MOODY'S SCHOOL FOR BOYS.

The San Francisco Pacific gives the result of an interview with Moody with reference to his proposed boys' school at Northfield, Mass., where he has already established a school for girls. Mr. Moody said his idea was to have boys of ten years of age and over earn their own living while getting a good education. He had bought 300 acres of land, and intended to have them work on the farm four hours a day, study four, and play four. The boys would be kept in families of twelve or fifteen, with a Christian matron in charge. He had already secured $50,000 for the enterprise. Two houses were now built. The school would start soon.
