There's no doubt that Montana State University-Northern Lights like playing in the friendly confines of the Armory Gymnasium. In fact, the Lights have lost just once there all season long. And they're hoping that trend continues when they host two of the Frontier Conference's best this weekend, starting tonight when the Lights (4-4, 14-6) take on No. 8 Lewis-Clark State (6-2, 17-3) and Saturday night when they host the No. 16 UM-Western Bulldogs (5-3, 15-4). Both games tip at...

By Emily Mayer The Great War and its impacts on life in the United States was featured in The Havre Plaindealer’s January 26, 1918 edition.

Shodair Children’s Hospital deserves great thanks and praise for the work it has been doing for more than a century — and continues to do — caring for children in Montana.

The hospital began in 1896 in Helana as an orphanage, primarily taking in parentless children brought from the east to the west on “orphan trains.” As time changed and more and more children were plac...
Much to my surprise, a North 40 column from a few weeks ago created a confused hullabaloo among a few readers who were concerned that President Donald Trump actually might be, as I suggested, authorizing a wall of such grand proportions between the U.S. and Canada that the wall would be able to keep the cold northerly winds of Canada from crossing the border into the U.S. Yes, I was writing about a weather-stopping wall. Let me assure you, dear readers, that this notion is...

After a frigid blast of winter air froze the Hi-Line from Christmas through the first part of January, a blast of spring-like warmth settled in, letting people switch from winter parkas to light jackets in a matter of days.

Psalm 112:1-3 Praise the Lord. Blessed is the man who fears the Lord, who finds great delight in His commands. His children will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed. Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever. Last week I said that we would look at whether or not it is OK for believers to have wealth and riches. Perhaps an additional insight into this question is whether or not it is possible for wealth and riches to have possession of a believer. The answer to...
You know, Lord, friends were planning their dream vacation. They showed brochures and flyers for some breathtaking and astonishing places they wished to visit, some even out of the USA! They were busy checking and planning their schedules, choosing a date and then the next step for them was going to purchase the tickets. They had fascinating plans. Although some of us might not have plans for a dream vacation here on earth, we most certainly have something wonderful to look forward to, even greater than our friends’ plans; th...

I served rural, suburban and urban congregations of various sizes. I have driven across the...

The last time that the Havre High boys basketball team won a game, it was in December against Malta. And this weekend, with the Mustangs on tap, it could be the perfect time for the Blue Ponies to get back into the win column.

Havre will then play Malta Saturday at 4 p.m. "I think we will have some confidence after...
The Montana State University-Northern Skylights are going through a rough stretch right now, as rough as they've had it in some time. And things got even tougher when Northern found out earlier this week it will be without star senior Jacy Thompson for the remainder of the season. And yet, two things the Skylights know for sure: 1' They'll keep fighting, and 2' Their opponents will have no sympathy. Both of those factors will be in play tonight when Northern (1-7, 9-10) hosts...
