Excerpt from Eleventh Annual Meeting and Dinner, January 8, 1909, Vol. 4: Annual Reports of the Officers and Standing Committees, Election of Officers, the Dinner an Toasts The chronicle Of life in an Old and well established county like ours is often devoid of that stirring incident and noble romance which give dramatic point to a tale; though the record of the Daily Press makes it evident that the grosser and baser elements Of human nature are active in our history now as ever. It should be the chief object of the historian to present the services, especially the heroic services, which men have ren dered to their community; since it is for services, and not merely for power, that men will ultimately be judged. In municipal and industrial matters, we notice that, on January 6th, the Police Committee of the Lebanon Councils ar ranged for the introduction of twenty - two new incandescent and fifteen new arc lights in the streets of the city. On the same date, the American Iron and Steel Company resumed operations at the East and West Works of this city. Several thousand men who had been out of employment for weeks were again given work. On January 23d, an application for the incorporation of East Lebanon was filed. It bore the signa ture Of eighty-eight property-holders, and proposed to include all the territory lying north and east of Front and Cumberland streets to an imaginary boundary line, north of the Union Canal and eastward as far as Avon.
