Now he finds him so far from being willing to pursue his own promising career, that he wishes to give up all thought of Paris and subordinate his genius to the task of boosting into fame the daughter of a poverty-stricken music-copyist! Leopold answers in the violent tone he could adopt on occasions, and tries to distract his son's attention by appealing to his ambition.
Ten chances to one the padrone has done as he agreed. I reckon you scared him enough for that. Now they're probably around with knives looking for napkins and sparkling red wine. I tell you, Parker, you're inviting trouble when you go to boosting up what you call the oppressed multitude." "That's a pretty hard view to take of the world and the people in it, Mr. Searles," replied the youth.
But it occurred to him that the boy might better appreciate a tale which involved his father, the Telly reporter, and some act of daring the small man had performed the better to serve his fracas-buff audience. He was well launched into the tale, boosting Freddy Soligen's part beyond reality, but not impossibly so, when that worthy entered the room, breaking it off.
Dick, too, soon had things moving at a gait that had all Gridley standing up and boosting with all the powers of lungs, hands and feet.

He thinks that the barrels and Tweel's race have a reciprocal arrangement like well, like bees and flowers on earth. The flowers give honey for the bees; the bees carry the pollen for the flowers.

All I know is that it's begun to get this place talked about. Why, you see for yourselves how it is.
Generally known as a loafer, suspected of boosting for so-called 'wire-tappers' operating on upper West Side last spring. Believed to have some connection with more than one blackmailing scheme details available. He figured in recent scandal concerning well-known financier and actress. Of late employed as steerer for Max Melcher's gambling-house, West Forty-sixth Street.
To show how far a child can travel in history with judicious and diligent boosting in the public school, we select the following mosaic: Abraham Lincoln was born in Wales in 1599. In the chapter headed "Intellectual" I find a great number of most interesting statements. A sample or two may be found not amiss: Bracebridge Hall was written by Henry Irving. Show Bound was written by Peter Cooper.
A gambler is a fool. More fun in a nickel earned than a dollar made at play or speculating." "So! You're one of these socialist cranks." Blake laughed outright. "It's the cranks that make the world go 'round! No; I've been too busy boosting for Number One like you to let myself think of the other fellow.
In the skating events, later on, Dick and his chums captured, for the freshman class, three of the eight events. From the start, Dick & Co. had shown great ingenuity in "boosting" football, in return for which, many of the usual restrictions on freshmen were waived where Dick & Co. were concerned.
