FOR OPENING...
Stage a Santa Fe Trail ‘western’ costume affair. Folks come in costume of the time, rough western dress, army uniforms, and crinoline dresses, in cowboy rigouts, etc. Prizes are awarded for best costumes, presented on the stage with the winners selected by audience applause. Be sure the papers are on hand for shots and stories of the winner.

Nothing like a touch of comedy
EXHIBITION ON WHEELS...
Promote a trailer from your local agency and convert it into a travelling museum. Inside are exhibited old newspapers mentioning
events in the film, pictures, relics, photos of picture characters as they looked in life and as they are portrayed in the film, and general material of the era. A couple of loud speakers and outside panels carrying ‘‘come-on” copy draw the public inside.
Now is the time to hold a “Handle bar’
mustache contest
FOR RIDERS & DRIVERS . . .
A saddle horse in western regalia is tethered to a parking meter. Copy on the saddle
blanket reads: ‘My driver went to the Strand Theatre to see ‘Santa Fe Trail’.’”’ No horses? . .No meters? . . . Well, switch the idea to auto parking tags reading: “Driver went to the Strand Theatre to see ‘Santa Fe Trail’.”
