Summary
One of the greatest photoplays ever made will be the popular verdict when the motion picture public sees James Cruze's Paramount production, 'The Covered Wagon,' which will be the feature at both the Coronet and World Theatres today. Perfect realism, a strong love theme, tremendous dramatic actions; all these facts, coupled with the splendid cast of virtually 3,000 men and women, certainly indicate a picture that is worthy of enthusiasm. Film plot included.
