劳动节

Labor Day is a national holiday in the United States.

It is celebrated on the first Monday in September.

It is a time for American workers to celebrate their efforts.

It is also when most Americans mark the end of the summer.

The holiday started in 1894.

The Central Labor Union in New York City campaigned for a day off for the working citizens" .

Working conditions were much harder back then and there were few holidays and times for rest.

Many people worked 12 hours a day, seven days a week.

The original Labor Day celebrations were street parades and festivals for workers and their families.

This became the pattern for Labor Day celebrations.
