Clark, Jr., received his education in the local public schools and after completing his schooling entered the printing business independently in 1903.

He carried on his trade with the aid of his personally constructed press until he prospered sufficiently to afford the purchase of a small Kelsey Press, which he installed and used for about a year. Business increased rapidly and he bought a small Liberty Press and later added a Gordon Press continuing to add new equipment and machinery to accommodate the ever increasing demands for his work…" – “Maine Biographies” by Harrie B.
