Run Away aka The River Giant

Ranger Bill, his mind alert, a ready smile, unswerving, loyal to his mission. And all this in exchange for the satisfaction and pride of a job well done. As Chief Ranger, I like to keep right up to date with everything that goes on and I get a lot of very much appreciated help from my friends.

I'm very fortunate this way. Maybe it's because all the people in the district know that we're trying to do a sincere job. One of my friends is Ted Coates, who owns and runs the barge line on the Shady River.

The Shady River is becoming more important every year as a mainline for freight, especially since there's so much national defense effort going on here in the district. Uncle Sam is making great underground facilities of which I am not at liberty to discuss.

But the Shady River figures in his most important artery for barges loaded with cargoes of every description. Tad invited Stompionai down to San Jose to see a new tow boat. Here's Central City. Yep, right where it's always been.

See, went so special about a tow boat. You see them all. You're in for an educational timer. I am. You sure are. If Tad asked us down here to show us what I think he's going to show us.

Hey, I thought this was a secret. It's a semi-secret. Well, now you've got an eight-one for the cake. I've here to send my trailer, send my circle, send my final. Semifinal, Semifluid, Semiconcious, Semideble, Semide Dome?

But I ain't never here to a Semide secret. A Semide secret is a half secret, Stephanie. How can a secret be a secret if it's a half secret? Okay, forget it. I know that I took it out sooner or later.
