Americans believe everyone should be free and should control his or her own life. We have the right to own property and to worship any way we want. Our laws protect each of us equally. People did not always live this way. How men and women got together and started our free way of life makes an interesting story. The story is still being written. Probably your parents and grandparents and even your great-grandparents are a part of it. You can be part of it, too. As a Cub Scout, you can be one of the reasons that America is special. Help others. Be a good citizen. Take part in the life of your country. |
