STATE THEATRE

“HEAD OVER HEELS.” “Head Over Heels,” starring Jess'ie Matthews will be shown finally at the State Theatre to-night at 7.45. Reserves at F. J. Adcock’s, ’phone 1275. COMING TO-MORROW. TWO BIG ATTRACTIONS. Action, international intrigue and romance in generous portions keep Paramount’s “The Girl From Scotland Yard,” one of the two attractions showing at the State Theatre to-mor-row at 2.15 and 7.45 p.m., moving at a swift pace. The picture has plenty of thrills, some excellent comedy, and a flavouring of music. The_ story presents Karen Morley in the title role as an agent who uses her beauty and wit to trap the inventor of a death ray who threatens to destroy England’s air force with his invention. Miss Morley is assisted in tracking down the 'inventor by Robert Baldwin, an American newspaper man who gets involved in the intrigue when he falls in love with the beautiful secret agent. The second feature, Paramount’s “Her Husband Lies,” a drama of a lie that had to be told, shows Gail Patrick and Ricardo Cortez in the leading roles. The story concerns Cortez, a big-time gambler whose wife, Miss Patrick, gives him the alternative of giving up gambling or losing her. He gives her his word that he is through with cards, and the climax arrives when he is forced to go back on his word in order to save his younger brother and square himself with his erstwhile associates.
