How Fluff is Removed From Yarn.


"The first operation in converting the
yarn into thread" writes Mr.. David
Bremmer, who may be regarded as a
specialist on this subject, ''is the passing
of il through flame in order to remove
the fluff and protruding fibers. The
gassing machine consists of frame sup
porting rack for the cops containing
the yarn to be singed, and beam with
winding gear to draw the yarn from the
cops and wind it on the bobbins. Be-
tween the cops and bobbins are n series
of gas-jets, through which the yarn has
to pass on its way from the cops to the
bobbins. The speed at which the yarn
travels is in any case necessarily great,
but it is modified according to the sub
stance of the yarn-the heavier the yarn
the slower the motion. The speed at
which the bobbins are driven varies
from $500 TO $500 revolutions per min
ute. On emerging from the flame the
yarn is cleaned by brush and passes
through notch in piece of brass,
which is arranged to detect any knot or
lump. A defect of this kind depresscs
the brass, and instantly the gas-flame is
turned aside and the bobbin stopped.
The attendant, on observing the stop
page, removes the obstruction and puts
the bobbin and gas again into position" "

Mistakes in Punctuation.


Mistakes in punctuation, such as the
omission or misplacing ola comma, may
cause serious alteration to the sense of a
passage. The contract made for light
ing the town of ofLiverpool by wick lamps,
during the year 1919, was rendered void
by the misplacing of comma in the
advertisements, thus: "The lamps at
present are about 1850, and have in
general two spouts each, composed of
not less than twenty threads of cotton"
The contractors would have proceeded
to furnish each lamp with the said
twenty threads; but this being only half
the usual quantity, the commissioners
discovered that the difference arose
from the comma following, instead of
preceding, the word EACH" In the
following instance it was no doubt a
bachelor compositor who, in setting up
the toast, .'Woman, without her, man
would be a savage!" got the comma in
the wrong place, and made the sentence
read, woman, without her man, would
be savager'-C Chambers Journal.
