Kennedy, manager, Orange county division, Southern Counties Gas company, announced this week a new gas appliance sales policy inaugurated by his company the first of this month. Abandoning the sales policy which has been in force for many years, the Southern Counties Gas company has now virtually discontinued the practice of retaining for its own account any retail sales of gas appliances.

"All gas appliance dealers operating on the lines of the company are invited to participate in the company's new sales program," said Mr. Kennedy. Arrangements have been completed with various gas range manufacturers, gas water heater manufacturers and the distributors for Servel gas refrigerators, Hamilton gas clothes dryers and Calcinator incinerators, to provide display appliances for each of the company's display floors. Mr. Kennedy announced the appointment of the following men to the position of Sales Representatives in this area: Arrangements have been completed with various gas range manufacturers, gas water heater manufacturers and the distributors for Servel gas refrigerators, Hamilton gas clothes dryers and Calcinator incinerators, to provide display appliances for each of the company's display floors.
