TRAVEL A GREAT EDUCATOR
Its Broadening Influence Begins to Be
Recognized by Americans.
Says Writer

Millions of people never travel. Ris-
ing day after day, they look out upon
the same scenes, go through the same
daily tasks, and tumble into the same
bed again at night, no different than
they were the day before Kathleen
Hill writes in Leslie's.
Each year thousands are travelling
for the first time, not only the wealthy
but the middle class and even the
poorest. They are coming to view
travel not as an extravaganza but as
the price of comfort, health, expert
ence and knowledge. Ocean liners are
veritable floating hotels with ball
rooms, promenades- and Conservatives,
while trains are the last word in COM
fort with their thickly upholstered
seats and handsomely appointed din.
ing cars with up-tO-the-minute service
The educational value of travel is
beginning to have the greatest weight.
Boys and girls who have been to the
best schools help complete their edu-
cation by seeing the world or such
parts Of it as their time and circum-
stances will permit, The grown-u,
who Is wise realizes the broadening il
fiuence Of travel and counts each da.
we'll spent that brings him new expert
ences in foreign fields, No one can fail
to be uplifted by seeing some Of Gods
masterpieces or the handiwork of
man in picture, sculpture, cathedral
and splendid public edif1ces. Nor is
it necessary to leave ones own coun-
try. There is plenty to be seen and
learned in our own homeland, II we
will only go in search Of it.

AUTOMOBILE LICENSE FEES

way Comniesion.)
ARTICLE L..

1t will be admitted at once that good
roads would result in the saving OF
many dollars annually in tires, repairs
and gasoline to every automobile own
ar; l therefore think Ii no more than
fair that he should be called upon to
pny part of the cost of such sys-.
tenn of state roads through an increase
in automobile fees. The automobile
fees received by the secretary OF state
In 1915 we're $924.000. We estimated
that for 1916 they Will reach Sl,30c,.
900, an Increase of $3T5,o00. Even at
an increase of s250,000 per year, In
stead of 1875 600, the automobile fees
at the present rate by 1919 Will amount
to over 100000; by 1923 to $4,000
900 per year. The automobile fees In
Illinois range from SO for ten horse
power machine to SO for machine OF
majority of states ranking with HI
pois the automobile fees run from 80
to $50. 1t, therefore, would not seem
to be out OF place to increase the fees
IN illinois at least so per cent. If this
is done then the automobile fees col
lected in 1919 would be s3000.000; by
1923, $4,J00,000. This increase OF 80
per cent would enable US 20, use su!h-
cient of the automobile license fees to
pay one-half of the principal and in
terest of the bonds, or $1,5o0,000 per
year and then leave ample funds for
the construction and maintenance OF
the balance of the state aid system In
the various counties. This would leave
only si.500.000 to be paid annually
from the general fund, which would
amount to only &c per 500 Of assessed
valuation based upon the present
equalzed assessed valuation of the
state. So,500,000,000. or a little over
1-5c per acre on fnrm lands of Dn-
nois, which bear an average eqnalized
assessed valuation OF about SO per
aero.

ILLINOIS, HARD ROAD PROGRAM.

The Illinois Highway improvement
association has outlined roadbuildins
program for Illinois, the thyee princt-
I,al features of which are as follows:
l. Acceptance OF the federal road
money.
3. Increase In automobile license
fees.
s. A state bond issue of $GO.000,000
for hard roads.
The federal money allotted TO uii-
nois runs from $4,000 In 1915 to ST.
100000 In 1a20--a total of S3,300,O00'
for the five years. In order to get this
money the state VIII have to appropri-
ute IN equal amount each year.
The automobile license fees for 1918
will amount 10 nearly $I,500,000. At
the present rate of increase the an
nuai amount OF such fees Will reach
three million dollars by 1923. This
money all goes into road building. An
increase of 20 per cent In license fees
will add materially to the road funds,
and Will place part of the cost of In
creased roadbuilding on the men who
use the road most, and to whom hard
roads will mean the greatest econ
omy.
The most important part of the asso-l
ciauons program Is the proposal to
bond the state for SEQ, 100000, In order
that we may have within few years
O system of hard roads covering most
OF the main travelled highways of the
state. Commissioner s.. e. Bradt esti-
mates that with this money the state
could build within five years approx
mately 1000 miles of hard, permanent
road, from 10 to Is. feet wide. The
map on the opposite page shows the
tentative plan for such system OF
highways. From Galena to Cairo, from
vincennes to ST. Louis, from Metro
polls to Chicago. the state would be
criss-crossed with a system of roads
that would be passable every day in
the year. This system would reach In
to all but nine of the counties, and
would connect most of the important
towns and county seats. Such a net
work Of hard roads would form the
backbone of complete improved road
system for the entire state. These
state roads would take the heavy traf-
flc. They would soon be supplemented
with macndam or gravel roads built at
county or township expense. The
northern part Of the state already has
a very good system of such roads, and
with the mnin roads improved at stnte
expense gravellng of side roads in 9TH
er sections would proceed rapidly.
Illinois people are pretty well con-
vinced Of the desirability Of hard
roads. We want roads that are sery-
iceable, that we can use every day In
the year. We will not object to paying
for them II we are convinced that we
are going to get our moneys worth.
we don't want to walt 20 years for
hard roads. That is why tho bond is
sne g 90 appealing. The money must

GIRL BABY SHORTAGE;
WOMANS HUNT VAIN
ScOurs City Three Days, But Can't
Find One to ADOPT.

There is a sad dearth of unclaimed
girl babies in the opinion of at least
one woman who has searched Wash
ington in vain for three days to nnd
one to adopt.
She must be a new baby, the newer
the better-this infant who will find
a comfortable home II she can be
located. A brunette, is preferable,
but If a nice, new blonde baby that
doesn't cry, except on extreme provo
cation, can be found-why the
chances are bright for her adoption.
The woman is the mother of a boy
about three years old and wants him
to have some one to play with.
1--WE been looking all over town"
said the mother to a Times reporter
this morning. 'I'm afraid I must
ask The Times to help fe. Won't you
please say 1 am looking for q baby
girl, brunette preferably"
The baby hunter has visited the
Florence Crittenton Home, the Bruen
Home in Georgetown, the Found
ling Hospital, and st. Johns Orphan
age. She reports a bumper crop Of
boy babies seeking homes, but that
isn't what she is seeking. Her hus-
band likes brown eyes; she wants
gray, but they are willing to COM
promise.
She has asked that IL any reader
knows OF such a baby she be told
through The Times
