The Kin-der-Kids. The Kin-der-Kids relief expedition slams into a steeple, with results

Five-panel Sunday comic strip shows Augustus and Aunty in a hot air balloon in the clouds. The cat, who has joined them, comments on an approaching storm. As lightning crackles around them the balloon takes off, pitching the basket's occupants. The basket then rams into a church steeple, snagging it with it's anchor, and wrenches it from the building below. As the balloon and the steeple head out over open water, Aunty and Augustus realize there is a man in the steeple.
