IHE undersigned Company is experiencing a little
adverse propaganda in Bellefonte, especially in ref-
erence to the ‘service charge”, which is part of our
Rate Schedule.
It is possible to eliminate this charge by assuming a
higher rate for gas consumed, but a just and scientific
distribution of charges for a public utility has to in-
clude this charge, which is independent of consumption.
This rate will be charged from the day your meter
cock is opened to actually supply gas to your appliance,
and will be payable thirty days thereafter.
installed now are closed and will be opened after the
gas is on the line.
If there is any information you want concerning
gas service, please call the Company's of
401.
