We should treat him with the respect due to an officer. When speaking to him, we should always address him in a courteous manner as “Mr. Officer,” or “Mr. Policeman.”
We should obey his directions when on the street and at the crossings. These are given for our safety, and not because he likes to order us about.
We should notify him at once in case of theft, fire, or danger of any kind. If we cannot find the officer on the beat at once, we should notify the police station. If we do this by telephone, we should call the operator and ask for “Police.”
We should regard the policeman as a friend, and be ready to aid him at all times in the performance of his duty.
The Lost Child’s Friend.
