PORTRAIT

 

JAMES A. KELLY was born in Oxford township, Butler county, Ohio, Feb. 18, 1856.  In his early manhood he passed directly into the profession which he has made his life work.  Three years later he pursued a special course in pedagogy at the well known National Normal University at Lebanon, which completed an education of the highest order.  Not long after Professor Kelly's claim upon the public recognition were fulfilled by his election to the place he now occupies, and his record in it covering so many years, fully indicates the judgment of those who first chose him to the place.  For fifteen years he has been principal of the First ward schools, and the fact that he has survived so many changes of municipal administrations and has administered his important trust with such uniform credit to himself and satisfaction to his constituency, bespeaks his ability in his, the highest of all secular professions.  He is a thoroughly popular man, knowing and known to everybody.  He is a leading Elk and a member of the Y. M. I. and the A. S. of C.
