Foreword 9 inspiration must be drawn. It seems pertinent to add that no existing work on the writing of photoplays, except the author's, has furnished any of the material used in this book. To those not specifically mentioned who may have in any manner aided or contributed to this work, the author extends his gratitude. The proof of the pudding lies in the eating; and to that proof the author now consigns this book, hopeful that it will find its way to the bookshelves for which it is intended. HOWARD T. DIMICK
