  • MSU-N Game Day: The 22: An Unconvential QB

    Chris Peterson|Updated Nov 10, 2018

    Tommy Wilson is not a conventional quarterback and his college football career has been anything but ordinary. Yet, as it winds down this weekend, he wouldn't have it any other way. "I think I have always done things a little differently," Wilson said. "It has been different going through three different schools and trying to build a foundation. Just to keep making that jump was a transition for me, but it has been eventful and I have enjoyed every bit of it. I have enjoyed...

  • Skylights face NCAA DII Minot State in home debut

    George Ferguson|Updated Nov 9, 2018

    Three games into a very young season, the Montana State University-Northern Skylights, who are a young team themselves, are a perfect 3-0. And while that won't change this weekend, things are about to get much tougher for Northern. In a rare Sunday matinee, the Skylights will make their home debut when they host NCAA Division II Minot State University inside the Armory Gymnasium. The game is an exhibition game for Northern, so it won't count toward the Skylight's record. But,...

  • Letters to the Editor - CFPB should keep common-sense lending rule

    Updated Nov 9, 2018

    Editor, The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s acting Director Mick Mulvaney and deputy director Brian Johnson are at it again. When Mulvaney was in Congress he represented one of the largest payday lenders in the country and took in $62,000 in campaign contributions from them. It makes sense that as acting director he would see to their best interests and not those of the consumers the agency was created to protect. In 2017, the consumer bureau issued a rule to protect Americans from predatory payday loans by r...

  • Zen and the art of winter preparedness

    Pam Burke|Updated Nov 9, 2018

    Just like I prepared our property for winter by clearing the driveway verge of vegetation that would cause drifting and other problems when the snow and cold hit, my mental and emotional preparedness for winter weather was impeccable this fall. By mid-September I had myself in an admirably zen-like mental state about winter — not capital-letter Zen as in of the school of Mahayana Buddhism, but lower-case zen in the Western sense of being in the moment, accepting, open-hearted...

  • Clearing up some confusion

    Tim Leeds|Updated Nov 9, 2018

    Confusion seems to have arisen in the area about a possible connection between The Havre Daily News and the website The Havre Herald. The answer about the connection is simple: There is none. Three former employees of the Havre Daily News, who had resigned their positions over the last 27 months, started new endeavors in Havre. In or about May of this year, John Kelleher, Teresa Getten and Paul Dragu started the website The Havre Herald and its associated Facebook page and started posting stories and photos. Over the past...

  • Young and Faithful

    Updated Nov 9, 2018

    Imagine for a moment a young person who you know personally. What would they find when they walk into your congregation? Is the worship time and location available and accurate? Is the entrance to the sanctuary easy to navigate? Is there someone there to greet them? If they have a history with the church, be careful of well-intentioned but off-putting greetings such as, “It’s been so long since we’ve seen you.” Young adults often are still trying to establish stable careers. Will they feel pressure to donate to the church as...

  • Hello, God. It's me, Mara

    Updated Nov 9, 2018

    You know, Lord, as we’re out and about enjoying lovely weather, we can’t help but notice that the season of autumn is changing. The weather is a bit chillier, snow might be on the near horizon, but meanwhile, we become aware of falling leaves and notice that our grass is dying! That just might remind us once again of how short our lives are. Several friends are computer experts and they certainly like to remind some of us older folks that there are advancements in technology that beat anything and everything that ever was...

  • Out Our Way: The crying bull - 1 John 4:16

    Updated Nov 9, 2018

    Out our way, Shakespeare isn’t often quoted — ’specially when pushing cattle — but I believe I may have uttered a quotation from Hamlet one day out on the Tiger Ridge. To wit: “There are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” Something like that, at any rate I recall Charlie and I were pushing a herd to new pasture and while he pushed the main herd, I got the “good old boys club” — the bulls that hang together after mating season. Well, they were fairly docile about it and got moving withou...

  • Celebrating History: The Great War ends

    Updated Nov 9, 2018

    By Emily Mayer Lots of history was made at this time 100 years ago. A contentious election was finalized, but since I think we've all had enough of elections for now, this column will focus on another important event taking place at the same time, that being the end of The Great War. News of an armistice had been announced earlier in the week, but it turned out to be a false one. So, when news reached stateside that the armistice had been reached with the unconditional...

    George Ferguson|Updated Nov 9, 2018

    If the Montana Grizzlies and Montana State Bobcats want more than pride and the Great Divide Trophy to be on the line when they meet Nov. 17 in Missoula, then neither can afford to slip up against teams with losing records this weekend. Just one week before the 2018 Brawl of the Wild, the Bobcats close out their home schedule with a Big Sky Conference game against Northern Colorado, while the Grizzlies travel to Moscow, Idaho, to renew their long-standing rivalry with the Univ...
