The shamash (or helper) candle is used to light all the other candles.

As to why it's there, one thought is that if a candle blows out, you still have the required number. Also, it's the only candle that can be used in a practical sense, the others cannot be moved out of the menorah.

I see. that makes sense. Catholics do something smiliar with the advent candles in the wreath. They're usually lit from the altar candles. A variety of pagan beliefs also have something similar It's not too hard to see how various religions would evolve (or copy) something about candles. I always thought the menorah was a pretty display

Umm, I have a dreidel I can send you ...

PS: I love your icon!

Edited because I'm an idiot and put my comment in the wrong place.

haha i could probably hurt myself with the dreidel but as a diabetic it's about the only thing in that picture outside of the menora that I SHOULD have.

and that's okay. Thanks. Actually it's time to change to another holiday icon
