Champ Clark From the great mass of American statesmen there emerge a few who stand preeminent as leaders. One of the most statuesque of these prominent men has made his last contribution to this -world as his soul has passed into eternity. Champ Clark stood out in public affairs as a great man because he endeavored to fulfill the principles of his life. He seemed destined from his youth to become an outstanding figure in any of his undertakings. His massive frame gave him the necessary vitality which permitted him to perform the strenuous duties, not onlj ' of an able lawyer, but of a wide-awake and alert politician, statesman and man of religious worth. The principles of his life — loyalty, frankness and fair- ness — were manifested with sincerity in all of his endeavors. The opportunity to serve his country as a Congressman resulted from his adherence and faithfulness to the principles of the Democratic Party. His competence as a law-maker was recognized when he was elected Speaker of the House of Representatives. It is said that he was the most impartial of all the leaders of that legislative body. This honor resulted from the fulfillment of the principles of his life which were illustrated when he remarked: The worst enemies of our race are those who debauch public opinion. In religion Mr. Clark was a devout Christian. He once said: I am a Campbellite and a Democrat, and I expect to die in the faith of both. From these words, one can plainly see that Christianity was not a sham to this man, but that his convictions were rooted deep in the faith itself. One cannot help but admire such a man as Champ Clark for the splendid manner in which he endeavored to perform his obligations to the church. The principles of life expressed in the service of Champ Clark are recognized by all, but what means more to us as students of Bethany College is the pride he maintained in his relationships to his Alma Mater, since he stood so prominently in affairs of national importance. Champ Clark contributed at various times to Bethany ' s welfare. Those contribu- tions however are insignificant when compai-ed to that larger gift to his .Alma i Iater, a life of service to mankind.
