POLICE TRAINING
It may or may not be true that "A policeman's lot
not a happy one" as W. S. Gilbert once wrote. However, that a policeman's life is a very full one, and that he requires a good deal of specialised knowledge, is amply shown at the Police Training School at Aberdeen. The men in training there go through a stiff course as hard mentally as it is physi. cally. When they are finished they demonstrate that the arm of the law, as well as being long, is backed up by the confidence installed by the teach- ing of modern methods and technique.
