A STATEMENT BY YOUR
GAS COMPANY
The Gas Company In Gastonia has
passed Into the hands of new owners,
and will hereafter be known as the
GASTONIA & SUBURBAN GAS
COMPANY
The new owners are desirous of
making this company as efficient and
satisfactory as any In the South.
Due to the tremendously increased
cost of both manufacturing materials
and labor, the company Is forced to
see that all of Its services are in tbe
hands of actual consumers. For this
reason there will be a minimum
charge of One Dollar per month, be
ginning August 1st, to all consumers
who have used less than 700 feet of
gas in either regular or prepayment
meters.
This will not effect consumers who
use gas regularly, and will effect no
hardship on those who are not regu
lar consumers.
