Chaddock college offers home life for boys in Quincy
Chaddock, a home and school for boys on a 31 acre park campus near Madison and Maine streets, emphasizes natural, motherly care. It blends home atmosphere with modern training, military instruction, and a broad curriculum led by Dean Hugh McPherson. The plan seeks a $100000 endowment and $35000 in new buildings, with Mrs Eva C Frields guiding the staff and pupils from 15 states including a Korean boy and a Boxer-rebellion survivor in China.
