Splendid South City Hospital
One day last week the editor of the Record visited the South San Francisco General Hospital that was recently established by Dr. H.G. PLYMIRE, and through the courtesy of that genial gentleman was shown through the institution.
Perfect nearness, the most essential thing in a first-class hospital, was noticed in every detail. The operating rooms, the wards, private rooms, dinning rooms and kitchen, all showed perfect order, including the well arranged office and reception rooms.
While not familiar with such things, the equipment such as X-ray, apparatus, surgical instruments, sterilizing facilities and all else that seemed essential, were unquestionably first-class and the very best that can be procured.
Dr. PLYMIRE is naturally very proud of this hospital and well he may be, for it equals anything in San Francisco. In fact, it has many advantages over the large hospitals in the insuring of better care and is more reasonable in price.

SAN MATEO BOYS VANISH
The two sons of A.L. GRAHAM, western manager of the International Correspondence Schools, disappeared Friday from their home in San Mateo Park while their father was away on a trip to Santa Rosa.
Constable Michael SHEEHAN, who has been asked to find the missing boys, in uncertain whether they have just run away or been kidnapped by their mother, recently divorced from GRAHAM and who lost the custody of her four children, the boys and two girls. Mrs. GRAHAM’s whereabouts are not known to the family.
GRAHAM’s married sister, with servants, has had the care of the children. The boys – Albert , aged twelve years, and Norris, aged nine years – have been traveling from their home to school on bicycles. It was on such a trip that they vanished, leaving absolutely no clew as to where they went.
**
The San Mateo Board of Supervisors met in an adjourned meeting Monday with all members present except BLACKBURN.
A.G.C. HAHN resigned as a member of the Mosquito Commission and Harold P. BROWN of Anthony was appointed in his stead.
Surveyor NEUMAN in a communication withdrew his resignation, in which he stated that he would not likely be a candidate to succeed himself and considered that it would be best for the county to make the change now. He asked that some other arrangement be made for securing rights of way so that he might be relieved from that extra duty.
