"Why do you call this the music-room? " asked Patty; "there's no piano in / it, nor any musical instrument that I can see."
"That's just the reason why," replied Nan. "I christened the room myself, / and I called it the music-room because it hasn't anything musical in it. I / get so tired of seeing music-rooms filled with pianos and banjos and / mandolins and guitars. This is a refreshing change. And besides, when we / want music we can sing."
