ep204 Typhoid Fever at Stormy Point

Ranger Bill, warrior of the woodlands, struggling against extreme odds, traveling dangerous trails, fighting the many enemies of nature. This is the job of the guardian of the forest, Ranger Bill, pouring rain, freezing cold, blistering heat, snow, floods, bears, rattlesnakes, mountain lions.

Yes, all this in exchange for the satisfaction and pride of a job well done. Sometimes doctors pick strange places to practice. For instance, there's that young Dr. Bruce Hummer, who has his office in the village of Storm Point.

Storm Point, of course, is located way up in the Dexter Mountains, way out in the middle of nowhere. In many respects, the people of Storm Point are very superstitious and backward. They live isolated from the world, except during the mid-summer months when the ice and snow is melted enough to allow free travel. This fellow Bruce went to Storm Point right after he left medical school.

It's been very difficult for him most of the time. He's had to battle the villagers. They think he's harming them more than helping them with his new fangled methods. After all, you don't go from sulfur and molasses to penicillin without some objection being raised. Now Dr. Bruce is paying a brief visit to the town of Nottie Pine. In fact, he's just on his way over to see Bill and the rest of the

fellows. Bill, Stumpy, Gray Wolf, and Henry are relaxing a bit at headquarters and a high mean relaxing. Honestly, every time Stumpy gets in where it's warm, he falls asleep. Oh, he had not in long at that time.

Boy, he sure can saw what listened to it. I wonder if I should get him a bale of hay so he can feed his nightmare. Now let the old-timer sleep fellas. When you get his aid, you'll sleep in the warm air too.
