These boxes hold title and body text or objects such as charts, tables, and pictures.) on the master (master: A slide view or page on which you define formatting for all slides or pages in your presentation. Each presentation has a master for each key component: slides, title slides, speaker's notes, and audience handouts.) and you want to reinsert it, do any of the following:

Show Restore placeholders on the slide master

On the View menu, point to Master, and then click Slide Master.
