Dr. Lees Plans to Organize Party
and Visit Europe.
The progress of a people, it is said
can almost be estimated b theii tiav
cls tlirougli foreign lands The influ
ence of travel on education, too. has
long been iccognized, but up to iom
paratlvcly recent times only the ver.v
rich could aail themselves of the op
portunities offered, and it was theie
forc practical! confined to centeis uf
wealth in our eastern states As a e on
sequencn people on this side of the Mis
siBsippi were regarded by the eastemets
as rather backward in civilization and
refinement. This belief, how.evei, is
being rapidly dispelled, for with the
development of the webt and the in
ducements and facilities of transporta
tion, people from the so-called west are
beginning to travel moie ever car
In this respect Nebraska is perhaps in
tho lead, as well she should be.
