am I Ml ON piCTUBF MAGAZINE... L Plioibplay batiks to ine Palmer 1 ; Plant JTIere's a letter from one of our students — just as it came to our desk the other day. And it says more for the Palmer Plan of Photoplay Writing than anything ive could say: ' 'Though I am sure my spoken expressions of gratitude convinced you of my appreciation of the splendid and satisfying service and assistance I have been so fortunate as to receive through the Palmer Plan, I must add a written word of thanks. Your cheque for my photoplay synopsis, 'Prince Toby', which you have just sold for me to Mr. Douglas Fairbanks for $5°° was a most welcome present, I assure you. "As 'Prince Toby' is my first photoplay to be accepted, I am more than happy to make the statement that, in my humble opinion, the Palmer Plan and its Manuscript Sales Department are superlatively efficient and quite invaluable to proven writers as well as to those who would be such." Most appreciatively, Rodney Hynson, Pasadena, California 1 Name u St. and No. City and State. Palmer Photoplay Corp. 734 I. W. Hellman Bldg. Los Angeles, California. Please send me, without obligation, your new booklet, "The Secret of Successful Photoplay Writing."

For, if you have any creative imagination at all, the Palmer Plan cannot help but show you the guide-posts that lead to success as a photoplay writer. Never was there a greater demand for good photoplay stories; never such an opportunity for trained photoplay writers. Producers are paying $500 to $1000 for five-reel dramatic scripts — $50 to $250 for clever short comedies. The studios around Los Angeles alone require thousands of new stories each year. Don't you see how the Palmer Plan will help you earn some of this extra money? It is I A ONLY Pfadicalltai And not alone because <we say so; but because — it has been written "out of the day's work" by Frederick Palmer, a recognized master of photoplay construction — the man who in 9 months wrote 52 accepted scenarios for "Universal". The Palmer Plan is NOT a mere book nor a "school' ' nor a tiresome correspondence course. It is exactly what it professes to be: a concise, clean-cut plan that places at your finger-tips the fundamentals of photoplay technique. It is the first plan of photoplay instruction that shows you by direct example how to prepare your stories in the action-language of the screen. It is the first plan of its kind to receive the enthusiastic, whole-hearted indorsement of the foremost pv ->ducers, stars, directors and scenario editors in America. More than this — it is the only method of photoplay training that carries you all the way through — from primary instruction on to Personal Advisory Service and then on to Marketing Service.
