A CHALLENGE
urn.-on vs. sixoxb.
Owinjr to Uio crest state of perfectien to which the
Wilson Sewing Machine tin.-, keen advanced, and the
litet that employees of tiie 44 Singer ” Agency at Mem
pliia hove misrepresented the W ilson in uutuy ways, we
therefore issue the following challenge, and invite the
proprietora of the Memphis Agency, or any one repre
senting them, to compote with tiie Wilson Machine in
any public lull in the city, ou the following points of
merit, and the deciaii.n to be left to eleven first class
mechanics, six of whom may t* selected by opponents,
and none to be .selected who ore uow or have heretofore
been in tiie employ of eitner party.
W* propose to demonstrate clearly that the Wilson
Sewing Machine is superior to the Singer in the follow
ing pointy vix:
First—That the Wilson Machine has the best xxzn, it
being made to work on the right of th. needle aa well
aa ou th* left, to the Macliiue will stitch over set-ms or
gathers with ease.
Second.—The 44 take-up” movement for drawing up
:e .-lack thread is a “positiie movement,” and uses
:• check spring, and tun- prevents the missing of
stitches and delays by breakage.
Third.—The three principal movements in the Wilson
Machine, va; tbe aarorru, tha Earn and the kudu,
are ell worked by one abort shaft, instead of two long
ones, tims doing away with one long abaft, also tho two
- >g wheels, ano thus avoid friction.
Fourth.—The WiLui. is much the easiest and lightest
running Machine of the two, and lias more speed. The
difference iu furor of the Wilson is ten tkoutaud stitches
,n one day of six hours’ work, the motions made with
tbe feet being equal.
Filth.—The »coring joints in tbe Wilson Machine
are all made adjustable so that play room or lost motion
can be takeipop when necessary. (Therefore our w ar
rant f r five years, which we comply with, and other
companies Tctu-e to give.)
sixth.—The tension h not affected by tbe aiie of the
thread, ahd remains the same irom 150'down to No. 10,
and tli* screw for regulating retains its position.
Seventh.—The huge behince wheel bring located in
front and antaide tbe frame, can not soil tha dreae of the
operator.
Eighth.—Ti.e adjustable cones on the balance wheel
spindle prevents th^s rattling and clacking noise so ob-
Nin th.—The adjustable aennns on the needle bar of
the Wilson iusures uurubility, prevent* noise and tbe
breaking of need Vs.
Tenth.—The It ilson Machine, by a slight motion of
tbe operator’s foot, i* thrown out of motion when the
bobbins are being wound. Tli a gives four advantages:
1st. It aavae the labor of driving tiie machine when you
are not sewing; 2d. The unnecessary wear on machine
ry; td. The tucker or any attachment in use eon re
main in positiou without moving (which stops tho wear
and tear), and with tbe work in tne machine; 4th. Be
ginners or others cannot break the thread should they
turn the machine baedward, and the belt or bond re
mains in position and always ready.
In the event of a foilar* to demonstrate the above
points, we hereby agree to pay the rent of the ball se
lected by opponents and forfeit tbe maohina* on exhibi
tion, or wk* mm. This challenge, if accepted, will be
earned oat ten days after receipt or written notice from
oppeoenta, stating time and plriw for th* contest.
