8 MARINE REVIEW September, 1925 Ship Painting is another operation which requires the use of a reliable rope. When the painter, work- ing on the scaffold realizes that the rope supporting it is dependable, he will spread a lot of paint in a day. The ship will be painted better and quicker than if the scaffold were supported by some uncertain brand of cordage. Columbian Tape-Marked Pure Manila Rope is used a great deal for this type of work. Its reputation has been established and users of the Tape-Marked Rope know they can rely upon it entirely. Columbian Rope Company 332-90 Genesee Street Auburn, ‘‘The Cordage City’’ N.Y.
