POLLY’S POINTERS
Crib mattresses
Rarely a fit
p—- Problem--
DEAR POLLY — I crocheted a large ruffled doily
(15 inches in diameter) and have not been able to
starch it satisfactorily so the ruffles stay as they
should. I have tried large pop bottles but they were
not big enough and also is one starch better than an
other — liquid or hot? — B.G.
DEAR POLLY — My Pet Peeve is with those so-called
standard size cribs. The mattresses that come with them fit
just fine but try and buy a new one that fits. They are either
too narrow, too short or both.
One I bought was two inches too narrow so we had to buy
a thick piece of foam rubber and cut it to the right length so
it could be wedged between the mattress and crib. Then my
mother-in-law sewed a pretty flannel cover for it and also
covered the crib liner to match after pre-shrinking the
flannel.
Another Pet Peeve is with postage stamps and is not so
much their rising costs but the lesser amount of glue they
have on them. — KAY.

Fashion Tips
Reflective fabric trim to put
on clothing of children or
adults who bicycle at night
shines 185 times brighter than
white paint when a motorists
headlight focuses on it.
However, the trim lights up
only to the driver.
This enables the motorists to
have a long distance warning
of anyone who may be in the
street.
