cf flmlmf In all phases of economic, political, and social life men have recognized the need for education and more education. So it was that Lester E. Clarke came to Tri-State College. The motive behind his great desire to earn a college degree was not economic stability nor social advancement. These he had already achieved. Rather it was for the purpose of better understanding the world about him and aiding his fellow man. Few men possess the vision and drive to lead and at the same tinze the humility and the sense of duty to follow. Lester Clarlze had both. Because he had spent some twenty years in the United States Army and had achieved the rank of Lieutenant Colonel, it was only natural that respect and admiration should be forthcoming from his fellow students. At a time of life when many men are desirous of peace and relaxa- tion, he actively participated in all phases of campus life, few have devoted more time to furthering the interests of Tri-State or held more offices in various school organiza- tions. In the short space of Jive terms, he became such an integral part of campus life that his going leaves a gap difficult to pil. The Colonel will long be remembered by his fraternity brothers, the American Legion, and other organizations for his willingness to lend his whole-hearted support to their activities. He will be remember by his instructors for his class contributions and his understanding of their efforts. His family and friends may rejoice in having known one who asked so little and gave so much. Lester Clarlce's philosophy was one based upon a truly deep joy in each passing moment. He took the commonplace events of everyday living and with his personality illuminated them with happiness for those about him. At the same time he had a sense of basic, eternal values. Perhaps no better expression of the philosophy that guided his life can be found than in his own words: I try to live each moment, each day as though it were my last, and yet as though I expect to live forever. In the hope that we all may emulate his ideals of service and his philosophy of life, we of the Modulus staff dedicate this 1953 edition to the man who would, had he lived, have been its editor. May his spirit, his ideals, and his conscientious application of the Golden Rule long remain an inspiration to us.
