In fact when a "father’s day" was first proposed there were no Father’s Day cards!与广为流行的错误理解相反，将父亲节设立为一个节日的目的并不是为了帮助贺卡生产商们卖出更多贺卡。实际上，设立"父亲节"的提议被最初提出时，世界上并没有父亲节贺卡！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 Smart. William Smart, a Civil War veteran, was widowed when his wife (Mrs. Dodd’s mother) died in childbirth with 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.华盛顿的约翰·B·多德夫人最早于1909年提出了设立"父亲节"的建议。多德夫人希望能用一个特殊的日子向她父亲-威廉·斯玛特先生表示敬意。威廉·斯玛特是美国内战中的老兵，他妻子（即多德夫人的母亲）在生育第六个孩子时因难产而死，斯玛特先生从此成为鳏夫。他独自一人在华盛顿州东部的一个乡村农场上抚养新生的孩子及其他五个子女。直到长大成人，多德夫人才意识到她父亲在独自一人养育子女的过程中表现出来的坚强和无私。The first Father’s Day was observed on June 19, 1910 in Spokane Washington. At about the same time in various towns and cities across America other people were beginning to celebrate a "father’s day." In 1924 President Calvin Coolidge supported the idea of a national Father’s Day. Finally in 1966 President Lyndon Johnson signed a presidential proclamation declaring the 3rd Sunday of June as Father’s Day.1910年6月19日，人们在华盛顿州的斯波坎庆祝了第一个父亲节。当时，在约莫相同的时间里，美国各地其它城镇的人们也开始庆祝"父亲节"。1924年，卡尔文·柯立兹总统表示支持设立全国性的父亲节的建议。林登·约翰逊总统最终于1966年签署了总统公告，宣布每年六月的第3个星期天为父亲节。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 be honored on Father’s Day.现在，父亲节已成为人们向父亲和其他任何扮演父亲角色的男人表达敬意的节日。继父、叔父、伯父、祖父、外祖父以及所有的成年男性朋友们都是父亲节的主角。-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------父亲节的来历中文版：人们在庆祝母亲节的同时，并没有忘记父亲的功绩。1909年就开始有人建议确定父亲节。据说第一个提出这种建议的是华盛顿的约翰·布鲁斯·多德夫人。多德夫人的母亲早亡，其父承担起抚养教育孩子的重任，把他们培养成人。1909年，多德夫人感念父亲养育之恩，准备为他举行庆祝活动。她想到所有的父亲对家庭和社会的贡献，建议把6月的第三个星期日定为父亲节。1910年6月，人们庆祝了第一个父亲节。当时，凡是父亲已故的人都佩戴一朵白玫瑰，父亲在世的人则佩戴红玫瑰。这种习俗一直流传至今。1934年6月，美国国会统一规定6月的第三个星期日为父亲节。英文版：Father'*'s Day, contrary to popular misconception, was notestablished as a holiday in order to help greeting cardmanufacturers sell more cards.
