Playing with Food INTRODUCTION [Illustration] In this DIRECTORY you'll see Just what you never ought to be; And so, it should Direct your way To Good Behavior, every day. The children of whose faults I tell Are known by other names, as well, So see that _you_ aren't in this group Of Naughty Ones. _Don't be a Goop_! MARMADUKE ARGYLL A Goop that always makes me smile Is this one: Marmaduke Argyll. His mouth is full from cheek to cheek, Why should he then attempt to speak? It makes me smile, but still, the fact is, It is a most unpleasant practice. [Illustration: Talking while Eating] NANCY BEAL On the sidewalk Nancy Beal Throws her old banana peel; Throws her apple skin and cores, Right in front of people's doors! Isn't that a shocking trick? Ask that Goop to stop it, quick! [Illustration: Throwing away Things] MASTER BILDAD
