TR Tuesday, 8 MAY 07

Here's a quote from Mr. Roosevelt about what is expected from America's boys (in a more enlightened time we would just say youth). What would he say about America today?

"A healthy-minded boy should feel hearty contempt for the coward and even more hearty indignation for the boy who bullies girls or small boys, or tortures animals."..."What we have a right to expect of the American boy is that he shall turn out to be a good American man."
"The American Boy," St. Nicholas Magazine, May 1900
