The order you listed is the chronological run of the in-universe timeline. Triplanetary kicks off the series, and the same characters pick up in First Lensmen. Galactic Patrol takes place after a timeskip, and the hero from there continues in Grey Lensman...and so on.
I don't think you'll really suffer if you read them in this order. I did. But EML makes a good case. Because Galactic Patrol is a MUCH better introductions to the universe than Triplanetary and First Lensman.
Much better.
