October, 1926 MARINE REVIEW 61 Roll down to Brest with the old ensign over us,— Carry on and thrash her out with. all she’ll stand. Rudyard Kipling. ree th Uniy ative s So: “Ccepteg ebeane® Lu : Alyy as a HE Lundin boat is an all metal, broad, shal- low lifeboat, so buoyed up with air tanks as to be almost unsinkable. Capt. Fried of the President Roosevelt attempted to use none of the other lifeboats hanging on the davits and without the LUNDIN LIFEBOATS, an innovation of the last decade, Capt. Fried might have been forced to stand powerless on the bridge and watch the freighter go down with all hands. VERY sail draw- ing, rigging, humming, — every seam straining, crowding to get the last knot of speed—a mighty test for caulking. Does she spread, and spring a leak? No, sir, for there’s STRATFORD OAKUM well-caulked in her seams. Stratford Oakum has been the choice of the experienced for nearly a century. The best shipvards and repair yards use it, for a Stratford seam is caulked right and stays tight. Do not accept a substitute. There is none ‘Just as good’’. GEORGE STRATFORD OAKUM COMPANY Jersey City, New Jersey. Also manufacturers of Cotton Wiping Waste _—————— This is a sincere and authoritative endorsement that the ‘“‘Lundin’’ may be accepted: universally as the lifeboat for the heaviest seas. In rescuing the sailors of the Italian freighter Ignazio Florio three months ago, Capt. Grening of the President Harding also used Lundins exclusively. Chief Officer Miller spoke with unrestrained en- thusiasm of the Lundin boat, and one of the Roosevelt’s passengers, a veteran of many cross- ings, insisted that no other type of lifeboat could have lived in the waves between the American and British liners.” Welin Davit & Boat Corp. 305 Vernon Ave., Long Island City, N.
