Mary Pickford has scoied her greatest great-est triumphs on the screen in such productions of tho Famous Players Film company as "Madame Butterfly" and "Poor Little Pepplna," in both of which she has assumed the role of a victim of circumstances. In "The Eternal Grind," however, Miss Pick-ford Pick-ford plays a totally different role, certain cer-tain to become one of her most popular popu-lar Impersonations the capable, undaunted, powerful personality which! rises unflinchingly to meet cveiy IH crisis in a life of hardship. She is a - factory girl, one of whose sisters Is a H moral weakling and the other a l chronic invalid. Against the grasping M and brutal owner of the factory in U which she is employed,, against his m vicious young son who victimizes her M sister, the Indomitable will of the reso- M lute factory girl wages ceaseless war- m fare. It Is by far the greatest char- M acter which Miss Pickford has pre- mm scnted on tho screen and on in the ul- H timate triumph of which every real hu- M man heart will rejoice.
