No. 222 Metal Molding 
 
 ATIONAL MeEtaL Mo .pInc is a 
 
 small raceway of rust-proof steel 
 that is used for enclosing and protect- 
 ing electric wires installed on walls, 
 ceilings, or other surfaces. It is made 
 in two sizes—known as No. 333 and No. 
 222. No. 333 Molding is a little less 
 than one inch wide and one-half inch 
 deep. No. 222 Molding is about two- 
 thirds as wide as No. 333. 
 
 National Metal Molding has long been 
 known among electrical men as ‘The 
 Standard for Surface Wiring.” It can 
 be used for making extensions of existing 
 wiring, or for completely wiring un- 
 wired buildings—wherever it is necessary 
 or desirable to run electric wires on the 
 surface.

LECT RICULY is ‘the: -world’s 
 | greatest servant. It serves in 
 scores of ways in the home, in 
 business and in industry. 
 
 Light—abundant and perfect 
 light—is just one of the things elec- 
 tricity makes possible. 
 
 In the home, electricity will perform 
 many tiring household tasks; in the 
 office and store it can operate devices 
 that increase accuracy and efficiency; 
 in the factory, it should provide the 
 power that means greater production 
 and better working conditions. 
 
 But before electricity can be used to 
 the greatest advantage, proper wiring 
 is necessary. Few buildings today are 
 adequately wired. Many are not wired 
 at all: 
 
 In buildings inadequately wired, in 
 
 buildings not wired at all, in buildings 
 of all kinds, National Metal Molding— 
 
 “Brings Electricity Where Needed”’ 
 National Metal Molding enables elec- 
 
 tric wires to be run on the surface to 
 wherever desired and neatly enclosed 
 
and thoroughly protected. It does away 
 with the inconvenience and expense of 
 opening up walls, floors or ceilings when 
 installing electric wires. 
 
 If desired, National Metal Molding 
 can be painted to match the walls or 
 woodwork of any room. It makes a neat, 
 inconspicuous and absolutely safe instal- 
 lation. It is listed by the Underwriters’ 
 Laboratories as an approved raceway 
 for surface wiring. 
 
“Brings Electricity Where Needed” 
 
 HE Evecrric [Ron is the most 
 
 popular of all electrical appli- 
 ances. But it is difficult to use an iron, 
 clothes washer or other appliance if 
 there are no outlets at convenient loca- 
 tions to which they can be easily con- 
 nected. 
 
 National Metal Molding provides a 
 quick, neat and inexpensive means of 
 putting in these “ Convenience Outlets, 
 and with Metal Molding there is no 
 cutting into walls, floors or ceilings— 
 no tearing up, no trouble of any kind.

HE EvLectric CLEANER should be 
 
 used in every modern home. It 
 cleans everything thoroughly, requires 
 but little time and effort and costs but 
 a few cents per month to operate. 
 
 If you use an electric cleaner, or if you 
 are planning to use one, don’t connect it 
 to a lighting fixture socket. National 
 Metal Molding—run along the base 
 board or on the walls—will provide 
 electrical outlets just where you need 
 them—for connecting the cleaner or any 
 other electrical appliance. 
 
ORTABLE Et ectric Lamps bring 
 light just where it’s needed—and 
 their beauty makes them desirable addi- 
 tions to the furnishings of any home. 
 
 To provide places to connect these 
 lamps, additional wiring is usually 
 necessary. This can best be done with 
 National Metal Molding. It enables the 
 wires to be run along the base board, 
 or anywhere on the surface, and with no 
 tearing up, or cutting into the walls and 
 floors. Metal Molding is neat and in- 
 conspicuous and can be painted to match 
 the finish of any room.

 HE MopERN OFFICE must have 
 
 electric adding machines, address- 
 ing machines, etc., that save time and 
 labor. Plenty of good light is also 
 needed. But rare is the office that has 
 the electrical outlets needed for con- 
 necting these devices. 
 
 To put electricity to work in the 
 office, it is usually necessary to have the 
 wiring extended. Having the work done 
 with National Metal Molding permits 
 the wires to be quickly run on the sur- 
 face and enclosed and protected by the 
 molding. There is no tearing up of floors, 
 etc., and no interference with work. 
 
REATER accuracy, increased 
 
 efficiency and better working con- 
 ditions naturally follow when electric- 
 ally-driven business appliances go into 
 an office. They save time, work—and 
 the possibility of expensive errors. 
 
 National Metal Molding is the ideal 
 material to use when extending the wir- 
 ing in an office. It can be run anywhere 
 and causes a minimum of delay and 
 inconvenience to the people in the office. 
 It can also be used to great advantage 
 when repairing, rebuilding, changing the 
 location of fixtures, etc. 
 
ING MetaL MOLDING goes 
 everywhere—into every out-of- 
 the-way place and every hard-to-get-at 
 corner. It solves many wiring problems. 
 
 Whether used for making an ex- 
 tension of existing wiring, or for com- 
 pletely wiring an unwired building, there 
 is never any trouble installing National 
 Metal Molding. It goes on any kind of 
 wall or ceiling; and, remember, wiring 
 the Metal Molding way makes it un- 
 necessary to cut into the walls, floors, 
 or ceilings—time, trouble and money 
 are saved. 
 
TTRACTIVELY LicGHTED SHOow 
 
 WINDOWS are great advertise- 
 ments for any store. They are con- 
 stantly attracting people and bringing 
 customers into the store. 
 
 Many of the best lighted windows and 
 show cases are wired with National 
 Metal Molding. Its small size and flat 
 shape make it adaptable to windows of 
 any size or style; and its relatively low 
 cost enables it to be used by the small 
 store as well as the large one. It should 
 also be used inside the store—to carry 
 electricity for operating electric coffee- 
 grinders, meat cutters, etc., also for lights. 
 
NDUSTRIAL development is de- 
 
 pendent upon men, materials and 
 power. Electricity provides the latter. 
 It is a tremendous factor in increasing 
 and stabilizing production and in pro- 
 ducing better working conditions. 
 
 National Metal Molding should be 
 installed throughout the plant—for pro- 
 viding connections for motors operating 
 individual or group-driven machines, for 
 portable electric tools, and for localized 
 lighting. It makes electricity a flexible 
 working force—bringing it just where 
 it’s needed—just where the work is to be 
 done. 
 
VERY FARM should have electric 
 
 light and power—from the power 
 lines, if they are near, or from a farm 
 electric plant. 
 
 National Metal Molding can be used 
 for completely wiring the farm house, 
 barn, dairy, etc. By wiring the Metal 
 Molding way, the wires can be run on 
 the surface and completely enclosed and 
 protected. No opening of walls, ceilings, 
 etc., is necessary—this means a big sav- 
 ing of money. And Metal Molding 
 makes a neat and absolutely safe elec- 
 trical installation. 
 
HERE ARE MILLIONS of unwired 
 
 houses in this country— homes 
 without the great comfort and conven- 
 ience of electric service. [To wire many 
 of these houses is often a difficult and ex- 
 pensive job. But not if they are wired 
 with National Metal Molding. 
 
 When the house is wired with 
 National Metal Molding there is no 
 opening of walls, floors, or ceilings; no 
 removing of base boards and cutting into 
 plaster; no tearing down or destructive 
 work of any kind. It means a big saving 
 of money—and it insures a neat, incon- 
 spicuous and absolutely safe installation.
