Dear Lonely Lou-Your trouble
is probably that you do not know
how to sell yourself. 1t is said
that every successful salesman sells
two things-his article and him
self. Possibly a few lessons in
practical psychology would help you
learn the trick of making people
like you. Why don't you get some
books at the library on personality
and learn of what simple elements
this thing popularity is made?
Your voice. and your manner is
important. Make them pleasant
and cordial. Your personal ap-
pearance is important. Change
your way of dressing your hair and
cultivate individualism in the way
you wear your clothes. Change
your manner of talking. learn how
to raise the ego of the people you
wish to charm. There is a new
book out called Strategy in Han
ding People" which you could
read with profit. Work at this
problem until you learn the trick of
selling your own personality, and
the circumstances of your life will
change.
