Many will think that there were too many of them. Anyone who feared that the restrictions applied by the War Time Prices and Trade Board would leave women‘s dress drab and colourless, did not know women.. ‘They have accepted without a murmur every reasonable restrictionâ€"and some that may not appear so reasonable. It is true that the number of hues and shades were cut to a mere fraction of their former number but that has not daunted Dame Fashion. Colours enough remain to keep up the morale of the ladies, and through them to keep up the courage of the men. Of course, the necessities of war have taken away a large number of the former colours and hues and shades. According to all the experts and all the signs of the times Dame Fashion Uecrees colour for this spring. And Red is the big leader! After the darkâ€" ness and the drabness of the weary winter months, the mode is for gay colours. If one word could be used to describe the mode for 1942 it would be "eolour."

In showing what functional disorder is in everyday life, the professor of Medical Pathology, University of Paris, in Medical Press, states "During violent emotion, such as fear, there arises a series of changes in the body which in a few seconds transform an absolutely normal individual into ‘a very ill patient. The heart beats tumultuously, tongue, lips and lining of cheeks beâ€" come dry, the skin is covered with perâ€" spiration, there is a great desire to pass urine, stomach juice stops fiywing, there is diarrhoea, trembling of hands, However, physicians now know that functional disturbances can _ cause symptoms that upset the patient physiâ€" cally and mentally and patients with functional disturbances get the same attention as those with organic ail- ments. As students we were not greatly interested in functional disorders beâ€" cause as there was no ‘real‘ disease present, the patient was told that thoere was no cause for worry. An organic ailment, on the other hand, causes symptoms (because there is a change in the structure of the orâ€" gan). Thus distress in stomach caused by ulcer or a heart murmur due to a leaking valve are organic ailments. A functional ailment is where there is pain or other disturbance in an orâ€" gan or tissues and yet there is no change or disturbance in the structure of the organ or tissue. Thus as rapid beating of the heart or some distress in stomach could occur without any change in the structure of the heart or stomach, rapid heart beat and stomach distress would, in these cases be called functional ‘disorders.
