the type ,usedi'ffor' dis lay purposes' ivith which a" lighting 'attac ment "is" associated in a neat andsimplifiedmanner,which pro vides an arrangement comparatively inexpens ve to *ass'emble," and Which forms a harmonious, ornamental unit.
A further object of this invention is to provide an improved ornamental lighting attachment Which is adapted to be veasily and conveniently mounted, comprises vfew parts, possesses a'great deal of flexibility for utilization in various Ways, is inexpensive to manufacture, and is Withalefficient to av high degree in use.
145 Other objects of this invention will in part be obvious and in part hereinafter pointed out.
The invention accordingly consists in the features of construction, combinations of elements, and arrangement of parts Wh1ch ving claims.
In the particular construction shownon W'illbe exemplified in the construction here- Q v inafter described, and of which the sco 6f application Will be indicated in the follow 7 In the accompanyingdrawing,in vvhich isshownone of the'various possible illus trati-ve embodiments of this invention, Fig. lis'a view in elevation ofa-n em bodiment' of'the invention. 7

7 Referring in detail to the drawing, 10" denotes a' decorative device, here shown as a Wreath, embodying "the invention, Said Wreath maybe" of any suitable shape, but is here shown'as beingiof the-type displayed on "doorsand Windows at; Christmas time with the "conventional annular bodyf portion 12. c y I *Secu'redtosaid Wreath isa'n ornamental ele'ment of anydesired character, 'here' shown as the lighting elementl l, upstandingfrom said body por oo'rtion f of the Q 7 tion, and extending into the opening" formed by annular portion 12. Element 114:
may e have the electric-lamp 16 mounted therein, so positioned that it will be located at thefcenter of Wreath A suitable power .1
source may be conveniently connected to said lamp through the lighting element 14:?
y means I 'd p i conductor; 18 t I g Y which a customary electricallplug- 20*is connected.
Lighting; element 14 .is "seen to comprise the lamp-base 22' which is made up ofjthe tubular sleeve 24 formed from any suitable materialeasily shapecl to present an ornainentalcontour, soniewhat'readily' d'eforn1- able" for a purpose 7 hereinafter appearing, yet providinga construction of a summit tially' rigid niemlcien and havingthe Priop- L a "or an electrical non-conductor."
