Text

"Let the high endeavor of every good woman be to do her full duty to God, to society, to her family and to the commonwealth, in the great sphere in which God has placed her. Woman must do her work for her country as woman and not as a counterfeit man. We do not need her at the polls, but those who do go to the polls need a good mother's training and good home influence."
