THANK YOU!
Natl Geo Books
We would like to thank April Gaede and Dresden Harrington for their recent donation of the above National Geographic books to the Mansion.  These two leather bound books bearing Mrs. Conrad's name were found by the donors in a thrift store in Whitefish.  They are numbered Vol. XXII dated July 1911 and Vol. XXIV dated July 1913.  
Our library already had Vol. XXIII dated July 1912, so now we have a set of three consecutive volumes.
ANOTHER THANK YOU!!!
Am Gardening
The American Gardening magazine was donated by Denny Kellogg.  It was in his collection and he wanted to add it to our library.  It is dated January 9th 1897 and has Mrs. Conrad's name on the back page as a postal code.  

Looking at what the family subscribed to provides great insight into what they were interested in and how they lived.
