KING JAMES STARTED
'POPULARITY OF GOBBLERS
In the Middle Ages, Christ-
mas was a great churchsfestivais
ecisbrated in medieval times by
the King and his barons, by the
clergy, and by practically no-
body else.
Gradually the observance be-
carne_widespread and by the,
time Henry Vill was on the
throne of England, it was a red
letter day throughout the realm.
Edward VI preserved its cus-
toms with great lavishness, as
did Que,en Elizabeth during the
latter Noll of her rule.
Earlier English noblemen may
have tried serving turkey at
Christmas at one time or an-
other, but it was really James I
who was given credit for -it.
