Personal appearance is a big fac- tor in success these days. That doesn’t mean that a person must be over-dressed or foppish,, quite the contrary, in fact. But the employer is quick to recognize the fact that one who does not think anything of his own personal appearance is not likely to have much ambition to progress in a business way. While the person who “presents a good front” when he smiles and shows a fine set of well-kept teeth has got a big handicap on the other fellow right from the start.
