cars moving safely. They take care of people who are hurt. Then they send these people to get a
doctor.
The police go around town to see that everything is all right. They get around town in many
ways. Some of them walk or go by car. In some big cities, some of the police ride on horses. It is
strange to see these animals in the street,
As they go around town, the police help people. Sometimes they find lost children; They
take the children home. If the police see a fight, they put an end to it right away. Sometimes
people will ask the police how to get to a place in town. The police can always tell the people
whichway to go. They know all the streets and roads well.
Some of them stand at crossings. They tell the cars when to go and when to stop. They make
sure that the cars do not go too fast. They help children cross the street. They'also help people
