COIN IS NECESSARY

amazing use to which this little coin
is put The uses OF business require
the coinage of a greater number Of
nickels than OF any other coin.
1t has been said that its universal
use as the price of a fare on the street
cars is the cause of its retention. but
that can hardly be SO. as II enters
very largely into the price of SO many
other things that 1t could not be dis
pensed with II the price of the car
care were changed.
The nickel Is extensively used In
telephone calls. 1t was formerly more
than now the open sesame of the pop
ular slot machine. for which it still
does extensive duty. It Is the price
OF admission to the fast multiplying
picture shows in all parts of the coun-
try. The new fashioned boot shining
parlor charges a nickel. The saloon
keeper and the baker have for years
gathered their daily harvest of these
little coins. The soda fountain, grow
ing in popular favor. deals mostly in
nickels. Ice cream In summer time
goes for five cents. and the charge for
a myriad things in the pharmacy and
the five-cent store requires this coin.
Most smokers would have to quit
were 1t not for the nickel. obnoxious

Recently. however. the fact leaked
out that the five-cent piece or nickel
had been under discussion and that
the government might ask congress to
pass law eliminating 1t from the ma

would be taken. but for a short space

Ii Is probably not too much to say
that the disappearance of the nickel
would prove a greater shock to the
finances of the nation than almost
anything that could happen.
The five-cent coin for two genera
