A ghost story is to be a Triangle-
Keystone comedy. Ford Sterling will
head the cast.
"One of the disadvantages of vaude
ville," observed Lillian Kingsbury, who
has just completed a season on the
Western circuit, "is that it entails an
obligation on my part to contribute lib
erally to the support of a large number
of inconsequential persons for which I
have no aftection whatever," which, all
things considered, is as good a defini
tion of the stage grafter as could be
given.
