We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

PLOTS WANTED FOR MOTION PICTURE PLAYS YOU CAN WRITE THEM We Teach You by Mail in Ten Easy Lessons. This is the Original Correspondence School in Photoplay Writing. Established 1910 — the oldest, the largest and the most successful.* Endorsed by Film Manufacturers, Scenario Editors, and the Literary and M. P. trade journals. IF YOU GO INTO THIS WORK, GO INTO IT RIGHT! Six months from now more than 600 scenarios will be purchased monthly. This is a greater number than that of the short stories used by ALL the American weekly and monthly magazines during a similar period ! How will this increased demand be supplied? It can only be filled by those who know how to prepare the plays. YOU can learn how. But you cannot learn by guessing, by reading a small pamphlet of instructions, by perusing a sample scenario, nor by taking a "course" of three lessons. The manufacturers are flooded with manuscripts from people who feel such "instruction" to be sufficient. Needless to say, such manuscripts bring forth rejection slips and not checks. Your actual original work must be directed, criticised, analyzed and corrected. This is the only school that delivers such service and the proof of the correctness of our methods lies in the success of our graduates. THEY ARE SELLING THEIR PLAYS ! ! !
