Default New documents don't show header/footer parts of page ... why?

Move your cursor to the edge of the "page". When it changes shape, click
once.

One day, I opened up a new document and (in 'whole page' view) I noticed
that
the paper was an odd shape - too short to be a simulated 8-1/2 x 11 letter
size. Additionally, the cursor was blinking at the apparent top of the
page.

If I go to the menu bar and select 'Show header/footer', then the rest of
the paper page appears and all is back to normal. But I have to do this
every
time I open a new document, and it's annoying!

What's the setting to fix this?
