His duties involve considerable danger and occasional opportunities for heroism. Ills miscellaneous services make him useful to people., indeed the policeman has Al most if not us great an Opportunity for influencing the morals of youth As a school teacher. It is All the More n pity that pm ups of boys often feet to look upon the policeman As their natural ene my. And gets to look upon tie boys As the most Lawless of citizens.
