Right Is Right, Even If No One

Honor. This Means That A Girl Is Not Satisfied With Keeping The Letter Of The Law When She Really Breaks It In Spirit. Loyal. This Means That She Is True To Her Country, To The City Or Village Where She Is A Citizen, To Her Family, Her Church, Her School, And Those For Whom She May Work Or Who May Work For Her. Helpful. The Simplest Way Of Saying This For The Very Young Scout Is To Do A Good Turn To Someone Every Day: That Is, To Be A Giver And Not A Taker. This Is The Spirit That Makes The Older Scout Into A Fine, Useful, Dependable Woman.

Badges Mean Nothing In Themselves, But They Mark A Certain Achievement And They Are A Link Between The Rich And The Poor. For When One Girl Sees A Badge On A Sister Scout's Arm, If That Girl Has Won The Same Badge, It At Once Awakens An Interest And Sympathy Between Them.

Once I Showed Up At My Sister's With A Baby Rabbit I Had Bought From Some Children Because Its Ears Were Cold. I Put The Rabbit On A Hot Water Bottle And Massaged Its Ears For Quite A While. After All, I Knew That All Healthy Animals Had Warm Ears.

A Badge Is A Symbol That Girls Have Done The Thing It Stands For Often Enough, Thoroughly Enough, And Well Enough To Be Prepared To Give Service In It.

Right Is Right, Even If No One Else Does It.
