Co-op Florists Collect With Kay Francis Rose!
We recommend for the warm summer months —a Kay Francis bouquet! All you need is a cooperating florist and a couple of ideas. Here’s the way to go about it: Sell the flower-vendor the idea of plugging either a Kay Francis bouquet, or a Kay Francis rose. He supplies the flowers—you do the rest. Get as many of the blooms as possible for your lobby. A credit card will satisfy the dealer and give you a fragrant, cool-looking lobby.
Give him stills and blow-ups for window and counter. Give him mats for his newspaper ads. Try to promote a ‘Kay Francis rose’ for every woman attending an appointed matinee. It’s not a prohibitive cost for the dealer, and he gets plenty of credit for his investment. And you—you get plenty, too.
From your newspaper morgue or from experience, you ean cull plenty of interesting stories concerning exploits of women _ doctors. Play up the angle that Kay Francis is a woman doctor, Dr. Monica, and that these other sagas show the trouble facing professional gals. An interesting news break can be worked up with a little ingenuity.

For Wamen Only
If you’ve had any success with ‘women only’ matinees, then go for one on this picture. Announce a chance for the women to get together without having the men-folks around. As an added indueement, have a prominent woman physician down, to answer any intimate questions, including those relating to the picture. Promote tea, cookies, and let them have a real, catty time.
