Tender Cuts Regardless of grade, some cuts of beef are naturally more tender than others. Cuts from the muscle along the back--rib, T-bone, porterhouse and sir­ loin--are the most tender and are easy to prepare.

Based on twin occupancy be sure that their children are checked in time. The number of preschoolers with vision problems is high ~ more than half a million. That is why one of the society's priority programs is preschool vision screening. "When our volun­ teers screen these children, we find about 5 percent with possible eye problems. They are immediately referred for p r o f e s s i o n a l e y e examinations," Mrs. Boyce said. Parents should also be alert to obvious signs of eye problems, at the preschool level and later on. Some of these are excessive rubbing or blinking, head tilting, redness, watering, recurring styes, or difficulty in close work or reading. Although it does not take the place of a professional examination, parents can obtain a home eye test for preschoolers to check the child at home. The test and in­ formative booklets on children's eyes can be obtained free by writing Prevent Blind- /O ' Preschooler-The Time For Eye Examination Parents of preschool children often take it for granted that if there is no apparent sign of an eye problem, their children's eyes are normal. "This is a dangerous fallacy," says Virginia S. Boyce, executive director of the National Society for the Prevention of Blindness. "In fact, even a child who is seeing with only one eye may appear to see well, and make no complaint." "The child has no way of knowing there is anything wrong with his eyes - he doesn't know there's any other way to see. Without outward 'danger signs', it's almost impossible to find such problems without testing," Mrs. Boyce said. No child is too young for a vision problem. The society recommends eye examinations shortly after birth, and again by the age of 4, and, of course, any time the parent suspects something is wrong. Eye disorders are most successfully treated in the earliest stages. Amblyopia - "lazy eye" - is one of the most serious childhood eye problems. Crossed eyes and other vision defects may lead to lazy eye, a condition where the child subconsciously gets used to seeing with only one eye. The unused eye weakens from disuse and without treatment, may not develop normal sight. The usual treatment is pat­ ching the good eye to force use of the weaker one. Since visual maturity takes place at 6 to 8 years, early detection and treatment by age 6 is vital since correction may be impossible later.
