The Origin of FATHER's Day

　父親節的由來

Mrs. John B Dodd, of Washington, first proposed the idea of a “father’s day” in 1909. Mrs. Dodd wanted a special day to honor her Father William, whose wife died while giving birth to their sixth child. Mr. Smart was left to raise the newborn and his other five children by himself on a rural farm in eastern Washington state. It was after Mrs. Dodd became an adult that she realized the strength and selflessness her father had shown in raising his children as a single parent.

華盛頓州的約翰·布魯斯·多德夫人在1909年首先提出了設立“父親節”的提議。多德夫人希望有一個特殊的日子來向她的父親———威廉·斯瑪特表示敬意。他的妻子在生他們第六個孩子時因難産而死。斯瑪特先生在華盛頓州東部鄉下的農場裡獨自養大了六個孩子。多德太太成人後她才意識到她的父親一個人養大孩子所表現的力量和無私。

The first Father’s Day was observed on June 19,1910 in Washington. And it was in 1966 that President Lyndon Johnson officially declared the 3rd Sunday of June as Father’s Day.

1910年的6月19日人們在華盛頓慶祝了第一個父親節。林登·約翰遜總統最終于1966年宣布每年六月的第3個星期天為父親節。

Father’s Day has become a day to not only honor your father, but all men who act as a father figure. Stepfathers, uncles, grandfathers, and adult male friends are all honored on Father’s Day.

父親節現在已經成為向父親及所有扮演父親角色的人表達敬意的節日。繼父，伯父，祖父所有成年男性都将在父親節受到尊敬。

FATHER，這6個字母背後都擔負着深刻含義：
