ILL
BEAUTIFUULY LOCATED IN WEST OXFORD, N. C., HAS BEEN
ONE OF OXFORD'S LEADING INDUSTRIES FOR MANY YEARS. NEAR
LY TWO MILLION POUNDS OF FINE CARDED COTTON YARN IS SPUN
ANNUALLY, AND SHIPPED THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES, AND
TO ENGLAND, FRANCE, AND SOUTH AMTRICA. THE SPLENDID
REPUTATION OF ITS PRODUCT ENABLES IT TO OPERATE FULL
TIME WHILE OTHER MILLS ARE CLOSED.
THE MILL IS LOCATED ON ITS TRACT OF 100 ACRES, AND
THE HOMES OF ITS OPERATIVES ARE ATTRACTIVE IN APPEAR
ANCE, PAINTED AND IN GOOD REPAIR, AND RENT IS ONLY 15 CENTS
PER ROOM PER WEEK. THERE ARE ATTRACTIVE GRASS PLOTS
AND FLOWERS AROUND THE MILL, AND EVERY HOME HAS A
BEAUTIFUL FLOWER GARDEN IN FRONT, AND A VEGETABLE GAR
DEN IN THE REAR. AS LAND IS PLENTIFUL, EACH HOUSEHOLDER
IS FURNISHED WITH ALL THE LAND HE WILL WORK.
THE BAPTISTS, METHODISTS, AND EPISCOPALIANS HAVE
CHURCH SERVICES NEAR AND IN THE MILL VILLAGE, WITH
BARACA AND PHILATHEA CLASSES, AND LARGE AND SUCCESSFUL
SUNDAY SCHOOLS. AN EXCELLENT EIGHT MONTH PUBLIC SCHOOL
IS MAINTAINED ON THE MILL VILLAGE, WITH A NIGHT SCHOOL
LAST YEAR FOR THOSE INTERESTED. MANY OF ITS OPERATIVES
COMING TO THE MILL A FEW YEARS AGO NOW OWN THEIR OWN
HOMES NEARBY.
ONLY PEOPLE OF GOOD MORALS ARE WELCOME AT OXFORD
COTTON MILLS, AND LIVING CONDITIONS HERE ARE EXCEPTIONAL,
THE ENTIRE VILLAGE BEING ONE OF THE SHOW PLACES OF OX
FORD. MORAL AND LIVING CONDITIONS AND SURROUNDINGS,
HOMES, CHURCHES, AND SCHOOLS, EXCELLENT NEIGHBORHOOD,
AND HEALTHFULNESS OF THE PLACE, WITH GOOD RUNNING WORK
FULL TIME AT GOOD WAGES, ALL COMBINE TO MAKE THE OXFORD
COTTON MILLS A MOST DESIRABLE PLACE TO LIVE AND WORK.
