"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.
