"Equal suffrage is not coming as the dawn follows night or the spring follows winter, in inevitable sequence. It is coming, but as the result of sustained, intelligent and consistent work, just as the harvest comes after the sowing, summer's care and cultivation, and the unflagging attention of the husbandman."

-Theodora Youmans (Daily Northwestern, 1916)
