dmits women, and the vast
majority of institutions of learning, except some of a religious
character, are co-educational. A few of the large eastern universities
still bar their doors but women have all needful opportunities for the
higher education. Some professional schools--law, medicine and
especially theology--are still closed to women but enough are open to
them to satisfy the demand, and the same is true of the technical
schools. To meet the lack of space every chapter had to be drastically
cut after it was in type.

Women now have in a general sense equality of rights, although in
every State they have learned or will learn that this is not literally
true and that further effort will be required, but now, as never
before, they are equipped for accomplishing it. It will be a long time
before they have equality of opportunity in the business and political
world but for the majority this will not be needed. Women will find,
however, that in the home, in club life and in all lines of religious,
philanthropic, educational and civic work the possession of a vote has
increased their influence and power beyond measure.
