lingering impression that stars and
directors, whose incomes. in many in

dispelled by the enthusiastic Coop

only thing required was action--and
lots Of custard pies and chases! Then
people demanded a story. The nrst

was Mary Pickford's Ramona end
her name wasn't even announced on

realization of all that could be done
with this new means of reaching the
people.
After the public had been siven

People didn't ask for stars Just out
OF hero worship. Not bit of it!
They wanted them because II meant
that at least one or two roles in each
picture must be convincingly acted

adequately done.
