F W B YEARS OLD TODAY
LONDON, Feb. 1«.— (U P )—
Master George Henry Hubert La-
seelles, a Jolly little fellow with
fair hair and aristocratic fea­
tures, Is celebrating his fourth
birthday today. He Is quite an
ordinary little youngster, except
that he Is the eldest son of Vis­
count Lstscelles and Princess
Mary, which means that some
day he will probably be the sixth
Earl of Harewood and one of
the wealthiest men in the Brit­
ish Isles.
Master George is a boy’s boy,
who loves to* run about bis
father’s stables and play in the
gardens and get himself all cov­
ered with dirt. His royal mother
though she may at times despair
as other mothers do, has seen
to that.
From his father, who Is heir to
one of the oldest and finest
estates In England, Master George
Is training to be n sportsman.
