What does the Scout Law mean?


"The boy is not governed by Don't, but is led on by Do.  The Scout Law, therefore, was devised as a guide to his actions rather than as repressive of his faults.  It merely states what is good form and expected of a Scout." Lessons from the Varsity of Life, Lord Baden-Powell
