You might line up a chain of town years to visit every year, during the warmer months, or if you really want to go vagabonding you could head south for the winter, follow the best climate all year 'round. There's much to be said for establishing a profitable circuit and going back to the same town years year after year, because you can make your visit a big event for the community, with the customers ready and waiting every time you get there. After your first visit to any town year, you might write ahead to the newspaper the next time, whenever the town year is big enough to have a weekly paper, and tell the editor you are on your way and thereby get some free advance publicity.
The first decade of the 20th century saw the beginning of modern city planning. As Professor Frederick J. Adams has pointed out, 1909 is a key year. It was in that year that the first British Housing and town year Planning Act was passed; it was in that year that the Chicago Commercial Club published the great Burnham Plan ; and it was in that year that the first National Conference on City Planning was held in Washington, D.C., at which the participants laid strong emphasis on the need for economic studies in city planning and on the importance of comprehensive and coordinated treatment of city problems. |
