The
Story of Mother's Day
母亲节的故事
Ms. Jarvis and her supporters began to write to ministers, businessman,
and politicians in their quest to establish a national Mother's
Day. It was successful as by 1911 Mother's Day was celebrated
in almost every state. President Woodrow Wilson, in 1914, made
the official announcement proclaiming Mother's Day as a national
holiday that was to be held each year on the 2nd Sunday of May.
佳维斯小姐和她的支持者开始写信给大臣们,商人,和政客,要求他们设立全国性的母亲节。到1911年的母亲节,他们的这一建议终于被采纳了,从此,全国都在这一天庆祝母亲节。伍德罗·威尔逊总统在1914年正式宣布,此后每一年五月的第二个星期天都是全国庆祝母亲节的日子。
