Mack tit I TfiiOf' -i ACAD IS MM With a substantlp.l Iftcrease over the opening ' attendance last year the doors of the Pendleton academy swung open Monday and work In that school is novy- under way, says a Pendleton paper. For the opening the enroll ment records show that 15 more stu dents matriculated than upon the opening day a year ago. Because of the good attendance and general bright prospect for the school. President Bleakney and other mem bers of the faculty are well pleased. Koontz hall Is now entirely filled,, and Brown Hall, the boys' dormitory, Is filling up more rapidly than was ex pected. Last year the total attendance at the academy wai 107 and If pres ent prospects continue this figure will be easily passed this year. At the Presbyterian church Mon day evening the annual convocation address was . delivered the academy students by Rev. S. W. Seemann, of La Grande. It was an inspiring ad dress. " .

SCHOOL LI Pendleton. Kept. 17. The East Ore- xonlun siiyn: KailH-nl changes in the present school laws of the state are der-lred by the county superintendents and at the mcftlii Jnxt held at Solern their Ideas were freely dlsciihscd. At tin coming session or the legislature an effort will be made to have t least some of the new ideas enacted Into law. The most radical thing proposed lit the meeting, according to Superin tendent Frank K. Welles, who cam home last evening, l a plan whereby the county Is miule the unit lor nil the districts contained therein. I'n di r this plan the county superintend ent Is to be elected by a school board on the same plan a city superintend ent now serves and all the county school affair are to be directed from one general head. uch a plan would make the county superintendent a school man Instead of an office man. However, this Idea will not be pre sented to the legislature this year as the superintendents believe that the people are not yet ready for the change. This notice has been pouted by the chief of police of OiH-an City: "All owners of doss ivfuse to pay aid taxes within 10 days from th time he or she shall be notified, shall be killed by the said officer according to ordinance." mm 1 W THE SCENIC ProprVtor and Manager.
