P E P-O-G RAMS Page Five E. E. SHAUER SENDS THANKS FRANK MEYER ALSO THANKFUL CHERBOURG, Aug. 6: The following message has been received here from Mr. E. E. Shauer, general manager of the foreign department of Paramount Famous Lasky Corporation, for forwarding to Vincent Trotta, president of the ParamountPep Club of the same organization : "The wonderful fruit placed on board the Aquitania by you duly received. J hanks to you and the Pep Club for your unfailing thoughtfulness. We are having a fine crossing. (sgd.) E. E. Shauer.” PLEASE KNOW THIS We are aware of the fact that some of the Pep Club members mentioned on this page have returned from Europe by the time these lines appear. The lapse of more than a month since the last issue of Pep-O-Grams is responsible for this. But the circumstances warranted mention, and the members who read Pep O Grams would be the last persons in the world to deny this fact. GOING AND COMING Lillian Grossman, secretary to Mr. E. J. Ludvigh, recently returned from a very pleasant vacation spent in Europe. NEARING FRANCE, Aug. 6: It is reported that the following message has today been despatched by Frank Meyer, general purchasing manager of Paramount Famous Lasky Corporation, addressed to Vincent Trotta at the Crossroads of the World in New York City : “Dear Trotta— Many thanks to you and the Pep Club for cheering me along. The trip so far is marvelous. Regards to you all. (sgd.) Frank Meyer.” WORD FROM W. B. COKELL ON BOARD S. S. “NEW AMSTERDAM, Aug. 3: Mr. Vincent Trotta, President; and Members of the Paramount-Pep Club. Greetings and many thanks conveyed to both of us by radio. I recommend this steamer to the Club for a picnic and would guarantee that each one would gain at least ten pounds because of the delicious food served. Shall look forward to seeing all of you again in a month. Best wishes from Mrs. Cokell and me. (sgd.) W. B. Cokell.” Jack Roper went to Europe for his vacation. Martin Rosenfeld, of the Foreign Accounting Department, is in Europe on a vacation. Agnes Mengel was in Europe on a vacation. SUMMER WEDDINGS SET N The past two weeks have seen a minimum of three additions to the ranks of the benedicts reported to us from within the roster of the Paramount-Pep Club. Bill Lawrence, of the Real Estate Department, selected August 30th to be henceforth the second most important day in his life. Arthur Dunne, of the Accounts Department, chose the month of September for EW PARAMOUNT FASHION general preference, and the 3rd of the month for particular preference. William Fass, of the Traffic Department, says that his second most memorable day will be September 9th. His bride is a former Paramounteer, Helen Goering, and a former member of the Traffic Department. Pep-O-Grams is mighty happy to pass along to the three happy couples the wholehearted congratulations of the ParamountPep Club membership. * Chinese Thoughts About Women The patient woman roasts an ox with a burning glass. The extravagant woman burns a candle in looking for a match. The foolish, obstinate woman goes to sea in a bandbox. The cautious woman writes her promises on a slate. The vulgar, affected woman is a spider attempting to spin silk. The curious woman would turn a rainbow to see what was on the other side. — Boston Transcript. CONVALESCING AT CANNES “Dick” Blumenthal, writing from the sunlit sands of Cannes, whither he had gone to convalesce from his Paris bout with diphtheria, asks Pep-O-Grams to convey his heartfelt thanks to all of those members who both wrote him and inquired about his health. Cabled reports, supplementing his letter, state that “Dick” has now practically recovered his health and will shortly be back at his desk in the Paramount Theatre, Paris, as assistant to Melville A. Shauer. These reports were further added by the verbal reports of Mr. E. E. Shauer, who arrived back in New York on September 7th in company with Frank Meyer.
