THE VALUE OF A PENNY
The lowly penny, the hundredth of
our American coins, is scarce worth
the rocm it takes in our pockets. It
can’t buy anything; it isn’t worth
saving. This is the belief of most of
us. Yet last year a company operat
ing those slot machines which ex
change a bit of chewing gum or a
bite of candy for a penny took 3,-
500,000,000 of these coins out of
the machines. Just stop for a mom
ent and think of it—3,500,000,000
coins, $35,000,000, gathered a penny
at a time. And of this amount more
than $10,000,000 represents profit.
The next time you are inclined to
look down on the copper cent just
remember that one of the biggest
business in this country has been
built on nothing larger than the
humble penny.
