6 GOSHEN COLLEGE RECORD. M. CLIFFORD LEHMAN, A.B. Major Subject: Philosophy and Education DHAMTARI, INDIA. Of the number of Seniors who have not been in the class for more than one year, we certainly extend a hearty welcome to Mr. M, Clifford Lehman, who has again return- ed to his Alma Mater after a period of nearly eight years of active work in India. During the year he has proven himself a strong student, and impressed every one with his philosophical turn of mind. In literary and on other public Occasions, when it was learned that Mr .Lehman was to speak everyone was interested, as they all appreciated his speaking ability. In his association with his fellow students he was one of them, and when they once knew him, they enjoy to be in his pres- ence. His loyal and sincere spirit shall long be remembered by his friends.

Impelled by the convictions received under the influences of this school one of its sons has given his life for the spiritually destitute in India. Service and culture have been prom- intent words in the history of this in- stitution. These two ideas have pre- meated the thought and feeling of its founders. He whom we regard as the father of this institution by word and deed imbued the spirit of Goshen Col- lege with these basic principles. Woveii in with traditions of our institution the class that graduates on this occasion, has seen them, heard them, and felt them at every turn of its college course. Standing on the threshold of greater a11d more comprehensive acti- vities these words have been transform- ed into beacon lights and guiding stars for our future careers. Definition oi' principles at once so valuable and basic is imperative. The historical development of our modern ideal of culture will be helpful in such definition.
