I Paramount Week, which has become known not only throughout the United States, but. ull over the world, offers to the patrons of each common- | ty in which th.e pictures are shown .an unusual opportunity of enjoying i what is considered the cream of the , program, as many of the best pictures made during the past season are pro- , ductions which feature the most, in- , foresting stars and stories and include the best technical settings. All of the most popular plays, novels and . short stories produced or published here and abroad, form the field from which the dramatic material for these pictures are selected and in booking them for Paramount Week for the Adams Theatre. Manager Spray. | further evidences his policy of giving I the Motion Picture Patrons the best available in screen entertainment.

TRAINING SCHOOL ORGANIZED HERE (Continued from Page One) vancement of religious education and ihe forward movement of the 1 churches is urged to hear Mr. Rut. Tho Community Council, which body controls the Community School j of Religious Education, consists of the president of the Washington township S. S. Council, and the pas tors and superintendents of the various affiliating churches in and around Decatur. This body entrusts to a community board of religious education the details of setting up and conducting the school. There will bo two terms or semesters during the year—one in the fall and the other after the holidays. The first semester will begin September 22 and close December 8; the second will open January 5 and run to March 23. There are twelve weeks in each semester. The school will meet one night a week and the session will be divided into three parts as follows: A class period from 7:15 to 8:05; a chapel period from 8:10 to 8:35, and a class period from 8:40 to 9:30. Thus a student may select two subjects during the term. There will be two classes of students: namely, those working for ci edit and those who are auditors cnly. It is hoped that practically ail students will strive lor credits, for after three years of study the International Council will award a Teacher Training. Diploma which will be tecognized in any part of the United States. Students of all ages are being successful in securing diplomas. Having been out ol* school for many years should not In any sense keep :nyone from joining the school and working for credits.
