Jimmy Valentine figures in the prose
cution of Theodore M. Tobani jr., who
IS being tried in Long Island City on
the charge Of stealing $4,000 from the
Long Island City branch of the Title
Guarantee. and Trust Company. A
huge vault, which is fac-simile of the
one in use in the Long Island branch,
has been set up in the courtroom, and
safe experts will show how easy it is
to overcome timelocks, tons of steel
and intricate safety devices. Famil-

The money which Tobani is accused
Of taking was missed in July, 1921.

fifth Street, Manhattan, and said they
found six $1,000 bills in q laundry
hamper. Tobani insists he was

For bobbed hair that is very short
and thin there are transformations
that more than justify their name. A
fabric and the hair is sewed to it,
with part left at the side or the
center. When it is pinned on the head
the long strands Of hair may be taken
across to the hack and twisted into q
bun, the short ends of natural hair
may be curled and piled high at the
top and false curls may be added over
the cars. The result is the Grecian
coiifeur, which is guaranteed to give
height and dignity, besides effecting a
complete disguise for hirsute short
ccmings.
Three American coiffures were in
troduced at the exhibit on last night,

Buns AdUised for Penitent
Victims of Bob Hair Craze
Switches, Frizzes, Transformations, Puffs, Curls,
Combs and Even Ears Reappearng; Madame the
Hardresser Prepares to Get Gems Out Of Hook

Hairdressers who for the last three
years have been sitting back with
folded hands, while bobbed heads
tossed their defiance of hairpins,
switches and buns, are asserting them
selves again. The day of the short
skirt and close-cropped curls is gone,
and in its place has come an era of
high eoifures and intricate putfs that
should strike terror into the frivolous
hearts who succnmbed to the fashion
of short hair. There ia only one alter
native for such women, and the first
annual hairdressing and trade exhibi-
tion of the New York Ladies' Hair
dressers Assoc alton at the Hotel
Pennsylvania offers it-false hair.
The hair indorsed for the new sea-
son in coiffures does everything but
grow, 1t is curled, it is puffed, it is
swathed or twiried, and all ready to be
adjusted to the head by means of extra
long hairpins. For girls whose hair is
in the awkward stagesof growing in"
q bun is recommended, smooth cush-
ION of hair that is pinned to the back
OF the head. The short ends at the
sides are marcelled, drawn over the
ears, and concealed under the bun.
The top and back hair may be frizzed
and left wildly loose or it may be
deftly curled over the fingers and
pinned about the bun in imitation of a
cluster of grapes, with few tendrils
twining over the forehead.

Tod Would Force ALI
To Enter Ellis island
Urges Law Compelling Cabin
Passengers to Undergo
Quiz Before Entry

Commissioner Robert E, Tod, Of the
immigration service at Ellis Island,
would have all first and SECOND class
passengers entering the United States
pass through Ellis Island. He has
recommended two reforms in the i'm
migration laws to Secretary of Labor
Davis, he said yesterday. The first is
to have all persons, regardless of which
class they travel land first at the ISL
and, in order to make it impossible
for immigrants to elude the customs
officials at the docks or bribe their
way past the guards and customs men.
Commissioner Tod's second sugges-
ton is that ten per cent OF each ma
tion's quota of immigrants should be
brought in for each Of the first ten
months of the year, leaving the last
two months for clearing up doubtful
cases. This reform would greatly
tighten the work at Ellis Island, he
declared, and make for more dispatch
in handling individual cases.
