STATE THEATRE
“MEXICAN SPITFIRE OUT WEST.” “Mexican Spitfire Out West” together with the other features will be finally shown tonight. “GONE WITH THE WIND’ UP.” Clever farce and riotous comedy are seen in the Gaumont-British Dominions production “Gone With the Wind, Up,” made under the title of “Gasbags.” which will be shown tomorrow night. At the head of a numerous cast appears the Crazy Gang, composed of Jimmy Nervo, Teddy Knox, Bud Flanagan, Chesney Allen, Charlie Naughton and Jimmy Gold. The gang are shown as members of the balloon barrage, who incur the wrath of the authorities by running a fish and chip stall on the sly and advertising their business on the side of the balloon they are supposed to be minding. Ihey are ordered to disengage the balloon, but a gale of wind which springs up carries off the balloon, the top of the stall and the Crazy Gang with it. Their precarious journey ends when they land on the Western Front and, seeing a line of Frencn troops marching toward them, they joyfully fall in at the head, not knowing that the French are followed by Germans who have captured them. Their subsequent adventures provide humorous entertainment.
