The Story of Mother's Day

母亲节的故事

In the United States Mother's Day was first suggested in 1872 by Julia Ward Howe (who wrote the words to the Battle hymn of the Republic) as a day dedicated to peace. Ms. Howe would hold organized Mother's Day meetings in Boston, Mass ever year.

在美国， 1872年在茱丽亚·沃德·豪（她将这些建议写信给共和国战事赞美诗）建议下设立了母亲节。这一节日是为在战争中失去了亲人的母亲们而设的，纪念她们为和平所付出的牺牲。每逢这一天，豪小姐还会在波士顿举行母亲节的庆祝大会。
