Gas Company Under
New Management
Afe announced tn this paper a
short' time ago the interests of tho
local Gas company have been pur
chased by the Henry L. Doherty
company of New York, the owners
and operators of the Athens Rail
way and Electric Co.
In line with the well, known
Doherty method of operation an
extensive program of improve
ments is being planned for the. Gas
plant here which according to tho
local management will give Athena
<i gas service comparable to the
best in the South.
A survey of all gas and electric
customers is being mado by the
company’s representatives at pres
ent with a view to checking up on
the kfhd and condition of appli
ances in use. As soon as this
survey is completed steps will Im
mediately be taken to remedy any
condition which at present is caus
ing their customers to receive poor
service.
This will doubtless prove a mat
ter of much interest to tho many
liters of the company’s services in
this city.
