rr rn rere ener “You Can’t Feel Com-| fortable With a Ghost; in Your Mind When You're Alone in a Dark Alley—i Shiver in My Boots When I Read of Them.” { Studying for His Part in “The Return of Peter; Grimm,” He Refused| to Read Books Treating | on Ghosts—Once, He Says, Fear of a Ghost Scared Him Stiff. BY CHARLES DAKNTON AVE you ever settled down to! H @ nice little chat about ghosts | on a night when the wind was shrieking, the shutters banging and | the.last log on the fire crumbling into a thin, gray arm of ashes? And have you noticed how far a whisper will go on a joyful occasion of that sort? At such a time it ts not only, impolite, it's dangerous, to whisper. The children bekin to cry, the dog knocks over the cider jug, getting its tall between its legs, and the jolly party is seized with a chill that al the ginger in the kitchen can’t abolish. Filled with these memories of a happy ehil@hood, I crept up the alley to a @ark “stage door and hurled "Ghosts!" at David Warfeld, the leading spirit in “The Return of Peter Grimm." At the sdund cf the word he dropped a piece of Cord, vut of which he was combing as fine a crop of side whiskers as any Duteh florist ever raised. Then he glanced over bis shoulder and laughed nervously. “Of course,” he explained, “1 don't! know much about ghosts. But if I ever saw one I think I'd dite. You can't feel comfortable with a ghost In your mind when you're alone or in @ dark alley. HE'S SCARED STIFF AT THE STORIES OF GHOSTS.
