studied how to eliminate it In all it's
phases. She studied the problem in
the light Of affording a broader field
in which to use her energies. When
she was satisfied that there was an op-
portunlty for her to employ her tai
ents to the best advantage. she
branched out for herself. She became
a Wall street efficiency engineer.
Wal street is made up of a mass of
businesses, big and little. There are
some concerns hat employ hundreds
Of men and women. There are some
that employ a dozen or two. There
are some hat are made up Of a man,
a boy, and an apology for a stenog-
rapher. Some Of these businesses are
we'll organized. The majority are not.
Inanimate machinery works more ac-
curately and moro regularly than ami
mated. 1t is a rare business manager
who gets the best possible results out
of his office force.
One day Wall street was surprised
to receive an announcement from Miss
Shapiro that she was ready to assist
business houses to reduce their Of
flee expenses and at the same time
maintain the highest standard Of eff
cheney. These results she would OBJ
tain by studying their needs carefully
and applying the most practical plans
and suggestions.
!; Some of the men who received her
announcement threw it in the waste
basket. To some Of the others it gave
an idea. They were not satisfied with
the manner in which their offices were
being conducted. Expenses were high,
but somehow they did not manage to
get their work handled satisfactorily.
They sent for the young Woman. They
acknowledged they did not know what
was wrong, but were willing to
have the source of the trouble discov-
cred for them, and were ready to pay
well for it.
New eyes are better than old. Some
times a person is too close to an OBJ.

their minds. Occasionally there is one
different. She was earnest, ambitious
and eager to learn. She wanted to
have her full share of the innocent
pleasures OF life, but downtown meant
business to her. AS she wanted to go
ahead in the world she could not see
wherein she would be doing justice
to herself If she did not learn every
thing she could about business.
Learned Something Every Day.
What education she has she got in
the schools OF New York. A good
pupil al learn a lot in the schools Of
New York. There is a lot more that
can be learned after leaving school.
This girl stenographer learned some
thing every day. She studied her en-
~ployer's business, studied the methods
by which things were done and re-
tanned all the knowledge she obtained.
She was not content merely to tran
letters. Whenever she could make
herself useful at any other work, she
was eager to do it. First OF all, she
wanted to be a first-class stenogra-
pher. The more difficult the dictation
the better she liked It. Within two
years she could write SO fast steno-
graphically and SO accurately that she
was the pride Of the office.
1t is all very well to be a frst-class
stenographer, but s~tenography has its
limitations. She could not hope to get
more than $50 or $50 a week, regard
less Of how expert she became. She
wanted to fit herself for something
better. She had an idea that II she
became we'll grounded In business she
could tit herself for some really good
position. The New York university
has a department OF commerce, ac-
counts and finance which Is designed
to EQUIP students for the greatest use

went to the university and entered
this department. She studied COM

Business Housekeeper
of Wall Street.
ITS EFFICIENCY ENGINEER
She Tells Employers How to Minim-
ize Their Office Expenses and Get
Better Hesults-Some Unique
Employments.
BY RICHARD SPllLANE,

Wall street has something entirely
new, a business housekeeper. She calls
herself a visiting secretary, but visit
ing or business housekeeper more
nearly defines her work. In the home
Of The System" she is teaching sys-
tenn. She is q scientific Office oma
When a firm or a corporation finds it's
office force does not work we'll, or that
expenses are out Of all proportion to
the results achieved, she straightens
things out. What the efficiency engi-
neer who goes into a factory and, aft
er careful study. reports to the manu-
facturer what must be done to check
waste, she does for the banker, the
broker. the lawyer and the mining
No job is too big for her, and
no job too small. She has been in
Wall street long enough to know its
needs and he's had experience enough
to know how 20 meet those needs.
The business housekeeper is Mary
z. Shapiro. She went to the street
when she was Il slip Of a girl. She is
less than thirty now, but she says it
seems as if she has been in the finan-
ella district for ages. Most Of the
st~enographers down town or up town
are most happy when they have the
least to do. They chatter and gossip
and watch the clock rather than think
or ways and meal by which they
may serve their employers or improve

merce and sccounts and finance with
the deepest interest. She has a won-
derfully acute mind. The study fas-
cinated her, When she was graduated
she had learned as much as her teach
ers could impart to her.
She wanted to be thorough so she
was not content to work in only one
branch of Wall streets business. She
took various empoyments simply with
the idea Of getting experience and
knowledge. She worked for a banker
and she worked for a broker; then she
worked for a lawyer, then she worked
for a mining
Too Good for CIerkship.
A clever young woman learns faster
than a clever young man. and has q
better grasp Of detail. The men Miss
Shapiro worked for were delighted
with her services. They would have
been happy to have retained her as a
clerk. But she did not wish to remain
a clerk. She had a finer mind than
some of the men she worked for. and
a better grasp Of business. She thought
she might aspire to some official posi-.
ton, like secretary or assistant secre-
tary to a corporation. She knew she
had executive ability, and with her
skill at accounts and her fine grasp Of
correspondence and general business
she knew she could give good service.
Men who knew her capabilities praised
her highly, and declared she was one
of the brightest young women they
ever had found in the business field.
Praise is very pleasant, but when
there was a vacancy in a secretarial
position, and Miss Shapiro applied for
it, those who had the awarding Of the
position hemmed and hawed. They
would like to give it to her. they ac-
k~nowledged, but it never would do.
They had to have a man, they said.
To have a m in an official posi-.
ton would be unconventional. Bust.
ness is bound by convention. Some
day 1t may be different, but that day
is still distant.

Miss Shapiro had hopes Of attaining
her ambition after a while, but as time
went on and she saw no change, she
began to think OF other ways and
means Of improving her condition. She
kept her eyes open all the while. She
studied Offices and h studied bust
ness. She saw a lot OF waste and she

Fishing Notes

Anglers along the piers and in the
surf have been fishing in poor luck
during the week. The summer fish,
what there were OF them. have gone
and the big fellows that come in Sep
TENDER have not arrived, so the anglers
are marking time.
Fishing conditions along the Jersey
coast during the 1920 season have caus-
ed all name Of comment and specu-
Iation and many theories have been
advanced to account for the non-
appearance Of the members of the fnny
tribe. The most plausible Of these con-
Long, q Wildwood pound fisherman
Of many years experience. He con
tends that the cool August days and
nights and the northeast winds lowered
the temperature Of the water many
degrees below normal. This chilliness
of the sea prevented the growth of
messy or fungus sea weed, upon which
the fish feed, and having no feeding
grounds they forsook their usual cum
msr abode for the warmer waters.
