Labour Day

The first Monday in September is Labour Day in the USA — a holiday of workers. Here is a short story of how it started.

On September 5, 1882 there was the first Labour Day march in New York. On that day 20,000 workers walked along Broadway with flags. They wanted to show how important working people are for the country. After the parade there were picnics all around the city. In 1894 the US Congress made it a national holiday.

Today most Americans believe that Labour Day marks the end of summer. They enjoy the last long weekend on the beaches and in the parks. School for children starts on Tuesday after Labour Day.
