Fer-' People You Know On The Social Scene We know summer is really on its way when Journal-Standard news staffers begin taking vacations. The first to leave and return is the church editor, MISS GRACE BARNETT, who returned Monday from Nassau. Miss Barnett flew non-stop from Chicago to Miami and from there to Nassau, then came back, also by plane, via St. Petersburg. Her two most vivid impressions of Nassau were the "gorgeous displays of color and the PEACE, QUIET and NO BUSTLE." To a northerner, Miss Barnett says the vegetation looks as though it were at its height now, but the natives say their peak season is January and February.

Supplementing the colorful blooms and trees are homes, painted pastel blues and pinks, mostly pink, to ward off the sun's glare. Another striking characteristic is the extreme cleanliness of the streets. There are neither traffic policemen nor lights in Nassau, but our traveler says motorists do not exhibit the impatience of American drivers but wait quietly at intersections, and it seemed to her most of the traffic accidents occurred between bicyclists. And Miss Barnett was amused by the numerous signs posted on various facilities such as the telephone in the Royal Victoria Hotel where she stayed and the stamp machine in the government post office. The telephone bears this advice: "To call exchange, lift telephone and listen.

Replace telephone only when finished." And on the stamp machine, "Do not thump with fists on these machines because it breaks the cap and causes them to cease operation." But the story we like best is that of Nellie, a bay mare recognized by her grayed mane. She and her driver, Pop Austin, are rare personalities, and were written up a year ago in the Miami Herald. There are 30 horse-drawn surries on Nassau, but Nellie is the only one privileged to park in the daytime in front of the Royal Victoria. Nellie's church is St. Mathew's Episcopal.

When she stops, she bars all entrance into the gate, and Pop Austin says she won't budge until you visit church. 8 Another returned vacationist is MRS. EDWARD E. LAUGHLIN, 1316 W. Lincoln who got back Tuesday from a two-month stay at Hollywood, Fla.

Not exactly vacationists are CAPT. and MRS. ROBERT L. KINTZEL and their small son, JEFF, who are visiting their parents, MR. and MRS.

H. L. KINTZEL, 521 W. Dewey and MRS. LINDA MURRAY, 312 S.

State Ave. The Kintzels have been on Okinawa and in the Philippines for two years where Capt. Kintzel was stationed with the Army engineers. They lived on the base at Okinawa and were there during a terrible typhoon which kept them indoors for five days. In the Philippines they were stationed at Camp Cavite, across the bay from Manila.

Capt. Kintzel reports April 26 to Ft. Belvoir, Va. Sometime ago we ran a story on the 87th birthday celebration of JOHN TREPUS, 758 W. Moseley St.

Mr. Trepus received from Gov. William G. Stratton a congratulatory message reading in part, "I hope this note finds you in good health and that your birthday was a happy one. May God bless you in the years that lie Mr.

Trepus also received congratulations from persons he does not even know from as far away as Poughkeepsie, N. Y. Just back from a 10-week cruise in the Mediterranean area are MR. and MRS. W.
