THOMAS J. NOLAND REACHES HOME
AFTER MANY EXPERIENCES IN ITALY
A Native of Bartow County, He
Went Over There As Red
Triangle Man, And Saw
Much of Horrors of War—
Spent Tuesday in Carters
ville Enlisting Men for Spec
ial Training School.
To have seen a river choked with
the bodies of dead men, to have wit
nessed the slaughter of thousands of
wildly fleeing human beings whose
only thought was to find safety from
a hail of bursting shells and a blast of
machine-gun bullets, to have witnessed
the absolute destruction of a vast mili
tary army—that is the experience of
a Georgia man who has just returned
after months of service on the Italian
i front.
The man whose fortune it was to
have a part in the great operations
that brought to a climax the events on
one of the most important battle
grounds of tlie world war, who wit
nessed the collapse of the Austrian
armies on the final days of the great
struggle, is Thomas J. Noland, of
Adairsville, Ga„ well known not only
in Georgia, but in the states through
out this territory. Before he entered
the service of the army and Navy Y’.
M. C. A. he was one of the most suc
cessful traveling salesmen in the south.
But for many months he has worn a
Red Triangle uniform in Italy, France
and America.
In Cartersviile Tuesday.
Mr. Noland is now general secretary
for the Seventh Congressional Dis
trict, and in that capacity spent Tues
day in Cartersviile in the interest of
Plans of this great organization for
enlisting men who are tot ake special
training at lile Ridge, North Carolina.
Two men from each county in this
•district are to be afforded opportuni
ty to spend ten days at Blue Ridge,
and there receive instructions in the
plans which the Y. M. C. A. expects
to carry out in tin endeavor to help
the government serve some of its after
the war problems One of the plans
now under consideration calls f<y
learning tlie best ways and means Cor
extending such aid as is necessary to
[ the returning soldiers. Any Christian
man, either layman or minister, chos
en by the proper authorities, who will
attend tlie full sessions of any given
conference, which is to last not less
than ten days, is eligible as a delegate
to tlie Blue Ridge School, said Mr.
Nob) nd.
The War Work Council will pay
railroad fare from the home communi
ty to Blue Ridge, N. C., and return;
also Pullman fare and entertainment
while at Blue Ridge. All incidentals
will be paid by the individual delegate,
but no Expense account will be paid
for any delegate staying less than the
full time.
While in Cartersviile, Mr. Noland
was in conference with the ministers
of the Cartersviile ’churches, and he
expects them to forward him nomina
tions of suitable candidates for these
training schools, at once.
Noland Had Unusual Experiences.
Tom Noland had been accustmed to
making impromptu speeches at any
time of the day or night if he thought
there was any possibility of selling a
good-sized bill of goods, but in his
wildest flights of imagination he never
dreamed of giving vent to a burst of
oratory to the accompaniment vif shell
fire. But that is just what he was
called upon to do and suffice it to say
that his efforts were rewarded by the
official commendation of Italy's high
est military commanders.
Selected for Italian Service.
When he first donned the Red Trian
gle uniform and volunteered for over
seas service with the “Y” he hoped
to accompany the Yanks across the
Rhine and take a look at the imperial
palace at Potsdam, hut o:,iy a tew
weeks after he hit France he was se
lected, with about 200 other Y. M. C. A.
men, to join the 'ltalian armies and
take up morale and propaganda work.
At this time the morale of the Italian
troops was at low ebb. The disaster
that had overtaken the Italians arms on
the Venetian plains, following the col
lapse of the front in the Dalmation
Alps, had seriously affected the sol-'
diers of King Victor Emmanuel.
An Italian captain in Paris saw some
pictures of the Y. M. C. A. work among
French troops and concluded that what
was good for Frenchmen would be
good for Italians. At his urgent re
quest a British-American commission
with Francis B. Sayre as chairman
made an investigation in Italy with
the result that' the highest military
and civil officials declared theirwill
ingness to accept the maximum co-op
eration of the American Young Man's
Christian association. From that mo
ment the success of the enterprise was
assured; subsequent visit of I)r. Mott
and Dr. Watson and the conferences
with the king and other greatly en
hanced the prestige of the association.
Every effort was being made to
arouse the Italian armies to a pitch of
mental enthusiasm and hope for the
successful outcome of the war that
would make possible a tremendous and
final offensive. The Y. M. C. A. was
one of the principal agencies selected
| for this vital task and Tom Noland
with his poworkers, were dispatched to
Italy'post haste.
-■%.-■# f
Italians Waiting With Open Arms.
They arrived to find the Italians
waiting them with open arms. Noth
ing was too good for the Americans,
who were hailed as representatives of
a nation that had entered the war to
bring victory to the cause of democ
racy with nothing of a material of ter
ritorial nature to gain as the result
of the conflict of arms.
“We didn't waste any time in get
ting to work," Noland the other
day, as he sat talking of hi 6 experi
ences and displaying to an admiring
group of friends an interesting collec
tion of relics picked upon the fields of
battle.
"General Diaz immediately distrib
uted us Y. M. C. A. men among the va
rious units of the Italian forces and I
was attached to the Eighth army,
which had suffered severely in the pre
vious defeat and was now dept tided on
to form the apex of the wedge to be
