Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
The question draws attention to traditions disappearing gradually, rather than ending in one decisive moment. Addressing Charlie Brown makes the observation conversational, while 'peculiar' gives it a note of puzzlement. Something assumed to endure is described as quietly slipping away.
