The Chart Mr. I. L. Conner W E mark that man as a hero who, at the word of command, unhesitatingly ad- vances toward the field of battle. We know that man to be a hero who, marching faithfully on in his work, knows that each day is bringing him nearer that Veil” which opens for every man but once and closes behind him forever. We revere that man as a hero who, faithful to his creed, fearlessly faces death that he may be faithful to the end; and we who knew Isaac Leland Conner intimately know that he was thrice a hero, for he qualified for this honor under every test. I could have no more difficult task than this effort to express fully the appreciation I have for the work that he did in building this school, and in molding the character of the boys with whom he came in contact. They went to him as boys, and they left him as men — working men with higher ideals of morals and workmanship because of his influence and his love for that work. He was a builder of men. I am writing this to you boys of Tech, in order that you may know what we who worked with him thought of him as a man. I want you to know that the field of honor on which heroes die is a field of honor because heroes march steadfastly forward across that field. The floor of the humblest shop becomes a field of honor when a man like Conner advances steadily across it, upheld by faith, courage, and steadfastness of trust, on to the Last End. Fred S.
