The business career of Sally, christened Sarah, Sprague started many years before many young girls know what the business world is. "While most young girls are considered flappers and nuisances and the like Sally was considered one of the most Important members of her household because she was bringing In one-fourth of the twenty-eight dollars, which was handed to Mrs. Sprague every Saturday night. Sally was only sixteen years old but that did not keep her from getting a permit to stop school and go to work. She was doing general office work in a large department store and getting the munificent sum of seven dollars a week for it. After a few months at the store she saw an advertisement in the paper which said ten dollars a week would be paid for a filing clerk and experience was not required. Sally applied and started in to work the next day In the filing department of a large construction company. v It was her dally task to file blue prints of the different Jobs the concern was handing. The blue prints fascinated Sally and she soon grew to know the meanings of all the lines and symbols and to visualize the completed Job. She remained in the file room about a year and then because of her interest in the drafting end of the work she asked to be given a chance at the drawing board. Her request was not seriously considered at first, but after she persisted in her efforts she was finally given a place in the drafting department. Waa Made Assistant. She progressed rapidly and worked on the board for about a year and a half. At the end of that time she had proved to all of the "doubting Thomases" that she was a successful draftsman or, to be literal, drafts-woman and the firm, to show that they realized her worth, made her assistant to the head draftsman. Sally, of course, was pleased with herself, but she was cot satisfied. Her next step in the construction company was taken up luring, her
spare time. She used every minute she had making estimates. It was not long before the firm needed hr in this capacity and she was allowed to make estimates for small orders at first, and later this twerfty-year-old miss was making most of the estimates, even for the most Important contracts which came into the office.
She became very competent in this i
branch of the work and was not only accurate but she was quick. Made Head Estimator. Then the head estimator left and Sally was taken from the rather mediocre job of assitant in the draftingroom and made head estimator. She was the only girl holding such a position it was claimed by her firm and they were positive that she was the youngest. Of course Sally's rise was not due to a mere haphazard completion of her alloted work in the regulation right hours. She spent many nights laboring over drawings with the Tsquare and the compass before she mastered the technical points of drafting and she spent hours in the library studying up on drafting and other subjects connected with her work. She read up about steel, lumber, and plate glass and the like and she spent many extra hours studying the workings of her own plant and out on jobs with the construction men. She took her work seriously and she found that sh enjoyed it manyfold after she really understood it all. At the Top at 25. Her climb to the top was not halted by the position of head estimator. It seems that the chief engineer was impressed with her and when he needed an assistant in his department he asked to have Miss Sally Sprague give it a try. Sally, of course, was always eager for new things and each new thing meant a step upwards in her case. She was only too glad to accept his offer
and now she is assistant to the chief engineer and has been taken into the firm as well. Despite her very responsible position she is still a very young woman, not yet past that fatal twenty-five mark arid her salary is between five and six thousand a year, a considerable sum for so young a woman to be earning. It has taken her nine years to reach her present position and each year eeemed to mark an advance towards something better and each new work she tried she completed successfully only to go on to something more vital and more unusual. Sally Sprague has paved the way for women in her concern and she has set a precedent by getlng equal pay for equal work. She has a reputation wherever her concern is known as a keen business woman and a capable one.
