P(if;e Nine of Pep-O-Grums NEW ADMINISTRATION’S PROGRESS MOVES Executives at Club Meetings. Powerful Advisory Committee Named. Hour of Meeting Changed. Group Insurance Announcement An irresistible impetus has been given the new Administration's activities in the preliminary announcement of President Frawley's plans. These announcements are undeniably a forecast that the Paramount-Pep Club intends to stride forward to the greatest heights of purposeful achievement in its history. One radical change effected by the President has been the alteration of the hour of meeting to noon instead of five o’clock. This change is effective with today’s meeting. The outstanding feature of this meeting is the fact that the Club members will be addressed by the Club’s Honorary President and Life Member, Mr. Adolph Zukor. His message to the Pepsters will be on “Organization.” He is the first of a succession of speakers: next month Mr. Lasky will speak, then there will be addresses by Mr. Kent, Mr, E, E. Shauer, Mr. Katz, Mr. Kohn and Mr. Ludvigh. This development of the Club’s activity is in line with the desire of the organization’s chief executives to come in more frequent contact with the Club’s members. For our part, we know that we are signally honored, and we know that we shall profit immeasurably from the wisdom we shall have imparted to us. The Club also has a priceless heritage in the new Advisory Committee, which comprises the Honorary President and Honorary Vice Presidents (already named), and in addition the Honorary Chairman of the Board of Governors, Eugene J. Zukor. These executives are available at all time for consultation on major matters of policy in the conduct of the Club’s affairs, and will contribute to our guidance a wealth of vision and spiritual balance such as no other Club of a similar nature in the world possesses. A vital announcement to be made on this occasion will outline a superb Group Insurance scheme, whereby it will be possible for all Club members, at the cost of but a few cents a payday, to allay a lot of fearsome worries on the point of caring for their loved ones in the event of illness, accident or death. This Group Insurance will be but the first of a series of striking and practical Club developments to be announced by President Frawley. It is thus most plain to see that right from the outset the new administration of the Paramount-Pep Club gets away to a sparkling start. Growing Up “What did mamma’s little boy learn at school today?” “I learned two kids not to call me mamma’s little boy.” ISSUE DATE OE PEP-O-GRAMS CHANGED Heretofore, Pep-O-Grams has always appeared— or been timed to api)car — on the day of the regular monthly meeting. From now on, however — and commencing with the December issue — it will appear on the First of the month, along with tlic bills. When it appeared on Meeting Da}' it was in-eclnded from ever telling anything about the meeting. It could not carry the news about July’s meeting in the August issue, because by the time it came out its readers would be absorbed in what was taking place at the August meeting. .So you wdll now have the pleasure of the tlirill of the Meeting, and the additional thrill of reading about it when it is reflected in the pages of Pep-O-Grams two weeks later. Contributors please note this change of indrlication date, and so time your news that it will still be news on the first of the month succeeding that month in which it is written. STARS TO ATTEND PARAMOUNTPEP CLUB MEETINGS Plans for making the regular monthly meetings of the Club as near perfect as is hnmanly possible are certainh' being carried to glorious heights by President Frawley. The Club’s chief executiye now announces that wheneyer a Paramount star happens to be in town on the day of the meeting, and is ayailable, he, or she, will personally appear on the platform to greet the assembled members. Surely nothing could be finer than that! A WONDER WEALTH OE ENTERTAINMENT EOR NINETEEN TWENTY-NINE Word comes from the Entertainment Committee, which is under the Chairmanship of that unexcelled humorist, A. M. Botsford, with Russell Holman as Vice Chairman, that there are some truly splendid plans under way for entertaining you all during this coming Club year. Their almost immediate announcing will undoubtedly add a measure of zest to your Thanksgiving.
