Washington-(RS)-The sup

al government may not levy a tax
of up to $1,000 against those who

Its chief reason was that the

GRIMSTEAD GIVEN
TO- YEAR SENTENCE
IN MCFATE ATTACK
Sentence Later Suspended
On Recommendation of
Carbon Sheriff

Sam H. >Grimstead, 55-year-old
Saltwater county farmer charged
with first degree assault on Sher-
iff J. R. McFate of Carbon county
while the officer was member Of
a local hunting party last Sept
enIber % in the Fiddler creek coun-
try of Saltwater, pleaded guilty
to the charge at Saltwater county
district court session at Columbus
last Wednesday afternoon and was
sentenced to a ten-year term in
states prison at Deer Lodge by
Judge o. F. Goddard.
Grimstead's prison sentence was
later suspended by Judge God
dard on recommendation of Sheriff
McFate, who lost his right eye as
the result of injuries received in
the assault by the Saltwater coun-
ty man.
In recommending leniency, Coun-
ty Attorney E. P. Conwell Of Car
bon, representing McFate at the
proceedings Wednesday,, told the
court that a $1,500 settlement had
been arranged between Grimstead
and the Carbon sheriff under which
the Saltwater farmer signed over
to McFate a one-year chattel mort
gage and a three-year mortgage
on his ranch property on Fiddler
creek.
It was on this same property
that Sheriff McFate, while grouse
hunting with his undersheriff, w.
HI. Moore, Jr.; his son-in-law,
George; Thompson, and Ray Gebo
and G. M. Downs, all of, this city,
was attacked by GFiinstead last
September. -
It was recalled here that, at the
time, McF'ate, who secured his bag
limit ahead of the others, returned
alone to the party's car, parked on
Grimstead's property. While re-
clining on the ground near the
parked automobile, awaiting the
return of the other members of his |
party, McFate was approached by !
two men, later identified as Grim
stead and Chris Thompson, Grim
stead's tenant on the property.
Thompson advised McFate that !
the party was trespassing on the !
property and McFate answered
that, if he and his companions were
trespassing, they were doing so
unawares. He offered to pay SIS
for the right to hunt on the place
and Thompson, agreeing, accepted
the money.
While replacing his wallet after
paying Thompson the money, Nc
Fate, who had remained in his re-
clining position on the ground
during the transaction, was ap-
preached from behind and struck
over the right eye. The weapon
used was not determined, but it
was believed to have been a chisel
or other sharp-edged instrument,
as the blow penetrated the eyelid /
into the eyeball. Grimstead, how
ever, told the court Wednesday
that he kicked McFate with the !
leather heel of a new shoe. He
said injury was not intended and
further stated that, at the time, he
did not know who McFate was, or
that a settlement had been made '
with Thompson for hunting on the
property. il

 My school luncheon standby is soup, made sometimes with meat etock and sometimes with milk. Al- wAys t has lots of vegetables in t.
 The accompaniment for the soup adds much to the interest of the meal. CroutOns. Beiba chips and toast sticks are easy to make and use stale bread to spendid advant- age.
 To make Melba chips, cut stale French rolls in very thin slices, crosswise of the roll. The slices shouldn't be more than an eighth of an inch thick. Spread on . shall low pan and put in slow oven until crisp and brown throughout. Use Fine GrMin Bread.
 Toast Me1ba is made Of bread cut as thin as a wafer and toasted until crisp ana brown in . slow oven. You can buy this iIf pack agee, too. To make choutons some cooks dip the neat cubes of bread fin melted butter and then brown them in a moderate oven. Others drop the cubes into deep hot fat and fry them q golden brown in sixty seconds. 1 A fine, close grained texture in bread is important for croutons and 1t must be stale but not too dry. Cut in slices about one-half inch thick, remove crusts and cut each slice into cubes with a very. sharp knife. Tne sharp Knife means much, too, because the cubes must be smoth and clean cut. Dry them untif they are crisp through. After this they may be toasted or fried in deep fat.

 "Oh, some quarter moon," he had answered carelessly. That's al- ways been my lucky sign."
 They never let her see him again. When she tried. they told her very firmly that MT. Deal thought 1t was best for MT. Hunter not to be disturbed. So Bertha Gibbs went back to Worthwhile, to the empty old house there, and set herself the task of keeping it in- tact against his coming. Her childish mind seized on those two remarks concerning the blue door and the quarter moon. and out of them she evolved her ritual of l painting the door a brilliant blie every four weeks. It was her own strange secret.
