traverse. Each nobleman was provided with
little flock four OF the fowls of his fancy, and
of course betting was high In favor of the tur-

waddling rivals and left them far behind, So
things went all day, but as dusk came on the

Bancroft may be a name derived
from bane or haynes, meaning white,
or fair, and croft, an Anglo-Saxon
word for a small enclosed field.
In some parts of Scotland, and the
Orkney and Shetland isles, crofters
are small holders of land The term
Is now almost wholly confined to the
western highlands.
Bancroft may mean small, white

ash trees grow, and Allcroft or Hall

About the only variations of Bancroft
are Bancraft and Bancreaft.
We have no records of any of the
family crossing the channel from

tiquity of prominent families and that
their ancestors came over with the
Conqueror, John Bright, most sarcas-
tic of men where the nobility was con-
cerned, used to reply promptly, Il
never heard that they did anything
else" We, however, are not going
back on the Conqueror's knights be-
cause the Bancroft name is not on

doubtless of Anglo-Saxon origin. They

But 1t is not only In the display of his charms

The fact is, of course, that turkeys
don't come from Turkey, and were un-
known before the discovery of Amer
lea, in the north of which continent
the wild turkey still roams in unre-
strained freedom, though not, alas, in
undiminished numbers.
When the enterprising Spaniards
began to explore the resources of the
new world that Columbus had opened
out for them, they found that the ma
tves had tanned big bird, which they
regarded as sort Of peacock; and it
was not long after the discovery OF
America that the new bird made his
appearance in European poultry yards.
Great must have been the disgust
OF the original occupants Of these

thing he was much bigger than any
OF them, and could look down on
them in the most literal sense. He
was also fully aware of the Importance
OF his expensive personality and lost
no time In impressing It on all and

reigned supreme both as an artist in
posing and as a table delicacy-the
