INTRODUCTORY
CHAMPAIGN
When the Illinois Central Railroad built from Chicago to Cairo in the early 50s they passed through Champaign County two miles West of Urbana. In 1854 a vil- lage was started on the site of the present city. This village was first called West Urbana but the citizens seeking a more distinctive nomenclature the name was changed to Champaign.
In 1860 the village was incorporated as a city. About this time a small educa- tional institution grew up between the two villages. Agitation was started for a state university which was awarded to Champaign and Urbana in 1867. The price paid to the state to get the university was $100,000 in Champaign County bonds, pay- able in ten years, at 10 per cent interest ; a gift in fee simple of the Urbana and Champaign Institute buildings and grounds of ten acres, 160 acres of land adjoining, 400 acres of close-by farmland, $50,000 worth of freight-free haulage donated by the Illinois Central Railroad and $2,000 worth of trees and shrubbery given by the M. L. Dunlap nurseries. The value of the entire prize hung up totaled, it is esti- mated, about $450,000.
Because of its railroad connection Cham- paign rapidly grew and today its stores serve the community of Champaign and Urbana as well as a wide range of country outside the limits of the two cities.
Champaign has commission form of gov- ernment with four commissioners and a mayor who give practically their entire time to city business. The local transpor- tation facilities, electric light service, gas service, water supply, sewage disposal and telegraph service of the two communities are combined.
Champaign is primarily a university eity and its business is built closely around the university and its activities. The Illinois Central shops in Champaign employ 475 men and is the largest single industry. Sev- eral industries are thriving in Champaign. Two new industries employing 250 men and women were located in Champaign during the past year. and there is a move- ment on foot to bring more industries to Champaign providing they fit into the community.
Transportation facilities in Champaign are entirely adequate. It is served with four railroads, three paved state highways, and many county paved roads. Champaign is said to be the natural down-state traffic center of Illinois.
The large memorial stadium of the Uni- versity of Illinois is located in Champaign and the football games held in the stadium draw approximately 100,000 people to Champaign every fall.

URBANA
When Champaign county was created in 1833, Urbana was founded as its county seat.
The name of the county and county seat were after similar county seat and city in Ohio. The name Urbana is derived from the word Urbanity. The county offices were established. the Court House erected and the business of the county has been conducted in Urbana from that time until this.
When the legislature of the state of Illi- nois decided to take advantage of the pro- visions of "The Morill Act" providing land grants for state institutions of higher learning by creating such a university for Illinois, the enterprising citizens of Urbana and Champaign county succeeded in per- manently locating it in Urbana.
The educational facilities in Urbana com- inence with the common schools, of which there are seven, includes two modern high schools and concludes with the University of Illinois. The University campus and adjacent experiment fields consists of 2642 acres of land, with SO buildings of the mnost modern character, while the enroll- ment for the year 1929-30 is 11.000 student with over 1161 professors and instructors and a total staff of almost 2,300 people Urbana has won fame as a residential city. Perhaps there is no city anywhere having a larger per cent of college trained citizens. The per cent of illiteracy in Urbana is considerably less than one per cent, while 36 per cent of its residents of school age are enrolled in its two high schools. Furthermore, fully S5 per cent of the residents of Urbana are home owners. . Urbana, "the crossroads of the Corn Belt." has sixty miles of paved streets. All the streets are well lighted by a system of ornamental boulevard lighting standards. Sanitation is unsurpassed, while. the water

supply comes from numbers of deep wells.
Urbana with a population of approxi- mately 15,000, is also a city of parks. While the University campus may be considered one large park, Urbana has a park system of unusual attractiveness. The principal park of the system is Crystal Lake park, comprising some one hundred and ten acres of shrubs, oaks, grass and water made easily accessible by beautiful drives and walks. The clear water of the lake af- fords splendid boating in the summer and skating in the winter, while its pavilion, shelter house, modern play ground for children and outdoor swimming pool at- tract visitors for many miles about. The other parks, while not so large, are very attractive.
In Urbana twenty churches guide the spiritual welfare of its citizens; the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, and Campfire Girls provide recreation and training for the children, while the Association of Com- merce, the Rotary Club, the Exchange Club and the various fraternal societies afford ineans for the practice of good-fellowship characteristic of Urbana's citizens.
Although Urbana is paramount in its civic interests it is also represented by sound commercial and industrial concerns. No city has more solid financial institu- tions than the banks of Urbana, their ag- gregate deposits reaching several millions of dollars. Its building and loan associa- tions are among the strongest in the coun- ty. Every branch of retail trade is rep- resented among Urbana's stores, which provide for the wants of the community. Among the manufacturing enterprises in Urbana, are manufacturers of knock-down bleachers, toy balloons, butter and other dairy products, discuses, javelins and other athletic supplies, electrical supplies, chem- ical supplies, paints, castings, dehorners, cigars, harness, ice cream, burial vaults, mausoleums, high powered microscopic lenses, scientific instruments, waste re- claiming, X-ray apparatus, concrete orna-
ments for yard and home, Urbana is also the home of general laboratories, chief of which is the plant of the Urbana La- boratories, Inc., makers of seed cultures and many others.
In Urbana are located the shops of the Peoria and Eastern railway, a division of the New York Central Lines, which em- ploy the largest number of men in any sin- gle industry in the city.
Urbana possesses very adequate trans- portation facilities, including Peoria and Eastern Railway, giving services to the east and west; the branch line of the Wabash running to Sidney connects with the main line between St. Louis and the east, while the Illinois Central affords fre- quent services to Chicago and the south. "A train your way every hour of the day" is provided by the Illinois Traction Sys- tem, with accommodations east and west, a bus line runs to Chicago and St. Louis. Connections are made at Glover by trolley with the Chicago and Eastern Illinois railroad company for Chicago and St. Louis. Three state paved highways and many paved county roads extend in all (lirections.
Among the other points of interest in the "city of opportunity" ,are, the Samuel T. Busey library, the Outlook Tuberculosis Sanitarium, Cunningham Home for chil- dren, Mercy Hospital, The Eastern Illinois Memorial sanitarium, the most up-to-date sanitary disposal plant in the country, a 100 acre, eighteen hole golf course and country club, the Wesley Foundation and the state and government experiment sta- tions, and the Urbana park board's new $100,000 outdoor swimming pool, "Illinois finest," and the new $250,000 First Metho- dist Episcopal church. .
An authority writes: "Urbana ... home of the most important manufacturing plant in Illinois ... that plant is the Uni- versity of Illinois. Its raw materials are youth and ambition. Its product is men and women."
