"Lyric Religion" calls the
; hymn "A Peasant's Song of Har
I vest Gratitude, an instance of a
poem becoming a hymn without
any such intention on the au
thor's part" and says that "Paul
: Krdniann's Fest" is a long Ger
man poem of 17 stanzas by Clau
dius in 1782. It describes a
group of peasants gathering in
his kitchen at harvest time, to
make merry over the bountiful
results of their labors. They sing
* their praises to God. At its con-
clusion, they join Paul in drink
ing a toast to God. The last
four stanzas relate especially to
Paul, their host, and the occa
sion of the feast. This hymn is
a part of this poem.
Claudius was a German scho-
lar and newspaper man. the son

youth became more interested in
literature and law and associat-
ed with free-thinkers, losing most
of his belief in religion. After
a serious illness at 37 years, he
returned to his faith. Several
of his poems have appeared in
Lutheran hymn books.

It raises your pride and nCBS your pulse
Yon feel it the moment we turn
over the keys to you.
You now own the handsomest "hard-
top" around — a Ruiek Riviera — and
the warm glow goes all through yon.
But not alone for the racy beauty of
the ear.
Ym tee! that prideful surge, too, from
the fact that here you bought yourself
a whale of a lot of automobile — a
whale of a lot of room and power and
soft luxury and ride steadiness for a
lot less than yon expected.
For the automobile pictured here is a
Buiek Simci \i Riviera- which means
it delivers locally for just a few dollars
more than the "hardtop" models of
the "low-price three'*
Out it's only when you drive away in
your bounteous new beauty that the
real thrills begin and the satisfaction
deepens...
When the highest Fireball 8 power in
Buiek Sim ci \\ history whispers away
the miles with effortless ease ...
When Twin-Turbine Dynattow ' gives
you instant getaway response with
silken smoothness, and the Million
Dollar Ride levels every inch of your
way...
When the deep wide seats cradle yon

Surely you ought to look into this
great Buiek that's so prideful to own,
so thrilling to drive, so easy to buy.
We'll be happy to arrange a sampling.
