For successively feeding bills or like sheets of paper into counting or like processing apparatus, first and second takeout rollers are rotatably mounted in parallel spaced relationship adjacent both lateral edges, respectively, of the sheets supported in position on the apparatus in neat arrangement. The entire circumferential surface of the first takeout roller is capable of frictional contact with the foremost one of the sheets, whereas only a portion of the circumferential surface of the second takeout roller is capable of frictional contact with the foremost sheet. The rotations of the first and second takeout rollers are interrelated in such a manner that the first takeout roller is caused to rotate in frictional contact with the foremost sheet to shift the same toward the second takeout roller before the said circumferential portion of the constantly rotating second takeout roller moves into frictional contact with the foremost sheet. Thus, each foremost one of the sheets, initially shifted slightly toward the second takeout roller by the first takeout roller, is succeedingly fed completely into the apparatus by the second takeout roller.
