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.

Columbus Day
On
the second Monday in October American people celebrate Columbus Day. As you
know, Columbus was an Italian explorer who discovered the New World in 1492.
Three hundred years later they organized a ceremony in New York City to
remember the discovery. First they called the new holiday Discovery Day and
celebrated it with parades, banquets [ˈbæŋkwɪts] and dances.
Later, in 1869, the holiday got a new name — Columbus Day. Not all Americans
like the idea of celebrating Columbus Day. For a lot of Native Americans
(Indians) the discovery of America by Europeans means the beginning of a very
sad period in their history.
