DIRECTIONS FOR STARCHING

Dissolve ¼ cup starch in ½ cup of cold water. Boil about 1 ¼ cups of water, remove from flame, then slowly stir the starch mixture into boiling water stirring constantly. Place back on flame until it thickens. As soon as starch is cool enough to handle, dip hat, squeeze starch through it thoroughly. Wring out extra starch. The article should be wet with starch but there should be none in the spaces. Place over head mold or bowl and let dry.
