He began his education in a country school near his home, completing his studies in Grove City College. For thirteen years he was a school teacher, holding positions in Beaver County, Pennsylvania, and in Macon County, Illinois, after which he was in the mercantile business in Wurtemberg, Pennsylvania, in which place he was postmaster for three years. He moved to Ellwood City, Pennsylvania, and for eight years was a contractor, owning and conducting a lumber yard in connection with his first-named line, for the five years following being proprietor of a grocery store. Selling this business, after one year as a wholesale liquor dealer, he moved to Beaver Falls, where under his direction a new building which had been erected at the corner of Fourteenth street and Seventh avenue was converted into a modernly equipped hotel, which beginning in 1906 was conducted by him as the Hotel Phillis, with profit and success.
