During the war period, and after, he rendered invaluable service as secretary of the local Patriotic League, his work on behalf of the returned soldiers being particularly praiseworthy. Mr Strouts nas also taken the keenest interest in amateur sport of every kind, and at present occupies the position of president of the Patea and District Amateur Athletic Association, the Patea Bowling and Coursing Clubs, besides being a prominent member of the Patea Sports Grounds Committee, Patea Domain Beard, and other local institutions. Mr Strouts' departure from the district will leave a gap that will be hard to fill.
