mous Willamette Rotary

Anniversary Club and an-(
other full car is on the,
way!
A demonstration of the
Willamette' Rotary has
madn these new. delighted
owners. We have shown them, just as we would like to have the
opportunity to show you, how the Willamette stands "head
and shoulders" above any other Rotary at near our prices.
The under-view of a Willamette Rotary head, as shown in pic
ture, illustrates the simplicity of under mechanism. It shows the
self-adjusting automatic tension, which permits the sewing of
finest chiffon to heaviest broadcloth without touching a screw.
Note also the direct, straight bar application of power, which,
with the rotary shuttle, eliminates lost motion and vibration.
