Dear Abby i m glad you printed that letter from mad at the mail who complained because the postage Stamps did t stick. I thought maybe i was losing my mind be cause lately i be had letters re turned to me marked postage due when i knew for a fact had put Stamps on them. I never had that kind of trouble with Stamps before. Now i keep a pot of glue on my desk. It takes a Little longer to get a letter off but at least i know it s going to get there Greg h., St. Paul Minn. Dear Abby in 1945, during world War ii i was working for dentist and i used to stamp All the outgoing mail. The Stamps did t stick due to inferior glue so a postal employee suggested that i sit on the envelopes for a while. He said that it had something to do with body heat Well i did As  suggested i still do and i Haven t had any trouble with Stamps falling off since. Problem solved dear Abby dear Abby you and mad at the mail Are going at things backward the fault lies not in the Stamps dear Abby but in yourself. You should try moistening the envelope not the stamp. When you moisten the stamp by whatever method you remove some of the glue sometimes All of it. That s Why the Stamps Don t stick. Dear Abby in reference to Stamps that Don t stick recently i had a rather elaborate card to mail that required three 25-cent Stamps so i very carefully put a Small strip of scotch tape along the Edge of each postage stamp in order to secure it. It was a sympathy card to a dear Friend and i wanted to make sure it arrived Well seven Days later the card was returned to me marked against regulations to obscure  Abby i am a 77-year-old great grandmother and i m sick and tired of poor Quality and government greed no name please dear readers and now a word from the postmaster  Abby the postal service is concerned that stamp adhesive Sticks and has asked its suppliers to take additional Quality Assurance measures. To obtain an even better solution we funded an extensive research Effort in 1988 to find a Superior adhesive that will firmly adhere Stamps to any material used in envelopes while at the same time not prematurely sticking to each other. Such an adhesive must be effective enough under Broad environmental conditions of heat and cold High humidity and Low humidity. This Effort has narrowed our search to several adne Sives that meet these criteria and we Are testing the now. When those tests Are completed we will require our suppliers to use these new improved adhesives then our Stamps once stuck will stay stuck. Xii Anthony m. Frank postmaster general . Postal service dear postmaster Frank frankly it s High time. Meanwhile we Are stuck with a lot of Stamps that won t stick. C Universal press Syndicate
