Group of workers in Meritas Mill, Columbus, Ga. Could not get the youngest. I went through the mill in the morning and saw some very young workers, and a number of little dinner-toters who were helping. A school teacher told me that the parents count on the children learning to work this way, during the noon, and encourage the people to work at that time, although the nooning is only 30 minutes. Location: Columbus, Georgia.
