Default Door bell wired wrong

I can't believe I got so many replies on this very serious problem and
question I had regarding my faulty wired front door bell!

I haven't had such a good laugh reading them in such a long time!

We have lived in this same house since June of 1981 with this same
faulty wired door bell and for some strange reason I thought it might
be time to finally see if I could rectify the problem. I guess
because the bell is mounted on the wall in our front entry way hallway
and I just took it down the other day to repaper the wall.

What I should have done was to just fill in the little hole in the
wall where the wires come through and paper over the dang thing and be
done with it. No one has ever come to the house in the past 26 years
and complained that our door bell doesn't work.

I guess I could still take the stupid bell back off the wall and hang
a picture over the little hole............

Thanks for the many ideas - it made my day!

I wonder where Ellie May is? Out by the ce-ment pond?
