Hi there, Life at the turn of the 20th century was pretty boring by today's standards. There was no tv, no radio, the telephone had just come into common use, and electrification was in it's infancy. Most people got around on horseback, or horse drawn carriage, or simply walked. Common household appliances like washing machines were almost none existant. People worked much harder and were less productive, but possibly more content. Foods were fresh or dried or salted/canned. Out of season foods were mostly unobtainable. No refrigeration (at least not recognizable by most of us). Mail came by train. Long distance travel was by same or by ship. An ocean crossing depending on the vessel could take up to a month. Not for the faint of heart. San Francisco was a fair size city and had more amenities than folks would have had in smaller more remote places. Public transit was the street railway (ie cable cars). I am sure there are copies of the daily newspaper from this period which could shed much more detailed information on this subject but i hope this helps get you started.

What San Francisco Schools give students laptops to use during the year in school and to take home? Not Universities, but Elementary, Middle or High School. Thanks
The Urban school is one of two high schools in SF that fully support 1:1 apple laptops. I don't know of the second HS, and I believe there to be atleast one middle school, perhaps someone else knows the names.
