UMATILLA RAPIDS MEETING
SHOWS PROJECT FEASIBLE
At the meeting of the Umatilla
Rapids association in Pendleton Mon
day J. N. Teal was elected president
in place of Judge Phelps who felt
that he couldn't spare the time to
serve longer and no amount of urging
could change his mind. Mr. Teal,
however, will make an able executive
for the associathion as he has for
long been a champion of the open riv
er Portland was represented with
one delegateand he was represent
ing the Journal. Spokane, Walla
Walla and all the towns around here
were represented.
The engineer in charge of the in
vestigation of the dam site made a
very encouraging report uon the fea
sibility of the undertaking and Con
gressman Sinnott gave the associa
renewed hope of favorable govern
mental action once the project comes
up in congress and every indication
is that the investigations will prove
all that is claimed.
This project will cost less and will
produce more electric power than i
Muscle Shoals, says Senator McNary. '
The railroads see the ultimate saving
in electrification, drawing a lesson
from the Milwaukee. The electric
light and power companies see in
creased business from the settlement I
of the barren acres thru which their
lim now pass, says Mr. McArthur
of the -Pacific Power & Light Co.
The harnessing of the Columbia at
the Umatilla rapids means more farm
homes, factories, cheaper juice, river
transportation in competition with
the railroads and cheaper freight
rates, and cheap power and light.
A. L. Larsen has traded his ranch
in the East End, called Gradatim
Homestead, to Mr. Calkins of Leba
non, Ore., for a ranch down there.
Mr. Calkins is the father of C. C.
Calkins, our former county agent.
Mr. Calkins and wife came up Tues

The school board voted to adop'
the plan of selling meal tickets for
the cafeteria. These tickets are to
be sold in advance to the purcha li l
for $1 0(1 On each ticket are num
bers representing nickels and pen

The pupil is allowed the choice of
three things:
1. Purchase a ticket in advance for
$1.00.
2. Bring the money for the lunch
each day.
3. Bring his own lunch.
In this way only is it possible for
the cafeteria to meet Its bills for
supplies at the stores. Thus far
these bills amount to $80.00 while
the amount collected for lunches if

"The Covered Wagon"
Every character in "The Covert d
Wagon" which comes to the Rivoli
theatre, Pendleton, for two nights
beginnig Wednesday, Nov. 7th, is a
real human being. Each represents
the pride of American manhood and
womanhood of pre-goid discovery
days in California. Some are bad
others indifferent but the majority
are of noble texture, staunch and
true. It is these human qualities
which make the story of this tre
mendous production tense, appeal
ing and wonderfully effective as a
Teen entertainment.
Tills motion picture masterpiece
was taken from Emerson Hough's
: eat novel of the "wagon days" and
the characters and scenes are faith
fully transferred from the book to
the screen. No important detail is
left out you will find all the grip
ping interest of the book m the
photoplay and you will see the pic
torial beauty of landscape with the
even of the hardy argonauts as they
trudged beside the ox teams on the
2 000 mile Journey from Westport to
Oregon. You will share with them
their grief, joys, pains, homesickness
and the pleasures around the camp
lire al night, and you will thrill and
theer al their heroic defense of their
v omen and Children from the attacks
of the Indiana, You win sit en
tranced when you see 500 "cov
ed wagons'" fording a swollen
river with hundreds of oxen and
.orses swimming vigorously lor the
'istant. shore. All these scenes en
thrall the spectator, for It unfolds
lat part of our nalonal life with
which few of this generation are fa
lliar except thru the printed page.
"The Covered Wagon" was produced
on a tremendous scale and thous
ands of people , horses, oxen, mules
and buffalo were concerned in its
making. Aside from its magnitude
as shown upon the screen there Is a
symphony orchestrt of 20, and a
musical score which charms the ear,
adding to, ai d enhancing the pic
torial beauty of the offering.
