be chosen by the govern<r to form the government — a gov ernment that would be re sponsible to the people for if it was not the people could re place it when the general elec tion came three bs there

the local school of nursing to admit gone on uninterrupted so irom the point of view of bermuda we have possessed a representative government from the inception of the col ony and like the bahamas and barbados this form of consti tution has gone on uninter rupted said mr francis he went on to explain that there were degrees of representative governments and in his opin ion th degree was decided on the question of how widely representative the government was . egro students that there are a certain number who are re luctant to study there under the renditions of separation which govmi the new
