Customs Change But Carolinians Continue To Give Famous Parties By JULIA McNINCH SLEAR Time moves swiftly on-and cus toms change, but the one way of saying “Happy New Year” re mains the same. This week the words rang merrily throughout +he town at a dozen or more parae~ planned to celebrate the glorious peace-bringing 1946. For some Washington - North Carolinians it meant noisy affairs with gay bells ringing “out the Old and in the New” in midst of the din of horn blowing, singing, dancing and the pop-pop-pop df champagne as toasts w’ere drunk to Father Time. For others it meant a pleasant number of high teas - or the tradi little gatherings, with everyone do tional New Year At Homes. For still others there were intimate ing a bit of crystal gazing, trying to discern what the future holds for each and every one and the World! “Happy New Year” for some we know meant looking up at the old hall clock that has ticked off all the years that we can re member, and later walking through the “home-door” down the old town’s street with all its dear familiar faces. To the lovely young “debbies” this season will be re membered as a blaze of glory, sea soned with party food and bright ened with gift-bouquets, having ex ceeded anything like it since World War I, “they” say! Golden eggnog filled the wassail bowl and glasses were filled time and time again at the function giv en by Brig. General and Mrs. James Stevens Simmons in honor of Major Gen. and Mrs. George B. Lull, retiring Surgeon General who left today for Chicago. After 35 years in the Army, General Lull will bow out of the country’s serv ices to become executive secretary of the American Medical Associa tion. And as happiness is like circles which go out and out from a stone dropped in clear water, circles which could reach infinity if not stopped by prosaic dry land, so the Simmons radiated happiness to their friends that very cold and disagreeable dusk when they dis pensed frothy “nog” and other delicacies of the season. All of the upper echelons of Military, official and Residential Society were pres ent and one of the guests who has an eye for such, insisted that if all the gold braid that glittered in the very attractive home of the noted officer and his charming wife laid end to end it would reach around this drab old world a couple of times or two. General Simmons who is the Ar my’s chief of preventive medicine, will in a few months also be leav ing Washington, as he has accept ed an appointment to be dean at Harvard’s School of Public Health.
