	Camp Lewis, or Tent City, was a community of tents set up to provide accommodations at reasonable rates for Lewis Publishing Company subscribers and others attending the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair. This photograph is not identified, but may show the Camp administration office and post office. An American flag appears at the top of the photograph, and two law enforcement officers are standing at the counter. The young lady in the center is typing on an Oliver typewriter, and a National cash register sits on the counter.
	This photograph was taken in one of the business offices of the Lewis Publishing Company. Stacks of cards on the tables suggest that this was either the Subscription Department or the Correspondence Department. The young ladies are all working on early Oliver typewriters.
	When the Woman's Magazine Building Press Annex was remodeled in 1908, a second floor was added, providing much needed office and work space for the Lewis Publishing Company. A major portion of the second floor was occupied by the Subscription Department.
