Canada Girl Abroad Captures San Francisco Tale
A Parisian Riverside item notes a Canadian girl in San Francisco who married a Friscan four years ago. The story recalls the man bringing her to a sunlit life, while she sits with feet on a refrigerator and jingles the dinner bell, claiming she is 90 homesick and needs to do something. A separate snippet mentions crude petroleum powering Brooklyn engines at one fifth the cost of coal with no sparks, and world meat consumption figures show the United States at 120 pounds per person, England 104, France with a missing value, Germany 69 pounds.
