Hailstorm Sweeps Canada

There's a hailstorm comin'!

We'll have to work all night

to save the crop!

Divide the men in two shifts, Mac...

double pay for overtime!

...double pay for overtime!

HAILSTORM SWEEPS CENTRAL CANAD

WHEAT CROP RUINED

I cut my hand on the machine.

Say, are you crazy?

A girl like you buryin'

yourself in a dump like this!

What's the matter with you hicks?

Don't people ever

fall in love out here?

You didn't look exactly lovin'

when you ran...

...out of that room tonight.

Why don't you chuck all this...

come away with me when we

finish the harvestin'...

I'll treat you right...

and that's more than...

...old Tustine will ever let Lem do!

I always knew you

wasn't a good woman!

I'm goin' to find Lem now...and

tell him what kind of wife he's got

What's the use of talkin'

to that old devil?

I know how to get even with him...

The storm'll be here in no time...

I used to think the country was clean,...

...that men out here were decent...

But you're all alike...cheap sports!

You all talk big

when you want something!!

If that's the way you feel about it,

I'll give you somethin' more'n talk!

I don't want anything from you!

I can fight for myself!

You agreed to work all night!

We've changed our minds.

We're quittin' now!

My father says he caught you and Mac

planning to run away together.

Haven't you anything to say?

Not a thing... you can

believe it or not!

If I thought it was true...

Yeah? What would you do?

Run to Papa?

I'd smash Mac so's he'd never come

hanging around my wife again!!

You got to learn any

man can get a wife!!

But it takes more'n a license

and a wedding ring to hold her!

I guess our marriage was a mistake.

I'll shoot the first man

that leaves my farm!

Listen to me Kate. I've settled

your score with the old man!

I've called the men out...

and we're leavin'the wheat

to rot in the fields.

I'm leavin' with the men in ten minutes

and you're comin' with me...

..If you don't I'll say you

put me up to ruinin' the wheat!

Are you comin'?

Yes...yes ..but I've got to

have time to pack.

Here's somethin' Mac forgot!

We're waitin' for Kate

...she's comin' with me!

I thought I could help

you by staying,...

...then you believed

that lie about me and Mac.

Mac tried to get me to go with him

but I wouldn't. Maybe with me gone,

They'll work and save the wheat

I never loved anybody but you,

Goodbye, Kate.

Father... it's Lem!

FATHER!

Son, you know I...I wasn't

meanin' to shoot you.

There's some things worse'n shooting.

One of 'ems the hell..

...you been putting

Kate and me through.

...Now I'm going to find Kate...

...and take her away...

where we can live our own lives.
