| Summary | "The Boy Scouts for Home Protection" by Robert Shaler is a children’s adventure tale written during the early 20th century. This story is part of a series centered around the experiences of the Oakvale Boy Scouts, particularly focusing on their efforts to improve their town and protect their community. It explores themes of responsibility, bravery, and community service through the characters' attempts to address local issues and hazards. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Hugh Hardin, the patrol leader and assistant scout master, and his friends as they discuss the lack of safety at a dangerous intersection in their town. The boys express their determination to enact change and protect the children in their community from potential accidents. Through discussions about upcoming town improvements and various nuisances that need to be tackled, the opening chapters lay the groundwork for the troops' mission to revitalize their town. The narrative suggests a budding leadership theme as Hugh prepares to take action, setting the stage for the Boy Scouts' involvement in local governance and civic duty.
