THE ADAIR COUNTY NEWS Dr. W. R. Grissom. -i - - .,-- . No blessing surbasses that of a true friend. The very fact that we enjoy the favor of a noble spirit is a stimulus whose j . effect on .our lives is always toj exalt character and to bring to ' fruitage that which is best in us. There is some encouragement in the fact that we have a disposi tion eyen to respond to whole some influences. It is also reassuring to us. to know that one who has made contribution to our, own lives while here does not cease in that kindly ministry after he has gone. Good men's lives are not buried ' with their bodies. The stream of influence flows stronger and is hallowed by death. The ex pectation that we will be wel comed by familiar friends when we come to that new country cheers the pilgrim here." Those were fortunate who could count W. R. Grissom as a friend. Life was made richer by his good fellowship, and the memory of such a friend is a constant inspiration, and the hope of resuming that happy as sociation is a boon to quicken gratitude. He was a husband and father of unswerving devo tion, as a physician he so wrought as to commend as to commend as almost sacred his noble profession, as a christian he commended the reliion of his Master by the life he lived. "Out of the heart are the issues of life," and the stream of his influence must have come from a fountain of singular purity.
