DEDICATION To you, Mrs. Scott, We dedicate this annual as a tribute to the inspiration We have received through your guidance during the school year. An annual seems a small tribute to pay to so lovely a person, but We can do little more than dedicate the VALENCIA and our loyalty to one who deserves all the honor and good that may be bestowed upon her throughout life.

FRGM OUR DIRECTOR The VALENCIA with its happy recordings of Mabelle Scott Rancho activities for the past year, reminds me that another school year is about to close and that it is time to bid farewell to my beloved seniors! It has been a Wonderful year, filled with happiness through close association, memories of which will remain with each and everyone of us throughout the years to come. I am proud of my large graduating class. I know that you will prove to the World that you have profited by the training you have received here with us. The VALENCIA staff has chosen a theme which is symbolic of the Rancho Ideals,-"See no evil, hear no evil: speak no evil," suggested by the little statue of "The Three Wise Monkeys," which has adorned my desk for many years. These three virtues are the basic principles on which we have built the characters of the girls Who have called the Mabelle Scott Rancho School their Alma Mater. May the happiness and inspiration that has been ours the past year, continue to influence your lives wherever you may go. eMabe1le Scott

f EDITORIAL Beauty sat on her throne in the sky and looked down on the multitude below. How few of the people, she thought, realized that she was supreme, that if they thought of her, their lives Would be completely happy. She wondered how many of the individuals had followed the example of the three wise monkeys when they said, "See no evilg hear no evil: speak no evil." She contem- plated upon her importance to the existing fancies which ran through the minds of the people, and hoped that they realized that she was not only Beauty in the true sense of the word, but that she stood for ultimate perfection, goodness, and cleanliness in thought, word, and deed. Evil sat on his couch of thorns and a deep frown lined his forehead. The three wise monkeys had made people realize that he was of no earthly good. As lonq as the people kept their cogitations and acts occupied with Beauty, there was no room for him in their many medi- tations. The monkeys had brought the people to the reali- zation that there was Evil to contend with, but that Beauty could overshadow any of his acts, if they would only look upon her as the greater of the two. So the three monkeys brought about the final destruc- tion of Evil to perpetuate in the minds of the people, Beauty.
