The worst feeling in the world!
Nine years old and he can’t play with the
gang! His parents say two or three of the
boys are different and he shouldn’t associate
with them.
What do they mean, different? He remem
bers that only a few days ago his history teacher
told him that all Americans are equal—all
citizens of one country and all working to
gether.
This kid judges the rest of the gang by
their individual personality, character and how
they play ball—not by their race or religion.
Each race, each religion, contributes its own
talents, culture and idealism to produce that
amazing blend of ideas and vigor which have

proud of his country . . . not ashamed of it—
and he can be if we don’t influence him to the
contrary!
Make sure that you are not spreading ru
mors against a race or a religion. Speak up,
wherever you are, against prejudice, and work
for better understanding. Remember that’s
what it means—to be a good American citizen.
