Foreword
As a part of
the study of United States History and Government, our eighth grade students
learn about the government of communities through a study of the history and
government of their own community. For many years the instructional material
for a part of this study, that of Burbank's early history, has been taken from
the booklet, The Story of Burbank From Her Eventful Pioneer Days, published by
the Magnolia Park Chamber of Commerce, and from the booklet, A Brief History of
Burbank, California, printed by the city of Burbank. The supply of these
materials has dwindled to the point that there are not sufficient copies to
supply the eighth grade students and this booklet has been compiled, using much
the same text and pictures, to meet this instructional need.
