"flow / Did It" their work in their desire to turn out a story that will bring results, must not become dis- couraged if it is returned. The producer may have a very good reason for rejecting it. One producer may like the story very much, but perhaps he hasn't a star to fit the role. Another may turn it down because it would cost more money to produce than he is in a position to spend. A third may return it be- cause it is not the particular type of story he wants to produce. Some producers like stories dealing with domestic problems; others prefer all-star productions, wherein there are a number of strong roles; others want "spe- cials," without featuring any particular actor or actress, while others want big spectacles. If the aspirant is thin-skinned and easily dis- couraged, then it is better he put an end to his ambitions as far as the screen is concerned, and take up some other line of work.
