sured fact, Within six months no lens than
GOO persons, and in all probability, 5,000 per
sons, will be engaged in the manufacture
and production of "Rialto" "Made-in-Oma-ha"
films. The cornerstone laying for
this project with which you are already more
or less familiar, will be celebrated next Sat
urday afternoon. Omaha will gain interna
tional prominence by reason of being the
home of "RIALTO" films. ,
"RIALTO CITY" will cover a IGO-acrc tract, lo
cated in Ralston-Omaha. The manufacture
and production of films will proceed day and
night, winter and summer, rain or shine.
Ralston-Omaha is the most ideal location in
the United States for such an enterprise.
"RIALTO CITY" will be the most important
factor in the world 's motion picture industry.
Plans for the Film City are drawn and ready
for execution. Construction of stullios,
stages, buildings and other institutions
necessary will go forward immediately.
No Stock Will Be Offered For Sale. The capi
tal necessary is already provided for. The
organization is all assembled, ready for the
signal to set it tin motion.
The Rialto Realty Company has several hun
dred lots .in Ralston-Omaha not needed in
the film enterprise, as the 100-acre tract
will be amply large enough. The remainder
of the holdings will be sold THIS WEEK at
astonishingly low prices.
It Is the Purpose of the Promulgators of this
enterprise to give Ralston-Omaha an in
creased population within twelve months.
We are going into this natural garden spot

success, financially, artistically and scien
tifically. In so doing, we make Ralston
Omaha a model community. We want none
but progressive, constructive citizens, who
do their part by developing their holdings to
hharo our prosivrity.
