He did that 'gunman' up like a streak of lightning. He didn't take a chance. Where he learned his play I can't think. There was a dash of his father in what he did. And he'd have got away with it if it hadn't been for the automatic from somewhere else. The 'gunman' drew on him first. That's clear. A dozen folk saw it. He'd boosted Alec and his dame in the dance, and stretched Maude on the floor.
The very worst thing that can happen to anybody is to be artificially boosted up into some place where he rattles. I hear a good deal about destiny. Some people seem to think destiny is something like a train and if we do not get to the depot in time our train of destiny will run off and leave us, and we will have no destiny. There is destiny that jar.
Searching about, she found a stout pole. With this she pried off a board from a window, then another and another. "Give me a lift," she said, raising one foot from the ground. Once boosted up she found that the window was not locked. The sash went up with a surprising bang, and the next instant she was inside and assisting Lucile to enter. The place had a hollow sound.
As the poilus did not show much grasp of this kind of "Francy", the doughboy boosted them to their feet, pointed to the rear, patted them on the back, and grinned with his wide mouth. "Good boy! Go home! American! American!" as if that was enough to make clear that the work of France in this war was done!
There don't seem any clear reason either. The only thing queer to me was Standing's 'get out. There was talk then when that happened along. But it was jest talk. Canteen talk. Something sort of happened. No one seemed rightly to know. They guessed Bat was a tough guy who'd boosted him out some way. Then I heard his wife had quit and he was all broke up.
He hobbled about, giggling at nothing and at peace with all the world. "It was a stirring scene," said Psmith. "The agility with which Comrade Jellicoe boosted himself down the shoot was a triumph of mind over matter. He seemed to forget his ankle. It was the nearest thing to a Boneless Acrobatic Wonder that I have ever seen." "I was in a beastly funk, I can tell you." Stone gurgled.
Father does not like any of us to speak of it, as he fears John and I will have our heads turned," returned Polly, sending a reproachful look at Eleanor. But Eleanor smiled with satisfaction, for she knew she had boosted Polly's value a thousand fold in Barbara's estimation. "Well, I'd sell out if it was me!
Indeed, one of the most enthusiastic Rotarians I ever met boosted the tenets of one-hundred-per-cent pep in a burr that smacked o' bonny Scutlond and all ye bonny braes o' Bobby Burns.
And after all, she was common stuff a farmer's daughter, bred at the National School. By taking her he would be making just a yokel of himself.... Yet was it worth clinging to his simulacrum of gentility boosted up by his father's title and a few dead rites, such as the late dinner which had impressed her so much.
Then he was joined by Joe, who had also observed Tresler's visit. The little man waved a hand in the direction of the retreating figure. "Wher's he goin'?" he asked. "Guess it's 'bout the leddy," replied Arizona, shortly. "An' he wus boosted out 'cause of her," the other said significantly. "Kind o' minds you of one o' them terriers." "Yup. Or a cow wi' a ca'f." "On'y he don't make no fuss.
