Barbary Coast was a part <strong>of</strong> <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong>’s <strong>Bohemian</strong>ism because <strong>of</strong> its<br />
unconventionality, for, you know, there is conventionality even in Vice. Here<br />
was the rendezvous <strong>of</strong> sailor men from all parts <strong>of</strong> the world, for here they found<br />
companionship and joviality.<br />

streets <strong>of</strong> <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong> was almost unheard <strong>of</strong>. Since its closing it is becoming<br />

city in the world that always had the reputation <strong>of</strong> guarding its womankind.<br />
