Money and its uses

Shows how money is used in place of the exchange of goods and services. Illustrates early use of snake skins, claws, and fishhooks for barter. Demonstrates by contrast how a pig can be traded for a horse on the farm, but cannot be traded for a dress in town. Traces a marked dollar bill given by a newsboy to a storekeeper as it passes through many hands until it is finally returned to the newsboy by a housewife.
