Glancine down the alphabetical list of "Who's Who" in the Successful Women in Business in Birmingham, !" you'll find when you get to the MS" the good old Scotch name of "Macl1voy."
 That in itself spells Interest" be- cause the Scotch are interesting, the Scotch are clever, the Scotch are ambitious. and the Scotch are enar- getic, and at once you declare in your mind a keen desire to know some thing about young woman by she name of "MacEvoy," who has achieved an enviable position in the business world of the Magic City and so you begin to investigate.
 Her first name you discover Is Belle and that sounds encouraging because somehow girls named Belle" and Kate" and Mary and Sue" always seem to be the right sort, '" not the ''flapper" variety of whom Gellett Burgess in inimitable sar- casm declares are the bright par- tieular lights of Profane History" bearing such pseudonyms as Kitty and Ruby" and Dolly" and Pearl"
 So much for so much
 We've got q good old fashioned surname for our heroine Belle" at
 
 name "MacEvoy," and that being set tied the plot" will now be developed
 At 12 Stock Girl
 On the first floor of Drennen's de- partment store you'll find Miss Belle" as she is familiarity known to the hundreds of people who frequent the big emporium, as busy as bee every working hour there is in the day.
 More than that-you'n find that she keeps everybody else busy in the six departments of which she is the manager and the buyer, for it is to her that the management of the big store looks for results and knowing this, she realizes that team work" is the only thing that counts.
 Besides Miss Belle% believes in giving the other fellow" a chance sort of a Judge Gary motto; Live and let live" and consequently she is not trying to "hog" as they say in common parlance, "the game" and take everything unto herself.
 Honesty, that's the keynote of success" Miss Belle said when I asked her to name the foundation stone on which her successful bus mess career has been founded. ";f you are not honest with yourself, your employers and your customers, then there's no hope for success
 By honesty, I mean honest in sell ing; honest in buying; honest in do- ing your duty. Of course a girl must have ability; that goes without say ing; and an education too, but that is denied to so many girls who must work and of course they suffer this handicap and must overcome 1t if possible.'
