Title:
Ray Nott gets acquainted with employees of L-U ranch.
Description:
Ray Nott (center, wearing jacket) gets acquainted with employees of L-U ranch, one of the largest in his parish. Scene of this picture is ranch's commissary. From this store, foodstuffs are taken to dozens of herders scattered around the thousands of acres of range land. Ray finds the men eager to talk about their problems, since they have little opportunity to visit with persons beyond their own small number of employees. Later, he held a worship service for ranch people at a school nearby.
