In building construction-employing wall boards many circumstances are often met with which render the application of the boards somewhat difii cult and often under the 5 present methods of application result in a 'very unsatisfactory condition after the work is completed',-due to the fact that the boards are not securely nailed to the supports or do not overlap the supports to asufiicient extent to provide an adequate bearing forthe boards. Sometimes stu ddings over which the boards 'are laid are not in a common plane so that bending of the boards must be resorted to with consequent strain on the edges of the boards, and if the nailing is very near'to such edges, "as is often necessary, a weakness in liable to break away or loosen from their supports. j 1 The present invention hasfor its object to provide a very simple devicefor application to or use in connection with wall boards for the purpose of strengthening the security of the boards when 'nailed in position, for rendering it easier to secure boards to their supports under conditions which ordinarily render effective nailing difiicult and which will admit of the boards being nailed to their supports in a manner very desirable under some conditions but not feasible without the provision of special means to render such nail ing effective.
. The invention further contemplates" the provision of clips adapted to be utilized in combination with the nails used in the-securing of wall boards to their supports, in such manner thatan efiect-ive engagement of the boards by the nailsmay be obtained in cases where it is necessary that such nails be close 4 to theedges of the boardsand-even in cases where the nails do not pass through the boards at all, but are adjacent such edges.
Still further objects subsidiary to or resulting from the aforesaid objects, or from the construction or operationof the inven tion as it may be carried into efiect, will be com apparent as the said invention is hereinaf r further disclosed.
. In arrying the saidinvention intoefiect,
I ma provide .U-shaped clips or. channel improved mannerdetail perspective view of be omitted.
struction results members, preferably of metal, adapted em- 7 brace the edges of .wall boards at nailing" points whereby nails may be passed through the saidcli-ps and the portion of the board engaged thereby into a support; or the nails may bedriven into such support exterior to the clip but adjacent the same whereby the head of the nails will engage such clips and efiect the securing'of the board in the desired a manner. Such, clips may: also be utilized on the support for increasing the supporting area presented to the boards.
All of which is more particularly described a and ascertained 'hereinafter,by way of example, having referenc to the accompanying v drawing, whereinthe construction may result and the boards be 'Figure 1 is a fragmentary perspective view illustrating the application of the invention to a wall construction;
' Figure2 is a transverse section of a studding'and wall board secured thereto in the Figure 3 is a one of the clips, and
Figure is a perspective view'illustrating the ,manner of securing a board by nailing outside the edge-of the board.
Similar characters of reference indicate similar parts in theseyeral figures of 'the drawing. Y
1 indicates studding, and 2 wall boards applied thereto. Tothe nailing edges of such boards I'propose to apply clips 3 preferably of metal and in the form of channel members, i
the sides 4 of which are adapted to eirtend over the-faces of the board and may be perforated as at 5 to facilitate the passage of nails 6 therethrough'although in some cases where the nature or thicknem of the. metal does not require it such perforations may It often happens in the application of wall boards to studding that, due to variations in .the spacing of the 'studding, some of the boards do not overlap-such studding to an ex tent which admits of solid nailing, the nails' l having to be driven into the wall board closer to the edge thereof than is good practice, and insecure orotherwise unsatisfactory con- By applying my improved nailing clips to such edges: and driving the nails through these clips into the; studding the board is: secured much more firmly as: will be quite-Fobvious, and the. nails may be driven into the supports much harder than would be other wise possible. without damaging the edgesof the board. These advantages: are also attainable even where theboards do overlap the supports. in a. normal manner, as the reinforcing nature of the cI-ips will render the nailing more effective and permit the nails being driven home with more force than is ordinarilypossible.
As shown in Figure 4 the nails may notnecessarily be passed through the clip, the said illustration indicating the nail 6 as being driven into the studdingexterior to the .clip but in such manner that. the head 7 of the nail engages the angular portion of the clip whereby the said clip may be quite firmly held'between the head of the nail and the studding with consequent attachment of the board 2 to the studding. This is especially advantagesaid edgeand theadjacent faces of said board and abutting said support, and a nail driven into said support and fixing said clip thereto.
' In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.

ous wherein the studding is very narrow and the overlapping ofthe hoards thereon is such that it does not lend itself to-naili'ng through the edges of. the hoards-,in which case the nails may be. merely passed between the adjacent edges of the boards which are provided with clips otthe type referred to beneath the heads: of the nails;
Also,- where insufiicient support is offered by the studding to the edges: of the boards, I may utilize some of the clips for the purpose of increasing the effectivearea of such support as indicated in Figure I, wherein 3 indicates clips nailed to, the sides: of the said stud so that they may bear against the back of the boards: for such purpose.
Clips of this description may be used to facilitate nailing of wall boards and afford support, reinforcement and protection to such boards under many conditions met with in building construction, and'the added expense to the cost of such construction is almost negligible whilst the advantage gained by the use of clips. is; considerable.
It will be readily understood that these clips may be made in many shapes, weights and sizes to suit certain classes of work or material to which they are to be applied, and I do not wish to limitmyselfto the exact form 0 shown by way of illustrationhat I claim is:-
1- In a wall construction, a support, a wall board applied to said support with its edge overlapping said sup-port, a clip engaging said edge and the adjacent faces of said board and abutting said support and a nail driven through said clip and into said support.
2. In a wall construction, a sup port, a board wall applied to said support with its edge overlapping said support, a clip engaging
