The paper left on a straw is typically referred to as a straw wrapper or straw sleeve. It is used to keep the straw clean and hygienic before use.
First you rip a small piece off of some paper product (napkin, computer paper, etc.). Then you wet it with spit and stick it in the end of a straw. Aim and blow!
Rubbing the straw with paper transfers some of the straw's electrons to the paper, giving them a negative charge. This creates a temporary imbalance of charges, making the straw attract the other straw that is neutrally charged.

A bedding of straw and newspaper will need changing once a week. Instead of straw, you could use wool, paper shredding or tissue paper. Instead of news paper you could use thin cardboard, scrap paper or sawdust.

When a straw is rubbed with a piece of paper, it acquires a positive charge due to the transfer of electrons from the paper. Two positively charged straws will repel each other. However, when a straw is rubbed with a sheet of paper, it acquires a negative charge, and opposite charges attract, resulting in the straws being attracted to each other.
The end of a straw wrapper that a waiter leaves on your straw is called a "flag." It helps to indicate that the straw is clean and has not been used by anyone else.
Any type of clean straw can be used. Many breeders use paper bedding with straw on the top to increase absorbtion. Personally, I use hay over paper.
