the president tweet that out,” Daines said July 18. S...
Generations of Montanans have cultivated the land and passed family farms and ranches down to their children. Their work has built Montana’s economy and preserved a way of life that still defines our state today. But with the ground cracking underneath us, we are reminded of how fragile this way of life is. As our number one economic driver, Montana agriculture, has supported our economy through seasons of plenty and seasons of drought, including physical drought and unseasonable rains. In Montana we’ve seen them both and...
Yesterday morning, I thought about options available when solving problems related to eldercare. The more I thought about my reasons for becoming a mediator, the more I thought that the ideas converge. As I see it, there are three doors to resolving a problem. “Door number one” is people solving problems related to seniors and healthcare with the skills that life has taught them. Some people bully/threaten their way into a solution. Some people take on a martyr status and some people give up in frustration. Some people can...
Data analysts say, if you torture the numbers long enough, they’ll tell you anything. I just read that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has compiled the statistics and crunched the numbers, and the official data says more people in the U.S. get killed by cows every year than get killed by sharks. In averages taken from between 2001 and 2013, cows killed 20 people per year and sharks killed only one person per year. In fact, alligators and bears each averaged o...

"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." After three hard-fought battles with cancer Jesus called Larry home July 26, 2017. In Larry style, he waited until his family was together for one last sleepover before taking his last breath. Larry was the definition of a kind, soft-spirited soul. He was born in Havre, Montana, Dec. 23, 1951, to Mildred and Kenneth Scharfe. Following graduation from Havre High, he spent two years at Montana... Full story

An outlandish question perhaps. Why even ask such a thing? The answer is obviously “No.” Nevertheless, I’m asking it. And the reason that I am asking it is that there are many church summer camps that our youth are attending. In that environment where five to six days are dedicated to worshipping and hearing from God, our youth are hearing from God. When they come home from these camps, how do we respond to what God is doing in their lives? The Apostle Paul writes to a young pastor, Timothy, these words found in the Bible...
Here are some emergency numbers, Lord; no operator assistance is necessary. They’re all direct dial. All lines are open to Heaven 24 hours a day! (Note: feed your faith and your doubt will starve to death!) “When in sorrow, call John 14. When folks fail you, call Psalm 27. To be fruitful, call John 15. When you’ve sinned call Psalm 51. When you are worried, call Matthew 6:19-34. When you sense you are in danger, call Psalm 91. When God seems far away, call Psalm 139. When your faith needs stirring, call Hebrews 11. When you g...
Out our way, folks who work with horses know every horse has two sides and, in a sense, two brains. When I was teaching Goliath to yield by pulling his head around to touch his right side, I also had to do the same exercise with his left. In working on his leads I had to ride him clockwise and and later ride him counterclockwise, for horses need to be trained on both sides. So every exercise on one side of the horse has a flip side - a training for the other side. I was...
Anyone who knows me, knows that I love football. It's my favorite sport, heck, it's one of my favorite things. But as much as I love the game, I know that it needs to change. And it needs to change now. It's no secret that over the last few years, we have started to realize just how dangerous football can be. The discovery of CTE, or chronic traumatic encephalopathy, and its prevalence in football players has been disturbing to say the least and a study published earlier this...
There's no debating that, in football, offensive linemen are undervalued at times. But don't tell that to the quarterbacks they protect, and the running backs they block for. In the Frontier Conference, offensive linemen are as essential as anywhere else in football. In recent years, the league has produced some of the most dominant running backs in the NAIA, and a big reason for that is, the talent in front of them. And there's plenty of talented offensive linemen coming...
