Paramount Pep-O-Grams (1928)

Page Eleven of Pep-O-Grams A GIRL IS BORN From October 25th onward, Mr. and Mrs. Leonard J. Cushing have been receiving congratulations on their elevation to the ranks of Parenthood. A little girl brought them the honor. Mr. Cushing is a member of Mr Kent’s staff in the Home Office. SOLITAIRE Helen Fine is the proud possessor of a beautiful solitaire ring presented to her on October 27th by William Weiss. The entire Paramount-Pep Club I extends congratulations to 1 Helen and William. SLENDERIZING Hast heard that Sadye Gartner Innerfield of Film Rental fame has gone gymnastic? Yes, it’s true. In an effort to attain sylph-like proportions, the dazzling charmer has gone in heavily for physical culture. Poor Sadye ! C’EST L’AMOUR? It might not be considered as clever journalism to say anything about a co-reporter, but j we are desperate for News, so here goes. Inniss Dionysius Atj well almost collided with a taxi ' this noon. We can only draw one conclusion when a man like Inniss, usually so cautious and I reserved, gets reckless. It 1 must be love ! CASH COMBAT I There has been an abrupt ces‘ sation of combat in the strenu' ous Cash Receipts Civil War. We expect, however, that it I will break out shortly — just as I soon as the opposing factions select their captain. PUBLIX STATISTIX Congratulations have been extended to Mr. Plunkett, recently appointed head to the Publix Statistical department. It is noted in this department that Rose Kirsch has lost her pal, Frances Sadlier. who has been transferred to the ninth floor front. Besse Decker has been in high spirits of late. And m wonder (writes our correspondent), with a coat like Bess has. ^allp J^obak November 2, 1928 The Sunshine of Her Smile Will Live Whilever Memory Does. EDERLE-ISH “Swim, Girl, Swim” seems to be the “main issue” to Peg O’Connor these days. From the way she has been vigorously practising at the Park Central Pool, it has been whispered about, that she is to be the first girl to swim the Antarctic Ocean. FOGGY Must the tales about the ferry boat on which one travels every morning necessarily be “ferry tales”? As Myrtle Ainscough has been defending the question ever since her first day at Paramount, we’re sure she knows all the pro’s and con’s on the subject. OVERHEARD That Scott Lett and the Law have run amuck! Which proves conclusively that even a person as socially prominent as Scott cannot defy the Law, That the Ninth Floor wishes Miss Opdyke a speedy recovery. We know she’ll be back with us soon. That Ruth Jacobs has clinched the marathon dance derb^d No one woidd doubt it after seeing her monopoly of the sterner sex on October 18th. Elmer — “Do you talk in your sleep?” Roy — “No; my wife says I’m perfectly exasperating — I only smile!” — The Pathfinder. A woman may be taken for granted, but she never goes without saying. — Wall Street Journal. EUROPEW ARDS Mr. A. J. Michel, accompanied by Mrs. Michel, sailed for Europe on the Berengaria on October 31st. He expects to visit France, England, Germany and Holland, particularly in connection with business matters in France and England. COAST-TO-COAST George S. Reinhardt who resumed his connection with the Audit Department last summer, after an absence of more than two years spent on the West Coast, was recently joined in New York by his wife and family who made the trip East by automobile, Mr. Reinhardt in a spirit of adventure chose the transcontinental bus as his means of transportation and most highly recommends this mode to those inflicted with insomnia, provided they are amply protected by accident and life insurance. ‘PLASTERED!’ J. E. McDermott of the Audit Department has returned to his desk after a summer spent in Paris, or rather plaster of paris, following an injury to his ankle sustained while playing tennis. We are pleased to report that at the present writing he has been able to discard his cane and resume his eighteen holes of golf. (But don’t let his Doctor see this.) DING-DONG Friday is the day on which most States “bump off” their undesirable guests. It may be only coincidence, but the future Mrs. Monty Gowthorpe chose Friday, November 2 as the day for the demise of Monty’s long years of bachelor freedom. From then on he must account for twenty-four hours a day instead of the customary seven. The entire Audit Department, with whom Mr. Gowthorpe was formerly associated, extend their heartiest good wishes to Mr. and Mrs. Gowthorpe and the more experienced married members are glad to place at his disposal a complete stock of alibis to cover every need.
