The Test

Destination Freedom Listen, it's the Freedom Bell. Say the Freedom Bell, my friends, and this is Paul Revere, called back from the shadows by the sound of the Freedom Bell to cry again a warning that the price of freedom is eternal vigilance.

Destination Freedom is presented by station WMAQ in the interest of human freedom the world over. Paul Revere is the symbol of warning, Ready to ride down the skies to shout an alarm his destination now and forever freedom Books in my day were for the rich and so was education But times have changed and today every child has the right to go to school to get an education

Now it's a great privilege to be able to go to school For learning creates new horizons opens up new and wonderful worlds for the young developing minds and the democracy cannot grow and prosper without an enlightened people.

That's a fact. A fact our forefathers realized early in the history of our country. And so it became a part of our great national heritage that all children have the right to study, to learn, to become the enlightened people needed in a democracy.

Still, most children fail to realize the value of education. and so are various states have found it necessary to insist that their young citizens attend school, at least until they finish high school anyway. Then there are colleges for students who desire more education, and while grammar schools and high schools are free to everyone,

a college student in either a private or a state-supported college has to pay most of his own way. And don't forget that he is there because of his own choice. No one makes him go.
