RUSHDENROSE HILL SCHOOLA concert was given at the Temperance Hall, Rushden, on Friday the 28th ult., by the pupils of the above School. The admission was by ticket, and so great was the demand that numbers had to be refused, and the Hall was literally packed. The performance of the different pupils reflected the greatest credit on their teachers, especially as the recitations by the smallest children, as well as by those of rather riper years were given with a distinctness seldom heard. The musical part of the programme was rendered very nicely, the Misses B. Fisher, M. and L. Sanders, and L. Saxby, B. Skinner, N. Browning, and G. Peet being very correct, as was also Master Perkins and Miss Green's duet. The recitations of Miss E. Claridge and Master Knight were much admired, while little Miss Billingham was encored. Miss Webb's riddle was very curious, and Master Peet's "Buttery Dick" caused much amusement. "Dirty Jack," by Master Webb, was listened to with much attention. The cantata was a novelty, and appeared to be much enjoyed by the large audience. The following was the programme:
