Once
Birmingham
and
Sheffield
,
two
of
the
largest
towns
in
England
,
began
to
quarrel
.
The
quarrel
started
as
each
of
them
claimed
to
be
able
to
produce
the
most
skillful
piece
of
work
.
A
special
jury

to

show
the
greatest
skill
.
The

thin

The

It
was
as
small
as
a
pea
.
It
ran
about
on
the
table
as
if
it
were
alive
.
A
wonderful
mechanism
had
been
put
in
that
little
body
.
Everybody
was
sure
that
the
first
place
would
be
given
to
Sheffield
.
Then
a
sewing
needle

on

A
smile
appeared
on
the
lips
of
the
jury
when
the
needle

off

4

,
had

.
