Rinkhart *1586-1649) was a boy
chorister In the famous St. Thom
as Church where Bach was later
music director. He became pas-
tor of the Lutheran church at
Eilenberg. Saxony, and remain-
ed thert throughout the war.
Eilenberg was a walled town
so refugees crowed Into It. These
conditions brought famine and
disease. In 1637 as many as §000
are said <o have died af the pla-
que, among these Rinkhart'
wife. He was the only pastor
left in the town and buried over
4000 people. The village was
sacked three time* and Rinkhart
saved the town from excessive
tribute. Weak and prematurely
aged, he died shortly after the
war was ended. In spite of sll
this responsibility and tension he
was s prolific writer.
The English translation of this
hymn was made by Miss Gather
ine Winkworth <1829 1878 >
who** skill as s translator of
German into English is exemp-
lified in this hymn.
The tune. "Nun Banket A lie
Gott," was Included In Johann
Crueger"s "Praxis," 1648, arid
hymnic authorities credit Crat
er as its composer. Mendelssohn
used an alter form of the melody
in his "Hymn of Thanksgiving."
Bsch used It for a choral -cantata,
"Nun Danket Alie Gott," and also
for concluding chorales In a-
nother cantata.
Johann Crueger (1588-1662)
was bamnear Guhen. Prussia
He entered the University of

but left tt to become cantor of
St. Nicholas Church in Berlin
and to teach in the nearby Gym

HVINBOW,
merit came after Anderson and j
George W. Pfeiffenberger, execu
tive vice president of Plains Cot 1
ton Growers, Inc. returned this
week from a trip to the U S D A
Boll Weevil Research Laboratory
at State College, Mississippi
Anderson and Pfeiffenberger
agreed that the work being done
in Boll Weevil research at the
U S D A Laboratory does show
promise for the future, but that
it is still in the early stages and
offers no solution to the current
problem on the High Plains. "At
some time in the future," said
Anderson, "the scientists at the
laboratory may come up with
new techniques for boll weevil
control, but we cannot depend on
this hap[>ening in time to keep
boll weevils off the High Plains.
Anderson also reported that
officials at the Mississippi lab
oratory, which is headed hy Dr
Theodore B Davich. were in a
greement that the best known
control program for the weevils
is the "diapause" control pro-
gram which kills weevils in the
fall before they go into hiberna-
tion, thereby reducing infesta
tlons during the next growing
season Anderson and Pfeiffen
berger also conferred with Dr
James Brazzel of Mississippi
State College, who Is known as
the originator of the Diapause
control method, and Dr H. G
Johnston. Entomologist for the
National Cotton Council. Both of
these concurred that a diapause
program would be the best bet
The steering committee which
Anderson heads, along with
members of Plains Cotton Grow
ers' staff art scheduled to meet
with 116 member Boll Weevil
Eradication Technical Advisory
Committee- on November 26 to
lay more definite plans for com-
bating this threat to the High
Plains cotton industry Both Bra
I I7.eI and Johnston have agreed to
attend this meeting and will ar
rive a day or two early to study
the local situation
Anderson's steering committee
is made up of 13 farmers from
