COUNTIES GAIN IN
POPULATION As CITIES LOSE

Families are leaving a number OF
cities in Michigan. but evidently they
aren't going far away, says the Mich
agan Department of Health. Study OF
preliminary 1910 census figures shows
that in several counties the chief cities
lost population yet the total for bht
county was higher than in 1910.
Migration of city workers to sub
urban areas explains the population
increases in such counties as MacOmf
and Oakland The same trend is evi
dent in the states second and third
largest cities. Grand Rapids lost %
ger cent Of its population in the last
ten years and Flint lost 3.3 per cent
Yet Kent county gamer ID per cent
In spite OF the Grand Rapids loss and
Genesee gained 7.5 per cent in spite OF
the drop in Flint Battle Greek, Kala-
SnazOO OwoSSO, IrOnwOOd and Niles
are other examples Of city Losses and
county gains.

Strange Wallpaper Seen
In New York Museum

Chinese, French, English and
American wallpapers of unusual
pattern. including hand-painted can
vases from the bathroom walls of
the Fifth avenue home of Cornelius
Vanderbilt, French paper from a
Newport, R. l., estate, are displayed
in representative exhibition of re-
cent accessions to the Cooper Union
Museum for the Arts of Decoration
in New York
American papers from block
prints of the early Nineteenth CEN
fury to the latest rotogravure types
are shown in addition to the extern
sive collection of American wall
paper on view at the museum.
The wall decorations for the Van
derbilt bathroom were designed and
painted on canvas in 1881 by Pierre
Victor Galland, foremost French
decorator of the Nineteenth century
and director of Gobelin, state sub
Sldized tapestry works in Paris.
Lavishly decorated with satyrs,
cherubs, nudes, ducks and scrolls, it
is painted in heavy browns and
reds. Vanderbilt, upon receiving the
imported masterpiece, had Amer
lean painters daub fecks of gold
paint over the surface because he
felt that the walls were too dark for
the room.

Tired of Cheap Guitars,
Youth Creates His Own

The ancient art of the violin max
er has been revived in a modern
sense by Charles w. Bakovich Of
Preston, Wash.
Bakovich, Is, who has been play
ing string instruments for Is years,
makes guitars.
Wait a minute. Before you pic.
ture the cigar box variety you see
in the hands of stage comedians,
take another look at Bakovich's
masterpiece.
You couldn't duplicate it in any
music shop and if you tried you
would spend about $425 getting
something like it. AS for this par
ticular one, you couldn't buy it from
him for 81 900.
Like the author who said when
he wanted to read a good book he
wrote one, it all started when Bako-
vich decided he wanted a good gui.
tar.
He was tired of playing cheap in
struments and didn't have the price
of a good one.
II think I'll make myself a good
one," he kept telling his friends, and
finally he talked himself into it.
1t took him ii months, but when
he got through, he had an inlaid
instrument with spruce top, birch
lining, curly maple neck, back and
sides, pine blocks, ebony keyboard,
rosewood bridge and walnut, ma
hogany, walnut and ebonized maple
inlay. He even gold-plated the met
al work himself, and cut out the
pearloid rest
But looks is only the first verse.
You should hear the tone. And hear
him play it, too. He isn't Dragging
when he says he can listen to Eddie
Peabody on the air, then immedi-
ately after play the same piece. If
you weren't looking you wouldn't
know which was which.
But to get back to instrument
making, Bakovich wasn't satisfied
with merely making the guitar. He
also made case for it, though he
had to try it twice before he got
one to suit him.
Now it's become a habit-or hob
by, rather. He has started two
more guitars. Says it's lots of fun,
and when he wearies of his exacting
task he gets his relaxation by pick
ing up his finished product and turn
ing out whatever kind of music hap
pens to suit his mood-classical, folk
songs or swing.

Donald Kennedy this week urged
Michigan municipalities TO hold

Kennedy explained the highway de

Among the features most common
IL mentioned and about which the de
tartment is most concerned are trees
placed in the middle of streets and
cOlOred light decorations"
The commissioner pointed out that
placing of trees i'm streets created an
unnecessary hazard, especially during
tine Christmas season when streets are
crowded with holiday shoppers, and
that they would definitely not be per
