MISS ELIZABETH KELLY
RETIRES.

After serving as Principal of Nc
Donogh No. school for twenty
eight years, Miss Kelly retired from
the faculty and in doing so has left
a wonderful record behind.
The standard of McDonogh No. 4
school. twenty-eight years ago was
not the very best and it required
some one with an iron hand and
great executive ability, and also one
to win the confidence of the boys to
put this school in order. 1t is not
necessary to state that Miss Kelly
has done these things. The best
reference that Miss Kelly can point
to today would be the product of
that school. representing the young
men of our town who have gone out
in the world and have made sue
cesses. due primarily to the training
and education they have received
under her guidance.
The school today stands out as
one Of the first in the city of New
Orleans. all of which is due to the
generalship of Miss Kelly.
In each school year, the boys who
first feared her at the beginning of
the session loved her at the end of
the session. Her results were OBJ
tanned by kindness and firmness. She
was just in all her dealings.
