It is apparent that the action in tort brought on behalf of the minor was necessarily inconsistent with the contract sued upon herein. In this connection the defendant calls our attention to Revel v. Pruitt, 42 Okla. 696, 142 P. 1019, wherein this court held that the bringing of an action by the father of a minor child as next friend would estop the father from subsequently maintaining an action to recover such damages for his own use. The case in some respects is similar to the fact situation here, but we observe in that case that the action on behalf of the minor was prosecuted to a final judgment on the merits.

(2) The court committed error in refusing to sustain and in overruling the demurrer of defendant at the close of all the evidence, for the reason that on the face of the record, the plaintiff's cause of action was barred by the five-year statute of limitations.
