The Ignorant Vote.

Statistics published by the National Bureau of Education show that
the high schools of every state in the Union are graduating more
girls than boys—some of them twice or three times as many. Because
of the growing tendency to take boys out of school early in
order to put them into business, girls are getting more schooling
than boys. Equal suffrage would increase the proportion of voters
who have received more than a merely elementary education.
