Paramount Pep-O-Grams (1927)

Page Six P E P-O-G RAMS VITAL MATTERS DISCUSSED BY WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE A vitally important meeting of the Ways and Means Committee was held in the 12th Floor Projection Room on the evening of Monday, December 19th. Leon M. Saveli, who was temporary chairman of the committee pending the reLeon M. Saveli turn from illness of Morris Simpson, presided. The business consisted of the rendering of reports by the members of the committee, these reports consisting of practical plans for the conducting of the club on the soundest possible financial basis during 1928. Many excellent schemes were propounded and debated, with the final findings assembled for laying befor the Board of Governors. YOU MUST HAVE DONE YOUR SHARE IN THIS RED CROSS SUCCESS Throughout the month of November last, the ParamountPep Club, under the captainship of Lillian Stevens, conducted the Eleventh Annual Roll Call of the American Red Cross. There was a most spirited response to the appeal directed by Miss Stevens, Lillian Stevens with the result that a very substantial sum of money was handed over to W. Breese Evans, Roll Call Director. Following this action, the Paramount-Pep Club is in receipt of the Red Cross Association’s Certificate of Appreciation for $271.80. This was a very practical piece of work on the part of the Club, for not only does it give member a sense of satisfaction in having done something worthy, but it also brings added prestige to our organization. THE GLAD HAND IS OUT AGAIN Chairman J. A. Philipson, of the Membership Committee, reports the Club’s gladsome acceptance of the following new members at the Club’s last general meeting: Benjamin H. Serkowich, Isidore Atterman, Ray Eckerson, Pauline Gilbert, . Sidney Feinberg, Herbert Levitan, L J. Cushing, Marion E. Johnson, Helen C. Gershon, Kenneth Long, Myriam L. Isaacs, Harold A. Joffe, Mildred Ch ere skin. May they have long and happy associations with us, attend all of the Club meetings, do their bit towards contributing to Pep-OGrams, and generally feel that in being members of the great Paramount organization they have taken unquestionably one of the greatest steps in their lives. A NOTICE TO ALL PEPSTERS From Irene F. Scott (Chairman, Educational Committee) “You can send a boy to school but you can’t make him think. The Educational Committee is doing all it can at the moment to further the interest of the Club members in the Dancing Class being at present held at the John Murray Anderson School. If this is not a success it is your own fault. The School has been fair and square in its dealings and shows every intention of furthering the interests of the Pep Club members in so far as it is consistent with its financial interests. If you are interested in this work go to it. “Don’t forget the Parlimentary Procedure class that is going to be conducted by Mr. Alvin Freisinger. Every member, both men and women, should not only be anxious, but should be eager to familiarize himself with the proper procedure for conducting meetings of clubs and other similar organizations. “The Speed Class is intended to help those whoi have a knowledge of stenography but who through lack of practice and continual use find that speed is becoming a thing of memory. All those who want to keep up their speed come in and work.” ANOTHER SUPER-BUSY TIME COMING THEY ALSO CONTRIBUTE. Among the contributors whose offerings carry no indications of where they come from, are the Pepsters who supply these columns with the jokes and other pieces of humor you find scattered here and there. These items are not “fillers” : they are designed to give you lighter moments in contrast with the heavy technicalities which you might find in Pep-OGrams. We therefore acknowledge our thanks to the reporters supplying this humor ; and we further invite other members to send along their pet jokes — provided they haven't been pets for too long. (From one of these contributors.) Why will a woman almost risk her life to buy a bargain, but feel insulted if you suggest that she’s wearing one? As sure as the calendar is what it is, there is another plus-ultra superbusy time coming for Judge Frawley — and that time is none other than the annual Spring Convention. This mammoth event is looming closer every day, and its coming means the sorting and systemizing of at least a million details, all of which have to be blended with his manifold everyday duties. Well, Judge, you have at least our moral support in the big job. Count us in on anything else, too. Judge Frawley
