We still have a lot more to do, all of us, to make welfare reform a success; providing child care, helping families move closer to available jobs, challenging more companies to join our Welfare to Work Partnership, increasing child-support collections from deadbeat parents who have a duty to support their own children.
With pain and labor, lifting one foot over the other, as a drummer handles his sticks, he took a few steps from his place, his motions and the deadbeat of the misshapen boots announcing to my practised eye and ear the malformation which is called in learned language talipes varus, or inverted club-foot. Stop! stop! I said, let me come to you.
It was always summer up here then, and the big chief chased the big game from one end of the year to another, from mountain to mountain and from river to sea. He killed the biggest moose with a blow of his fist, and caught whales with his crooked thumb for a hook. One long day in summer he'd had a tremendous chase after a wonderful bird, and he came home without it, deadbeat and out of temper.
It is not wise to allow the "deadbeat" the remittance man, the gaunt shepherd with his starving flocks and herds, the free selector on an arid patch, the drink shanty where the rouseabouts and shearers knock down their cheques, the race meeting where high and low, rich and poor, are filled with the gambler's ill luck fill the foreground of the picture of Australian life.

Nickie loved gaiety, waster and rapscallion as he was sunshine, colour, flowers, beautiful women, life, music and laughter shook passions loose within him. Another little kink in his brain might have made a poet of him, just as the smallest turn of chance might have made a deadbeat of almost any poet of parts. Mr.
"I knew you looked a deadbeat," he laughed, "but I'd no idea I was quite so bad. Anyhow, we'll get the stove lighted and some dry things on. The next question is what shall we have for supper?" "That's easy. Everything that's most tempting, and the whole of it." Shortly afterward they flung their boots and rent garments overboard and sat down to a feast.
But I am sick to death of this island, and long to be doing something. I am a man without a home, without ties, a wandering South Sea deadbeat no friends." "You must not say that," she said softly. "I am sure you have many friends. Just now you spoke of one José Otano."
