[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1480516, member: 18945"] Same with the house I grew up in and when my grandmother came to visit every winter, that string was extended out to her headboard so she could turn the light on to get up and use the slop jar. I think ours did have porcelain fixtures but had the old cloth covered wiring. Some, there was no switch..you reached up and just unscrewed the bulb a little. It was knob and tube in the attic and down the inside of the walls. We thought it a huge step up and great advancement when my father installed a big florescent light in the kitchen. By today's standards it would be ugly as hades since it came from an old boiler room that was torn down at the refinery my father worked at but my mother was tickled to have it. [/QUOTE]
