Music in the $\mathcal{O}$ Summer Evenings NEARLY everyone likes some kind of music, and all tastes can be suited wherever there is a Pianola in the home. All music can be played with the Pianola and everyone can play it. There is no chance of dulness on those evenings when the rain will come down, where the immense repertoire of the Pianola is available. Classical, light opera, accompaniments and dance music can be played by anyone at a moment’s notice. Music is an essential part of almost all entertainments, and the Pianola is one of the most effective ways of increasing the pleasure of your family and your guests. To be without a Pianola is to be without a constant source of enjoyment, so why remain longer without the ability to play practically all that there is of music? Many of our customers prefer to purchase on the Deferred Payment System, which enables them to have the instrument immediately delivered on a Cash Payment of Five Pounds.
