I would suggest that the stick holds a piece of chalk at the end, notice the lighter coloured tip.
The chalk was used to mark tires (tyres) and was used as an indicator to see if the vehicle had moved. It was in some areas used as a method of establishing length of time parked in an area and if needing a ticket for over staying one's welcome in that area. My suggestion / supposition.
