July, 1917 THE MARINE REVIEW 91 Sn ee ee ae ee SATO Os DE SLE TES ee eon HELPING DEFEAT THE SUBMARINE You are responsible for the lives on board your ship. Your life saving equipment MUST be dependable. You need good, never-failing ladders. Your ship is not equipped for danger unless you have at least one McArthur Jacob’s ladder. These ladders are easily and quickly placed, they’re firm and steady—you can walk down them as easily as on an iron fire escape. Rope ladders swing, shake and twist. They’re not safe. You NEED McArthur ladders on every ship you control. Every detail in the construction of these ladders has been worked out to produce strength, lightness, portability and efficiency. The cable of these ladders is of plow steel, com- bining lightness with great strength. ‘The steps are of galvanized or sherardized sheet iron, with 2 two-tooth prongs giving a firm foothold. (See illustration.) The hooks are of sherardized stamped sheet metal. McArthur Ladders can be compactly rolled up when not in use. They are sold in sections of any desired length. These sections may be instantly con- nected by means of snap hooks, adapting the ladder to light or loaded condition of ships.
