Aunt Jemima' S Diet.

WHILE the rest Of the world may be
" counting its calories and eliminat-
ing everything but grapefruit from its
diet, Aunt Jemima (Tess Gardella)
famous blues singer of vaudeville and
radio fame, who is appearing at the
Loew's Fox Theater. watches the scales
soar higher and higher towards the
three hundred mark and grins in her
inimitable good-natured manner.
The popular vaudeville star and re-
cent "Queenie" of Ziegfleld's SHOW
Boat" just dotes on double portions of
chocolate fudge ice cream and cake
for dessert, and in between meals, when
she feels wee bit hungry.
Diet? Not on your life" is the
emphatic answer of the rotund singer.
In the first place. she admits, she is too
good a cook and too fond, furthermore
Of her own culinary connections. If all
the spaghetti she can eat in one meal
we're laid end to end, it would prob
ably measure miles, she says. Her
stews, when she is good and hungry,
are not made in ordinary kitchen uten-
sils, but are cooked in tremendous
kitchen pot made especially for that
purpose And the Italian bread sticks
with huge gobs of butter that she can
consume in a week. "Oh Boy" she
says with sigh.

0F all the many kinds of formed la
v Dor in the United States, one of
the most important is the use Of con-
victs. Its extent can be partially
grasped by looking at some official
and unofficial estimates Of the total
annual value Of merchandise made
in the prison factories, mills, shops,
and farms of the United States.
The figures issued by the United
States Bureau Of Labor Statistics in
1928 are still the most comprehensive
ever brought together According to
these estimates, the total value of
commodities produced in 1O4 state and
federal civilian prisons for adults in
1928 was 1882 1888. This estimate
does not include juvenile refonnator-
les, city or county prisons, federal
military prisons, or the maintenance
work-prison upkeep cleaning, laun-
dry repairs, cooking and so on-done
in every prison.
The latest estimates conserYatively
give the population of state and fed
eral prisons as 14O, 1000 on January /,
1882. 1t is estimated that at least
10000 OF these are productivity en-
ployed, as against slightly over 81 900
In 1928. Almost $4,000 of the 1881
prisoners we're employed at mainten-
ar1ce and the remainder we're either
not reported or were reported incap-
acttated or idle. The estimate made
by the Associated General Contractors
OF America at their San Francisco
convention in 1881, gave $4,000 as the
number Of employed convicts in 1890,
producing goods with market value
Of S1oo,00o,00O.
