The youngest soldier in the British
army, Private Defries, aged foirteen
years and its months, is a fine child for
his age, Ho is close upon It feet 8
Inches in height, with a cheat measure
ment of 80 Inches, and weighs 126
pound*. K la no wonder, therefore,
that the military authorities should
have enlisted him without a demur
when he told them that ho was over
eighteen. His father now seeks to have
him discharged on account of his tender
years; but the war office, not unreason
ably, holds that the onus lies upon him
to provo that his son is the loans natnnn
he would mako him out. In other
words, the condition of his discharge is
the production of a certificate of age—
and very right.—London Globe.
