December, 1916 THE MARINE REVIEW 59 “tp s the Ideal Ladder,” says the Captain The McArthur Jacob’s Ladder shown here is on one of the largest vessels plying the Lakes. This ladder embraces several new features in ship ladder construction that make it ideal for ali around marine use. It satisfactorily meets every requirement because it has no undesirable features that many ladders have—particularly the rope ladder. It is made in sections of any desired length. These sections can be instantly connected by snap hooks thus adapting the ladder to light or loaded conditions of ships. The telescopic feature of the former type is eliminated. It is easily rolled up, is light but extremely strong and hugs to the side of the ship so firmly as to make its use safe and easy. 418 of the leading fleets on the lakes use these ladders and several Transatlantic steamers are fully equipped -with them.
