ing. He does an interest-
ing forward role into a
laid out position on his
back so his tummy can be
rubbed.
He gets along with other
dogs and loves to play. He
hasn’t been in contact
with children or cats, but
his general demeanor is
laid-back and submissive.
He would probably do OK
with older kids.

Jack is a 60 pound, one-
year old Catahoula mix
with the power to always
make me smile. As I walk
to the kennel he begins to
whimper and bay, all the
time jumping and turning
in circles. When I open the
gate, he changes to verti-
cal jumps from the previ-
ous whirlwinds. Not sure
whether he wants to run
laps in the yard or stick
around for petting and
other assorted affection,
he sprints for a few yards
and turns and sprints
back - both directions at
full speed.
Jack is sweet, loveable,
energetic and intelligent.
He needs lots of exercise
and stimulation. Even
during petting sessions,
he has trouble sitting still

A brand new exhibit to
thrill the hearts of rail-
road buffs has opened at
the Elgin Depot Museum.
The museum has re-
ceived a private collection
from the estate of Charlie
Goertz. Previously, Char-
lie himself donated his ex-
ceptional library of
railroad books to the mu-
seum.
The materials on display
now are from a "collec-
tor's collector" — a man
who lived and breathed
trains, their history and
lore. A small taste of the
items include old railroad
calendars, railroad maga-
zines, railroad catalogs,
old train timetables, beau-
