Gypsy’s Cousin Joy

CHAPTER XII
21/27

We saw two rooms.

One is called the Red Room and one the Green Room.
The Red Room is furnished in red damask and the Green is all green.

They were very handsome, only all the furniture was ranged along the walls, and that made it seem so big and empty.

Father says that's because these rooms are used for receptions, and there is such a crowd.
"There is a Blue Room, too, that visitors are sometimes let into.

Father asked the doorkeeper; but he said, 'The family were at breakfast in it.' That was _eleven o'clock_! I guess I'd like to be a President's daughter, and not have to get up.
