Everyone knOirs instantly that the police are on the scene, but what are /they doing this time? Maybe they are watching for speeding, drunken or underaged drivers; maybe they are tracking down a missing person. They may be watching for robbers, kidnap- pers, drug trafficers or other criminals. , Whatever their mission is, they are out to protect, you, the people. Again and again police have put their lives down for an endangered person. They have walked calmly into situations froM which, I am sure, the average' person would gladly, run. Police have brought protection' to people all 'over the world. This earth would be a, terrifying place, without thp guaran- teed protection of our police force. We would be overpowered by corruption. Even criminals could not walk the streets safely. Police spend time with us, the students in various schools, across the country, to tell us of the safety rules and ensure Us of a longer life. They work day and night trying to keep the .world a safer place in which to live. Krea Native Died At Paisley The passing took place on Thursday, May 22nd of a well- known • citizen of Paisley in the person of George Hodgkinson at the age of 86 years.

Even when a policeman captures a criminal he is once again showing that he cares. By removing this person from the streets the police are giving him 'a chance to consider a fresh start in the right direction. Obviously this doesn't work very often but meanwhile he is protect- ing the innocent from him. If the criminal does not learn from his fifst experience in jail the police are hopeful that he will during his second stay. Though the guilty may not realize it at the time, this shows that the police care about the criminals too and, understand that they are human beings also. But for all their trouble the police are usually rewarded with rude names or rough treatment when 'they are only 'trying to stop a person from hurting others and himself. Police have spent time' in training and only those who are `fully capable of handling any situation are put out to patrol the street. So whoever you are, criminal or innocent,'citizen, those occupants of the car with the cherry on top are' out to protect you, the people. FLAG THE LUCKNOW SENTINEL CONTES TO
