To Inform, Why Frisco
 Is Not Used

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 20.- The world at large is soon to be informed that there are seventeen "Frisco's" in the United States but that none of these towns or cities is located in California.
 A committee representing the California Club, joined by the Daughters of California Pioneers Club, is engaged in compiling a folder to accomplish this very purpose.
 In 1905 the same influences brought forth from the State Legislature an appeal to Presi- dent Roosevelt and the Postmas- ter General urging that Spanish names given to cities and towns be preserved, but it is found the use of the objectionable abbre- viation is again becoming cur rent.
 To those who contend that Frisco is a dlminutive imply ing affection, more or less. the answer is to be given that his particular city was named after a Saint and that it is unbecoming to give a Saint nickname.
