A First World War Maori veteran, Tohu Adam Clark of North Hokianga, was honoured recently with the award of an R.S.A. Gold Star badge. Mr Clark is a foundation member of the Hokianga and North Hokianga associations, having 26 years' membership, including long service as an executive member. He has been a bushman and dairyfarmer in the districts but retired three years ago. He is the second Maori in New Zealand and the first in Northland to be honoured with a Gold Star. The investiture took place on Mr Clark's 75th birthday. Among his other community work, Mr Clark was an executive member of the Tautuiihiihi tribal centre (Kohukohu and Te Karae area) and the North Hokianga tribal committee for 25 years until 1959.
