Why Do We Celebrate Independence Day First Comic - Beetle Bailey

I'm the comic weekly man, the jolly comic weekly man, and I'm here to read the funnies to you happy boys and honeys. Yes boys and girls, it's comic weekly time, and here I come right into your house to bring a little fun and happiness.

Right out of the pages of Puck the comic weekly straight into your living room, your friend the comic weekly man, the jolly comic weekly man. Hello! Oh, little Miss Hani, how are you today? Oh, and just next week is the Fourth of July.

That's right. And do you know why we celebrate the Fourth of July? Yes, because it's Independence Day. Yes, but why is it Independence Day? Well, that was the day that the Americans said that they weren't going to let the English rule them anymore.

Yeah, that's right too, but do you know why? Well, I think it was because the English King was very unfair to the Americans. and sort of like a tyrant. That's right. You know what I think would be a good idea?

Why? You celebrate the Fourth of July by getting a book and learning how the king was unfair and why our forefathers fought for their independence and how they won the freedom from that English king.

George Washington was a leader wasn't he? Yes he was. You read about his life and you learn the story of America's freedom. And you'll find out that you'll know something extra and interesting by the time you get back to school in the fall.

That'll be nice. Now can you read the funnies? Puck the comic weekly. Very well. I'll read that in just a moment. But before I do, let's listen to this nice man. Here we go with Puck the Comic Weekly.
