Lillian Nettles, an eleven year old spinner in Magnolia Cotton Mills, Magnolia, Miss. Her sister said, She ain't old 'nuff to draw pay, but she helps regularly, and says she can run two sides. Worked steadily all the time I was in the mill. There are nine in the family; five in the mill, including the father. We like the mill work much better than farming, they said. Recently moved in from a small farm 50 miles a way.
