For many documents, a better way to make the second and
subsequent pages Default is to define the First Page style to
have a "Next page style" of Default. Then you don't need to put
in a manual break; when the text on the first page gets long
enough to continue onto a second page, the second page
automatically has the Default page style.
More about this is explained in the document "Introduction to
Styles," available here:
http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/oooauthors2/0206WG-IntroductionToStyles.pdf
and in "Formatting Pages":
