Its note
Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 515.9 Hz, 24 cents flat of C5. The next fifteen are its overtones, and each one draws its own figure: sand gathers on the lines that stay still.

About it
The White House, in Washington, D.C., is the home and office of the president of the United States. It was designed by the architect James Hoban and built from 1792 to 1800, and John Adams was the first president to live there. It has 132 rooms, and its walls are painted white.
Tap it for an evening scene: the fountain on the south lawn shoots up a tall jet that falls back as spray, the lights come on in the windows one by one and the flag ripples at the top of its pole; then the jet sinks and the lights go out again.
