Holidays Are Proclaimed by State Legislatures
No national holidays have ever been established by the action of congress. Although many of our holiday days have come to be considered national holidays, they are fixed by the individual state legislatures.
Other holidays which have come to be regarded as national holidays and are so observed are: New Year's day, Washington's birthday, Independence day and Christmas. Armistice day is observed in half of all states, legal holiday in all except Alabama, Wyoming and the Philippines.
Thankgiving comes the nearest to being a national holiday because it is established by presidential proclamation, and is observed by every state, territory and possession of the United States.
Most states have their one holiday peculiar to it. This day usually celebrates the admission of the state to the Union. Many of the southern states declare Confederate Memorial Day, which will agree, as to the invay of the year.
Lincoln's birthday is a legal holiday in 27 of the states. Good Friday, coming on April 6 this year is made a legal holiday in a few states and in Connecticut is provided by the governor as a day of fasting and praising.
Comparative to Washington's birthday is Rival day which Filipinos observe wherever they are.
