In our generation women have forced
their way into almost every department
OF life. After You have let them work in
your factories, in your fields and mines, in
your bars and workshops, in your gardens
and postoffices and counting houses, after
you have let them practice medicine and
study law, it is too late to turn back, or to
refuse them the rights of their new posi-
ton. Those who object to female suffrage,
who say that woman's sphere is the home,
should have kept her there. Too late to-
turn the key on her now-she is not at
home.
