A specially prepared excerpt from the Warner Brothers production giving a brief survey of some of the difficulties encountered by Florence Nightingale in establishing her humane work. May be rented only for educational purposes, with which an admission is charged. The weekly rental is $6.

Florence Nightingale (Kay Francis) decides to become a nurse, puzzling her upper-class family. When she returns home, however, no one is willing to employ her. When the Crimean War breaks out, she finally gets her chance. Her fame is spread by the newspapers, and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow writes a poem in her honor.
