PARAMOUNT PEP 21 Call for Mr. Smith When our friend Bill Smith, District Manager of Philadelphia, Washington and WilkesBarre, was sojourning in Watkins Glen for his health recently, he became acquainted with Howard E. Branch, Editor of Grinnell Topics, the house organ of the Grinnell Company of Providence, R. I. Of course, our friend Bill did not realize that our friend Branch could shove a wicked pen on a cartoon and in consequence thereof, we are reproducing the latter’s conception of the former going thru the routine at this famous health resort. “Above are just a few illustrated pages from a diary I have been keeping while here,” says W. E. “There are some other pages not shown, and believe me, boy, they’re the goods. “Page 4 shows me taking what might be called a Fire Department drill, only it ain’t. Suffice to say the water is ice cold and then some. “The picture on page 8 does not show ime undergoing an operation, but is simply indicative of me taking a rub. “Doubtless the illustration on page 18 will make you think of bathin’ at Coronado. The only difference is that the limit of my ocean here is the edge of the bathtub instead of the continents that bound the Pacific.” Mr. Smith is now back on the job looking fine and feeling exceptionally well. Marion Brooks Married Hearty congratulations, best wishes, all the luck in the world, success, happiness, and everything that goes toward complimentary remarks are extended to Marion Brooks, Secretary to Jerome Beatty at our West Coast Studio. Miss Brooks relinquished the last part of her name in favor of McKinney and became the wife of Robert McKinney of our West Coast Studio. Miss Brooks was the recipient of many congratulations, both from the East and West Coast, for she was with Mr. Beatty at the Home Office for many years prior to Mr. Beatty’s transfer.

Ever heard about the woman who said: “There are about sixteen cases of flu in this church right now,” and the bootlegger’s wife who asked: “How many are there in a case?” On a Sunday Afternoon After the big show was over— the big show in this case being the moving of the New York Exchange to their new quarters — PEP'S cameraman caught H. H. Buxibaum, District Manager, and Tom Kilfoil, Special Representative, in a restful mood and believe me, they needed it, for as stated before in PEP, the moving of this exchange was an achievement in the one hundred per cent class in every respect.
