Holder for Flexible Lamp-Cord

Ceiling-Cord Holder

The holder is made of a round stick—a piece of a broom handle will do—as shown in Fig. 1. It is about 1 in. long with two notches cut out for the strands of the cord. These holders are easily made and will answer the purpose almost as well as the ones made in porcelain. Painting or enameling will improve not only their appearance, but also their insulating properties. Several of them can be used along a line, as shown in Fig. 2.
