FOREWORD Years ago, before Valparaiso was known by that name, it happened that some Spanish sailors visited our town, then called Portersville. That visit changed the whole history of Valparaiso. One of the sailors, glancing over at the s quare, which was heavily wooded, remarked, What a Vale of Paradise! Bystanders, straightway, wanted to know why. The sailors then launched into a lengthy description of Valparaiso, Chile, its won- drous climate, its beautiful surroundings. The citizens, being proud of their little city, decided the name should be changed to Valparaiso. Thus our fair city has been known from then on. In publishing this volume of the Valenian, we have endeavored, by featuring a Spanish theme, to bring forth the meaning and significance of the name of our city. We sincerely hope we will be able to do this in appreciation of Valparaiso. Page Four
