When desired, the lamp bulb can projected beyond the rellector by ine-ely loosening the set screw 34e and sliding the tube 33 and subsequently tightening the y screw. it is apparent, therefore, that the lamp bulb can be placed in 'practically any desired position.
`lt is believed in script-ion that a further View of the foregoing^ detailed desc-.
