YOU JUST CANT KEEP
A GOOD MAN DOWN
Continued from page ’
They cooked up a plot to gang on
him with the hope of blacking hie
eyes and otherwise disfiguring
him. One big chap was to put the
boxing gloves on with him and
when the going got hot several
others were to pitch in and help
with the kill. The "prof" fell an
easy victim to their plan and eag­
erly accepted the invitation for a
boxing lesson. The gloves were
fastened on. The gladiators took
the center of the arena while the
onlookers formed a convenient
circle. The boxers squared off .The
challenger threw a left hook in the
general direction of the “prof’s"
jaw, but never knew he missed
the mark for a left hook caught
him on the chin and knocked him
cold. The “champ” looked around
to see how many of the seconds
were going to pitch in but all he
saw was heels disappearing down
the hay chutes. That ended the de­
sire to beat up the “Prof."
There are so many yarns of like
nature marking the 11 colorful
years spent by John W. Kerns in
Wallowa county that one edition
of the Miner would not be suffi­
cient. After serving as principal
of the Enterprise school several
years he put in one term as county
superintendent. On one occasion,
while visiting a district school in
the north end of the county he de­
tected a youth making away with
a smaller boy's cap. For calling
attention to the petit larceny act
and getting the cap returned to
the rightful owner, he incurred the
enmity of the culprit’s older bro­
thers. This enmity grew to a point
where Kerns felt warranted in
carrying a gun on subsequent vis­
its to that end of the county.
Forsaking educational pursuits,
Kerns served as deputy sheriff for
a while, finally leaving Wallowa
county and taking up teaching at
Riddle. Since that time he has
taught in Medford, was city sup­
erintendent in Lakeview, lived for
a time in Ashland and returned
to Lake county to homestead at
Summer Lake. There he remained
until moving his family to Ashland
with the expectation of making
this their permanent home. Now
the war has moved in and upset
that plan. But he is taking it with
a smile—in fact, there was just a
bit of warranted boastfulness in
his voice when he told us he was
going to teach again. All of which
leads to the remark that you just
can’t keep a good man down.
