BEAUTY IS PART OF YOUR JOB i Brains and diploma, ambition and : common sense are ail excellent equipi ment for a job, but these days we do ■ not put up good merchandise in i shoddy packages. Neither should a I girl whose business services are worth I selling offer them in a slovenly person. 1 When you set out to lay seige to the i business world, do not rely entirely I upon personality and a diploma. That i does not just mean good make-up and i a smart coiffure, either. It means an i ensemble appearance of neatness— I smart, simple clothes with a minimum I of ornamentation, neat hair and hands I and shoes. Spend a lot of care on the i choice of your shoes and your foundai lion garments, because upon these important essentials depend, to a large extent, the impression of neatness and trim efficiency which you must strive | to give. When vou are choosing your lounI dation, be sure it is large enough and ' thoroughly comfortable when you sit. I And be sure it is long enough so that i it remains firmly where it belongs and does not need tugging back into place everv time you stand up. Elastic shoulder straps need to be kept at the correct length, and if you have the kind of shoulders that slope sharply and straps simply will not stay up, saw little domed slots into all your frocks. Remember that your foundation needs a bath and a rest to keep its efficiency. So always have two garments, and wear them week about. °Do not totter round in ill-fitting shoes. Nothing takes the mind off business like hurting feet. And keep your shoes in good condition. Trim heels and a shine are good for your I self-respect. ___
