' 1 ,, FOREWORD In assuming the responsibilities of the 1924 ACORN, the staff early pledged itself to produce a worthy record of the progress, purposes, and events of the Coe of Today. The pages before you are our only testimony to steadfast loyalty to the best Coe traditions, to honest and unstinted effort, and to an unfailing desire to do our part toward the realization of the school of our dreams, a Greater Coe. VVith the presentation of this, the twenty- second yearabook of Coe College, our labor is complete. VVe do not claim perfection, we ask no praise. Our one desire is that this, our Work, may recall to you more vividly the achievements of the year, the pleasant recollections of those dear undergraduate days at Coe, and that later years may find this volume a cherished posses- sion, prized for old memories of ivy-covered walls and familiar spots where kindly faces once smiled upon you. And as years pass by, may this, the 1924 ACORN, help keep alive the fires of the old Coe Spirit, and a steadfast love for Alma lldater.
