Be Built for the Use
Of Working People
Modern in Every Way-Near the
Rourke Base Ball Park on South
Fifteenth Street.

with the filing Of the deed by the Oak
ridge Investment company covering its
property at Fifteen and Vinton streets,

Of an epoch in omaha's growth
The investment company has purchased
this property for the purpose Of building
a set of modern apartment houses that will
meet a requirement that Omaha has long
needed the housing of working people.
The apartments, while affording every
possible convenience and comfort to l0
families will be offered at low rentals,
thereby adding to the saving possibilities.
In speaking Of the plans H. D. Twombly
said: Omaha is rapidly assuming proper
tons where such movements as started
by the Oakridge Investment company must
be recognized as one of the greatest fac
tors of good for it means that working
people who are better housed and at the
same time are afforded opportunity to
save their earnings, will not only be more
contendsd with their lot, but will feel
more strength to achieve greater things
for themselves in the effort to gain indi-
vidual Independence.
The confidence that Omaha people are
showing in the future growth and strength
OF the city is plainly in evidence when
they undertake such movements as this
Improvement on real estate and when its
great commercial bodies reach out for
business In an aggressive way such as is
being done this week by the men on the
trade excursion and where both business
men and property owners combine in effeo-
tual efforts TO make the city attractive
to working people as a place to Work and
earn, live and prosper"
