"Old-fashioned" is the party theme. Serving dinner begins at 7 p.m., and a program will follow. it Happened In Washington By Mrs. Wallace F. Bennett It was a great thrill to be present pre-sent at the centennial celebration of the Inauguration of Abraham Lincoln. Ofttimes, I am content to stay at home and watch similar ceremonies cere-monies on TV rather than to fight through traffic and crowds. But this was different. Somehow, you needed to be there to catch the full significance of the occasion. The Sharpsburg Rifles, dressed in the Union blue, and sporting authentic-looking beards of 100 years ago, lined the steps of the Capitol. Their wives and children In costumes cos-tumes of the period sat on the inaugural in-augural stand. The crowd, estimated estimat-ed to be twice as large as the 10,000 who witnessed the original ceremony, was orderly and expectant. expec-tant. It contained many children, black as well as white. i I think Abraham Lincoln would have been pleased to have Sam Rayburn, Speaker of the House and son of a Confederate soldier, say that although his father did what he thought was right, in the end, he was glad that the Union was preserved. As white-haired Carl Sandburg, in a resonant and firm voice repeated re-peated again the words "Though passion may be strained, it must not break our bonds of affection," we all felt this was indeed sage advice for today, as well as for 100 years ago. When John Collison, portraying Abraham Lincoln, walked down the Capitol steps, our first sight of him was of his long legs. We knew who he was even before we saw his face and his tall stove-pipe hat. Sitting alongside the clicking TV cameras, and knowing that literally millions of people were watching the enactment of this drama, I couldn't help thinking of 100 years ago. when the telegraph went only as far a St. Joseph. Missouri, and it took 7 days and 17 hours by Pony Express for Lincoln's words to reach those living on thef West Coast. As the participants drove off in horse-drawn carriages, an airplane droned overhead. I couldn't help help wondering what the next 100 years will bring.
