Last week, word was received from Public Works Director Jim Truelove informing Mayor John Demarais there was a problem with the lagoon not working properly. A state of emergency was declared from the City Office, which gave the Mayor the authority to make it a priority and get on the phone to start making contact with the necessary entities to begin the long and immediate process of fixing the situation. Demarais stated things were going good by the time he was interviewed and said that the...
Steve graduated from Malta High School at the age of four, Janet graduated at age four, as well. Steve is now 17 and a grandfather. Needless to say, these two are indeed special. Steve Baeth and his sister, Janet (Baeth) Veseth are only two of a large number of people, over 5 million, who only celebrate their birthday every four years. Those 5 million are a mere .1% of the population! This is because they were born in a Leap Year, on February 29th. They are known as "leapers" or...
The day after Valentine’s Day, individuals from Phillips County, and one from Blaine County, decided to be a sweetheart and give the gift of life…blood.

Red Cross Blood Draw coordinator, Teresa Hotchkiss was pleased with the turnout, as the goal had been set for 50 units…an extra five units is always welcomed. Held at the Event Center, the team from Great Falls kept the traff...

The Founding Fathers had many contentious debates over the powers of the United States versus the States. Their goal was to avoid any suggestion of creating sovereignty. Section 8 of the Constitution of the USA limited the roles and powers of the Federal Congress to International issues, declarations of war, interstate commerce, etc. In Amendment X the powers not specifically delegated to the United States are reserved to the States. The Founding Fathers tried to design a system where power was not concentrated in any aspect of the government....
It’s that time of year when Barb and I head south. By the end of February, we’ve had enough snow and cold. Warmer climes begin to call. For decades we pulled a boat to Florida, fishing the salt on both the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. Most years we camped on barrier islands under the palms. Eventually, however, that trip became too long, Florida too crowded, and too many days on the road to get there. We began spending time in the California desert about five years ago. While it lacked the fis...

As I said last week, Rodney drove me up to Loring and the weather was fantastic. We saw two bald eagles and about 50 hawks, which happens at this time of year. We did not see any newborn calves, but I’m sure they will be coming soon! I had a wonderful time up North! Cindy Clark, Carol Lumsden and I made an international journey on Tuesday to Val Marie. I asked to get a stamp for my passport when we crossed into Canada. It’s my first use of the passport, and I’ve had it for 5 years! We ate lunch...
