There are two schools of thought:
If you intend to sell the card, or if you plan to pass it on to your wife or children (yes, if it is indeed authentic, it's worth some money), or if you're an investor, then by all means have it graded.
If you are a hobbyist, interested in cards and the history of the game, then keep it ungraded and enjoy having a Babe Ruth card. You might want to consider placing it, and any other valuable cards you might have, into a safe deposit box.
