Extending outwardly from the transverse edge opposite the locking detent notch is an indexing or stop tab. A hanger includes a tally attaching means having a recess defined by opposed walls or flanges having grooves formed therein. One of the grooves includes an inwardly directed detent adapted to snap fit into the notch of the tally. The other groove is of stepped configuration in cross section and includes a stop against which the tab abuts when the tally is inserted between the grooves.
