This same olf version also at- tracted the first intérnational atten- | tion to the Inte Harold Lockwood, who was Miss Pickford'’s leading man and the result was, he became ® prominent star in his own right soon afterwards. In the cast supporting “America's Sweetheart” in this second produc: tion of Grace, Miller White's great- est story are Loyd Hughes ani Gloria Hone, man and wife, and this is the first time they have ever played together in the same picture. Mr. Hughes 1s playing the role created by the lamented Lockwood | while Miss Hove has the important part of Teoln Graves. This is the first time John 8.
