Importar nt Desision | THE SEWINS MACHINE AWARDS.
[From the Sewing Machine Journal. ]
Fhe Special Nie dal to Wheeler & Wilson Manuiaciuring Company,
Extract from the Judges’ R port:
“The recommendation we hereby submit :— “The great advantage which it obtains in ite listinctive feature, the Rotative Hook, over the class of machines using tl} 1e reciprocating shuttle, is one which needs, to show it, no spée vial demonstration ; it being apparent at once,
not only to the educ ated mechanic, but to any intelligent observer.”
The Report concluded ;
“The tension is more easily adjusted and needs less regulating than any other that we know of. The range of work successfully formed by the apparatus known as the ‘No, 6 machine’ in our presence, was larger than we have elsewhere seen on any one machine, going from many thicknesses of tin and cloth to.
gether to the finest cambric, without stopping the machine, and the sewing all perfect, show- ing the perfectment of the tension device used. The machine is well made, all its parts being litted to guage, and consequently interchange- able. It has already received from the Amer. ican Institute all the awards and recognitions under the rules possible to a sewing machine, We consider the apparatus known as the No, 6 to be the most mechanical in construction and as attaining the best results of any ma- chine we know of, and we do not’ hesitate to declare it, as in our opinion, at present the best sewing appar atus in the world ; we recommend for it the highest recognition under the rules that can be awarded—the Special Medal of 1377,
