M. C. A4 Arrived In ; Wilmington Yesterday, ,' ; General Pershing has turned over to the Y. M. C. A. 1,000 stores doing' a business of Ave million " djll&rg .a month, which has made it necessary to secure not less than 4,000 men in this country for immediate overseas duty, according to Rev ' Ernest Neal Orr, D, D., state recruiting agent for the army Y. M. C. A., who arrived in Wilmington yesterday and will this morning outline the, needs of the ser vice to the local ministers' associatioh; Dr. Orr resigned the pastorate of a large .Presbyterian church in "Denver,.

Those desiring informa tion as to the type of men .needed for this service should confer; either with him, General Secretary J. B. Hunting ton or Bishop Darst in this city. Dr. Howard- E. Rondthaler. of Winston Salem, is the state -chairman. . A great number of business men in cluding those capable of managing -a store or a chain of stores are needed for this work as well as clerks, -accountants and bookkeepers. A large number of automobile drivers and au tomobile repairers must be secured also as the supplies must be brought up from the railroad centers , in the rear. ' . Physical directors,, chorus leaders and teachers are also needed for the service. It is expected, 1 of course, that the men employed for the var ious branclies of the service; will be those who are known to be of Chris tian integrity. Men within the draft age unless they bear visible physical disqualifications, - cannot be -used for this service and the appeal, therefore, is to men between the ages of 31 and 50. r. No attractive salary inducements are made as it is expected that men entering the service will doso as;a contribution to their country during the war. However, an adequate living salary will be given, based on an al lowance for each man at home and overseas.

P. Seovllle Come to Trinity Churca Highly Recommended. Rev. V. P. Seovllle, who was re cently assigned to Trinity Methodist church as pastor to succeed -Rev. W. V. McRae, who resigned . to go into the army as chaplain, , has arrived.' In the city and preached, his .first sermon to a large congregation; last night.. Child ren's day exercises ;Were . held at the morning hour.. ;.Mr. ; Seovllle Is a young minister, who had been sta tioned at Commerce, Ga., for, the past 18 months, and comes to this city with excellent recommendations. The Com merce News, speaking of his depar ture said: - "Rev. V. P. Seovllle left Wednes day of this week for Wilmington, N. CL, to assume his duties as pastor of Trinity church In that place having recently been transferred by Bishop. Candler from North Georgia to the North Carolina conference, to fill a' vacancy at Trinity church, Wilmington caused by the pastor's leaving, for training camps. Mr. Seovllle held the last service Sunday night, after hav--ing preached one of the best sermons at the morning service 'that he has ever delivered during his pastorate of IS monthe here. His popularity as a minister of the gospel Is due to sev eral causes. He is a good mixer,1 well educated, having attended college at Emory and later at Vanderbllt and later spending several years 'in Cuba as a missionary. In his public minis trations he manifests many of ' the gifts of, the orator and is never at a Joss for choice language to give ex prcs!on to the thoughts that rapidly crowd Into his mind. Notwithstand ing the fact that he speaks rapidly the" hearer is impressed with the con viction that the. speaker flndsv it diffi cult to give expression to thoughts that seem to follow each other in rap Id f succession. Of a tender, sympa thetic heart. It seems to be natural t him to share hia brother's burdens and 'seek first to find and help those who most need the advice and counsel of a true minister; of the gospel.' At the close of. the service Sunday night, when marly went forward to bid him good-bye. it was evident that he held a Itrong grip on his flock, especially the Epworth. Leaguers among . the younger: set. The people of this city, regardless ot church affiliation, deeply regret his removal. It is likely that the church 4iere has never had a pas tor ' who .was ; more , generally beloved hot one who was his superior tn' pul pit ministrations. .. : 7- : Vf - DEATH OF YOUNG WOMAK, '" ;f " 'v' ' i ' Wife ! of E L.

Evangeilst Rutherford Contjinav Meet. lug at Seventh and Grace. "If Paul were here" was the subject of the sermon by Evangelist Hornet N. Rutherford at the morning service yes terday at Seventh and Grace stre'ets.
