The inside of the "Egyptian Building."

The President's Office in the Woman's National Daily Building also served as the Directors' Room and the office for the managing editor of "The Woman's National Daily," George W. Stearns. Mr. Stearns is at the table facing forward. This room was on the upper level of the front pylon, and was decorated by artist Ralph Chesley Ott in the same striking Egyptian motif as the rest of the building. This motif was even carried through to the large stained glass skylight above the table. This photograph appeared in "The Woman's National Daily" on June 11, 1909 as part of a series called "Views of the Lewis Publishing Co.'s Great Plants in University City.
