POLLY'S POSTERS DEAR POLLYlJJffiltipped and must make every penny coujit. (Polly's note: That is something we all have to do these days.) 1 have several whole slips and sweaters, size 32. I have gained weight and wear size 36. Please, how can sups and sweaters be made larger? DEAR A.P. You might use one slip to cut up for bands of the necessary width to set in the opened side seams in your slips.

Handknit sweaters usually will take to stretching more easily than machine knits. Sweaters, particularly loosely knit ones, might be washed, rinsed with fabric softener to relax the fibers and then stretchd and pinned to a firm pattern such as one drawn to the correct sue on a board. Let dry. If one has a sweater frame this could be done with Cardigan sweaters could have wide bands, such as grosgrain ribbon, set over the front openings (will hide buttonholes on one side) and then be worn open. If this does make the sweater loose enough, the center back might be determined, a row of machine stitching put close to each side of the center that will be cut open.

A band of the matching ribbon or whatever could be set in the back, too. Slipover sweaters could be slit down the middle front the same way and wide bands added to make an unfastened cardigan. How have you readers solved this Sew in an Hour!

The tendency for nurses to choose to work in the sort of community in which they grew up was revealed in a study conducted by Gretchen Schodde, one of the first rural nurse practitioners placed by the Regional Medical Program.

Miss Schodde, who worked in the doctorless community of Darrington, completed the study as partial requirement for her master of nursing degree at the University of Washington. The study was funded in part by and considered the problem of finding more health care personnel for rural areas. A questionnaire was distributed nationally to 581 family nurse practitioners, nurses trained duties under supervision of a physician who may be in the same office or some distance away. The 235 responses revealed, roughly, this profile of the nurse practitioner who chooses a rural assignment: a country-bred woman, graduate of a diploma (hospital) school of nursing, whose training included some rural experience and whose husband is not a professional. Her wages may range from unpaid volunteer to more than $20,000 annually.

Those in the higher brackets usually staff freestanding clinics in remote areas. In contrast, the city-based nurse practitioner tends to have more ad- Notes on art vanced education, often is wed to a professional or student and falls into the middle salary bracket between JIO.OOO and $20,000 annually. Miss Schodde felt her survey refuted the theory that nurse practitioners are frustrated physicians. Only about one- fifth said they would have preferred to be a doctor. Noting that nurse practitioners creasingly are sought to augment health care in rural areas lacking adequate physician coverage, Miss Schodde recommended recruiting nurses with rural backgrounds and including rural experiences in their curriculum.

Cerehral palsy is caused by an injury usl before, during or ira mediately after birth.
