As of October 1, 1954, three new departments were organized in the Sunday School. The Kenansville Baptist Church was built around 1837 and with very minor changes is exactly as it was in those days. The new structure is to conform with the architecture of the old part. In the last eight years, the church has progressed from one service a month to a full time program; a handsome brick parsonage has been built and paid for, and many other Improvements such as a heating system, choir robes, hymn books and landscap ing have been done.

Music Program Sunday Dr. Arnold Hoffman, Music Sup ervisor of North Carolina Public Instruction taught a group of 185 Duplin leaders what good music in a church is, when he annparprt through the sponsorship of the Du plin Federation of Home Demon stratidn Clubs on Sunday afternoon, October 3, in the Kenansville High School Auditorium. Mrs. Walter Rhodes, County mus ic leader, presided and presented Dr. Hoffman to the group. Dr. Hoffman pointed out that there was a time and a place for all music. i In a church service, the music used throughout the service should elevate -and Inspire men's .soul to worship the true and living God. The music should be Inspirational, should make man want to live like Christ. To have this type of music in the church, Dr. Hoffman suggested that the music and hymns used should really say something; they should preach a text. He warned about using music that had a "Saturday night ring or dance tap" in our church services. We shouild be sincere. What we sing or play should come from a sincere and humble heart, else there will not be true worshipers. Any thing that is theatrical in nature has no place either in the church Choir members should not wear gaudy clothes, large flowers, ear rings, etc. Choir robes are nice for they aid in creating a worshipful appearance. , Dr. Hoffman helped the group to see that words of hymns are mean ingful as he led them in singing Hymns like "All Hail The Power of Jesus Name", "Onward Christian Soldiers", "Beneath the Cross of Jesus", and others were written by people who had experienced God. Hymns such an these written by people of true conviction can mean much. When sung with feeling and sincerity, everyone is drawn toward God. In conclusion, he said, every part of the service should be planned toward that of aiding people in the true worship of God. The service should be sincere and the music good.
