[Music] it was mid August 1919 I was young and I thought I was tough I knew it was beautiful and I was a little bit crazy but hadn't noticed it yet we were the summer crew Mr McBride and his redheaded son worked at different ranches in the Bitterroot Valley and were saving up for their own place Mr Smith had been a minor all his life and naturally was our powder man had headaches touching your face after touching dynamite dynamite made me sick and it must have been why Mr Smith had such terrible problems with his health the one we called Canada wore the first pair of horn rimmed glasses I ever saw he'd been in his Majesty's Royal something or other and had been Gass in the trenches the way he treated animals was Kinder than any man I ever knew except for Bill Bell the head Ranger of the elk Summit District of the cellway forest and rumored to be the toughest man in the bitteroot valley and we thought the best Ranger in the forest [Music] service [Music] I'd worked for bill for three Summers and even though he was my model and an artist maybe because he was at 17 something in me was half looking for trouble with [Music] him got your fuse Too Short might have dangerous yeah

should just get my time and quit what I neglected to tell myself is that it's almost impossible to quit a ranger who's sore because you do not like his cook and I also had the feeling that he was watching me somehow just to see if I'd duck out when things got tough was the night on a March of Lake barge was the night on the Marge of Lake large when I cremated Sam okay okay upet [Applause] oh that's it that's it time quick time to quit that's it time to quit some reason you're standing there well it rained snow was coming I I could tell uh season's pretty near over you get a message from

so [Music] good count your blessings back cook could have fit you clean all summer something about this cook business doesn't add up I think Bill's got something up his sleeve that's what I think what do you think Mac red let me ask you have you ever once in your whole life had one single solitary original thought that didn't bounce off from somewhere else I mean have you ever sat down considered all the available information weighted all in your mind sifted all the possibilities discarded what you couldn't prove sorted out what made sense and came to your own personal original red McBride opinion why would I go to all that trouble good night son good night p [Music] [Music] all [Music] right hey go [Music] this what's going on WOW [Music] [Music] Mr McBride thinks you got something up your sleeve well do you Rangers Revenge how where into every season those tinhorn gamblers at the Oxford strip me clean well I don't suppose it's a big secret in the district that you aren't well a real whizbang at the cards well it's a sure enough secret that the cook is that's why I'm bet my whole bank roll on it I'm leaving it up to you to get the rest of the crew to chip in and help fatten up the cook's plan money me they know how you feel about the cook they bound to go along they see you bet on it my wages on him you win big real big that time comes you pick up the money use a bag or something H bill I I don't know if I deserve to have such a key part in this range your noses men well does he know one of them namely me isn't too keen on getting his head punched in a those tin horns are panty waste when it comes to shedding any blood what a relief here take your gun just in case holy Moses bill I got nothing but that 3220 on a 45 frame that's as big as horse artillery I I'd

into the bag make it a sugar bag sort of sweet Justice I'm gting on you Mac I don't know Bill I I don't go in too much for getting stuff and beat out of me I told you I'll cover you yeah but what I'm saying is that the I said I wonder if the United States forest service has any idea why their Crews have such an appetite for peaches this is good stuff oh [Applause] Bill had explained the Rangers Revenge to the crew but they hadn't warmed to the idea of backing Hawks any more than I had fact was they'd rather darn socks than lose a dime so Bill and I both knew that it was up to me to talk them into [Applause] itm bit yeah yeah be careful [Music] there you guys want some more that young lad there there you go time for celebration good huh boys here we are the end of the season you all know

swinging a jackhammer fighting fire love to [Music] fight good with tools and Knots like to work you think about it that's a lot to say about a bunch of men yes it [Music] [Music] is girl go on go on now there that old dog thanks good one girl oh it's my girl yeah my girl you catch any KY this summer did you did you yeah girl [Music] yeah that was a fair thing you did for the [Music] cook yeah well so going to come work for me next summer fair chance of making a ranger out of you yet sure it's a deal it's a deal then I'll right you in the spring deal be seeing you me too [Music] come on [Music] girl I watched Bill Bell and his horse and that old dog who loved catching coyotes and then he turned in his saddle and raised up that hat he always wore and gave me a big wave and I stood on the middle rail of the Corral and gave him a big wave back I had no way of knowing that particular afternoon but I was never to cross the bitteroot mountains again and I was never to see Bill Bell or any of the other men again I have a feeling Bill Bell might have guessed that when he rode off everything that was going to happen had happened everything that was to be seen was gone my summer with a Ranger and the cook had all disappeared into that gigantic Hole in the Sky I think the answer had something to do with my becoming 18 the next summer the wind sort of shifted in my life I start started wishing that freckled girl Sue might just show up in Missoula things like that I was very conscious of becoming [Music] 18 [Music]
