Three Factors in Success.
It would be possible to give other indications of the
splendid equipment of the Works, but enough has been said
to show that there is directed towards the realisation of the
best work in all departments — firstly, the advantages of

through the proprietors, but also through many of the
workmen ; and, thirdly, a sound progressive spirit,
which recognises the necessity for continual improvement
in administration and design, and in machine tools and
methods of manufacture.
