She was a tall young woman, with
pale cheeks and dark linir. She enter-
ed the office on the ground floor,
where the minor °facials had their
quarters, and asked it she could speak
to the Colonial Service Director.
"Yes, but you will have to wait some
time--+ba1f an hour, possibly three-
quarters."
"i'ti wait" she said.
She took a seat on a bench where

Surnames and Their Origin
CLANCY
Varlatlons—Clanchey. Cianchy, Clan-
ole, Clinch, Glancy, DeClaney.
Racial Origin—Irish.
Source—A given name.
Would you recognize "MacFlaut,h-
aidhe" as the same name as Clancy?
Most people wouldn't. Yet it is the
same name,
One form, of course, is the modern
Anglicized and considerably shorten-
ed farm, and the other is the ancient
clan name which until the spread et
Anglo-Norman, or English, power in
Ireland broke up the clan structure of
that population, dominated the coun-
try around Dartry, in County Monog-
ban.
The "Maerlanchaldhe" was an an-
cient clan, its name antedating by
several centuries the formation of
family names in Engiantt. The year
705 A.D. is as close an approximation
as can be made of the date when the
clan was founded.
It derives its name from the given
name of the chieftain, "Fianchaidh,"
which name is generally supposed to
have been derived from the two Celtic
words "flan" and caidh," with mean-
ings of "red complexioned" and
"chaste," qualifications which his
parents undoubtedly observed and
hoped for in him.
Suck a name as MacFlanchaidhe,
however, is a good bit of a strain on
an English-speaking tongue and it was
quite natural in the Anglicizing of the
• name that the "f" ,became suppressed
and eliminated from pronunciation,
leaving the name in some form as
"MacLaneby." The "c" swinging over
fro:mthe prefix to the name itself
gives the basis for the modernforms
after the elimination of the "mac."
JORDAN
Variations—Jordanson, Jordson, Jur-
dan, Judd, Juddson, Judson.
Racial Origin—English.
Source --A given name.
Family names in this group are
unique in that they are developments
of a given name which itself origin-
ated only a trifle prior to the period
in which our modern family name sys-
tent began to develop.
Most given names are of quite an-
cient origin, Exceptions are the names
that were developed in the Puritan
movement in England, and the entire-
ly modern method of turning a family
name into a given name. The vast
majority 'af the Puritan given names
have disappeared, however. Jordan,

But little of the open stat as like that.
The protessor described it as consist-
ing chiefly of great sea meadows
where young creatures can live and
feed in the easiest possible way. As
an example he cited a delicate little
animal that would be unable to live on
the seashore. • It feeds and moults and
then becomes a megalaps. It feeds
and moults again, and now begins to
look like a shore crab. So it tucks
its tail underneath, it and begins its
long journey over the sea meadow and
up the continental shelf to the shore.
The sea meadows, he explained, have
just about the depth of water that the
light of the sun can penetrate. When
there is plenty of light untold millions
of Infusoria and other drifting micro-
scopic creatures breed and multiply.
They furnish that to myriads of cope-
pods, .or water fleas -tiny insects at

found as a given name. mackerel, he said, is a particularly
clean -feeding fish and depends entire-
ly on the sea soup. In seasons when
the light is bad it is likely to starve.
The origin of this name is not so
easily guessed. One's teudeney Is to
attribute it to the river Jordan, and
then to decide that that is not logical,
and abandon the guess. The guess,
however, is correct. The story of
John the Baptist, involving the Jordan,
apparently was one of those in the
Bible which made the greatest impres-
sion on the medieval English mind.
Jud, like Jordie ar Geordie, is to -day
often used as a nickname for George,
but in the middle ages it was a varia-
tion of Jordan.
In the natural course of events the
-family names were formed in the
usual way, by the addition of the ter-
mination "son" or the prefixing of the
Norman-French "Fitz," which was a
corruption of the Latin 'callus" or son.
These prefixes and suffixes often have
been dropped in family names at later
periods.

"What does your mother call your

"She calls him my daddy."
"Yes, yes, I know; but when she
wants to speak to -him, what does she
say?"
"Oh, she says, '527, please,' " was
the child's reply.
"I don't mean when she calls him at
