Pendloton, Sept. 11; With a brand new suit of clothes or a new red sweater Pendleton's school population flocked to the various school buildings this morning for tho first time for three months. Most- of the children seemed happy to return to their stu dies but here and there a boy or girl went to greet his teacher with a sheepish expression. ' Many children will not enroll for the fall term until after, the Round Up. The grade schools were well filled however, this morning. Today is 'being taken up with the teacher's getting acquainted with' the pupils. Tomorrow the real work of the year will commence. ' The teachers report the largest opening day attendance ever. At the high school the attendance will bo al most 300. By noon today 150 had signed their enrollment cgjrds, had the signatures of their various in structors and the card turned back to principal Harry T. Drill. Last year the opening days' attendance at the high noon was 245. . The attendance at the Washington Bchool showed an increase of 11 pu nils. The attendance this morning : was 257 as against 246 last year. The i Hawthorne school showed a total reg istration this morning of 245 students as against 283 last year. The Lincoln showed a small decrease there being 208 registered this morning as against 245 last year. This, decrease, .is ex plained by the fact that a number of students came without their books and were counted absent until this after noon. The afternoon figures are not available but it is safe to say that the 1916 enrollment is expected to reach the 1000 mark today. Fifteen children are enrolled at tho Fields' school. The total morning en rollment was 875 students. t v W. S.

The plan for a system of inland waterways to insure the transportation of freight and passengers in the F.astem part of the United States in case of a general railroad strike will be considered by the annual convention of the Atlantic Deeper Waterways convention that opened here today. An inland water ways system connecting all navigable rivers, lakes and canals, delegates pointed out, would serve the dual pur pose of rendezvous for the navy in time of war and of a means of trans portation during labor troubles. Al though Congressman J. Hampton MnM-o nroairlont- Rear Admirals Wm. IO. ruiiun im ... v...v, j - Generals William M. Black and Tas ker H. Bliss and Brigadier General E. M. Weaver and other3 confined theit remarks to plans for the Atlantic coast, other speakers later will urge similar plans for the Gulf and Pacific coast states. About a thousand dele gates from Atlantic coast towns and cities are here. The convention will last four days, during which, it is ex pected, addresses will be delivered by United States Senators and Congress men of the Rivers & Harbors com mittee and the Commerce committee. im-j flAnies is to sneak ' before the convention Sept. 16 at the League lslana wavy iara. lomur row the delegates will move their con vention to Trenton and the following day to Chester, Wilmimjton and Delft ware City to examine cannls. At Del aware City Thursday President Wil son is expected to address the dele gates after an inspection tour of the ri.DcDnBnU and rialnwnre canal, "the ' Kiel of America," as the delegates call it. It the rrosiuent cannot come, someone will be present to represent him. One of the most important phases of the convention wi'.l be taken up at Delaware City: the transforma tion of the Chesapeake and Delaware canal into a body of water iBrge enough to float the largest battleship built, building or contemplated. This would atTord a quick and safe passage for the sea dogs from the important Chesapeake bay, from whence it would go to the denfense of Baltimore and Philadelphia via the Delaware river.

Thanks to thou sands of Italian-American miners who came back from the coal fields of Pennsylvania and Colorado, Italy took the stronghold of Gorizia from the Austrians. They hewed galleries and solid rock and tunnelled a way for the advance of the Duke of Aosta and his troops. The question now is: Can they blast a road to Triests and Vien na? They believe they can.
