Friday January 12,1906 Owing to the extreme heat which obtained on Friday evening the concert in aid of Goroke Horticultural Society was only sparsely attended. The performers had a hard task, but did remarkably well. Mr A. SCHINCKEL made an excellent chairman. Taken as a whole the performance was a good one. Mrs ACRES, from Melbourne, rendered some very fine violin selections. Miss McCLOUNAN'S singing was highly appreciated and Miss P.WALTER'S voice was very clear and her songs were well rendered. Miss BOEHM, a very young player, gave the audience a treat with her pianoforte selections. Mr J. CARROLL sang in his usual good style, and he received an encore. Mr J. O'DONNELL of Horsham was suffering from a cold, but was brought back. The gem of the evening was " All in the hush of twilight," by Miss E. JELBART, accompanied by Mrs. ACRES (violin obligato) and miss JELBART,(piano) The following is the programme Overture, Miss E. JELBART Song, Miss WALTERS Song (encore) Mr. O'DONNELL Violin selection, Mrs. ACRES and Miss JELBART Song Miss McCLOUNAN Song Miss E. JELBART Song Mr. G. H.
