- Quotes
Ranger J. Audubon Woodlore: [singing] First you stick a rag / Put it in the bag / Bump bump! / Then you bend your back / Put it in the sack / Bump bump! / That's the way it's done / It's a lot of fun / Bump bump! / Cuttin' capers / Puttin' papers in the bag!

Featured review
Three cheers for Humphrey and his pals!
I love Disney's Humphrey the Bear. He was a cute character from the 1950s that starred in a half dozen films--ones I loved to watch whenever they were shown on television. Why? Because they are fun--something some cartoons forget.
The ranger is sad--all the tourists have left the park a mess. Instead of cleaning it himself, he comes up with a plan--to con the bears into thinking cleaning up is some sort of game! He divides up the property like a ball field and sings the bears a catchy tune--and they dance about cleaning litter. Seeing the silly bears dancing about is pretty cute--but it gets even better once the bears realize they've been had! So what is the poor ranger to do? He obviously needs to come up with a better plan--one that involves Chicken Cacciatore!
Why did I like this cartoon (other than the fact that it has a catchy song)? Well, the bears were so adorable and expressive--possibly the best ones I've ever seen in a cartoon. And, on top of that, it's very funny. Well worth your time--and one of the better Disney shorts of the era.
