The piano is often neglected by the
otherwise careful housewife, for the
simple reason that her attention is
seldom, if ever, called to its care. It
seems to some if the tuner arrives
periodically and the instrument is
carefully dusted that is all there is to
the care of the piano.
However, the piano is a very deli-
cate instrument, as all musicians
know, and requires very watchful care.
The first consideration is the position
of the piano. Often the only object in
placing a piano is to have the beat
light fall on the music rack But the
piano should not be placed too near
the outer wall, the fireplace or radia-
tor, as it is subject to the Influences
of the atmosphere.
Extreme heat and extreme cold are
very harmful to the piano. If one
wishes to have a musical instrument
