The Investment company ha 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 120 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 propor tions where such movements as started by the Oakrldge Investment company must be recognised as one of the greatest fac tors of good for It means that working people, who are better boused and at the same time are afforded opportunity to save their earnings, will not only be more contended 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 aa this improvement on real estate and when Its great commercial bodies reach out or business In an agreeslve way such as la being dona this week by the men on the trad excursion and where both business men and property owners combine in effec tual efforts to make the city attractive to working people as a place to 4ork and earn, live and prosper."
