THE EVENING WUKMD, ¥ “The Way to Get Along Is the Way to Get Along With Him Uptown,” Says Miss Spencer— “Men Are All Big Ba- bies and Have to Be Studied.” By Nixola Greeley-Smith. If you want to see one of the most Perfect blends of intelligence and charm to be found within our city gates, do find some excuse for consulting the H- = brary of the Na- 4. tional Clty Bank Ya. and ask for Miss \ Florence Spencer, f Worartan, My quest for the woman Murari, of New York bu iness took mo to Miss Spencer y terday afternoon, and I am still rather breathless from the shock of her unexpectedness. Iam sure you don't think of a bank Nbrarian as a tall, beautifully slender young woman with the creamy com- plexion of a camelia and the simple dignity of an Austrian archduchess, Iam sure I never hoped to find any thing so ulert and alive and alight with a rippling humor as Miss Spencer tn the great fortress of fi- nance at No, 65 Wall Street. Miss Spencer's job—one of the most important held by a woman in the downtown district—1s to supervine the National City Bank's filing sys- tem of bonds and mortgages and to direct its library force, a dry task one would think for a young woman who looks as If she belonged on per- petual horseback as the horoine of a novel of out of doors.
