SCOUTING FOR GIRLS

with the other and tuck the sheet under. This under 
sheet should be very smooth without a wrinkle in it. If 
it is not long enough to tuck in well at both head and 
foot, leave plenty at the head to tuck in securely and 
tuck in at the sides tightly rather than risk having it 
come loose at the head. Be sure, however, that the mat- 
tress is entirely covered. 
When Rubber and Draw Sheets Are Used 
Before going around to the other side, lay the rubber 
sheet over the bed, so that the top edge will be well above 
where the lower edge of the pillow will come. Put the 
draw sheet over it. Tuck both well under the mattress on 
that side. Then, go to the other side and tuck ;n the 
corners of the lower sheet as directed, then stretching 
draw, rubber, and under sheet very tightly, tuck in 
separately. 
Next spread the upper sheet, wrong side up, leaving as 
much at the head to turn back over the blankets as you 
left in the under sheet to tuck in. Have the middle fold 
over that of the lower sheet. Spread the blankets so 
that their upper edges will be even with the upper edge 
of the mattress. If the blankets are not long enough to 
reach as far up as they should, and yet tuck under firmly 
at the foot, place the lower one as directed, and the upper 
one so that there will be enough to tuck under at the foot, 
and hold the others in place. Tuck all in at once at foot 
and lower corners, mitring the corners as you did those 
of the lower sheet. Pull and straighten the sheet at the 
top and turn back smoothly over the blankets. If the bed 
is not to be occupied right away, tuck in both sides, 
stretching well so that it will have a smooth surface. Put 
on the spread, having the top edge even with the top of 
the covers. Tuck in neatly at foot and lower corners.
