  We report measurements and analysis of the magnetic critical phenomena in a
single crystal of La${_{0.875}}$Sr${_{0.125}}$MnO${_3}$. The critical exponents
associated with the ferromagnetic transition have been determined from ac
susceptibility and dc magnetisation data. Techniques like the Kouvel$-$Fischer
plots, modified Arrots Plots and the critical isotherm analysis were used for
this purpose. The values of the the exponents $\gamma$, $\beta$ and $\delta$
obtained are found to match very well with those predicted for the 3D
Heisenberg model. Our results are consistent with recent numerical calculations
and suggest that though the double exchange interaction is driven by the motion
of conduction electrons, the effective magnetic interaction near the transition
is renormalized to a short range one.
