German Translation, Please? :) Stadt Penig Notgeld

I'll do my best, but my best German is probably still quite defective.

For little tiny German towns, sometimes the German Wikipedia page is more informative than the English one.

In this case, you can see the picture of the Stadtkirche, "city church", which bears a strong resemblance to the building on the note.

As for the translations: the front will be declarations of validity: I believe it says: Issued on 6th February 1922, valid for use throughout the city until the 28th of February, when you need to exchange them at the council office.

The little poem on the back translates roughly to:

Till now, Penig has not joined
the strike that has brought ruin.

But now we too are out of ready cash,
Therefore we're issuing Notgeld.

It rhymes better in German, but you probably get the drift.

Looking at it more closely, there's more to the front than I first thought. The last word in the first sentence is Eisenbahnerstreik - "railway strike". This is no doubt the "strike" referred to in the poem on the back, and claimed to be the main motivation behind the town issuing notgeld.

Penig was a railway town (though Google Earth shows the lines through there are now derelict). A big railway strike like the one in Germany in February 1922 could have seriously hurt the local economy, thus causing the notgeld issue.
