63 Constitution Cords
These are very heavy cotton cloths and the broadest cords made. Heavy fustian looms are required to weave them. The design is usually on 12 ends and 12 picks requiring 8 staves. A variety made in Oldham is 31 in full 42 reed 300 picks per inch 2/30's twist 18's weft. The reed and weft vary every alternate pile pick is securely, bound in the cloth which makes it firm. Constitutions and cables have broad floats or races, which are some distance apart and are usually cut by machines of two kinds. No 1 machine is provided with a number of circular discs corresponding to that of the races to be cut. These discs are mounted on a revolving shaft and as the cloth passes underneath the discs sever the float threads. No 2 comprises a specially formed knife supported in a moveable holder, which is traversed laterally the distance from one cord to another, after each length of cut is completed. The cloth to be cut is presented to the knife at a convenient angle, and is caused to meet the edge of the knife by means of revolving rollers around one of which it is wound as the cutting proceeds. The machine has an automatic stop motion which operates immediately a fault is made.Dictionary of the English textile terms > Constitution Cords

67 Babbage, Charles
SUBJECT AREA: Electronics and information technology[br]b. 26 December 1791 Walworth, Surrey, Englandd. 18 October 1871 London, England[br]English mathematician who invented the forerunner of the modern computer.[br]Charles Babbage was the son of a banker, Benjamin Babbage, and was a sickly child who had a rather haphazard education at private schools near Exeter and later at Enfield. Even as a child, he was inordinately fond of algebra, which he taught himself. He was conversant with several advanced mathematical texts, so by the time he entered Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1811, he was ahead of his tutors. In his third year he moved to Peterhouse, whence he graduated in 1814, taking his MA in 1817. He first contributed to the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society in 1815, and was elected a fellow of that body in 1816. He was one of the founders of the Astronomical Society in 1820 and served in high office in it.While he was still at Cambridge, in 1812, he had the first idea of calculating numerical tables by machinery. This was his first difference engine, which worked on the principle of repeatedly adding a common difference. He built a small model of an engine working on this principle between 1820 and 1822, and in July of the latter year he read an enthusiastically received note about it to the Astronomical Society. The following year he was awarded the Society's first gold medal. He submitted details of his invention to Sir Humphry Davy, President of the Royal Society; the Society reported favourably and the Government became interested, and following a meeting with the Chancellor of the Exchequer Babbage was awarded a grant of £1,500. Work proceeded and was carried on for four years under the direction of Joseph Clement.In 1827 Babbage went abroad for a year on medical advice. There he studied foreign workshops and factories, and in 1832 he published his observations in On the Economy of Machinery and Manufactures. While abroad, he received the news that he had been appointed Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University. He held the Chair until 1839, although he neither resided in College nor gave any lectures. For this he was paid between £80 and £90 a year! Differences arose between Babbage and Clement. Manufacture was moved from Clement's works in Lambeth, London, to new, fireproof buildings specially erected by the Government near Babbage's house in Dorset Square, London. Clement made a large claim for compensation and, when it was refused, withdrew his workers as well as all the special tools he had made up for the job. No work was possible for the next fifteen months, during which Babbage conceived the idea of his "analytical engine". He approached the Government with this, but it was not until eight years later, in 1842, that he received the reply that the expense was considered too great for further backing and that the Government was abandoning the project. This was in spite of the demonstration and perfectly satisfactory operation of a small section of the analytical engine at the International Exhibition of 1862. It is said that the demands made on manufacture in the production of his engines had an appreciable influence in improving the standard of machine tools, whilst similar benefits accrued from his development of a system of notation for the movements of machine elements. His opposition to street organ-grinders was a notable eccentricity; he estimated that a quarter of his mental effort was wasted by the effect of noise on his concentration.[br]Principal Honours and DistinctionsFRS 1816. Astronomical Society Gold Medal 1823.BibliographyBabbage wrote eighty works, including: 1864, Passages from the Life of a Philosopher.July 1822, Letter to Sir Humphry Davy, PRS, on the Application of Machinery to the purpose of calculating and printing Mathematical Tables.Further Reading1961, Charles Babbage and His Calculating Engines: Selected Writings by Charles Babbage and Others, eds Philip and Emily Morrison, New York: Dover Publications.IMcN -

Better cloth is made from super yarns such as 2/40's ground and 2/30's crossing warps. The take-up of the crossing warp is about 70 per cent., thus for 100 yards of cloth 170 yards of warp is used.

79 Gloves
Gloves do not appear to have been worn in England before the end of the loth century, and their manufacture would seem to be at that period specially German, as five pairs of gloves made a considerable part of the duty paid to our English Sovereign, Ethelred II (979-1016) by a society of German merchants, for the protection of their trade in this country. A proof of their great rarity. Gloves were in general use in the 14th century; among the better classes they were customary New Year gifts in the 16th century by those who could afford them. Long gloves for ladies were introduced in the reign of Charles II as dresses then had short sleeves. Since the 17th century little alteration has taken place. Gloves are now made of doeskin, lambskin, kid, buckskin, lisle, silk, lace, wool, cotton and other material. -
