horses. We had fun, did you?
Twelve of our boys want to be
policemen like you when they
grow up. Thank you again po-
licemen for leading Brechin School:
Hugs and kisses.”’

“Dear Mounties:

“Thank you for escorting us to
our Track Meet on Monday. We
appreciated it very much. It was
fun to watch the beautiful white
horses prancing along the road in

proud to have such a lovely be-
ginning to our parade. We enjoyed
watching the horses ahead of us
in our parade. The officers in the
head of the 24th of May Parade
also made everything look nice.

The last letter refers to the four
members of the Force who led the
parade the following day.

Well, fellows and girls, many
thanks for the kind letters. We po-
licemen like doing things for you
and we want you to know that we
are always your friends. And to
you, ladies and gentlemen whose
guiding hand lead the youngster dur-
ing his formative years, many thanks
for your good offices in this splendid
token of recognition from a great

institution, BRECHIN SCHOOL.
