Columbus Cotton Mills Near Completion, Jan. 7, 1926

Columbus Cotton Mills Nearing Completion

Work on the cotton mills at Columbus is moving forward rapidly. When in operation, this new industry will have a large pay roll which will mean much to not only Columbus, but the entire county. Large forces of workmen had been busily engaged to rush this work so as to be ready for business as soon as possible.
